Hozejas 12
1 Efraīms grābstās pēc vēja un dzenās pakaļ rīta vētrai, cauru dienu viņš vairo postu, un tie ceļ derību ar Asuru, un eļļa top vesta uz Ēģipti.
Ephraim feeds on wind, and follows after the east wind. He continually multiplies lies and desolation. And they make a covenant with Assyria, and oil is carried into Egypt.
2 Tam Kungam jātiesājas ar Jūdu, un Jēkabu Viņš piemeklēs pēc viņa ceļiem, pēc viņa darbiem Viņš tam atmaksās.
Jehovah has also a controversy with Judah, and will punish Jacob according to his ways. He will recompense him according to his doings.
3 Mātes miesās viņš pamina savu brāli, un savā (vīra) spēkā viņš cīnījās ar Dievu.
In the womb he took his brother by the heel, and in his manhood he had strength with God.
4 Viņš stipri cīnījās ar to eņģeli un pārvarēja; viņš raudāja un Viņu lūdza; Bētelē Viņš to atrada, un tur Viņš ar mums runāja.
Yea, he had strength over the agent, and prevailed, as he wept, and made supplication to him. He found him at Bethel, and there he spoke with us.
5 Un Tas Kungs ir tas Dievs Cebaot, Kungs ir Viņa vārds.
Even Jehovah, the God of hosts, Jehovah is his memorial.
6 Tu tad atgriezies pie sava Dieva, pasargi žēlastību un tiesu un gaidi bez mitēšanās uz savu Dievu.
Therefore turn thou to thy God. Keep kindness and justice, and wait for thy God continually.
7 Kanaāns, viņa rokā ir viltīgs svars, viņam mīl varas darbu darīt.
He is a Canaanite. The balances of deceit are in his hand. He loves to oppress.
8 Efraīms saka: taču es esmu tapis bagāts, esmu sev dabūjis lielu mantu, pie visas manas peļņas vainas nav, kas būtu grēks.
And Ephraim said, Surely I have become rich. I have found wealth for myself. In all my labors they shall find no iniquity in me that is sin.
9 Bet Es esmu Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, kamēr no Ēģiptes zemes; Es tevi vēl likšu lieveņos dzīvot, kā svētku laikā.
But I am Jehovah thy God from the land of Egypt. I will yet again make thee to dwell in tents, as in the days of the solemn feast.
10 Un Es runāju caur praviešiem, un vairoju parādīšanas, un caur praviešiem Es stāstu līdzības.
I have also spoken to the prophets, and I have multiplied visions. And by the ministry of the prophets I have used similitudes.
11 Ja Gileādā griežas uz grēku, tad tiešām tie paliks par nieku; Gilgalā tie upurē vēršus; un viņu altāri būs kā akmeņu kopa tīruma vagās.
Is Gilead iniquity? They are altogether false. In Gilgal they sacrifice bullocks. Yea, their altars are as heaps in the furrows of the field.
12 Jēkabs bēga uz Sīrijas klajumu, un Israēls kalpoja par sievu, sievas dēļ viņš bija gans.
And Jacob fled into the field of Aram, and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep.
13 Un Tas Kungs Israēli izveda no Ēģiptes caur vienu pravieti, un caur vienu pravieti tas tapa ganīts.
And by a prophet Jehovah brought Israel up out of Egypt, and by a prophet he was preserved.
14 Bet Efraīms Viņu rūgti apkaitināja, tāpēc viņa Kungs viņa asinīm liks uz tā palikt, un tam atmaksās Viņa nievāšanu.
Ephraim has provoked to anger most bitterly. Therefore his blood shall be left upon him, and his reproach his Lord shall return to him.
