Hosea 9
1 Rejoice not, O Israel, Exult not, like the nations! For thou committest fornication, forsaking thy God! Thou lovest hire on every corn-floor.
Oe Isarelnaw, Jentelnaw patetlah konawm hoi lamtu awh hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na Cathut na pahnawt awh teh, alouke cathut hoi na kâyo awh toe. Cangkatinnae pueng dawk kâyonae phu hah na ngai awh toe.
2 The floor and the vat shall not feed them, And the new wine shall deceive them.
Cangkatinnae hoi misur paw katinnae ni na kawk mahoeh. Misurtui a katha e hai ngaihawi awh e patetlah tâcawt mahoeh.
3 They shall not dwell in the land of Jehovah; To Egypt shall Ephraim go back, And eat unclean things in Assyria.
Ephraim teh Cathut e talai dawk khosak awh mahoeh. Izip ram lah bout a ban awh vaiteh, Assiria ram vah kathounghoehe rawca a ca awh han.
4 They shall pour out no offerings of wine to Jehovah, Nor shall their sacrifices please him; They shall be to them as the bread of mourners; All that eat thereof shall be polluted. Their bread shall be for their own hunger; It shall not come into the house of Jehovah.
Misurtui awi thuengnae hah Cathut koe na sak awh hoeh. Thueng e naw hai a lungyouk mahoeh. Hote Sathei moi teh, khuika laihoi ro kathaknaw e rawca patetlah ao. Ka cat e tamipueng a khin awh han. Ahnimanaw e rawca hah amamouh roeroe ni cat awh naseh. Cathut e im dawk hrueng awh han naseh.
5 What will ye do in the festal day, In the day of the feast of Jehovah?
Bawipa e pawi hnin hoi, Bawipa koe pasoungnae hnin dawkvah, bangtelamaw na sak awh han toung.
6 For, behold, they go forth from a wasted land; Egypt shall gather them; Memphis shall bury them; The precious places of their silver, Nettles shall possess them; Thorns shall spring up in their habitations.
Rawknae dawk hoi ka hlout awh nakunghai, Izip ram pâkhueng awh vaiteh, Memphis khocanaw ni a pakawp awh han. Ngun hoi a pathoup awh e imnaw hah pâkhing tangdun a phunphun ni rup a yam sin han.
7 The days of visitation are come; The days of retribution are come— Israel shall know that the prophet was foolish, That the man of the spirit was mad— For the greatness of` thy iniquity, and thy great hatred.
Lawkceng nahane hnin a pha toe. Moipathungnae hnin a pha toe. Isarelnaw ni a panue awh han. Profet teh a pathu awh toe. Muitha tami hai a pathu toe. Na yonnae apap e patetlah puenghoi raphoenae na khang han.
8 If Ephraim seek an answer from my God, The prophet is as the snare of the fowler in all his ways, A net in the house of his God.
Ephraim ramvengnaw teh Cathut koe ao awh. Hatei, profet teh, a tawksak e pueng hah karap lah ao. A Cathut e im dawk patenghai kâhmuhmanae ka sak e lah ao.
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah; He will remember their iniquity; He will requite their sins.
Gibeah senae patetlah puenghoi a rawk awh toe. A yonae hah a pâkuem pouh teh, a yonae dawk lawk a ceng han.
10 I found Israel as grapes in the wilderness; As the early fruit on the fig-tree, at its first time of bearing, I saw your fathers. But they went to Baal Peor, And separated themselves to shame, And had abominable idols according to their love.
Isarel teh kahrawngum e misur paw patetlah ka hmu teh, na mintoenaw hah thaibunglung a paw hmaloe kahmin e patetlah ka hmu. Ahnimouh teh Baalpeor koe amahmawk a cei awh teh, kayanae dawk a tak a kâhmoun awh teh, a doun awh e patetlah panuettho e hno hah a sak awh.
11 The glory of Ephraim shall fly away as a bird; They shall not bring forth, nor bear in the womb, nor conceive;
Ephraim bawilennae teh tava patetlah a kamleng han. Ca khenae, camo vawnnae, pacipnae awm mahoeh.
12 Yea, if they bring up children, I will utterly bereave them; Yea, woe to them when I depart from them!
A canaw hah a kawk awh eiteh, buet touh boehai hlout laipalah ka lawp han. Ahnimanaw hah Kai ni ka hnoun toteh lungmathoe hanlah ao tangngak.
13 I have seen Ephraim planted, like Tyre, in a rich pasture, Yet shall Ephraim bring out his children to the murderer.
Ephraim teh Taire kho patetlah karoum e boiboe lah ao eiteh, a canu capanaw hah tami kathetnaw koe a thak awh han.
14 Give them, O Jehovah! What wilt thou give them? Give them a miscarrying womb, And dry breasts!
Oe Cathut, na poe awh haw. Bangtelamaw na poe awh han. Camo ka vawn hoe e sanutui ka tâcawt hoeh e sanu na poe a haw.
15 All their wickedness is in Gilgal; Yea, there have I hated them for the wickedness of their doings; I will drive them from my house; I will love them no more; All their princes are revolters.
Gilgal khovah, a sak awh e yon ao teh, hote hmuen koe ahnimouh hah kai ni ka panuet. Ahnimae yonnae kecu dawk ka im dawk hoi ka pâlei han. Ahnimouh hah bout ka lungpataw mahoeh. Ahnimae bawinaw pueng teh taran lah ka thaw e seng doeh.
16 Ephraim is smitten; Their root is dried up; they shall bear no fruit; Yea, though they should beget children, I will destroy the beloved fruit of the womb.
Ephraim teh ahri ni a ca dawkvah, a tangpha a ke teh, a paw paw thai hoeh. Capa a khe awh ei, a pahren awh e capanaw hah ka thei pouh awh han.
17 My God shall cast them away, Because they have not hearkened to him, And they shall be wanderers among the nations.
Kai Cathut e lawk hah a ngâi awh hoeh dawkvah, ka hnoun vaiteh, miphunlouknaw koe parang a kâva awh han.
