Hosea 2
1 Say unto your brethren Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah.
Svojim bratom recite: ›Moje ljudstvo‹ in svojim sestram: ›Pomiloščena.‹
2 Plead with your mother, plead; for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband: and let her put away her whoredoms from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts;
Pravdajte se s svojo materjo, pravdajte, kajti ona ni moja žena niti jaz nisem njen soprog. Naj torej odloži svoja vlačugarstva iz svojega pogleda in svoja zakonolomstva izmed svojih prsi,
3 lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her as a dry land, and slay her with thirst.
da je ne bom slekel do golega in jo postavil kakor na dan, ko je bila rojena in jo naredil kakor divjino in jo postavil kakor suho deželo in jo pogubil z žejo.
4 And I will not have mercy upon her children; for they are the children of whoredoms.
Ne bom se usmilil njenih otrok, kajti oni so otroci vlačugarstev.
5 For their mother hath played the harlot; she that conceived them hath done shamefully: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give [me] my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and my drink.
Kajti njihova mati je igrala pocestnico. Ta, ki jih je spočela, je storila sramotno, kajti rekla je: ›Hodila bom za svojimi ljubimci, ki mi dajejo moj kruh in mojo vodo, mojo volno in moj lan, moje olje in mojo pijačo.‹
6 Therefore behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns; and I will fence [her] in with a wall, that she shall not find her paths.
Zatorej glej, tvojo pot bom ogradil s trnjem in naredil zid, da ne bo našla svojih steza.
7 And she shall pursue after her lovers, and shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, and shall not find them: and she shall say, I will go and return to my first husband, for then was it better with me than now.
Sledila bo za svojimi ljubimci, toda ne bo jih dohitela in iskala jih bo, toda ne bo jih našla. Tedaj bo rekla: ›Šla bom in se vrnila k svojemu prvemu soprogu, kajti takrat je bilo z menoj bolje kakor sedaj.‹
8 And she did not know that I had given her the corn and the new wine and the oil, and had multiplied to her the silver and gold, which they employed for Baal.
Kajti ni vedela, da sem ji jaz dajal njeno žito, vino, olje in množil njeno srebro in zlato, ki so ga pripravili za Báala.
9 Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in the time thereof, and my new wine in its season, and will withdraw my wool and my flax which should have covered her nakedness.
Zatorej se bom vrnil in odvzel svoje žito ob njegovem času in svoje vino v njegovem obdobju in nazaj bom dobil svojo volno in svoj lan, izročen, da pokrije njeno nagoto.
10 And now will I discover her impiety in the sight of her lovers, and none shall deliver her out of my hand.
Sedaj bom odkril njeno nespodobnost pred očmi njenih ljubimcev in nihče je ne bo rešil iz moje roke.
11 And I will cause all her mirth to cease: her feasts, her new moons, and her sabbaths! and all her solemnities.
Prav tako bom vsemu njenemu veselju povzročil, da bo prenehalo, njenim prazničnim dnevom, njenim mlajem, njenim šabatom in vsem njenim slovesnim praznikom.
12 And I will make desolate her vine and her fig-tree, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards which my lovers have given me; and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them.
Uničil bom njene trte in njena figova drevesa, o katerih je rekla: ›To so moje nagrade, ki so mi jih dajali moji ljubimci.‹ Jaz pa jih bom naredil za gozd in živali polja jih bodo jedle.
13 And I will visit upon her the days of the Baals, wherein she burned incense to them, and decked herself with her rings and jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, saith Jehovah.
Na njej bom obiskal dneve Báalov, na katere jim je zažigala kadilo in se krasila s svojimi uhani in svojimi dragocenostmi in hodila za svojimi ljubimci, mene pa pozabila, « govori Gospod.
14 Therefore behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak to her heart.
»Zatorej glej, jaz jo bom privabil in jo pripeljal v divjino in ji tolažilno prigovarjal.
15 And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
Jaz ji bom od tam dal njene vinograde in dolino Ahór za vrata upanja in ona bo tam prepevala kakor v dneh svoje mladosti in kakor na dan, ko je prišla gor iz egiptovske dežele.
16 And it shall be in that day, saith Jehovah, [that] thou shalt call me, My husband, and shalt call me no more, Baali;
In zgodilo se bo tisti dan, « govori Gospod, » da me boš klicala: ›Ishi‹ in ne boš me več klicala: ›Báali.‹
17 for I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name.
Kajti odstranil bom imena Báalov iz njenih ust in po njihovem imenu se jih ne bodo več spominjali.
18 And I will make a covenant for them in that day with the beasts of the field, and with the fowl of the heavens, and the creeping things of the ground; and I will break bow and sword and battle out of the land; and I will make them to lie down safely.
Na ta dan bom zanje sklenil zavezo s poljskimi živalmi, s perjadjo neba in s plazečimi stvarmi zemlje. Prelomil bom lok, meč in bitko z zemlje in storil jim bom, da se varno zleknejo.
19 And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; and I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in loving-kindness, and in mercies;
In zaročil te bom k sebi za vedno. Da, zaročil te bom k sebi v pravičnosti, v sodbi, v ljubeči skrbnosti in v milostih.
20 and I will betroth thee unto me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know Jehovah.
Zaročil te bom k sebi, celo v zvestobi in spoznala boš Gospoda.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear, saith Jehovah, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth;
Zgodilo se bo na tisti dan; uslišal bom, « govori Gospod, »uslišal bom nebo in to bo uslišalo zemljo
22 and the earth shall hear the corn, and the new wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jizreel.
in zemlja bo uslišala žito in vino in olje in ti bodo uslišali Jezreéla.
23 And I will sow her unto me in the land; and I will have mercy upon Lo-ruhamah; and I will say to Lo-ammi, Thou art my people; and they shall say, My God.
Posejal si jo bom na zemlji in usmilil se bom nje, ki ni dosegla usmiljenja in rekel bom tistim, ki niso bili moje ljudstvo: ›Vi ste moje ljudstvo.‹ In oni bodo rekli: › Ti si moj Bog.‹«
