Hosea 7
1 When I would heal Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim is uncovered, and the wickedness of Samaria. For they commit falsehood, and the thief enters in, and the troop of robbers ravages outside.
nígbà tí èmi ìbá mú Israẹli láradá. Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Efraimu ń farahàn ìwà búburú Samaria sì ń hàn síta. Wọ́n ń ṣe ẹ̀tàn, àwọn olè ń fọ́ ilé; àwọn ọlọ́ṣà ń jalè ní òpópónà;
2 And they do not consider in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness. Now their own doings have surrounded them; they are before my face.
ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò mọ̀ pé mo rántí gbogbo ìwà búburú wọn. Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn gbé wọn mì pátápátá; wọ́n wà níwájú mi nígbà gbogbo.
3 They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the rulers with their lies.
“Wọ́n ń mú inú ọba dùn pẹ̀lú ìwà búburú wọn, àti inú ọmọ-aládé dùn pẹ̀lú irọ́ wọn.
4 They are all adulterers. They are as an oven heated by the baker. He ceases to stir the fire, from the kneading of the dough, until it is leavened.
Alágbèrè ni gbogbo wọn wọ́n gbóná bí ààrò àkàrà tí a dáwọ́ kíkoná dúró, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí o ti pò ìyẹ̀fun tán, títí ìgbà tí yóò wú.
5 On the day of our king the rulers made themselves sick with the heat of wine. He stretched out his hand with scoffers.
Ní ọjọ́ àjọ̀dún ọba wa wáìnì mú ara ọmọ-aládé gbóná ó sì darapọ̀ mọ́ àwọn oníyẹ̀yẹ́.
6 For they have made their heart ready like an oven, while they lie in wait. Their baker sleeps all the night. In the morning it burns as a flaming fire.
Ọkàn wọn ń gbóná bí i ààrò wọ́n sì tọ̀ ọ́ lọ pẹ̀lú rìkíṣí, ìbínú wọn pa lọ́lọ́ ní gbogbo òru ó sì bú jáde bí ọ̀wọ́-iná ní òwúrọ̀.
7 They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges. All their kings are fallen. There is none among those who call to me.
Gbogbo wọn gbóná bí ààrò wọ́n pa gbogbo olórí wọn run, gbogbo ọba wọn si ṣubú kò sì ṣí ẹnìkan nínú wọn tí ó ké pè mí.
8 Ephraim, he mixes himself among the peoples. Ephraim is a cake not turned.
“Efraimu ti darapọ̀ mọ́ àwọn ènìyàn náà; Efraimu jẹ́ àkàrà tí a kò yípadà.
9 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he does not know. Yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, and he does not know.
Àwọn àlejò ti jẹ agbára rẹ̀ run ṣùgbọ́n kò sì mọ̀. Ewú ti wà ní orí rẹ̀ káàkiri bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò kíyèsi i.
10 And the pride of Israel testifies to his face. Yet they have not returned to Jehovah their God, nor sought him for all this.
Ìgbéraga Israẹli ń jẹ́rìí sí i ṣùgbọ́n pẹ̀lú gbogbo èyí kò padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa Ọlọ́run, tàbí kí ó wá a.
11 And Ephraim is like a silly dove, without understanding. They call to Egypt. They go to Assyria.
“Efraimu dàbí àdàbà tó rọrùn láti tànjẹ àti aláìgbọ́n tó wá ń pé Ejibiti nísinsin yìí tó sì tún ń padà lọ si Asiria.
12 When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them. I will bring them down as the birds of the heavens. I will chastise them, as their congregation has heard.
Nígbà tí wọ́n bá lọ, èmi ó ta àwọ̀n mi sórí wọn, Èmi ó fà wọ́n lulẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run. Nígbà tí mo bá gbọ́ pé wọ́n rìn pọ̀, Èmi ó nà wọ́n fún iṣẹ́ búburú ọwọ́ wọn.
13 Woe to them! For they have wandered from me. Destruction to them! For they have trespassed against me. Though I would redeem them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
Ègbé ní fún wọn, nítorí pé wọ́n ti yà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi! Ìparun wà lórí wọn, nítorí pé wọ́n ti ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí mi! Èmi fẹ́ láti rà wọ́n padà. Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ń parọ́ mọ́ mi.
14 And they have not cried to me with their heart, but they howl upon their beds. They assemble themselves for grain and new wine. They rebel against me.
Wọn kò kégbe pè mí láti ọkàn wọn, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ń pohùnréré ẹkún lórí ibùsùn wọn. Wọ́n kó ara wọn jọ, nítorí ọkà àti wáìnì ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n yípadà kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ mi.
15 Though I have taught and strengthened their arms, yet they devise mischief against me.
Mo kọ́ wọn, mo sì fún wọn ní agbára, síbẹ̀ wọ́n tún ń dìtẹ̀ mọ́ mi.
16 They return, but not to him on high. They are like a deceitful bow. Their rulers shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue. This shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
Wọn kò padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ Ọ̀gá-ògo; wọ́n dàbí ọfà tí ó ti bàjẹ́. Àwọn aṣíwájú wọn yóò ti ipa idà ṣubú nítorí ìrunú ahọ́n wọn. Torí èyí, wọn ó fi wọ́n ṣe ẹlẹ́yà ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
