Osee 11

VULGATA	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Sicut mane transiit, pertransiit rex Israël. Quia puer Israël, et dilexi eum ; et ex Ægypto vocavi filium meum.	1 When Israel was a child I loved him, and I cal ed my son out of Egypt.
2 Vocaverunt eos, sic abierunt a facie eorum ; Baalim immolabant, et simulacris sacrificabant.	2 But the more I cal ed, the further they went away from me; they offered sacrifice to Baal and burntincense to idols.
3 Et ego quasi nutritius Ephraim : portabam eos in brachiis meis, et nescierunt quod curarem eos.	3 I myself taught Ephraim to walk, I myself took them by the arm, but they did not know that I was theone caring for 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 that I was leading them with human ties, with leading-strings of love, that, with them, I was likesomeone lifting an infant to his cheek, and that I bent down to feed him.
5 Non revertetur in terram Ægypti, et Assur ipse rex ejus, quoniam noluerunt converti.	5 He wil not have to go back to Egypt, Assyria wil be his king instead! Since he has refused to comeback to me,
6 Cœpit gladius in civitatibus ejus, et consumet electos ejus, et comedet capita eorum.	6 the sword wil rage through his cities, destroying the bars of his gates, devouring them because oftheir plots.
7 Et populus meus pendebit ad reditum meum ; jugum autem imponetur eis simul, quod non auferetur.	7 My people are bent on disregarding me; if they are summoned to come up, not one of them makes amove.
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 Ephraim, how could I part with you? Israel, how could I give you up? How could I make you likeAdmah or treat you like Zeboi m? My heart within me is overwhelmed, fever grips my inmost being.
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 wil not give rein to my fierce anger, I wil not destroy Ephraim again, for I am God, not man, the HolyOne in your midst, and I shall not come to you in anger.
10 Post Dominum ambulabunt ; quasi leo rugiet, quia ipse rugiet, et formidabunt filii maris.	10 They wil fol ow Yahweh; he wil roar like a lion, and when he roars, his children will come flutteringfrom the west,
11 Et avolabunt quasi avis ex Ægypto, et quasi columba de terra Assyriorum : et collocabo eos in domibus suis, dicit Dominus.	11 fluttering like sparrows from Egypt, like pigeons from Assyria, and I shal settle them in their homes-declares Yahweh.
12 Circumdedit me in negatione Ephraim, et in dolo domus Israël ; Judas autem testis descendit cum Deo, et cum sanctis fidelis.
