Hosi 9

1 Oe Isarelnaw, Jentelnaw patetlah konawm hoi lamtu awh hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na Cathut na pahnawt awh teh, alouke cathut hoi na kâyo awh toe. Cangkatinnae pueng dawk kâyonae phu hah na ngai awh toe.

Rejoice not, O Israel, unto exultation, like the peoples, for thou hast gone astray from thy God, thou hast loved a harlot's hire upon every corn-floor.

2 Cangkatinnae hoi misur paw katinnae ni na kawk mahoeh. Misurtui a katha e hai ngaihawi awh e patetlah tâcawt mahoeh.

The threshing-floor and the wine-press shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail her.

3 Ephraim teh Cathut e talai dawk khosak awh mahoeh. Izip ram lah bout a ban awh vaiteh, Assiria ram vah kathounghoehe rawca a ca awh han.

They shall not dwell in the LORD'S land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.

4 Misurtui awi thuengnae hah Cathut koe na sak awh hoeh. Thueng e naw hai a lungyouk mahoeh. Hote Sathei moi teh, khuika laihoi ro kathaknaw e rawca patetlah ao. Ka cat e tamipueng a khin awh han. Ahnimanaw e rawca hah amamouh roeroe ni cat awh naseh. Cathut e im dawk hrueng awh han naseh.

They shall not pour out 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 shall be for their appetite, it shall not come into the house of the LORD.

5 Bawipa e pawi hnin hoi, Bawipa koe pasoungnae hnin dawkvah, bangtelamaw na sak awh han toung.

What will ye do in the day of the appointed season, and in the day of the feast of the LORD?

6 Rawknae dawk hoi ka hlout awh nakunghai, Izip ram pâkhueng awh vaiteh, Memphis khocanaw ni a pakawp awh han. Ngun hoi a pathoup awh e imnaw hah pâkhing tangdun a phunphun ni rup a yam sin han.

For, lo, they are gone away from destruction, yet Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them; their precious treasures of silver, nettles shall possess them, thorns shall be in their tents.

7 Lawkceng nahane hnin a pha toe. Moipathungnae hnin a pha toe. Isarelnaw ni a panue awh han. Profet teh a pathu awh toe. Muitha tami hai a pathu toe. Na yonnae apap e patetlah puenghoi raphoenae na khang han.

The days of visitation are come, the days of recompense are come, Israel shall know it. The prophet is a fool, the man of the spirit is mad! For the multitude of thine iniquity, the enmity is great.

8 Ephraim ramvengnaw teh Cathut koe ao awh. Hatei, profet teh, a tawksak e pueng hah karap lah ao. A Cathut e im dawk patenghai kâhmuhmanae ka sak e lah ao.

Ephraim is a watchman with my God; as for the prophet, a fowler's snare is in all his ways, and enmity in the house of his God.

9 Gibeah senae patetlah puenghoi a rawk awh toe. A yonae hah a pâkuem pouh teh, a yonae dawk lawk a ceng han.

They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah; He will remember their iniquity, He will punish their sins.

10 Isarel teh kahrawngum e misur paw patetlah ka hmu teh, na mintoenaw hah thaibunglung a paw hmaloe kahmin e patetlah ka hmu. Ahnimouh teh Baalpeor koe amahmawk a cei awh teh, kayanae dawk a tak a kâhmoun awh teh, a doun awh e patetlah panuettho e hno hah a sak awh.

I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness, I saw your fathers as the first-ripe in the fig-tree at her first season; but so soon as they came to Baal-peor, they separated themselves unto the shameful thing, and became detestable like that which they loved.

11 Ephraim bawilennae teh tava patetlah a kamleng han. Ca khenae, camo vawnnae, pacipnae awm mahoeh.

As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird; there shall be no birth, and none with child, and no conception.

12 A canaw hah a kawk awh eiteh, buet touh boehai hlout laipalah ka lawp han. Ahnimanaw hah Kai ni ka hnoun toteh lungmathoe hanlah ao tangngak.

Yea, though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, that there be not a man left; yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!

13 Ephraim teh Taire kho patetlah karoum e boiboe lah ao eiteh, a canu capanaw hah tami kathetnaw koe a thak awh han.

Ephraim, like as I have seen Tyre, is planted in a pleasant place; but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the slayer.

14 Oe Cathut, na poe awh haw. Bangtelamaw na poe awh han. Camo ka vawn hoe e sanutui ka tâcawt hoeh e sanu na poe a haw.

Give them, O LORD, whatsoever Thou wilt give; give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.

15 Gilgal khovah, a sak awh e yon ao teh, hote hmuen koe ahnimouh hah kai ni ka panuet. Ahnimae yonnae kecu dawk ka im dawk hoi ka pâlei han. Ahnimouh hah bout ka lungpataw mahoeh. Ahnimae bawinaw pueng teh taran lah ka thaw e seng doeh.

All their wickedness is in Gilgal, for there I hated them; because of the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of My house; I will love them no more, all their princes are rebellious.

16 Ephraim teh ahri ni a ca dawkvah, a tangpha a ke teh, a paw paw thai hoeh. Capa a khe awh ei, a pahren awh e capanaw hah ka thei pouh awh han.

Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit; yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay the beloved fruit of their womb.

17 Kai Cathut e lawk hah a ngâi awh hoeh dawkvah, ka hnoun vaiteh, miphunlouknaw koe parang a kâva awh han.

My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto Him; and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
