9 — Osea

1Rejoice not, O Israel: rejoice not as the nations do: for thou hast committed fornication against thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor.Non far tanta festa, o Israele, non tripudiare come fanno le genti perocché tu hai ripudiato il tuo Dio hai amato per tua mercede le aie (piene) di grano.BE not glad Israel, reioyce not as the peoples: because thon hast fornicated from thy God, thou hast loued reward aboue al the flores of wheate.Noli lætari, Israël; / noli exsultare sicut populi: / quia fornicatus es a Deo tuo; / dilexisti mercedem super omnes areas tritici. 2The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the wine shall deceive them.Né l'aia, né lo strettoio daran loro il sostentamento, e la vigna deluderà la loro espettazione.The flore and the winepresse shal not feede them, and the wine shal lie to them.Area et torcular non pascet eos, / et vinum mentietur eis: 3They shall not dwell in the Lord’s land: Ephraim is returned to Egypt, and hath eaten unclean things among the Assyrians.Non abiteranno nella terra del Signore. Ephraim è tornato in Egitto, e mangerà tra gli Assiri vivande impure.They shal not dwel in the land of our Lord: Ephraim is returned into Aegypt, and among the Assyrians he hath eaten the thing polluted.non habitabunt in terra Domini. / Reversus est Ephraim in Ægyptum, / et in Assyriis pollutum comedit. 4They shall not offer wine to the Lord, neither shall they please him: their sacrifices shall be like the bread of mourners: all that shall eat it shall be defiled: for their bread is life for their soul, it shall not enter into the house of the Lord.Non faranno le libagioni del vino al Signore; e le loro obblazioni non saranno gradite a lui: i lor sagrifizj saran come il pane de' funerali, chiunque ne mangerà, si renderà immondo: il loro pane sia per loro: non entrerà nel tempio del Signore.They shal not offer wine to our Lord, and they shal not please him: their sacrfices as the bread of mourners: al that shal eate it, shal be contaminated: because their bread for their soule, shal not enter into the house of our Lord.Non libabunt Domino vinum, / et non placebunt ei. / Sacrificia eorum quasi panis lugentium; / omnes qui comedent eum, contaminabuntur: / quia panis eorum animæ ipsorum: / non intrabit in domum Domini. 5What will you do in the solemn day, in the day of the feast of the Lord?Che farete voi nel dì solenne, nel dì della festa del Signore?what wil you doe in the solemne day, in the day of the festiuitie of our Lord?Quid facietis in die solemni, / in die festivitatis Domini ?

6For behold they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them together, Memphis shall bury them: nettles shall inherit their beloved silver, the bur shall be in their tabernacles.Imperocché eccoli che fuggono dal devastato paese. L'Egitto li raccoglierà, Memphi darà loro la sepoltura. L'amato argento loro rimarrà sotto le ortiche, nelle loro case cresceranno le lappole.For behold they are gone forth from destruction: Aegypt shal gather them together, Memphis shal burie them: their siluer to be desyred the nettle shal inherite, the burre in their tabernacles.Ecce enim profecti sunt a vastitate: / Ægyptus congregabit eos; / Memphis sepeliet eos: / desiderabile argentum eorum urtica hæreditabit, / lappa in tabernaculis eorum. 7The days of visitation are come, the days of repaying are come: know ye, O Israel, that the prophet was foolish, the spiritual man was mad, for the multitude of thy iniquity, and the multitude of thy madness.I giorni di visita son venuti, son venuti i giorni di vendetta. Sappi, o Israele, che il (tuo) profeta è uno stolto, un mentecatto è l'uomo ispirato, per ragione delle molte tue iniquità, e della tua somma stoltezza.The dayes of visitation are come, the dayes are come of retributions: know ô Israel the foolish prophete, the mad spiritual man, for the multitude of thine iniquitie, the multitude also madnes.Venerunt dies visitationis, / venerunt dies retributionis. / Scitote, Israël, / stultum prophetam, / insanum virum spiritualem, / propter multitudinem iniquitatis tuæ, / et multitudinem amentiæ. 8The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: the prophet is become a snare of ruin upon all his ways, madness is in the house of his God.La sentinella (che dovea star) col mio Dio in Ephraim, il profeta è diventato lacciuolo teso in tutte le sue strade per far cadere; stoltezza nella casa del suo Dio.The watchman of Ephraim with my God: the prophete is made a snare of ruine vpon al his wayes, madnes in the house of his God.Speculator Ephraim cum Deo meo, / propheta laqueus ruinæ factus est super omnes vias ejus; / insania in domo Dei ejus. 9They have sinned deeply, as in the days of Gabaa: he will remember their iniquity, and will visit their sin.Hanno peccato profondamente come ne' suoi dì i Gabaoniti. Il Signore si ricorderà della loro perversità, e visiterà i loro peccati.They haue sinned deeply, as in the dayes of Gabaa: he wil remember their iniquitie, and wil visite their sinne.Profunde peccaverunt, sicut in diebus Gabaa. / Recordabitur iniquitatis eorum, / et visitabit peccata eorum. 10I found Israel like grapes in the desert, I saw their fathers like the firstfruits of the fig tree in the top thereof: but they went in to Beelphegor, and alienated themselves to that confusion, and became abominable, as those things were, which they loved.Trovai Israele come un grappolo d'uva in mezzo al deserto, i padri loro mirai come i frutti primaticci sulla vetta d'una ficaia. Ma eglino nella casa entrarono di Beelphegor, si consagrarono all'obbrobrio, diventarono abbominevoli come le cose, che amarono.As grapes in the desert I found Israel: as the first fruites of the figtree in the toppe therof I saw their fathers: but they haue entered into Beelphegor, and are alienated into confusion, and are become abominable, as those thinges, which they loued.Quasi uvas in deserto inveni Israël, / quasi prima poma ficulneæ in cacumine ejus vidi patres eorum: / ipsi autem intraverunt ad Beelphegor, / et abalienati sunt in confusionem, / et facti sunt abominabiles sicut ea quæ dilexerunt.

