are not connected. For when God compares himself to a fir-tree, he speaks only of protection: and we know that when one seeks a cooling shade, he may find it under a fir-tree; besides, it is always green, as we all know, when leaves fall from other trees; and further, its height and thickness afford a good shadow. The reason, then, why God promises to be like a fir-tree to his people is this, because all who will fly under his shadow shall be preserved from the heat. But the meaning of the second similitude, that God would supply his people with fruit, is different. The Prophet had said before that the Israelites would be like a tree, which fixes its roots deep in the ground. He now transfers the name of a tree to God. Both these things are true; for when God makes us fruitful we are branches set in the best vine; and it is also true, that the whole fruit we have is from him; for all vigour would fail us, except God were to supply us with moisture, and even life itself. We now then see that there is no inconsistency in the words of the Prophet, as the object is different From me then is thy fruit found; as though God said, that the Israelites, if wise, would be content with his favour; for they who seek support from him will be satisfied; because they will find from him fruit sufÏciently rich and abundant. We now then understand what is meant. But it follows ---
Hosea 14:9
9. Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the Lord are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.
9. Quis sapiens, et intelliget haec? Intelligens, et cognoscet ea? Quia rectae viae
Jehovae, et justi ambulabunt in illis; et impii impingent in illis.
The Prophet, I have no doubt, very often inculcated what he here says, and frequently recalled it to mind, for we know that he had a constant struggle with extreme obstinacy. It was not only for one day that he found the people hard and perverse, but through the whole course of his preaching. Since then the Israelites continued, either openly to despise the Prophet's teaching, or at least to regard as fables what they heard from his mouth, or to chide him in words, and even to threaten him, when he treated them with severity and when the Prophet saw that the wickedness of the people was irreclaimable, he, being armed with confidence, no doubt went forth very often among them, and said ``Ye think that you shall be unpunished, while ye make a mock of what I teach; ye shall surely find at last that the ways of the Lord are right.'' And I have already reminded you, that the Prophets, after having harangued the people at large and in many words, reduced at last into brief heads what they had taught; for it is not probable, that since Hosea had so long discharged the ofÏce of a teacher, he had spoken only these few things, which might have been gone through in three hours. This is absurd. But when he had diligently attended to the ofÏce deputed to him, he afterwards, as I have said, collected together these few chapters, that the remembrance of his teaching might be perpetuated. What he was constrained then often to repeat, he now lays down at the end of his book, that it might be as it were a complete sealing up of his teaching.
Who is wise, he says, and he will understand these things? who is intelligent, and he will know them? This interrogatory mode is expressive; for Hosea was amazed
HOSEA
at the fewness of those who yielded themselves to be taught by God. The Israelites no doubt, arrogated to themselves great wisdom, as ungodly men are wont to do.
For they seem to themselves to be then especially acute, when they laugh at every thing like piety, when they treat God's name with scorn, and indulge themselves, as we see at this day, in their own impiety. And this diabolical rage lays hold on many, because they think that they would be very simple and stupid, were they to embrace any thing the Scripture contains. ``O! what is faith but foolish credulity?'' This is the thought that comes to their minds. There are also filthy dogs, who hesitate not to vomit forth such a reproach as this, ``Only believe! But what is this thy believing, but wilfully to give up all judgement and all choice, and to allow thyself to be like mute cattle driven here and there? If then thou art wise, believe nothing.'' Thus godless men speak; and hence, as I have said, they pride themselves on their own acuteness, when they can shake off every fear of God and all regard for divine truth.
There were many such, we may easily believe, in the time of the Prophet. Since then the whole land was filled with dreadful contempt of God, and yet men commonly thought themselves wise, nay, imagined in their deep thoughts, as Isaiah says, 101 that they could deceive God, he now asks, Who is wise, and he will understand? As though he said, ``I indeed see, that if I believe you, ye are all wise; for, imitating the giants, ye dare to rise up against God, and ye think yourselves ingenious when ye elude every truth, when ye proudly tread religion under foot; in this way ye are all wise. But at the same time, if there be any grain of wisdom in you, you must surely acknowledge me to be sent by God, and that what I declare is not the invention of men, but the word of the living God.'' We now then see what force there is in this question, when the Prophet says, Who is wise, and he will understand these things?
Who is intelligent, and he will know them?
We at the same time see that the Prophet here condemns all the wisdom of men, and as it were thunders from heaven against the pride of those who thus presumptuously mock God; for how much soever they imagined themselves to be pre-eminent, he intimates that they were both blind and stupid and mad. Who then is wise? he says. But at the same time, he shows that the true wisdom of men is to obey God and to embrace his word; as it is said in another place, that wisdom and the beginning of wisdom is the fear of God, (Proverbs 1:7.) Whosoever then wishes to be truly wise, he must begin with the fear of God and with reverence to his word; for where there is no religion, men cannot certainly understand any thing aright. Let us suppose men endued, not only with great clearness of mind, but also with the knowledge of all the sciences; let them be philosophers, let them be physicians, let them be lawyers, let nothing be wanting to them, except that they have no true knowledge of eternal life, would it not be better for them to be mere cattle than to be thus wise, to exercise their minds for a short time on fading things, and to know that all their highly valued treasure shall perish with their life? Surely to be thus wise is far more wretched than if men were wholly void of understanding. Justly then does the Prophet intimate here that those were not only foolish, but also mad, and wholly destitute of all understanding, who regarded not celestial truth, and were deaf to
