< Hosea 10 >
1 Israel is a leafy vine, its fruit has been suitable to him. According to the multitude of his fruit, he has multiplied altars; according to the fertility of his land, he has abounded with graven images.
Israẹli jẹ́ igi àjàrà tó gbilẹ̀ ó ń so èso fún ara rẹ̀. Bí èso rẹ̀ ṣe ń pọ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó ń kọ́ pẹpẹ sí i bí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ ṣe ń ṣe rere o bu ọlá fún òkúta ìyàsọ́tọ̀ ère rẹ̀.
2 His heart has been divided, so now they will cross the divide. He will break apart their images; he will plunder their sanctuaries.
Ọkàn wọn kún fún ìtànjẹ báyìí wọ́n gbọdọ̀ ru ẹ̀bi wọn. Olúwa yóò wó pẹpẹ wọn palẹ̀ yóò sì pa gbogbo òkúta ìyàsọ́tọ̀ wọn run.
3 For now they will say, “We have no king. For we do not fear the Lord. And what would a king do for us?”
Nígbà náà ni wọn yóò wí pé, “A kò ní ọba nítorí tí a kò bọ̀wọ̀ fún Olúwa ṣùgbọ́n bí a tilẹ̀ ní ọba, kí ni yóò ṣe fún wa?”
4 You speak words about a useless vision, and you will strike a deal. And judgment will spring up like bitterness in the furrows of the field.
Wọ́n ṣe ìlérí púpọ̀, wọ́n ṣe ìbúra èké, wọ́n da májẹ̀mú; báyìí ni ìdájọ́ hù sókè bí igi ìwọ̀ ni aporo oko, bi i koríko májèlé láàrín oko tí a ro.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria have worshipped the calf of Bethaven. For the keepers of its temple, who had exulted over it in its glory, and its people, have mourned over it because it migrated from there.
Àwọn ènìyàn tí ń gbé Samaria bẹ̀rù nítorí ère abo màlúù tó wà ní Beti-Afeni. Àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ yóò ṣọ̀fọ̀ le e lórí bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn àlùfáà abọ̀rìṣà rẹ̀. Gbogbo àwọn tó láyọ̀ sì dídán rẹ̀, nítorí tí a ti mú lọ sí ìgbèkùn.
6 If, indeed, it also has been offered to Assur, as a gift for the Avenging king, confusion will seize Ephraim, and Israel will be confounded by his own will.
A ó gbé lọ sí Asiria gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀bùn fún ọba ńlá a ó dójútì Efraimu; ojú yóò ti Israẹli nítorí ìgbìmọ̀ rẹ̀.
7 Samaria has required her king to pass by, like foam on the face of the water.
Bí igi tó léfòó lórí omi ni Samaria àti àwọn ọba rẹ yóò sàn lọ.
8 And the heights of the idol, the sin of Israel, will be utterly destroyed. The burr and the thistle will rise up over their altars. And they will say to the mountains, ‘Cover us,’ and to the hills, ‘Fall on us.’
Àwọn ibi gíga tí ẹ tí ń hùwà búburú ni a o parun, èyí ni ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Israẹli. Ẹ̀gún ọ̀gàn àti ẹ̀gún òṣùṣú yóò hù jáde, yóò sì bo àwọn pẹpẹ wọn. Wọn yóò sọ fún àwọn òkè gíga pé, “Bò wá mọ́lẹ̀!” àti fún àwọn òkè kéékèèké pé, “Ṣubú lù wá!”
9 From the days of Gibeah, Israel has sinned; in this, they remained firm. The battle in Gibeah against the sons of iniquity will not take hold of them.
“Láti ìgbà Gibeah, ni ó ti ṣẹ̀, ìwọ Israẹli, ìwọ sì tún wà níbẹ̀. Ǹjẹ́ ogun kò lé ẹ̀yin aṣebi ni Gibeah bá bí?
10 According to my desire, I will correct them. And the peoples will be gathered together over them, while they are chastised for their two iniquities.
Nígbà tó bá tẹ́ mi lọ́rùn, èmi yóò fi ìyà jẹ wọ́n; Orílẹ̀-èdè yóò kó ra wọn jọ, wọ́n ó sì dojúkọ wọn, láti fi wọn sínú ìdè nítorí ìlọ́po ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.
11 Ephraim is a heifer that has been taught to love treading out the grain, but I passed over the beauty of her neck. I will rise over Ephraim. Judah will plough; Jacob will break up the soil for himself.
Efraimu jẹ́ ọmọ abo màlúù tí a tí kọ́, to si fẹ́ràn láti máa pa ọkà; lórí ọrun rẹ̀ tó lẹ́wà ni èmi ó dí ẹrù wúwo lé. Èmi yóò mú kí a gun Efraimu bí ẹṣin Juda yóò tú ilẹ̀, Jakọbu yóò sì fọ́ ògúlùtu rẹ̀.
12 Sow for yourselves in justice, and harvest in the mouth of mercy; renew your fallow land. But the time when you will seek the Lord is the time when he will arrive who will teach you justice.
Ẹ gbin òdòdó fún ara yín, kí ẹ sì ká èso ìfẹ́ àìlópin. Ẹ tu ilẹ̀ yín tí a kò ro, nítorí pé ó ti tó àsìkò láti wá Olúwa, títí tí yóò fi dé, tí yóò sì rọ òjò òdodo lé yín lórí.
13 You have ploughed impiety; you have harvested iniquity; you have eaten the fruit of lies. For you had confidence in your ways, in the multitude of your good fortunes.
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ tí gbin búburú ẹ si ka ibi, ẹ ti jẹ èso èké nítorí ẹ tí gbẹ́kẹ̀lé agbára yín àti àwọn ọ̀pọ̀ jagunjagun yín,
14 A tumult will arise among your people. And all your fortifications will be laid waste, just as Salman was destroyed by the house of him that judged Baal on the day of the battle, the mother having been crushed against her sons.
ariwo ogun yóò bo àwọn ènìyàn yín kí gbogbo odi agbára yín ba le parun. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Ṣalmani ṣe pa Beti-Arbeli run lọ́jọ́ ogun, nígbà tí a gbé àwọn ìyá ṣánlẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ wọn.
15 So has Bethel done to you, before the face of your malicious wickedness.
Báyìí ni a o sì ṣe sí ọ, ìwọ Beteli, nítorí pé ìwà búburú yín ti pọ̀jù. Ní àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́ ọjọ́ náà, a o pa ọba Israẹli run pátápátá.
