Oseas 5
1 Sacerdotes, oíd esto, y estád atentos, casa de Israel, y casa del rey, escuchád; porque a vosotros es el juicio; porque habéis sido lazo en Maspad, y red extendida sobre Tabor.
'Hear this, O priests, and attend, O house of Israel, And, O house of the king, give ear, For the judgment [is] for you, For, a snare ye have been on Mizpah, And a net spread out on Tabor.
2 Y matando sacrificios han bajado hasta el profundo, y yo la corrección de todos ellos.
And to slaughter sinners have gone deep, And I [am] a fetter to them all.
3 Yo conozco a Efraím, e Israel no me es ignorado; porque ahora has fornicado, o! Efraím, y se ha contaminado Israel.
I have known Ephraim, And Israel hath not been hid from me, For now thou hast gone a-whoring, Ephraim, Defiled is Israel.
4 No pondrán sus pensamientos en volverse a su Dios, porque espíritu de fornicación está en medio de ellos, y no conocen a Jehová.
They give not up their habitual doings, To turn back unto their God, For a spirit of whoredoms [is] in their midst, And Jehovah they have not known.
5 Y la soberbia de Israel le desmentirá en su cara; e Israel y Efraím tropezarán en su pecado, tropezará también con ellos Judá.
And humbled hath been the excellency of Israel to his face, And Israel and Ephraim stumble by their iniquity, Stumbled also hath Judah with them.
6 Con sus ovejas, y con sus vacas andarán buscando a Jehová, y no le hallarán: apartóse de ellos.
With their flock and with their herd, They go to seek Jehovah, and do not find, He hath withdrawn from them.
7 Contra Jehová se rebelaron, porque engendraron hijos extraños: ahora los devorará mes con sus heredades.
Against Jehovah they dealt treacherously, For strange sons they have begotten, Now consume them doth a month [with] their portions.
8 Tocád bocina en Gabaa, trompeta en Rama: sonád atambor en Bet-aven, tras ti, o! Ben-jamín.
Blow ye a cornet in Gibeah, a trumpet in Ramah, Shout, O Beth-Aven, after thee, O Benjamin.
9 Efraím será asolado el día del castigo: en las tribus de Israel hice conocer mi verdad.
Ephraim is for a desolation in a day of reproof, Among the tribes of Israel I have made known a sure thing.
10 Los príncipes de Judá fueron como los que traspasan mojones: derramaré pues sobre ellos, como agua, mi ira.
Princes of Judah have been as those removing a border, On them I do pour out as water My wrath.
11 Calumniado Efraím, quebrantado en juicio, porque quiso andar tras mandamientos.
Oppressed is Ephraim, broken in judgment, When he pleased he went after the command.
12 Y yo seré como polilla a Efraím, y como carcoma a la casa de Judá.
And I [am] as a moth to Ephraim, And as a rotten thing to the house of Judah.
13 Y verá Efraím su enfermedad, y Judá su llaga; e irá Efraím al Asur, y enviará al rey de Jareb: mas él no os podrá sanar, ni os curará la llaga.
And see doth Ephraim his sickness, and Judah his wound, And Ephraim goeth unto Asshur, And sendeth unto a warlike king, And he is not able to give healing to you, Nor doth he remove from you a scar.
14 Porque yo seré como león a Efraím, y como cachorro de león a la casa de Judá: yo, yo arrebataré, y andaré: tomaré, y no habrá quien escape.
For I [am] as a lion to Ephraim, And as a young lion to the house of Judah, I — I tear and go, I bear away, and there is no deliverer.
15 Andaré, y tornaré a mi lugar, hasta que conozcan su pecado, y busquen mi faz: en su angustia madruguen a mí.
I go — I turn back unto My place, Till that they are desolate, and have sought My face. In their distress they do seek Me speedily!'
