Osee Propheta 8
1 in gutture tuo sit tuba quasi aquila super domum Domini pro eo quod transgressi sunt foedus meum et legem meam praevaricati sunt
“Put the shofar to your lips! Something like an eagle is over the LORD’s house, because they have broken my covenant and rebelled against my law.
2 me invocabunt Deus meus cognovimus te Israhel
They cry to me, ‘My God, we, Israel, acknowledge you!’
3 proiecit Israhel bonum inimicus persequetur eum
Israel has cast off that which is good. The enemy will pursue him.
4 ipsi regnaverunt et non ex me principes extiterunt et non cognovi argentum suum et aurum suum fecerunt sibi idola ut interirent
They have set up kings, but not by me. They have made princes, and I didn’t approve. Of their silver and their gold they have made themselves idols, that they may be cut off.
5 proiectus est vitulus tuus Samaria iratus est furor meus in eis usquequo non poterunt emundari
Let Samaria throw out his calf idol! My anger burns against them! How long will it be until they are capable of purity?
6 quia ex Israhel et ipse est artifex fecit illum et non est Deus quoniam in aranearum telas erit vitulus Samariae
For this is even from Israel! The workman made it, and it is no God; indeed, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
7 quia ventum seminabunt et turbinem metent culmus stans non est in eis germen non faciet farinam quod si et fecerit alieni comedent eam
For they sow the wind, and they will reap the whirlwind. He has no standing grain. The stalk will yield no head. If it does yield, strangers will swallow it up.
8 devoratus est Israhel nunc factus est in nationibus quasi vas inmundum
Israel is swallowed up. Now they are amongst the nations like a worthless thing.
9 quia ipsi ascenderunt ad Assur onager solitarius sibi Ephraim munera dederunt amatoribus
For they have gone up to Assyria, like a wild donkey wandering alone. Ephraim has hired lovers for himself.
10 sed et cum mercede conduxerint nationes nunc congregabo eos et quiescent paulisper ab onere regis et principum
But although they sold themselves amongst the nations, I will now gather them; and they begin to waste away because of the oppression of the king of mighty ones.
11 quia multiplicavit Ephraim altaria ad peccandum factae sunt ei arae in delictum
Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning, they became for him altars for sinning.
12 scribam ei multiplices leges meas quae velut alienae conputatae sunt
I wrote for him the many things of my law, but they were regarded as a strange thing.
13 hostias adfer adfer immolabunt carnes et comedent Dominus non suscipiet eas nunc recordabitur iniquitatis eorum et visitabit peccata eorum ipsi in Aegyptum convertentur
As for the sacrifices of my offerings, they sacrifice meat and eat it, but the LORD doesn’t accept them. Now he will remember their iniquity, and punish their sins. They will return to Egypt.
14 et oblitus est Israhel factoris sui et aedificavit delubra et Iudas multiplicavit urbes munitas et mittam ignem in civitates eius et devorabit aedes illius
For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces; and Judah has multiplied fortified cities; but I will send a fire on his cities, and it will devour its fortresses.”
