Hosea 5
1 Hear this, O ye priests, and hearken, O house of Israel, and give ear, O house of the king; for unto you pertaineth the judgment; for ye have been a snare at Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.
“Winjuru ma, un jodolo! Chikuru itu, un jo-Israel! Winjuru, yaye jood ruoth! Kumni obironu: Usebedo obadho e Mizpa, gogo mopedhi ewi Tabor.
2 And the revolters are gone deep in making slaughter; but I am a rebuker of them all.
Joma ongʼanyo ni e tho malich. Abiro kumogi giduto.
3 I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me; for now, O Ephraim, thou hast played the harlot, Israel is defiled.
Angʼeyo gik moko duto kuom Efraim; onge gima opondona kuom jo-Israel. Efraim, un to usedoko kaka ochot; to jo-Israel timo timbe modwanyore.
4 Their doings will not suffer them to turn unto their God; for the spirit of whoredom is within them, and they know not Jehovah.
“Timbegi omonogi duogo ir Nyasachgi. Tim marach mar chode ni e chunygi; ok giyie kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
5 And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in their iniquity; Judah also shall stumble with them.
Sungruok mar jo-Israel nyiso rachgi; jo-Israel kaachiel gi Efraim podho e richogi; kendo jo-Juda bende podho kodgi.
6 They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek Jehovah; but they shall not find him: he hath withdrawn himself from them.
Ka gidhi gi kweth dhogi kaachiel gi chiachgi mondo gitim misengni ni Jehova Nyasaye, to ok giniyude nikech osewuok moa kuomgi.
7 They have dealt treacherously against Jehovah; for they have borne strange children: now shall the new moon devour them with their fields.
Gisebedo joma ok jo-adiera ni Jehova Nyasaye; ginywolo nyithindo ma kimirwa. Sewni ma gitimo ka dwe owuok biro tiekogi kaachiel gi puothegi.
8 Blow ye the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: sound an alarm at Beth-aven; behind thee, O Benjamin.
“Gouru turumbete e dala mar Gibea, gouru abu e dala mar Rama. Gouru nduru mar lweny e dala mar Beth Aven; yaye, jo-Benjamin teluru.
9 Ephraim shall become a desolation in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.
Efraim biro bet gunda ka chiengʼ makumogie ochopo. Alando gima nyaka timre e kind dhout Israel.
10 The princes of Judah are like them that remove the landmark: I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.
Jotend Juda chalo gi joma ochoro kite man e kiewo. Abiro olo mirimba kuomgi mana ka pi oula.
11 Ephraim is oppressed, he is crushed in judgment; because he was content to walk after [man’s] command.
Jo-Efraim ibiro toyo ka bura oloyogi, nikech giketo chunygi mar luwo nyiseche manono.
12 Therefore am I unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.
Achalo gi oguyo ne jo-Efraim, achalo gima otop ne jo-Juda.
13 When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah [saw] his wound, then went Ephraim to Assyria, and sent to king Jareb: but he is not able to heal you, neither will he cure you of your wound.
“Ka Efraim noneno tuone, kendo Juda oneno adhondene, eka Efraim nodwaro kony kuom Asuria, kendo gikwayo kony ir ruoth maduongʼ. To ok onyal thiedhou, ok onyal thiedho adhondeu.
14 For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will carry off, and there shall be none to deliver.
Abiro bedo ka sibuor ni Efraim, kaka sibuor malich ni Juda. Abiro kidhogi matindo tindo bangʼe to abiro weyogi. Anatingʼ-gi matergi mabor, maonge ngʼama nyalo resogi.
15 I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me earnestly.
Bangʼe to anadog kar dakna, nyaka chop kinde maginiyie ni giseketho. Giniduog ira ka gidwara gi chunygi duto nikech thagruok malit magiseyudo.”
