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.
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.
2 Cangtilhmuen neh va-am loh amih te luem puei pawt vetih a khuiah misur thai loh a vaitah ni.
The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail in 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 shall not dwell in the Lord’s land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean things 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 shall not offer wine offerings to the Lord, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of the Lord.
5 Tingtunnah hnin neh BOEIPA kah khotue hnin ah balae na saii uh eh?
What will ye do in the solemn day, 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, lo, they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant places for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns shall be in their tabernacles.
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 are come, the days of recompence are come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of thine iniquity, and the great hatred.
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.
The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: but the prophet is a snare of a fowler in all his ways, and hatred 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: therefore he will remember their iniquity, he will visit 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 firstripe in the fig tree at her first time: but they went to Baal-peor, and separated themselves unto that shame; and their abominations were according as 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 shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the 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 will I bereave them, that there shall not be a man left: yea, 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.
Ephraim, as I saw Tyrus, is planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring forth 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, O Lord: what wilt thou 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: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of mine house, I will love them no more: all their princes are revolters.
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 smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit 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 hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
