Osee 13
1 According to the word of Ephraim he adopted ordinances for himself in Israel; and he established them for Baal, and died.
Kad Efraīms runāja, tad cēlās bailes; viņš augsti cēlās iekš Israēla, bet viņš noziedzās caur Baālu un mira.
2 And now they have sinned increasingly, and have made for themselves a molten image of their silver, according to the fashion of idols, the work of artificers accomplished for them: they say, Sacrifice men, for the calves have come to an end.
Un nu tie vēl vairāk grēko, un no sava sudraba tie sev taisa elku stabus, dievekļus pēc sava prāta; tas visnotaļ ir kalēju darbs; uz tiem šie runā, cilvēku upurētāji, tie skūpsta teļus.
3 Therefore shall they be as a morning cloud, and as the early dew that passes away, as chaff blown away from the threshing floor, and as a vapor from tears.
Tādēļ tie būs kā rīta mākoņi un kā rīta rasa, kas izzūd kā pelavas no klona, un kā dūmi no skursteņa top aizdzīti.
4 But I am the Lord your God that establishes the heaven, and creates the earth, whose hands have framed the whole host of heaven: but I showed them not to you that you should go after them: and I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and you shall know no God but me; and there is no Saviour beside me.
Bet Es esmu Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, kamēr no Ēģiptes zemes, un Dieva bez manis tu nepazīsti neviena, un Pestītāja bez Manis nav neviena.
5 I tended you as a shepherd in the wilderness, in an uninhabited land.
Es par tevi zināju tuksnesī, tai sausā zemē.
6 According to their pastures, so they were completely filled; and their hearts were exalted; therefore they forgot me.
Kad tiem bija ganība, tad tie pieēdās; kad tie bija pieēdušies, tad viņu sirds lepojās, tāpēc tie Mani aizmirsa.
7 And I will be to them as a panther, and as a leopard.
Tādēļ Es tiem paliku kā lauva, kā pardelis Es glūnēju uz ceļa.
8 I will meet them by the way of the Assyrians, as a she-bear excited, and I will rend the caul of their heart, and the lions' whelps of the thicket shall devour them there; the wild beasts of the field shall rend them in pieces.
Es tos sastapšu kā lācis, kam bērni laupīti, un saplosīšu viņu cieto sirdi, Es tos tur aprīšu kā lauva; tie zvēri virs zemes tos saplosīs.
9 O Israel, who will aid [you] in your destruction?
Tas tev par postu, Israēl, ka tu esi pret Mani, pret savu palīgu.
10 Where is this your king? let him even save you in all your cities: let him judge you, of whom you said, Give me a king and a prince.
Kur nu ir tavs ķēniņš? Lai tas tev palīdz visās tavās pilsētās! Un kur tavi tiesneši, par kuriem tu sacīji: dod man ķēniņu un virsniekus?
11 And I gave you a king in mine anger, and kept [him] back in my wrath.
Es tev devu ķēniņu savā dusmībā un to esmu atņēmis savā bardzībā.
12 Ephraim [has framed] a conspiracy of unrighteousness, his sin is hidden.
Efraīma noziegumi ir sakrāti, viņa grēki ir glabāti.
13 Pains as of a woman in travail shall come upon him: he is your wise son, because he shall not stay in the destruction of [your] children.
Viņam nāks dzemdētājas sāpes; viņš ir negudrs bērns, jo tas laikā neiet mātes ceļā.
14 I will deliver [them] out of the power of Hades, and will redeem them from death: where is your penalty, O death? O Hades, where is your sting? comfort is hidden from mine eyes. (Sheol h7585)
Es tos atpestīšu no elles, Es tos atsvabināšu no nāves. Nāve, kur ir tavs mēris, elle, kur ir tavs posts! Žēlums nebūs priekš Manām acīm. (Sheol h7585)
15 Forasmuch as he will cause a division among [his] brethren, the Lord shall bring upon him an east wind from the desert, and shall dry up his veins [and] quite drain his fountains: he shall dry up his land, and [spoil] all his precious vessels.
Lai viņš arī augļus nes brāļu vidū, bet rīta vējš nāks, Tā Kunga vējš celsies no tuksneša, un viņa aka izkaltīs, un viņa avots izsīks; šis laupīs mantu un visus dārgumus.
16 Samaria shall be utterly destroyed: for she has resisted her God; they shall fall by the sword, and their sucklings shall be dashed against the ground, and their women with child ripped up.
Samarija ies postā, jo tā savam Dievam ir turējusies pretī, tā kritīs caur zobenu, viņu bērni taps satriekti un viņu grūtās sievas taps uzšķērstas.
