Hosea 9
1 Don’t rejoice, Israel, to jubilation like the nations; for you were unfaithful to your God. You love the wages of a prostitute at every grain threshing floor.
Ne raduj se, Izrailju, veseleæi se kao narodi, što se kurvaš otstupivši od Boga svojega, miluješ platu kurvarsku po svijem gumnima žitnijem.
2 The threshing floor and the wine press won’t feed them, and the new wine will fail her.
Gumno i kaca neæe ih hraniti, i mast æe ih prevariti.
3 They won’t dwell in the LORD’s land; but Ephraim will return to Egypt, and they will eat unclean food in Assyria.
Oni neæe nastavati u zemlji Gospodnjoj; nego æe se vratiti Jefrem u Misir, i oni æe jesti neèistotu u Asirskoj.
4 They won’t pour out wine offerings to the LORD, neither will they be pleasing to him. Their sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat of it will be polluted; for their bread will be for their appetite. It will not come into the LORD’s house.
Neæe prinositi Gospodu vina, niti æe mu biti ugodne žrtve njihove, nego æe im biti kao hljeb onijeh koji tuže, ko ga god jede oskvrniæe se, jer im je hljeb za žrtve njihove, neæe uæi u dom Gospodnji.
5 What will you do in the day of solemn assembly, and in the day of the feast of the LORD?
Šta æete èiniti na dan svetkovine i na dan praznika Gospodnjega?
6 For, behold, when they flee destruction, Egypt will gather them up. Memphis will bury them. Nettles will possess their pleasant things of silver. Thorns will be in their tents.
Jer gle, otiæi æe pustošenja radi; Misir æe ih pribrati, Memfis æe ih pogrepsti; zaklade njihove od srebra naslijediæe kopriva, trnje æe im biti u šatorima.
7 The days of visitation have come. The days of reckoning have come. Israel will consider the prophet to be a fool, and the man who is inspired to be insane, because of the abundance of your sins, and because your hostility is great.
Doðoše dani pohoðenju, doðoše dani plaæanju; poznaæe Izrailj; proroci su ludi, bezumni su u kojima je duh, za mnoštvo bezakonja tvojega i veliku mržnju.
8 A prophet watches over Ephraim with my God. A fowler’s snare is on all of his paths, and hostility in the house of his God.
Stražar je Jefremov s Bogom mojim, prorok je zamka ptièarska po svijem putovima njegovijem, mržnja je u domu Boga njegova.
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah. He will remember their iniquity. He will punish them for their sins.
Duboko su se pokvarili kao u vrijeme Gavajsko; opomenuæe se bezakonja njihova, i pohodiæe grijehe njihove.
10 I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness. I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the fig tree at its first season; but they came to Baal Peor, and consecrated themselves to the shameful thing, and became abominable like that which they loved.
Naðoh Izrailja kao grožðe u pustinji; vidjeh oce vaše kao prve smokve na drvetu u poèetku njegovu; oni otidoše k Velfegoru, i odvojiše se za sramotom, i postaše gadni kako im bješe milo.
11 As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird. There will be no birth, no one with child, and no conception.
Jefremova æe slava odletjeti kao ptica od roðenja i od utrobe i od zaèetka.
12 Though they bring up their children, yet I will bereave them, so that not a man shall be left. Indeed, woe also to them when I depart from them!
Ako li i othrani sinove svoje, ja æu ih uèiniti da budu bez djece, da ne ostane nijedan; i teško njima kad otstupim od njih.
13 I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a pleasant place; but Ephraim will bring out his children to the murderer.
Jefrem, kad ga gledah, bješe kao Tir, posaðen na ljupku mjestu; ali æe Jefrem izvesti krvniku sinove svoje.
14 Give them—LORD what will you give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
Podaj im, Gospode; šta æeš im dati? podaj im utrobu pometljivu i dojke usahle.
15 “All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I hated them. Because of the wickedness of their deeds, I will drive them out of my house! I will love them no more. All their princes are rebels.
Sva je zloæa njihova u Galgalu; zato ondje mrzim na njih; za zloæu djela njihovijeh izagnaæu ih iz doma svojega; neæu ih više ljubiti: svi su knezovi njihovi odmetnici.
16 Ephraim is struck. Their root has dried up. They will bear no fruit. Even though they give birth, yet I will kill the beloved ones of their womb.”
Udaren bi Jefrem; korijen im posahnu, neæe roditi roda; ako i rode, ubiæu mili porod utrobe njihove.
17 My God will cast them away, because they didn’t listen to him; and they will be wanderers among the nations.
Odbaciæe ih Bog moj, jer ga ne slušaju, i skitaæe se po narodima.
