Hošea 3

Biblija Hrvatski	NEW AMERICAN 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 The number of the Israelites shall be like the sand of the sea, which can be neither measured nor counted. Whereas they were called, "Lo-ammi," They shall be called, "Children of the living God."
2 Ja je tad kupih za petnaest srebrnika, za homer i letek ječma,	2 Then the people of Judah and of Israel shall be gathered together; They shall appoint for themselves one head and come up from other lands, for great shall be the day of Jezreel.
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 Say to your brothers, "Ammi," and to your sisters, "Ruhama."
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 people of Israel shall remain many days without king or prince, Without sacrifice or sacred pillar, without ephod or household idols.
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 Then the people of Israel shall turn back and seek the LORD, their God, and David, their king; They shall come trembling to the LORD and to his bounty, in the last days.
