Hozejas 12
1 Efraīms grābstās pēc vēja un dzenās pakaļ rīta vētrai, cauru dienu viņš vairo postu, un tie ceļ derību ar Asuru, un eļļa top vesta uz Ēģipti.
Ephraim feedeth on the wind, and followeth the burning heat: all the day long he multiplied lies and desolation: and he hath made a covenant with the Assyrians, and carried oil into Egypt.
2 Tam Kungam jātiesājas ar Jūdu, un Jēkabu Viņš piemeklēs pēc viņa ceļiem, pēc viņa darbiem Viņš tam atmaksās.
Therefore there is a judgment of the Lord with Juda, and a visitation for Jacob: he will render to him according to his ways, and according to his devices.
3 Mātes miesās viņš pamina savu brāli, un savā (vīra) spēkā viņš cīnījās ar Dievu.
In the womb he supplanted his brother: and by his strength he had success with an angel.
4 Viņš stipri cīnījās ar to eņģeli un pārvarēja; viņš raudāja un Viņu lūdza; Bētelē Viņš to atrada, un tur Viņš ar mums runāja.
And he prevailed over the angel, and was strengthened: he wept, and made supplication to him: he found him in Bethel, and there he spoke with us.
5 Un Tas Kungs ir tas Dievs Cebaot, Kungs ir Viņa vārds.
Even the Lord the God of hosts, the Lord is his memorial.
6 Tu tad atgriezies pie sava Dieva, pasargi žēlastību un tiesu un gaidi bez mitēšanās uz savu Dievu.
Therefore turn thou to thy God: keep mercy and judgment, and hope in thy God always.
7 Kanaāns, viņa rokā ir viltīgs svars, viņam mīl varas darbu darīt.
He is like Chanaan, there is a deceitful balance in his hand, he hath loved oppression.
8 Efraīms saka: taču es esmu tapis bagāts, esmu sev dabūjis lielu mantu, pie visas manas peļņas vainas nav, kas būtu grēks.
And Ephraim said: But yet I am become rich, I have found me an idol: all my labours shall not find me the iniquity that I have committed.
9 Bet Es esmu Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, kamēr no Ēģiptes zemes; Es tevi vēl likšu lieveņos dzīvot, kā svētku laikā.
And I that am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, will yet cause thee to dwell in tabernacles, as in the days of the feast.
10 Un Es runāju caur praviešiem, un vairoju parādīšanas, un caur praviešiem Es stāstu līdzības.
And I have spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and I have used similitudes by the ministry of the prophets.
11 Ja Gileādā griežas uz grēku, tad tiešām tie paliks par nieku; Gilgalā tie upurē vēršus; un viņu altāri būs kā akmeņu kopa tīruma vagās.
If Galaad be an idol, then in vain were they in Galgal offering sacrifices with bullocks: for their altars also are as heaps in the furrows of the field.
12 Jēkabs bēga uz Sīrijas klajumu, un Israēls kalpoja par sievu, sievas dēļ viņš bija gans.
Jacob fled into the country of Syria, and Israel served for a wife, and was a keeper for a wife.
13 Un Tas Kungs Israēli izveda no Ēģiptes caur vienu pravieti, un caur vienu pravieti tas tapa ganīts.
But the Lord by a prophet brought Israel out of Egypt: and he was preserved by a prophet.
14 Bet Efraīms Viņu rūgti apkaitināja, tāpēc viņa Kungs viņa asinīm liks uz tā palikt, un tam atmaksās Viņa nievāšanu.
Ephraim hath provoked me to wrath with his bitterness, and his blood shall come upon him, and his Lord will render his reproach unto him.
