1 Return, Israel, to the Lord your God, because your sins have brought you down.
1 CONVIÉRTETE, oh Israel, á Jehová tu Dios: porque por tu pecado has caído.
1 Israel, return to Yahweh your God; for you have fallen because of your sin.
2 Take words like these with you and come back to the Lord, saying to him, “Please take away all our guilt, accept what is good, and we will repay you with praise from our lips.
2 Tomad con vosotros palabras, y convertíos á Jehová, y decidle: Quita toda iniquidad, y acepta el bien, y daremos becerros de nuestros labios.
2 Take words with you, and return to Yahweh. Tell him, “Forgive all our sins, and accept that which is good; so we offer bulls as we vowed of our lips.
3 Assyria can't save us; we will not ride our warhorses; we will never again say, ‘You are our gods’ to the idols we have made. For in you orphans find mercy.”
3 No nos librará Assur; no subiremos sobre caballos, ni nunca más diremos á la obra de nuestras manos: Dioses nuestros: porque en ti el huérfano alcanzará misericordia.
3 Assyria can’t save us. We won’t ride on horses; neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, ‘Our gods!’ for in you the fatherless finds mercy.”
4 I will heal their unfaithfulness; I will love them freely, for I'm not angry with them any longer.
4 Yo medicinaré su rebelión, amarélos de voluntad: porque mi furor se apartó de ellos.

6 They will send out new shoots, their splendor will be like the olive tree, and their scent will be like the cedars of Lebanon.
6 Extenderse han sus ramos, y será su gloria como la de la oliva, y olerá como el Líbano.
6 His branches will spread, and his beauty will be like the olive tree, and his fragrance like Lebanon.
7 Those who live under their shade willll return, they will flourish like grain, they will blossom like the vine, and they will be as famous as the wine of Lebanon.
7 Volverán, y se sentarán bajo de su sombra: serán vivificados [como] trigo, y florecerán como la vid: su olor, como de vino del Líbano.
7 Men will dwell in his shade. They will revive like the grain, and blossom like the vine. Their fragrance will be like the wine of Lebanon.
8 Ephraim, how much more do I have to warn you about idols? I have answered and now I am watching. I am like a tree that is evergreen; your fruit is found in me.
8 Ephraim [dirá]: ¿Qué más tendré ya con los ídolos? Yo lo oiré, y miraré; yo [seré á él] como la haya verde: de mí será hallado tu fruto.
8 Ephraim, what have I to do any more with idols? I answer, and will take care of him. I am like a green cypress tree; from me your fruit is found.”
9 Who is wise to understand these things? Who has discernment in understanding them? The Lord's paths are right—the good follow them, but rebels trip and fall along the way.
9 ¿Quién es sabio para que entienda esto, y prudente para que lo sepa? Porque los caminos de Jehová son derechos, y los justos andarán por ellos: mas los rebeldes en ellos caerán.
9 Who is wise, that he may understand these things? Who is prudent, that he may know them? For the ways of Yahweh are right, and the righteous walk in them, but the rebellious stumble in them.
