Hosia 10
1 Isala: ili fi dunu da waini efe amo da waini fage bagohame legei, amo defele ba: i. Ilia da baligili bagade gaguiwane hamobeba: le, bu oloda bagohame gagui. Ilia soge da ha: i manu bagade heda: beba: le, ilia da sema igi ganumu amo baligili nina: hamoi dagoi.
“Israel was [like a large] healthy/luxuriant vine [MET] that produced [a lot of] grapes. But as the people became richer, they made more altars [at which to worship idols]. As the people prospered, they [built and] decorated sacred pillars [that they worshiped].
2 Be dunu amo da ilia dogo ganodini ogogosu hou fawane hamonana, amo da wali ilia wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, se bagade nabimu. Gode da ilia oloda gadelale salimu amola ilia sema igi ganumu amo wadela: lesimu.
They are deceitful; [so] now they are guilty and must be punished. [I], Yahweh, will tear down their altars and smash those pillars.
3 Amo dunu da wali hedolowane amane sia: mu, “Ninia da wali hina bagade hame gala. Bai ninia da Hina Godema hame beda: i. Be hina bagade dunu amola da nini fidimu hamedei ba: mu.
Then they will say, ‘It is because we did not revere Yahweh that we no [longer] have a king. But [even if we had] a king, he certainly could not [RHQ] do anything to help us.’
4 Ilia da udigili sia: daha. Amola ilia ogogole sia: ilegesa amola udigili gousa: su hamosa. Dunu ilia da osobo gidinasuga dogosea, bogosu gisi da hedolo heda: mu. Amo defele, moloidafa hou da sinidigili, moloi hame hou agoai ba: sa.
They falsely promise [that they will do many things]; they solemnly promise and make agreements, but they do not do what they promise. So people accuse and sue [each other in the courts]; they are like [SIM] poisonous weeds [that grow] in a plowed field.
5 Dunu amo da Samelia moilai bai bagadegawi esalebe da beda: mu. Ilia da Bedele gouliga hamoi bulamagau gawali fisi dagoiba: le, heawini dimu. Ili amola gobele salasu dunu (ili da amo gouliga hamoi bulamagau ea hawa: hamosa) da heawini dimu. Asilia dunu da ea gouli gadofo houga: sea, ilia da a: iya gusa: mu.
The people who live in Samaria [city] are worried about [what may happen to the idol that resembles] a calf [that they set up] at Beth-Aven [town]. The people in Samaria will mourn, and the priests there will cry about it [if it is damaged or destroyed]. [Previously] they shouted joyfully about its being very great; but now it will not be great any more.
6 Asilia dunu da amo ‘gode’ loboga hamoi ilia hina bagade amoma nodoma: ne, Asilia sogega gaguli masunu. Amola Isala: ili da ga fi ilia sia: amo fa: no bobogebeba: le, gogosiasu ba: mu.
It will be taken to Assyria to be a gift for the great King [of Assyria]. [So the people of] Israel will be disgraced, and they will be ashamed because [they trusted in] that idol.
7 Isala: ili hina bagade da ifa da: fe hanoga mini ahoabe agoai, gaguli asi dagoi ba: mu.
The King of Samaria [and the other people in Samaria] will be gone; they will be like [SIM] a twig [that floats away] on the surface of the water [and disappears].
8 A: ifene moilai bai bagade agolo da: iya sema sogebi (amogawi Isala: ili dunu da loboga hamoi ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadolalebe) da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Wadela: i gagalobo amola aya: gaga: nomei da ilia oloda dedebomu. Isala: ili dunu da goumi alelaloi amoga amane wele sia: mu, “Nini wamolegema!” amola agolo alelaloi amoga, “Nini dedeboma!” amane wele sia: mu.
The altars on the tops of hills [where the people worshiped idols] will be destroyed; those have been the places where the people of Israel sinned greatly. Thorns and weeds will grow and cover those altars. Then the people will plead to the mountains and hills, ‘Fall [down and] cover us [to protect us from God punishing us]!’
