Hozejas 8
1 Liec bazūni pie savas mutes; Viņš nāk kā ērglis pret Tā Kunga namu, tādēļ ka tie Manu derību pārlauzuši un no Manas bauslības atkāpušies.
Let there be a trumpet in thy throat like an eagle upon the house of the Lord: because they have transgressed my covenant, and have violated my law.
2 Tad tie uz Mani kliegs: mans Dievs! Mēs, Israēls, mēs Tevi pazīstam.
They shall call upon me: O my God, we, Israel, know thee.
3 Israēls atmet labu, ienaidnieks viņu vajās.
Israel hath cast off the thing that is good, the enemy shall pursue him.
4 Tie ieceļ ķēniņus, bet bez Manis; tie ieceļ virsniekus, bet Es tos nepazīstu, no sava sudraba un no sava zelta tie sev taisa dievekļus, lai tas top izdeldēts.
They have reigned, but not by me: they have been princes, and I knew not: of their silver, and their gold they have made idols to themselves, that they might perish.
5 Tavs teļš, Samarija, ir riebīgs; Mana dusmība pār tiem iedegusies, - cik ilgi tie nevar palikt nenoziedzīgi?
Thy calf, O Samaria, is cast off, my wrath is kindled against them. How long will they be incapable of being cleansed?
6 Jo arī tas ir no Israēla, kalējs to ir taisījis, un tas nav nekāds dievs; tāpēc Samarijas teļš taps par gruvešiem.
For itself also is the invention of Israel: a workman made it, and it is no god: for the calf of Samaria shall be turned to spiders’ webs.
7 Jo tie sēj vēju un pļaus auku; viņu druvas necelsies, un kas izplaukst, tas nedos miltus, un jebšu tas ko dotu, tomēr sveši to aprīs.
For they shall sow wind, and reap a whirlwind, there is no standing stalk in it, the bud shall yield no meal; and if it should yield, strangers shall eat it.
8 Israēls top aprīts; tie ir starp pagāniem kā trauks, ko neviens negrib,
Israel is swallowed up: now is he become among the nations like an unclean vessel.
9 Tāpēc ka tie skrien pie Asura, kā meža ēzelis, kas skrien par sevi; Efraīms sader drauģeļus par maksu.
For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath given gifts to his lovers.
10 Kad tie nu saderās(nolīgst sabiedrotos) starp pagāniem, tad tūlīt arī es tos sapulcināšu, un tiem drīz uzies raizes no tā valdnieku ķēniņa nastas.
But even though they shall have hired the nations, now will I gather them together: and they shall rest a while from the burden of the king, and the princes.
11 Jo Efraīms ir vairojis altārus par apgrēkošanos, viņam altāri palikuši par apgrēkošanos.
Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin: altars are become to him unto sin.
12 Es tam uzrakstīju lielu pulku savu baušļu, bet tie tapa turēti kā sveša lieta.
I shall write to him my manifold laws, which have been accounted as foreign.
13 Par upuru dāvanu tie gan gaļu upurē un to ēd, bet Tam Kungam nav labs prāts pie tiem; un Viņš pieminēs viņu noziegumus un piemeklēs viņu grēkus; tie griežas atpakaļ uz Ēģipti.
They shall offer victims, they shall sacrifice flesh, and shall eat it, and the Lord will not receive them: now will he remember their iniquity, and will visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
14 Jo Israēls ir aizmirsis savu Radītāju un cēlis pilis, un Jūda vairo stipras pilsētas, bet Es sūtīšu uguni viņu pilsētās, tas aprīs viņu pilis.
And Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and hath built temples: and Juda hath built many fenced cities: and I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the houses thereof.
