Hosea 5

KING JAMES BIBLE	BIBLIA
1 Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward you, because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.	1 Escuchad esto, sacerdotes, estad atentos, casa de Israel, casa real, prestad oído, porque el juicio es cosa vuestra; pero vosotros habéis sido un lazo en Mispá, y una red tendida en el Tabor.
2 And the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I have been a rebuker of them all.	2 Han ahondado la fosa de Sittim, mas yo seré castigo para todos ellos.
3 I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, thou committest whoredom, and Israel is defiled.	3 Yo conozco a Efraím, e Israel no se me oculta. Sí, tú te has prostituido, Efraím, e Israel se ha contaminado,
4 They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD.	4 No les permiten sus obras volver a su Dios, pues un espíritu de prostitución hay dentro de ellos, y no conocen a Yahveh.
5 And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall with them.	5 El orgullo de Israel testifica contra él; Israel y Efraím tropiezan por sus culpas, y también Judá tropieza con ellos.
6 They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find him; he hath withdrawn himself from them.	6 Con su ganado menor y mayor irán en busca de Yahveh, pero no lo encontrarán: ¡se ha retirado de ellos!
7 They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions.	7 Han sido infieles a Yahveh, han engrendado hijos bastardos; pues ahora los va a devorar el novilunio juntamente con sus campos.
8 Blow ye the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud at Beth-aven, after thee, O Benjamin.	8 Tocad el cuerno en Guibeá, la trompeta en Ramá, dad la alarma en Bet Aven, ¡detrás de ti, Benjamín!
9 Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.	9 Efraím será una desolación el día del castigo; en las tribus de Israel hago saber cosa segura.
10 The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound: therefore I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.	10 Los príncipes de Judá son como los que desplazan los linderos, sobre ellos voy a derramar como agua mi furor.
11 Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment.	11 Está oprimido Efraím, quebrantado el juicio, porque se complace en ir tras la Vanidad.
12 Therefore will I be unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.	12 Pues yo he de ser como polilla para Efraím, como carcoma para la casa de Judá.
13 When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you, nor cure you of your wound.	13 Efraím ha visto su dolencia y Judá su llaga. Efraím entonces ha sido a Asiria, y Judá ha mandado mensaje al gran rey; pero éste no podrá sanaros ni curar vuestra llaga.
14 For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him.	14 Porque yo soy como un león para Efraím, como un leoncillo para la casa de Judá. Yo, yo mismo desgarraré y me iré, arrebataré y no habrá quien salve.
15 I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.	15 Voy a volverme a mi lugar, hasta que hayan expiado y busquen mi rostro. En su angustia me buscarán.
