And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face.

Verse 2 is found in chapter 7 of Hosea. When God wants to heal Israel, he discovers deep corruption. The leaders participate in deception and the inhabitants approach evil as though waiting for an opportunity to act. The oven becomes a recurring metaphor: disordered passion remains burning and progressively consumes the nation’s political and moral life.

dennoch wollen sie nicht merken, daß ich alle ihre Bosheit merke. Ich sehe aber ihr Wesen wohl, das sie allenthalben treiben.
Y no dicen en su corazón que tengo en la memoria toda su maldad: ahora los rodearán sus obras; delante de mí están.
No consideran en su corazón que recuerdo toda su maldad. Ahora sus obras los rodean; están ante mi rostro.
Ils ne se disent pas dans leur coeur Que je me souviens de toute leur méchanceté; Maintenant leurs oeuvres les entourent, Elles sont devant ma face.
E non han detto nel cuor loro, che io serbo la memoria di tutta la lor malvagità; ora li intorniano i lor fatti; quelli sono nel mio cospetto.
E não dizem no seu coração que eu me lembro de toda a sua maldade; agora, pois, os cercam as suas obras; diante da minha face estão.
他們以為我不在意他們一切的惡行; 現在,他們所做的在我面前纏繞他們。
