Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1As 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.
1[Sicut mane transiit, pertransiit rex Israël. Quia puer Israël, et dilexi eum; et ex Ægypto vocavi filium meum.
2As they called them, they went away from before their face: they offered victims to Baalim, and sacrificed to idols.
2Vocaverunt eos, sic abierunt a facie eorum; Baalim immolabant, et simulacris sacrificabant.
3And I was like a foster father to Ephraim, I carried them in my arms: and they knew not that I healed them.
3Et ego quasi nutritius Ephraim: portabam eos in brachiis meis, et nescierunt quod curarem eos.
4I 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.
4In funiculis Adam traham eos, in vinculis caritatis; et ero eis quasi exaltans jugum super maxillas eorum, et declinavi ad eum ut vesceretur.
5He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king: because they would not be converted.
5Non revertetur in terram Ægypti, et Assur ipse rex ejus, quoniam noluerunt converti.
6The sword hath begun in his cities, and it shall consume his chosen men, and shall devour their heads.
6Cœpit gladius in civitatibus ejus, et consumet electos ejus, et comedet capita eorum.
7And my people shall long for my return: but a yoke shall be put upon them together, which shall not be taken off.
7Et populus meus pendebit ad reditum meum; jugum autem imponetur eis simul, quod non auferetur.
8How 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.
8Quomodo 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.
9I 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.
9Non faciam furorem iræ meæ; non convertar ut disperdam Ephraim, quoniam Deus ego, et non homo; in medio tui sanctus, et non ingrediar civitatem.
10They shall walk after the Lord, he shall roar as a lion: because he shall roar, and the children of the sea shall fear.
10Post Dominum ambulabunt; quasi leo rugiet, quia ipse rugiet, et formidabunt filii maris.
11And 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.
11Et avolabunt quasi avis ex Ægypto, et quasi columba de terra Assyriorum: et collocabo eos in domibus suis, dicit Dominus.]
12Ephraim 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.
12[Circumdedit me in negatione Ephraim, et in dolo domus Israël; Judas autem testis descendit cum Deo, et cum sanctis fidelis.]
