هُوشَع 1

١ 1 قَوْلُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي صَارَ إِلَى هُوشَعَ بْنِ بِئِيرِي، فِي أَيَّامِ عُزِّيَّا وَيُوثَامَ وَآحَازَ وَحَزَقِيَّا مُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا، وَفِي أَيَّامِ يَرُبْعَامَ بْنِ يُوآشَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

This is the word of Yahweh that came to Hosea son of Beeri in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel.

٢ 2 أَوَّلَ مَا كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ هُوشَعَ، قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِهُوشَعَ: «ٱذْهَبْ خُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ ٱمْرَأَةَ زِنًى وَأَوْلَادَ زِنًى، لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَرْضَ قَدْ زَنَتْ زِنًى تَارِكَةً ٱلرَّبَّ».

When Yahweh spoke at first through Hosea, he said to him, “Go, take for yourself a wife who is a prostitute. She will have children who are the result of her prostitution. For the land is committing great prostitution by forsaking Yahweh.”

٣ 3 فَذَهَبَ وَأَخَذَ جُومَرَ بِنْتَ دِبْلَايِمَ، فَحَبِلَتْ وَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ ٱبْنًا،

So Hosea went and married Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.

٤ 4 فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ: «ٱدْعُ ٱسْمَهُ يَزْرَعِيلَ، لِأَنَّنِي بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ أُعَاقِبُ بَيْتَ يَاهُو عَلَى دَمِ يَزْرَعِيلَ، وَأُبِيدُ مَمْلَكَةَ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

Yahweh said to Hosea, “Call his name Jezreel. For in a little while I will punish the house of Jehu for the bloodshed at Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel.

٥ 5 وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنِّي أَكْسِرُ قَوْسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي وَادِي يَزْرَعِيلَ».

It will happen on the day that I break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel.”

٦ 6 ثُمَّ حَبِلَتْ أَيْضًا وَوَلَدَتْ بِنْتًا، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «ٱدْعُ ٱسْمَهَا لُورُحَامَةَ، لِأَنِّي لَا أَعُودُ أَرْحَمُ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَيْضًا، بَلْ أَنْزِعُهُمْ نَزْعًا.

Gomer conceived again and bore a daughter. Then Yahweh said to Hosea, “Call her name Lo-Ruhamah, for I will no longer have mercy on the house of Israel, that I should forgive them at all.

٧ 7 وَأَمَّا بَيْتُ يَهُوذَا فَأَرْحَمُهُمْ وَأُخَلِّصُهُمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ، وَلَا أُخَلِّصُهُمْ بِقَوْسٍ وَبِسَيْفٍ وَبِحَرْبٍ وَبِخَيْلٍ وَبِفُرْسَانٍ».

Yet I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and I will save them by myself, Yahweh their God. I will not save them by bow, sword, battle, horses, or horsemen.”

٨ 8 ثُمَّ فَطَمَتْ لُورُحَامَةَ وَحَبِلَتْ فَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا،

Now after Gomer had weaned Lo-Ruhamah, she conceived and bore another son.

٩ 9 فَقَالَ: «ٱدْعُ ٱسْمَهُ لُوعَمِّي، لِأَنَّكُمْ لَسْتُمْ شَعْبِي وَأَنَا لَا أَكُونُ لَكُمْ.

Then Yahweh said, “Call his name Lo-Ammi, for you are not my people, and I am not your God.

١٠ 10 لَكِنْ يَكُونُ عَدَدُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَرَمْلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلَّذِي لَا يُكَالُ وَلَا يُعَدُّ، وَيَكُونُ عِوَضًا عَنْ أَنْ يُقَالَ لَهُمْ: لَسْتُمْ شَعْبِي، يُقَالُ لَهُمْ: أَبْنَاءُ ٱللهِ ٱلْحَيِّ.

Yet the number of the people of Israel will be like the sand of the seashore, which cannot be measured or counted. It will be that where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,' it will be said to them, 'You are people of the living God.'

١١ 11 وَيُجْمَعُ بَنُو يَهُوذَا وَبَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعًا وَيَجْعَلُونَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ رَأْسًا وَاحِدًا، وَيَصْعَدُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّ يَوْمَ يَزْرَعِيلَ عَظِيمٌ.

The people of Judah and the people of Israel will be gathered together. They will appoint one leader for themselves, and they will go up from the land, for great will be the day of Jezreel.
