Osee 14

VULGATA	Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
1 Pereat Samaria, quoniam ad amaritudinem concitavit Deum suum ! in gladio pereant, parvuli eorum elidantur, et fœtæ ejus discindantur !	1 Return, O Israel, to the LORD your God, for you have stumbled because of your iniquity.
2 Convertere, Israël, ad Dominum Deum tuum, quoniam corruisti in iniquitate tua.	2 Take with you words and return to the LORD; say to him, "Take away all iniquity; accept that which is good and we will render the fruit 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 shall not save us, we will not ride upon horses; and we will say no more, 'Our God,' to the work of our hands. In thee the orphan 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 faithlessness; I will love them freely, for my anger has turned from them.
5 Sanabo contritiones eorum ; diligam eos spontanee : quia aversus est furor meus ab eis.	5 I will be as the dew to Israel; he shall blossom as the lily, he shall strike root as the poplar;
6 Ero quasi ros ; Israël germinabit sicut lilium, et erumpet radix ejus ut Libani.	6 his shoots shall spread out; his beauty shall be like the olive, and his fragrance like Lebanon.
7 Ibunt rami ejus, et erit quasi oliva gloria ejus, et odor ejus ut Libani.	7 They shall return and dwell beneath my shadow, they shall flourish as a garden; they shall blossom as the vine, their fragrance shall be like the wine of Lebanon.
8 Convertentur sedentes in umbra ejus ; vivent tritico, et germinabunt quasi vinea ; memoriale ejus sicut vinum Libani.	8 O Ephraim, what have I to do with idols? It is I who answer and look after you. I am like an evergreen cypress, from me comes your fruit.
9 Ephraim, quid mihi ultra idola ? Ego exaudiam, et dirigam eum ego ut abietem virentem ; ex me fructus tuus inventus est.	9 Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; whoever is discerning, let him know them; for the ways of the LORD are right, and the upright walk in them, but transgressors 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.