101Isaiah 19:15. — fj.
JOHN CALVIN
the Prophets, and discerned not when God spake, nor understood the power of his word. All then who are not thus wise, the Prophet justly says, are utterly void of all prudence and judgement: he therefore repeats the same thing, Who is wise, and he will understand these things? Who is intelligent, and he will know them? that is,
any excels others, he ought surely to show in this particular his wisdom, and if any one is endued with common understanding, he ought to know what this doctrine means, in which the image and glory of God shine forth brightly. All then who know and understand nothing in this respect are no doubt altogether foolish.''
He afterwards adds, For right are the ways of Jehovah He alleges this truth in opposition to the profane rashness of men, who haughtily reject God, and dare to despise his word. Right, he says, are the ways of the Lord: and by saying that they are right, he no doubt glances at the abominable blasphemies which the ungodly have recourse to, when they wish to render the word of God not only odious and contemptible, but also absurd, so as not to deserve any respect. Thus we see at this day, that godless men not only in words reject both the Law and the Prophets, but also search out pretences, that they may appear to be doing right in destroying all faith in the oracles of God. For instance, they seek out every sort of contradiction in Scripture, every thing not well received, every thing different from the common opinion, --- all these absurdities, as they call them, they collect together, and then they draw this conclusion, that all those are fools, who submit to any religion, since the word of God, as they say, contains so many absurd things. This raving madness prevailed then no doubt in the world: and the Prophet, by saying that right are the ways of Jehovah, means, that how much soever the ungodly may clamour, or murmur, or taunt, nothing is yet done by the Lord but what is right, and free from every blame and defect. However much then the ungodly may vomit forth slanders against the word of God, it is the same as if they threw dust into the air to darken the light of the sun; just so much they effect, he seems to say, by their audacity: for perfect rectitude will ever be found in the ways of the Lord; his word will ever be found free from every stain or defect.
He then adds, And the just shall walk in them, but in them shall the ungodly stumble By saying that the just shall walk in them, he confirms the last sentence by experience, for the just really find the ways of the Lord to be right We ought also to be furnished with this assurance, if we would boldly repel all the impious calumnies, which are usually heaped together by profane men against the word of God: for if we know not what it is to walk in the ways of the Lord, we shall surely, as soon as any thing is alleged against them, be suspended in doubt, or be wholly upset; for we see that many, not deeply rooted in the word of God, instantly quail, as soon as any thing is said against it, because they know not what it is to walk in the ways of the Lord; but they who walk in the Lord's ways courageously fight against all the temptations of the world; they carry on the context that they may attain celestial life; they feel assured that though now miserable for a time, they shall yet be blessed, for they have embraced the grace of God in Christ; they are sustained too by their own conscience, so that they can look down on all the reproaches and slanders of the world, and proceed onward in their course. They then who thus walk in the
HOSEA
ways of the Lord are unconquerable; yea, were the whole world to oppose them, and were the ungodly with their profane words to infect the whole atmosphere, the godly would still pursue their course until they reached the end. All the ways of Jehovah are therefore right, the just shall walk in them; but in them shall the ungodly stumble, or fall; for {,}כשלcashel, means both, but I prefer rendering it ``stumble,'' as it seems more suitable to the design of the Prophet. The just then find a plain and an even way in the word of the Lord, and nothing stands in their path to obstruct their course, and by daily advances they attain that to which the Lord calls them, even their celestial inheritance. The just shall thus walk in the Lord's ways, because the
Lord will lead them, as it were, by his hand; faith will be to them for hundred eyes, and also for wings: and hope, at the same time, sustains them; for they are armed with promises and encouragements; they have also stimulants, whenever the Lord earnestly exhorts them; they have, besides, in his threatenings, such terrors as keep them awake. Thus then the faithful find in the word of the Lord the best ways, and they follow them. But what of the ungodly? They imagine all doubts, even the least, to be mountains: for as soon as they meet with any thing intricate or obscure, they are confounded, and says ``I would gladly seek to know the Holy Scriptures but I meet with so many difÏculties.'' Hence when a doubt is suggested, they regard it as a mountain; nay, they purposely pretend doubts, that they may have some excuse, when they wish to evade the truth, and turn aside that they may not follow the
Lord. The ungodly, then, stumble in the ways of Jehovah. But this ought to be read adversatively, ``Though the ungodly stumble, yet the just shall always walk in the ways of Jehovah;'' which means, that there is no reason why the ungodly should stop or retard us by their continual stumbling, and by exclaiming that the word of God is full of what gives offence; for we shall find in it an even way, only let us ascribe to
God this glory, that he is just, and that his ways are right. This is the meaning of the sentence.

