Hosea 9
1 Rejoice not, O Israel for ioy as other people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God: thou hast loued a rewarde vpon euery corne floore.
Noli lætari Israel, noli exultare sicut populi: quia fornicatus es a Deo tuo, dilexisti mercedem super omnes areas tritici.
2 The floore, and the wine presse shall not feede them, and the newe wine shall faile in her.
Area et torcular non pascet eos, et vinum mentietur eis.
3 They wil not dwel in the Lordes lande, but Ephraim will returne to Egypt, and they will eate vncleane things in Asshur.
Non habitabunt in terra Domini: reversus est Ephraim in Ægyptum, et in Assyriis pollutum comedit.
4 They shall not offer wine to the Lord, neither shall their sacrifices be pleasant vnto him: but they shall be vnto them as the bread of mourners: al that eate thereof, shalbe polluted: for their bread for their soules shall not come into the house of the Lord.
Non libabunt Domino vinum, et non placebunt ei: sacrificia eorum quasi panis lugentium. Omnes, qui comedent eum, contaminabuntur: quia panis eorum animæ ipsorum, non intrabit in domum Domini.
5 What wil ye do then in the solemne day, and in the day of the feast of the Lord?
Quid facietis in die sollemni, in die festivitatis Domini?
6 For loe, they are gone from destruction: but Egypt shall gather them vp, and Memphis shall burie them: the nettle shall possesse the pleasant places of their siluer, and the thorne shall be in their tabernacles.
Ecce enim profecti sunt a vastitate: Ægyptus congregabit eos, Memphis sepeliet eos: desiderabile argentum eorum urtica hereditabit, lappa in tabernaculis eorum.
7 The daies of visitation are come: the daies of recompence are come: Israel shall knowe it: the Prophet is a foole: the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of thine iniquitie: therefore the hatred is great.
Venerunt dies visitationis, venerunt dies retributionis: scitote Israel stultum prophetam, insanum virum spiritualem, propter multitudinem iniquitatis tuæ, et multitudinem amentiæ.
8 The watchman of Ephraim shoulde bee with my God: but the Prophet is the snare of a fouler in all his waies, and hatred in the House of his God.
Speculator Ephraim cum Deo meo: propheta laqueus ruinæ factus est super omnes vias eius, insania in domo Dei eius.
9 They are deepely set: they are corrupt as in the daies of Gibeah: therefore he will remember their iniquitie, he will visite their sinnes.
Profunde peccaverunt, sicut in diebus Gabaa: recordabitur iniquitatis eorum, et visitabit peccata eorum.
10 I found Israel like grapes in the wildernes: I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the figge tree at her first time: but they went to Baal-Peor, and separated themselues vnto that shame, and their abominations were according to their louers.
Quasi uvas in deserto inveni Israel: quasi prima poma ficulneæ in cacumine eius vidi patres eorum: ipsi autem intraverunt ad Beelphegor, et abalienati sunt in confusionem, et facti sunt abominabiles sicut ea, quæ dilexerunt.
11 Ephraim their glorie shall flee away like a birde: from the birth and from the wombe, and from the conception.
Ephraim quasi avis avolavit, gloria eorum a partu, et ab utero, et a conceptu.
12 Though they bring vp their children, yet I will depriue them from being men: yea, woe to them, when I depart from them.
Quod et si enutrierint filios suos, absque liberis eos faciam in hominibus: sed et væ eis cum recessero ab eis.
13 Ephraim, as I sawe, is as a tree in Tyrus planted in a cottage: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murtherer.
Ephraim, ut vidi, Tyrus erat fundata in pulchritudine: et Ephraim educet ad interfectorem filios suos.
14 O Lord, giue them: what wilt thou giue them? giue them a baren wombe and drie breasts.
Da eis Domine. Quid dabis eis? Da eis vulvam sine liberis, et ubera arentia.
15 All their wickednesse is in Gilgal: for there doe I hate them: for the wickednesse of their inuentions, I will cast them out of mine House: I will loue them no more: all their princes are rebels.
Omnes nequitiæ eorum in Galgal, quia ibi exosos habui eos: propter malitiam adinventionum eorum de domo mea eiiciam eos: non addam ut diligam eos, omnes principes eorum recedentes.
16 Ephraim is smitten, their roote is dried vp: they can bring no fruite: yea, though they bring foorth, yet will I slaie euen the dearest of their bodie.
Percussus est Ephraim, radix eorum exsiccata est: fructum nequaquam facient. Quod et si genuerint, interficiam amantissima uteri eorum.
17 My God will cast them away, because they did not obey him: and they shall wander among the nations.
Abiiciet eos Deus meus, quia non audierunt eum: et erunt vagi in nationibus.
