Hosea 13
1 When Ephraim spoke, there was trembling; he exalted himself in Israel: but he trespassed through Baal, and he died.
Kane Efraim owuoyo, to ji ne tetni, nodhiale e piny Israel. To notimo richo kuom lamo Baal, mi notho.
2 And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, idols according to their own understanding, all of it the work of the craftsmen: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves.
Koro gimedo timo richo, bende giloso nyisechegi mag fedha mondo gilam, ma gin kido molos gi rieko mangʼeny, magi duto gin tich jopa bepe. Wachore kuom jogi niya, “Gitimo misango gi dhano, kendo ginyodho kido molos mar nyaroya.”
3 Therefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the early dew that passeth away, as the chaff driven with the whirlwind out of the threshing-floor, and as the smoke out of the lattice.
Emomiyo ginichal mana kaka ongʼwengʼo mokinyi, bende kaka thoo mar okinyi malal nono ka nyango owuok, bende kaka mihudhwe ma yamo keyo kar dino, bende kaka iro mawuok e dirisa.
4 Yet I [am] Jehovah thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou hast known no God but me; and there is no saviour besides me.
“To An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu mane ogolou ua e piny Misri. Ok unyal yango Nyasaye moro amora ma ok An, onge Jawar machielo makmana An.
5 I knew thee in the wilderness, in the land of drought.
Ne aritou e piny motwo, maliel ka mach.
6 According to their pasture, they became full; they became full, and their heart was exalted: therefore have they forgotten me.
Kane apidhogi ne giyiengʼ chuth; kane giseyiengʼ to sunga nomakogi; ma wigi owil koda.
7 And I will be unto them as a lion; as a leopard I will lurk for them by the way;
Omiyo anabi irgi ka sibuor, kendo ka kwach abiro buto negi e bath yo.
8 I will meet them as a bear bereaved of her [whelps], and will rend the covering of their heart, and there will I devour them like a lioness: the beast of the field shall tear them.
Anamonjgi mi ayiechgi matindo tindo mana ka ondiek ma omaa nyithinde. Anatiekgi mana ka sibuor, bende le mag bungu noyiechgi matindo tindo.
9 It is thy destruction, O Israel, that [thou art] against me, against thy help.
“Osetieku yaye Israel, nikech ok udwara, ok udwar jakonyu.
10 Where then is thy king, that he may save thee in all thy cities? and thy judges of whom thou saidst, Give me a king and princes? —
Ere ruodhu mondo koro oresu? Ere jotendu e miechu, mane usekwayo ni, ‘Miwa ruodh kod jotendwa?’
11 I gave thee a king in mine anger, and took him away in my wrath.
Kuom ich wangʼ mare ne amiyou ruoth kendo e mirimba ne agole oko.
12 The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is laid by in store.
Timbe mamono mag Efraim osekan, kendo richoge osendik e kitabu.
13 The pangs of a woman in travail shall come upon him: he is a son not wise; for at the time of the breaking forth of children, he was not there.
Rem machalo gi mar dhako mamuoch kayo nobine, to en nyathi maonge gi rieko, ma ka sa ochopo monego owuog e ich to okia kama iwuok godo.
14 I will ransom them from the power of Sheol. I will redeem them from death: where, O death, are thy plagues? where, O Sheol, is thy destruction? Repentance shall be hid from mine eyes. (Sheol h7585)
“Abiro resogi kuom teko mar piny joma otho kendo anakonygi kuom tho. In tho, ere masicheni duto, kata in piny joma otho, ere kethruokni? “Ok anakeche, (Sheol h7585)
15 Though he be fruitful among [his] brethren, an east wind shall come, a wind of Jehovah [that] cometh up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up: he shall spoil the treasure of all pleasant vessels.
kata ka obedo ni odhi maber kamano e kind owetene. Yamb yor wuok chiengʼ moa ir Jehova Nyasaye nobi, kakudho koa e piny motwo, ma pigene mag sokni mamol nodwon, kod yewni mokuny bende nodwon. Mwandune manie dechege noyaki duto.
16 Samaria shall bear her guilt; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword; their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up.
Jo-Samaria nokum kuom richogi nikech gisengʼanyo ne Nyasachgi. Noneg-gi gi ligangla; nyithindgi matindo nochwad piny, to mondgi mapek nobar iyegi.”
