< Osee Propheta 14 >
1 convertere Israhel ad Dominum Deum tuum quoniam corruisti in iniquitate tua
Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God; for the people have fallen through your iniquities.
2 tollite vobiscum verba et convertimini ad Dominum dicite ei omnem aufer iniquitatem et accipe bonum et reddemus vitulos labiorum nostrorum
Take with you words, and turn to the Lord your God: speak to him, that you may not receive [the reward of] unrighteousness, but that you may receive good things: and we will render in return 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
Assur shall never save us; we will not mount on horseback; we will no longer say to the works of our hands, Our gods. He who is in you shall pity the orphan.
4 sanabo contritiones eorum diligam eos spontanee quia aversus est furor meus ab eo
I will restore their dwellings, I will love them truly: for he has turned away my wrath from him.
5 ero quasi ros Israhel germinabit quasi lilium et erumpet radix eius ut Libani
I will be as dew to Israel: he shall bloom as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Libanus.
6 ibunt rami eius et erit quasi oliva gloria eius et odor eius ut Libani
His branches shall spread, and he shall be as a fruitful olive, and his smell shall be as [the smell] of Libanus.
7 convertentur sedentes in umbra eius vivent tritico et germinabunt quasi vinea memoriale eius sicut vinum Libani
They shall return, and dwell under his shadow: they shall live and be satisfied with corn, and he shall flower as a vine: his memorial shall be to Ephraim as the wine of Libanus.
8 Ephraim quid mihi ultra idola ego exaudiam et dirigam eum ego ut abietem virentem ex me fructus tuus inventus est
What [has] he to do any more with idols? I have afflicted him, and I will strengthen him: I am as a leafy juniper tree. From me is your fruit found.
9 quis sapiens et intelleget ista intellegens et sciet haec quia rectae viae Domini et iusti ambulabunt in eis praevaricatores vero corruent in eis
Who is wise, and will understand these things? or prudent, and will know them? for the ways of the Lord are straight, and the righteous shall walk in them: but the ungodly shall fall therein.