CHAPTER 1
1 THE word of Jehovah, which came to Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of
Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam, the son of Joash, king of Israel.
2 The beginning of what Jehovah spoke by Hosea: Jehovah said to Hosea, ``Go, take to thee a wife of wantonness, and children of wantonness; for by wantoning the land hath become wanton, so that it follows not Jehovah.''
3 And he went and took Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim; and she conceived, and bare him a son:
4 And Jehovah said to him, ``Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while and I will visit the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel;
5 And it shall be in that day, that I will break in pieces the bow in the valley of
Jezreel.''
6 And she conceived again, and bare a daughter; and he said to him, ``Call her name Loruchamah; for I will no more show mercy to the house of Israel, for I will utterly take them away: (56.) 102
7 But to the house of Judah I will show mercy, and will save them by Jehovah their
God; and I will save them neither by the bow, nor by the sword, nor by battle, nor by horses, nor by horsemen.''
8 And she weaned Lo-ruchamah, and conceived, and bare a son;
9 And he said, ``Call his name Lo-ammi; for ye are not my people, and I will not be yours:
10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall be, that in the place where it had

Israel, and shall set over themselves one head, and shall ascend from the land, though great shall be the day of Jezreel.''

CHAPTER 2. 103
1 Say to your brethren, ``My people;'' And to your sisters, ``Beloved.'' ---
2 Contend with your mother, contend; For she is not my wife, and I am not her husband: Let her then remove her fornications from her face,And her adulteries from the midst of her breasts;
3 Lest I strip her naked, And place her as on the day of her nativity, And set her as the desert, and set her as a dry land, And make her to die with thirst.
4 And her children I will not pity; For they are spurious children:
5 For the wanton has their mother played; With lewdness is she defiled who hath conceived them; For she said, --- ``I will go after my lovers, Who give me my bread and my waters, My wool, and my flax, and my oil, and lily drink.''
6 Behold, therefore, I will close up her way with thorns, And surround her with a mound, And her path she shall not find;
7 And she will follow her lovers, and shall not overtake them, And will seek them, and shall not find them; Then she will say, --- ``I will go and return to my former husband, For better was it. with me then than now.''
8 And she knew not that I gave to her corn, and wine, and oil, And multiplied to her the silver and the gold, Which they applied to Baal.
9 I will therefore return, and take away the corn in its time, And my new wine in its season; And will snatch away my wool and flax, By which she covered her own nakedness;
10 And I will now uncover her baseness before the eyes of her lovers, And no one shall rescue her from my hand;

