Hozejas 6
1 Kad tiem būs bail, tad tie Mani meklēs: ejam, atgriezīsimies pie Tā Kunga. Jo Viņš ir saplēsis, un Viņš mūs dziedinās, Viņš ir sasitis, un Viņš mūs sasies.
“Come on! Let's go back to the Lord. He has torn us to pieces, but now he will heal us. He has struck us down, but now he will bind up our wounds.
2 Viņš mūs darīs dzīvus pēc divām dienām, trešā dienā Viņš mūs uzcels, ka dzīvosim Viņa priekšā.
In two days he will heal us; after three days he will raise us up so we can live in his presence.
3 Tad ņemsim vērā, dzīsimies To Kungu atzīt; Viņš tiešām ausīs kā auseklis un nāks pie mums kā stiprs lietus, kā vēlais lietus slacina zemi.
Let's get to know the Lord, really strive to know him, and he will appear to us as surely as the sun will rise; he will come to us as certainly as the spring rains fall on the earth.”
4 Ko lai tev daru, Efraīm, ko lai tev daru, Jūda? Jo jūsu mīlestība ir kā rīta mākonis un kā rasa, kas agri izzūd.

6 Jo Man patīk mīlestība un ne upuris, un Dieva atzīšana vairāk nekā dedzināmie upuri.
I want your true love, not your sacrifices; I want you to know me, not your burnt offerings.
7 Bet tie pārkāpj derību kā Ādams, tur tie pret Mani palikuši neuzticīgi.
But you, just like Adam, broke our agreement, there you were unfaithful to me.
8 Gileāda ir pilsēta pilna ļauna darītāju, ar asiņainām pēdām.
Gilead is a city of evil people where footprints are tracked in blood.
9 Un kā laupītāji glūn uz kādu cilvēku, tāda ir tā priesteru draudze, uz Sihemas ceļa tie dzen slepkavību, tiešām tie dara negantus darbus.
Priests are like a gang of bandits, lying in wait to ambush travelers on the road. They commit murder in Shechem, carrying out wicked crimes.
10 Israēla namā Es redzu briesmīgas lietas: tur ir Efraīma maucība, Israēls ir sagānījies.
I have seen in the house of Israel something totally disgusting: Ephraim engages in prostitution and Israel is sexually corrupt.
11 Arī tev, Jūda, ir pļauja priekšā, kad Es pārvedīšu Savus cietuma ļaudis.
And as for you, Judah, your harvest-time has been set! When I restore the fortunes of my people,
