Hosea 12
1 Ephraim is fed with the winde, and followeth after the East winde: hee increaseth daily lies and destruction, and they do make a couenant with Asshur, and oyle is caried into Egypt.
Ephraim loh khohli dongah luem tih kanghawn a hloem. Hnin takuem ah laithae tih rhoelrhanah te a ping sak. Assyria neh paipi a saii uh tih Egypt la situi a khuen.
2 The Lord hath also a controuersie with Iudah, and will visite Iaakob, according to his waies: according to his workes, wil he recompence him.
BOEIPA he Judah neh tuituknah om. Jakob te a longpuei bangla a cawh vetih a khoboe bangla anih te a thuung ni.
3 Hee tooke his brother by the heele in the wombe, and by his strength he had power with God,
Bungko khuiah a maya te a uelh sak tih Pathen te a thahuem neh a hnueih.
4 And had power ouer the Angel, and preuailed: he wept and praied vnto him: he founde him in Beth-el, and there he spake with vs.
Puencawn te khaw a hnueih tih a noeng. Rhap tih anih te a hloep. Amah te Bethel ah a hmuh tih mamih taengah pahoi a thui.
5 Yea, the Lord God of hostes, the Lord is himselfe his memoriall.
YAHWEH ngawn tah caempuei Pathen la a om dongah amah mingthen khaw YAHWEH ni.
6 Therefore turne thou to thy God: keepe mercy and iudgement, and hope still in thy God.
Tedae nang tah na Pathen taengla mael laeh. Sitlohnah neh tiktamnah he ngaithuen lamtah na Pathen te lamtawn yoeyah lah.
7 He is Canaan: the balances of deceit are in his hand: he loueth to oppresse.
Hnoyoi loh a kut dongah thailatnah cooi a khueh tih hnaemtaek ham a lungnah.
8 And Ephraim saide, Notwithstanding I am rich, I haue found me out riches in all my labours: they shall finde none iniquitie in me, that were wickednesse.
Ephraim loh, “Ka boei ngawn, kamah hamla thahuem ka dang, ka thaphu boeih ni, ka khuiah tholhnah la thaesainah hmuh uh mahpawh,” a ti.
9 Though I am the Lord thy God, from the land of Egypt, yet will I make thee to dwel in the tabernacles, as in the daies of the solemne feast.
Egypt kho lamkah parhi te nangmih kah Pathen YAHWEH kamah long ni nang te dap khuiah tingtunnah khohnin kah bangla koep kho kan sak sak eh.
10 I haue also spoken by the Prophets, and I haue multiplied visions, and vsed similitudes by the ministerie of the Prophets.
Tonghma rhoek lamloh kan thui tih ka mangthui khaw yet coeng. Tonghma rhoek kut lamlong khaw ka puet sak.
11 Is there iniquitie in Gilead? surely they are vanitie: they sacrifice bullocks in Gilgal, and their altars are as heapes in the furrowes of the field.
Gilead kah boethae a om atah Gilgal ah om khaw a poeyoek. Vaito a nawn uh akhaw amih kah hmueihtuk te lai kong ah lungkuk bangla om.
12 And Iaakob fled into the countrey of Aram, and Israel serued for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheepe.
Jakob te Aram khohmuen la yong coeng. Israel he huta hamla thotat tih a yuu hamla a dawn.
13 And by a Prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a Prophet was he reserued.
BOEIPA loh Israel te Egypt lamloh tonghma kut neh a khuen tih tonghma kut neh a ngaithuen.
14 But Ephraim prouoked him with hie places: therefore shall his blood be powred vpon him, and his reproche shall his Lord reward him.
Ephraim loh kosidung te a veet dongah a thii te amah soah coe ni. A kokhahnah te a boei loh amah taengah a thuung ni.
