< Hosea 8 >

1 [Set] the trumpet to thy mouth. [He shall come] as an eagle against the house of the LORD, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law.
E KAU i ka pu ma kou waha, Me he aeto la e hele ku e mai i ka hale o Iehova; No ka mea, ua hai ia lakou kuu berita, A ua ae lakou maluna o ko'u kanawai.
2 Israel shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee.
E kahea mai auanei ka Iseraela ia'u, E kuu Akua, ua ike makou ia oe.
3 Israel hath cast off [the thing that is] good: the enemy shall pursue him.
Ua haalele ka Iseraela i ka mea maikai: E hahai auanei ka enemi ia ia.
4 They have set up kings, but not by 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.
Ua hoalii lakou i na alii, aole ma o'u nei; Ua hoonoho lakou i na haku a'u i ike ole ai; Ua hana lakou i ko lakou kala, a me ko lakou gula i kii no lakou, i mea e okiia'ku ai lakou.
5 Thy calf, O Samaria, hath cast [thee] off; mine anger is kindled against them: how long [will it be] ere they attain to innocency?
He mea hoopailua kou keikibipi, e Samaria. Ua hoaaia kuu inaina ia lakou: Pehea la ka loihi a loaa ia lakou ka maemae?
6 For from Israel [was] it also: the workman made it; therefore it [is] not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
No ka mea, na ka Iseraela keia mea; Na ka paahana no ia i hana; Aole ia he akua: No ka mea, e haki liilii ia ke keikibipi o Samaria.
7 For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it hath no stalk: the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.
No ka mea, ua lulu lakou i ka makani, A e ohi auanei lakou i ka puahiohio: Aohe kino o ka ai e ku ana; Aole hoi e hua mai ka opuu i ka hua palaoa: Ina paha e hua mai, na ka poe malihini e hoopau ia mea.
8 Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein [is] no pleasure.
Ua hoopauia ka Iseraela: A e like auanei lakou iwaena o ko na aina e, me he ipu la I makemake ole ia.
9 For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath hired lovers.
No ka mea, ua pii ae la lakou i Asuria, me he hoki hihiu, oia wale no! Ua hoolimalima o Eperaima i na mea aloha.
10 Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.
Ua hoolimalima hoi lakou iwaena o na lahuikanaka e, ano e hoakoakoa nae au ia lakou; A e anwe iki lakou no ke kaumaha o ke alii o na haku.
11 Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin.
No ka mea, ua hoomahuahua o Eperaima i na kuahu no ka hewa, A e lilo na kuahu nona e hewa ai.
12 I have written to him the great things of my law, [but] they were counted as a strange thing.
Ua kakau aku au nona i na mea nui o kuu kanawai, Aka, ua manaoia ua mau mea la, me he mea e la.
13 They sacrifice flesh [for] the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat [it; but] the LORD accepteth them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
I ke kaumaha ana i kuu mau mohai, ua kaumaha aku lakou i ka io, a ai iho la; Aole i oluolu o Iehova ia lakou; Ano e ho manao oia i ko lakou hala; A e hoopai hoi i ko lakou hewa: A e hoi hou lakou i Aigupita.
14 For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
No ka mea, ua hoopoina o ka Iseraela i ka Mea nana ia I hana, a ua hana aku i na hale hoomana; A ua hoomahuahua o ka Iuda i na kulanakauhale i paa i ka papohaku: A e hoouna aku au i ke ahi iloko o kona mau kulanakauhale; A e ai aku ia i kona mau halealii.
