Hosea 14 Clementine Vulgate
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 [Pereat Samaria, quoniam ad amaritudinem concitavit Deum suum ! in gladio pereant, parvuli eorum elidantur, et fœtæ ejus discindantur !]
1 Israel, return to Yahweh your God; for you have fallen because of your sin.
2 [Convertere, Israël, ad Dominum Deum tuum, quoniam corruisti in iniquitate tua.
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 Tollite vobiscum verba, et convertimini ad Dominum; et dicite ei: Omnem aufer iniquitatem, accipe bonum, et reddemus vitulos labiorum nostrorum.
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 Assur non salvabit nos: super equum non ascendemus, nec dicemus ultra, Dii nostri opera manuum nostrarum: quia ejus, qui in te est, misereberis pupilli.
4 “I will heal their waywardness. I will love them freely; for my anger is turned away from them.
5 Sanabo contritiones eorum; diligam eos spontanee: quia aversus est furor meus ab eis.
5 I will be like the dew to Israel. He will blossom like the lily, and send down his roots like Lebanon.
6 Ero quasi ros; Israël germinabit sicut lilium, et erumpet radix ejus ut Libani.
6 His branches will spread, and his beauty will be like the olive tree, and his fragrance like Lebanon.
7 Ibunt rami ejus, et erit quasi oliva gloria ejus, et odor ejus ut Libani.
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 Convertentur sedentes in umbra ejus; vivent tritico, et germinabunt quasi vinea; memoriale ejus sicut vinum Libani.
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 Ephraim, quid mihi ultra idola? Ego exaudiam, et dirigam eum ego ut abietem virentem; ex me fructus tuus inventus est.
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.
10 Quis sapiens, et intelliget ista? intelligens, et sciet hæc? quia rectæ viæ Domini, et justi ambulabunt in eis; prævaricatores vero corruent in eis.]
