Hozejas 4
1 Klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, Israēla bērni! Jo Tam Kungam ir tiesas lieta ar zemes iedzīvotājiem, tāpēc ka ne uzticības, ne mīlestības, ne Dieva atzīšanas nav tai zemē.
Hear the word of the Lord, you children of Israel: for the Lord [has] a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2 Bet lādēšana un melošana un kaušana un zagšana un laulības pārkāpšana laužas iekšā, un asins vaina nāk pēc asins vainas.
Cursing, and lying, and murder, and theft, and adultery abound in the land, and they mingle blood with blood.
3 Tādēļ zeme bēdājās, un visi viņas iedzīvotāji vaid līdz ar zvēriem laukā un ar putniem apakš debess, un pat jūras zivis iet bojā.
Therefore shall the land mourn, and shall be diminished with all that dwell in it, with the wild beasts of the field, and the reptiles of the earth, and with the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea shall fail:
4 Tomēr lai neviens nestrīdās un netiesājās ar otru, jo tavi ļaudis ir kā tādi, kas ar priesteri strīdās.
that neither any one may plead, nor any one reprove [another]; but my people are as a priest spoken against.
5 Tādēļ tu klupsi dienā, un pats pravietis klups ar tevi naktī, un Es izdeldēšu tavu māti.
Therefore they shall fall by day, and the prophet with you shall fall: I have compared your mother to night.
6 Mani ļaudis top izdeldēti, tādēļ ka tie bez atzīšanas. Jo kā tu atzīšanu esi atmetis, tad arī Es tevi atmetīšu, ka tev Man nebūs būt par priesteri. Un tāpēc ka tu esi aizmirsis sava Dieva bauslību, tad arī Es aizmirsīšu tavus bērnus.
My people are like as if they had no knowledge: because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you shall not minister as priest to me: and [as] you has forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.
7 Cik daudz viņi bijuši, tik tie pret Mani apgrēkojušies. Es viņu godu pārvērtīšu par kaunu.
According to their multitude, so they sinned against me: I will turn their glory into shame.
8 Tie ēd Manu ļaužu grēku upurus un ilgojās ikviens savā dvēselē pēc viņu noziegumiem.
They will devour the sins of my people, and will set their hearts on their iniquities.
9 Tādēļ priesteris būs tāpat kā tie ļaudis, un Es pie viņa piemeklēšu viņu ceļus un viņam atmaksāšu viņu darbus.
And the priest shall be as the people: and I will avenge on them their ways, and I will recompense to them their counsels.
10 Un tie ēdīs, bet nepaēdīs, tie maukos, bet nevairosies, tādēļ ka tie To Kungu atstājuši un viņu nav cienījuši.
And they shall eat, and shall not be satisfied: they have gone a-whoring, and shall by no means prosper: because they have left off to take heed to the Lord.
11 Maucība un vīns un jauns vīns paņem prātu.
The heart of my people has gladly engaged in fornication and wine and strong drink.
12 Mani ļaudis vaicā savu koku, un viņu spieķis tiem dod ziņas, jo maucības gars tos pieviļ, ka tie maukodamies no sava Dieva atkāpjas.
They asked counsel by [means of] signs, and they reported answer to them by their staves: they have gone astray in a spirit of whoredom, and gone grievously a-whoring from their God.
13 Kalnu galos tie upurē un pakalnos tie kvēpina, apakš ozoliem, liepām un kļavām, tāpēc ka viņu ēna ir laba; tādēļ jūsu meitas dzen maucību, un jūsu brūtes pārkāpj laulību.
They have sacrificed on the tops of the mountains, and on the hills they have sacrificed under the oak and poplar, and under the shady tree, because the shade was good: therefore your daughters shall go a-whoring, and your daughters-in-law shall commit adultery.
14 Es nepiemeklēšu jūsu meitas, ka tās dzen maucību, nedz jūsu brūtes, ka tās pārkāpj laulību, jo tie paši iet savrup ar maukām un upurē ar nešķīstām, tādēļ tie neprātīgie ļaudis ies postā.
And I will not visit upon your daughters when they shall commit fornication, nor your daughters-in-law when they shall commit adultery: for they themselves mingled themselves with harlots, and sacrificed with polluted ones, and the people that understood not entangled itself with a harlot.
15 Ja tu, Israēl, gribi maukot, tad lai Jūda nenoziedzās arīdzan. Nenāciet uz Gilgalu un neejat augšām uz BetAvenu, un nezvērējiet: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo.
But you, O Israel, be not ignorant, and go you not, [men of] Juda, to Galgala; and go not up to the house of On, and swear not by the living Lord.
16 Ja Israēls ir trakgalvīgs kā trakgalvīga govs, tad arī Tas Kungs tos ganīs kā jērus plašā zemē.
For Israel was maddened like a mad heifer: now the Lord will feed them as a lamb in a wide place.
17 Efraīms ir apbiedrinājies ar dievekļiem, laižat to mierā!
Ephraim, joined with idols, has laid stumbling blocks in his own way.
18 Plītēšanā tie palaidušies, maukot tie maukojās, viņu valdnieki mīl negodu.
He has chosen the Chananites: they have grievously gone a-whoring: they have loved dishonor through her insolence.
19 Vējš ar saviem spārniem tos sagrābs, un tie taps kaunā ar saviem upuriem.
You are a blast of wind in her wings, and they shall be ashamed because of their altars.
