Hozejas 7
1 Kad Es Israēli dziedināšu, tad Efraīma noziegums taps atsegts un Samarijas ļaunums, jo tie dara viltību; zagļi ir iekšā, un laupītāji ārā.
when I heal Israel, Ephraim's sins will be exposed, together with the evil actions of Samaria. They deal in lies; they are thieves who break into homes and rob people on the outside.
2 Un tie nedomā savā sirdī, ka Es visu viņu ļaunumu pieminu. Bet nu viņu darbi apmetās pret tiem, tie ir Manā priekšā.
But they don't realize that I remember all of their wickedness. Their sins surround them and are always before me.
3 Ar savu ļaunumu tie iepriecina ķēniņu un lielkungus ar saviem meliem.
They make their king happy with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
4 Tie visi ir laulības pārkāpēji, tie ir kā ceplis, kurināts no cepēja, kas mīklu samīcījis, mitējās kurināt, kamēr tā ir uzrūgusi.
All of them are adulterers, burning with lust like an oven whose fire stays hot, even though it is not tended by the baker, having left the dough to rise after kneading.
5 Mūsu ķēniņa dienā lielkungi paliek vāji no vīna karstuma; viņš sniedz savu roku smējējiem.
On the king's birthday the princes drink so much they are sick, while he joins in with those who mock.
6 Jo tie ar savu sirdi dodās uz viltību kā ceplī. Viņu cepējs guļ cauru nakti, rītā viņš deg kā uguns liesmās.
Their minds are fired up like an oven; they go to him with their plots. All through the night their anger burns; in the morning it blazes out uncontrollably.
7 Tie visi ir iekarsuši kā ceplis un aprij savus tiesnešus, visi viņu ķēniņi krīt, neviens no tiem mani nepiesauc.
All of them are as hot as a burning oven, and they exhaust their leaders. All of their kings have fallen, and not one of them calls on me.
8 Efraīms jaucās ar tautām, Efraīms ir rausis, ko neapgriež.
Ephraim mixes with the foreign nations; he is as useless as half-baked bread!
9 Sveši norij viņa spēku, un viņš to nemana, arī sirmums viņam ir uznācis, un viņš to neatzīst.
Foreigners drain his strength, and he doesn't even realize it. His hair is turning grey and he doesn't even notice.
10 Un Israēla gods dod liecību pret viņa vaigu, bet tie neatgriežas pie Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, un tomēr viņu nemeklē.
Israel's pride testifies against him, but for all of this he still does not return to the Lord their God or look for him.
11 Jo Efraīms ir kā nejēdzīgs balodis bez prāta; Ēģipti tie piesauc, pie Asura tie staigā.
Ephraim is like a dove, foolish and without sense—calling to Egypt, then going to Assyria.
12 Kad tie nu tā staigā, tad Es Savu tīklu pār tiem izpletīšu, Es tos nometīšu(lejā) kā putnus apakš debess, Es tos pārmācīšu, tā kā ir sludināts viņu draudzei.
When they go I will throw my net over them; I will bring them down like wild birds. When I hear them flocking together I will punish them.
13 Vai tiem! Jo tie bēg no Manis; posts pār viņiem! Jo tie ir noziegušies pret Mani. Es tos gan gribētu atpestīt, bet tie runā melus pret Mani.
What disaster is coming to them because they have strayed from me! Destruction is coming to them because they have rebelled against me! I wish I could redeem them, but they tell lies about me.
14 Un tie Mani nepiesauc no sirds, kad tie kauc uz savām gultām. Tie sapulcējās labības un vīna dēļ bet Man tie turas pretī.
They do not cry out to me with sincere minds; instead they lie on their beds howling. They assemble together and gash themselves to gain grain and new wine, but they turn away from me.
15 Gan Es tos pamācu un stiprināju viņu elkoņus, bet tie domā ļaunu pret Mani.
I myself trained them and made them strong, but now they plot evil against me.
16 Tie griežas, bet ne uz to, kas augšā; tie ir kā viltīgs stops; viņu lielkungi kritīs caur zobenu viņu trakās mēles dēļ; tas būs viņu apsmiekls Ēģiptes zemē.
They turn, but not to the Most High; they are like a useless bow. Their leaders will be killed by the sword because of their cursing. Because of this they will be ridiculed in Egypt.
