< Hosea 12 >

1 Ephraim feedeth on wind, and pursueth the east wind; the whole day he increaseth deceit and corruption; and a covenant do they make with Assyria, and oil is carried into Egypt.
Hawa: hamosu huluane Isala: ili dunu da hahabe ganini asili gasia hamobe, da hamedei amola wadela: idafa ba: sa. Lelesu hou amola gugunufinisisu hou da bagade heda: sa. Ilia da Asilia fi ilima gousa: su hamosa, amola Idibidi fi ilima bidi lasu hou hamosa.”
2 But with Judah also hath the Lord [to hold] a controversy; and to punish Jacob according to his ways, according to his doings will he recompense him.
Hina Gode da Yuda fi ilima diwaneya udidimu gala. Amola Isala: ili fi ilia hamobeba: le, E da ilima se dabe imunu. Ilia hamobeba: le, E da ilima dabemu.
3 In the womb he took his brother by the heel, and in his strength he strove with an angel.
Ilia aowalalia eda Ya: igobe amola Iso ela da gilisili ela ame ea hagomo ganodini esala, ela da ludui. Ya: igobe da asigilaloba, e da Godema ludui.
4 Yea, he strove with an angel, and prevailed; he wept, and made supplication unto him: in Beth-el he should find him, and there he will speak with us.
E da a: igele dunuma luduli, osa: le heda: i. E da dinanu, a:igele dunu ema hahawane dogolegele ima: ne adole ba: i. Amola Bedele sogega, Gode da ninia aowalali dunu Ya: igobe ema misini, ema sia: i.
5 And the Lord God of hosts, the Eternal One is his memorial.
Amo Gode da Hina Gode Bagadedafa. Ninia da Ema nodone sia: ne gadosea, Hina Gode Dio amoga sia: ne gadoma: mu.
6 Therefore do thou return to thy God: keep goodness and justice, and wait on thy God continually.
Amaiba: le, dilia Ya: igobe egaga fi! Dilia Gode Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: ma, amola Ema sinidigima! Ema madela: gili, moloidafa hou hamoma. Amola Gode Ea hawa: hamosu ba: ma: ne, gebewane ouesaloma.
7 But like a merchant, who hath the balances of deceit in his hand, loving to overreach,
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili dunu da Ga: ina: ne dunu defele, gigiadofasu hou hamonana. Ilia da hanaiba: le ilima bidi lasu dunu ilima ogogosa. Ilia dioi defei ba: su liligi da giadofale dioi defei olelesa.
8 Did Ephraim say, I am certainly become rich, I have acquired substance unto myself: it is all through my labors; they will find no iniquity in me, that could be sin.
Ilia da amane sia: sa, ‘Defea! Ninia da bagade gagui gala. Amola ninia da dunu eno ilima liligi ogogole bidilaiba: le, ilia da ninima diwaneya udidimu da hamedei.’
9 And I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt: I will yet make thee dwell in tents, as in the days of antiquity.
Be Na, dilia Hina Gode, Na da dili Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, ga oule misi. Amola, dilia da hafoga: i soge ganodini, abula diasuga esalea, Na da dilima misi. Na hamomuba: le, dilia da bu abula diasu ganodini esalebe ba: mu.
10 And I have spoken through the prophets, and I myself have multiplied visions, and by the means of the prophets have I spoken in similitudes.
Na da balofede dunu ilima sia: ne, ilima esala ba: su bagohame amoga olelei. Ilia lafidili, Na da Na fi dunuma sisasu bagohame olelei.
11 If in Gil'ad there was misfortune, [it is because] there was naught but idolatry; in Gilgal they sacrificed bullocks [to idols]: their altars also are as stone-heaps on the furrows of the fields.
Be dilia da Gilia: de sogega, loboga hamoi ogogole ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadolala. Amo hou hamosu dunu da bogosu ba: mu. Dilia da bulamagau gawali Giliga: le sogega gobele sala. Be amogawi, oloda huluane da ma: buale, igi fawane gegedole legei ba: mu.”
12 And Jacob fled into the fields of Syria, and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept [the flocks].
Ninia aowalali eda, Ya: igobe, da hemonega Mesoubouda: imia sogega hobea: i. Amogawi, e da uda lamusa: , dunu eno ea sibi ouligisu hawa: hamosu.
13 And by a prophet did the Lord bring Israel out of Egypt, and by a prophet was he guarded.
Hina Gode da Isala: ili dunu Idibidi soge ganodini udigili hawa: hamonana esalu, amo gaga: ma: ne amola ouligima: ne, balofede dunu asunasi.
14 [Yet] Ephraim provoked [him] to anger most bitterly: therefore will his Lord cast his blood-guiltiness upon him, and his reproach will he recompense unto him.
Isala: ili dunu ilia hamobeba: le, Hina Gode da ougi bagade gala. Ilia da wadela: le hamoiba: le, bogosu dabe lamu da defea. Ilia da Ema gogosiasu iabeba: le, Hina Gode da ilima se dabe imunu.
