< Hosea 3 >
1 The Lord told me, “Go again and love a woman who is loved by another and who is committing adultery, just as the Lord loves the children of Israel, even though they turn to other gods and love their sensual worship.”
et dixit Dominus ad me adhuc vade dilige mulierem dilectam amico et adulteram sicut diligit Dominus filios Israhel et ipsi respectant ad deos alienos et diligunt vinacea uvarum
2 So I bought her back for fifteen shekels of silver and one and half homer of barley.
et fodi eam mihi quindecim argenteis et choro hordei et dimidio choro hordei
3 I told her, “You must remain with me for many days and you shall stop your prostitution. You shall not be intimate with any man, and then I shall be yours.”
et dixi ad eam dies multos expectabis me non fornicaberis et non eris viro sed et ego expectabo te
4 For the people of Israel shall be without a king or a prince, without a sacrifice or a stone pillar or a pagan image or an idolatrous shrine for a long time.
quia dies multos sedebunt filii Israhel sine rege et sine principe et sine sacrificio et sine altari et sine ephod et sine therafin
5 After this, the people of Israel will return and dedicate themselves to the Lord their God and to the line of David their king. In the last days they will come with awe and reverence for the Lord and his goodness.
et post haec revertentur filii Israhel et quaerent Dominum Deum suum et David regem suum et pavebunt ad Dominum et ad bonum eius in novissimo dierum
