Hosea 8
1 Set the trumpet to your mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of the LORD, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law.
In gutture tuo sit tuba quasi aquila super domum Domini: pro eo quod transgressi sunt fœdus meum, et legem meam prævaricati sunt.
2 Israel shall cry unto me, My God, we know you.
Me invocabunt: Deus meus cognovimus te Israel.
3 Israel has cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him.
Proiecit Israel bonum, inimicus persequetur eum.
4 They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.
Ipsi regnaverunt, et non ex me: principes exstiterunt, et non cognovi: argentum suum, et aurum suum fecerunt sibi idola, ut interirent:
5 Your calf, O Samaria, has cast you off; mine anger is kindled against them: how long will it be before they attain to innocence?
proiectus est vitulus tuus Samaria, iratus est furor meus in eos. Usquequo non poterunt emundari?
6 For from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
Quia ex Israel et ipse est: artifex fecit illum, et non est Deus: quoniam in aranearum telas erit vitulus Samariæ.
7 For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it has no stalk; the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.
Quia ventum seminabunt, et turbinem metent: culmus stans non est in eo, germen non faciet farinam: quod et si fecerit, alieni comedent eam.
8 Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.
Devoratus est Israel: nunc factus est in nationibus quasi vas immundum.
9 For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim has hired lovers.
Quia ipsi ascenderunt ad Assur, onager solitarius sibi: Ephraim munera dederunt amatoribus.
10 Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.
Sed et cum mercede conduxerint nationes, nunc congregabo eos: et quiescent paulisper ab onere regis, et principum.
11 Because Ephraim has made many altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin.
Quia multiplicavit Ephraim altaria ad peccandum: factæ sunt ei aræ in delictum.
12 I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing.
Scribam ei multiplices leges meas, quæ velut alienæ computatæ sunt.
13 They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat it; but the LORD accepts them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
Hostias offerent, immolabunt carnes, et comedent, et Dominus non suscipiet eas: nunc recordabitur iniquitatis eorum, et visitabit peccata eorum: ipsi in Ægyptum convertentur.
14 For Israel has forgotten his Maker, and builds temples; and Judah has multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
Et oblitus est Israel Factoris sui, et ædificavit delubra: et Iudas multiplicavit urbes munitas: et mittam ignem in civitates eius, et devorabit ædes illius.
