Hošea 6
Biblija: suvremeni hrvatski prijevod
Narod očekuje Božji blagoslov
6 Ljudi kažu: »Vratimo se opet BOGU!
Rastrgao nas je, ali će nas iscijeliti.
Ranio nas je, ali će nam rane poviti.
2 Ozdravit ćemo u samo dva dana.
Na treći dan, on će nas uskrsnuti
pa ćemo uz njega živjeti.
3 Upoznajmo BOGA!
Potrudimo se upoznati ga.
Kao što je sigurno da dolazi zora,
tako će nas on pohoditi kao kiša
i natopiti kao proljetni pljusak.«
Bog odgovara svom narodu
4 »Što ću s tobom, Efrajime?
Što da radim s vama, Judejci?
Vaša vjernost je kao jutarnja magla,
kao rosa što već u zoru nestane.
5 Zato sam vam slao svoje proroke,
da vas sijeku i ubijaju mojim riječima.
Vaša je kazna pravedna,
dolazi kao jutarnja svjetlost.[a]
6 Ja želim vašu vjernu ljubav,
a ne vaše žrtve.
Želim da poznajete Boga,
a ne da prinosite paljenice.
7 U Adamu[b] su savez prekršili,
potpuno su me iznevjerili.
8 Gilead je grad zločinaca,
koji iza sebe ostavljaju tragove krvi.
9 Kao što su razbojnici skupa u zasjedi,
tako se i svećenici drže zajedno.
Ubijaju ljude na putu za Šekem,
postupaju kao pravi lupeži.
10 Vidio sam grozne stvari u narodu,
prostituciju Efrajima, nečistoću Izraela.
11 A tebi također, Judo, vrijeme je da požanješ osudu.
Želim vratiti blagostanje svom narodu.«
Hosea 6
King James Version
6 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.
2 After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.
3 Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.
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 early dew it goeth away.
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.
6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
7 But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.
8 Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, and is polluted with blood.
9 And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.
10 I have seen an horrible thing in the house of Israel: there is the whoredom of Ephraim, Israel is defiled.
11 Also, O Judah, he hath set an harvest for thee, when I returned the captivity of my people.
Hosea 6
English Standard Version
Israel and Judah Are Unrepentant
6 “Come, let us (A)return to the Lord;
for (B)he has torn us, that he may heal us;
he has struck us down, and (C)he will bind us up.
2 After two days (D)he will revive us;
on the third day he will raise us up,
that we may live before him.
3 (E)Let us know; (F)let us press on to know the Lord;
(G)his going out is sure as the dawn;
he will come to us (H)as the showers,
(I)as the spring rains that water the earth.”
4 What shall I do with you, (J)O (K)Ephraim?
What shall I do with you, O (L)Judah?
Your love is (M)like a morning cloud,
(N)like the dew that goes early away.
5 Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets;
I have slain them (O)by the words of my mouth,
and my judgment goes forth as the light.
6 For (P)I desire steadfast love[a] and not sacrifice,
(Q)the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
7 But (R)like Adam they (S)transgressed the covenant;
(T)there they dealt faithlessly with me.
8 (U)Gilead is a city of evildoers,
(V)tracked with blood.
9 As robbers (W)lie in wait for a man,
so the priests band together;
they murder on the way to (X)Shechem;
they commit villainy.
10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing;
(Y)Ephraim's whoredom is there; (Z)Israel is defiled.
When (AC)I restore the fortunes of my people,
