Hosea 9
1 Rejoice not, O Israel for ioy as other people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God: thou hast loued a rewarde vpon euery corne floore.
Wee Isiraeli-rĩ, tiga gũkena; tiga gũkũngũĩra ta ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ. Nĩgũkorwo ũkoretwo ũtarĩ mwĩhokeku harĩ Ngai waku; wee nĩwendete mũcaara wa maraya, ũkaũcaragia kũrĩa guothe kũhuhagĩrwo ngano.
2 The floore, and the wine presse shall not feede them, and the newe wine shall faile in her.
Ihuhĩro cia ngano na ihihĩro cia ndibei itikahũũnia andũ, o na gũtigakorwo na ndibei ya mũhihano.
3 They wil not dwel in the Lordes lande, but Ephraim will returne to Egypt, and they will eate vncleane things in Asshur.
Matigaatũũra bũrũri wa Jehova; Efiraimu agaacooka bũrũri wa Misiri, na arĩe irio irĩ thaahu kũu Ashuri.
4 They shall not offer wine to the Lord, neither shall their sacrifices be pleasant vnto him: but they shall be vnto them as the bread of mourners: al that eate thereof, shalbe polluted: for their bread for their soules shall not come into the house of the Lord.
Matigaitĩra Jehova maruta ma ndibei, kana magongona mao mamũkenie. Kũrĩo magongona ta macio makaahaana ta mũgate wa andũ megũcakaya; arĩa othe makaamarĩa nĩmakanyiitwo nĩ thaahu. Irio icio igaakorwo irĩ ciao o ene; itikareehwo hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
5 What wil ye do then in the solemne day, and in the day of the feast of the Lord?
Mũgeeka atĩa mũthenya ũrĩa mwamũre wa ciathĩ cianyu, mĩthenya ĩyo ya gĩathĩ kĩa Jehova?
6 For loe, they are gone from destruction: but Egypt shall gather them vp, and Memphis shall burie them: the nettle shall possesse the pleasant places of their siluer, and the thorne shall be in their tabernacles.
O na mangĩkaahonoka kwanangwo, andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri nĩmakamacookereria, nao andũ a Memufisi mamathike. Congʼe nĩguo ũgaacooka handũ ha igĩĩna ciao cia betha, nayo mĩigua ĩhumbĩre hema ciao.
7 The daies of visitation are come: the daies of recompence are come: Israel shall knowe it: the Prophet is a foole: the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of thine iniquitie: therefore the hatred is great.
Matukũ ma kũherithio nĩmakinyu, ĩĩ, matukũ ma kũrĩhania nĩmakinyĩte. Isiraeli nĩamenye ũguo. Tondũ mehia manyu nĩ maingĩ mũno, na rũmena rwanyu rũkaneneha mũno, mũnabii akoonagwo arĩ mũndũ mũkĩĩgu, na mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ na ũrathi akonwo arĩ mũgũrũki.
8 The watchman of Ephraim shoulde bee with my God: but the Prophet is the snare of a fouler in all his waies, and hatred in the House of his God.
Mũnabii nĩwe ũtuĩtwo mũrangĩri wa Efiraimu nĩ Ngai wakwa; no rĩrĩ, mĩtego ĩmwetereire njĩra-inĩ ciake ciothe, na rũmena rũkamweterera nyũmba-inĩ ya Ngai wake.
9 They are deepely set: they are corrupt as in the daies of Gibeah: therefore he will remember their iniquitie, he will visite their sinnes.
Nĩmatoonyereire, makarikĩra mũno ũũru-inĩ, o ta ũrĩa meekire matukũ-inĩ ma Gibea. Nake Ngai nĩakaririkana waganu wao, na amaherithie nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao.
10 I found Israel like grapes in the wildernes: I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the figge tree at her first time: but they went to Baal-Peor, and separated themselues vnto that shame, and their abominations were according to their louers.
“Rĩrĩa ndaamenyire Isiraeli, kwarĩ ta mũndũ onete thabibũ werũ-inĩ; rĩrĩa ndonire maithe manyu-rĩ, kwarĩ ta mũndũ onete matunda ma mũtĩ wa mũkũyũ marĩa maambaga kwĩrua. No rĩrĩa Isiraeli mookire Baali-Peoru, nĩmeyamũrĩire mũhianano ũcio wa gĩconoko, na magĩthũka, magĩtuĩka o ta kĩndũ kĩu mendete.
11 Ephraim their glorie shall flee away like a birde: from the birth and from the wombe, and from the conception.
Riiri wa Efiraimu ũkoombũka ta nyoni ũũre: gũtigakorwo ũhoro wa gũciara, kana gũkuua nda, o na kana kũgĩa nda.
12 Though they bring vp their children, yet I will depriue them from being men: yea, woe to them, when I depart from them.
O na mangĩkaarera ciana-rĩ, nĩngaciũraga ciothe. Rĩrĩa ngaagarũrũka ndĩmatige, kaĩ nĩmagakorwo na haaro-ĩ!
13 Ephraim, as I sawe, is as a tree in Tyrus planted in a cottage: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murtherer.
Nĩnyonete Efiraimu, ahaandĩtwo handũ hega, o ta Turo. No rĩrĩ, Efiraimu akaaruta ciana ciake, acineane kũrĩ mũũragani.”
14 O Lord, giue them: what wilt thou giue them? giue them a baren wombe and drie breasts.
Mahe, Wee Jehova; no nĩ kĩĩ ũkũmahe? Mahe nda iria ihunaga, na ũmahe nyondo iria itarĩ iria.
15 All their wickednesse is in Gilgal: for there doe I hate them: for the wickednesse of their inuentions, I will cast them out of mine House: I will loue them no more: all their princes are rebels.
“Nĩ ũndũ wa waganu wao wothe marĩ kũu Giligali, nĩkĩo ndamamenire marĩ o kũu. Nĩ ũndũ wa ciĩko ciao cia mehia-rĩ, nĩngamarutũrũra moime nyũmba yakwa, na ndigacooka kũmenda rĩngĩ; atongoria ao othe nĩ aremi.
16 Ephraim is smitten, their roote is dried vp: they can bring no fruite: yea, though they bring foorth, yet will I slaie euen the dearest of their bodie.
Andũ a Efiraimu nĩacine nĩ mbaa, naguo mũri wao nĩũhoohete, maticiaraga maciaro. O na mangĩciara ciana-rĩ, nĩngooraga ciana icio ciao mendete.”
17 My God will cast them away, because they did not obey him: and they shall wander among the nations.
Ngai wakwa nĩakamarega, nĩgũkorwo matiamwathĩkĩire; magaatuĩka andũ a kũũrũũraga ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ.
