Hosea 4
1 Heare the worde of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a controuersie with the inhabitants of the lande, because there is no trueth nor mercie nor knowledge of God in the lande.
Oe! Isarelnaw Cathut e lawk hah thai awh haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, khoca ramcanaw teh Cathut hoi a kâyue awh toe. Ahnimouh teh lawkkam cak awh hoeh, lungmanae tawn awh hoeh, Cathut taket awh hoeh.
2 By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and whoring they breake out, and blood toucheth blood.
Thoebonae, laithoenae, parunae, uicuknae hoi tami theinae teh kâhat laipalah a sak awh. Tami theinae yon hoi patuen patuen a kâthap awh.
3 Therefore shall the land mourne, and euery one that dwelleth therein, shall be cut off, with the beasts of the fielde, and with the foules of the heauen, and also the fishes of the sea shall be taken away.
Hatdawkvah, ahnimae ram teh a cingou han. Taminaw hoi kahrawng e moithangnaw, kahlun e tavanaw pueng teh a tha a kamyai han. Tuipui dawk e tanganaw hai a thup awh han.
4 Yet let none rebuke, nor reproue another: for thy people are as they that rebuke the Priest.
Hatei, apinihai ngang nahanh seh. Apinihai yue nahan seh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nange na miphunnaw hai vaihmanaw hoi kaounnaw patetlah doeh ao awh.
5 Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the Prophet shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.
Hatdawkvah, khodai lah na kamlei awh han. Karum lah vaihmanaw hoi rei na kamlei awh han. Na manu hai ka thei han.
6 My people are destroyed for lacke of knowledge: because thou hast refused knowledge, I will also refuse thee, that thou shalt be no Priest to me: and seeing thou hast forgotten the Lawe of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
Ka taminaw teh panuenae ayoun dawkvah a rawk awh. Nang ni panuenae na hnoun dawkvah kaie vaihma lah na o hoeh nahan nang teh na hnoun toe. Na Cathut e lawk na pahnim dawkvah na canaw teh ka pahnim han.
7 As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I chaunge their glorie into shame.
A lentoe awh e patetlah ahnimouh ni kai hah na pahnawt awh toe. Hatdawkvah ahnimae bawilennae hah yeirai ka po sak han.
8 They eate vp the sinnes of my people, and lift vp their mindes in their iniquitie.
Ka taminaw e yonthanae sathei moi a ca awh nahlangva vah, hote yonnae hah ouk a doun awh.
9 And there shalbe like people, like Priest: for I wil visite their wayes vpon them, and reward them their deedes.
Hatdawkvah, taminaw koe ka tâcawt e patetlah vaihmanaw koehai ka tâco sak han. Amamae tawksaknae patetlah ka rek vaiteh lengkaleng tawkphu ka poe han.
10 For they shall eate, and not haue ynough: they shall commit adulterie, and shall not increase, because they haue left off to take heede to ye Lord.
Rawca a ca awh ei, a von paha awh mahoeh. A kâyo awh ei, ca khe awh mahoeh.
11 Whoredome, and wine, and newe wine take away their heart.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, tak kâyonae, misurhruem, misurtui ni a lung a pathu sak teh, Cathut a pahnawt awh toe.
12 My people aske counsell at their stockes, and their staffe teacheth them: for the spirite of fornications hath caused them to erre, and they haue gone a whoring from vnder their God.
Ka taminaw ni bongpai hoi a kâpan awh teh, sonron koe pouknae a hei awh. Radueknae dawk a lungtang awh lawi vah, amamae Cathut koelah awm laipalah, a kâyo awh toe.
13 They sacrifice vpon the toppes of ye mountaines, and burne incense vpon the hilles vnder the okes, and the poplar tree, and the elme, because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters shall be harlots, and your spouses shall be whores.
Monsom vah thuengnae a sak awh teh, monruinaw hoi kathenkungnaw e tâhlip dawk hmuitui hmaisawi e hoi thuengnae a sak awh. Hatdawkvah na canunaw teh kâyawt e lah a coung awh teh, na langanaw teh a uicuk awh.
14 I will not visite your daughters when they are harlots: nor your spouses when they are whores: for they themselues are separated with harlots, and sacrifice with whores: therefore the people that doeth not vnderstand, shall fall.
Na canunaw ni a kâyo awh teh, na langanaw ni ka uicuk nakunghai lawk na ceng mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na yunaw na ceitakhai awh teh ka kâyawtnaw hoi tak na hmawng awh toe. Kâyawt e napuinaw hoi thuengnae reirei na sak awh toe. Hatdawkvah, panuenae kayounnaw teh a rawk awh han.
15 Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Iudah sinne: come not ye vnto Gilgal, neither goe ye vp to Beth-auen, nor sweare, The Lord liueth.
Oe! Isarelnaw nang teh na tak na kâyo ei nakunghai, Judahnaw na payon hoeh. Gilgal kho hoi kâhnai awh hanh. Bethaven kholah cet awh hanh. Cathut teh a hring dawkvah, thoebo awh hanh.
16 For Israel is rebellious as an vnruly heyfer. Nowe the Lord will feede them as a lambe in a large place.
Oe! Isarelnaw maitola patetlah na lahuen caksak awh hanh. A hmuen kawnae koe tuca khoum e patetlah Isarelnaw na khoum awh han.
17 Ephraim is ioyned to idoles: let him alone.
Kutsak dawk a lung kapen e Ephraim teh amahmawk awm naseh.
18 Their drunkennes stinketh: they haue committed whoredome: their rulers loue to say with shame, Bring ye.
Yamu a nei awh e teh taranthawnae doeh, pout laipalah a kâyo awh, khobawinaw ni kayanae hah a lungpataw awh.
19 The winde hath bounde them vp in her wings, and they shalbe ashamed of their sacrifices.
Kahlî ni kamlengkhai vaiteh, amae thuengnae hnonaw kecu dawk a kaya awh han.
