Osee 11

VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Sicut mane transiit, pertransiit rex Israël. Quia puer Israël, et dilexi eum ; et ex Ægypto vocavi filium meum.	1 As the morning passeth, so hath the king of Israel Israel was a child, and I loved him: and I called my son out of Egypt.
2 Vocaverunt eos, sic abierunt a facie eorum ; Baalim immolabant, et simulacris sacrificabant.	2 As they called them, they went away from before their face: they offered victims to Baalim, and sacrificed to idols.
3 Et ego quasi nutritius Ephraim : portabam eos in brachiis meis, et nescierunt quod curarem eos.	3 And I was like a foster father to Ephraim, I carried them in my arms: and they knew not that I healed them.
4 In funiculis Adam traham eos, in vinculis caritatis ; et ero eis quasi exaltans jugum super maxillas eorum, et declinavi ad eum ut vesceretur.	4 I will draw them with the cords of Adam, with the bands of love : and I will be to them as one that taketh off the yoke on their jaws: and I put his meat to him that he might eat.
5 Non revertetur in terram Ægypti, et Assur ipse rex ejus, quoniam noluerunt converti.	5 He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king: because they would not be converted.
6 Cœpit gladius in civitatibus ejus, et consumet electos ejus, et comedet capita eorum.	6 The sword hath begun in his cities, and it shall consume his chosen men, and sha.ll devour their heads.
7 Et populus meus pendebit ad reditum meum ; jugum autem imponetur eis simul, quod non auferetur.	7 And my people shall long for my return: but a yoke shall be put upon them together, which shall not be taken off.
8 Quomodo dabo te, Ephraim ? protegam te, Israël ? Quomodo dabo te sicut Adama, ponam te ut Seboim ? Conversum est in me cor meum, pariter conturbata est pœnitudo mea.	8 How shall I deal with thee, O Ephraim, shall I protect thee, O Israel? how shall I make thee as Adama, shall I set thee as Seboim? my heart is turned within me, my repentance is stirred up.
9 Non faciam furorem iræ meæ ; non convertar ut disperdam Ephraim, quoniam Deus ego, et non homo ; in medio tui sanctus, et non ingrediar civitatem.	9 I will not execute the fierceness of my wrath: I will not return to destroy Ephraim: because I am God, and not man: the holy one in the midst of thee, and I will not enter into the city.
10 Post Dominum ambulabunt ; quasi leo rugiet, quia ipse rugiet, et formidabunt filii maris.	10 They shall walk after the Lord, he shall roar as a lion: because he shall roar, and the children of the sea shall fear.
11 Et avolabunt quasi avis ex Ægypto, et quasi columba de terra Assyriorum : et collocabo eos in domibus suis, dicit Dominus.	11 And they shall fly away like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of the Assyrians: and I will place them in their own houses, saith the Lord.
12 Circumdedit me in negatione Ephraim, et in dolo domus Israël ; Judas autem testis descendit cum Deo, et cum sanctis fidelis.	12 Ephraim hath compassed me about with denials, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Juda went down as a witness with God, and is faithful with the saints.
