Hosea 8
1 Let there be a trumpet in thy throat like an eagle upon the house of the Lord: because they have transgressed my covenant, and have violated my law.
Mongka ueng haw. Taran teh mataw patetlah Cathut imthungkhu kâtaran lahoi a tho. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh ni ka lawkkam a tapoe awh teh, kâlawk a taran awh.
2 They shall call upon me: O my God, we, Israel, know thee.
Hatei, ahnimouh ni, kaimae Cathut, kaimouh teh Isarel miphun lah ka o awh teh, Bawipa nang teh na panue awh telah koe a hram awh.
3 Israel hath cast off the thing that is good, the enemy shall pursue him.
Isarelnaw ni hnokahawi a hnoun awh dawkvah, taran ni a rektap han.
4 They have reigned, but not by me: they have been princes, and I knew not: of their silver, and their gold they have made idols to themselves, that they might perish.
Kaie kâ laipalah siangpahrang a rawi awh teh, ka panuek laipalah bawinaw hah a rawi awh. Rawk nahanelah amamae sui hoi amamouh hane meikaphawk a sak awh toe.
5 Thy calf, O Samaria, is cast off, my wrath is kindled against them. How long will they be incapable of being cleansed?
Oe Samaria, na maitoca hah tâkhawng leih. Kabawknaw koe ka lungphuen. Ahnimouh ni nâtotouh maw thoungnae panuek laipalah ao awh han vai.
6 For itself also is the invention of Israel: a workman made it, and it is no god: for the calf of Samaria shall be turned to spiders’ webs.
Hate maitoca teh Isarelnaw ni sak e lah ao teh, sak e lah ao dawkvah Cathut nahoeh. Samaria maitoca teh reppasei lah a rawk han.
7 For they shall sow wind, and reap a whirlwind, there is no standing stalk in it, the bud shall yield no meal; and if it should yield, strangers shall eat it.
Kahlî cati hah a kahei awh teh, bongparui cang a a awh han. Cakung awm mahoeh. A vui dawk hoi tavai tâcawt mahoeh. A tâco nakunghai ramlouknaw ni a ca awh han.
8 Israel is swallowed up: now is he become among the nations like an unclean vessel.
Isarel teh payawp lah ao toe. Apinihai a ngaihoeh e hno patetlah Jentelnaw koe ao han.
9 For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath given gifts to his lovers.
Assiria ram lah amahmawk a cei. Ephraim teh, amadueng kâva e la patetlah a pahrennaw hah aphu a poe toe.
10 But even though they shall have hired the nations, now will I gather them together: and they shall rest a while from the burden of the king, and the princes.
Jentelnaw hah aphu a poe eiteh, vaitalahoi, taminaw hah ka pâkhueng han. Nâsittouh ao hoehnahlan, siangpahrang hoi bawinaw e hno hah hnori lah na phu awh han.
11 Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin: altars are become to him unto sin.
Ephraim ni amae yon a kamnue nahanlah thuengnae khoungroe moi a sak dawkvah, khoungroenaw hah ahnie yon telah ati awh han.
12 I shall write to him my manifold laws, which have been accounted as foreign.
Kaie kâlawk a lentoenae hah ahni hanelah ka thut pouh toe. Hatei, banglahai ngâi hoeh.
13 They shall offer victims, they shall sacrifice flesh, and shall eat it, and the Lord will not receive them: now will he remember their iniquity, and will visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
Kai hanlah hmoun e pasoumhno hah thuengnae kasaknaw ni a thueng awh teh a ca awh. Hatei, Cathut ni coe pouh hoeh. Ahnimae yon hah a pâkuem pouh teh, a kung a khei dawkvah, ahnimouh teh Izip ram lah bout a ban awh han.
14 And Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and hath built temples: and Juda hath built many fenced cities: and I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the houses thereof.
Isarelnaw ni kasakkung a pahnim awh teh, im kahawi kahawi a sak awh. Judah ni hai ka cak e kho hah apung sak awh. Hatei, hote khonaw hah hmai ka sawi vaiteh, im kahawi kahawi naw hmai a kak awh han.
