Hosea 9
1 Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as [other] people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor.
Kik umor, yaye Israel; bende kik ubed gi ilo kaka ogendini mamoko. Nimar ok usebedo jo-adiera ne Nyasachu; usehero chudo mar ochot michulougo, e kuonde dino cham.
2 The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail in her.
Kuonde ma idinoe cham kod kuonde mibiyoe divai ok nopidh ji; kendo divai manyien ok nokonygi.
3 They shall not dwell in the LORD’s land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean [things] in Assyria.
Ok ginidongʼ e piny Jehova Nyasaye; Efraim nodog Misri, kendo ginicham chiemo ma ok opwodhi e piny Asuria.
4 They shall not offer wine [offerings] to the LORD, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices [shall be] unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of the LORD.
Ok gini olne Jehova Nyasaye misango mar divai, bende misengini ma gichiwo ok nomor Jehova Nyasaye ngangʼ. Misengini machalo kamano nochal negi mana kaka chiemb joma ywak; kendo jogo mochamogi nobed mogak. Chiemoni nobed margi giwegi; omiyo ok nokele e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
5 What will ye do in the solemn day, and in the day of the feast of the LORD?
Unutim angʼo e odiechiengu mowal mar nyasi, kata ka odiechienge nyasi mar Jehova Nyasaye ochopo?
6 For, lo, they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant [places] for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns [shall be] in their tabernacles.
Kata ka gitony e kethruok, Misri nochokgi, kendo Memfis noikgi. Mwandu mag fedha noum gi pedo kendo kuthe noum hembegi.
7 The days of visitation are come, the days of recompence are come; Israel shall know [it: ] the prophet [is] a fool, the spiritual man [is] mad, for the multitude of thine iniquity, and the great hatred.
Kinde mag kum biro kendo kinde mag ngʼado bura osechopo. Omiyo jo-Israel nyaka ngʼe wachni. Nikech richou ngʼeny kendo kinyou lich miwuoro, janabi ikwano ka ngʼama ofuwo, to ngʼat matiyo gi much Nyasaye ka janeko.
8 The watchman of Ephraim [was] with my God: [but] the prophet [is] a snare of a fowler in all his ways, [and] hatred in the house of his God.
Janabi, kaachiel gi Nyasacha e jarit mar Efraim, kata kamano obadho rite e yorene duto, kendo akweda bende rite e od Nyasache.
9 They have deeply corrupted [themselves], as in the days of Gibeah: [therefore] he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.
Gisedonjo matut e timbe mag miganga mana ka ndalo mag Gibea. Nyasaye nopar timbegi mamono kendo enokumgi e richogi.
10 I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the firstripe in the fig tree at her first time: [but] they went to Baal-peor, and separated themselves unto [that] shame; and [their] abominations were according as they loved.
“Kane ayudo Israel ne ochalo mana kayudo olemb mzabibu e piny motwo, kane aneno kwereu, ne chalo mana ka gima aneno olemo monyak mokwongo mar ngʼowu. To kane gibiro Baal Peor, negichiwore lamo nyiseche manono makwodo wich, kendo negibedo modwanyore mana ka gima ne giherono.
11 [As for] Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.
Duongʼ mar Efraim noweye mana ka winyo ma huyo mi lal nono, omiyo ok ginichak ginywol nyithindo, mondegi ok nobed ma yach kendo onge nyathi manomak ichne.
12 Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, [that there shall] not [be] a man [left: ] yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!
Kata ka gipidho nyithindo, to namigi gibed gi kuyo kuom moro ka moro. Okwongʼ-gi, ka alokora mi ajwangʼogi!
13 Ephraim, as I saw Tyrus, [is] planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer.
Aseneno Efraim, mana kaka ne aneno Turo, ka opidhi kama omiyo, to Efraim nokel nyithinde ni janek.”
14 Give them, O LORD: what wilt thou give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
Chiwnegi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, en angʼo ma dimigi? Migi mana iye magore piny kendo thunde motwo.
15 All their wickedness [is] in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of mine house, I will love them no more: all their princes [are] revolters.
“Nikech timbegi mag anjawo e Gilgal, ne ok aherogi kanyo. Nikech timbegi mag richo, abiro riembgi oko e oda. Ok anachak ahergi; jotendgi duto gin joma timbegi richo.
16 Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay [even] the beloved [fruit] of their womb.
Midekre osemako Efraim, kendo tiendene ner, ok ginyag olemo. Kata ka ginywolo nyithindo, to ananeg nyithindgi ma gihero ahinyago.”
17 My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
Nyasacha nokwedgi nikech ok gisewinje, ginibedi joma tangni e dier ogendini.
