Hosea 14

DOUAI-RHEIMS	MODERN HEBREW BIBLE
1 Let Samaria perish, because she hath stirred up her God to bitterness: let them perish by the sword, let their little ones be dashed, and let the women with child be ripped up.	1 שובה ישראל עד יהוה אלהיך כי כשלת בעונך
2 Return, O Israel, to the Lord thy God: for thou hast fallen down by thy iniquity.	2 קחו עמכם דברים ושובו אל יהוה אמרו אליו כל תשא עון וקח טוב ונשלמה פרים שפתינו
3 Take with you words, and return to the Lord, and say to him: Take away all iniquity, and receive the good: and we will render the calves of our lips.	3 אשור לא יושיענו על סוס לא נרכב ולא נאמר עוד אלהינו למעשה ידינו אשר בך ירחם יתום
4 Assyria shall not save us, we will not ride upon horses, neither will we say any more: The works of our hands are our gods, for thou wilt have mercy on the fatherless that is in thee.	4 ארפא משובתם אהבם נדבה כי שב אפי ממנו
5 I will heal their breaches, I will love them freely: for my wrath is turned away from them.	5 אהיה כטל לישראל יפרח כשושנה ויך שרשיו כלבנון
6 I will be as the dew, Israel shall spring as the lily, and his root shall shoot forth as that of Libanus.	6 ילכו ינקותיו ויהי כזית הודו וריח לו כלבנון
7 His branches shall spread, and his glory shall be as the olive tree: and his smell as that of Libanus.	7 ישבו ישבי בצלו יחיו דגן ויפרחו כגפן זכרו כיין לבנון
8 They shall be converted that sit under his shadow: they shall live upon wheat, and they shall blossom as a vine: his memorial shall be as the wine of Libanus.	8 אפרים מה לי עוד לעצבים אני עניתי ואשורנו אני כברוש רענן ממני פריך נמצא
9 Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols? I will hear him, and I will make him flourish like a green fir tree: from me is thy fruit found.	9 מי חכם ויבן אלה נבון וידעם כי ישרים דרכי יהוה וצדקים ילכו בם ופשעים יכשלו בם
10 Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know these things? for the ways of the Lord are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall in them.