11 And I will cause to cease all her joy and her mirth, Her new Moon, her sabbath, and every festal-day;
12 And I will destroy her vine and her fig-tree, Of which she said, --- ``These are my rewards, Which my lovers have given me;'' And will set them as the forest, And eat them shall the beast of the field;
13 And I will visit on her the days of Baalim, To whom she offered incense, And adorned herself with her earring and her chain, And went after her lovers, and forgat me, saith Jehovah.
14 Behold, therefore, I will turn her, When I shall have led her to the desert, And will speak to her heart;
15 And will give her thence her vineyards, And the valley of Achor for a door of hope; And there she will sing as in the days of her youth, And as in the day she ascended from the land of Egypt.
16 And it shall be in that day, saith Jehovah, That thou shalt call me, --- ``My
Husband,'' And shalt no more call me, --- ``My Baal:''
17 And I will take away the names of Baalim from her mouth, And she will no more remember their name:
18 I will also make for them a covenant, in that day, With the beast of the field, and the bird of heaven, and the reptile of the earth; And the bow, and the sword, and the battle, I will break from the land; And I will make them rest in security:
19 I will also espouse thee to me for ever, And espouse thee to me in righteousness, And in judgment, and in kindness, and in mercies; And I will espouse thee to me in faithfulness, And thou shalt know Jehovah.
20 And in that day I will hear, saith Jehovah, I will hear the heavens, and they will hear the earth, And the earth will hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil, And these will hear Jezreel: And I will sow her for me in the land, And show mercy to her who obtained not mercy, And will say to Lo-ammi, --- ``Ye are my people'' And they will say, --- *``Thou art* our God.''

CHAPTER
1 And Jehovah said to me, --- ``Go again, love a woman beloved by a husband, and who is an adulteress, --- according to the love of Jehovah towards the children of Israel, who yet look to strange gods, and love flagons of grapes.''
2 And I bought her for myself for fifteen silverings and one homer of barley, and half an homer of barley.
3 And I said to her, --- ``For many days shalt thou abide for me; thou shalt not play the wanton, and shalt not be for any man, and I also shall be for thee.''
4 For the children of Israel shall for many days abide without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without a statue, and without an ephod, and without teraphim.
5 Afterward shall the children of Israel return and seek Jehovah their God, and
David their king; and they shall fear Jehovah and his goodness at the end of days.
Translation: Hosea 4
1 Hear the word of Jehovah, ye children of Israel; For a contention has Jehovah with the inhabitants of the land, For there is no faithfulness and no kindness, And no knowledge of God in the land:
2 Cursing, and lying, and murder, And stealing, and adultery, have burst forth;
And blood have touched blood.
3 Mourn therefore shall the land, And languish shall every one who dwells in it;
Together with the beast of the field, the bird of heaven, And also the fish of the sea, shall they be taken away.
4 But yet no man may rebuke and reprove a man; For thy people are as those who chide the priest.
5 Fall then shalt thou in the daytime, And fall also shall the Prophet with thee in the night; And I will destroy thy mother.
6 Perished have my people without knowledge: As thou hast rejected knowledge,
I will also reject thee, That thou shalt not discharge for me the priesthood; And as thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, Thy children will I also forget.
7 According to their increase, so have they sinned against me: Their glory will I turn to shame.
8 The sin of my people they eat, And to their iniquity they raise up the soul of each. (154)
9 And it shall be, as the people so shall be the priest; And I will visit on them their ways, And their works will I repay them:
10 For they shall eat, and shall not be satisfied: They shall play the wanton, and shall not increase; For Jehovah have they left off to serve.
11 Wantonness and wine, and new wine, take away the heart.

13 On the tops of mountains they sacrifice, And on hills they burn incense --- Under the oak, and the poplar, and the teil-tree, For pleasant is its shade. Therefore your daughters shall become wanton, And your daughters-in-law shall be adulteresses. ---
14 I will not punish your daughters, because they become wanton, Nor your daughters-in-law, because they have committed adulteries; For they with strumpets separate themselves, And with harlots they sacrifice: --- And the people who understand not shall stumble.
15 If thou, Israel, art become wanton, let not Judah offend; Come ye not to Gilgal, nor ascend into Bethaven, Nor swear, Jehovah liveth.
16 For as an untameable heifer, untameable is Israel: Now feed him will Jehovah, as a tender lamb, in a spacious place.
17 To idols has Ephraim joined himself; --- leave him.

