Hosea 9

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 Rejoice not, O Israel, exult not like the nations! For you have been unfaithful to your God, loving a harlot's hire upon every threshing floor.	1 Noli lætari, Israël ; noli exsultare sicut populi : quia fornicatus es a Deo tuo ; dilexisti mercedem super omnes areas tritici.
2 Threshing floor and wine press shall not nourish them, the new wine shall fail them.	2 Area et torcular non pascet eos, et vinum mentietur eis :
3 They shall not dwell in the LORD'S land; Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and in Assyria they shall eat unclean food.	3 non habitabunt in terra Domini. Reversus est Ephraim in Ægyptum, et in Assyriis pollutum comedit.
4 They shall not pour libations of wine to the LORD, or proffer their sacrifices before him. Theirs will be like mourners' bread, that makes unclean all who eat of it; Such food as they have shall be for themselves; it cannot enter the house of the LORD.	4 Non libabunt Domino vinum, et non placebunt ei. Sacrificia eorum quasi panis lugentium ; omnes qui comedent eum, contaminabuntur : quia panis eorum animæ ipsorum : non intrabit in domum Domini.
5 What will you do on the festival day, the day of the LORD'S feast?	5 Quid facietis in die solemni, in die festivitatis Domini ?
6 When they go from the ruins, Egypt shall gather them in, Memphis shall bury them. Weeds shall overgrow their silver treasures, and thorns invade their tents.	6 Ecce enim profecti sunt a vastitate : Ægyptus congregabit eos ; Memphis sepeliet eos : desiderabile argentum eorum urtica hæreditabit, lappa in tabernaculis eorum.
7 They have come, the days of punishment! they have come, the days of recompense! Let Israel know it! "The prophet is a fool, the man of the spirit is mad!" Because your iniquity is great, great, too, is your hostility.	7 Venerunt dies visitationis, venerunt dies retributionis. Scitote, Israël, stultum prophetam, insanum virum spiritualem, propter multitudinem iniquitatis tuæ, et multitudinem amentiæ.
8 A prophet is Ephraim's watchman with God, yet a fowler's snare is on all his ways, hostility in the house of his God.	8 Speculator Ephraim cum Deo meo, propheta laqueus ruinæ factus est super omnes vias ejus ; insania in domo Dei ejus.
9 They have sunk to the depths of corruption, as in the days of Gibeah; He shall remember their iniquity and punish their sins.	9 Profunde peccaverunt, sicut in diebus Gabaa. Recordabitur iniquitatis eorum, et visitabit peccata eorum.
10 Like grapes in the desert, I found Israel; Like the first fruits of the fig tree in its prime, I considered your fathers. When they came to Baal-peor and consecrated themselves to the Shame, they became as abhorrent as the thing they loved.	10 Quasi uvas in deserto inveni Israël, quasi prima poma ficulneæ in cacumine ejus vidi patres eorum : ipsi autem intraverunt ad Beelphegor, et abalienati sunt in confusionem, et facti sunt abominabiles sicut ea quæ dilexerunt.
11 The glory of Ephraim flies away like a bird: no birth, no carrying in the womb, no conception. Were they to bear children, I would slay the darlings of their womb.	11 Ephraim quasi avis avolavit ; gloria eorum a partu, et ab utero, et a conceptu.
12 Even though they bring up their children, I will make them childless, till not one is left. Woe to them when I turn away from them!	12 Quod etsi enutrierint filios suos, absque liberis eos faciam in hominibus ; sed et væ eis cum recessero ab eis !
13 Ephraim, as I saw, was like Tyre, planted in a beauteous spot; But Ephraim shall bring out his children to the slayer.	13 Ephraim, ut vidi, Tyrus erat fundata in pulchritudine ; et Ephraim educet ad interfectorem filios suos.
14 Give them, O LORD! give them what? Give them an unfruitful womb, and dry breasts!	14 Da eis, Domine. Quid dabis eis ? da eis vulvam sine liberis, et ubera arentia.
15 All their wickedness is in Gilgal; yes, there they incurred my hatred. Because of their wicked deeds I will drive them out of my house. I will love them no longer; all their princes are rebels.	15 Omnes nequitiæ eorum in Galgal, quia ibi exosos habui eos. Propter malitiam adinventionum eorum, de domo mea ejiciam eos ; non addam ut diligam eos : omnes principes eorum recedentes.
16 Ephraim is stricken, their root is dried up; they shall bear no fruit.	16 Percussus est Ephraim ; radix eorum exsiccata est : fructum nequaquam facient, quod etsi genuerint, interficiam amantissima uteri eorum.
17 My God will disown them because they have not listened to him; they shall be wanderers among the nations.	17 Abjiciet eos Deus meus, quia non audierunt eum, et erunt vagi in nationibus.
