< Osija 6 >
1 Hodite da se vratimo ka Gospodu; jer on razdrije, i iscijeliæe nas, rani, i zaviæe nas.
"Come, and let us return to the LORD; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds.
2 Povratiæe nam život do dva dana, treæi dan podignuæe nas, i živjeæemo pred njim.
After two days he will revive us. On the third day he will raise us up, and we will live before him.
3 Tada æemo poznati Gospoda i sve æemo ga više poznavati; jer mu je izlazak ureðen kao zora i doæi æe nam kao dažd, kao pozni dažd koji natapa zemlju.
Let us acknowledge the LORD. Let us press on to know the LORD. As surely as the sun rises, The LORD will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth."
4 Što da ti uèinim, Jefreme? što da ti uèinim, Juda? jer je dobrota vaša kao oblak jutarnji i kao rosa koja u zoru padne, pa je nestane.
"Ephraim, what shall I do to you? Judah, what shall I do to you? For your love is like a morning cloud, and like the dew that disappears early.
5 Zato ih sjekoh preko proroka i ubijah rijeèima usta svojih, i svjetlost sudova tvojih izide.
Therefore I have cut them to pieces with the prophets; I killed them with the words of my mouth, and my judgment goes forth as the light.
6 Jer je meni milost mila a ne žrtva, i poznavanje Boga veæma nego žrtva paljenica.
For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
7 Ali oni prestupiše zavjet kao Adam; tu me iznevjeriše.
But they, like Adam, have broken the covenant. They were unfaithful to me, there.
8 Galad je grad onijeh koji èine bezakonje, po njemu su krvavi tragovi.
Gilead is a city of evildoers; it is stained with blood.
9 A družina je sveštenièka kao èeta koja doèekuje ljude, ubijaju na putu u Sihem, èine grdilo.
As gangs of robbers wait to ambush a man, so the company of priests murder in the way toward Shechem, committing shameful crimes.
10 U domu Izrailjevu vidim strahotu; ondje je kurvanje Jefremovo, Izrailj se oskvrni.
In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing. There is prostitution in Ephraim. Israel is defiled.
11 I tebi je, Juda, pripravljena žetva, kad vratim roblje naroda svojega.
"For you also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I restore the fortunes of my people.
