Osee Propheta 5

1 audite hoc sacerdotes et adtendite domus Israhel et domus regis auscultate quia vobis iudicium est quoniam laqueus facti estis speculationi et rete expansum super Thabor

Hear you this, O priests; and listen, you house of Israel; and give you ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward you, because you have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread on Tabor.

2 et victimas declinastis in profundum et ego eruditor omnium eorum

And the rebels are profound to make slaughter, though I have been a rebuker of them all.

3 ego scio Ephraim et Israhel non est absconditus a me quia nunc fornicatus est Ephraim contaminatus est Israhel

I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, you commit prostitution, and Israel is defiled.

4 non dabunt cogitationes suas ut revertantur ad Dominum suum quia spiritus fornicationis in medio eorum et Dominum non cognoverunt

They will not frame their doings to turn to their God: for the spirit of prostitutions is in the middle of them, and they have not known the LORD.

5 et respondebit arrogantia Israhel in facie eius et Israhel et Ephraim ruent in iniquitate sua ruet etiam Iudas cum eis

And the pride of Israel does testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity: Judah also shall fall with them.

6 in gregibus suis et in armentis suis vadent ad quaerendum Dominum et non invenient ablatus est ab eis

They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find him; he has withdrawn himself from them.

7 in Domino praevaricati sunt quia filios alienos genuerunt nunc devorabit eos mensis cum partibus suis

They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions.

8 clangite bucina in Gabaa tuba in Rama ululate in Bethaven post tergum tuum Beniamin

Blow you the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud at Bethaven, after you, O Benjamin.

9 Ephraim in desolatione erit in die correptionis in tribubus Israhel ostendi fidem

Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.

10 facti sunt principes Iuda quasi adsumentes terminum super eos effundam quasi aquam iram meam

The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound: therefore I will pour out my wrath on them like water.

11 calumniam patiens Ephraim fractus iudicio quoniam coepit abire post sordem

Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment.

12 et ego quasi tinea Ephraim et quasi putredo domui Iuda

Therefore will I be to Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.

13 et vidit Ephraim languorem suum et Iudas vinculum suum et abiit Ephraim ad Assur et misit ad regem ultorem et ipse non poterit sanare vos nec solvere poterit a vobis vinculum

When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you, nor cure you of your wound.

14 quoniam ego quasi leaena Ephraim et quasi catulus leonis domui Iuda ego ego capiam et vadam tollam et non est qui eruat

For I will be to Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him.

15 vadens revertar ad locum meum donec deficiatis et quaeratis faciem meam

I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offense, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.
