< Hozejas 5 >
1 Klausiet šo, jūs priesteri, un ņemiet vērā, Israēla nams, un atgriežat ausis, ķēniņa nams, jo pār jums nāks sodība, ka esat par valgu tapuši Micpā un par izplestu tīklu Tāborā.
Hear this, O ye priests; and listen well, O ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for the punishment threateneth you; because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread out upon Thabor.
2 Tie atkāpjās un dziļi samaitājās, bet Es tiem visnotaļ būšu par pārmācītāju.
And for murdering they who had rebelled [against God] concealed themselves in deep places; but I will inflict correction on them all.
3 Es pazīstu Efraīmu, un Israēls priekš Manis nav apslēpts, ka tu, Efraīm, tagad maucību dzeni, un Israēls sagānās.
I well know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from me; for now, O Ephraim, hast thou played the harlot, [and] Israel is defiled.
4 Viņu darbi nevēl pie Dieva atgriezties, jo maucības gars ir viņu sirdī, un To Kungu tie neatzīst.
Their doings will not permit them to return unto their God; for the spirit of lewdness is in their bosom, and the Lord they have not known.
5 Israēla gods dos liecību pret viņa vaigu, un Israēls un Efraīms kritīs caur savu noziegumu, arī Jūda kritīs līdz ar viņiem.
Therefore shall the pride of Israel be humbled before his face: and Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in their iniquity; Judah also shall stumble with them.
6 Tad tie nāks ar savām avīm un ar saviem vēršiem, To Kungu meklēt, bet neatradīs, - Viņš no tiem ir atrāvies.
With their flocks and with their herds will they go to seek the Lord; but they shall not find him: he hath withdrawn himself from them.
7 Tie palikuši neuzticīgi pret To Kungu, jo tie dzemdinājuši svešus bērnus, un jaunais mēnesis tos norīs ar viņu daļām.
Against the Lord have they dealt treacherously; for strange children have they begotten: now shall one month devour them together with their possessions.
8 Bazūnējiet ar bazūnēm Ģibejā, ar trumetēm Rāmā, sauciet skaņi BetAvenā: „aiz tevis, Benjamin!“
Blow ye the cornet in Gib'ah, the trumpet in Ramah: blow the alarm at Beth-aven, [The enemy is] after thee, O Benjamin.
9 Efraīms taps par tuksnesi sodības dienā; par Israēla ciltīm Es esmu darījis zināmu, kas tiešām notiks.
Ephraim shall be made desolate on the day of chastisement: among the tribes of Israel had I made known that which is true.
10 Jūda lielkungi ir tapuši kā tie, kas robežu pārceļ, Es izgāzīšu pār tiem savas dusmas kā ūdeni.
The princes of Judah were like those that remove the landmark: my wrath, therefore, will I pour out upon them like water.
11 Efraīms top nospaidīts, sasists sodā, jo viņam gribējās pakaļ dzīties (cilvēku) likumiem.
Oppressed is Ephraim, broken through punishment; because he willingly walked after the commandment [of false prophets].
12 Tāpēc Es Efraīmam būšu kā kode, un Jūda namam kā kāpurs.
But like the moth became I unto Ephraim, and like rottenness to the house of Judah.
13 Kad Efraīms redzēja savu sērgu un Jūda savu vainu, tad Efraīms cēlās pie Asura un sūtīja pie ķēniņa Jareba, bet tas nevar jūs darīt veselus, nedz dziedināt jūsu vainu.
Then saw Ephraim his sickness, and Judah his wound, and Ephraim went to Asshur, and [the other] sent to the king that should contend [[Jareb]]; but he will never be able to heal you, nor remove from you your wound.
14 Jo Es būšu Efraīmam kā lauva un Jūda namam kā jauns lauva. Es, Es saplosīšu un iešu projām, Es aiznesīšu, un nebūs glābēja.
For I am as a lion unto Ephraim, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I myself will tear in pieces and go away; I will bear away, and none shall deliver.
15 Es iešu un atgriezīšos uz savu vietu, tiekams tie savu noziegumu atzīst un meklē manu vaigu.
I will go [from here, and] return to my place, till they acknowledge their guilt, and seek my presence: in their affliction will they seek for me.
