Hošea 3

Biblija Hrvatski	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Potom mi Jahve reče: »Idi opet, ljubi ženu koja drugog ljubi i čini preljub, kao što Jahve ljubi djecu Izraelovu dok se oni k drugim bogovima okreću i žude za kolačima od grožđa.«	1 Then said the LORD unto me, Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of the LORD toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love flagons of wine.
2 Ja je tad kupih za petnaest srebrnika, za homer i letek ječma,	2 So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley:
3 i rekoh joj: »Za mnogo dana ostat ćeš mi povučena, nećeš se odavati bludu ni podavati nikojem čovjeku, a ni ja neću k tebi prilaziti.«	3 And I said unto her, Thou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee.
4 Jer mnogo će dana sinovi Izraelovi ostati bez kralja i bez kneza, bez žrtve i bez stupa, bez oplećka i bez kumira.	4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim:
5 Poslije toga, sinovi će se Izraelovi vratiti; tražit će Jahvu, Boga svoga, i Davida, svoga kralja; sa strahom će pristupiti k Jahvi i k njegovim dobrima, na kraju danâ.	5 Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days.
