Hosea 11
1 As the morning passeth, so hath the king of Israel Israel was a child, and I loved him: and I called my son out of Egypt.
Nawkta nathuem ah Israel to ka palung, Izip prae thung hoiah ka capa to ka kawk.
2 As they called them, they went away from before their face: they offered victims to Baalim, and sacrificed to idols.
Nihcae to ka kawk naah, nihcae loe kangthla aep ah caeh o: Baalnawk khaeah hmuen tathlanghaih to a sak o moe, krangnawk khaeah hmuihoih a thlaek o.
3 And I was like a foster father to Ephraim, I carried them in my arms: and they knew not that I healed them.
Ephraim caeh thaih hanah ka patuk, anih ih ban ah ka patawnh moe, ka hoih; toe kai mah ngan ka tuisak, tito nihcae mah panoek o ai.
4 I will draw them with the cords of Adam, with the bands of love: and I will be to them as one that taketh off the yoke on their jaws: and I put his meat to him that he might eat.
Nihcae to poeknaemhaih hoiah ka zaeh moe, amlunghaih hoiah ka zaeng; kai loe nihcae hanah tahnong ih hnam kakhringh pae kaminawk baktiah ka oh, nihcae to buh ka pacah.
5 He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king: because they would not be converted.
Nihcae loe dawnpakhuem o ai pongah, anih loe Izip prae ah amlaem mak ai, Assyria kami loe anih ih siangpahrang ah om tih.
6 The sword hath begun in his cities, and it shall consume his chosen men, and shall devour their heads.
Anih ih vangpuinawk thungah sumsen alaekhaih to om tih, angmacae sak atimhaih baktih toengah, a ohhaih ahmuen to amro ueloe, nihcae to amrosak tih.
7 And my people shall long for my return: but a yoke shall be put upon them together, which shall not be taken off.
Kai ih kaminawk loe kai hnuk angqoi taak ving hanah poek o: nihcae mah to Kasang Koek, tiah palawk o, toe Anih to mi mah doeh pakoeh o ai.
8 How shall I deal with thee, O Ephraim, shall I protect thee, O Israel? how shall I make thee as Adama, shall I set thee as Seboim? my heart is turned within me, my repentance is stirred up.
Ephraim, kawbang maw nang hae kang pahnawt sut thai tih? Israel, kawbang maw nang hae kang prawt sut thai tih? Admah vangpui nuiah ka sak ih hmuen baktiah kawbang maw nang hae ka sah han? Nang hae kawbang maw Zeboiim baktiah kang suem thai tih? Ka poekhaih palung amkhraih moe, pop parai tahmenhaih to ka tawnh boeh.
9 I will not execute the fierceness of my wrath: I will not return to destroy Ephraim: because I am God, and not man: the holy one in the midst of thee, and I will not enter into the city.
Kanung parai palung ka phuihaih hoiah hmuen to ka sah mak ai, Ephraim to kam rosak mak ai: kai loe kami na ai, Sithaw ni; nangcae salakah kaom Ciimcai Sithaw ah ka oh; to pongah vangpui amrosak hanah kang zo mak ai.
10 They shall walk after the Lord, he shall roar as a lion: because he shall roar, and the children of the sea shall fear.
Nihcae mah Angraeng to patom o tih: Anih loe kaipui baktiah hang tih: Anih hangh naah, a caanawk tasoeh o ueloe, niduem bang hoiah angzo o tih.
11 And they shall fly away like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of the Assyrians: and I will place them in their own houses, saith the Lord.
Nihcae loe Izip prae ih tavaanawk baktih, Assyria prae ih pahuu baktiah, tasoehhaih hoiah angzo o tih: to naah nihcae to angmacae im ah ka ohsak han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
12 Ephraim hath compassed me about with denials, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Juda went down as a witness with God, and is faithful with the saints.
Lok amlaihaih hoiah Ephraim mah kai ang takui, Israel imthung takoh mah alinghaih hoiah kai ang takui: toe Judah loe oep kaom Ciimcai Sithaw, Sithaw khae hoiah loklam amkhraeng ving boeh.
