Osee 10

1 Israel is a vine with goodly branches, her fruit is abundant: according to the multitude of her fruits she has multiplied [her] altars; according to the wealth of his land, he has set up pillars.

He waina tupu wana a Iharaira, e whakaputa ana i ona hua: kua meinga e ia kia maha ana aata kia rite ki te maha o ona hua; kua hanga e ratou he whakapakoko whakapaipai rite tonu ki te pai o tona whenua.

2 They have divided their hearts; now shall they be utterly destroyed: he shall dig down their altars, their pillars shall mourn.

Kua wehe rua o ratou ngakau, akuanei ka kitea to ratou he: ka wahia e ia a ratou aata, ka pahuatia a ratou whakapakoko.

3 Because now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not the Lord:

He pono akuanei ratou ki ai, Kahore o tatou kingi: kahore hoki tatou i te wehi ki a Ihowa; a ko te kingi, ko te aha tana mo tatou?

4 and what should a king do for us, speaking false professions [as his] words? he will make a covenant: judgment shall spring up as a weed on the soil of the field.

E korero ana ratou i nga korero horihori, e oati teka ana i te mea e whakarite whakawa ana: na reira e rite ana te tupu o te whakawa ki to te hemoreke i nga moa o te mara.

5 The inhabitants of Samaria shall dwell near the calf of the house of On; for the people of it mourned for it: and as they provoked him, they shall rejoice at his glory, because he has departed from them.

Manukanuka tonu nga tangata o Hamaria ki nga kuao kau o Peteawene; ka tangihia hoki e tona iwi, e ona tohunga i whakamanamana nei ki a ia; mo tona kororia kua memeha atu nei i reira.

6 And having bound it for the Assyrians, they carried it away as presents to king Jarim: Ephraim shall receive a gift, and Israel shall be ashamed of his counsel.

Ka kawea ano hoki taua kuao ki Ahiria hei hakari ki a Kingi Iarepe: ka pa te whakama ki a Eparaima, ka whakama ano a Iharaira ki tana whakaaro i whakatakoto ai.

7 Samaria has cast off her king as a twig on the surface of the water.

Na ko Hamaria, kua kore tona kingi, ano he pahuka i runga i te wai.

8 And the altars of On, the sins of Israel, shall be taken away: thorns and thistles shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.

Ka whakakahoretia ano nga wahi tiketike o Awene, te hara o Iharaira; ka puta ake te tataramoa me te tumatakuru ki runga ki a ratou aata, a ka mea ratou ki nga maunga, Taupokina matou; ki nga pukepuke, E hinga ki runga ki a matou.

9 From the time the hills [existed] Israel has sinned: there they stood: war [waged] against the children of iniquity

E Iharaira, he hara tou, mai ano i nga ra i Kipea: tu ana ratou i reira: kia kore ai ratou e mau ki Kipea i te whawhai ki nga tama a te kino.

10 to chastise them shall not overtake them on the hill, the nations shall be gathered against them, when they are chastened for their two sins,

Kia hiahia ahau, ka whiua ratou e ahau; ka huihui ano nga iwi ki te whawhai ki a ratou, i a ratou ka herea nei ki o ratou he e rua.

11 Ephraim is a heifer taught to love victory, but I will come upon the fairest part of her neck: I will mount Ephraim; I will pass over Juda in silence; Jacob shall prevail against him.

He kuao kau ano a Eparaima kua oti te whakaako, pai tonu ia ki te takahi witi; kua tika atu ia ahau i runga i tona kaki pai: ka meinga e ahau he kaieke mo Eparaima; ko Hura ki te parau, ko Hakopa ki te wawahi i ana pokuru.

12 Sow to yourselves for righteousness, gather in for the fruit of life: light ye for yourselves the light of knowledge; seek the Lord till the fruits of righteousness come upon you.

Whakatokia ta koutou i runga i te tika, tapahia i runga i te mahi tohu; mahia ta koutou patohe: ko te wa hoki tenei e rapua ai a Ihowa, kia tae mai ra ano ia, kia ringihia ra ano e ia te tika ki runga ki a koutou.

13 Wherefore have ye passed over ungodliness in silence, and reaped the sins of it? ye have eaten false fruit; for thou has trusted in thy sins, in the abundance of thy power.

Ko ta koutou i parau ai ko te kino, ko ta koutou i kokoti ai ko te he; ko ta koutou kai ko nga hua o te teka: nau hoki i whakawhirinaki ki tou ara, ki te tini o ou tangata marohirohi.

14 Therefore shall destruction rise up among thy people, and all thy strong places shall be ruined: as a prince Solomon [departed] out of the house of Jeroboam, in the days of battle they dashed the mother to the ground upon the children,

Mo reira ka ara he ngangau i roto i ou iwi, a ka pahuatia ou pa taiepa katoa, ka rite ki ta Haramana pahuatanga i Petearapere i te ra o te whawhai: ko te whaea, taia iho ratou ko nga tamariki, mongamonga ana.

15 thus will I do to you, O house of Israel, because of the unrighteousness of your sins.

Ko ta Peteere tenei e mea ai ki a koutou, he nui no to koutou kino: ka whakangaromia rawatia te kingi o Iharaira i te atatu.
