Osee Propheta 13

1 loquente Ephraim horror invasit Israhel et deliquit in Baal et mortuus est

While Ephraim was speaking, a horror entered Israel, and he offended by Baal, and he died.

2 et nunc addiderunt ad peccandum feceruntque sibi conflatile de argento suo quasi similitudinem idolorum factura artificum totum est his ipsi dicunt immolate homines vitulos adorantes

And now they add that they will be sinning more. And they have made themselves an image cast from their silver, just like the image of idols; but the whole thing has been made by craftsmen. These say to them, “Sacrifice men, you who adore calves.”

3 idcirco erunt quasi nubes matutina et sicut ros matutinus praeteriens sicut pulvis turbine raptus ex area et sicut fumus de fumario

For this reason, they will be like the morning clouds, and like the morning dew that passes away, just like the dust that is driven by a whirlwind away from the threshing floor, and like the smoke from a chimney.

4 ego autem Dominus Deus tuus ex terra Aegypti et Deum absque me nescies et salvator non est praeter me

But I am the Lord your God from the land of Egypt, and you will not know God apart from me, and there is no Savior except me.

5 ego cognovi te in deserto in terra solitudinis

I knew you in the desert, in the land of solitude.

6 iuxta pascua sua et adimpleti sunt et saturati elevaverunt cor suum et obliti sunt mei

According to their pastures, they have been filled up and have been satisfied. And they have lifted up their heart, and they have forgotten me.

7 et ero eis quasi leaena sicut pardus in via Assyriorum

And I will be to them like a lioness, like a leopard in the way of the Assyrians.

8 occurram eis quasi ursa raptis catulis et disrumpam interiora iecoris eorum et consumam eos ibi quasi leo bestia agri scindet eos

I will run to meet them like a bear that has been robbed of her young, and I will split open the middle of their liver. And I will devour them there like a lion; the beast of the field will tear them apart.

9 perditio tua Israhel tantummodo in me auxilium tuum

Perdition is yours, Israel. Your help is only in me.

10 ubi est rex tuus maxime nunc salvet te in omnibus urbibus tuis et iudices tui de quibus dixisti da mihi regem et principes

Where is your king? Now, especially, let him save you in all your cities, and from your judges, about whom you said, “Give me kings and princes.”

11 dabo tibi regem in furore meo et auferam in indignatione mea

I will give you a king in my wrath, and I will take him away in my indignation.

12 conligata est iniquitas Ephraim absconditum peccatum eius

The iniquity of Ephraim has been bound; his sin has been engulfed.

13 dolores parturientis venient ei ipse filius non sapiens nunc enim non stabit in contritione filiorum

The pains of giving birth will reach him. He is an unwise son. For now he will not remain firm during the contrition of his sons.

14 de manu mortis liberabo eos de morte redimam eos ero mors tua o mors ero morsus tuus inferne consolatio abscondita est ab oculis meis (Sheol h7585)

I will free them from the hand of death; from death I will redeem them. Death, I will be your death. Hell, I will be your deadly wound. Consolation is hidden from my eyes. (Sheol h7585)

15 quia ipse inter fratres dividet adducet urentem ventum Dominus de deserto ascendentem et siccabit venas eius et desolabit fontem eius et ipse diripiet thesaurum omnis vasis desiderabilis

For he will make a division among brothers. The Lord will bring a burning wind, rising up from the desert, and it will dry up his streams, and it will make his fountain desolate, and he will tear apart every collection of desirable useful things.

16 pereat Samaria quoniam ad amaritudinem concitavit Dominum suum in gladio pereat parvuli eorum elidantur et fetae eius discindantur

Let Samaria perish, because she has urged her God towards bitterness. Let them perish by the sword, let their little ones be thrown down, and let their pregnant women be cut in two.
