Hosea 5

Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward you, because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.

«اِسْمَعُوا هذَا أَيُّهَا الْكَهَنَةُ! وَانْصِتُوا يَا بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ! وَأَصْغُوا يَا بَيْتَ الْمَلِكِ! لأَنَّ عَلَيْكُمُ الْقَضَاءَ، إِذْ صِرْتُمْ فَخًّا فِي مِصْفَاةَ، وَشَبَكَةً مَبْسُوطَةً عَلَى تَابُورَ.

And the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I have been a rebuker of them all.

وَقَدْ تَوَغَّلُوا فِي ذَبَائِحِ الزَّيَغَانِ، فَأَنَا تَأْدِيبٌ لِجَمِيعِهِمْ.

I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, thou committest whoredom, and Israel is defiled.

أَنَا أَعْرِفُ أَفْرَايِمَ. وَإِسْرَائِيلُ لَيْسَ مَخْفِيًّا عَنِّي. إِنَّكَ الآنَ زَنَيْتَ يَا أَفْرَايِمُ. قَدْ تَنَجَّسَ إِسْرَائِيلُ.

They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD.

أَفْعَالُهُمْ لاَ تَدَعُهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ إِلَى إِلهِهِمْ، لأَنَّ رُوحَ الزِّنَىفِي بَاطِنِهِمْ، وَهُمْ لاَ يَعْرِفُونَ الرَّبَّ.

And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall with them.

وَقَدْ أُذِلَّتْ عَظَمَةُ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي وَجْهِهِ، فَيَتَعَثَّرُ إِسْرَائِيلُ وَأَفْرَايِمُ فِي إِثْمِهِمَا، وَيَتَعَثَّرُ يَهُوذَا أَيْضًا مَعَهُمَا.

They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find him; he hath withdrawn himself from them.

يَذْهَبُونَ بِغَنَمِهِمْ وَبَقَرِهِمْ لِيَطْلُبُوا الرَّبَّ وَلاَ يَجِدُونَهُ. قَدْ تَنَحَّى عَنْهُمْ.

They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions.

قَدْ غَدَرُوا بِالرَّبِّ. لأَنَّهُمْ وَلَدُوا أَوْلاَدًا أَجْنَبِيِّينَ، اَلآنَ يَأْكُلُهُمْ شَهْرٌ مَعَ أَنْصِبَتِهِمْ.

Blow ye the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud at Beth–aven, after thee, O Benjamin.

«اِضْرِبُوا بِالْبُوقِ فِي جِبْعَةَ، بِالْقَرْنِ فِي الرَّامَةِ. اصْرُخُوا فِي بَيْتِ آوَنَ. وَرَاءَكَ يَا بَنْيَامِينُ.

Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.

يَصِيرُ أَفْرَايِمُ خَرَابًا فِي يَوْمِ التَّأْدِيبِ. فِي أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَعْلَمْتُ الْيَقِينَ.

The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound: therefore I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.

صَارَتْ رُؤَسَاءُ يَهُوذَا كَنَاقِلِي التُّخُومِ. فَأَسْكُبُ عَلَيْهِمْ سَخَطِي كَالْمَاءِ.

Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment.

أَفْرَايِمُ مَظْلُومٌ مَسْحُوقُ الْقَضَاءِ، لأَنَّهُ ارْتَضَى أَنْ يَمْضِيَ وَرَاءَ الْوَصِيَّةِ.

Therefore will I be unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.

فَأَنَا لأَفْرَايِمَ كَالْعُثِّ، وَلِبَيْتِ يَهُوذَا كَالسُّوسِ.

When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you, nor cure you of your wound.

«وَرَأَى أَفْرَايِمُ مَرَضَهُ وَيَهُوذَا جُرْحَهُ، فَمَضَى أَفْرَايِمُ إِلَى أَشُّورَ، وَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى مَلِكٍ عَدُوٍّ. وَلكِنَّهُ لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَشْفِيَكُمْ وَلاَ أَنْ يُزِيلَ مِنْكُمُ الْجُرْحَ.

For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him.

لأَنِّي لأَفْرَايِمَ كَالأَسَدِ، وَلِبَيْتِ يَهُوذَا كَشِبْلِ الأَسَدِ. فَإِنِّي أَنَا أَفْتَرِسُ وَأَمْضِي وَآخُذُ وَلاَ مُنْقِذٌ.

I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.

أَذْهَبُ وَأَرْجعُ إِلَى مَكَانِي حَتَّى يُجَازَوْا وَيَطْلُبُوا وَجْهِي. فِي ضِيقِهِمْ يُبَكِّرُونَ إِلَيَّ».
