Hosea 7
1 when I heal Israel, Ephraim's sins will be exposed, together with the evil actions of Samaria. They deal in lies; they are thieves who break into homes and rob people on the outside.
cum sanare vellem Israhel revelata est iniquitas Ephraim et malitia Samariae quia operati sunt mendacium et fur ingressus est spolians latrunculus foris
2 But they don't realize that I remember all of their wickedness. Their sins surround them and are always before me.
et ne forte dicant in cordibus suis omnem malitiam eorum me recordatum nunc circumdederunt eos adinventiones suae coram facie mea factae sunt
3 They make their king happy with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
in malitia sua laetificaverunt regem et in mendaciis suis principes
4 All of them are adulterers, burning with lust like an oven whose fire stays hot, even though it is not tended by the baker, having left the dough to rise after kneading.
omnes adulterantes quasi clibanus succensus a coquente quievit paululum civitas a commixtione fermenti donec fermentaretur totum
5 On the king's birthday the princes drink so much they are sick, while he joins in with those who mock.
dies regis nostri coeperunt principes furere a vino extendit manum suam cum inlusoribus
6 Their minds are fired up like an oven; they go to him with their plots. All through the night their anger burns; in the morning it blazes out uncontrollably.
quia adplicuerunt quasi clibanum cor suum cum insidiaretur eis tota nocte dormivit coquens eos mane ipse succensus quasi ignis flammae
7 All of them are as hot as a burning oven, and they exhaust their leaders. All of their kings have fallen, and not one of them calls on me.
omnes calefacti sunt quasi clibanus et devoraverunt iudices suos omnes reges eorum ceciderunt non est qui clamet in eis ad me
8 Ephraim mixes with the foreign nations; he is as useless as half-baked bread!
Ephraim in populis ipse commiscebatur Ephraim factus est subcinericius qui non reversatur
9 Foreigners drain his strength, and he doesn't even realize it. His hair is turning grey and he doesn't even notice.
comederunt alieni robur eius et ipse nescivit sed et cani effusi sunt in eo et ipse ignoravit
10 Israel's pride testifies against him, but for all of this he still does not return to the Lord their God or look for him.
et humiliabitur superbia Israhel in facie eius nec reversi sunt ad Dominum Deum suum et non quaesierunt eum in omnibus his
11 Ephraim is like a dove, foolish and without sense—calling to Egypt, then going to Assyria.
et factus est Ephraim quasi columba seducta non habens cor Aegyptum invocabant ad Assyrios abierunt
12 When they go I will throw my net over them; I will bring them down like wild birds. When I hear them flocking together I will punish them.
et cum profecti fuerint expandam super eos rete meum quasi volucrem caeli detraham eos caedam eos secundum auditionem coetus eorum
13 What disaster is coming to them because they have strayed from me! Destruction is coming to them because they have rebelled against me! I wish I could redeem them, but they tell lies about me.
vae eis quoniam recesserunt a me vastabuntur quia praevaricati sunt in me et ego redemi eos et ipsi locuti sunt contra me mendacia
14 They do not cry out to me with sincere minds; instead they lie on their beds howling. They assemble together and gash themselves to gain grain and new wine, but they turn away from me.
et non clamaverunt ad me in corde suo sed ululabant in cubilibus suis super triticum et vinum ruminabant recesserunt a me
15 I myself trained them and made them strong, but now they plot evil against me.
et ego erudivi et confortavi brachia eorum et in me cogitaverunt malitiam
16 They turn, but not to the Most High; they are like a useless bow. Their leaders will be killed by the sword because of their cursing. Because of this they will be ridiculed in Egypt.
reversi sunt ut essent absque iugo facti sunt quasi arcus dolosus cadent in gladio principes eorum a furore linguae suae ista subsannatio eorum in terra Aegypti
