होशेय 11
“Before the Israeli [people] became a nation [MET], I loved them [like a man loves] his son, and I called them out of Egypt.
But while I continued to call them, they [continued to] turn away from me more and more. They offered sacrifices to their statues of Baal, and they burned incense to [honor] them.
3 ३ तरी तो मीच ज्याने एफ्राईमास चालणे शिकविले तो मीच ज्याने त्यास हात धरुन उभे केले पण त्यांना माहीत नव्हते की मी त्यांची काळजी घेत होतो.
[The people of] Israel were [like a little boy] [MET], and [it was as though] it was I who taught them to walk, holding them by their hands. But they did not realize that it was I who was taking care of them.
4 ४ मी त्यांना मानवता आणि प्रेमाच्या दोरीने चालवत होतो मी त्यांना त्यासारखा होतो जो तोंडावरचे जू काढतो आणि मी खाली वाकून त्यांना खाऊ घातले.
[It was as though I fastened] ropes [around them] to lead them, while I loved them and was kind to them. [It was as though they were young oxen] [MET], and I lifted the yoke from their necks and bent down to feed them.
But the people of Israel will become [slaves] again, like they were in Egypt, and [the people of] Assyria will [RHQ] rule over them, because the people of Israel refused to repent.
6 ६ त्यांच्या नगरावर तलवार चालेल आणि ती त्याच्या दाराचे अडसर नष्ट करील, त्यांचा नाश त्यांच्या स्वत: च्या योजनांमुळे होईल.
[Their enemies] will use their swords [to attack] the cities in Israel and will destroy the bars in the gates [of the city walls]. [As a result], the people of Israeli will not be able to accomplish the things that they planned to do.
7 ७ माझ्या लोकांस मजपासून वळवण्याचा निश्चय केला आहे तरी ते त्यांना जो मी परमप्रधान आहे त्याकडे बोलवितात तरी त्यापैकी कोणीही मला गौरव देत नाही.
My people are determined to (turn away from/abandon) me. They say that I am the great all-powerful God, but they do not honor me at all.
8 ८ हे एफ्राईमे, मी तुझा त्याग कसा करु? हे इस्राएला, मी तुला शत्रुच्या हाती कसा देऊ? मी तुला अदमासारखे कसे करु? मी तुला सबोयिमासारखे कसे करु? माझे हृदय खळबळले आहे, माझी करुणा ढवळली गेली आहे.
[You people of] Israel, I certainly do not want to [RHQ] abandon you and allow [your enemies] to capture you. I do not [RHQ] want to act toward you like I acted toward Admah and Zeboiim, [cities that I completely destroyed when I destroyed Sodom]. I [SYN] have changed my mind [about punishing you]; my desire to pity you has increased.
9 ९ मी माझा भयानक राग अमलात आणणार नाही मी एफ्राईमाचा पुन्हा नाश करणार नाही कारण मी देव आहे आणि मनुष्य नाही तुमच्यामध्ये असणारा मी पवित्र आहे मी क्रोधाने येणार नाही.
Although I am extremely angry, I do not want to punish you severely; I do not want to (devastate/completely ruin) Israel. [Humans would easily decide to do that], but I am God, not a human. I, the Holy One, am with you; although I am very angry [with you], I will not [destroy you].
10 १० ते माझ्यामागे चालतील मी परमेश्वर सिंहासारखी गर्जना करेन मी खरोखर गर्जेन आणि लोक पश्चिमेकडून थरथरत येतील.
You will follow me when I roar like [SIM] a lion; when I roar, [some of you] my children will tremble as you return [to Israel] from [the islands and seacoasts toward] the west.
11 ११ ते मिसरातून पक्षासारखे आणि अश्शूरातून कबुतरा प्रमाणे थरथरत येतील मी त्यांना त्यांच्या घरात बसवीन असे परमेश्वर म्हणतो.
[Some of] you will come swiftly from Egypt like [a flock of] birds; [others] will return from Assyria, like doves. I will enable you to live in your homes [in Israel] again. [That will surely happen, because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
12 १२ एफ्राईम मला लबाडीने आणि इस्राएलचे घराणे कपटाने वेढले, पण यहूदा आतापर्यंत देवाबरोबर, जो पवित्र आहे, त्याबरोबर विश्वासू बनून आहे.
[Yahweh says, “The people of] Israel have (surrounded me with lies/constantly told lies to me). And the people of Judah have [also] turned/rebelled against me, their God, the Holy One who always does what I promise to do, and the people of Judah worship other gods.”
