1 Convertere Israel ad Dominum Deum tuum: quoniam corruisti in iniquitate tua.
O Israel, returne vnto the Lord thy God: for thou hast fallen by thine iniquitie.
2 Tollite vobiscum verba, et convertimini ad Dominum: et dicite ei: Omnem aufer iniquitatem, accipe bonum: et reddemus vitulos labiorum nostrorum.
Take vnto you words, and turne to the Lord, and say vnto him, Take away all iniquitie, and receiue vs graciously: so wil we render the calues of our lippes.
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.
Asshur shall not saue vs, neither wil we ride vpon horses, neither will we say any more to the worke of our handes, Ye are our gods: for in thee the fatherlesse findeth mercie.
4 Sanabo contritiones eorum, diligam eos spontanee: quia aversus est furor meus ab eis.
I wil heale their rebellion: I wil loue them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.
5 Ero quasi ros, Israel germinabit sicut lilium, et erumpet radix eius ut Libani.
I will be as the dewe vnto Israel: he shall grow as the lilie and fasten his rootes, as the trees of Lebanon.
6 Ibunt rami eius, et erit quasi oliva gloria eius: et odor eius ut Libani.
His branches shall spread, and his beautie shalbe as the oliue tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
7 Convertentur sedentes in umbra eius: vivent tritico, et germinabunt quasi vinea: memoriale eius sicut vinum Libani.
They that dwel vnder his shadow, shall returne: they shall reuiue as the corne, and florish as the vine: the sent thereof shalbe as 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 haue I to doe any more with idoles? I haue heard him, and looked vpon him: I am like a greene firre tree: vpon me is thy fruite founde.
9 Quis sapiens, et intelliget ista? intelligens, et sciet haec? quia rectae viae Domini, et iusti ambulabunt in eis: praevaricatores vero corruent in eis.
Who is wise, and he shall vnderstande these things? and prudent, and he shall knowe them? for the wayes of the Lord are righteous, and the iust shall walke in them: but the wicked shall fall therein.
