< 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.
“Listen, you priests! And you [other] Israeli people, you also pay attention! And you who are members of the king’s family, [you also need to] listen, because [I am going to] judge you! Your [worshiping idols] has been [like] [MET] a trap for [the people at] Mizpah [town]; it has been [like][MET] a net spread out [to catch people] at Tabor [Mountain].
2 Tie atkāpjās un dziļi samaitājās, bet Es tiem visnotaļ būšu par pārmācītāju.
You have done many evil things, so I will punish all of you.
3 Es pazīstu Efraīmu, un Israēls priekš Manis nav apslēpts, ka tu, Efraīm, tagad maucību dzeni, un Israēls sagānās.
I know [everything about the people of] Israel; nothing that they have done is hidden from me. Because [the people of] Israel have given themselves [to worshiping idols] like [MET] prostitutes [give themselves to the men they sleep with], they have become unacceptable to me.
4 Viņu darbi nevēl pie Dieva atgriezties, jo maucības gars ir viņu sirdī, un To Kungu tie neatzīst.
Because they [like to do evil] things, they will not return to [me], their God. Like prostitutes [who have abandoned their husbands] [MET], they have [IDM] abandoned [MET] me; they do not [even] know me, Yahweh.
5 Israēla gods dos liecību pret viņa vaigu, un Israēls un Efraīms kritīs caur savu noziegumu, arī Jūda kritīs līdz ar viņiem.
[It is as though] their being proud testifies [PRS] against them. The sins that [the people of] Israel have committed [are like a heavy load that] causes them to stumble, and [the people of] Judah stumble with them.
6 Tad tie nāks ar savām avīm un ar saviem vēršiem, To Kungu meklēt, bet neatradīs, - Viņš no tiem ir atrāvies.
They will come to worship [me], Yahweh, bringing their herds of sheep and cattle, but they will not [be able to] find me, because I have abandoned them.
7 Tie palikuši neuzticīgi pret To Kungu, jo tie dzemdinājuši svešus bērnus, un jaunais mēnesis tos norīs ar viņu daļām.
They have abandoned me; and their children do not belong to me [MET]. So [they will not be able to celebrate their festivals at] the new moons [because I] will destroy them and [the crops in] their fields.
8 Bazūnējiet ar bazūnēm Ģibejā, ar trumetēm Rāmā, sauciet skaņi BetAvenā: „aiz tevis, Benjamin!“
Blow the [rams’] horns in Gibeah [town] [and blow] the trumpets in Ramah [town]! Warn [the people at] Beth-Aven [town]; you warriors of the tribe of Benjamin, lead the troops [into the battle].
9 Efraīms taps par tuksnesi sodības dienā; par Israēla ciltīm Es esmu darījis zināmu, kas tiešām notiks.
Israel will be ruined on the day that [I] destroy them. What I am telling to the tribes of Israel will certainly [happen].
10 Jūda lielkungi ir tapuši kā tie, kas robežu pārceļ, Es izgāzīšu pār tiem savas dusmas kā ūdeni.
[Because] the leaders of Judah [seized some land that belonged to Israel], they are like [SIM] those who move boundary markers [to get more land for themselves]; [so] I will punish them severely [MET].
11 Efraīms top nospaidīts, sasists sodā, jo viņam gribējās pakaļ dzīties (cilvēku) likumiem.
And [the people of] Israel will suffer greatly when I punish them, because they are [very] determined to worship idols.
12 Tāpēc Es Efraīmam būšu kā kode, un Jūda namam kā kāpurs.
I will destroy [the people of] Israel like [SIM] ([larvae of] moths/cockroaches) destroy wool, and I will cause [the people of] Judah to be like [SIM] rotten wood.
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.
When [the leaders of] Israel and Judah saw that the people were suffering because of what [their enemies were doing to them] [MET], they sent [messages] to the great King of Assyria requesting [his help]. But he cannot help you; he cannot cause you to stop suffering, [because I am the one who is punishing Israel and Judah].
14 Jo Es būšu Efraīmam kā lauva un Jūda namam kā jauns lauva. Es, Es saplosīšu un iešu projām, Es aiznesīšu, un nebūs glābēja.
I will become like [SIM] a lion [DOU] to both nations; I will [attack them and] tear them to pieces. I will drag them away, and no one will [be able to] rescue them.
15 Es iešu un atgriezīšos uz savu vietu, tiekams tie savu noziegumu atzīst un meklē manu vaigu.
[After that], I will return to my place [in heaven] until they admit that they have sinned [MTY] and return to me; when they will experience [many] troubles, they will request me [to help them].”
