Hosea 11
1 "When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son.
“Israeri paakanga achiri muduku, ndaimuda, uye ndakadana mwanakomana wangu kubva kuIjipiti.
2 As I called them, the farther they went from me. They sacrificed to the Baals, and burned incense to engraved images.
Asi pandakanyanya kuvadana, vakatonyanya kunditiza. Vakabayira kuna vanaBhaari uye vakapisira zvinonhuhwira kuzvifananidzo.
3 Yet I taught Ephraim to walk. I took them in my arms; but they did not know that I healed them.
Ndini ndakadzidzisa Efuremu kufamba, ndichivasesedza namaoko avo; asi havana kuzvicherechedza kuti ndini ndakavarapa.
4 I drew them with cords of a man, with ties of love; and I was to them like those who lift up the yoke on their necks; and I bent down to him and I fed him.
Ndakavatungamirira nerwodzi rwounyoro hwomunhu, nezvisungo zvorudo; ndakasimudza joko kubva pamutsipa wavo ndikakotama kuti ndivape zvokudya:
5 "They won't return into the land of Egypt; but the Assyrian will be their king, because they refused to repent.
“Havangadzokerizve kuIjipiti uye vaAsiria havangavatongi here nokuti vakaramba kutendeuka?
6 The sword will fall on their cities, and will destroy the bars of their gates, and will put an end to their plans.
Minondo ichapenya mumaguta avo, ichaparadza mazariro pamasuo avo uye ichagumisa zvirongwa zvavo.
7 My people are determined to turn from me. Though they call to the Most High, he certainly won't exalt them.
Vanhu vangu vazvipira kutsauka vachibva kwandiri. Kunyange dai vakadana kuna Iye Wokumusoro-soro, haangatongovasimudziri kunyange nenzira ipi zvayo.
8 "How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within me, my compassion is aroused.
“Ndinokuregedza seiko, Efuremu? Ndingakuendesa seiko, Israeri? Ndingakuitireiko saAdhima? Ndingakuenzanisa sei naZebhoimi? Mwoyo wangu washanduka mukati mangu; tsitsi dzangu dzose dzamutswa.
9 I will not execute the fierceness of my anger. I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of you; and I will not come in wrath.
Handingazadzisi kutsamwa kwangu kukuru kana kutendeuka kuti ndiparadze Efuremu. Nokuti ndiri Mwari, kwete munhu, Mutsvene pakati penyu. Handingauyi ndakatsamwa.
10 They will walk after the LORD, who will roar like a lion; for he will roar, and the children will come trembling from the west.
Vachatevera Jehovha; achaomba seshumba. Paachaomba, vana vake vachauya vachidedera vachibva kumadokero.
11 They will come trembling like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will settle them in their houses," says the LORD.
Vachauya vachidedera seshiri vachibva kuIjipiti, senjiva vachibva kuAsiria. Ndichavagarisa mudzimba dzavo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
12 Ephraim surrounds me with falsehood, and the house of Israel with deceit. Judah still strays from God, and is unfaithful to the Holy One.
Efuremu andikomberedza nenhema, imba yaIsraeri nounyengeri. Uye Judha akasindimara pamberi paMwari, kunyange pamberi paIye Mutsvene Akatendeka.
