Hosea 5
1 “Hear this, O priests, and attend, O house of Israel, And, O house of the king, give ear, For the judgment [is] for you, For you have been a snare on Mizpah, And a net spread out on Tabor.
Inao, ry mpisoroñeo, mitsendreña ry anjomba’ Israeleo, manokilaña ravembia ry anjomba’ i mpanjakay, fa ama’ areo i zakay; amy t’ie fandrik’ amy Mitspà naho harato nalafike ho amy Tabore;
2 And to slaughter sinners have gone deep, And I [am] a chain to them all.
vaho mpiola miheotse t’ie mandenta ndra te nendahako.
3 I have known Ephraim, And Israel has not been hid from Me, For now you have gone whoring, Ephraim, Israel is defiled.
Fàntako t’i Efraime naho tsy mietak’ amako t’Israele; fa manao hakarapiloan-drehe Efraime, vaho maleotse t’Israele.
4 They do not give up their habitual doings, To turn back to their God, For a spirit of whoredoms [is] in their midst, And YHWH they have not known.
Tsy ho safirie’ iareo ty himpoly aman’Añahare’ iareo; fa añivo’ iareo ao ty fañahin-kakarapiloañe, vaho tsy fohi’ iereo t’Iehovà.
5 And humbled has been the excellence of Israel to his face, And Israel and Ephraim stumble by their iniquity, Judah has also stumbled with them.
Mitalily an-dahara’e ty fiebotsebora’ Israele; toly ndra hitsikapy an-kakèo t’Israele naho i Efraime; hiharo hihotrak’ am’ iereo ka t’Iehodà.
6 With their flock and with their herd, They go to seek YHWH, and do not find, He has withdrawn from them.
Hendese’ iereo ty lia-rai’ iareo naho o mpirai-tro’ iareoo ho paia’ iereo t’Iehovà, fe tsy ho oniñe, fa nisitake.
7 Against YHWH they dealt treacherously, For they have begotten strange sons, Now a month consumes them [with] their portions.
Fa niola am’ Iehovà iereo, naho nahatoly anak’amontoñe; aa le habotse’ ty pea-bolañe reke-panañañe.
8 Blow a horn in Gibeah, a trumpet in Ramah, Shout, O Beth-Aven, after you, O Benjamin.
Tiofo e Gibà i antsivay naho e Ramà i soliy; koiho e Bet’avene ty hankàñe: mitoliha ry Beniamine.
9 Ephraim is for a desolation in a day of reproof, I have made known a sure thing among the tribes of Israel.
Ho koaheñe t’i Efraime amy andro fandilovañey; fa nampahafohineko o fifokoa’ Israeleo ze toe hifetsake.
10 Princes of Judah have been as those removing a border, I pour out My wrath as water on them.
Manahake ty mpameve vorovoro o roandria’ Iehodào; hadoandoako am’ iereo hoe rano ty habosehako.
11 Ephraim is oppressed, broken in judgment, When he pleased he went after the command.
Forekekèñe t’i Efraime demok’ an-jaka; ie nañorike haloloañe an-tsatri’e.
12 And I [am] as a moth to Ephraim, And as a rotten thing to the house of Judah.
Aa le ho bararaok’ amy Efraime iraho, naho haloloañe amy anjomba’ Iehodày.
13 And Ephraim sees his sickness, and Judah his wound, And Ephraim goes to Asshur, And sends to a warlike king, And he is not able to give healing to you, Nor does he remove a scar from you.
Ie nahaoniñe i arete’ey t’i Efraime, naho i fere’ey t’Iehodà, le nihitrike mb’ Asorey mb’eo, naho nisangitrife’e i mpanjaka Iaribey; f’ie tsy hahajangañ’ azo, vaho tsy ho melañe’e i fere’oy.
14 For I [am] as a lion to Ephraim, And as a young lion to the house of Judah, I tear and go, I carry away, and there is no deliverer.
Ho liona amy Efraime iraho, naho liona tora’e amy anjomba’ Iehodày; Izaho le Izaho avao ty handrimitse vaho hienga; hinday iraho le ia ty haharombake.
15 I go—I return to My place, Until they are desolate, and have sought My face. In their distress they seek Me speedily!”
Homb’eo iraho himpoly mb’añ’akibako añe, ampara’ t’ie miantoke o hakeo’eo, naho mipay ty tareheko; ie am-poheke ro hitsoek’ahy.
