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 teh kahlî a pahap. Kanîtholae kahlî hah a pâlei. A hnintangkuem laithoe hoi rawknae hah a kampai sak. Assirianaw hoi a kâhuiko nahlangva vah, Izip ram lah satui a sin awh.
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.
Cathut ni Judahnaw koehai lungkuephoehnae a tawn. Jakop e tawksaknae hah lawkceng vaiteh, a sak e patetlah moi a pathung han.
3 Hee tooke his brother by the heele in the wombe, and by his strength he had power with God,
Jakop teh a manu von thung vah, a hmau e khokpaimai a kuet. A tha a sai teh, Cathut hoi a kâthe. Kalvantami hoi a kâthe teh a tâ.
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.
Khuika laihoi yo la a kâhei toe. Kalvan ransabawi Cathut hah bethel vah a hmu teh, hawvah lawk a dei pouh.
5 Yea, the Lord God of hostes, the Lord is himselfe his memoriall.
Jehovah teh ransabawi Cathut lah ao. Jehovah tie teh amae min doeh.
6 Therefore turne thou to thy God: keepe mercy and iudgement, and hope still in thy God.
Hatdawkvah, na Cathut koe bout ban leih. Lungmanae, lannae pouk nateh, na Cathut hah pout laipalah ngaihawi haw.
7 He is Canaan: the balances of deceit are in his hand: he loueth to oppresse.
Ahni teh hno kayawtkung e lah a o, dumnae yawcu hah a patuep. Ayânaw rektap ngainae lung a tawn.
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.
Hatei, Ephraim ni kai teh, ka tawnta hnopainaw ka hmouk toe. Ka tawksak e pueng dawk payonpakainae hmu han kawi awm hoeh telah 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.
Kai teh Izip ram thung hoi na ka tâcawtkhai e na Jehovah Cathut lah ka o. Pawi hnin nah na o e patetlah rim dawk bout na o sak han.
10 I haue also spoken by the Prophets, and I haue multiplied visions, and vsed similitudes by the ministerie of the Prophets.
Kai ni profetnaw hno lahoi vision moi na poe toe. Bangnuenae hai moi na dei pouh toe.
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.
Gilgal ram teh a payon. Khocaramcanaw teh cungkei awh hoeh. Gilgal khovah, maito hoi thuengnae a sak awh ei, thuengnae khoungroenaw teh, laikawk thawn nah talai kacoum e naw patetlah doeh ao.
12 And Iaakob fled into the countrey of Aram, and Israel serued for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheepe.
Jakop teh, Assiria ram lah a yawng. Isarel teh yu la thai nahanelah, san a toung teh tuhu a khoum.
13 And by a Prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a Prophet was he reserued.
Cathut ni profet lahoi Isarel hah, Izip ram hoi a hlout sak teh, profet lahoi a khetyawt.
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 ni Cathut a lungkhuek sak. Hatdawkvah, tami theinae yon teh ahni koe a pha han. Min mathoenae hah ama lathueng a bo han
