< Hosea 2 >

1 Say vnto your brethren, Ammi, and to your sisters, Ruhamah,
Svojim bratom recite: ›Moje ljudstvo‹ in svojim sestram: ›Pomiloščena.‹
2 Plead with your mother: plead with her: for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband: but let her take away her fornications out of her sight, and her adulteries from betweene 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 strippe her naked, and set her as in the day that shee was borne, and make her as a wildernes, and leaue her like a drie land, and slaie her for 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 wil haue no pitie vpon her children: for they be the children of fornications.
Ne bom se usmilil njenih otrok, kajti oni so otroci vlačugarstev.
5 For their mother hath plaied the harlot: she that conceiued them, hath done shamefully: for shee said, I will goe after my louers that giue me my bread and my water, my wooll and my flaxe, mine oyle and my drinke.
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 beholde, I will stoope thy way with thornes, and make an hedge, that shee shall not finde her pathes.
Zatorej glej, tvojo pot bom ogradil s trnjem in naredil zid, da ne bo našla svojih steza.
7 Though shee follow after her louers, yet shall shee not come at them: though shee seeke them, yet shall shee not finde them: then shall she say, I will goe and returne to my first husband: for at that time was I better then nowe.
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 Nowe she did not knowe that I gaue her corne, and wine, and oyle, and multiplied her siluer and golde, which they bestowed vpon 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 wil I returne, and take away my corne in the time thereof, and my wine in the season thereof, and will recouer my wool and my flaxe lent, to couer her shame.
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 discouer her lewdnes in the sight of her louers, and no man shall deliuer her out of mine hand.
Sedaj bom odkril njeno nespodobnost pred očmi njenih ljubimcev in nihče je ne bo rešil iz moje roke.
11 I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast daies, her newe moones, and her Sabbathes, and all her solemne feasts.
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 wil destroy her vines and her figtrees, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards that my louers haue giuen mee: and I will make them as a forest, and the wilde beasts shall eate 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 wil visit vpon her the daies of Baalim, wherein shee burnt incense to them: and shee decked her selfe with her earings and her iewels, and shee folowed her louers, and forgate me, saith the Lord.
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 beholde, I will allure her, and bring her into the wildernesse, and speake friendly vnto her.
»Zatorej glej, jaz jo bom privabil in jo pripeljal v divjino in ji tolažilno prigovarjal.
15 And I will giue her her vineyardes from thence, and the valley of Achor for the doore of hope, and shee shall sing there as in the daies of her youth, and as in the daies when shee came vp 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 at that day, sayeth the Lord, thou shalt call me Ishi, 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 Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall be no more remembred by their names.
Kajti odstranil bom imena Báalov iz njenih ust in po njihovem imenu se jih ne bodo več spominjali.
18 And in that day wil I make a couenant for them, with the wilde beasts, and with the foules of the heauen, and with that that creepeth vpon the earth: and I will breake the bowe, and the sworde and the battell out of the earth, and will make them to sleepe 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 wil marry thee vnto me for euer: yea, I will marry thee vnto me in righteousnes, and in iudgement, and in mercy and in compassion.
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 I will euen marry thee vnto me in faithfulnes, and thou shalt knowe the Lord.
Zaročil te bom k sebi, celo v zvestobi in spoznala boš Gospoda.
21 And in that day I wil heare, saith the Lord, I will euen heare the heauens, and they shall heare 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 heare the corne, and the wine, and the oyle, and they shall heare Izreel.
in zemlja bo uslišala žito in vino in olje in ti bodo uslišali Jezreéla.
23 And I will sowe her vnto me in the earth, and I will haue mercie vpon her, that was not pitied, and I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people. And they shall say, Thou art 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.‹«
