Hošea 8

Biblija Hrvatski	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Trublju na usta, poput stražara na domu Jahvinu; jer oni moj savez prestupiše, otpadoše od moga zakona.	1 Set the trumpet to thy mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of the LORD, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law.
2 Meni viču: »Poznajemo te, Bože Izraelov.«	2 Israel shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee.
3 Ali je Izrael odbacio dobro, dušman će ga progoniti.	3 Israel hath cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him.
4 Kraljeve su postavljali bez mene, knezove birali bez znanja moga. Od srebra svog i zlata načiniše sebi kumire da budu uništeni.	4 They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.
5 Odbacih tvoje tele, Samarijo, na njih se gnjev moj rasplamtio. Dokle će ostati nečisti sinovi Izraelovi?	5 Thy calf, O Samaria, hath cast thee off; mine anger is kindled against them: how long will it be ere they attain to innocency?
6 Umjetnik ga je neki načinio, i ono Bog nije. Prometnut će se u komadiće tele samarijsko.	6 For from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
7 Posijali su vjetar, i požet će oluju; žito im neće proklijati, neće brašna dati; ako ga i dade, proždrijet će ga tuđinci.	7 For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it hath no stalk: the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.
8 Progutan je Izrael, evo ga među narodima poput nevrijedne posude;	8 Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.
9 jer otiđoše k Asircu, divljem magarcu što sâm živi! Efrajim obdaruje milosnike.	9 For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath hired lovers.
10 Neka ih samo obdaruje, među narode ću ih sada razasuti: i doskora će uzdrhtati pod teretom kralja knezova.	10 Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.
11 Žrtvenike je umnožio Efrajim, za grijeh su mu oni poslužili.	11 Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin.
12 Da mu i tisuću zakona svojih napišem, oni ih smatraju tuđima.	12 I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing.
13 Nek’ žrtvuju klanice što mi ih prinose, nek’ samo jedu meso! Jahvi se ne mile. Odsad će se spominjati bezakonja njihova i njihove će kazniti grijehe: u Egipat će se oni vratiti.	13 They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat it; but the LORD accepteth them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
14 Izrael je zaboravio tvorca svoga i sebi dvorove sagradio; Juda je namnožio gradove tvrde. Oganj ću pustiti na gradove njegove; vatra će mu dvorove progutati.	14 For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
