Hosea 7
1 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.
When I would heal Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim is discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they practise falsehood; and the thief entereth in, [and] the troop of robbers assaileth without.
2 And not they say to heart their all evil their I remember now they have surrounded them deeds their before face my they are.
And they say not in their hearts [that] I remember all their wickedness: now do their own doings encompass them; they are before my face.
3 By evil their they make glad [the] king and by lies their princes.
They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
4 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.
They all practise adultery, as an oven heated by the baker: he ceaseth from stirring [the fire] after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.
5 [the] day of King our they became sick princes fever from wine he stretched out hand his with scorners.
In the day of our king, the princes made themselves sick with the heat of wine: he stretched out his hand to scorners.
6 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.
For they have applied their heart like an oven to their lying in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth like a flaming fire.
7 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.
They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
8 Ephraim among the peoples he he mixes himself Ephraim he has become a bread cake not turned over.
Ephraim, he mixeth himself with the peoples; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
9 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.
Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth [it] not; yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, and he knoweth [it] not.
10 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.
And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face; and they do not return to Jehovah their God, nor seek him for all this.
11 And he has become Ephraim like a dove silly there not [is] heart Egypt they have called Assyria they have gone.
And Ephraim is become like a silly dove without understanding: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
12 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.
When they go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowl of the heavens; I will chastise them, according as their assembly hath heard.
13 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.
Woe unto them! for they have wandered from me; destruction unto them! for they have transgressed against me. And I would redeem them; but they speak lies against me.
14 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.
And they cried not unto me in their heart, when they howled upon their beds; they assemble themselves for corn and new wine; they have turned aside from me.
15 And I I instructed [them] I strengthened arms their and against me they plot evil.
I have indeed trained, I have strengthened their arms, but they imagine mischief against me.
16 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.
They return, [but] not to the [Most] High: they are like a deceitful bow. Their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
