< Osee Propheta 14 >

1 Convertere Israel ad Dominum Deum tuum: quoniam corruisti in iniquitate tua.
“Turn back, O Israel, to your God YHWH, For you have stumbled by your iniquity.
2 Tollite vobiscum verba, et convertimini ad Dominum: et dicite ei: Omnem aufer iniquitatem, accipe bonum: et reddemus vitulos labiorum nostrorum.
Take words with you, and turn to YHWH, Say to Him, Take away all iniquity, and give good, And we render the fruit 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.
Asshur does not save us, we do not ride on a horse, Nor do we say anymore, Our god, to the work of our hands, For in You the fatherless find mercy.
4 Sanabo contritiones eorum, diligam eos spontanee: quia aversus est furor meus ab eis.
I heal their backsliding, I love them freely, For My anger has turned back from him.
5 Ero quasi ros, Israel germinabit sicut lilium, et erumpet radix eius ut Libani.
I am as dew to Israel, he flourishes as a lily, And he strikes forth his roots as Lebanon.
6 Ibunt rami eius, et erit quasi oliva gloria eius: et odor eius ut Libani.
His shoots go on, And his splendor is as an olive, And he has fragrance as Lebanon.
7 Convertentur sedentes in umbra eius: vivent tritico, et germinabunt quasi vinea: memoriale eius sicut vinum Libani.
The dwellers return under his shadow, They revive [as] grain, and flourish as a vine, His memorial [is] as wine of Lebanon.
8 Ephraim quid mihi ultra idola? ego exaudiam, et dirigam eum ego ut abietem virentem: ex me fructus tuus inventus est.
O Ephraim, what have I anymore to do with idols? I have answered, and I look after him: I [am] as a green fir-tree, Your fruit is found from Me.
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 understands these? Prudent, and knows them? For upright are the ways of YHWH, And the righteous go on in them, And the transgressors stumble therein!”
