ホセア書 3

1 ヱホバわれに言給ひけるは汝ふたたび往てヱホバに愛せらるれども轉りてほかのもろもろの神にむかひ葡萄の菓子を愛するイスラエルの子孫のごとく そのつれそふものに愛せらるれども姦淫をおこなふ婦人をあいせよ

And Jehovah saith unto me: 'Again, go, love a woman, loved of a friend, and an adulteress, like the loved of Jehovah, the sons of Israel, and they are turning unto other gods, and are lovers of grape-cakes.'

2 われ銀十五枚おほむぎ一ホメル半をもてわが爲にその婦人をえたり

And I buy her to me for fifteen silverlings, and a homer and a letech of barley;

3 我これにいひけるは汝おほくの日わがためにとどまりて淫行をなすことなく他の人にゆくことなかれ 我もまた汝にむかひて然せん

and I say unto her, 'Many days thou dost remain for Me, thou dost not go a-whoring, nor become any one's; and I also [am] for thee.'

4 イスラエルの子輩は多くの日王なく君なく犠牲なく表柱なくエボデなくテラビムなくして居らん

For many days remain do the sons of Israel without a king, and there is no prince, and there is no sacrifice, and there is no standing pillar, and there is no ephod and teraphim.

5 その後イスラエルの子輩はかへりてその神ヱホバとその王ダビデをたづねもとめ末日にをののきてヱホバとその恩惠とにむかひてゆかん

Afterwards turned back have the sons of Israel, and sought Jehovah their God, and David their king, and have hastened unto Jehovah, and unto His goodness, in the latter end of the days.
