Osee Propheta 13
1 loquente Ephraim horror invasit Israhel et deliquit in Baal et mortuus est
When Ephraim spoke, there was trembling, he exalted himself in Israel; but when he became guilty through Baal, 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 sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, according to their own understanding, even idols, all of them the work of the craftsmen; of them they say: 'They that sacrifice men kiss calves.'
3 idcirco erunt quasi nubes matutina et sicut ros matutinus praeteriens sicut pulvis turbine raptus ex area et sicut fumus de fumario
Therefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the dew that early passeth away, as the chaff that is driven with the wind out of the threshing-floor, and as the smoke out of the window.
4 ego autem Dominus Deus tuus ex terra Aegypti et Deum absque me nescies et salvator non est praeter me
Yet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt; and thou knowest no God but Me, and beside Me there is no saviour.
5 ego cognovi te in deserto in terra solitudinis
I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought.
6 iuxta pascua sua et adimpleti sunt et saturati elevaverunt cor suum et obliti sunt mei
When they were fed, they became full, they were filled, and their heart was exalted; therefore have they forgotten Me.
7 et ero eis quasi leaena sicut pardus in via Assyriorum
Therefore am I become unto them as a lion; as a leopard will I watch by the way;
8 occurram eis quasi ursa raptis catulis et disrumpam interiora iecoris eorum et consumam eos ibi quasi leo bestia agri scindet eos
I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the enclosure of their heart; and there will I devour them like a lioness; the wild beast shall tear them.
9 perditio tua Israhel tantummodo in me auxilium tuum
It is thy destruction, O Israel, that thou art against Me, against thy help.
10 ubi est rex tuus maxime nunc salvet te in omnibus urbibus tuis et iudices tui de quibus dixisti da mihi regem et principes
Ho, now, thy king, that he may save thee in all thy cities! and thy judges, of whom thou saidst: 'Give me a king and princes!'
11 dabo tibi regem in furore meo et auferam in indignatione mea
I give thee a king in Mine anger, and take him away in My wrath.
12 conligata est iniquitas Ephraim absconditum peccatum eius
The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is laid up in store.
13 dolores parturientis venient ei ipse filius non sapiens nunc enim non stabit in contritione filiorum
The throes of a travailing woman shall come upon him; he is an unwise son; for it is time he should not tarry in the place of the breaking forth of children.
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)
Shall I ransom them from the power of the nether-world? Shall I redeem them from death? Ho, thy plagues, O death! Ho, thy destruction, O nether-world! Repentance be hid from Mine 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 though he be fruitful among the reed-plants, an east wind shall come, the wind of the LORD coming up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up; he shall spoil the treasure of all precious vessels.
16 pereat Samaria quoniam ad amaritudinem concitavit Dominum suum in gladio pereat parvuli eorum elidantur et fetae eius discindantur
Samaria shall bear her guilt, for she hath rebelled against her God; they shall fall by the sword; their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up.
