< Hosea 1 >

1 [I am] Hosea, the son of Beeri. Yahweh gave me these messages [at various times] during the years that Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were the kings of Judah, and Jeroboam the son of Jehoash was the King of Israel.
Слово Господне, еже бысть ко Осии сыну Веириину, во днех Озии и Иоафама, и Ахаза и Иезекии царей Иудиных, и во дни Иеровоама сына Иоасова царя Израилева.
2 When Yahweh first [began to] give messages to me [to tell to the people of Israel], he said to me, “Go and marry a prostitute. But [some of] her children will be born as a result of her having sex with men to whom she is not married. That will illustrate how the people of Israel have turned away from me and worship (idols/other gods).”
Начало словесе Господня ко Осии. И рече Господь ко Осии: иди, поими себе жену блужения, (и роди) чада блужения: понеже блудящи соблудит земля от Господа.
3 So I married Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim. She became pregnant and gave birth to my son.
И иде и поя Гомерь дщерь Девилаимлю: и зачат и роди ему сына.
4 Yahweh said to me, “Give him the name Jezreel, [which means ‘God scatters’], because I will soon punish the descendants [MTY] of [King] Jehu [by scattering them], because he killed many of my people at Jezreel [town]. [Some day] I will end the kingdom of Israel,
И рече Господь к нему: прозови имя ему Иезраель: зане еще мало, и отмщу кровь Иезраелеву на дому Иудове и упокою царство дому Израилева:
5 by destroying the power [MTY] of [the army of] Israel in Jezreel Valley.”
и будет в той день, сокрушу лук Израилев во удоле Иезраелеве.
6 [Later] Gomer became pregnant [again], and she gave birth to a daughter. Yahweh said to me “Give her the name Lo-ruhamah, [which means ‘not loved],’ because I will no longer [show that I] love the people [MET] of Israel, and I will not forgive them [for the sins that they have committed].
И зачат еще и роди дщерь. И рече ему (Господь): прозови имя ей Непомилована: зане не приложу ксему помиловати дому Израилева, но противляяся возсопротивлюся им:
7 But I will [show that I] love the people [MTY] of Judah [by saving them from their enemies]. However, it will not be by weapons and armies or horses and chariots that I will save them. Instead, it will be by [the power that I], Yahweh their God, [have].”
сыны же Иудины помилую и спасу я о Где Бозе их: и не спасу их луком, ни мечем, ни бранию, ни коньми, ниже конниками.
8 After Gomer had (weaned/stopped breast-feeding) Lo-ruhamah, she became pregnant again, and she gave birth to another son.
И отдои Непомилованную: и зачат паки и роди сына.
9 Yahweh said “Give him the name Lo-ammi, [which means 'not my people', ] because the people of Israel are no [longer my people], and I am not their God.
И рече (Господь): прозови имя ему Не Людие Мои: зане вы не людие Мои, и Аз несмь Бог ваш:
10 But [some day] the people of Israel will be [as numerous] as [SIM] the [grains of] sand on the seashore; no one will be able to count them. Now [I] am saying to them, ‘You are not my people,’ but then people will say to them, ‘[You are the] children of God who is all-powerful.’
и будет число сынов Израилевых аки песок морский, иже не измерится, ни изочтется: и будет, на месте, на немже речеся им: не людие Мои вы: сии тамо прозовутся сынове Бога живаго.
11 [At that time], the people of Judah and the people of Israel will unite. They will appoint one leader for all of them, and they will return from the countries [to which they have been (exiled/forced to go)]. That will be a great time; Jezreel [also means ‘God plants’, and it will be as though God will plant them in this country again].”
И соберутся сынове Иудины и сынове Израилевы вкупе, и поставят себе власть едину, и изыдут от земли, яко велик день Иезраелев.
