rotherham Hosea:4-6
rotherham@Hosea:4:1 @ Hear the word of Yahweh, ye sons of Israel, that, a controversy, hath Yahweh with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no faithfulness, nor lovingkindness, nor knowledge of God, in the land:
rotherham@Hosea:4:2 @ Cursing and lying, and killing and stealing, and committing adultery, have broken forth, and, blood-shedding, unto blood-shedding, doth extend.
rotherham@Hosea:4:3 @ For this cause, shall the land mourn, and everyone who dwelleth therein shall languish, with the wild beast of the field and with the bird of the heavens, moreover also, the fishes of the sea, shall be withdrawn.
rotherham@Hosea:4:4 @ Howbeit let, no man, contend, nor let him rebuke another, since, thy people, are as they who contend against a priest:
rotherham@Hosea:4:5 @ So shouldst thou stumble in the daytime, and even the prophet stumble with thee, in the night, and I should destroy thine own mother.
rotherham@Hosea:4:6 @ My people, are destroyed, for lack of knowledge, Because, thou, hast rejected knowledge, therefore will I reject thee from ministering as priest unto me, and, because thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I also, will forget thy children.
rotherham@Hosea:4:7 @ As they were magnified, so, they sinned against me, My gloryfor what was contemptible, did they exchange.
rotherham@Hosea:4:8 @ The sin of my people, they do eat, and. unto their iniquity, lift they up every man his desire.
rotherham@Hosea:4:9 @ So doth it come to belike people, like priest, therefore will I visit upon him his ways, and, his doings, will I bring back to him;
rotherham@Hosea:4:10 @ And they shall eat, and not be satisfied, they have encouraged unchastity, yet have not been making increase, for unto, Yahweh, have they left off giving heed:
rotherham@Hosea:4:11 @ Unchastity, and wine, and new wine, take away the heart.
rotherham@Hosea:4:12 @ My people, of their Wood, do ask, Let, their Staff, then tell them, for, the spirit of unchastity, hath led them astray, and they have unchastely departed from under their God.
rotherham@Hosea:4:13 @ On the headlands of the mountains, they sacrifice, and, on the hills, burn they incense, under oak and poplar and terebinth, because, pleasant, is the shade thereof: For this cause, do your daughters, become unchaste, and, your brides, commit adultery.
rotherham@Hosea:4:14 @ I do not bring punishment upon your daughters when they become unchaste, nor upon your brides, when they commit adultery, for, the men themselves, with unchaste women, do seclude themselves, and, with the common women of the shrine, do offer sacrifice, and, a people who will not discern, must be ruined.
rotherham@Hosea:4:15 @ Though unchaste art thou, O Israel, let not Judah, become guilty, neither let them enter Gilgal, nor go up to Beth-aven, and swear, By the life of Yahweh!
rotherham@Hosea:4:16 @ For, as a heifer that is stubborn, hath Israel, been stubborn, Now, can Yahweh, turn them out to pasture, like a young ram in a wide place?
rotherham@Hosea:4:17 @ Mated with idols, is Ephraim, let him alone.
rotherham@Hosea:4:18 @ Their drinking-bout, having passed, they became, unchaste, they loved wildly, a contempt, became her great men.
rotherham@Hosea:4:19 @ The wind hath bound her up in its wings, that they may be ashamed, because of their sacrifices.
rotherham@Hosea:5:1 @ Hear ye this O priests, and attend, O house of Israel, and ye, House of the King, give ear, for, to you, pertaineth the sentence, for, a snare, have ye been to Mizpah, and a net spread on Tabor.
rotherham@Hosea:5:2 @ And, a slaughter, have apostates deeply designed, though, I, was a rebuker to them all.
rotherham@Hosea:5:3 @ I, have known Ephraim, and, Israel, hath not been hidden from me, for, now, hast thou committed unchastity, O Ephraim, Israel, hath made himself impure.
rotherham@Hosea:5:4 @ Their doings, will not suffer, them to return unto their God, for, the spirit of unchastity, is within them, and, Yahweh, have they not known.
rotherham@Hosea:5:5 @ Therefore will the Excellency of Israel, answer, to his face, and, Israel and Ephraim, shall stumble in their iniquity, even Judah with them, hath stumbled.
rotherham@Hosea:5:6 @ With their flocks and with their herds, will they go to seek Yahweh, but shall not find him; he hath withdrawn himself from them.
rotherham@Hosea:5:7 @ With Yahweh, have they dealt treacherously, for, to alien children, have they given birth, now, a new moon, shall devour them, with their portions.
rotherham@Hosea:5:8 @ Blow ye a horn in Gibeah, a trumpet in Ramah, sound an alarm at Beth-aven, behind thee, O Benjamin!
rotherham@Hosea:5:9 @ Ephraim, shall become, a desolation, in the day of rebuke: Throughout the tribes of Israel, have I hide known what is sure.
rotherham@Hosea:5:10 @ The rulers of Judah have become as they who remove a land-mark. Upon them, will I pour out, like water, my wrath.
rotherham@Hosea:5:11 @ Oppressed, is Ephraim, crushed in judgment, because he hath, wilfully, walked after falsehood.
rotherham@Hosea:5:12 @ But, I, was like a moth, to Ephraim, and like rotten wood to the house of Judah.
rotherham@Hosea:5:13 @ When Ephraim, saw, his injury, and Judah his wound, then went Ephraim unto Assyria, and sent unto a hostile king, yet, he, cannot heal you, nor will the wound, remove from you.
rotherham@Hosea:5:14 @ For, I, will be as a lion unto Ephraim, and as a young lion to the house of Judah, I, I, will tear in pieces, and depart, I will carry off, and none be able to rescue.
rotherham@Hosea:5:15 @ I will depart, will return unto my place! till what time they acknowledge their guilt, and seek my face, In their trouble, will they make for me diligent search.
rotherham@Hosea:6:1 @ Come, and let us return unto Yahweh! for, he, hath torn, that he might heal us, smitten, that he might bind us up.
rotherham@Hosea:6:2 @ He will bring us to life, after two days, on the third day, will he raise us up, that we may live before him.
rotherham@Hosea:6:3 @ Then let us knowlet us press on to know Yahweh, Like the dawn, is his coming forth assured, that he may come like a down-pour upon us, like the harvest-rain,
rotherham@Hosea:6:4 @ What can I do unto thee, O Ephraim? What can I do unto thee, O Judah? for, your lovingkindness, is like a morning cloud, yea, like the dew, early departing!
rotherham@Hosea:6:5 @ For this cause, have I hewn them in pieces by the prophets, I have slain them by the sayings of my mouth, and, my justice, as a light goeth forth.
rotherham@Hosea:6:6 @ For, lovingkindness, I desired, and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God, more than ascending-offerings.
rotherham@Hosea:6:7 @ But, they, like Adam, have transgressed a covenant, There, have they dealt treacherously with me.
rotherham@Hosea:6:8 @ Gilead, is a city of workers of iniquity, tracked with blood.
rotherham@Hosea:6:9 @ And, like liers in wait for a man, in troops, is a band of priests, on the road, will they murder towards Shechem, because, a shameful deed, they have done.
rotherham@Hosea:6:10 @ In the house of Israel, have I seen a horrible thing, there, the unchastity of Ephraim, defiled is Israel.
rotherham@Hosea:6:11 @ Judah too! a harvest is appointed for thee, in that I will bring back the captivity of my people.
rotherham@Hosea:7:1 @ When I would have brought healing to Israel, then was disclosed the iniquity of Ephraim, and the wicked doings of Samaria, for they have wrought falsehood, when, a thief, would enter, a band roamed about, outside,
