Oseas 2

1 Decíd a vuestros hermanos: Ammi; y a vuestras hermanas: Ruhama.

Say to your brothers, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah.

2 Pleitéad con vuestra madre, pleitéad; porque ella no es mi mujer, ni yo su marido; y quite sus fornicaciones de su rostro, y sus adulterios de entre sus pechos:

Take up the cause against your mother, take it up, for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband; let her put away her loose ways from her face, and her false ways from between her breasts;

3 Porque yo no la despoje desnuda, y la haga tornar como el día en que nació, y la ponga como un desierto, y la ponga como tierra seca, y la mate de sed.

For fear that I may take away her robe from her, making her uncovered as in the day of her birth; making her like a waste place and a dry land, causing her death through need of water.

4 Ni tendré misericordia de sus hijos; porque son hijos de fornicaciones.

And I will have no mercy on her children, for they are the children of her loose ways.

5 Porque su madre fornicó: avergonzóse la que los engendró, porque dijo: Iré tras mis enamorados, que me dan mi pan y mi agua, mi lana y mi lino, mi aceite y mi bebida.

For their mother has been untrue; she who gave them birth has done things of shame, for she said, I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my linen, my oil and my wine.

6 Por tanto he aquí que yo cerco tu camino con espinas, y cercaré con seto, y no hallará sus caminos.

For this cause I will put thorns in her road, building up a wall round her so that she may not go on her way.

7 Y seguirá sus enamorados, y no los alcanzará: buscarlos ha, y no los hallará: entonces dirá: Iré, y volverme he a mi primer marido; porque mejor me iba entonces que ahora.

And if she goes after her lovers she will not overtake them; if she makes search for them she will not see them; then will she say, I will go back to my first husband, for then it was better for me than now.

8 Y ella no sabía que yo le daba el trigo, y el vino, y el aceite; y les multipliqué la plata y el oro con que hicieron a Baal.

For she had no knowledge that it was I who gave her the grain and the wine and the oil, increasing her silver and gold which they gave to the Baal.

9 Por tanto yo tornaré, y tomaré mi trigo a su tiempo, y mi vino a su sazón, y quitaré mi lana y mi lino, que había dado para cubrir su desnudez.

So I will take away again my grain in its time and my wine, and I will take away my wool and my linen with which her body might have been covered.

10 Y ahora yo descubriré su vileza delante de los ojos de sus enamorados, y nadie la escapará de mi mano.

And now I will make her shame clear before the eyes of her lovers, and no one will take her out of my hand.

11 Y haré cesar todo su gozo, su fiesta, su nueva luna, y su sábado, y todas sus festividades.

And I will put an end to all her joy, her feasts, her new moons, and her Sabbaths, and all her regular meetings.

12 Y haré talar su vid y su higuera, de que ha dicho: Mi salario me son, que me han dado mis enamorados. Y ponerlas he por monte, y comerlas han las bestias del campo.

And I will make waste her vines and her fig-trees, of which she has said, These are the payments which my lovers have made to me; and I will make them a waste of trees, and the beasts of the field will take them for food.

13 Y visitaré sobre ella los tiempos de los Baales, a los cuales incensaba, y adornábase de sus zarcillos y de sus joyeles, y se iba tras sus enamorados, olvidada de mí, dice Jehová.

And I will give her punishment for the days of the Baals, to whom she has been burning perfumes, when she made herself fair with her nose-rings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, giving no thought to me, says the Lord.

14 Por tanto he aquí que yo la induciré, y la llevaré al desierto, y hablaré a su corazón.

For this cause I will make her come into the waste land and will say words of comfort to her.

15 Y darle he sus viñas desde allí, y el valle de Acor en puerta de esperanza; y allí cantará como en los tiempos de su juventud, y como en el día de su subida de la tierra de Egipto.

And I will give her vine-gardens from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will give her answer there as in the days when she was young, and as in the time when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

16 Y será que en aquel tiempo, dice Jehová, me llamarás: Marido mío; y nunca más me llamarás: Baalí.

And in that day, says the Lord, you will say to me, Ishi; and you will never again give me the name of Baali;

17 Porque quitaré de su boca los nombres de los Baales, y nunca más serán mentados por su nombre.

For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and never again will she say their names.

18 Y haré por ellos concierto en aquel tiempo con las bestias del campo, y con las aves del cielo, y con las serpientes de la tierra; y quebraré arco, y espada, y batalla de la tierra, y hacerlos he dormir seguros.

And in that day I will make an agreement for them with the beasts of the field and the birds of heaven and the things which go low on the earth; I will put an end to the bow and the sword and war in all the land, and will make them take their rest in peace.

19 Y desposarte he conmigo para siempre; desposarte he conmigo en justicia, y juicio, y misericordia, y miseraciones.

And I will take you as my bride for ever; truly, I will take you as my bride in righteousness and in right judging, in love and in mercies.

20 Y desposarte he conmigo en fe, y conocerás a Jehová.

I will take you as my bride in good faith, and you will have knowledge of the Lord.

21 Y será que en aquel tiempo yo responderé, dice Jehová, yo responderé a los cielos, y ellos responderán a la tierra.

And it will be, in that day, says the Lord, that I will give an answer to the heavens, and the heavens to the earth;

22 Y la tierra responderá al trigo, y al vino, y al aceite; y ellos responderán a Jezrael.

And the earth will give its answer to the grain and the wine and the oil, and they will give an answer to Jezreel;

23 Y sembrarla he para mí en la tierra, y habré misericordia de Lo-ruhama; y diré a Lo-ammi: Pueblo mío tú; y él dirá: Dios mío.

And I will put her as seed in the earth, and I will have mercy on her to whom no mercy was given; and I will say to those who were not my people, You are my people, and they will say, My God.
