Hosea 6
1 “Come! Let’s return to Yahweh; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds.
Hodite da se vratimo ka Gospodu; jer on razdrije, i iscijeliæe nas, rani, i zaviæe nas.
2 After two days he will revive us. On the third day he will raise us up, and we will live before him.
Povratiæe nam život do dva dana, treæi dan podignuæe nas, i živjeæemo pred njim.
3 Let’s acknowledge Yahweh. Let’s press on to know Yahweh. As surely as the sun rises, Yahweh will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth.”
Tada æemo poznati Gospoda i sve æemo ga više poznavati; jer mu je izlazak ureðen kao zora i doæi æe nam kao dažd, kao pozni dažd koji natapa zemlju.
4 “Ephraim, what shall I do to you? Judah, what shall I do to you? For your love is like a morning cloud, and like the dew that disappears early.
Što da ti uèinim, Jefreme? što da ti uèinim, Juda? jer je dobrota vaša kao oblak jutarnji i kao rosa koja u zoru padne, pa je nestane.
5 Therefore I have cut them to pieces with the prophets; I killed them with the words of my mouth. Your judgments are like a flash of lightning.
Zato ih sjekoh preko proroka i ubijah rijeèima usta svojih, i svjetlost sudova tvojih izide.
6 For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
Jer je meni milost mila a ne žrtva, i poznavanje Boga veæma nego žrtva paljenica.
7 But they, like Adam, have broken the covenant. They were unfaithful to me there.
Ali oni prestupiše zavjet kao Adam; tu me iznevjeriše.
8 Gilead is a city of those who work iniquity; it is stained with blood.
Galad je grad onijeh koji èine bezakonje, po njemu su krvavi tragovi.
9 As gangs of robbers wait to ambush a man, so the company of priests murder on the path toward Shechem, committing shameful crimes.
A družina je sveštenièka kao èeta koja doèekuje ljude, ubijaju na putu u Sihem, èine grdilo.
10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing. There is prostitution in Ephraim. Israel is defiled.
U domu Izrailjevu vidim strahotu; ondje je kurvanje Jefremovo, Izrailj se oskvrni.
11 “Also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I restore the fortunes of my people.
I tebi je, Juda, pripravljena žetva, kad vratim roblje naroda svojega.
