Hosea 7
1 When I heal Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim will be exposed, as well as the crimes of Samaria. For they practice deceit and thieves break in; bandits raid in the streets.
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 But they fail to consider in their hearts that I remember all their evil. Now their deeds are all around 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 delight the king with their evil, and the princes 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, like an oven heated by a baker who needs not stoke the fire from the kneading to the rising of the dough.
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 The princes are inflamed with wine on the day of our king; so he joins hands with those who mock him.
Ní ọjọ́ àjọ̀dún ọba wa wáìnì mú ara ọmọ-aládé gbóná ó sì darapọ̀ mọ́ àwọn oníyẹ̀yẹ́.
6 For they prepare their heart like an oven while they lie in wait; all night their anger smolders; in the morning it blazes like 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 All of them are hot as an oven, and they devour their rulers. All their kings fall; not one of them calls upon 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 mixes with the nations; Ephraim is an unturned cake.
“Efraimu ti darapọ̀ mọ́ àwọn ènìyàn náà; Efraimu jẹ́ àkàrà tí a kò yípadà.
9 Foreigners consume his strength, but he does not notice. Even his hair is streaked with gray, but 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 Israel’s arrogance testifies against them, yet they do not return to the LORD their God; despite all this, they do not seek Him.
Ìgbéraga Israẹli ń jẹ́rìí sí i ṣùgbọ́n pẹ̀lú gbogbo èyí kò padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa Ọlọ́run, tàbí kí ó wá a.
11 So Ephraim has become like a silly, senseless dove— calling out to Egypt, then turning 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 As they go, I will spread My net over them; I will bring them down like birds of the air. I will chastise them when I hear them flocking together.
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 strayed from Me! Destruction to them, for they have rebelled against Me! Though I would redeem them, they speak 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 They do not cry out to Me from their hearts when they wail upon their beds. They slash themselves for grain and new wine, but turn away from 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 Although I trained and strengthened their arms, they plot evil against Me.
Mo kọ́ wọn, mo sì fún wọn ní agbára, síbẹ̀ wọ́n tún ń dìtẹ̀ mọ́ mi.
16 They turn, but not to the Most High; they are like a faulty bow. Their leaders will fall by the sword for the cursing of their tongue; for this they will be ridiculed 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.
