Oseas 11
Bíblia Livre
1Quando Israel era menino, eu o amei, e do Egito chamei a meu filho.
2Quanto mais os chamavam, mais eles se afastavam de sua presença; sacrificavam aos Baalins, e ofereciam incenso às imagens de escultura.
3Eu, todavia, ensinei Efraim a andar, tomando-os pelos seus braços; porém não reconheceram que eu os curava.
4Com cordas humanas eu os puxei, com cordas de amor; e fui para eles como os que levantam o jugo de sobre suas cabeças, e lhes dei alimento.
5Israel não voltará à terra do Egito, mas o assírio será seu rei, porque recusam se converter.
6E a espada moverá sobre suas cidades; destruirá os ferrolhos de seus portões, e acabará com seus planos.
7Porém meu povo insiste em se desviar de mim; ainda que chamem ao Altíssimo, ninguém de fato o exalta.
8Como posso te abandonar, ó Efraim? Como posso te entregar, ó Israel? Como posso fazer de ti como Admá, ou te tornar como a Zeboim? Meu coração se comove dentro de mim, todas as minhas compaixões estão acesas.
9Não executarei o furor de minha ira, não voltarei a destruir Efraim; porque eu sou Deus, e não homem, o Santo no meio de ti; e não entrarei na cidade.
10Ao SENHOR seguirão; ele rugirá como leão; quando ele rugir os filhos virão tremendo desde o ocidente.
11Tremendo virão do Egito como um pássaro, e da terra da Assíria como uma pomba; e eu os farei habitar em suas casas, diz o SENHOR.
12Efraim me cercou com mentira, e a casa de Israel com engano; mas Judá ainda andava com Deus, e era é fiel ao Santo.
Reina-Valera 1909
1CUANDO Israel era muchacho, yo lo amé, y de Egipto llamé á mi hijo.
2Como los llamaban, así ellos se iban de su presencia; á los Baales sacrificaban, y á las esculturas ofrecían sahumerios.
3Yo con todo eso guiaba en pies al mismo Ephraim, tomándolos de sus brazos; y no conocieron que yo los cuidaba.
4Con cuerdas humanas los traje, con cuerdas de amor: y fuí para ellos como los que alzan el yugo de sobre sus mejillas, y llegué hacia él la comida.
5No tornará á tierra de Egipto, antes el mismo Assur será su rey, porque no se quisieron convertir.
6Y caerá espada sobre sus ciudades, y consumirá sus aldeas; consumirálas á causa de sus consejos.
7Entre tanto, está mi pueblo adherido á la rebelión contra mí: aunque lo llaman al Altísimo, ninguno absolutamente quiere ensalzarle.
8¿Cómo tengo de dejarte, oh Ehpraim? ¿he de entregarte yo, Israel? ¿cómo podré yo hacerte como Adma, ni ponerte como á Zeboim? Mi corazón se revuelve dentro de mí, inflámanse todas mis conmiseraciones.
9No ejecutaré el furor de mi ira, no volveré para destruir á Ephraim: porque Dios soy, y no hombre; el Santo en medio de ti: y no entraré en la ciudad.
10En pos de Jehová caminarán: él bramará como león: cual león rugirá él de cierto, y los hijos se moverán azorados del occidente.
11Como ave se moverán velozmente de Egipto, y de la tierra de Asiria como paloma; y pondrélos en sus casas, dice Jehová.

King James Version
1When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
2As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images.
3I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them.
4I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I laid meat unto them.
5He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return.
6And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels.
7And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt him.
8How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I deliver thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how shall I set thee as Zeboim? mine heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together.
9I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city.
10They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.
11They shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria: and I will place them in their houses, saith the LORD.
12Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints.
World English Bible
1“When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
2They called to them, so they went from them. They sacrificed to the Baals, and burned incense to engraved images.
3Yet I taught Ephraim to walk. I took them by their arms, but they didn’t know that I healed them.
4I drew them with cords of a man, with ties of love; and I was to them like those who lift up the yoke on their necks; and I bent down to him and I fed him.
5“They won’t return into the land of Egypt; but the Assyrian will be their king, because they refused to repent.
6The sword will fall on their cities, and will destroy the bars of their gates, and will put an end to their plans.
7My people are determined to turn from me. Though they call to the Most High, he certainly won’t exalt them.
8“How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within me, my compassion is aroused.
9I will not execute the fierceness of my anger. I will not return to destroy Ephraim, for I am God, and not man—the Holy One among you. I will not come in wrath.
10They will walk after the LORD, who will roar like a lion; for he will roar, and the children will come trembling from the west.
11They will come trembling like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will settle them in their houses,” says the LORD.
12Ephraim surrounds me with falsehood, and the house of Israel with deceit. Judah still strays from God, and is unfaithful to the Holy One.
