Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as other people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor.
No te alegres como los otros pueblos, Israel, has sido infiel a Dios, buscando recompensas y beneficios de otras fuentes en lugar de mantenerte fiel a él.
Israel no debe celebrar porque ha abandonado a Dios por otros dioses y beneficios mundanos.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Hosea was a prophet to the Northern Kingdom of Israel during the 8th century BC, a time of relative economic prosperity fueled by agriculture and trade, but also marked by widespread idolatry and alliances with foreign nations that led to spiritual unfaithfulness. In this verse, God uses Hosea to rebuke Israel for celebrating their material gains as if they were like pagan societies, pointing out that their pursuit of rewards, such as bountiful harvests, had become intertwined with worshiping false gods. The metaphor of spiritual adultery highlights Israel's betrayal of their covenant with God, drawing from the cultural context of ancient Near Eastern fertility cults.
