¹Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, like the peoples; for thou hast played the harlot, [departing] from thy God; thou hast loved hire upon every grain-floor.

¹Ära rõõmusta, Iisrael, ära hõiska nagu teised rahvad! Sest sa oled hoora viisil lahkunud oma Jumalast, oled armastanud hoorapalka kõigis rehealustes.

²The threshing-floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail her.

²Rehi ja surutõrs neid ei toida ja veini ei pea neil olema.

³They shall not dwell in Jehovah's land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.

³Nad ei saa jääda Issanda maale, vaid Efraim läheb tagasi Egiptusesse ja nad peavad Assuris sööma roojaseid asju.

⁴They shall not pour out wine-offerings to Jehovah, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted; for their bread shall be for their appetite; it shall not come into the house of Jehovah.

⁴Seal nad ei kalla Issandale veini ja nende tapaohvrid pole talle meele järgi; nende leib on nagu leinaleib: kõik, kes seda söövad, rüvetavad endid; sest leiba on neil ainult eneste jaoks, Issanda kotta seda ei tule.

⁵What will ye do in the day of solemn assembly, and in the day of the feast of Jehovah?

⁵Mida te teete pühade ajal, Issanda-püha päevadel?

⁶For, lo, they are gone away from destruction; [yet] Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them; their pleasant things of silver, nettles shall possess them; thorns shall be in their tents.

⁶Jah, vaata, nad peavad lahkuma laastamise pärast; neid kogub Egiptus, neid matab Memfis; umbrohi pärib nende hõbeasjad, nende telkides kasvavad ohakad.

⁷The days of visitation are come, the days of recompense are come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the man that hath the spirit is mad, for the abundance of thine iniquity, and because the enmity is great.

⁷Katsumise päevad tulevad, kättemaksu päevad tulevad, Iisrael saab seda tunda. 'Prohvet on rumal, vaimumees on hull!' Et su süü on suur, siis on ka vaen suur.

⁸Ephraim [was] a watchman with my God: as for the prophet, a fowler's snare is in all his ways, [and] enmity in the house of his God.

⁸Efraim luurab prohvetit, kes on mu Jumalaga. Kõigil ta teedel on linnupüüdja pael, ta Jumala kojas on vaenulikkus.

⁹They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.

⁹Nad on sügavalt laostunud, otsekui Gibea päevil; aga tema mäletab nende süüd ja nuhtleb neid nende pattude eest.

¹⁰I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the first-ripe in the fig-tree at its first season: but they came to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves unto the shameful thing, and became abominable like that which they loved.

¹⁰Ma leidsin Iisraeli nagu viinamarjad kõrbes; nagu esimesed marjad noorel viigipuul, nõnda leidsin teie vanemad. Aga nad tulid Baal-Peori, pühendasid endid Häbile ja muutusid põlastusväärseiks nagu see, keda nad armastasid.

¹¹As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird: there shall be no birth, and none with child, and no conception.

¹¹Efraim - linnuna lendab ära nende au, enam ei ole sünnitust, rasedust ega eostust.

¹²Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, so that not a man shall be left: yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!

¹²Ja kuigi nad kasvataksid oma lapsed suureks, teen mina nad lastetuks, inimestest lahti. Tõesti, häda neile, kui ma neist eemaldun!

¹³Ephraim, like as I have seen Tyre, is planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring out his children to the slayer.

¹³Efraim, nagu ma näen, on palmiks, mis on istutatud vainule; aga Efraim peab viima oma lapsed tapja kätte.

¹⁴Give them, O Jehovah-what wilt thou give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.

¹⁴Anna neile, Issand, mida sa pidid andma: anna neile viljatu rüpp ja kuivetunud rinnad!

¹⁵All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I hated them: because of the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of my house; I will love them no more; all their princes are revolters.

¹⁵Kõik nende kurjus on Gilgalis, seal hakkasin ma neid vihkama. Nende kurjade tegude pärast ajan ma nad ära oma kojast. Ma ei armasta neid enam: kõik nende vürstid on tõrksad.

¹⁶Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay the beloved fruit of their womb.

¹⁶Efraim lüüakse maha, nende juur kuivab, nad ei kanna vilja. Kui nad siiski sünnitaksid, surmaksin mina nende kalli ihuvilja.

¹⁷My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto him; and they shall be wanderers among the nations.

¹⁷Minu Jumal hülgab nad, sest nad ei kuula teda. Neist saavad põgenikud paganate seas.
