Hosea 6
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1'Come, and let us return unto the LORD; for He hath torn, and He will heal us, He hath smitten, and He will bind us up.
1[In tribulatione sua mane consurgent ad me: Venite, et revertamur ad Dominum,
2After two days will He revive us, on the third day He will raise us up, that we may live in His presence.
2quia ipse cepit, et sanabit nos; percutiet, et curabit nos.
3And let us know, eagerly strive to know the LORD, His going forth is sure as the morning; and He shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter rain that watereth the earth.'
3Vivificabit nos post duos dies; in die tertia suscitabit nos, et vivemus in conspectu ejus. Sciemus, sequemurque ut cognoscamus Dominum: quasi diluculum præparatus est egressus ejus, et veniet quasi imber nobis temporaneus et serotinus terræ.
4O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the dew that early passeth away.
4Quid faciam tibi, Ephraim? quid faciam tibi, Juda? misericordia vestra quasi nubes matutina, et quasi ros mane pertransiens.
5Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets, I have slain them by the words of My mouth; and thy judgment goeth forth as the light.
5Propter hoc dolavi in prophetis; occidi eos in verbis oris mei: et judicia tua quasi lux egredientur.
6For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than burnt-offerings.
6Quia misericordiam volui, et non sacrificium; et scientiam Dei plus quam holocausta.
7But they like men have transgressed the covenant; there have they dealt treacherously against Me.
7Ipsi autem sicut Adam transgressi sunt pactum: ibi prævaricati sunt in me.
8Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, it is covered with footprints of blood.
8Galaad civitas operantium idolum, supplantata sanguine.
9And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so doth the company of priests; they murder in the way toward Shechem; yea, they commit enormity.
9Et quasi fauces virorum latronum, particeps sacerdotum, in via interficientium pergentes de Sichem: quia scelus operati sunt.
10In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing; there harlotry is found in Ephraim, Israel is defiled.
10In domo Israël vidi horrendum: ibi fornicationes Ephraim, contaminatus est Israël.
11Also, O Judah, there is a harvest appointed for thee! When I would turn the captivity of My people,
11Sed et Juda, pone messem tibi, cum convertero captivitatem populi mei.]
