Osee 11
1 Early in the morning were they cast off, the king of Israel has been cast off: for Israel is a child, and I loved him, and out of Egypt have I called his children.
Israel khaw camoe dae anih te ka lungnah tih Egypt lamloh kamah ca la ka khue coeng.
2 As I called them, so they departed from my presence: they sacrificed to Baalim, and burnt incense to graven images.
Amih te a khue uh dongah amih mikhmuh lamloh cet uh. Baal taengah a nawn uh tih mueidaep taengah phum uh.
3 Yet I bound the feet of Ephraim, I took him on my arm; but they knew not that I healed them.
Kai loh Ephraim te caeh ka tuk. Amih te a ban ah ka mawt dae amih ka hoeih sak te a ming uh moenih.
4 When men were destroyed, I drew them with the bands of my love: and I will be to them as a man striking [another] on his cheek: and I will have respect to him, I will prevail with him.
Amih te hlang kah rhuihet neh, lungnah rhuivaeh neh ka mawt. Amih taengah amih kam lamkah hnamkun aka suh pah la ka om. Te dongah ka yueng uh tih anih te ka cah.
5 Ephraim lived in Egypt; and [as for] the Assyrian, he was his king, because he would not return.
Mael hamla a aal uh dongah Egypt khohmuen la mael pawt vetih Assyria te a manghai nah ni.
6 And in his cities he prevailed not with the sword, and he ceased [to war] with his hands: and they shall eat [of the fruit] of their own devices:
A khopuei ah cunghang tinghil vetih a thohkalh a khah pah ni. A cilkhih te a dolh pah ni.
7 and his people [shall] cleave fondly to their habitation; but God shall be angry with his precious things, and shall not at all exalt him.
Ka pilnam khaw kai lamloh hnuknong la kingkaek coeng. Amah te a sosang la a khue akhaw huek a pomsang uh moenih.
8 How shall I deal with you, Ephraim? [how] shall I protect you, Israel? what shall I do with you? I will make you as Adama, and as Seboim; my heart is turned at once, my repentance is powerfully excited.
Ephraim nang te metlam kang khueh eh? Israel nang te metlam kan tloeng eh? Nang te Admah bangla kang khueh nim? Nang te Zeboiim bangla kang khueh nim? Ka lungbuei he ka khuiah a maelh tih kai kah hloephoelhnah khaw rhenten tloo.
9 I will not act according to the fury of my wrath, I will not abandon Ephraim to be utterly destroyed: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One within you: and I will not enter into the city.
Ka thintoek thinsa neh ka saii mahpawh. Ephraim phae ham khaw ka mael mahpawh. Kai tah Pathen tih hlang moenih. Na khui ah ka cim tih khopuei ah ka kun mahpawh.
10 I will go after the Lord: he shall utter [his voice] as a lion: for he shall roar, and the children of the waters shall be amazed.
BOEIPA hnukah sathueng bangla pongpa uh vetih kawk ni. Anih a kawk van neh khotlak lamkah camoe rhoek lakueng uh.
11 They shall be amazed [and fly] as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of the Assyrians: and I will restore them to their houses, says the Lord.
Egypt lamkah vaa neh Assyria khohmuen lamkah vahui bangla lakueng uh ni. Te vaengah amih te amamih im ah ka om sak ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
12 Ephraim has compassed me with falsehood, and the house of Israel and Juda with ungodliness: [but] now God knows them, and they shall be called God's holy people.
Kai he Ephraim kah laithae nen khaw, Israel im kah thailatnah nen khaw m'vael uh. Judah tah Pathen taengah van tih a cim te a tangnah pueng.
