Hosea 7
1 “When I give healing to Israel, Then the iniquity of Ephraim is revealed, And the wickedness of Samaria, For they have worked falsehood, And a thief comes in, A troop has stripped off in the street,
I KA wa a'u e hoihoi aku ai i ke pio ana o kuu poe kanaka, I kuu hoola ana i ka Iseraela, alaila hoikeia mai ka hewa o Eperaima, A me na mea ino o ko Samaria: No ka mea, ua hana lakou i ka wahahee; A komo mai ka aihue maloko, A hao wale ka poe powa mawaho.
2 And they do not say to their heart, [That] I have remembered all their evil, Now their doings have surrounded them, They have been before My face.
Aole noonoo ko lakou naau i kuu hoomanao ana i ko lakou hewa a pau: Ano, ua hoopuni ka lakou mau hana ia lakou; Eia no lakou imua o ko'u maka.
3 With their wickedness they make a king glad, And with their lies—princes.
Ma ko lakou hewa hoolealea aku lakou i ke alii, A i na haku hoi ma ko lakou mau hoopunipuni.
4 All of them [are] adulterers, Like a burning oven of a baker, He ceases from stirring up after kneading the dough, until its leavening.
He poe moe kolohe lakou a pau, e like me ka umu i hoenaenaia e ka mea pulehu palaoa, Hoopanee oia i ka pulehu ana, mahope o ke kawili ana i ka palaoa a hiki i ka wa e hu ai.
5 A day of our king! Princes have defiled themselves [with] the poison of wine, He has drawn out his hand with scorners.
A i ka la o ko kakou alii loohia iho na haku e ka mai i ka wela o ka waina, A o aku la oia i kona lima me ka poe haakei.
6 For they have drawn near, Their heart [is] as an oven In their lying in wait—their baker sleeps all night, Morning! He is burning as a flaming fire.
No ka mea, ua hoomakaukau lakou i ko lakou naau, e like me ka umu ma ko lakou hoohalua ana: Ua hiamoe ko lakou mau mea peluhu palaoa, a ao ka po: A i kakahiaka, ua wela ia mea e like me ke ahi lapalapa.
7 All of them are warm as an oven, And they have devoured their judges, All their kings have fallen, There is none calling to Me among them.
Ua wela lakou a pau e like me ka umu, Ua ai lakou i ko lakou mau lunakanawai; Ua haule ko lakou poe alii a pau: Aohe mea e kahea mai ia'u iwaena o lakou.
8 Ephraim! He mixes himself among peoples, Ephraim has been an unturned cake.
O Eperaima, ua hui pu ia me na kanaka e: O Eperaima, he popo palaoa no ia, aole i huliia.
9 Strangers have devoured his power, And he has not known, Also old age has sprinkled [itself] on him, And he has not known.
Ua ai na malihini i kona ikaika, aole nae ia i ike: Ua kau mai no hoi ke oho hina maluna ona, aole nae ia i ike.
10 And the excellence of Israel has been humbled to his face, And they have not turned back to their God YHWH, Nor have they sought Him for all this.
Ke hoike mai nei ka haaheo o ka Iseraela ma kona maka: Aole lakou e hoi hou ia Iehova i ko lakou Akua, Aole imi aku ia ia no keia mea a pau.
11 And Ephraim is as a simple dove without heart, Egypt they called on—[to] Asshur they have gone.
Ua like hoi o Eperaima me he manu nunu la i hawawa aohe ona manao: Kahea aku lakou i ko Aigupita, A hele lakou i ko Asuria.
12 When they go I spread over them My net, As the bird of the heavens I bring them down, I discipline them as their congregation has heard.
A i ka wa e hele ai lakou, e hohola aku au i ka'u upena maluna o lakou; A e lawe mai au ia lakou ilalo, e like me na manu o ka lewa; A e hahau aku au ia lakou, e like me ka mea a ko lakou ahakanaka i lohe ai.
13 Woe to them, for they wandered from Me, Destruction to them, for they transgressed against Me, And I ransom them, and they have spoken lies against Me,
E auwe lakou! no ka mea, ua auwana lakou mai o'u aku la: O ka make ko lakou! no ka mea, ua kipi mai lakou ia'u: Owau ka i hoola ia lakou, A o lakou ka i olelo wahahee mai ia'u.
14 And have not cried to Me with their heart, but howl on their beds; They assemble themselves for grain and new wine, They turn aside against Me.
Aole lakou i auwe mai ia'u me ko lakou naau, i ka wa a lakou i auwe ai maluna o ko lakou wahi moe: Ua hoakoakoa lakou ia lakou iho no ka ai, a no ka waina hou, a ua kipi mai lakou ia'u.
15 And I instructed—I strengthened their arms, And concerning Me they think evil!
Ia'u i ao ai ia lakou, a hooikaika aku ai i ko lakou mau lima, Aka, ke manao hewa mai nei lakou ia'u.
16 They turn back—not to the Most High, They have been as a deceitful bow, Their princes fall by sword, From the insolence of their tongue, This [is] their derision in the land of Egypt!”
Ua hoi hou lakou, aole nae i ka Mea kiekie loa; Ua like lakou me he kakaka hewa la: E haule na'lii o lakou me ka pahikaua, no ka hookano o ko lakou alelo: O keia ko lakou hoino ma ka aina o Aigupita.
