Hosea 5:1-8
English Standard Version
Punishment Coming for Israel and Judah
5 (A)Hear this, O priests!
Pay attention, O house of Israel!
Give ear, O house of the king!
For the judgment is for you;
for (B)you have been a snare at Mizpah
and a net spread upon (C)Tabor.
2 And (D)the revolters (E)have gone deep into slaughter,
but (F)I will discipline all of them.
3 (G)I know Ephraim,
and Israel is not hidden from me;
for now, O Ephraim, you have played the whore;
Israel is defiled.
4 (H)Their deeds do not permit them
to return to their God.
For (I)the spirit of whoredom is within them,
and they know not the Lord.
5 (J)The pride of Israel testifies to his face;[a]
Israel and (K)Ephraim shall stumble in his guilt;
(L)Judah also shall stumble with them.
6 (M)With their flocks and herds they shall go
to seek the Lord,
(N)but they will not find him;
(O)he has withdrawn from them.
7 (P)They have dealt faithlessly with the Lord;
for they have borne alien children.
Now the new moon shall devour them with their fields.
8 (Q)Blow the horn in (R)Gibeah,
the trumpet in (S)Ramah.
Sound the alarm at (T)Beth-aven;
we follow you,[b] O Benjamin!
Hosea 5:1-8
New International Version
Judgment Against Israel
5 “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.
2 The rebels are knee-deep in slaughter.(D)
I will discipline all of them.(E)
3 I know all about Ephraim;
Israel is not hidden(F) from me.
Ephraim, you have now turned to prostitution;
Israel is corrupt.(G)
4 “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.
5 Israel’s arrogance testifies(K) against them;
the Israelites, even Ephraim, stumble(L) in their sin;
Judah also stumbles with them.(M)
6 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he has withdrawn(O) himself from them.
7 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.
Hosea 6:6-11
English Standard Version
6 For (A)I desire steadfast love[a] and not sacrifice,
(B)the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
7 But (C)like Adam they (D)transgressed the covenant;
(E)there they dealt faithlessly with me.
8 (F)Gilead is a city of evildoers,
(G)tracked with blood.
9 As robbers (H)lie in wait for a man,
so the priests band together;
they murder on the way to (I)Shechem;
they commit villainy.
10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing;
(J)Ephraim's whoredom is there; (K)Israel is defiled.
When (N)I restore the fortunes of my people,
Notas al pie
- Hosea 6:6 Septuagint mercy
Hosea 6:6-11
New International Version
6 For I desire mercy, not sacrifice,(A)
and acknowledgment(B) of God rather than burnt offerings.(C)
7 As at Adam,[a] they have broken the covenant;(D)
they were unfaithful(E) to me there.
8 Gilead is a city of evildoers,(F)
stained with footprints of blood.
9 As marauders lie in ambush for a victim,(G)
so do bands of priests;
they murder(H) on the road to Shechem,
carrying out their wicked schemes.(I)
10 I have seen a horrible(J) thing in Israel:
There Ephraim is given to prostitution,
Israel is defiled.(K)
11 “Also for you, Judah,
a harvest(L) is appointed.
“Whenever I would restore the fortunes(M) of my people,
Notas al pie
