< Hosea 7 >
1 When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without.
Kad Es Israēli dziedināšu, tad Efraīma noziegums taps atsegts un Samarijas ļaunums, jo tie dara viltību; zagļi ir iekšā, un laupītāji ārā.
2 And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face.
Un tie nedomā savā sirdī, ka Es visu viņu ļaunumu pieminu. Bet nu viņu darbi apmetās pret tiem, tie ir Manā priekšā.
3 They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
Ar savu ļaunumu tie iepriecina ķēniņu un lielkungus ar saviem meliem.
4 They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.
Tie visi ir laulības pārkāpēji, tie ir kā ceplis, kurināts no cepēja, kas mīklu samīcījis, mitējās kurināt, kamēr tā ir uzrūgusi.
5 In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with the poison of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners.
Mūsu ķēniņa dienā lielkungi paliek vāji no vīna karstuma; viņš sniedz savu roku smējējiem.
6 For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
Jo tie ar savu sirdi dodās uz viltību kā ceplī. Viņu cepējs guļ cauru nakti, rītā viņš deg kā uguns liesmās.
7 They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
Tie visi ir iekarsuši kā ceplis un aprij savus tiesnešus, visi viņu ķēniņi krīt, neviens no tiem mani nepiesauc.
8 Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
Efraīms jaucās ar tautām, Efraīms ir rausis, ko neapgriež.
9 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not.
Sveši norij viņa spēku, un viņš to nemana, arī sirmums viņam ir uznācis, un viņš to neatzīst.
10 And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to Yhwh their God, nor seek him for all this.
Un Israēla gods dod liecību pret viņa vaigu, bet tie neatgriežas pie Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, un tomēr viņu nemeklē.
11 Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
Jo Efraīms ir kā nejēdzīgs balodis bez prāta; Ēģipti tie piesauc, pie Asura tie staigā.
12 When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard.
Kad tie nu tā staigā, tad Es Savu tīklu pār tiem izpletīšu, Es tos nometīšu(lejā) kā putnus apakš debess, Es tos pārmācīšu, tā kā ir sludināts viņu draudzei.
13 Woe unto them! for they have fled from me: destruction unto them! because they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
Vai tiem! Jo tie bēg no Manis; posts pār viņiem! Jo tie ir noziegušies pret Mani. Es tos gan gribētu atpestīt, bet tie runā melus pret Mani.
14 And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for grain and wine, and they rebel against me.
Un tie Mani nepiesauc no sirds, kad tie kauc uz savām gultām. Tie sapulcējās labības un vīna dēļ bet Man tie turas pretī.
15 Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me.
Gan Es tos pamācu un stiprināju viņu elkoņus, bet tie domā ļaunu pret Mani.
16 They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
Tie griežas, bet ne uz to, kas augšā; tie ir kā viltīgs stops; viņu lielkungi kritīs caur zobenu viņu trakās mēles dēļ; tas būs viņu apsmiekls Ēģiptes zemē.
