Суд над Исроилом

– Слушайте это, священнослужители!
    Вы, исроильтяне, внимайте!
Слушай, царский дом!
    Этот суд против вас,
потому что вы были западнёй в Мицпе
    и сетью, раскинутой на горе Фавор.
Мятежники глубоко погрязли в распутстве,
    но Я их всех накажу.
Я знаю всё об Ефраиме,
    Исроил не скрыт от Меня.
Ефраим, теперь ты обратился к разврату;
    Исроил уже осквернён.

Их поступки не позволяют им
    вернуться к своему Богу.
В их сердцах дух разврата,
    они не знают Вечного.
Гордость Исроила свидетельствует против него;
    Исроил и Ефраим спотыкаются из-за своих грехов;
    спотыкается и Иудея вместе с ними.
Когда они пойдут искать Вечного
    со своими овцами и волами,
они не найдут Его:
    Он удалился от них.
Они не верны Вечному,
    потому что рожают незаконных детей.
Теперь же их праздники Новолуния[a]
    сами поглотят их вместе с их полями.

Вострубите рогом в Гиве,
    трубой в Раме.
Издайте боевой клич в Бет-Авене («дом зла»)[b]:
    «За тобою, Вениамин!»
Ефраим будет опустошён
    в день наказания.
Среди родов Исроила
    Я возвещаю то, что случится непременно.
10 Вожди Иудеи стали как те,
    кто передвигает межи.
Я обрушу на них Свой гнев,
    как поток воды.
11 Ефраим угнетён,
    поражён судом,
    потому что он намеревался следовать за идолами.[c]
12 Я словно моль для Ефраима,
    как гниль для народа Иудеи.

13 Когда Ефраим увидел свою болезнь,
    а Иудея свои раны,
тогда Ефраим обратился к Ассирии[d]
    и послал за помощью к великому царю[e].
Но он не может вылечить вас
    и не может исцелить ваши раны.
14 Потому что Я буду как лев для Ефраима
    и как молодой лев для Иудеи.
Я растерзаю их на куски и уйду;
    Я унесу их, и никто не спасёт.
15 Потом Я уйду в Свою обитель,
    пока они не признают свою вину
    и не начнут искать Моего лица.

Judgment Against Israel

“Hear this, you priests!
    Pay attention, you Israelites!
Listen, royal house!
    This judgment(A) is against you:
You have been a snare(B) at Mizpah,
    a net(C) spread out on Tabor.
The rebels are knee-deep in slaughter.(D)
    I will discipline all of them.(E)
I know all about Ephraim;
    Israel is not hidden(F) from me.
Ephraim, you have now turned to prostitution;
    Israel is corrupt.(G)

“Their deeds do not permit them
    to return(H) to their God.
A spirit of prostitution(I) is in their heart;
    they do not acknowledge(J) the Lord.
Israel’s arrogance testifies(K) against them;
    the Israelites, even Ephraim, stumble(L) in their sin;
    Judah also stumbles with them.(M)
When they go with their flocks and herds
    to seek the Lord,(N)
they will not find him;
    he has withdrawn(O) himself from them.
They are unfaithful(P) to the Lord;
    they give birth to illegitimate(Q) children.
When they celebrate their New Moon feasts,(R)
    he will devour[a](S) their fields.

“Sound the trumpet(T) in Gibeah,(U)
    the horn in Ramah.(V)
Raise the battle cry in Beth Aven[b];(W)
    lead on, Benjamin.
Ephraim will be laid waste(X)
    on the day of reckoning.(Y)
Among the tribes of Israel
    I proclaim what is certain.(Z)
10 Judah’s leaders are like those
    who move boundary stones.(AA)
I will pour out my wrath(AB) on them
    like a flood of water.
11 Ephraim is oppressed,
    trampled in judgment,
    intent on pursuing idols.[c](AC)
12 I am like a moth(AD) to Ephraim,
    like rot(AE) to the people of Judah.

13 “When Ephraim(AF) saw his sickness,
    and Judah his sores,
then Ephraim turned to Assyria,(AG)
    and sent to the great king for help.(AH)
But he is not able to cure(AI) you,
    not able to heal your sores.(AJ)
14 For I will be like a lion(AK) to Ephraim,
    like a great lion to Judah.
I will tear them to pieces(AL) and go away;
    I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them.(AM)
15 Then I will return to my lair(AN)
    until they have borne their guilt(AO)
    and seek my face(AP)
in their misery(AQ)
    they will earnestly seek me.(AR)

Yahweh Withdraws from Israel

Hear this, O priests!
Give heed, O house of Israel!
Give ear, O house of the king!
For the judgment is for you,
For you have been a (A)snare at Mizpah
And a net spread out on Tabor.
And the (B)revolters have (C)dug deep into slaughtering,
But I will chastise all of them.
I (D)know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from Me;
For now, O Ephraim, you have played the harlot;
Israel has defiled itself.
Their deeds will not allow them
To return to their God.
For a (E)spirit of harlotry is within them,
And they (F)do not know Yahweh.
Moreover, the (G)pride of Israel answers against him,
And Israel and Ephraim stumble in their iniquity;
(H)Judah also has stumbled with them.
They will (I)go with their flocks and herds
To seek Yahweh, but they will (J)not find Him;
He has (K)withdrawn from them.
They have (L)dealt treacherously against Yahweh,
For they have borne (M)children of strangers.
Now the (N)new moon will devour them with their portions.

(O)Blow the horn in (P)Gibeah,
The trumpet in Ramah.
Make a loud shout at Beth-aven:
(Q)Behind you, Benjamin!”
Ephraim will become a (R)desolation in the (S)day of reproof;
Among the tribes of Israel I (T)will make known what is true.
10 The princes of Judah have become like those who (U)move a boundary;
On them I will (V)pour out My wrath (W)like water.
11 Ephraim is (X)oppressed, crushed in judgment,
(Y)Because he was determined to [a]walk after man’s command.
12 Therefore I am like a (Z)moth to Ephraim
And like rottenness to the house of Judah.
13 Then Ephraim saw his sickness,
And Judah his sore,
So Ephraim went to (AA)Assyria
And sent to [b](AB)King Jareb.
But he is (AC)unable to heal you
Or to cure you of your sore.
14 For I will be (AD)like a lion to Ephraim
And like a young lion to the house of Judah.
(AE)I, even I, will tear to pieces and go away;
I will carry away, and there will be (AF)none to deliver.
15 I will go away and return to My place
Until they [c](AG)acknowledge their guilt and seek My face;
In their affliction they will (AH)seek Me earnestly.
