1 Convertere Israel ad Dominum Deum tuum: quoniam corruisti in iniquitate tua.
Return, O Israel, to Jehovah thy God; For thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.
2 Tollite vobiscum verba, et convertimini ad Dominum: et dicite ei: Omnem aufer iniquitatem, accipe bonum: et reddemus vitulos labiorum nostrorum.
Take with you words, And return to Jehovah, saying, “Forgive all our iniquity, and receive us graciously, And we will render to thee the sacrifices of our lips!
3 Assur non salvabit nos, super equum non ascendemus, nec dicemus ultra: Dii nostri opera manuum nostrarum: quia eius, qui in te est, misereberis pupilli.
Assyria shall not help us; We will not ride on horses; And no more will we say to the work of our hands, Ye are our Gods! For from thee the fatherless obtaineth mercy.”
4 Sanabo contritiones eorum, diligam eos spontanee: quia aversus est furor meus ab eis.
“I will heal their rebellion; I will love them freely; For my anger is turned away from them.
5 Ero quasi ros, Israel germinabit sicut lilium, et erumpet radix eius ut Libani.
I will be as the dew to Israel; He shall blossom as the lily, And strike his roots like Lebanon.
6 Ibunt rami eius, et erit quasi oliva gloria eius: et odor eius ut Libani.
His sprouts shall spread forth, And his beauty shall be as the olive-tree, And his fragrance as Lebanon.
7 Convertentur sedentes in umbra eius: vivent tritico, et germinabunt quasi vinea: memoriale eius sicut vinum Libani.
They that dwell under his shadow Shall revive as the corn; They shall shoot forth as the vine; Their name shall be like the wine of Lebanon.
8 Ephraim quid mihi ultra idola? ego exaudiam, et dirigam eum ego ut abietem virentem: ex me fructus tuus inventus est.
Ephraim shall say, What have I more to do with idols? I will hear him; I will care for him; I will be like a green cypress-tree; From me shall thy fruit be found.”
9 Quis sapiens, et intelliget ista? intelligens, et sciet hæc? quia rectæ viæ Domini, et iusti ambulabunt in eis: prævaricatores vero corruent in eis.
Who is wise, that he may understand these things, Prudent, that he may know them? For the ways of Jehovah are right, And the righteous walk in them; But in them transgressors stumble.
