Hosea 13
1 When Ephraim spoke, there was trembling, he exalted himself in Israel; but when he became guilty through Baal, he died.
Ephraim ni a dei toteh, ayânaw ni a taki awh. Ahni teh Isarelnaw thung dawk ka talue e lah ao. Hatei, Baal bawknae koe a rawp toteh a due.
2 And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, according to their own understanding, even idols, all of them the work of the craftsmen; of them they say: 'They that sacrifice men kiss calves.'
Atuvah hoehoe a yon awh teh, mae thoumnae lahoi hlun e ngun kutsak, hahoi amamouh thoum e patetlah meikaphawknaw hah amamouh hanelah a sak awh. Hottelah a sak awh hnukkhu thuengnae ka sak e tami teh maitoca hah pahnuem seh a kâti awh.
3 Therefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the dew that early passeth away, as the chaff that is driven with the wind out of the threshing-floor, and as the smoke out of the window.
Hatdawkvah ahnimouh teh, amom e tâmai patetlah tang kamyawt e tadamtui patetlah cangkatinnae koe e bongparui ni a palek e cahik patetlah takhuen koehoi ka tâcawt e hmaikhu patetlah ao awh.
4 Yet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt; and thou knowest no God but Me, and beside Me there is no saviour.
Hatei, kai teh, Izip ram hoi nangmouh kahlout sak e nangmae Jehovah Cathut lah ka o. Kai hloilah alouke Cathut hah nang ni na panuek hoeh. Kai hloilah rungngangkung Bawi awm hoeh.
5 I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought.
Thingyei yawn hoi kâan poung e ramke ram dawk patenghai nang hah na pahnim hoeh. Kaboumlah na paca toe.
6 When they were fed, they became full, they were filled, and their heart was exalted; therefore have they forgotten Me.
Na boum awh toteh, na kâoup awh. Kai hah na pahnim awh.
7 Therefore am I become unto them as a lion; as a leopard will I watch by the way;
Hatdawkvah, ahnimouh koe Kai teh, sendek patetlah ka o pouh han. Lam teng ka pawm e kaisi patetlah ahnimanaw hah ka pawp han.
8 I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the enclosure of their heart; and there will I devour them like a lioness; the wild beast shall tear them.
A ca kahmat e tavom patetlah ahnimanaw hah ka taba vaiteh, a thabuem totouh ka phi pouh han. Sendek manu patetlah ka hmunae koe raw vah, ka kei han. Sarang lah ka o dawkvah, vekrasen lah ka phi han.
9 It is thy destruction, O Israel, that thou art against Me, against thy help.
Oe Isarel, nang kabawmkung Kai hah na taran dawkvah, na rawk awh toe.
10 Ho, now, thy king, that he may save thee in all thy cities! and thy judges, of whom thou saidst: 'Give me a king and princes!'
Na siangpahrang teh nâne ao. Na onae khopueng dawk na rungngang haw seh. Nange lawkcengkungnaw teh nâne ao awh.
11 I give thee a king in Mine anger, and take him away in My wrath.
Siangpahrang hoi bawinaw na poe loe titeh na hei awh dawkvah, ka lungkhuek teh, siangpahrang hah na poe awh toe. Hahoi, puenghoi ka lungkhuek dawkvah, siangpahrang hah bout ka takhoe toe.
12 The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is laid up in store.
Ephraim ni a sak e yonnae hah ka tangoung teh, a yonnae hah ka pâtung pouh toe.
13 The throes of a travailing woman shall come upon him; he is an unwise son; for it is time he should not tarry in the place of the breaking forth of children.
Ahni teh, camo ka khe e napui patetlah runae a kâhmo nahane atueng a hnai toe. Ahni teh, ka pathu e capa lah ao. Khe tue a pha navah, khe thai laipalah vonthung ka saw lah ao.
14 Shall I ransom them from the power of the nether-world? Shall I redeem them from death? Ho, thy plagues, O death! Ho, thy destruction, O nether-world! Repentance be hid from Mine eyes! (Sheol h7585)
Ahnimouh hah, phuen thaonae dawk hoi ka ratang vaiteh, duenae dawk hoi ka hlout sak han. Oe, duenae nange pali patawnae lah na o teh, Oe, phuen nange rawknae lah ka o sak han. Pan ka ngai nahanlah banglahai na ngai hoeh. (Sheol h7585)
15 For though he be fruitful among the reed-plants, an east wind shall come, the wind of the LORD coming up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up; he shall spoil the treasure of all precious vessels.
Ma e hmaunawngha koe teh, a paw na paw awh eiteh, Kanîtholae kahlî teh thingyei yawn koehoi tho vaiteh, sawkcanaw a hak han. Tuikhunaw remphui han. Hno pâkhuengnae im dawk e hnopai aphu kaawm naw teh, taran ni na lawp awh han.
16 Samaria shall bear her guilt, for she hath rebelled against her God; they shall fall by the sword; their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up.
Samaria kho teh, a Cathut a taran dawkvah, a rawk han. Khocanaw teh, tahloi hoi a rawp awh vaiteh, a due awh han. Camonaw teh talai dawk rekreksuk vaiteh, camo kavawnnaw e von hah a khei pouh awh han.
