Osee Propheta 11
1 sicuti mane transit pertransiit rex Israhel quia puer Israhel et dilexi eum et ex Aegypto vocavi filium meum
“Because Israel [is] a youth, and I love him, Out of Egypt I have called for My Son.
2 vocaverunt eos sic abierunt a facie eorum Baalim immolabant et simulacris sacrificabant
They have called to them correctly, They have gone from before them, They sacrifice to lords, And make incense to carved images.
3 et ego quasi nutricius Ephraim portabam eos in brachiis meis et nescierunt quod curarem eos
And I have caused Ephraim to go on foot, Taking them by their arms, And they have not known that I strengthened them.
4 in funiculis Adam traham eos in vinculis caritatis et ero eis quasi exaltans iugum super maxillas eorum et declinavi ad eum ut vesceretur
I draw them with cords of man, With thick cords of love, And I am to them as a raiser up of a yoke on their jaws, And I incline to him—I feed [him].
5 non revertetur in terram Aegypti et Assur ipse rex eius quoniam noluerunt converti
He does not return to the land of Egypt, And Asshur—he [is] his king, For they have refused to return.
6 coepit gladius in civitatibus eius et consumet electos eius et comedet capita eorum
The sword has been grievous in his cities, And it has ended his bars, and consumed—from their own counsels.
7 et populus meus pendebit ad reditum meum iugum autem inponetur ei simul quod non auferetur
And My people are hanging in suspense about My returning, And to the Most High they call, Together they do not exalt.
8 quomodo dabo te Ephraim protegam te Israhel quomodo dabo te sicut Adama ponam te ut Seboim conversum est in me cor meum pariter conturbata est paenitudo mea
How do I give you up, O Ephraim? Do I deliver you up, O Israel? How do I make you as Admah? Do I set you as Zeboim? My heart is turned in Me, My sympathy has been kindled together.
9 non faciam furorem irae meae non convertar ut disperdam Ephraim quoniam Deus ego et non homo in medio tui Sanctus et non ingrediar civitatem
I do not do the fierceness of My anger, I do not turn back to destroy Ephraim, For I [am] God, and not a man—The Holy One in your midst, and I do not enter in enmity.
10 post Dominum ambulabunt quasi leo rugiet quia ipse rugiet et formidabunt filii maris
They go after YHWH—He roars as a lion, When He roars, then the sons from the west tremble.
11 et avolabunt quasi avis ex Aegypto et quasi columba de terra Assyriorum et conlocabo eos in domibus suis dicit Dominus
They tremble as a sparrow out of Egypt, And as a dove out of the land of Asshur, And I have caused them to dwell in their own houses,” A declaration of YHWH.
12 circumdedit me in negatione Ephraim et in dolo domus Israhel Iudas autem testis descendit cum Deo et cum sanctis fidelis
“Ephraim has surrounded Me with feigning, And the house of Israel with deceit. And Judah is again ruling with God, And [is] faithful with the Holy Ones!”
