¹The word of Yahweh “Yahweh” is God’s proper Name, sometimes rendered “LORD” (all caps) in other translations. that came to Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

¹Slovo Hospodinovo, ktoré sa stalo k Hozeášovi, synovi Bériho, za dní Uziáša, Jotama, Achaza a Ezechiáša, kráľov Júdových a za dní Jeroboáma, syna Joasa, kráľa Izraelovho.

²When Yahweh spoke at first by Hosea, Yahweh said to Hosea, “Go, take for yourself a wife of prostitution and children of unfaithfulness; for the land commits great adultery, forsaking Yahweh.”

²Na počiatku, keď hovoril Hospodin Hozeášom, riekol Hospodin Hozeášovi: Idi, vezmi si ženu, kleslú do smilstva, a deti zo smilstva, lebo nestudate smilní táto zem nenasledujúc Hospodina.

³So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; and she conceived, and bore him a son.

³A Išiel a vzal si Gomer, dcéru Diblaima, a počnúc porodila mu syna.

⁴Yahweh said to him, “Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, and will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease.

⁴A Hospodin mu riekol: Nazvi jeho meno Jizreel, lebo ešte niečo málo, a navštívim krv Jizreela na dome Jehu-va a učiním prietrž kráľovstvu domu Izraelovho.

⁵It will happen in that day that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.”

⁵A stane sa toho dňa, že polámem lučište Izraelovo v údolí Jizreela.

⁶She conceived again, and bore a daughter. Then he said to him, “Call her name Lo-Ruhamah Lo-Ruhamah means “not loved.” ; for I will no longer have mercy on the house of Israel, that I should in any way pardon them.

⁶A zase počala a porodila dcéru. A riekol mu: Nazvi jej meno: Ló-rucháma, lebo sa už viacej nezľutujem nad domom Izraelovým, aby som im niečo odpustil.

⁷But I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and will save them by Yahweh their God The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “Elohim.” , and will not save them by bow, sword, battle, horses, or horsemen.”

⁷Ale sa zľutujem nad domom Júdovým a zachránim ich Hospodinom, ich Bohom, a nezachránim ich lučišťom ani mečom ani vojnou, koňmi alebo jazdcami.

⁸Now when she had weaned Lo-Ruhamah, she conceived, and bore a son.

⁸A keď odlúčila Ló-ruchámu, počala a porodila syna.

⁹He said, “Call his name Lo-Ammi Lo-Ammi means “not my people” ; for you are not my people, and I will not be yours.

⁹A riekol: Nazvi jeho meno Ló-ammi, lebo vy nie ste mojím ľudom, a ja nebudem vaším Bohom.

¹⁰Yet the number of the children of Israel will be as the sand of the sea, which can’t be measured nor numbered; and it will come to pass that, in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’

¹⁰Avšak bude počet synov Izraelových ako piesku mora, ktorý sa nedá ani zmerať ani spočítať, a stane sa, že na mieste, kde im bolo povedané: Vy nie ste mojím ľudom, povie sa im: Synovia silného Boha živého.

¹¹The children of Judah and the children of Israel will be gathered together, and they will appoint themselves one head, and will go up from the land; for great will be the day of Jezreel.

¹¹A synovia Júdovi a synovia Izraelovi budú shromaždení dovedna, a ustanovia si jednu hlavu a vyjdú hore zo zeme, lebo veľký bude deň Jizreela.
