Hosea 9
1 Do not choose to rejoice, Israel; do not celebrate as the crowds do. For you have been committing fornication against your God; you have loved a prize upon every threshing floor of wheat.
MAI hauoli, e ka Iseraela, me ka olioli, e like me na lahuikanaka; No ka mea, ua hele moe kolohe aku oe mai kou Akua aku, Ua makemake aku oe i na makana ma na kahua hehi palaoa a pau.
2 The threshing floor and the oil press will not feed them, and the wine will deceive them.
O ke kahua, a me kahi kaomi waina, aole e hanai laua ia lakou, A e pau auanei ka waina hou iloko ona.
3 They will not dwell in the land of the Lord. Ephraim has been returned to Egypt, and he has eaten polluted things among the Assyrians.
Aole lakou e noho ma ka aina o Iehova; Aka, e hoi hou o Eperaima i Aigupita; A e ai lakou i na mea haumia ma Asuria.
4 They will not offer a libation of wine to the Lord, and they will not please him. Their sacrifices will be like the bread of mourners. All those who eat it will be defiled. For their bread is of their soul; it will not enter into the house of the Lord.
Aole lakou e kaumaha aku i ka waina ia Iehova, Aole ia e oluolu mai ia mau mea. O ka lakou mau mohai, e like auanei ia lakou me ka berena o ka poe e kanikau ana: O ka poe a pau e ai iho ia mea e haumia lakou; No ka mea, o ka lakou berena no ko lakou ola, aole e laweia oia iloko o ka hale o Iehova.
5 What will you do on the solemn day, on the day of the feast of the Lord?
Heaha la uanei ka oukou e hana'i i ka la ahaaina, A i ka la ahaaina a Iehova?
6 For, behold, they have been sent away by devastation. Egypt will gather them together; Memphis will bury them. Nettles will inherit their desired silver; the burr will be in their tabernacles.
No ka mea, aia hoi, ua hele aku lakou mai ka luku aku: E hoakoakoa o Aigupita ia lakou, E kanu aku no o Memepi ia lakou. A o na wahi maikai i kuaiia no ko lakou kala e paapu ia i ka puakala; A maloko o ko lakou mau halelewa e kupu ka laau ooi.
7 The days of visitation have arrived; the days of retribution are here. Know this, Israel: that the prophet was foolish, the spiritual man was mad, because of the multitude of your iniquities and the great extent of your foolishness.
Ua hiki mai na la o ka hoopai ana, Ua hiki mai na la o ka uku ana; E ike auanei ka Iseraela: Ua naaupo ke kaula, a ua hehena ke kanaka kilokilo uhane, no ka hoonuiia o kou hewa, a me ka nui o ka inaina.
8 The watcher of Ephraim was with my God. The prophet has become a snare of ruin over all his ways; insanity is in the house of his God.
E kali ana o Eperaima i ke kokua, mai ko'u Akua mai: O ke kaula, he punihei ia o ka mea punihei manu ma kona aoao a pau, A he mea inaina ma ka hale o ke Akua.
9 They have sinned profoundly, just as in the days of Gibeah. He will remember their iniquity, and he will repay their sin.
Ua hana hewa nui lakou e like me na la o Gibea: Nolaila, e hoomanao mai ia i ko lakou hala, A e hoopai mai hoi i ko lakou mau hewa.
10 I discovered Israel like grapes in the desert. Like the first fruits of the fig tree, I saw their fathers on the end of its branches. But they went in to Baal-peor, and they have been estranged by intermingling, and they have become abominable, just like the things that they chose to love.
Ua loaa ia'u ka Iseraela e like me na hua waina ma ka waonahele; Ua ike au i ko oukou poe kupuna, e like me ka hua mua ma ka laau fiku i kona hua mua ana; Aka, hele aku la lakou ia Baala-peora, a hookaawale ia lakou iho no ka mea hilahila: A o na mea hoowahawahaia, ua like me ko lakou makemake.
11 Ephraim has chased away their glory like a bird: from birth, and from the womb, and from conception.
A no ka Eperaima, e lele aku auanei ko lakou nani me he manu la, mai ka hanau ana mai, mai ka opu mai, a mai ka hapai ana mai.
12 And even if they should nurture their sons, I will make them without children among men. Yes, and woe to them, when I have withdrawn from them.
Ina paha e hanai lakou i na keiki a lakou, E hoonele aku au ia lakou mawaena aku o kanaka: A he poino ko lakou i ka wa a'u e haalele ai ia lakou!
13 Ephraim, as I see it, was a Tyre, founded by beauty. And Ephraim will lead his sons to execution.
O Eperaima, e like me ko'u ike ana ma Turo, ua kanuia oia ma kahi maikai: Aka, e alakai aku o Eperaima i kaua poe keiki no ka mea pepehi.
14 Give them, O Lord. What will you give them? Give them a womb without children, and dry breasts.
E Iehova, e haawi aku oe ia lakou i ka mea au e haawi aku ai; E haawi aku ia lakou i ka opu hanau hapa wale, a me na u maloo.
15 All their wickedness is in Gilgal, for I held them there, in their hatred. Because of the malice of their inventions, I will expel them from my house. I will no longer say that I love them; all their leaders have retreated.
O ko lakou hewa a pau, aia ma Gilegala; No ka mea, malaila au i inaina aku ai ia lakou: No ka hewa o ka lakou hana ana e kipaku aku ai au ia lakou mai ko'u hale aku, Aole au e aloha hou aku ia lakou, A o ko lakou mau alii, he poe kipi lakou!
16 Ephraim has been struck; their root has been dried out: by no means will they yield fruit. And even if they should conceive, I will execute the most beloved of their womb.
Ua hahauia o Eperaima, Ua maloo ko lakou aa; Aole lakou e hua mai ka hua; A ina e hanau mai lakou, E pepehi no au i na mea aloha o ko lakou opu.
17 My God will cast them aside because they have not listened to him; and they will be wanderers among the nations.
E kipaku auanei kuu Akua ia lakou, No ka mea, aole lakou i hoolohe ia ia; A e lilo lakou i poe aea mawaena o na lahuikanaka.
