< Hosea 10 >
1 Israel a vine full of branches, the fruit is agreeable to it: according to the multitude of his fruit he hath multiplied altars, according to the plenty of his land he hath abounded with idols.
Israeri akanga ari muzambiringa unotanda; akazviberekera zvibereko. Zvibereko zvake pazvakawanda, akavakawo aritari dzakawanda; nyika yake payakabudirira, akashongedzawo matombo ake anoera.
2 Their heart is divided: now they shall perish: he shall break down their idols, he shall destroy their altars.
Mwoyo wavo unonyengera, uye zvino vanofanira kutakura mhosva yavo. Jehovha achaputsa aritari dzavo uye achaparadza matombo avo akaereswa.
3 For now they shall say: We have no king: because we fear not the Lord: and what shall a king do to us?
Ipapo vachati, “Hatina mambo nokuti hatina kukudza Jehovha. Asi kunyange taiva namambo, angadai akatiitireiko?”
4 You speak words of an unprofitable vision, and you shall make a covenant: and judgment shall spring up as bitterness in the furrows of the field.
Vanovimbisa zvakawanda, vanoita mhiko dzenhema uye vanoita zvibvumirano; naizvozvo mhosva dzinoendeswa kudare dzinomera sebise rinouraya mumunda wakarimwa.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria have worshipped the king of Bethaven: for the people thereof have mourned over it, and the wardens of its temple that rejoiced over it in its glory because it is departed from it.
Vanhu vanogara muSamaria vanotyira chifananidzo chemhuru chaBheti Avheni. Vanhu vacho vachachichema, ndizvo zvichaitawo vaprista vanonamata chifananidzo chacho; ivavo vakafarira kukudzwa kwacho, nokuti vachachitorerwa chigoendeswa kuutapwa.
6 For itself also is carried into Assyria, a present to the avenging king: shame shall fall upon Ephraim, and Israel shall be confounded in his own will.
Chichatakurwa chigoendeswa kuAsiria somutero kuna mambo mukuru. Efuremu achanyadziswa; Israeri achanyarawo nokuda kwezvifananidzo zvakavezwa.
7 Samaria hath made her king to pass as froth upon the face of the water.
Samaria namambo wayo ichaeredzwa sechimuti pamusoro pemvura.
8 And the high places of the idol, the sin of Israel shall be destroyed: the bur and the thistle shall grow up over their altars: and they shall say to the mountains: Cover us; and to the hills: Fall upon us.
Nzvimbo dzakakwirira dzouipi dzichaparadzwa, ichi ndicho chivi chaIsraeri. Minzwa norukato zvichamera zvigofukidza aritari dzavo. Ipapo vachati kumakomo, “Tifukidzei!” nokuzvikomo, “Wirai pamusoro pedu!”
9 From the days of Gabaa, Israel hath sinned, there they stood: the battle in Gabaa against the children of iniquity shall not overtake them.
“Kubva pamazuva eGibhea, wakatadza, iwe Israeri, uye ukarambirapo. Hondo haina kukunda vaiti vezvakaipa paGibhea here?
10 According to my desire I will chastise them: and the nations shall be gathered together against them, when they shall be chastised for their two iniquities.
Nenguva yandinoda ndichavaranga; ndudzi dzichaungana kuti dzivarwise dzivaise muusungwa nokuda kwezvivi zvavo zviviri.
11 Ephraim is a heifer taught to love to tread out corn, but I passed over upon the beauty of her neck: I will ride upon Ephraim, Juda shall plough, Jacob shall break the furrows for himself.
Efuremu itsiru rakapingudzwa rinofarira kupura; saka ndichaisa joko pamutsipa waro wakanaka. Ndichatinha Efuremu, Judha anofanira kurima, uye Jakobho anofanira kuputsa mavhinga acho.
12 Sow for yourselves in justice, and reap in the mouth of mercy, break up your fallow ground: but the time to seek the Lord is, when he shall come that shall teach you justice.
Zvidyarirei kururama, kohwai chibereko chorudo rusingaperi, mugorima gombo renyu; nokuti inguva yokutsvaka Jehovha, kusvikira auya kuzonayisa utsvene pamusoro penyu.
13 You have ploughed wickedness, you have reaped iniquity, you have eaten the fruit of lying: because thou hast trusted in thy ways, in the multitude of thy strong ones.
Asi makarima uipi, mukacheka zvakaipa, makadya zvibereko zvounyengeri, nokuti makavimba nesimba renyu uye navarwi venyu vakawanda,
14 A tumult shall arise among thy people: and all thy fortresses shall be destroyed as Salmana was destroyed, by the house of him that judged Baal in the day of battle, the mother being dashed in pieces upon her children.
kuomba kwehondo kuchamukira vanhu venyu, zvokuti masvingo enyu ose achaparadzwa, sokuparadzwa kwakaitwa Bheti Aribheri neSharimani pazuva rokurwa, vanamai pavakapanhirwa pasi pamwe chete navana vavo.
15 So hath Bethel done to you, because of the evil of your iniquities.
Ndizvo zvichaitika kwauri, iwe Bheteri, nokuti uipi hwako hukuru. Kana zuva iroro roswedera, mambo weIsraeri achaparadzwa zvachose.
