Hosea 14
1 O Israel, return unto the LORD thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.
Convertere Israel ad Dominum Deum tuum: quoniam corruisti in iniquitate tua.
2 Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive [us] graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.
Tollite vobiscum verba, et convertimini ad Dominum: et dicite ei: Omnem aufer iniquitatem, accipe bonum: et reddemus vitulos labiorum nostrorum.
3 Asshur shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, [Ye are] our gods: for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.
Assur non salvabit nos, super equum non ascendemus, nec dicemus ultra: Dii nostri opera manuum nostrarum: quia eius, qui in te est, misereberis pupilli.
4 I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.
Sanabo contritiones eorum, diligam eos spontanee: quia aversus est furor meus ab eis.
5 I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.
Ero quasi ros, Israel germinabit sicut lilium, et erumpet radix eius ut Libani.
6 His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
Ibunt rami eius, et erit quasi oliva gloria eius: et odor eius ut Libani.
7 They that dwell under his shadow shall return; they shall revive [as] the corn, and grow as the vine: the scent thereof [shall be] as the wine of Lebanon.
Convertentur sedentes in umbra eius: vivent tritico, et germinabunt quasi vinea: memoriale eius sicut vinum Libani.
8 Ephraim [shall say], What have I to do any more with idols? I have heard [him], and observed him: I [am] like a green fir tree. From me is thy fruit found.
Ephraim quid mihi ultra idola? ego exaudiam, et dirigam eum ego ut abietem virentem: ex me fructus tuus inventus est.
9 Who [is] wise, and he shall understand these [things]? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the LORD [are] right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.
Quis sapiens, et intelliget ista? intelligens, et sciet haec? quia rectae viae Domini, et iusti ambulabunt in eis: praevaricatores vero corruent in eis.
