Hosea 11
1 “Because Israel [is] a youth, and I love him, Out of Egypt I have called for My Son.
Ie mbe ni-ajaja t’Israele, le nikokoako vaho tinokako hiakats’ i Mitsraime i ana-dahikoy.
2 They have called to them correctly, They have gone from before them, They sacrifice to lords, And make incense to carved images.
Ie nikanjieko iereo àntsake te nihànkañe, nisoroñe amo Baaleo, vaho nañembok’ amo samposampoo.
3 And I have caused Ephraim to go on foot, Taking them by their arms, And they have not known that I strengthened them.
Izaho ty nañoke i Efraime hitekeñe, rinambeko an-tañañe, fe tsy napota’iereo te izaho ty nampijangañe.
4 I draw them with cords of man, With thick cords of love, And I am to them as a raiser up of a yoke on their jaws, And I incline to him—I feed [him].
Tinariko an-tali’ondaty, am-bahem-pikokoañe, le nanahake ty mpañaka-joka an-kàto’ iareo raho vaho finahako mora.
5 He does not return to the land of Egypt, And Asshur—he [is] his king, For they have refused to return.
Apoho himpoly mb’an-tane Mitsraime re, naho ho mpanjaka’e t’i Asore, amy t’ie mifoneñe tsy himpoly amako.
6 The sword has been grievous in his cities, And it has ended his bars, and consumed—from their own counsels.
Hininininike amo rova’eo i fibaray, handrotsake ty sakan-dala’e, naho hampibotseke, ty amy fikililia’iareo.
7 And My people are hanging in suspense about My returning, And to the Most High they call, Together they do not exalt.
Imanea’ ondatikoo ty hiola amako, ndra t’ie mikaike mb’ añ’Abo-Tia, leo raike tsy mañonjoñ’ Aze.
8 How do I give you up, O Ephraim? Do I deliver you up, O Israel? How do I make you as Admah? Do I set you as Zeboim? My heart is turned in Me, My sympathy has been kindled together.
Akore ty hampipohako azo, ry Efraime? Akore ty hanolorako azo, ry Israele? Akore te hampanahafeko amy Admà? ndra t’ie hanoeñe hoe Tsibiìme? mikoretse ty an-troko ao, naho hene niviañeñe o fiferenaiñakoo.
9 I do not do the fierceness of My anger, I do not turn back to destroy Ephraim, For I [am] God, and not a man—The Holy One in your midst, and I do not enter in enmity.
Tsy hafetsako ty hasiahan-kaviñerako, tsy hibalike mb’amy Efraime handrotsake; amy te Andrianañahare iraho, fa tsy ondaty; t’i Masiñe añivo’ areo ao; tsy ho pok’eo an-kabosehañe iraho.
10 They go after YHWH—He roars as a lion, When He roars, then the sons from the west tremble.
Hañavelo am-pañorihañe Iehovà iereo; hitroñe manahake o lionao re; aa ie mitromoroñe, le hititititike boak’ ahandrefañ’añe ty ana’dahy maro.
11 They tremble as a sparrow out of Egypt, And as a dove out of the land of Asshur, And I have caused them to dwell in their own houses,” A declaration of YHWH.
Hanahake o voroñeo ty hiborofota’ iareo boake Mitsraime añe, naho hoe deho hirik’ an-tane Asore añe; ie hapoko añ’anjomba’ iareo ao, hoe t’Iehovà.
12 “Ephraim has surrounded Me with feigning, And the house of Israel with deceit. And Judah is again ruling with God, And [is] faithful with the Holy Ones!”
Mañarikatoke ahy an-dañitse t’i Efraime, naho am-pamañahiañe ty anjomba’ Israele; Fa mbe mifehe aman’Añahare t’Iehoda, naho migahiñe amo raha miavakeo.
