Hosea 13 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Ephraim's Idolatry

Hos 13:1When Ephraim speaketh tremblingly, He hath been lifted up in Israel, When he becometh guilty in Baal he dieth.

Hos 13:2And now do they add to sin, And make to them a molten image of their silver, By their own understanding -- idols, A work of artizans -- all of it, Of them they say, who are sacrificers among men, 'The calves let them kiss.'

Hos 13:3

Hos 13:3Therefore they are as a cloud of the morning, And as dew, rising early, going away, As chaff tossed about out of a floor, And as smoke out of a window.

Hos 13:4

Hos 13:4And I am Jehovah thy God from the land of Egypt, And a God besides Me thou dost not know, And a Saviour -- there is none save Me.

Hos 13:5

Hos 13:5I -- I have known thee in a wilderness, In a land of droughts.

Hos 13:6

Hos 13:6According to their feedings they are satiated, They have been satiated, And their heart is lifted up, Therefore they have forgotten Me,

Hos 13:7

Hos 13:7And I am to them as a lion, As a leopard by the way I look out.

Hos 13:8

Hos 13:8I do meet them as a bereaved bear, And I rend the enclosure of their heart.

Hos 13:9

Hos 13:9And I consume them there as a lioness, A beast of the field doth rend them.

Hos 13:10

Hos 13:10Thou hast destroyed thyself, O Israel, But in Me is thy help, Where is thy king now -- And he doth save thee in all thy cities? And thy judges of whom thou didst say, 'Give to me a king and heads?'

Hos 13:11

Hos 13:11I give to thee a king in Mine anger, And I take away in My wrath.

Hos 13:12

Hos 13:12Bound up is the iniquity of Ephraim, Hidden is his sin,

Hos 13:13

Hos 13:13Pangs of a travailing woman come to him, He is a son not wise, For he remaineth not the time for the breaking forth of sons.

Hos 13:14

Hos 13:14From the hand of Sheol I do ransom them, From death I redeem them, Where is thy plague, O death? Where thy destruction, O Sheol? Repentance is hid from Mine eyes.

Hos 13:15

Hos 13:15Though he among brethren produceth fruit, Come in doth an east wind, a wind of Jehovah, From a wilderness it is coming up, And it drieth up his fountain, And become dry doth his spring, It -- it spoileth a treasure -- every desirable vessel.

Hos 13:16

Hos 13:16Become desolate doth Samaria, Because she hath rebelled against her God, By sword they do fall, Their sucklings are dashed in pieces, And its pregnant ones are ripped up!
