Hosea 11:1-4, 8e-9
Thus says the LORD:
When Israel was a child I loved him,
out of Egypt I called my son.
The more I called them,
the farther they went from me,
Sacrificing to the Baals
and burning incense to idols.
Yet it was I who taught Ephraim to walk,
who took them in my arms;
I drew them with human cords,
with bands of love;
I fostered them like one
who raises an infant to his cheeks;
Yet, though I stooped to feed my child,
they did not know that I was their healer.
My heart is overwhelmed,
my pity is stirred.
I will not give vent to my blazing anger,
I will not destroy Ephraim again;
For I am God and not man,
the Holy One present among you;
I will not let the flames consume you.

11. Il-ħniena ta' Alla ma tonqos qatt
An Overwhelmed Heart (7/7/16)
[Hos:11:1] "Meta kien tfajjel Iżrael ħabbejtu,
u mill-Eġittu sejjaħt lil ibni.
[Hos:11:2] Imma aktar ma sejjaħtilhom,
aktar tbiegħdu minni;
offrew sagrifiċċji lil Bagħalim,
u baħħru quddiem l-idoli.
[Hos:11:3] Kont jien li 'l Efrajm għallimtu jimxi,
rfajthom fuq dirgħajja,
iżd'huma m'għarfux kemm kont ħadt ħsiebhom!
[Hos:11:4] Bi ħbula ta' bnedmin jien ġbidthom,
b'rabtiet ta' mħabba;
u kont għalihom bħal min jerfa' tarbija ma' ħaddejh,
u lejha mmil nitmagħha.
[Hos:11:8e] Daret għalija qalbi, tqanqlet bil-bosta ħnienti.
[Hos:11:8e] Daret għalija qalbi, tqanqlet bil-bosta ħnienti.
[Hos:11:9] Le, ma nħaddimx il-korla mħeġġa tiegħi;
le, ma nerġax inġib fix-xejn 'l Efrajm,
għax Alla jien, u mhux bniedem,
jien f'nofsok il-Qaddis;
jien ma niġix biex neqred.
