Comparison
Hosea 8
Douay-Rheims and Vulgata Clementina, verse by verse.
| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Let there be a trumpet in thy throat like an eagle upon the house of the Lord: because they have transgressed my covenant, and have violated my law. | In gutture tuo sit tuba quasi aquila super domum Domini, pro eo quod transgressi sunt foedus meum, et legem meam praevaricati sunt. |
| 2 | They shall call upon me: O my God, we, Israel, know thee. | Me invocabunt: Deus meus, cognovimus te Israël. |
| 3 | Israel hath cast off the thing that is good, the enemy shall pursue him. | Proiecit Israël bonum: inimicus persequetur eum. |
| 4 | They have reigned, but not by me: they have been princes, and I knew not: of their silver, and their gold they have made idols to themselves, that they might perish. | Ipsi regnaverunt, et non ex me; principes exstiterunt, et non cognovi: argentum suum et aurum suum fecerunt sibi idola, ut interirent. |
| 5 | Thy calf, O Samaria, is cast off, my wrath is kindled against them. How long will they be incapable of being cleansed? | Proiectus est vitulus tuus, Samaria; iratus est furor meus in eos. Usquequo non poterunt emundari? |
| 6 | For itself also is the invention of Israel: a workman made it, and it is no god: for the calf of Samaria shall be turned to spiders’ webs. | Quia ex Israël et ipse est: artifex fecit illum, et non est deus; quoniam in aranearum telas erit vitulus Samariae. |
| 7 | For they shall sow wind, and reap a whirlwind, there is no standing stalk in it, the bud shall yield no meal; and if it should yield, strangers shall eat it. | Quia ventum seminabunt, et turbinem metent: culmus stans non est in eo; germen non faciet farinam: quod etsi fecerit, alieni comedent eam. |
| 8 | Israel is swallowed up: now is he become among the nations like an unclean vessel. | Devoratus est Israël; nunc factus est in nationibus quasi vas immundum. |
| 9 | For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath given gifts to his lovers. | Quia ipsi ascenderunt ad Assur, onager solitarius sibi; Ephraim munera dederunt amatoribus. |
| 10 | But even though they shall have hired the nations, now will I gather them together: and they shall rest a while from the burden of the king, and the princes. | Sed et cum mercede conduxerint nationes, nunc congregabo eos, et quiescent paulisper ab onere regis et principum. |
| 11 | Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin: altars are become to him unto sin. | Quia multiplicavit Ephraim altaria ad peccandum; factae sunt ei arae in delictum. |
| 12 | I shall write to him my manifold laws, which have been accounted as foreign. | Scribam ei multiplices leges meas, quae velut alienae computatae sunt. |
| 13 | They shall offer victims, they shall sacrifice flesh, and shall eat it, and the Lord will not receive them: now will he remember their iniquity, and will visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt. | Hostias offerent, immolabunt carnes et comedent, et Dominus non suscipiet eas: nunc recordabitur iniquitatis eorum, et visitabit peccata eorum: ipsi in Aegyptum convertentur. |
| 14 | And Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and hath built temples: and Juda hath built many fenced cities: and I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the houses thereof. | Et oblitus est Israël factoris sui, et aedificavit delubra; et Iudas multiplicavit urbes munitas; et mittam ignem in civitates eius, et devorabit aedes illius. |
