Hosea 13

Სწავლა

   

1 Kai Efraimas kalbėjo drebėdamas, jis iškilo Izraelyje, o kai nusikalto Baalu­mirė.

2 Dabar jie nusideda dar labiau: lieja sidabrinius atvaizdus, stabus pagal savo sugebėjimus. Tai yra amatininkų darbas. Jie ragina: “Žmonės, kurie aukoja, tebučiuoja veršius!”

3 Todėl jie bus kaip rytmečio migla, kaip rasa, kuri anksti pranyksta, kaip pelai, nupučiami nuo klojimo, arba dūmai iš kamino.

4 “Aš esu Viešpats, tavo Dievas nuo dienų Egipto krašte. Tu nepažinsi kito dievo, tik mane, nes be manęs nėra gelbėtojo.

5 Aš pažinau tave dykumoje, išdžiūvusioje žemėje.

6 Kai jie prasigyveno ir pasisotino, jų širdis išpuiko, jie pamiršo mane.

7 Aš būsiu jiems kaip liūtas, kaip šalia kelio tykojantis leopardas.

8 Aš juos užpulsiu kaip lokė, netekusi jauniklių, ir draskysiu jų krūtines. Ten surysiu juos kaip liūtas, sudraskysiu kaip laukiniai žvėrys.

9 Izraeli, tu sunaikinai save, nes tik manyje tavo pagalba.

10 Kur yra tavo karalius, kuris tave išgelbėtų? Kur tavo teisėjai, apie kuriuos sakei: ‘Duok man karalių ir kunigaikščių’?

11 Aš tau daviau karalių supykęs ir atėmiau jį užsirūstinęs.

12 Efraimo kaltė surišta, jo nuodėmė paslėpta.

13 Jis yra lyg neišmintingas sūnus­atėjus laikui gimti, jis neturėtų laukti.

14 Aš išpirksiu juos iš mirusiųjų buveinės galios, išgelbėsiu nuo mirties. Mirtie, Aš būsiu tavo galas, mirusiųjų buveine, Aš būsiu tavo sunaikinimas. Gailestis bus paslėptas nuo mano akių.

15 Nors jis klestės tarp savo brolių, pakils Viešpaties vėjas iš rytų, iš dykumos, išdžiovins versmes ir šaltinius, išplėš turtus ir visus brangius indus.

16 Samarija kentės už tai, kad maištavo prieš savo Dievą. Jie žus nuo kardo, jos kūdikius sutraiškys, nėščias moteris perskros”.

Jacob or Israel (the man)

  

Jacob is told twice that his name will now be Israel. The first time is when he wrestles with an angel on his journey to meet Esau, and the angel tells him that his name will be changed. After he is reconciled with Esau, they go their separate ways. Jacob moves to Shechem and then on to Bethel, where he builds an altar to the Lord. The Lord appears to him there, renews the covenant He first made with Abraham and again tells him that his name will be Israel (Genesis 35). The story goes on to tell of Benjamin's birth and Rachel's death in bearing him, and then of Jacob's return to Isaac and Isaac's death and burial. But at that point the main thread of the story leaves Israel and turns to Joseph, and Israel is hardly mentioned until after Joseph has risen to power in Egypt, has revealed himself to his brothers and tells them to bring all of their father's household down to Egypt. There, before Israel dies, he blesses Joseph's sons, plus all his own sons. After his death he is returned to the land of Canaan for burial in Abraham's tomb. In the story of Jacob and Esau, Jacob represents truth, and Esau good. Jacob's stay in Padan-Aram, and the wealth he acquired there, represent learning the truths of scripture, just as we learn when we read the Ten Commandments or the Sermon on the Mount. The change of name from Jacob to Israel represents the realization that what we learn should not simply be knowledge, but should be the rules of our life, to be followed by action. This action is the good that Esau has represented in the story up to that time, but after the reconciliation between Jacob and Esau, Jacob as Israel now represents the truth and the good, together. It is interesting that even after his name change Jacob is rarely called Israel. Sometimes he is called one and sometimes the other, and sometimes he is called both Jacob and Israel in the same verse (Genesis 46:2, 5, & 8 also Psalm 14:7). This is because Jacob represents the external person and Israel the internal person, and even after the internal person comes into being, we spend much of our lives living on the external level.

Psalms 7

Სწავლა

   

1 Yahweh, my God, I take refuge in you. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,

2 lest they tear apart my soul like a lion, ripping it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.

3 Yahweh, my God, if I have done this, if there is iniquity in my hands,

4 if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me (yes, if I have delivered him who without cause was my adversary),

5 let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; yes, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. Selah.

6 Arise, Yahweh, in your anger. Lift up yourself against the rage of my adversaries. Awake for me. You have commanded judgment.

7 Let the congregation of the peoples surround you. Rule over them on high.

8 Yahweh administers judgment to the peoples. Judge me, Yahweh, according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.

9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous; their minds and hearts are searched by the righteous God.

10 My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.

11 God is a righteous judge, yes, a God who has indignation every day.

12 If a man doesn't relent, he will sharpen his sword; he has bent and strung his bow.

13 He has also prepared for himself the instruments of death. He makes ready his flaming arrows.

14 Behold, he travails with iniquity. Yes, he has conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.

15 He has dug a hole, and has fallen into the pit which he made.

16 The trouble he causes shall return to his own head. His violence shall come down on the crown of his own head.

17 I will give thanks to Yahweh according to his righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of Yahweh Most High. For the Chief Musician; on an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by David.
