Oseas 5
1 ¡Oigan esto, sacerdotes! ¡Atiendan, oh Casa de Israel! Presten atención, oh casa real. A ustedes afecta esta sentencia, porque fueron trampa en Mizpa, red tendida en la montaña Tabor,
"Listen to this, you priests. Listen, house of Israel, and give ear, house of the king. For the judgment is against you; for you have been a snare at Mizpah, and a net spread on Tabor.
2 y fosa cavada en Sitim. Yo los castigaré a todos.
The rebels are deep in slaughter; but I discipline all of them.
3 Conozco a Efraín, e Israel no se me oculta. Tú, Efraín, incitaste a la prostitución, e Israel se contaminó.
I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from me; for now, Ephraim, you have played the prostitute. Israel is defiled.
4 Sus obras no los dejan volver a su ʼElohim, porque un espíritu de prostitución está dentro de ellos, y no conocen a Yavé.
Their deeds won't allow them to turn to their God; for the spirit of prostitution is within them, and they do not know the LORD.
5 La soberbia de Israel testifica contra él mismo. Israel y Efraín tropezaron en su pecado, y Judá tropezará con ellos.
The pride of Israel testifies to his face. Therefore Israel and Ephraim will stumble in their iniquity. Judah also will stumble with them.
6 Con sus rebaños y manadas de ganado vacuno Irán a buscar a Yavé, pero no lo hallarán. Él se apartó de ellos.
They will go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they won't find him. He has withdrawn himself from them.
7 Ellos traicionaron a Yavé, porque engendraron hijos ilegítimos. Ahora los devorará la luna nueva junto con su tierra.
They are unfaithful to the LORD; for they have borne illegitimate children. Now the new moon will devour them with their fields.
8 ¡Toquen la trompeta en Gabaa y la trompeta en Ramá! ¡Toquen la alarma en Bet-avén! ¡Detrás de ti, oh Benjamín!
"Blow the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah. Sound a battle cry at Beth Aven, behind you, Benjamin.
9 Efraín será asolado el día del castigo. Entre las tribus de Israel declaro lo que es seguro.
Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of rebuke. Among the tribes of Israel, I have made known that which will surely be.
10 Los gobernantes de Judá son como los que desplazan linderos. Derramaré mi ira sobre ellos como el agua.
The princes of Judah are like those who remove a landmark. I will pour out my wrath on them like water.
11 Efraín está oprimido, sus derechos violados, porque quiso seguir mandatos.
Ephraim is oppressed, he is crushed in judgment; Because he is intent in his pursuit of idols.
12 Yo seré, pues, como polilla a Efraín, y como carcoma a la Casa de Judá.
Therefore I am to Ephraim like a moth, and to the house of Judah like rottenness.
13 Cuando Efraín vio su enfermedad, y Judá miró su llaga, entonces Efraín fue a Asiria y acudió al rey Jareb. Pero él no puede sanarlos, ni curar su llaga.
"When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah his wound, Then Ephraim went to Assyria, and sent to king Jareb: but he is not able to heal you, neither will he cure you of your wound.
14 Porque Yo seré como un león para Efraín, y como un leoncillo para la Casa de Judá. Yo, Yo mismo haré presa y me iré. La llevo, y no hay quien me la quite.
For I will be to Ephraim like a lion, and like a young lion to the house of Judah. I myself will tear in pieces and go away. I will carry off, and there will be no one to deliver.
15 Me iré y regresaré a mi lugar hasta que reconozcan su pecado y busquen mi rostro. En su aflicción me buscarán sinceramente.
I will go and return to my place, until they acknowledge their offense, and seek my face. In their affliction they will seek me earnestly."
