< 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, and we shall live before him.
Povratiæe nam život do dva dana, treæi dan podignuæe nas, i živjeæemo pred njim.
3 And let us know, let us follow on 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 goeth early 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 judgments are [as] the light that goeth forth.
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 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 stained with blood.
Galad je grad onijeh koji èine bezakonje, po njemu su krvavi tragovi.
9 And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way toward Shechem; yea, they have committed lewdness.
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 an horrible thing: there whoredom 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 an harvest appointed for thee, when I bring again the captivity of my people.
I tebi je, Juda, pripravljena žetva, kad vratim roblje naroda svojega.
