Hosea 9
1 Israel te na Pathen taeng lamloh na cukhalh uh cangpai cangtilhmuen tom ah a paang na lungnah uh dongah ni pilnam bangla omngaihnah la na ko a hoe uh pawh.
Do not rejoice, Israel, to jubilation like the nations; for you were unfaithful to your God. You love the wages of a prostitute at every grain threshing floor.
2 Cangtilhmuen neh va-am loh amih te luem puei pawt vetih a khuiah misur thai loh a vaitah ni.
The threshing floor and the winepress won't feed them, and the new wine will fail her.
3 BOEIPA kah khohmuen ah kho a sak uh pawt vaengah tah Ephraim te Egypt la mael vetih Assyria ah rhalawt hno a caak uh ni.
They won't dwell in the LORD's land; but Ephraim will return to Egypt, and they will eat unclean food in Assyria.
4 BOEIPA taengah misurtui bueih uh pawt vetih a taengah a lungtui uh mahpawh. Amih kah hmueih te amamih taengah tamsa buh bangla om ni. A hinglu te BOEIPA im la a kun pawt dongah aka ca boeih khaw a buh neh poeih uh ni.
They won't pour out wine offerings to the LORD, neither will they be pleasing to him. Their sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat of it will be polluted; for their bread will be for their appetite. It will not come into the house of the LORD.
5 Tingtunnah hnin neh BOEIPA kah khotue hnin ah balae na saii uh eh?
What will you do in the day of solemn assembly, and in the day of the feast of the LORD?
6 rhoelrhanah lamloh cet uh mai cakhaw ne, amih te Egypt loh a coi vetih Memphis loh amah la a up ni. Amih kah cak te dohui loh a nulnah uh vetih amamih khaw a dap khuiah ni mutlo hling loh a huet eh.
For, look, they have gone away from destruction. Egypt will gather them up. Memphis will bury them. Nettles will possess their pleasant things of silver. Thorns will be in their tents.
7 Cawhnah hnin a pha coeng, sahnah hnin a pha coeng. Tonghma ang neh mueihla hlang kah a pavai Israel loh ming saeh. Namah thaesainah loh cungkuem tih na muennah khaw yet.
The days of visitation have come. The days of reckoning have come. Let Israel know. The prophet is a fool, and the man of the spirit is mad, because of the abundance of your sins, and because your hostility is great.
8 Ka Pathen neh Ephraim aka tawt tonghma khaw a longpuei boeih ah sayuep kah pael a om pah tih a Pathen im ah muennah om.
A prophet watches over Ephraim with my God. A fowler's snare is on all of his paths, and hostility in the house of his God.
9 Gibeah tue bangla muelh paci uh amih kah tholhnah a cawh pah vaengah amamih kathaesainah a poek bitni.
They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah. He will remember their iniquity. He will punish them for their sins.
10 Israel khaw khosoek kah misur bangla ka hmuh. Thaibu dongkah thaihloe a moe vaengkah bangla ka hmuh. Na pa rhoek khaw Baalpeor la a caeh uh dongah ni yahpohnah dongah a cue uh akhaw sarhingkoi te a lungnah bangla om uh.
I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness. I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the fig tree at its first season; but they came to Baal Peor, and consecrated themselves to the shameful thing, and became abominable like that which they loved.
11 Ephraim loh amih kah thangpomnah te cacun khui lamloh, bungko lamloh, rhumpum lamloh vaa bangla a ding puei ni.
As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird. There will be no birth, none with child, and no conception.
12 A ca rhoek te pantai uh mai bal cakhaw hlang te a pum la ka cakol sak ni. Amih taeng lamloh ka nong vaengah amih aih te anunae!
Though they bring up their children, yet I will bereave them, so that not a man shall be left. Indeed, woe also to them when I depart from them.
13 Ephraim te Tyre taengah tolkhoeng dongkah a phung bangla ka hmuh dae Ephraim he a ca rhoek aka ngawn pah taengah khuen ham om.
I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a pleasant place; but Ephraim will bring out his children to the murderer.
14 Aw BOEIPA amih te pae dae. Balae tih amih te cakol bung neh rhangsuk aka rhae te a paek khaw na paek eh?
Give them—LORD what will you give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
15 Amih kah boethae loh Gilgal ah khaw cungkuem coeng. Amih kah khoboe thaenah dongah ni amih te hnap ka thiinah. Amih te ka im lamloh ka haek vetih amih lungnah ham ka khoep mahpawh. A mangpa boeih khaw a thinthah uh.
"All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I hated them. Because of the wickedness of their deeds I will drive them out of my house. I will love them no more. All their rulers are rebels.
16 Ephraim te a ngawn tih a yung a koh dongah a thaih a cuen kolla om mahpawt nim? Amih bungko kah ngailaemnah te cun uh mai sitoe cakhaw ka duek sak ni.
Ephraim is struck. Their root has dried up. They will bear no fruit. Even though they bring forth, yet I will kill the beloved ones of their womb."
17 A ol te a hnatun uh pawt dongah amih te ka Pathen loh a hnawt vetih namtom taengah aka poeng la om uh ni.
My God will cast them away, because they did not listen to him; and they will be wanderers among the nations.
