Osee 6

1 In their affliction they will seek me early, saying, Let us go, and return to the Lord our God; for he has torn, and will heal us; he will strike, and bind us up.

١ هَلُمَّ نَرْجِعُ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ ٱفْتَرَسَ فَيَشْفِينَا، ضَرَبَ فَيَجْبِرُنَا.

2 After two days he will heal us: in the third day we shall arise, and live before him, and shall know [him]:

٢ يُحْيِينَا بَعْدَ يَوْمَيْنِ. فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ يُقِيمُنَا فَنَحْيَا أَمَامَهُ.

3 let us follow on to know the Lord: we shall find him ready as the morning, and he will come to us as the early and latter rain to the earth.

٣ لِنَعْرِفْ فَلْنَتَتَبَّعْ لِنَعْرِفَ ٱلرَّبَّ. خُرُوجُهُ يَقِينٌ كَٱلْفَجْرِ. يَأْتِي إِلَيْنَا كَٱلْمَطَرِ. كَمَطَرٍ مُتَأَخِّرٍ يَسْقِي ٱلْأَرْضَ.

4 What shall I do to you, Ephraim? What shall I do to you, Juda? whereas your mercy is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew that goes away.

٤ «مَاذَا أَصْنَعُ بِكَ يَا أَفْرَايِمُ؟ مَاذَا أَصْنَعُ بِكَ يَا يَهُوذَا؟ فَإِنَّ إِحْسَانَكُمْ كَسَحَابِ ٱلصُّبْحِ، وَكَالنَّدَى ٱلْمَاضِي بَاكِرًا.

5 Therefore have I mown down your prophets; I have slain them with the word of my mouth: and my judgement shall go forth as the light.

٥ لِذَلِكَ أَقْرِضُهُمْ بِٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ. أَقْتُلُهُمْ بِأَقْوَالِ فَمِي. وَٱلْقَضَاءُ عَلَيْكَ كَنُورٍ قَدْ خَرَجَ.

6 For I will [have] mercy rather than sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than whole burnt offerings.

٦ «إِنِّي أُرِيدُ رَحْمَةً لَا ذَبِيحَةً، وَمَعْرِفَةَ ٱللهِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مُحْرَقَاتٍ.

7 But they are as a man transgressing a covenant:

٧ وَلَكِنَّهُمْ كَآدَمَ تَعَدَّوْا ٱلْعَهْدَ. هُنَاكَ غَدَرُوا بِي.

8 there the city Galaad despised me, working vanity, troubling water.

٨ جَلْعَادُ قَرْيَةُ فَاعِلِي ٱلْإِثْمِ مَدُوسَةٌ بِٱلدَّمِ.

9 And your strength [is that] of a robber: the priests have hid the way, they have murdered [the people of] Sicima; for they have wrought iniquity in the house of Israel.

٩ وَكَمَا يَكْمُنُ لُصُوصٌ لِإِنْسَانٍ، كَذَلِكَ زُمْرَةُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ يَقْتُلُونَ نَحْوَ شَكِيمَ. إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ صَنَعُوا فَاحِشَةً.

10 I have seen horrible [things] there, [even] the fornication of Ephraim: Israel and Juda are defiled;

١٠ في بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ رَأَيْتُ أَمْرًا فَظِيعًا. هُنَاكَ زَنَى أَفْرَايِمُ. تَنَجَّسَ إِسْرَائِيلُ.

11 begin together grapes for yourself, when I turn the captivity of my people.

١١ وَأَنْتَ أَيْضًا يَا يَهُوذَا قَدْ أُعِدَّ لَكَ حَصَادٌ، عِنْدَمَا أَرُدُّ سَبْيَ شَعْبِي.