9 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili dunu da Gibia moilai bai bagadega muni wadela: le hamosu, mae yolele wadela: le hamonana wali doaga: i. Amaiba: le, Gibia moilai bai bagadega ilia da gegesu ba: mu.
[You people of] Israel, [ever since your ancestors did evil things] at Gibeah, you have continued to sin. [When the people at] [PRS] Gibeah [did evil things], the result was a war [in which thousands of people died].
10 Na da amo wadela: le hamosu fi ilima doagala: le, ilima se imunu. Fifi asi gala ilia da gilisili Isala: ili fi ilima gegemu, amola Isala: ili dunu ilia wadela: i bagohame hamoiba: le, se iasu ba: mu.
[So now], when I want to, I will punish the Israeli people. Because of the many sins that they have committed, [the armies of other] nations will gather to attack them, and they will cause the Israeli people to become their slaves.
11 Isala: ili da musa: , waha debe bulamagau aseme amo noga: le olele amola gala: ine dabimusa: momagele amola hamomusa: esalebe agoane ba: i. Be na da fedege agoane ea gonomagi da: iya gasa bagade hawa: hamosu hamoma: ne, youge legemu dawa: i galu. Na da Yuda amo osobo gidinasu hiougima: ne hamoi amola Isala: ili da osobo gagaoudama: ne gisi hiougima: ne hamoi.
Israel is [like] [MET] a well-trained (heifer/young cow) that likes to thresh [grain]. [So now you will become slaves]. [It will be as though] I will put a yoke on your neck, and you will be forced to work hard for your enemies in their fields. [You people of] Israel and Judah [will be forced to go to Assyria]; there you [DOU] will pull plows to break up the ground [for planting seeds].
12 Na da amane sia: i, ‘Dilia noga: le fima: ne, gaheabolo osobo gidinama. Moloidafa hou bugima. Amasea, dilia da Nama asigiwane esalea, dilia da hahawane hou gamisu agoane lamu. Na, dilia Hina Gode, Nama sinidigimu eso da doaga: i dagoi. Amasea, Na da dilima masea, hahawane olofosu dilima sogadigimu.
[You plow your fields and plant your seeds] and harvest [your crops] [MET], [but what you need to do is] to act righteously and to faithfully love [me]; you need to repent [MET], because it is time to try to know [me], Yahweh; and if you do that, I will pour out [MET] many blessings on you.
13 Be dilia da amo mae dawa: le, wadela: i hou bugili, amola amo ea gamisu fai. Dilia da fedege agoane, ogogosu ea fage amo mai dagoi. Dilia da dilia gegesu ‘sa: liode’ amola dadi gagui dunu bagohame, amo dilia noga: le gaga: mu dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le,
You [plant seeds and harvest the crops and eat them]; [but what I consider that you have really done is] that you have planted wicked things and harvested evil things and eaten [MET] the results [IDM] of the lies [that you have told]. [Instead of trusting in me, ] you have (depended on/trusted in) your own power and in your many soldiers.
14 gegesu da dilia fi dunuma doaga: mu amola dilia gagili sali moilai bai bagade huluane da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Eso afaega, hina bagade Sia: lama: ne da gegene, Bede Abele moilai wadela: lesi. Amola emelali amola ilia manolali da medole dadalega: le sali dagoi ba: i. Dilima misunu hou da amo hou agoane ba: mu.
As a result, you will [soon] hear the roar of battle, and all your cities that have walls around them will be destroyed, like [SIM] Shalman’s [army] destroyed Beth-Arbel [city] in a battle, and the women [in that city] and their children were bashed to death.
15 Dilia Bedele dunu! Amo hou da dilima doaga: mu. Bai dilia da baligiliwane wadela: le hamoi dagoi. Gegesu da musia, Isala: ili hina bagade da bogomu.”
[You people of] [APO] Bethel [city], that is what will happen to you, because you are very wicked. And when the sun rises [on that day], the King of Israel will be killed [in the battle].”
