Hosea 14

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	GREEK BIBLE
1 Let Samaria perish, because she has urged her God towards bitterness. Let them perish by the sword, let their little ones be thrown down, and let their pregnant women be cut in two.	1 Ισραηλ, επιστρεψον προς Κυριον τον Θεον σου, διοτι επεσας δια της ανομιας σου.
2 Israel, convert to the Lord your God. For you have been ruined by your own iniquity.	2 Λαβετε μεθ' εαυτων λογους και επιστρεψατε προς τον Κυριον? ειπατε προς αυτον, Αφαιρεσον πασαν ανομιαν ημων και δεχθητι ημας ευμενως, και θελομεν αποδωσει τον καρπον των χειλεων ημων?
3 Take these words with you and return to the Lord. And say to him, “Remove all iniquity and accept the good. And we will repay the calves of our lips.	3 ο Ασσουρ δεν θελει μας σωσει? δεν θελομεν αναβη εφ' ιππους? και δεν θελομεν ειπει πλεον προς το εργον των χειρων ημων, Εισθε θεοι ημων? διοτι εν σοι θελει ελεηθη ο ορφανος.
4 Assur will not save us; we will not ride on horses. Neither will we say any more, ‘The works of our hands are our gods,’ for those that are in you will have mercy on the orphan.”	4 Θελω ιατρευσει την αποστασιαν αυτων, θελω αγαπησει αυτους εγκαρδιως? διοτι ο θυμος μου απεστραφη απ' αυτου.
5 I will heal their contrition; I will love them spontaneously. For my wrath has been turned away from them.	5 Θελω εισθαι ως δροσος εις τον Ισραηλ? ως κρινον θελει ανθησει και θελει εκτεινει τας ριζας αυτου ως δενδρον του Λιβανου.
6 I will be like the dew; Israel will spring forth like the lily, and his root will spread out like that of the cedars of Lebanon.	6 Οι κλαδοι αυτου θελουσιν εξαπλωθη και η δοξα αυτου θελει εισθαι ως ελαιας και η οσμη αυτου ως του Λιβανου.
7 His branches will advance, and his glory will be like the olive tree, and his fragrance will be like that of the cedars of Lebanon.	7 Θελουσιν επιστρεψει και καθησει υπο την σκιαν αυτου? θελουσιν αναζησει ως σιτος και ανθησει ως αμπελος? η μνημη αυτου θελει εισθαι ως οινος Λιβανου.
8 They will be converted, sitting in his shadow. They will live on wheat, and they will grow like a vine. His memorial will be like the wine of the cedars of Lebanon.	8 Ο Εφραιμ θελει ειπει, Τι εχω να καμω πλεον μετα των ειδωλων; Εγω ηκουσα και θελω παραφυλαξει αυτον? εγω ειμαι εις αυτον ως ελατη ευθαλης? απ' εμου ο καρπος σου θελει προελθει.
9 Ephraim will say, “What are idols to me any more?” I will listen to him, and I will set him straight like a healthy spruce tree. Your fruit has been found by me.	9 Τις ειναι σοφος και θελει εννοησει ταυτα, συνετος και θελει γνωρισει αυτα; διοτι ευθειαι ειναι αι οδοι του Κυριου, και οι δικαιοι θελουσι περιπατει εν αυταις? οι δε παραβαται θελουσι πεσει εν αυταις.
10 Who is wise and will understand this? Who has understanding and will know these things? For the ways of the Lord are straight, and the just will walk in them, but truly, the traitors will fall in them.
