Hosea 7
1 When I would heal Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim is discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they practise falsehood; and the thief entereth in, [and] the troop of robbers assaileth without.
Raha ta-hanasitrana ny Isiraely Aho, dia miseho ny helok’ i Efraima sy ny faharatsian’ i Samaria, fa manao fitaka izy; Miditra ny mpangalatra, ary ny jiolahy manao andiany dia mandehandeha eny ivelany.
2 And they say not in their hearts [that] I remember all their wickedness: now do their own doings encompass them; they are before my face.
Ary tsy heveriny ao am-po fa tsarovako ny faharatsiany rehetra; Ankehitriny dia gejan’ ny nataony izy, efa tonga eo anatrehako izany.
3 They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
Amin’ ny faharatsiany no ampifaliany ny mpanjaka, ary amin’ ny laingany ny mpanapaka.
4 They all practise adultery, as an oven heated by the baker: he ceaseth from stirring [the fire] after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.
Samy mpaka vadin’ olona avokoa izy rehetra ka toy ny fatana voafanan’ ny mpanendy mofo, izay mitsahatra tsy misorona afo hatramin’ ny ametafetany ny koba ka ambara-pitombony.
5 In the day of our king, the princes made themselves sick with the heat of wine: he stretched out his hand to scorners.
Tamin’ ny andron’ ny mpanjakantsika dia nankarary tena tamin’ ny fanafanan’ ny herin’ ny divay ny mpanapaka; Nifandray tanana tamin’ ny mpaniratsira ny mpanjaka.
6 For they have applied their heart like an oven to their lying in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth like a flaming fire.
Fa entin’ ireo ho ao am-panotrehana ny fony, toy ny ho ao amin’ ny fatana; Mandritra ny alina dia matory ihany ny mpanendy azy, ary nony maraina dia toy ny lelafo mirehitra ny fatana.
7 They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
Samy mahamay toy ny fatana izy rehetra ka mandevona ny andriambaventiny; Efa lavo avokoa, ny mpanjakany, tsy misy miantso Ahy izy rehetra.
8 Ephraim, he mixeth himself with the peoples; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
Efraima dia miharoharo amin’ ireo firenena; Efraima dia efa tonga ampempa tsy voavadika.
9 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth [it] not; yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, and he knoweth [it] not.
Lanin’ ny vahiny ny heriny, nefa tsy fantany akory izany; Eny, efa mipi-bolo ihany izy, saingy tsy fantany.
10 And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face; and they do not return to Jehovah their God, nor seek him for all this.
Ary ny avonavon’ Isiraely dia vavolombelona manameloka azy; Nefa, na dia izany rehetra izany aza, dia tsy miverina amin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny ihany izy, na mitady Azy.
11 And Ephraim is become like a silly dove without understanding: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
Ary Efraima dia efa tonga tahaka ny voromailala adaladala tsy manan-tsaina; Efa miantso an’ i Egypta izy ary efa mankany Asyria.
12 When they go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowl of the heavens; I will chastise them, according as their assembly hath heard.
Raha vao mandeha izy, dia hovelariko aminy ny fandrika haratoko, ka hampidiniko ao toy ny voro-manidina izy; Hofaizako izy araka izay efa nambara tamin’ ny fiangonany.
13 Woe unto them! for they have wandered from me; destruction unto them! for they have transgressed against me. And I would redeem them; but they speak lies against me.
Lozan’ ireny! satria nandositra Ahy izy, haringana izy! satria niodina tamiko; Izaho ta-hanavotra azy, fa izy kosa dia lainga no entiny milaza Ahy.
14 And they cried not unto me in their heart, when they howled upon their beds; they assemble themselves for corn and new wine; they have turned aside from me.
Ary tsy mitaraina amiko ao am-pony izy, fa midradradradra foana ao am-pandriany; Mitangorona hitady vary sy ranom-boaloboka izy, dia miodina miala amiko.
15 I have indeed trained, I have strengthened their arms, but they imagine mischief against me.
Ary Izaho no nampianatra sy nanatanjaka ny sandriny, nefa izy kosa dia misaintsain-dratsy Ahy,
16 They return, [but] not to the [Most] High: they are like a deceitful bow. Their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
Miverina ihany izy, nefa tsy ho amin’ ny Avo; Tonga tahaka ny tsipìka manjiona izy; Ho lavon-tsabatra ny mpanapaka azy noho ny firehitry ny lelany; Izany no ho latsany any amin’ ny tany Egypta.
