New International Version
Repentance to Bring Blessing
14 [a]Return,(A) Israel, to the Lord your God.
Your sins(B) have been your downfall!(C)
2 Take words with you
and return to the Lord.
Say to him:
“Forgive(D) all our sins
and receive us graciously,(E)
that we may offer the fruit of our lips.[b](F)
3 Assyria cannot save us;(G)
we will not mount warhorses.(H)
We will never again say ‘Our gods’(I)
to what our own hands have made,(J)
for in you the fatherless(K) find compassion.”
4 “I will heal(L) their waywardness(M)
and love them freely,(N)
for my anger has turned away(O) from them.
5 I will be like the dew(P) to Israel;
he will blossom like a lily.(Q)
Like a cedar of Lebanon(R)
he will send down his roots;(S)
6 his young shoots will grow.
His splendor will be like an olive tree,(T)
his fragrance like a cedar of Lebanon.(U)
7 People will dwell again in his shade;(V)
they will flourish like the grain,
they will blossom(W) like the vine—
Israel’s fame will be like the wine(X) of Lebanon.(Y)
8 Ephraim, what more have I[c] to do with idols?(Z)
I will answer him and care for him.
I am like a flourishing juniper;(AA)
your fruitfulness comes from me.”

14 O israel, return unto the Lord thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.
2 Take with you words, and turn to the Lord: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.
3 Asshur shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, Ye are our gods: for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.
4 I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.
5 I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.
6 His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
7 They that dwell under his shadow shall return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon.
8 Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols? I have heard him, and observed him: I am like a green fir tree. From me is thy fruit found.
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.

14 Meglakol Samaria, mert daczolt az õ Istenével. Fegyver által hullanak el; csecsemõik földhöz veretnek, és terhes asszonyaik ketté vágatnak.
2 Térj vissza hát Izráel az Úrhoz, a te Istenedhez, mert elbuktál álnokságod miatt!
3 Vigyetek veletek beszédeket, és térjetek vissza az Úrhoz! Mondjátok néki: Végy el minden álnokságot! És fogadd el azt, a mi jó, és ajkaink tulkaival áldozunk [néked.
4 Assiria nem segít meg minket; lóra sem ülünk, és nem mondjuk többé kezeink csinálmányának: Istenünk! Mert nálad talál kegyelmet az árva.
5 Kigyógyítom õket hûtlenségökbõl; szeretem õket ingyen kegyelembõl, mert elfordult tõlök az én haragom.
6 Olyanná leszek Izráelnek, mint a harmat. Virágozni fog, mint a liliom, és gyökeret ver, mint a Libánon.
7 Kiterjednek az õ ágai, és olyan lesz az õ ékessége, mint az olajfáé, illata pedig, mint a Libánoné.
8 Visszatérnek az õ árnyékában lakók, és felelevenednek, mint a búzamag, és virágoznak, mint a szõlõtõ; híre olyan lesz, mint Libánon boráé.
9 Efraim [így szól:] Mi közöm nékem többé a bálványokhoz?! Én meghallgatom és figyelek reá. Olyan vagyok, mint a zöldelõ cziprusfa! Tõlem származik a te gyümölcsöd!
10 Kicsoda a bölcs, hogy értse ezeket? [Kicsoda] az értelmes, hogy eszébe vegye ezeket?! Bizony igazak az Úrnak útai, és az igazak járnak azokon, az istentelenek pedig elesnek rajtok.
