Osee 3

1 And the Lord said to me, Go yet, and love a woman that loves evil things, an adulteress, even as the Lord loves the children of Israel, and they have respect to strange gods, and love cakes of dried grapes.

Un Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: noej atkal, mīli vienu sievu, kas top mīlēta no sava drauga un tomēr pārkāpj laulību, tā kā Tas Kungs Israēla bērnus mīl, bet tie griežas pie citiem dieviem un iemīl vīna ogu raušus.

2 So I hired [her] to myself for fifteen [pieces] of silver, and a homer of barley, and a flagon of wine.

Un es to sev pirku par piecpadsmit sudraba gabaliem un pusotru omeru miežu.

3 And I said to her, You shall wait for me many days; and you shall not commit fornication, neither shall you be for [another] man; and I [will be] for you.

Un es uz viņu sacīju: daudz dienas tu man sēdēsi un nedzīsi maucību, nedz būsi pie vīra: tāpat es turēšos pret tevi.

4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an altar, and without a priesthood, and without manifestations.

Jo Israēla bērni paliks ilgu laiku bez ķēniņa un bez valdītāja un bez upura un bez altāra un bez plecu segas(efoda) un bez tēliem.

5 And afterward shall the children of Israel return, and shall seek the Lord their God, and David their king; and shall be amazed at the Lord and at his goodness in the latter days.

Pēc tam Israēla bērni atgriezīsies un meklēs To Kungu, savu Dievu, un Dāvidu, savu ķēniņu, un nāks bīdamies pie Tā Kunga un pie Viņa žēlastības pēdīgās dienās.
