< Oséias 3 >

1 E o Senhor me disse: Vae outra vez, ama uma mulher, amada de seu amigo, comtudo adultera, como o Senhor ama os filhos de Israel; mas elles olham para outros deuses, e amam os frascos das uvas.
Then Yahweh said to me, “Go and show to your wife that you still love her, even though she has been committing adultery with another man who loves her. [That will show that] I still love the people of Israel, even though they worship other gods/idols and eat raisin cakes [in feasts that honor those gods].”
2 E a comprei para mim por quinze dinheiros de prata, e um homer de cevada, e meio homer de cevada;
[My wife had become a slave, ] but I bought her for (6 ounces/179 grams) of silver and ten bushels of barley.
3 E lhe disse: Tu ficarás para mim muitos dias (não fornicarás, nem serás de outro homem), e tambem eu ficarei para ti.
Then I said to her, “You must wait for many days [before we sleep together] [EUP]. During that time, you must not be a prostitute, and you must not have sex with any other man; but I will live with you.”
4 Porque os filhos de Israel ficarão por muitos dias sem rei, e sem principe, e sem sacrificio, e sem estatua, e sem ephod, e sem teraphim.
[Our doing that will show that] in the same way, the people of Israel will not have a king and [other] leaders for many years. They will not offer sacrifices or [have sacred stone] pillars, no sacred vest [for the Supreme Priest], and no idols!
5 Depois tornarão os filhos de Israel, e buscarão ao Senhor seu Deus, e a David, seu rei; e temerão ao Senhor, e á sua bondade, no fim dos dias.
But later, the people of Israel will return to Yahweh their God and [be guided by him and] by a king who is a descendant of [King] David. In the last/future days they will come to Yahweh, revering him and trembling [in his presence], and he will bless them.
