King James Version
AFR DVK
1
Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment [is] toward you, because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.
Hoor dit, o julle priesters; en luister, julle huis van Israel; en gee oor, o huis van die koning; want oordeel is tot julle, omdat julle ‚'n strik by Mispa was, en ‚'n net uitgesprei op Tabor.
2
And the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I [have been] a rebuker of them all.
En die afvalliges is diep in slagting, alhoewel ek ‚'n bestraffer van hulle almal was.
3
I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, thou committest whoredom, [and] Israel is defiled.
Ek ken Efraim, en Israel is nie van My verborge nie: want nou, o Efraim, speel jy die hoer, en Israel is verontreinig.
4
They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for the spirit of whoredoms [is] in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD.
Hulle sal nie hulle doenings toelaat om tot hulle God terug te keer nie: want die gees van hoererye is in die midde van hulle, en hulle het die HERE nie geken nie.
5
And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall with them.
En die trotsheid van Israel getuig tot sy aangesig: daarom sal Israel en Efraim in hulle ongeregtigheid val; Juda sal ook saam met hulle val.
6
They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find [him]; he hath withdrawn himself from them.
Hulle sal gaan met hulle kuddes en met hulle troppe om die HERE te soek; maar hulle sal Hom nie vind nie; Hy het Hom van hulle onttrek.
7
They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions.
Hulle het troueloos gehandel teen die HERE: want hulle het vreemde kinders verwek: nou sal ‚'n maand hulle en hulle erfenisse verteer.
8
Blow ye the cornet in Gibeah, [and] the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud [at] Bethaven, after thee, O Benjamin.
Blaas julle die kornet in Gibea, en die trompet in Rama: roep hard in Bet-Awen, agter jou, o Benjamin.
9
Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.
Efraim sal verwoes word in die dag van die bestraffing: onder die stamme van Israel het ek bekend gemaak wat sekerlik sal wees.
10
The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound: [therefore] I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.
Die vorstes van Juda was soos hulle wat die grens verwyder: daarom sal ek my toorn soos water op hulle uitstort.
11
Ephraim [is] oppressed [and] broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment.
Efraim is verdruk en verbrysel in oordeel, omdat hy willig agter die gebod aangegaan het.
12
Therefore [will] I [be] unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.
Daarom sal ek vir Efraim soos ‚'n mot wees, en vir die huis van Juda soos verrotting.
13
When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah [saw] his wound, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you, nor cure you of your wound.
Toe Efraim sy siekte, en Juda sy wond gesien het, toe het Efraim na die Assiriër gegaan, en die koning Jareb gestuur: tog kon hy julle nie genees nie, en ook nie julle wond genees nie.
14
For I [will be] unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, [even] I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue [him].
Want ek sal vir Efraim soos ‚'n leeu wees, en soos ‚'n jong leeu vir die huis van Juda: ek, selfs ek, sal verskeur en weggaan; ek sal wegneem, en niemand sal red nie.
15
I will go [and] return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.
Ek sal gaan en terugkeer na my plek, totdat hulle hulle skuld erken, en my aangesig soek: in hulle benoudheid sal hulle My vroeg soek.
