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 give healing to Israel, Then revealed is the iniquity of Ephraim, And the wickedness of Samaria, For they have wrought falsehood, And a thief doth come in, Stript off hath a troop in the street,
2 Un tie nedomā savā sirdī, ka Es visu viņu ļaunumu pieminu. Bet nu viņu darbi apmetās pret tiem, tie ir Manā priekšā.
And they do not say to their heart, [That] all their evil I have remembered, Now compassed them have their doings, Over-against My face they have been.
3 Ar savu ļaunumu tie iepriecina ķēniņu un lielkungus ar saviem meliem.
With their wickedness they make glad a king, And with their lies — princes.
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, Like a burning oven of a baker, He ceaseth from stirring up after kneading the dough, till its leavening.
5 Mūsu ķēniņa dienā lielkungi paliek vāji no vīna karstuma; viņš sniedz savu roku smējējiem.
A day of our king! Princes have polluted themselves [with] the poison of wine, He hath drawn out his hand with scorners.
6 Jo tie ar savu sirdi dodās uz viltību kā ceplī. Viņu cepējs guļ cauru nakti, rītā viņš deg kā uguns liesmās.
For they have drawn near, As an oven [is] their heart, In their lying in wait all the night sleep doth their baker, Morning! he is burning as a flaming fire.
7 Tie visi ir iekarsuši kā ceplis un aprij savus tiesnešus, visi viņu ķēniņi krīt, neviens no tiem mani nepiesauc.
All of them are warm as an oven, And they have devoured their judges, All their kings have fallen, There is none calling unto Me among them.
8 Efraīms jaucās ar tautām, Efraīms ir rausis, ko neapgriež.
Ephraim! among peoples he mixeth himself, Ephraim hath been a cake unturned.
9 Sveši norij viņa spēku, un viņš to nemana, arī sirmums viņam ir uznācis, un viņš to neatzīst.
Devoured have strangers his power, And he hath not known, Also old age hath sprinkled [itself] on him, And he hath not known.
10 Un Israēla gods dod liecību pret viņa vaigu, bet tie neatgriežas pie Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, un tomēr viņu nemeklē.
And humbled hath been the excellency of Israel to his face, And they have not turned back unto Jehovah their God, Nor have they sought Him for all this.
11 Jo Efraīms ir kā nejēdzīgs balodis bez prāta; Ēģipti tie piesauc, pie Asura tie staigā.
And Ephraim is as a simple dove without heart, Egypt they called on — [to] Asshur they have gone.
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 spread over them My net, As the fowl of the heavens I bring them down, I chastise them as their company hath heard.
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.
Woe to them, for they wandered from Me, Destruction to them, for they transgressed against Me, And I — I ransom them, and they have spoken lies against 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.
And have not cried unto Me with their heart, but howl on their beds, For corn and new wine they assemble themselves, They turn aside against Me.
15 Gan Es tos pamācu un stiprināju viņu elkoņus, bet tie domā ļaunu pret Mani.
And I instructed — I strengthened their arms, And concerning Me they think evil!
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 back — not to the Most High, They have been as a deceitful bow, Fall by sword do their princes, From the insolence of their tongue, This [is] their derision in the land of Egypt!
