< Hosea 13 >
1 When Ephraim spake, there was trembling: hee exalted him selfe in Israel, but he hath sinned in Baal, and is dead.
Lè Éphraïm te pale, te gen tranbleman. Li te leve tèt li wo an Israël; men ak Baal, li te fè mal, e li te mouri.
2 And nowe they sinne more and more, and haue made them molten images of their siluer, and idoles according to their owne vnderstanding: they were all the woorke of the craftesmen: they say one to another whiles they sacrifice a man, Let them kisse the calues.
Epi koulye a, yo peche plis toujou, e yo fè pou tèt yo imaj fonn an ajan, menm zidòl yo selon jan yo konprann. Yo tout se zèv a mèt ouvriye yo ye. Yo di a yo menm: “Yo ofri sakrifis imen yo, e bo ti bèf yo!”
3 Therefore they shall bee as the morning cloude, and as the morning dewe that passeth away, as the chaffe that is driuen with a whirlewind out of the floore, and as the smoke that goeth out of the chimney.
Akoz sa, yo va tankou nwaj nan maten an ak lawouze k ap disparèt bonè, tankou pay ke van pote ale soti nan glasi vannen, e tankou Lafimen soti nan chemine.
4 Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt knowe no God but me: for there is no Sauiour beside me.
Malgre sa, Mwen se SENYÈ, Bondye ou, depi nan peyi Égypte la; epi ou pa pou konnen okenn dye sof ke Mwen; paske nanpwen sovè sof ke Mwen.
5 I did knowe thee in the wildernesse, in the land of drought.
Mwen te pran swen ou nan dezè a, nan peyi sechrès la.
6 As in their pastures, so were they filled: they were filled, and their heart was exalted: therefore haue they forgotten me.
Lè yo te vin jwenn patiraj yo, yo te vin satisfè; yo te vin satisfè e kè yo te vin ògeye. Konsa, yo te bliye Mwen.
7 And I wil be vnto them as a very lyon, and as a leopard in the way of Asshur.
Akoz sa, Mwen va vin tankou yon lyon anvè yo. Kon yon leyopa, Mwen va kouche an kachèt bò chemen an.
8 I will meete them, as a beare that is robbed of her whelpes, and I will breake the kall of their heart, and there will I deuoure them like a lion: the wilde beast shall teare them.
Mwen va rankontre yo kon yon lous ki fenk fin pèdi pitit li, e mwen va chire lestomak yo nèt. Sou plas, Mwen va devore yo tankou yon manman lyon, jan yon bèt sovaj ta chire yo.
9 O Israel, one hath destroyed thee, but in me is thine helpe.
Se destriksyon pa w, O Israël! Akoz ou kont Mwen, kont sekou ou.
10 I am: where is thy King, that shoulde help thee in al thy cities? and thy iudges, of whom thou saidest, Giue me a King, and princes?
Kote wa ou a koulye a, pou li ta ka sove ou nan tout vil ou yo? Ak jij ke ou te mande yo: “Ban mwen yon wa ak prens yo”?
11 I gaue thee a King in mine anger, and I tooke him away in my wrath.
Mwen te bay ou yon wa nan kòlè Mwen, e Mwen te fè l soti nan kòlè Mwen.
12 The iniquitie of Ephraim is bound vp: his sinne is hid.
Inikite a Éphraïm vin ogmante nèt; peche li vin mete nan depo.
13 The sorowes of a trauailing woman shall come vpon him: he is an vnwise sonne, els would he not stande still at the time, euen at the breaking forth of the children.
Doulè a yon fanm k ap pouse pitit va vini sou li; se pa yon fis ki saj, k ap rete nan vant ki ouvri e k ap tann li soti a.
14 I wil redeeme them from the power of the graue: I will deliuer them from death: O death, I wil be thy death: O graue, I will be thy destruction: repentance is hid from mine eyes. (Sheol )
Mwen va rachte yo soti anba pouvwa a Sejou mò yo; mwen va rachte yo soti anba lanmò. O lanmò! Kote pikan ou yo? O Sejou mò yo! Kote destriksyon ou an? Repantans va vin kache devan zye M. (Sheol )
15 Though he grewe vp among his brethren, an East winde shall come, euen the winde of the Lord shall come vp from the wildernesse, and drie vp his veine, and his fountaine shalbe dryed vp: he shall spoyle the treasure of all pleasant vessels.
Malgre li pote fwi pami frè li yo, yon van nan lès va vini; van SENYÈ a k ap monte soti nan dezè a. Sous dlo li va vin sèch, e fontèn dlo li va seche. Li va piyaje trezò tout bagay ki gen valè.
16 Samaria shalbe desolate: for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sworde: their infants shalbe dashed in pieces, and their women with childe shalbe ript.
Samarie va pote koupabilite li, paske li te fè rebèl kont Bondye li a. Yo va tonbe pa nepe. Timoun piti yo va vin kraze an mòso, epi fanm ansent yo va vin dechire nèt.
