Hosea 14
1 [You people of] Israel, return to Yahweh our God. You are being punished because of the sins which you have committed.
Obratiž se, ó Izraeli, cele k Hospodinu Bohu svému, nebo jsi padl příčinou nepravosti své.
2 So now return to Yahweh and say [MTY] this to him: “Forgive us for all the sins that we have committed, and kindly accept (us/our sacrifices) in order that we may thank/praise you [IDM].
Vezměte s sebou slova, a obraťte se k Hospodinu, a rcete jemu: Sejmi všelikou nepravost, a dej to, což dobrého jest, a budemeť se odplaceti volky rtů našich.
3 [We admit that] Assyria will not save us, and our war horses will not save us, either. We will never again say, ‘You are our gods’ to [the idols that] we [SYN] have made. You are the one who acts mercifully to orphans.”
Assurť nemůže zachovati nás, na koních nepojedeme, aniž díme více dílu rukou našich: Bůh náš; nebo v tobě smilování nalézá sirotek.
4 [Yahweh says, “If they say that to me, ] I will forgive them for having (turned away from/abandoned) me, and I will love them with all my inner being, because I [PRS] will have stopped being angry with them.
Uzdravím odvrácení jejich, budu je milovati dobrovolně; nebo odvrácen bude hněv můj od nich.
5 I will be to the people of Israel like dew [that refreshes the soil]. When I do that, they will [become as delightful as] [MET] lilies are when they are blooming. [No one will be able to conquer them; ] they will be [as unmovable as] [SIM] the roots [of cedar trees].
Budu jako rosa Izraelovi, zkvetne jako lilium, a hluboce vpustí kořeny své jako Libán.
6 [Their good influence will spread] like [MET] the branches of a tree. They will be like [SIM] beautiful olive trees, and [they will be as delightful as] [SIM] the aroma of the cedar [trees in] Lebanon.
Rozloží se ratoléstky jeho, a bude jako oliva okrasa jeho, a vůně jeho jako Libánská.
7 People will [come to them to be protected] [like people are protected from the hot sun by being] [MET] in the shade [of a tree]. They [will (flourish/be strong) like] [SIM] grain that grows well. They will [be successful like] a vineyard [in which grapes grow abundantly]. They will become as famous/well-known as [SIM] the wines from Lebanon.
Ti, kteříž by seděli pod stínem jeho, navrátí se, oživou jako obilé, a pučiti se budou jako kmen vinný, jehož památka bude jako vína Libánského.
8 [You people of] Israel, do not [RHQ] have anything more to do with idols; if you [get rid of your idols], I will answer your [prayers] and take care of you. I am like [MET] a strong/green pine tree, and your blessings come from me.”
Efraime, což jest mi již do modl? Já vyslýchati, a patřiti budu na tě; já jsem jako jedle zelenající se, ze mneť ovoce tvé jest.
9 Those who are wise will understand the things [about which I have written]. Those who think well will pay careful attention to them. The things that Yahweh wants us to do [MET] are right; righteous people will conduct their lives adhering to them. But those who rebel against Yahweh will be ruined.
Kdo jest moudrý, porozuměj těmto věcem, a rozumný poznej je; nebo přímé jsou cesty Hospodinovy, a spravedliví choditi budou po nich, přestupníci pak na nich padnou.
