Osija 7
1 Kad lijeèim Izrailja, tada se pokazuje bezakonje Jefremovo i zloæa Samarijska; jer èine laž, i lupež ulazi, i napolju udara èeta.
When I have healed Israel, then shall the iniquity of Ephraim be revealed, and the wickedness of Samaria; for they have wrought falsehood: and a thief shall come in to him, [even] a robber spoiling in his way;
2 I ne govore u srcu svom da ja pamtim svako bezakonje njihovo; sada stoje oko njih djela njihova, preda mnom su.
that they may concert together as [men] singing in their heart: I remember all their wickedness: now have their own counsels compassed them about; they came before my face.
3 Nevaljalstvom svojim vesele cara i lažima svojim knezove.
They gladdened kings with their wickedness, and princes with their lies.
4 Svi èine preljubu; kao peæ su koju užari hljebar, koji prestane stražiti kad zamijesi tijesto pa dokle uskisne.
They are all adulterers, as an oven glowing with flame for hot-baking, on account of the kneading of the dough, until it is leavened.
5 Na dan cara našega razbolješe se knezovi od mijeha vina, i on pruži ruku svoju potsmjevaèima.
[In] the days of our kings, the princes began to be inflamed with wine: he stretched out his hand with pestilent fellows.
6 Jer na zasjede svoje upravljaju srce svoje, koje je kao peæ; hljebar njihov spava cijelu noæ, ujutru gori kao plamen ognjeni.
Therefore their hearts are inflamed as an oven, while they rage all the night: Ephraim is satisfied with sleep; the morning is come; he is burnt up as a flame of fire.
7 Svi su kao peæ ugrijani i proždiru svoje sudije; svi carevi njihovi padaju, nijedan izmeðu njih ne vièe k meni.
They are all heated like an oven, and have devoured their judges: all their kings are fallen; there was not amongst them one that called on me.
8 Jefrem se pomiješao s narodima; Jefrem je pogaèa neprevrnuta.
Ephraim is mixed amongst his people; Ephraim became a cake not turned.
9 Inostranci jedu mu silu, a on ne zna; sijede kose popadaju ga, a on ne zna.
Strangers devoured his strength, and he knew [it] not; and grey hairs came upon him, and he knew [it] not.
10 I ponositost Izrailjeva svjedoèi mu u oèi, ali se ne vraæaju ka Gospodu Bogu svojemu niti ga traže uza sve to.
And the pride of Israel shall be brought down before his face: yet they have not returned to the Lord their God, neither have they diligently sought him for all this.
11 I Jefrem je kao golub, lud, bezuman; zovu Misir, idu u Asirsku.
And Ephraim was as a silly dove, not having a heart: he called to Egypt, and they went to the Assyrians.
12 Kad otidu, razapeæu na njih mrežu svoju, kao ptice nebeske svuæi æu ih, karaæu ih kako je kazivano u zboru njihovu.
Whenever they shall go, I will cast my net upon them; I will bring them down as the birds of the sky, I will chasten them with the rumour of their [coming] affliction.
13 Teško njima, jer zaðoše od mene; pogibao æe im biti, jer me iznevjeriše; ja ih iskupih, a oni govoriše na me laž.
Woe to them! for they have started aside from me: they are cowards; for they have sinned against me: yet I redeemed them, but they spoke falsehoods against me.
14 Niti me prizivaše iz srca svojega, nego ridaše na odrima svojim; žita i vina radi skupljajuæi se otstupaju od mene.
And their hearts did not cry to me, but they howled on their beds: they pined for oil and wine.
15 Kad ih karah, ukrijepih im mišice; ali oni misliše zlo na me.
They were instructed by me, and I strengthened their arms; and they devised evils against me.
16 Vraæaju se, ali ne k višnjemu, postaše kao luk lažljiv; knezovi æe njihovi popadati od maèa s obijesti jezika svojega; to æe im biti potsmijeh u zemlji Misirskoj.
They turned aside to that which is not, they became as a bent bow: their princes shall fall by the sword, by reason of the unbridled state of their tongue: this is their setting at nothing in the land of Egypt.
