Hosea 6
1 "Come, and let us return to YHWH; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds.
In tribulatione sua mane consurgent ad me: Venite, et revertamur ad Dominum,
2 After two days he will revive us. On the third day he will raise us up, and we will live before him.
quia ipse cepit, et sanabit nos; percutiet, et curabit nos.
3 Let us acknowledge YHWH. Let us press on to know YHWH. As surely as the sun rises, YHWH will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth."
Vivificabit nos post duos dies; in die tertia suscitabit nos, et vivemus in conspectu ejus. Sciemus, sequemurque ut cognoscamus Dominum: quasi diluculum præparatus est egressus ejus, et veniet quasi imber nobis temporaneus et serotinus terræ.
4 "Ephraim, what shall I do to you? Judah, what shall I do to you? For your love is like a morning cloud, and like the dew that disappears early.
Quid faciam tibi, Ephraim? quid faciam tibi, Juda? misericordia vestra quasi nubes matutina, et quasi ros mane pertransiens.
5 Therefore I have cut them to pieces with the prophets; I killed them with the words of my mouth, and my judgment goes forth as the light.
Propter hoc dolavi in prophetis; occidi eos in verbis oris mei: et judicia tua quasi lux egredientur.
6 For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
Quia misericordiam volui, et non sacrificium; et scientiam Dei plus quam holocausta.
7 But they, like Adam, have broken the covenant. They were unfaithful to me, there.
Ipsi autem sicut Adam transgressi sunt pactum: ibi prævaricati sunt in me.
8 Gilead is a city of evildoers; it is stained with blood.
Galaad civitas operantium idolum, supplantata sanguine.
9 As gangs of robbers wait to ambush a man, so the company of priests murder in the way toward Shechem, committing shameful crimes.
Et quasi fauces virorum latronum, particeps sacerdotum, in via interficientium pergentes de Sichem: quia scelus operati sunt.
10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing. There is prostitution in Ephraim. Israel is defiled.
In domo Israël vidi horrendum: ibi fornicationes Ephraim, contaminatus est Israël.
11 "For you also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I restore the fortunes of my people.
Sed et Juda, pone messem tibi, cum convertero captivitatem populi mei.
