Oseas 7
Zürcher Bibel 1931
1Offenkundig ist die Schuld Ephraims und die Bosheit Samariens. Denn sie verüben Trug; der Dieb bricht ein ins Haus, die Räuberbande plündert auf der Strasse.
2Und sie sagen sich nicht in ihrem Herzen, dass ich all ihrer Bosheit gedenke; ihre Taten umringen sie jetzt, sie sind vor meinem Angesicht.
3In ihrer Bosheit salben sie einen König und in ihrer Falschheit Fürsten.
4Sie alle sind Ehebrecher. Einem brennenden Backofen gleichen sie, dessen Bäcker aufhört zu schüren, nachdem er den Teig geknetet hat, bis er durchsäuert ist.
5Am Festtage unsres Königs wurden die Fürsten krank von Weinglut.... (1) der Versschluss ist unübersetzbar.
6Ihr Inneres gleicht einem Backofen, ihr Herz brennt in ihnen: die ganze Nacht schläft ihr Zorn, am Morgen brennt er wie lohendes Feuer.
7Sie sind alle erhitzt wie ein Backofen, und sie verzehren ihre Regenten. All ihre Könige sind gefallen. Es ist keiner unter ihnen, der mich anruft. (a) 2Kön 15:10 14 25 30
8Ephraim (verkommt) unter den Völkern, es welkt dahin. Ephraim ist wie ein Kuchen geworden, den man nicht gewendet.
9Fremde haben seine Kraft verzehrt, und es merkt es nicht; seine Haare sind sogar schon grau geworden, und es merkt es nicht.
10Wider Israel zeugt offen sein Hochmut, und doch sind sie nicht umgekehrt zu dem Herrn, ihrem Gott, und trotz alledem haben sie ihn nicht gesucht. (a) Hos 5:5
11Ephraim ist geworden wie eine Taube, eine einfältige, ohne Verstand. Sie haben die Ägypter hergerufen, zu den Assyrern sind sie gegangen. (a) Hos 5:13; 8:9; 2Kön 17:4
12Während sie hingehen, spanne ich mein Netz über sie aus, hole sie herunter wie Vögel des Himmels und züchtige sie wegen ihrer Bosheit.
13Wehe ihnen, dass sie von mir gewichen! Verderben über sie, dass sie von mir abgefallen sind! Und ich sollte sie erlösen, da sie doch Lügen wider mich reden?
14Sie schreien nicht von Herzen zu mir, sondern heulen auf ihren Lagern, machen sich Einschnitte wegen Korn und Wein, sind widerspenstig gegen mich.
15Ich bin's doch, der ihre Arme gestärkt hat; aber sie sinnen Arges wider mich.
16Sie wenden sich dem Baal zu, sind geworden wie ein trügerischer Bogen. Ihre Fürsten sollen fallen durch das Schwert wegen des Grimms ihrer Zunge, die meiner gespottet im Lande Ägypten. (a) Ps 78:57
Reina-Valera 1909
1ESTANDO yo curando á Israel, descubrióse la iniquidad de Ephraim, y las maldades de Samaria; porque obraron engaño: y viene el ladrón, y el salteador despoja de fuera.
2Y no dicen en su corazón que tengo en la memoria toda su maldad: ahora los rodearán sus obras; delante de mí están.
3Con su maldad alegran al rey, y á los príncipes con sus mentiras.
4Todos ellos adúlteros; son como horno encendido por el hornero, el cual cesará de avivar después que esté hecha la masa, hasta que esté leuda.
5El día de nuestro rey los príncipes lo hicieron enfermar con vasos de vino: extendió su mano con los escarnecedores.
6Porque aplicaron su corazón, semejante á un horno, á sus artificios: toda la noche duerme su hornero; á la mañana está encendido como llama de fuego.
7Todos ellos arden como un horno, y devoraron á sus jueces: cayeron todos sus reyes: no hay entre ellos quien á mí clame.
8Ephraim se envolvió con los pueblos; Ephraim fué torta no vuelta.
9Comieron extraños su sustancia, y él no lo supo; y aun vejez se ha esparcido por él, y él no lo entendió.
10Y la soberbia de Israel testificará contra él en su cara: y no se tornaron á Jehová su Dios, ni lo buscaron con todo esto.
11Y fué Ephraim como paloma incauta, sin entendimiento: llamarán á Egipto, acudirán al Asirio.
12Cuando fueren, extenderé sobre ellos mi red, hacerlos he caer como aves del cielo; castigarélos conforme á lo que se ha oído en sus congregaciones.
13¡Ay de ellos! porque se apartaron de mí: destrucción sobre ellos, porque contra mí se rebelaron; yo los redimí, y ellos hablaron contra mí mentiras.
14Y no clamaron á mí con su corazón cuando aullaron sobre sus camas, para el trigo y el mosto se congregaron, rebeláronse contra mí.
15Y yo los ceñí, esforcé sus brazos, y contra mí pensaron mal.
16Tornáronse, mas no al Altísimo: fueron como arco engañoso: cayeron sus príncipes á cuchillo por la soberbia de su lengua: éste será su escarnio en la tierra de Egipto.
King James Version
1When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without.
2And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face.
3They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
4They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.
5In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners.
6For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
7They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
8Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
9Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not.
10And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to the LORD their God, nor seek him for all this.
11Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
12When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard.
13Woe unto them! for they have fled from me: destruction unto them! because they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
14And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for corn and wine, and they rebel against me.
15Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me.
16They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
World English Bible
1When I would heal Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim is uncovered, also the wickedness of Samaria; for they commit falsehood, and the thief enters in, and the gang of robbers ravages outside.
2They don’t consider in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness. Now their own deeds have engulfed them. They are before my face.
3They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
4They are all adulterers. They are burning like an oven that the baker stops stirring, from the kneading of the dough, until it is leavened.
5On the day of our king, the princes made themselves sick with the heat of wine. He joined his hand with mockers.
6For they have prepared their heart like an oven, while they lie in wait. Their anger smolders all night. In the morning it burns as a flaming fire.
7They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges. All their kings have fallen. There is no one among them who calls to me.
8Ephraim mixes himself among the nations. Ephraim is a pancake not turned over.
9Strangers have devoured his strength, and he doesn’t realize it. Indeed, gray hairs are here and there on him, and he doesn’t realize it.
10The pride of Israel testifies to his face; yet they haven’t returned to the LORD their God, nor sought him, for all this.
11“Ephraim is like an easily deceived dove, without understanding. They call to Egypt. They go to Assyria.
12When they go, I will spread my net on them. I will bring them down like the birds of the sky. I will chastise them, as their congregation has heard.
13Woe to them! For they have wandered from me. Destruction to them! For they have trespassed against me. Though I would redeem them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
14They haven’t cried to me with their heart, but they howl on their beds. They assemble themselves for grain and new wine. They turn away from me.
15Though I have taught and strengthened their arms, yet they plot evil against me.
16They return, but not to the Most High. They are like a faulty bow. Their princes will fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue. This will be their derision in the land of Egypt.
