Hosea 10
1 Israel is an empty vine, he bringeth forth fruit unto himself: according to the multitude of his fruit he hath increased the altars; according to the goodness of his land they have made goodly images.
Israël se yon pye rezen byen fètil; li pwodwi fwi pou pwòp tèt li. Selon kantite fwi li te genyen, li te miltipliye lotèl li yo. Selon bonte a peyi yo a, yo te fè pilye sakre.
2 Their heart is divided; now shall they be found faulty: he shall break down their altars, he shall spoil their images.
Kè yo vin divize. Koulye a, yo gen pou pote pwòp koupabilite yo. SENYÈ a va kraze lotèl yo. Li va detwi pilye sakre yo.
3 For now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not YHWH; what then should a king do to us?
Anverite, koulye a yo va di: “Nou pa gen wa, paske nou pa krent SENYÈ a. Epi wa a, se kisa li ka fè pou nou?”
4 They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: thus judgment springeth up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.
Se sèlman pawòl ke yo pale, ak fo sèman pou fè akò. Donk jijman yo pete leve tankou zèb k ap anpwazone nan tras chan yo.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria shall fear because of the calves of Bethaven: for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the priests thereof that rejoiced on it, for the glory thereof, because it is departed from it.
Pèp Samarie yo va gen lakrent akoz jenn bèf Beth-Aven nan. Anverite, pèp li a va fè lamantasyon pou li, ak prèt zidòl yo k ap kriye pou li, pou glwa li, akoz sa fin ale kite li nèt.
6 It shall be also carried unto Assyria for a present to king Jareb: Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel.
Sa va pote ale osi an Assyrie pou fè omaj a Wa Jareb. Éphraïm va resevwa lawont, e Israël va vin wont de pwòp konsèy li.
7 As for Samaria, her king is cut off as the foam upon the water.
Pou Samarie, wa li a va vin peri tankou ti bout bwa Ki parèt sou fas dlo.
8 The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.
Anplis, wo plas Aven yo, peche Israël la, va vin detwi. Pikan ak raje va grandi sou lotèl yo. Yo va di a mòn yo: “Kouvri nou!” E a kolin yo: “Vin tonbe sou nou.”
9 O Israel, thou hast sinned from the days of Gibeah: there they stood: the battle in Gibeah against the children of iniquity did not overtake them.
O Israël! Depi nan jou a Guibea yo, ou te peche. Se la yo te kanpe! Ni batay kont fis inikite yo pa t kite yo nan Guibea.
10 It is in my desire that I should chastise them; and the people shall be gathered against them, when they shall bind themselves in their two furrows.
Lè se volonte Mwen, Mwen va bay yo chatiman. Konsa, pèp yo va vin rasanble kont yo lè yo mare nèt nan koupabilite doub yo.
11 And Ephraim is as an heifer that is taught, and loveth to tread out the corn; but I passed over upon her fair neck: I will make Ephraim to ride; Judah shall plow, and Jacob shall break his clods.
Éphraïm se yon gazèl bèf byen antrene ki renmen foule grenn nan, men Mwen va pase jouk la sou bèl kou li a. Mwen va mete yon kavalye sou Éphraïm. Juda va raboure. Jacob va repase pou kraze bol tè a.
12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek YHWH, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.
Simen a nou menm anvè ladwati, rekòlte selon ladousè. Fann tè ki poze ou a; se lè pou chache SENYÈ a jis lè Li vin vide ladwati sou nou.
13 Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies: because thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men.
Nou te raboure mechanste; nou te rekòlte lenjistis. Nou te manje fwi manti a, akoz nou te mete konfyans nou nan chemen nou, nan fòs kantite gèrye pisan nou yo.
14 Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy people, and all thy fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Betharbel in the day of battle: the mother was dashed in pieces upon her children.
Akoz sa, yon gran gè va leve pami pèp nou an e tout fòterès nou yo va detwi, tankou Schalman te detwi Beth-Arbel nan jou batay la, lè manman an te kraze an mòso ak pitit li yo.
15 So shall Bethel do unto you because of your great wickedness: in a morning shall the king of Israel utterly be cut off.
Konsa li va ye pou nou menm nan Bétel akoz gwo Mechanste nou yo. Bonè nan maten, wa Israël la va vin detwi nèt.
