Hosea 10
1 Israel ne en mzabibu malandore; ne onyago olembene owuon. Ka olembene ne medore, nomedo gero kende mag misango; kendo ka pinye ne medo mewo, to nomedo loso kido milamo.
Israel is an unpruned vine, he bringeth forth fruit unto himself: according to the abundance of his fruit he hath multiplied altars; according to the goodness of his land they have made goodly statues.
2 Chunygi opongʼ gi miriambo kendo koro nyaka gitingʼ mana kum marom kodgi. Jehova Nyasaye nomuk kendegi mag misango kendo kitegi ma gilamo bende nokethi.
Their heart is divided; now shall they be found guilty: he will break down their altars, he will destroy their statues.
3 Eka giniwachi, “Waonge ruoth nikech watamore miyo Jehova Nyasaye luor. To kata kane wan gi ruoth, to dotimonwa angʼo?”
For now they will say, We have no king, for we feared not Jehovah; and a king, what can he do for us?
4 Githoro wacho weche manono ka gikwongʼore gi miriambo, kendo giloso winjruok ma ok nyal konyogi; emomiyo buche mag larruok medore mana ka buya malandore e puothe mosepur.
They speak [mere] words, swearing falsely in making a covenant; therefore shall judgment spring up as hemlock in the furrows of the fields.
5 Ji modak Samaria luoro osemako nikech nyaroya molos gi dhahabu mar Beth Aven. Joge noywage, kamano bende e kaka jodologe malamo nyiseche manono noywage, mago mosebedo gi mor kuom berne nikech osegole kuomgi kitere e twech.
The inhabitants of Samaria shall fear because of the calf of Beth-aven; for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the idolatrous priests thereof shall tremble for it, for its glory, because it is departed from it.
6 Enotingʼe kitere Asuria kaka mich ne ruoth maduongʼ. Efraim noma duongʼne to Israel nokuod wiye nikech nyisechene molos gi bao.
Yea, it shall be carried unto Assyria [as] a present for king Jareb: Ephraim shall be seized with shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel.
7 Samaria kod ruodhige nolew gi malo mana ka bad yien malewo gi malo ewi pi.
As for Samaria her king is cut off as chips upon the face of the waters.
8 Kuonde motingʼore malo mag anjawo nokethi, en emomiyo jo-Israel timo richo. Kuthe kod buya ema biro dongo maim kendegi mag misango. Eka giniwach ne gode madongo niya, “Umwauru!” Kendo ne gode matindo niya, “Rwombreuru kuomwa!”
And the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up upon their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us! and to the hills, Fall on us!
9 “Nyaka aa ndalo mar Gibea, isebedo ka itimo richo, yaye Israel, to kanyo ema isesike. Donge lweny notieko jotim richo man Gibea?
From the days of Gibeah hast thou sinned, O Israel: there they stood: the battle in Gibeah against the children of iniquity did not overtake them.
10 Ka ahero to abiro kumogi; ogendini nonywaknegi, maketgi e twech kuom richogi duto.
At my pleasure will I chastise them; and the peoples shall be assembled against them, when they are bound for their two iniquities.
11 Efraim en nyaroya mobo mohero dino cham; omiyo anatwe jok e ngʼute maberno. Anariemb Efraim, to Juda nyaka pur, kendo Jakobo biro baro lowo.
And Ephraim is a trained heifer, that loveth to tread out [the corn]; I have passed over upon her fair neck: I will make Ephraim to draw; Judah shall plough, Jacob shall break his clods.
12 Chwouru adiera ne un uwegi, kaa-uru olemo mar hera ma ok rum, kendo baruru lopu mapok opur, nimar en kinde mar manyo Jehova Nyasaye, nyaka chop ool tim makare kuomu.
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek Jehovah, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.
13 To nikech usechwoyo anjawo, usekayo timbe maricho, kendo usechamo olemb miriambo. Nikech usegeno kuom tekou uwegi kendo kuom jolwenju mangʼeny,
Ye have ploughed wickedness, reaped iniquity, eaten the fruit of lies; for thou didst confide in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men.
14 kuom mano koko mar lweny biro monjo jou, ma mi kuondeu mochiel motegno nomuki, mana kaka Shalman nomuko Beth Arbel e odiechieng lweny, kama mine kod nyithindgi nodhir mopodho.
And a tumult shall arise among thy peoples, and all thy fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Beth-arbel in the day of battle: the mother was dashed in pieces with the children.
15 Ma e kaka notimre ne un bende, yaye Bethel, nikech anjawo maru duongʼ. Ka odiechiengno ochopo, ruodh Israel notiek chuth.”
So shall Bethel do unto you because of the wickedness of your wickedness: at day-break shall the king of Israel utterly be cut off.