11As for Ephraim, their glory hath flown away like a bird from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.La gloria di Ephraim è sparita come un uccello subito dopo il parto, nel seno materno, fin dal concepimento.Ephraim as a bird hath flowen away, their glorie from birth, and from the wombe, and from conception.Ephraim quasi avis avolavit; / gloria eorum a partu, et ab utero, et a conceptu. 12And though they should bring up their children, I will make them without children among men: yea, and woe to them, when I shall depart from them.E quand'anche rilevassero i loro figliuoli, io farò, che rimangan tra gli uomini senza figliuoli. E oltre a ciò guai a coloro, quand'io gli avrò lasciati in abbandono.But if they shal nourish vp their children, I wil make them without children among men: yea & wo to them, when I shal depart from them.Quod etsi enutrierint filios suos, / absque liberis eos faciam in hominibus; / sed et væ eis cum recessero ab eis ! 13Ephraim, as I saw, was a Tyre, founded in beauty: and Ephraim shall bring out his children to the murderer.Ephraim, qual io lo vidi, era simile a Tiro piantata in florido luogo: ma Ephraim darà i proprj figliuoli nelle mani dell'uccisore.Ephraim, as I saw, was Tyre founded in beautie: and Ephraim shal lead out his children to the murderer.Ephraim, ut vidi, Tyrus erat fundata in pulchritudine; / et Ephraim educet ad interfectorem filios suos. 14Give them, O Lord. What wilt thou give them? Give them a womb without children, and dry breasts.Dà loro, o Signore. Che darai loro? Dà loro uteri infecondi, e vizze mammelle.Geue them ô Lord, what wilt thou geue to them? Geue them a wombe without children, and dire brests.Da eis, Domine. Quid dabis eis ? / da eis vulvam sine liberis, et ubera arentia. 15All their wickedness is in Galgal, for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their devices I will cast them forth out of my house: I will love them no more, all their princes are revolters.Il sommo della loro malvagità fu a Galgal, ivi io li presi in avversione: li caccerò dalla mia casa a motivo dei perversi loro pensamenti: non avrò più amore per essi: tutti i loro principi son tanti ribelli.Al their wicked in Galgal, because there I hated them: for the malice of their inentions I wil cast forth out of my house: I wil not adde to loue them, al their princes reuolters.Omnes nequitiæ eorum in Galgal, / quia ibi exosos habui eos. / Propter malitiam adinventionum eorum, / de domo mea ejiciam eos; / non addam ut diligam eos: / omnes principes eorum recedentes.

16Ephraim is struck, their root is dried up, they shall yield no fruit. And if they should have issue, I will slay the best beloved fruit of their womb.Ephraim è stato percosso: secca è la loro radice: non produrranno più frutto: e quando divengano padri, io ucciderò loro i figliuoli più cari.Ephraim is strooken, their roote is dried vp, they shal yeld no fruite. But and if they shal haue issue, I wil kil the best beloued things of their wombe.Percussus est Ephraim; / radix eorum exsiccata est: / fructum nequaquam facient, / quod etsi genuerint, / interficiam amantissima uteri eorum. 17My God will cast them away, because they hearkened not to him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.Rigetteralli il mio Dio, perchè non lo hanno ascoltato, e saran vagabondi tralle nazioni.My God wil cast them away, because they heare him not: and they shal be vagabunds in the nations.Abjiciet eos Deus meus, quia non audierunt eum, / et erunt vagi in nationibus.
