Hosea 8
1 Put the trumpet to thy mouth! Like an eagle cometh an enemy against the house of Jehovah, Because they have transgressed my covenant, And have rebelled against my law.
in gutture tuo sit tuba quasi aquila super domum Domini pro eo quod transgressi sunt foedus meum et legem meam praevaricati sunt
2 They shall say to me, My God, we know thee, we, thine Israel!
me invocabunt Deus meus cognovimus te Israhel
3 Israel hath cast away what is good; The enemy shall pursue him.
proiecit Israhel bonum inimicus persequetur eum
4 They have set up kings, but not by me; They have made princes, and I knew it not. Of their silver and their gold have they made themselves idols, That they may be brought to destruction.
ipsi regnaverunt et non ex me principes extiterunt et non cognovi argentum suum et aurum suum fecerunt sibi idola ut interirent
5 An abomination is thy calf, O Samaria! Mine anger is kindled against them; How long will it be ere they can attain to purity!
proiectus est vitulus tuus Samaria iratus est furor meus in eis usquequo non poterunt emundari
6 For from Israel it came; The workman made it, and it is no God; Yea, into fragments shall the calf of Samaria be broken.
quia ex Israhel et ipse est artifex fecit illum et non est Deus quoniam in aranearum telas erit vitulus Samariae
7 They have sown the wind, And they shall reap the whirlwind. They shall have no standing harvest; The ear shall yield no meal; If perchance it yield, strangers shall devour it.
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 is swallowed up; Soon shall they become among the nations As a vessel which no one desireth.
devoratus est Israhel nunc factus est in nationibus quasi vas inmundum
9 For they have gone up to Assyria, Like a solitary wild-ass; Ephraim hireth lovers;
quia ipsi ascenderunt ad Assur onager solitarius sibi Ephraim munera dederunt amatoribus
10 But though they hire among the nations, Soon will I gather the nations against them; Then shall they rest a little while from the burden of their king, and their princes!
sed et cum mercede conduxerint nationes nunc congregabo eos et quiescent paulisper ab onere regis et principum
11 Ephraim hath built many altars for sin, Therefore shall he have altars for sin.
quia multiplicavit Ephraim altaria ad peccandum factae sunt ei arae in delictum
12 Though I write for him many laws, They are accounted as a strange thing;
scribam ei multiplices leges meas quae velut alienae conputatae sunt
13 As to the sacrifices which they should offer me, they slay flesh and eat it; Jehovah hath no pleasure in them. Now will he remember their iniquity, And punish their sins; To Egypt shall they return.
hostias adfer adfer immolabunt carnes et comedent Dominus non suscipiet eas nunc recordabitur iniquitatis eorum et visitabit peccata eorum ipsi in Aegyptum convertentur
14 For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and builded palaces, And Judah hath multiplied fenced cities; But I will send a fire upon his cities, And it shall devour his 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
