< Hosea 8 >
1 “To your mouth—a horn, As an eagle against the house of YHWH, Because they transgressed My covenant, And against My law they have rebelled.
in gutture tuo sit tuba quasi aquila super domum Domini pro eo quod transgressi sunt foedus meum et legem meam praevaricati sunt
2 To Me they cry, My God, we—Israel—have known You.
me invocabunt Deus meus cognovimus te Israhel
3 Israel has cast off good, an enemy pursues him.
proiecit Israhel bonum inimicus persequetur eum
4 They have made kings, and not by Me, They have made princes, and I have not known, Their silver and their gold they have made to them idols, So that they are cut off.
ipsi regnaverunt et non ex me principes extiterunt et non cognovi argentum suum et aurum suum fecerunt sibi idola ut interirent
5 Your calf has cast off, O Samaria, My anger has burned against them; Until when are they not capable of purity?
proiectus est vitulus tuus Samaria iratus est furor meus in eis usquequo non poterunt emundari
6 For even it [is] of Israel; a craftsman made it, And it [is] not God, For the calf of Samaria is fragments!
quia ex Israhel et ipse est artifex fecit illum et non est Deus quoniam in aranearum telas erit vitulus Samariae
7 For wind they sow, and a windstorm they reap, Stalk it has none—a shoot not yielding grain, If so be it yield—strangers swallow it up.
quia ventum seminabunt et turbinem metent culmus stans non est in eis germen non faciet farinam quod si et fecerit alieni comedent eam
8 Israel has been swallowed up, Now they have been among nations, As a vessel in which is no delight.
devoratus est Israhel nunc factus est in nationibus quasi vas inmundum
9 For they have gone up [to] Asshur, A wild donkey alone by himself [is] Ephraim, They have hired lovers!
quia ipsi ascenderunt ad Assur onager solitarius sibi Ephraim munera dederunt amatoribus
10 Also though they hire among nations, Now I gather them, and they are pained a little, From the burden of a king of princes.
sed et cum mercede conduxerint nationes nunc congregabo eos et quiescent paulisper ab onere regis et principum
11 Because Ephraim multiplied altars to sin, They have been to him altars to sin.
quia multiplicavit Ephraim altaria ad peccandum factae sunt ei arae in delictum
12 I write for him numerous things of My law, As a strange thing they have been reckoned.
scribam ei multiplices leges meas quae velut alienae conputatae sunt
13 The sacrifices of My offerings! They sacrifice flesh, and they eat, YHWH has not accepted them, Now He remembers their iniquity, And inspects their sin, They return [to] Egypt.
hostias adfer adfer immolabunt carnes et comedent Dominus non suscipiet eas nunc recordabitur iniquitatis eorum et visitabit peccata eorum ipsi in Aegyptum convertentur
14 And Israel forgets his Maker, and builds temples, And Judah has multiplied cities of defense, And I have sent a fire into his cities, And it has consumed their palaces!”
et oblitus est Israhel factoris sui et aedificavit delubra et Iudas multiplicavit urbes munitas et mittam ignem in civitates eius et devorabit aedes illius
