Osee Propheta 8
1 In gutture tuo sit tuba quasi aquila super domum Domini: pro eo quod transgressi sunt foedus meum, et legem meam praevaricati sunt.
'Unto thy mouth — a trumpet, As an eagle against the house of Jehovah, Because they transgressed My covenant, And against My law they have rebelled.
2 Me invocabunt: Deus meus cognovimus te Israel.
To Me they cry, 'My God, we — Israel — have known Thee.'
3 Proiecit Israel bonum, inimicus persequetur eum.
Cast off good hath Israel, an enemy pursueth him.
4 Ipsi regnaverunt, et non ex me: principes extiterunt, et non cognovi: argentum suum, et aurum suum fecerunt sibi idola, ut interirent:
They have made kings, and not by Me, They have made princes, and I have not known, Their silver and their gold they have made to them idols, So that they are cut off.
5 proiectus est vitulus tuus Samaria, iratus est furor meus in eos. usquequo non poterunt emundari?
Cast off hath thy calf, O Samaria, Burned hath Mine anger against them, Till when are they not capable of purity?
6 Quia ex Israel et ipse est: artifex fecit illum, et non est Deus: quoniam in aranearum telas erit vitulus Samariae.
For even it [is] of Israel; an artificer made it, And it [is] not God, For the calf of Samaria is fragments!
7 Quia ventum seminabunt, et turbinem metent: culmus stans non est in eo, germen non faciet farinam: quod et si fecerit, alieni comedent eam.
For wind they sow, and a hurricane they reap, Stalk it hath none — a shoot not yielding grain, If so be it yield — strangers do swallow it up.
8 Devoratus est Israel: nunc factus est in nationibus quasi vas immundum.
Israel hath been swallowed up, Now they have been among nations, As a vessel in which is no delight.
9 Quia ipsi ascenderunt ad Assur, onager solitarius sibi: Ephraim munera dederunt amatoribus.
For they — they have gone up [to] Asshur, A wild ass alone by himself [is] Ephraim, They have hired lovers!
10 Sed et cum mercede conduxerint nationes, nunc congregabo eos: et quiescent paulisper ab onere regis, et principum.
Also though they hire among nations, Now I gather them, and they are pained a little, From the burden of a king of princes.
11 Quia multiplicavit Ephraim altaria ad peccandum: factae sunt ei arae in delictum.
Because Ephraim did multiply altars to sin, They have been to him altars to sin.
12 Scribam ei multiplices leges meas, quae velut alienae computatae sunt.
I write for him numerous things of My law, As a strange thing they have been reckoned.
13 Hostias offerent, immolabunt carnes, et comedent, et Dominus non suscipiet eas: nunc recordabitur iniquitatis eorum, et visitabit peccata eorum: ipsi in Aegyptum convertentur.
The sacrifices of Mine offerings! They sacrifice flesh, and they eat, Jehovah hath not accepted them, Now doth He remember their iniquity, And inspect their sin, They — [to] Egypt they turn back.
14 Et oblitus est Israel factoris sui, et aedificavit delubra: et Iuda multiplicavit urbes munitas: et mittam ignem in civitates eius, et devorabit aedes illius.
And forget doth Israel his Maker, and buildeth temples, And Judah hath multiplied cities of defence, And I have sent a fire into his cities, And it hath consumed their palaces!
