Hosea 6
1 'Come, and let us return unto the LORD; for He hath torn, and He will heal us, He hath smitten, and He will bind us up.
Hodite da se vratimo ka Gospodu; jer on razdrije, i iscijeliæe nas, rani, i zaviæe nas.
2 After two days will He revive us, on the third day He will raise us up, that we may live in His presence.
Povratiæe nam život do dva dana, treæi dan podignuæe nas, i živjeæemo pred njim.
3 And let us know, eagerly strive to know the LORD, His going forth is sure as the morning; and He shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter rain that watereth 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 O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the dew that early passeth away.
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 have I hewed them by the prophets, I have slain them by the words of My mouth; and thy judgment goeth forth as the light.
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 rather than burnt-offerings.
Jer je meni milost mila a ne žrtva, i poznavanje Boga veæma nego žrtva paljenica.
7 But they like men have transgressed the covenant; there have they dealt treacherously against Me.
Ali oni prestupiše zavjet kao Adam; tu me iznevjeriše.
8 Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, it is covered with footprints of blood.
Galad je grad onijeh koji èine bezakonje, po njemu su krvavi tragovi.
9 And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so doth the company of priests; they murder in the way toward Shechem; yea, they commit enormity.
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 harlotry is found in Ephraim, Israel is defiled.
U domu Izrailjevu vidim strahotu; ondje je kurvanje Jefremovo, Izrailj se oskvrni.
11 Also, O Judah, there is a harvest appointed for thee! When I would turn the captivity of My people,
I tebi je, Juda, pripravljena žetva, kad vratim roblje naroda svojega.
