Hosea 7

1 When I was about to deliver my people from captivity, When I would have healed Israel, Then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, And the wickedness of Samaria; For they practise fraud, And the thief entereth in, And the band of robbers spoileth without.

When heal I Israel and it is revealed [the] iniquity of Ephraim and [the] evil deeds of Samaria for they do falsehood and a thief he comes it attacks a marauding band in the street.

2 And they think not in their hearts, That I remember all their wickedness. Now shall their doings encompass them; They are before my face.

And not they say to heart their all evil their I remember now they have surrounded them deeds their before face my they are.

3 With their wickedness they gladden the king, And with their falsehoods the princes; All of them are adulterers;

By evil their they make glad [the] king and by lies their princes.

4 They are as an oven heated by the baker; He ceaseth to stir the fire, Until the dough which he hath kneaded be leavened.

All of them [are] adulterers like an oven burning from a baker [who] he ceases stirring up from kneading [the] dough until is leavened it.

5 On the feast-day of our king, the princes are sick with the heat of wine, And he stretcheth out his hand with revilers.

[the] day of King our they became sick princes fever from wine he stretched out hand his with scorners.

6 For they make ready their heart like an oven, while they lie in wait; All night the baker sleepeth; In the morning it gloweth like a flaming fire.

For they have brought near like oven heart their in ambush their all the night [is] sleeping baker their morning it [is] burning like a fire of flame.

7 They all glow as an oven; They have devoured their judges; All their kings have fallen; And none among them calleth upon me.

All of them they are hot like oven and they devour rulers their all kings their they have fallen there not [is one who] calls among them to me.

8 Ephraim hath mixed himself with the nations; Ephraim is a cake not turned.

Ephraim among the peoples he he mixes himself Ephraim he has become a bread cake not turned over.

9 Strangers have devoured his strength, And he knoweth it not; Yea, gray hairs are sprinkled upon him, Yet he knoweth it not.

They have consumed strangers strength his and he not he knows also gray hair it has sneaked in on him and he not he knows.

10 The pride of Israel testifieth to his face; Yet do not they return to Jehovah their God, Nor seek him, for all this.

And it testifies [the] pride of Israel in face its and not they have returned to Yahweh God their and not they have sought him for all this.

11 Ephraim is like a silly dove, without understanding; They call upon Egypt; they go to Assyria.

And he has become Ephraim like a dove silly there not [is] heart Egypt they have called Assyria they have gone.

12 When they go, I will spread my net over them; As birds of heaven will I bring them down. I will chastise them, as hath been proclaimed in their congregation.

Just when they will go I will spread over them net my like [the] bird[s] of the heavens I will bring down them I will chasten them according to a report to assembly their.

13 Woe to them, for they have wandered from me! Destruction upon them, for they have rebelled against me! Though I myself would redeem them, they speak falsely to me.

Woe! to them for they have fled from me devastation [belongs] to them for they have transgressed against me and I I will redeem them and they they have spoken on me lies.

14 They cry not to me from their heart, But howl upon their beds; For corn and wine they assemble themselves; They rebel against me.

And not they have cried out to me with heart their if they wail on beds their on grain and new wine they assemble themselves they turn aside against me.

15 I have chastened them; I have also strengthened their arms; Yet do they devise evil against me.

And I I instructed [them] I strengthened arms their and against me they plot evil.

16 They return, but not to the Most High; They are like a deceitful bow; Their princes shall fall by the sword for the haughtiness of their tongues; This shall be their reproach in the land of Egypt.

They turn - not height they have become like a bow of slackness they will fall by the sword leaders their from [the] indignation of tongue their this [will be] mockery their in [the] land of Egypt.
