Hozejas 9
1 Nepriecājies, Israēl, ar gavilēšanu kā tās tautas, jo tu dzen maucību, atkāpdamies no sava Dieva, tu mīļo mauku algu uz visiem labības kloniem.
Rejoice not, O Israel, for gladness, as other people; for thou art gone astray, unfaithful to thy God: thou hast loved the wages of sin upon every corn-filled threshing-floor.
2 Klons un eļļas spaids viņus nemielos un jaunais vīns tos pievils.
The threshing-floor and the wine-press shall not feed them, and the new wine shall deceive them.
3 Tie nepaliks Tā Kunga zemē, bet Efraīms griezīsies atpakaļ uz Ēģipti, un Asīrijā tie ēdīs nešķīstu.
They shall not dwell in the land of the Lord; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and in Assyria will they eat unclean things.
4 Tie Tam Kungam nenesīs dzeramus upurus no vīna, un viņu kaujamie upuri viņam nepatiks; tie viņiem būs kā bēru maize. Visi, kas to ēd, apgānās, jo viņu maize ir priekš viņiem pašiem, un nenāk Tā Kunga namā.
They shall not pour out wine to the Lord, and [their offerings] shall not be pleasing unto him; their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for this their food can only be for themselves, it shall not come into the house of the Lord.
5 Ko tad jūs darīsiet svētkos un Tā Kunga svētā dienā?
What will ye do on the day of the appointed festival, and on the day of the feast of the Lord?
6 Jo redzi, tiem jāaiziet tā posta dēļ, Ēģipte tos sapulcinās, Memfisa viņus apraks. Nātres mantos viņu sudraba dārgumus, ērkšķi būs viņu dzīvokļos.
For, lo, they are gone forth because of the desolation: Egypt will gather them up, Moph will bury them: the pleasant chambers for their silver, —these shall nettles take possession of; thorns shall [grow] in their tents.
7 Piemeklēšanas dienas nākušas, atmaksāšanas dienas ir klāt, Israēls to samanīs! Tie pravieši ir ģeķi, tie gara vīri ir traki, - visa tava lielā nozieguma un lielā naida dēļ.
Come are the days of the visitation, come are the days of thy recompense; this shall Israel experience: a fool was the prophet, mad the inspired man, because of the greatness of thy iniquity, and the great hatefulness.
8 Efraīms lūko manam Dievam garām, un pravieši ir palikuši par slazda valgiem uz visiem viņa ceļiem, naids ir viņu dieva namā.
The watchman of Ephraim with my God, the prophet, was a snare of the fowler on all his ways, a hateful thing in the house of his god.
9 Tie ir dziļi maitājušies tā kā Ģibejas dienās; viņš pieminēs viņu noziegumu, viņš piemeklēs viņu grēkus.
They are deeply corrupt, as in the days of Gib'ah: he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.
10 Es atradu Israēli kā vīna ogu ķekarus tuksnesī, Es ieraudzīju jūsu tēvus kā pirmajus augļus pie vīģes koka; bet tie nogāja pie BaālPeora un padevās tam bezkaunīgam un tapa tik neganti kā viņu drauģeļi.
Like grapes in the wilderness had I found Israel; as the first ripe fruit on the fig-tree in the first of the season had I seen your fathers; but they too went to Ba'al-pe'or: and devoted themselves unto that shameful idol, and became abominations as those they loved.
11 Efraīma godība aizskries kā putns, ka tur ne dzemdēs, nedz taps grūtas, nedz ieņems.
As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird: there is no more birth, and no pregnancy, and no conception.
12 Un jebšu tie savus bērnus uzaudzinātu, tomēr Es tiem tos gribu laupīt, ka cilvēku neatliek. Ak vai, tiem, kad Es no tiem būšu atstājies!
But though they were to bring up their children, yet would I bereave them, that there should be no man: yea, woe also to themselves, when I depart from them!
13 Efraīms, ko Es biju izredzējis, būt par Tiru, bija stādīts skaistā vietā, bet Efraīmam savi bērni jaiznes slepkavam.
Ephraim, as I have seen him like Tyre, planted in a pleasant meadow, —yet this Ephraim shall lead forth to the murderer his children.
14 Dod tiem, ak Kungs! Ko lai Tu dodi? Dod tiem neauglīgas miesas un izsīkušas krūtis.
Give them, O Lord, what thou wilt give! give them a miscarrying womb and dried-up breasts.
15 Visa viņu negantība ir Gilgalā, tur Es tos ienīdēju. Viņu ļauno darbu dēļ Es tos izdzīšu no Sava nama, Es joprojām tos vairs nemīļošu; - visi viņu lielkungi ir atkāpēji.
All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I [learnt to] hate them; for the wickedness of their doings will I drive them out of my house: I will love them no farther; all their princes are rebels.
16 Efraīms ir sasists, viņu sakne ir izkaltusi; tie nenesīs nekādus augļus; un jebšu tie dzemdinātu, tomēr Es viņu miesas mīlulīšus gribu nokaut.
Smitten is Ephraim, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit; yea, though they should bring forth, yet would I slay the beloved fruit of their body.
17 Mans Dievs tos atmetīs, tāpēc ka tie Viņam neklausīja, un tie būs bēguļi starp tautām.
My God will reject them, because they did not hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