4 What shall I do to thee, Ephraim? What shall I do to thee, Judah? For your goodness is like the morning dew, Like the cloud which passeth away early.
5 I have therefore hewn them by my Prophets, I have slain them by the words of my mouth; And thy judgments have been as the light which goeth forth:
6 For mercy I desire, and not sacrifice, And the knowledge of God before burntofferings.
7 But they as men have transgressed the covenant; In this they have dealt perfidiously with me.
8 Gilead is a city of those who work iniquity, filled with blood;

1 While I was healing Israel, Then were discovered the iniquity of Ephraim, And the vices of Samaria; For they dealt falsely, and the thief entered in, The robber plundered abroad:

7 All are hot like an oven; They have consumed their own judges, --- All their kings have fallen; --- No one among them cries to me.
8 Ephraim mingles himself with the nations; Ephraim is become bread baked under the ashes, Which has not been turned:
9 Eaten have strangers his strength, and he knows it not; And hoariness has spread over him, and he knows it not;
10 And testify does the pride of Israel to his face; But they have not returned to
Jehovah their God, Nor sought him notwithstanding all these things.
11 Ephraim is also like a silly dove, without understanding; They cry on Egypt, they go to Assyria:
12 But when they go, I will expand over them my net, As a bird of heaven, I will bring them down, I will hold them fast, as their assembly have heard.
13 Woe to them! for they have gone back from me; Desolation to them! for they have dealt perfidiously with me: Though I redeemed them, They have yet spoken
HOSEA
lies against me:
14 And they have not cried to me with their heart; For they howled on their beds;
For corn and wine they assemble together; --- They have revolted from me: (269)
15 Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, Yet against me they contrive evil.
16 They return not to God; They have been like a deceitful bow: Fallen by the sword have their princes, Through the pride of their tongue; --- This will be their reproach in the land of Egypt.

4 They have caused to reign, but not by me; Dominion have they set up, but I knew not; Of their silver and their gold they have made for themselves idols; They shall therefore be cut off.
5 Cast thee far away has thy calf, O Samaria! --- Kindled has my fury against them: How long will they not bear cleanness?

11 Because Ephraim has multiplied altars to sin, Altars for sinning shall be to him.
12 I have written for him the precious things of my law; As something strange have they been accounted.
13 For sacrifices of burnt-offerings they offer flesh, and eat; Jehovah will not regard it as acceptable: He will now remember their iniquity, He will visit their wickedness; --- To Egypt shall they return.

And in Assyria they shall eat what is unclean:
4 To Jehovah they shall not pour wine, And acceptable to him shall not be their libations; Their sacrifices shall be to them as the bread of mourners, --- Whosoever will eat shall be polluted; For their bread for their soul, It shall not come into the house of Jehovah.
5 What will ye do on the solemn day, On the festal-day of Jehovah?
6 For, behold, they are gone away on account of desolation; --- Egypt will gather them, Memphis will bury them. The wished-for store of their silver will the nettle possess, --- The thorn shall be in their tents.
7 The days of visitation have come, The days of retribution have come: Israel shall know the prophet to be foolish, And mad the man of the spirit, --- For the number of thy iniquity and great hatred.

