Oseas 2

1 “Di a tus hermanos: “¡Pueblo mío!” y a tus hermanas: “¡Mi amada!”

“Say to your brothers, ‘You are my people,’ and to your sister, ‘You have obtained mercy.’

2 ¡Discute con tu madre! Contad, porque no es mi mujer, tampoco soy su marido; y deja que aleje su prostitución de su rostro, y sus adulterios de entre sus pechos;

Judge your mother, judge: for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband. Let her remove her fornications from before her face and her adulteries from between her breasts.

3 para que no la desnude, y hacerla desnuda como en el día en que nació, y hacerla como un desierto, y la puso como tierra firme, y matarla de sed.

Otherwise, I may expose her nakedness and set her as on the day of her birth, and I may establish her as a wilderness and set her as an impassable land, and I may execute her with thirst.

4 En efecto, con sus hijos no tendré piedad, porque son hijos de la infidelidad.

And I will not have mercy on her sons, for they are the sons of fornications.

5 Porque su madre ha hecho de prostituta. La que los concibió lo ha hecho vergonzosamente; pues dijo: “Iré tras mis amantes”, que me dan mi pan y mi agua, mi lana y mi lino, mi aceite y mi bebida”.

For their mother has been fornicating; she who conceived them has been brought to ruin. For she said, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.’

6 Por lo tanto, he aquí que voy a cercar tu camino con espinas, y construiré un muro contra ella, que no puede encontrar su camino.

Because of this, behold, I will fence in your way with thorns, and I will surround it with a wall, and she will not find her paths.

7 Ella seguirá a sus amantes, pero no los alcanzará; y los buscará, pero no los encontrará. Entonces dirá: ‘Me iré y volveré con mi primer marido’, porque entonces era mejor conmigo que ahora’.

And she will pursue her lovers, but she will not obtain them, and she will seek them, but she will not find them, and she will say, ‘I will go and return to my first husband, because it was to some extent better for me then, than it is now.’

8 Porque no sabía que le había dado el grano, el vino nuevo y el aceite, y le multiplicaron la plata y el oro, que usaron para Baal.

And she did not know that I gave her grain and wine and oil, and that I increased her silver and gold, which they made into Baal.

9 Por lo tanto, recuperaré mi grano en su momento, y mi vino nuevo en su temporada, y arrancará mi lana y mi lino que debían cubrir su desnudez.

For this reason, I will turn back, and I will take away my grain in its time and my wine in its time, and I will set free my wool and my flax, which had covered her disgrace.

10 Ahora descubriré su lascivia a la vista de sus amantes, y nadie la librará de mi mano.

And now, I will reveal her foolishness by the eyes of her lovers, and no man will rescue her from my hand.

11 También haré que cesen todas sus celebraciones: sus fiestas, sus lunas nuevas, sus sábados y todas sus asambleas solemnes.

And I will cause all her joy to cease: her solemnities, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her feast dates.

12 Asolaré sus viñas y sus higueras, sobre la que ha dicho: “Estos son mis salarios que mis amantes me han dado”. y yo les haré un bosque, y los animales del campo los comerán.

And I will corrupt her vines and her fig trees, about which she said, ‘These rewards, they are mine, my lovers have given them to me.’ And I will place her in a narrow forest, and the beasts of the field will devour her.

13 Visitaré en ella los días de los baales, al que quemó incienso cuando se engalanó con sus pendientes y sus joyas, y fue tras sus amantes y se olvidaron de mí”, dice Yahvé.

And I will inflict on her the days of the Baals, for whom she burned incense, and ornamented herself with earrings and necklace, and went after her lovers, and forgot about me,” says the Lord.

14 “Por lo tanto, he aquí que la atraeré, y llevarla al desierto, y hablarle con ternura.

“Because of this, behold, I will attract her, and I will lead her into the wilderness, and I will speak to her heart.

15 Le daré viñedos desde allí, y el valle de Acor por una puerta de esperanza; y ella responderá allí como en los días de su juventud, y como en el día en que subió de la tierra de Egipto.

And I will give to her, from the same place, her vinedressers, and the valley of Achor as a passage of hope. And she will sing there as in the days of her youth, and as in the days of her ascension from the land of Egypt.

16 Será en ese día”, dice Yahvé, “que me llamarás ‘mi marido’, y ya no me llame ‘mi amo’.

And it will be in that day,” says the Lord, “that she will call me, ‘My Husband,’ and she will no longer call me, ‘My Baal.’

17 Porque quitaré de su boca los nombres de los baales, y ya no serán mencionados por su nombre.

And I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, and she will no longer remember their name.

18 Ese día haré un pacto para ellos con los animales del campo, y con las aves del cielo, y con los reptiles de la tierra. Romperé el arco, la espada y la batalla fuera de la tierra, y hará que se acuesten con seguridad.

And in that day, I will strike a deal with them, with the beasts of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the creatures of the earth. And I will crush the bow and the sword, and I will wipe away war from the earth. And I will let them sleep securely.

19 Te desposaré conmigo para siempre. Sí, te desposaré conmigo con rectitud, con justicia, con bondad amorosa y con compasión.

And I will betroth you to me forever, and I will betroth you to me in justice and judgment, and in mercy and compassion.

20 Incluso te desposaré conmigo con fidelidad; y conocerás a Yahvé.

And I will wed you to me in faith, and you will know that I am the Lord.

21 En ese día responderé”, dice Yahvé. “Responderé a los cielos, y responderán a la tierra;

And this will happen in that day: I will listen closely,” says the Lord. “I will hear the heavens, and they will hear the earth.

22 y la tierra responderá al grano, al vino nuevo y al aceite; y responderán a Jezreel.

And the land will pay attention to the grain, and the wine, and the oil; and these will hear Jezreel.

23 La sembraré en la tierra; y me apiadaré de la que no había obtenido misericordia; y diré a los que no eran mi pueblo: “Vosotros sois mi pueblo”. y dirán: “Tú eres mi Dios””.

And I will plant her for me in the land, and I will have mercy on her, though she had been called Without Mercy. And I will say to Not My People, ‘You are my people,’ and they will say, ‘You are my God.’”
