Hosea 8
1 Set the horn to thy mouth. As a vulture he cometh against the house of the LORD; because they have transgressed My covenant, and trespassed against My law.
“Pakai mite douna-a, galmite muvanlai banga hung ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon kakitepna asukehun ahi. Chule ka danthu dounan asukhel taove.
2 Will they cry unto Me: 'My God, we Israel know Thee'?
Ka Pathen keihon nangma kaheuve, tia Israel chu kaheng lama hungpeng ding ahi.
3 Israel hath cast off that which is good; the enemy shall pursue him.
Ahinlah tun ageisangtai, kami Israelten thilpha adeipouve.
4 They have set up kings, but not from Me, they have made princes, and I knew it not; of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.
Keimaa kon hilouvin, amahon lengho akitun dohuvin, apipui ho akisemun, hichu keiman kahephapoi. Paidoha aum nadiuvin, adangka le a sana houvin, milim akisemun ahi.
5 Thy calf, O Samaria, is cast off; Mine anger is kindled against them; how long will it be ere they attain to innocency?
Vo Samaria nabong nouvin nangma napampai ahitan, Kalung hanna nangma douna-a koudoh ahitai. Monabei ahina dingu chu itihchan hinalai dingham?
6 For from Israel is even this: the craftsman made it, and it is no God; yea, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in shivers.
Ajeh chu Israel a kona jong chuti ahi, khutthem miho thilsem ahin, Hijeh chun Pathen ahipoi, chuleh Samaria bongnou chu ahal halla kisuchip ding ahi.
7 For they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind; it hath no stalk, the bud that shall yield no meal; if so be it yield, strangers shall swallow it up.
Amahon hui chu muchi tua atu-u ahin, chimpei akiat dingu ahi. Hichun kung aneipon, adon jong chun nehding agadoh sah theilou ahi.
8 Israel is swallowed up; now are they become among the nations as a vessel wherein is no value.
Israel mite vallhumin aumtai, tun amaho chu vannoiya chiding namdang ho lah-a lunglhaina umloubeh tobang hiding ahitauve.
9 For they are gone up to Assyria, like a wild ass alone by himself; Ephraim hath hired lovers.
Ejeh inem itile amaho gamlaha sangan chang lhat bangin Assyria mite heng lama achetouvun ahi. Ephraim in kideipi din aki thalahe. Israel mite hi amale ama kijoh ahiuvin, angailut miho koma kijoh ahiuve.
10 Yea, though they hire among the nations, now will I gather them up; and they begin to be minished by reason of the burden of king and princes.
Ahinlah mi tamtah ho koma kijoh jongleu, nikhatle ka puikhom ding ahi.
11 For Ephraim hath multiplied altars to sin, yea, altars have been unto him to sin.
Israel in chonset pomang dingin maicham tampi asem jeh'in, maicham ho chu ama dinga chonsetna ding joh ahung hitai.
12 Though I write for him never so many things of My Law, they are accounted as a stranger's.
Dan tamtah kapeh vang'in, hiche ho chu hepha lou bangin angaitoi.
13 As for the sacrifices that are made by fire unto Me, let them sacrifice flesh and eat it, for the LORD accepteth them not. Now will He remember their iniquity, and punish their sins; they shall return to Egypt.
Israel miten gan-kilhaina thilto angailuvin, ahinlah hichu keidin pannabei ahi.
14 For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and builded palaces, and Judah hath multiplied fortified cities; but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the castles thereof.
Israel in asempa asumilin, in thupitah tah asan, chule Judan kulpi nei khopi apunsah in ahi. Hijeh a chu keiman khopi ho chunga mei kasol ding, hichun, aleng inpihou akah chai ding ahi.
