< Hosea 10 >

1 “Israel [is] an empty vine, He makes fruit like to himself, According to the abundance of his fruit, He has multiplied for the altars, According to the goodness of his land, They have made good standing-pillars.
Isarel teh a paw moi kapaw e misurkung lah ao. Amahmawk ouk a paw. A paw apap e patetlah Isarelnaw ni thuengnae khoungroe apap sak awh. Aram ahawi e patetlah meikaphawknaw a catraning awh.
2 Their heart has been divided, now they are guilty, He breaks down their altars, He destroys their standing-pillars.
A lungsamphei teh yon phu khang sak lah ao awh. Ahnimae thuengnae khoungroenaw hoi meikaphawknaw hah Bawipa ni a raphoe pouh awh han.
3 For now they say: We have no king, Because we have not feared YHWH, And the king—what does he do for us?
Maimouh teh, Cathut taki awh hoeh dawkvah, siangpahrang tawn awh hoeh. Siangpahrang ao nakunghai maimouh hanlah e lah bangmouh a sak thai han vâ na ti awh.
4 They have spoken words, To swear falsehood in making a covenant, And flourished as a poisonous herb has judgment, on the furrows of a field.
Lawkkamnae a sak awh navah, lawkhrawng hoi thoe a kâbo awh teh, laithoe lawk duengdoeh a dei awh. Lawk a ceng awh navah, laikawk koe e asue kung patetlah a pâw awh.
5 For the inhabitants of Samaria fear the calves of Beth-Aven, Surely its people have mourned on account of it, And its priests leap about on account of it, Because of its glory, for it has removed from it,
Samaria khocanaw teh, Bethaven maitoca kecu dawk a puen awh. Hote maitoca bawilen nahanelah, a taminaw ni a khuika awh teh, vaihma bawinaw ni a pâyaw awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote lentoenae hah a tarannaw ni a lawp awh teh,
6 Also, it is carried to Asshur, a present to a warlike king, Ephraim receives shame, And Israel is ashamed of its own counsel.
Maitoca hoi cungtalah Assiria ram lah cetkhai awh vaiteh, siangpahrang Jareb a poe awh han. Ephraim teh, a minhmai mathout vaiteh, Isarel teh a pouknae lahoi yeirai a po han.
7 Samaria is cut off! Its king [is] as wrath on the face of the waters.
Samaria teh a rawk han. Samaria siangpahrang teh tui dawk kâlaw e tuihon lah ao han.
8 And high places of Aven have been destroyed, the sin of Israel. Thorn and bramble go up on their altars, And they have said to hills, Cover us, And to heights, Fall on us.
Isarelnaw ni meikaphawk ouk a bawk awh e Aven hmuen puenghai raphoe lah ao han. Thuengnae khoungroe dawk pâkhing hoi phonaw muen a paw han. Oe monnaw, kaimouh na ramuk haw. Oe monruinaw, kaimouh van bawt awh haw telah ati awh han.
9 From the days of Gibeah you have sinned, O Israel, There they have stood, Battle does not overtake them in Gibeah, Because of sons of perverseness.
Oe Isarel, Gibeah senah na yon e hlak hoe na yon toe. Hawvah a kangdue awh. Gibeah vah tarankâtuk navah, hawihoehnae ka sak naw hah na sung awh hoeh.
10 When I desire, then I bind them, And peoples have gathered against them, When they bind themselves to their two iniquities.
Kai ni ka mahmawk ahnimanaw hah ka yue han. Kâ a tapoe awh e kahni touh kecu dawk ka katek awh toteh, ahnimouh taran hanlah taminaw teh a kamkhueng awh han.
11 And Ephraim [is] a trained heifer—loving to thresh, And I have passed over on the goodness of its neck, I cause [one] to ride Ephraim, Judah plows, Jacob harrows for him.
Ephraim teh a mawng teh, cangkatin ngai e maitola lah ao eiteh, a lahuen dawk yawcu ka toung pouh vaiteh, Ephraim van tami kâcui sak han. Judah ni talai a thawn han, Jakop ni laitueng a pâpâwn han.
12 Sow for yourselves in righteousness, Reap according to loving-kindness, Till for yourselves tillage of knowledge, To seek YHWH, Until He comes and shows righteousness to you.
Ma hanelah, lannae cati kahei awh nateh, lungmanae a paw hah a awh haw. Tawk hoeh rae laikawk hah thawn awh. Cathut ni nangmouh lathueng vah lannae kho a rak sak hoehroukrak, Bawipa tawngnae tueng a pha toe.
13 You have plowed wickedness, Perversity you have reaped, You have eaten the fruit of lying, For you have trusted in your way, In the abundance of your might.
Nangmouh teh, yonnae cati hah na kahei awh teh, yonnae a paw hah na a awh. Laithoe paw hah na ca awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ma ni pouk e hoi mae athakaawme taminaw hah ouk kâuep awh.
14 And a tumult rises among your people, And all your fortresses are spoiled, As the spoiling of Shalman of Beth-Arbel, In a day of battle, Mother against sons dashed in pieces.
Hatdawkvah, na taminaw teh ruengrueng ati awh han. Shalman ni Betharbel kho a tuk navah a raphoe e patetlah nange rapan pueng teh, a rawk han. Manu teh a canaw hoi talai dawk rekreksuk lah ao han.
15 Thus has Beth-El done to you, Because of the evil of your wickedness, In the dawn a king of Israel is utterly cut off!”
Bethel teh, na yonnae kecu dawk hottelah a sak awh han. Amom vah Isarel siangpahrang teh khoeroe raphoe lah ao han.