15 All their evil is in Gilgal; For there I conceived hatred against them: On account of the wickedness of their works, From my house I will cast them out; I will not continue to love them; --- All their princes are apostates.
16 Smitten has Ephraim been; Their root has dried up, --- fruit they will not bear:
And if they bring forth, I will slay The wished---for fruit of their womb. ---

2 Divided has been their heart; They shall now be proved guilty: --- He will overturn their altars, He will destroy their statues.
3 For now they will say, --- ``We have no king, Because we feared not Jehovah;
And a king, what will he do for us?'' ---
4 They have spoken words only, --- Swearing falsely, --- making a covenant: (356)
Judgment grows up as wormwood in the furrows of the field.
5 For the calves of Bethaven, (359) Tremble will the inhabitants of Samaria; For mourn over it will its people, And its priests, who rejoice in it, over its glory: For it shall depart from it;
6 And itself shall to Assyria be carried, A present to king Jareb: --- Shame shall
Ephraim receive, And ashamed shall Israel be of his counsel.
7 Cut down shall be the king of Samaria, As a foam on the surface of the waters.
8 Perish shall the high places of Aven --- the sin of Israel; The thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; And they shall say to the mountains, ``Cover us,'' And to the hills, ``Fall on us.''
9 From the days of Gibeah hast thou, Israel, sinned: There they stood, --- the battle in Gibeah, Against the children of iniquity, laid not hold on them.
10 It is my wish, and I will chastise them; And assembled against them shall nations be, When they shall be bound together by their two furrows. (371)
11 Ephraim is an heifer, trained to love the treading of corn; But I passed over on her beautiful neck; --- To ride will I make Ephraim, --- Plough shall Judah, --- harrow for himself shall Jacob.
JOHN CALVIN
12 Sow for yourselves in righteousness, Gather for your measure kindness; Plough for yourselves what has been ploughed: And time it is to seek Jehovah, till he come,
And rain righteousness upon you: ---
13 Ye have ploughed ungodliness, iniquity have ye reaped; Ye have eaten the fruit of falsehood: For you have trusted in your own way, In the multitude of thy valiant ones.
14 A tumult shall therefore rise among thy people, And every one of thy fortresses shall be laid waste, According to the devastation of Shalman in Betharbel: In the day of battle shall the mother, With the children, be dashed in pieces. ---
15 Thus shall Bethel do to you, On account of wickedness --- of your wickedness:
In one morning shall utterly perish the king of Israel.
Translation: Hosea 11
1 When Israel was a child, then I loved him: And from Egypt I called my son. ---
2 They called them; --- so they turned away from their presence; --- To Baalim they offered sacrifices, And to graven images they burnt incense.
3 And I, my walking was on foot, To raise up Ephraim by his arms: And they knew not that I healed them.
4 By the cords of man I drew them, by the chains of love: And I was to them as those who raise up the yoke on the cheeks; And I have extended meat to them.
5 They shall not return to the land of Egypt, Assur shall rule over them; For they have been unwilling to return:
6 And fall shall the sword on their cities, And destroy their bars; And it shall destroy on account of their counsels.
7 For my people are bent on defection from me; When to the Most High they call them, No one at all raises up himself.
8 How shall I set thee aside, Ephraim? Shall I deliver thee up, Israel? How shall I make thee as Sodom? Shall I set thee as Zeboim? Inverted within me is my heart,
Rolled back again are my repentings:
9 I will not execute the fury of my wrath, I will not return to destroy Ephraim; For
God am I, and not man, In the midst of thee, holy; --- And I will not enter the city.
10 After Jehovah shall they walk, And as a lion will he roar; When he shall roar, then dread shall children from the sea, ---
11 They shall dread as a sparrow in Egypt, And as a dove in the land of Assur;
And I will make them to dwell in their own houses, saith Jehovah.
12 Surrounded me hath Ephraim with falsehood; And with fraud, the house of
Israel: But Judah as yet rules with his God; And together with the saints he is faithful.
Translation: Hosea 12
1 Ephraim feeds on the wind, and pursues the east wind; Daily he multiplies falsehood and devastation: A covenant they make with the Assyrian, And oil is carried into Egypt.
2 Jehovah has also a contention with Judah; And he will visit Jacob; --- according to his ways, According to his works, he will requite him.
3 In the womb he laid hold on his brother's foot, And by his strength he had power with God;
4 And he had power with the Angel and prevailed; He wept and entreated him: In
