Hosea 10
1 Israel is a luxuriant vine that puts forth his fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars. As their land has prospered, they have adorned their sacred stones.
Bujna je loza bio Izrael, rod bogat ona je nosila. I što mu je više rodilo plodova, to je više umnažao žrtvenike; što mu je bogatija zemlja bila, to je kićenije dizao stupove.
2 Their heart is divided. Now they will be found guilty. He will demolish their altars. He will destroy their sacred stones.
Srce je njihovo prijevarno, okajat će to oni! Porušit će im On žrtvenike, polomiti stupove njihove.
3 Surely now they will say, "We have no king; for we do not fear YHWH; and the king, what can he do for us?"
Kazat će tada: “Mi kralja nemamo jer se Jahve bojali nismo. TÓa čemu bi nam bio kralj?”
4 They make promises, swearing falsely in making covenants. Therefore judgment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of the field.
Riječi prosiplju, lažno se kunu, sklapaju saveze; a pravo cvate k'o otrovno bilje u brazdama polja.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria will be in terror for the calves of Beth Aven; for its people will mourn over it, Along with its priests who rejoiced over it, for its glory, because it has departed from it.
Za tele betavensko strepe stanovnici Samarije; da, zbog njega tuguje narod njegov, svećenici njegovi kukaju nad njim, nad slavom njegovom jer je od njega prognana.
6 It also will be carried bound to Assyria as tribute for a great king. Ephraim will receive shame, and Israel will be ashamed of his own counsel.
A njega samog odvući će u Asiriju na dar velikome kralju. Efrajima stid će spopasti, crvenjet će se Izrael zbog svoje odluke.
7 Samaria and her king float away, like a twig on the water.
Uništena je Samarija. Njen kralj tek trunak je vodi na površju.
8 The high places also of Beth Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed. The thorn and the thistle will grow on their altars. Then they will say to the mountains, "Fall on us." and to the hills, "Cover us."
Bit će razorene sramne uzvišice, grijeh Izraelov; trnje će i čičak rasti po žrtvenicima njihovim. Tad će govoriti brdima: “Pokrijte nas!” i bregovima: “Padnite na nas!”
9 "Israel, you have sinned from the days of Gibeah. There they remained. The battle against the children of iniquity doesn't overtake them in Gibeah.
Većma no u dane gibejske griješio si, Izraele! A da se i ondje zaustaviše, ne bi li ih zatekao rat kao bezakonike gibejske?
10 I am coming to discipline them; and the nations will be gathered against them, when they are disciplined for their two transgressions.
Kako mi se svidi, kaznit ću ih: sabrat će se protiv njih narodi da ih za dvostruko kazne bezakonje.
11 Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh; so I will put a yoke on her beautiful neck. I will set a rider on Ephraim. Judah will plow. Jacob will break his clods.
Efrajim je junica dobro naučena koja rado vrše; šiju ću joj lijepu ujarmiti, upregnut ću Efrajima. Juda će orati, Jakov branat'.
12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness. Break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek YHWH, until he comes and rains righteousness on you.
Sijte pravednost, požet ćete ljubav; krčite zemlje nove: vrijeme je da Jahvu tražite dok ne dođe i podaždi vam pravdom.
13 You have plowed wickedness. You have reaped iniquity. You have eaten the fruit of lies, for you trusted in your way, in the multitude of your mighty men.
Orali ste bezbožnost, želi bezakonje, jeli plod prijevare. Pouzdao si se u kola svoja i u mnoštvo svojih ratnika,
14 Therefore a battle roar will arise among your people, and all your fortresses will be destroyed, as Shalman destroyed Beth Arbel in the day of battle. The mother was dashed in pieces with her children.
zato će se vika bojna razlijegati tvojim gradovima i sve će ti tvrđe biti razorene k'o što Šalman razori Bet Arbel u dan ratni, kada mater smrskaše na sinovima.
15 So Bethel will do to you because of your great wickedness. At daybreak the king of Israel will be destroyed.
Evo što vam Betel učini jer ste u zlu ogrezli: u zoru će zavijek nestati kralja Izraelova!
