< Hosea 9 >

1 [You people of] Israel, do not shout joyfully [during your festivals] like [people of other] nations do! [I say that] because you have (not been faithful to/abandoned) me, your God. At every place where the people thresh grain you have [presented gifts to your idols like men] pay money to prostitutes.
Не радуј се, Израиљу, веселећи се као народи, што се курваш одступивши од Бога свог, милујеш плату курварску по свим гумнима житним.
2 [But soon] there will not be enough grain [MTY, PRS] and wine [MTY, PRS] for you.
Гумно и каца неће их хранити, и маст ће их преварити.
3 And you people will not remain in the land that I, Yahweh, [gave to your ancestors]. You will be [captured and] taken to [Assyria], [where you will become slaves like your ancestors were] in Egypt; and in Assyria you will be forced to eat food that Yahweh has forbidden you to eat.
Они неће наставати у земљи Господњој; него ће се вратити Јефрем у Мисир, и они ће јести нечистоту у асирској.
4 You Israelis will not [be able to] give wine offerings to him, or bring sacrifices to him. None of your other sacrifices will please him; they will be unacceptable to him, like [SIM] food that is touched by people at funerals, and everyone who eats that food will become unacceptable to him. They will be permitted to eat that food themselves, but they will not [be permitted to] bring it into the temple.
Неће приносити Господу вина, нити ће Му бити угодне жртве њихове, него ће им бити као хлеб оних који туже, ко га год једе оскврниће се, јер им је хлеб за жртве њихове, неће ући у дом Господњи.
5 At that time you will not [RHQ] be able to celebrate the feasts and sacred festivals.
Шта ћете чинити на дан светковине и на дан празника Господњег?
6 And even if you escape and are not killed [by the Assyrians], you will be captured by [the army of] Egypt, and you will [die and] be buried in Memphis, [the capital of Egypt]. Briers will [grow up and] cover your treasures of silver, and thorns will grow in your [ruined] tents/houses.
Јер гле, отићи ће пустошења ради; Мисир ће их прибрати, Мемфис ће их погрепсти; закладе њихове од сребра наследиће коприва, трње ће им бити у шаторима.
7 It is now the time for Yahweh to punish you, to pay you back for all the sins that you have committed. You people will [soon] know that. You have [committed] very many sins, and you very much hate Yahweh. You consider that the prophets are foolish, and you think that those who proclaim messages from him are crazy.
Дођоше дани похођењу, дођоше дани плаћању; познаће Израиљ; пророци су луди, безумни су у којима је дух, за мноштво безакоња твог и велику мржњу.
8 My God appointed [me and the other] prophets to be [like] [MET] watchmen [to warn] you people of Israel, but everywhere that we go, [it is as though] people set traps for us and people are hostile [to us, even] in the temple of our God.
Стражар је Јефремов с Богом мојим, пророк је замка птичарска по свим путевима његовим, мржња је у дому Бога његовог.
9 The sins that the Israeli people have committed are as awful as [what the men of] Gibeah did long ago; [so] God will not forget the wicked things that they have done; he will punish the Israelis for [all] those sins.
Дубоко су се покварили као у време гавајско; опоменуће се безакоња њихова, и походиће грехе њихове.
10 [Yahweh says], “When I first started [to do things to help] Israel, it seemed to me as though [SIM] I had found grapes in the desert. Your ancestors were [delightful], like [SIM] the first figs that grow on fig trees [each year]. But when they came to Peor [Mountain], they worshiped that disgusting idol Baal, and they became as disgusting as the idol that they loved.
Нађох Израиља као грожђе у пустињи; видех оце ваше као прве смокве на дрвету у почетку његовом; они отидоше к Велфегору, и одвојише се за срамотом, и посташе гадни како им беше мило.
11 The things that cause Israel to be great will disappear like [SIM] a bird that flies away; [most of their women will] not become pregnant [DOU] or give birth to children.
Јефремова ће слава одлетети као птица од рођења и од утробе и од зачетка.
12 Even if their children are born and start to grow up, I will cause all of them to die [while they are still young]. Terrible things will happen to them when I abandon them!
Ако ли и отхрани синове своје, ја ћу их учинити да буду без деце, да не остане ниједан; и тешко њима кад одступим од њих.
13 I have seen Israel become beautiful and prosperous like Tyre [city] was [before it was destroyed], but now the people of Israel will [be forced to] take their children to be slaughtered [by their enemies].”
Јефрем, кад га гледах, беше као Тир, посађен на љупком месту; али ће Јефрем извести крвнику синове своје.
14 Yahweh, [I do not know] [RHQ] what I should ask for my people. So I ask that you do this one thing: Cause the women who are pregnant to have miscarriages and unable [to nurse their babies].
Подај им, Господе; шта ћеш им дати? Подај им утробу пометљиву и дојке усахле.
15 [Yahweh says], “Because of all the wicked things that my people did at Gilgal, that is where I started to hate them. [And now], because of [all] the sinful things that they have done, I will expel them from my country. I will not love them any longer; all their leaders rebel [against me].
Сва је злоћа њихова у Галгалу; зато онде мрзим на њих; за злоћу дела њихових изгнаћу их из дома свог; нећу их више љубити: сви су кнезови њихови одметници.
16 Israel is like [MET] a grapevine that is dried up; [like a vine] [MET] whose roots are withered and that produces no fruit. Even if the [women of Israel] give birth to [more] children, I will cause those children, whom they love, to die.
Ударен би Јефрем; корен им посахну, неће родити рода; ако и роде, убићу мили пород утробе њихове.
17 The people of Israel have not obeyed me, their God, so I will reject them. [As a result], they will wander among the [other] nations, [searching for a place to live].”
Одбациће их Бог мој, јер Га не слушају, и скитаће се по народима.
