Hosea 7
1 When I would have healed Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria, for they have committed falsehood, and the thief is come in to steal, the robber is without.
Nang aking pagagalingin ang Israel, ang kasamaan nga ng Ephraim ay lumitaw, at ang kasamaan ng Samaria; sapagka't sila'y nagsinungaling; at ang magnanakaw ay pumapasok, at ang pulutong ng mga tulisan ay nananamsam sa labas.
2 And lest they may say in their hearts, that I remember all their wickedness: their own devices now have beset them about, they have been done before my face.
At hindi nila ginugunita sa kanilang mga puso na aking inaalaala ang lahat nilang kasamaan: ngayo'y kinukulong sila sa palibot ng kanilang sariling mga gawa; sila'y nangasa harap ko.
3 They have made the king glad with their wickedness: and the princes with their lies.
Kanilang pinasasaya ng kanilang kasamaan ang hari, at ng kanilang pagsisinungaling ang mga prinsipe.
4 They are all adulterers, like an oven heated by the baker: the city rested a little from the mingling of the leaven, till the whole was leavened.
Silang lahat ay mga mangangalunya; sila'y parang hurnong iniinit ng magtitinapay; siya'y tumitigil na magsulong ng apoy, mula sa paggawa ng masa hanggang sa umaasim.
5 The day of our king, the princes began to be mad with wine: he stretched out his hand with scorners.
Nang kaarawan ng ating hari ang mga prinsipe ay nagpakasakit sa pamamagitan ng tapang ng alak; kaniyang iniuunat ang kaniyang kamay sa mga mangduduwahagi.
6 Because they have applied their heart like an oven, when he laid snares for them: he slept all the night baking them, in the morning he himself was heated as a flaming fire.
Sapagka't kanilang inihanda ang kanilang puso na parang hurno, samantalang sila'y nangagaabang: ang kanilang magtitinapay ay natutulog magdamag; sa kinaumagaha'y nagniningas na parang liyab na apoy.
7 They were all heated like an oven, and have devoured their judges: all their kings have fallen: there is none amongst them that calleth unto me.
Silang lahat ay nangagiinit na parang hurno, at nilalamon ang kanilang mga hukom; lahat nilang hari ay nangabuwal: wala sa kanila na tumawag sa akin.
8 Ephraim himself is mixed among the nations: Ephraim is become as bread baked under the ashes, that is not turned.
Ang Ephraim, nakikisalamuha sa mga bayan; ang Ephraim ay isang tinapay na hindi binalik.
9 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knew it not: yea, grey hairs also are spread about upon him, and he is ignorant of it.
Nilamon ng mga taga ibang lupa ang kaniyang yaman, at hindi niya nalalaman: oo, mga uban ay nasasabog sa kaniya, at hindi niya nalalaman.
10 And the pride of Israel shall be humbled before his face: and they have not returned to the Lord their God, nor have they sought him in all these.
At ang kapalaluan ng Israel ay nagpapatotoo sa kaniyang mukha: gayon ma'y hindi sila nanumbalik sa Panginoon nilang Dios, ni hinanap man siya nila, dahil sa lahat na ito.
11 And Ephraim is become as a dove that is decoyed, not having a heart: they called upon Egypt, they went to the Assyrians.
At ang Ephraim ay parang isang mangmang na kalapati, na walang unawa sila'y nagsitawag sa Egipto, sila'y nagsiparoon sa Asiria.
12 And when they shall go, I will spread my net upon them: I will bring them down as the fowl of the air, I will strike them as their congregation hath heard.
Pagka sila'y magsisiyaon, ay aking ilaladlad ang aking lambat sa kanila; akin silang ibabagsak na parang mga ibon sa himpapawid; aking parurusahan sila, gaya ng narinig sa kanilang kapisanan.
13 Woe to them, for they have departed from me: they shall be wasted because they have transgressed against me: and I redeemed them: and they have spoken lies against me.
Sa aba nila! sapagka't sila'y nagsilayas sa akin; kagibaa'y suma kanila! sapagka't sila'y nagsisalangsang laban sa akin: bagaman sila'y aking tinubos, gayon ma'y nangagsalita ng kasinungalingan sila laban sa akin.
14 And they have not cried to me with their heart, but they howled in their beds: they have thought upon wheat and wine, they are departed from me.
At sila'y hindi nagsidaing sa akin ng kanilang puso, kundi sila'y nagsiangal sa kanilang mga higaan: sila'y nagpupulong dahil sa trigo at alak; sila'y nanganghimagsik laban sa akin.
15 And I have chastised them, and strengthened their arms: and they have imagined evil against me.
Bagaman aking tinuruan at pinalakas ang kanilang mga bisig, gayon ma'y nangagisip sila ng kalikuan laban sa akin.
16 They returned, that they might be without yoke: they became like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword, for the rage of their tongue. This is their derision in the land of Egypt.
Sila'y nanganunumbalik, nguni't hindi sa kaniya na nasa kaitaasan: sila'y parang magdarayang busog: ang kanilang mga prinsipe ay mangabubuwal sa pamamagitan ng tabak dahil sa poot ng kanilang dila: ito ang magiging katuyaan sa kanila sa lupain ng Egipto.