Bethel he found him; --- and there he spoke with us,
5 Even Jehovah, God of hosts, --- Jehovah is his memorial,
6 And thou, to thy God return; Goodness and judgment observe, And hope in thy
God always.
7 Canaan! --- in his hand is the balance of fraud; He loves to plunder:
8 Yet Ephraim said, ``I am however become rich; I have found wealth for myself;
In all my labors they shall not find in me An iniquity, which is a sin.''
9 But I, Jehovah, thy God from the land of Egypt. Will yet make thee to dwell in tents, As in the days of the assembly.
10 I have also spoken by the Prophets, And visions have I multiplied, And through the Prophets used similitudes: ---
11 Is there (still) iniquity in Gilead? --- Surely vain have they been: In Gilgal they have sacrificed oxen, And their altars have been as heaps On the furrows of the field.
12 Even Jacob fled to the land of Syria, And Israel served for a wife, And for a wife he kept sheep:
13 And by a Prophet did Jehovah bring Israel out of Egypt, And by a Prophet he was preserved: ---
14 (Yet) Ephraim has provoked him by his high places; (446) But his blood shall
HOSEA
on him remain, And his reproach 104 will his Lord return to him.
104Is it not the reproach of Jacob, mentioned above, he having been in a servile state? — Ed.
Translation: Hosea 13
1 When Ephraim spoke there was trembling; He exalted himself in Israel: But he sinned by Baal and died.
2 And now they have added to their sin, And have made for themselves what is molten, From their silver, according to their own understanding, Even idols --- all being the work of artificers: To each other they, who sacrifice men, say, --- ``Let them kiss the calves.''
3 They shall therefore be like a morning cloud, Like the dew that rises up early,
Like the chaff which is driven by a whirlwind from the floor, And like the smoke from the chimney.
4 But I, Jehovah, am thy God from the land of Egypt; And a god besides me thou shouldst not know; For a Savior, there is none except me.
5 I knew thee in the desert, in the land of droughts:
6 According to their pastures they were filled; (459) They were filled, and their heart was elevated: And hence they forgat me.
7 I will therefore be to them as a lion, As a leopard in the way I will lie in wait;
8 I will meet them as a bereaved bear, And rend the inclosure of their heart; I will devour them as a lion; --- The beast of the field shall tear them.
9 Destroyed art thou, Israel, Though in me was thy help: (464)
10 I will be the same; --- thy king, where is he? To save thee in all thy cities, ---
And thy princes? --- of whom thou hast said --- ``Give me a king and princes.''
11 I gave thee a king in my anger, And took him away in my fury.
12 Sealed up is the iniquity of Ephraim, Laid up in store is his sin.
13 The sorrows of one in travail shall come on him; He is an unwise son; For he should not stand long in the breaking forth of children.
14 From the power of the grave would I deliver them, From death would I redeem them; I would be thy perdition, O death; I would be thy destruction, O grave: ---
HOSEA
Repentance is hid from my eyes.
15 Though among his brethren he may increase, Yet there shall come an east wind The wind of Jehovah, ascending from the desert; And it will dry up his spring,
And dried shall be his fountain; It will spoil the store of every desirable vessel.
16 Desolated shall be Samaria, For she has provoked her God: By the sword shall they fall; Their infants shall be dashed in pieces, Their pregnant women shall be ripped up.
Translation: Hosea 14
1 Return, Israel, to Jehovah thy God; For thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.
2 Take with you words, and turn to Jehovah, And say to him, --- ``Take away all iniquity, and bring good; And we shall render to thee the calves of our lips.
3 The Assyrian shall not save us, On a horse we shall not mount, And we shall not henceforth say, --- Our gods,' to the works of our hands; For in thee will the fatherless find mercy.''
4 I will heal their defections, I will love them freely; For turned aside is my fury from him.
5 I will be as dew to Israel; He shall flourish as the lily, He shall fix his roots as
Libanus;
6 Spread shall his branches, And as that of the olive shall be his comeliness, And his fragrance like that of Libanus.
7 Refreshed shall they be who shall dwell under his shadow; They shall revive as the corn, and germinate like the vine His odor shall be like that of the wine of
Libanus.
8 Ephraim shall say, ``What have I to do any more with idols?'' I have heard, and showed him favor, --- ``I shall be to thee a shady fir-tree; --- From me is thy fruit found.'' Who is wise? and he will understand these things;
9 Who is intelligent? and he will know them: For right are the ways of Jehovah,
And the just shall walk in them; But in them will the ungodly stumble.
