Hosea 10
1 A luxuriant vine is Israel. He bore fruit lavishly. In proportion to the increase of his fruit he increased altars to idols. In proportion to the beauty of his land he made beautiful the sacred pillars.
Israel tah misur bangla culh tih amah ah a thaih om. A thaih te a pul bangla hmueihtuk khaw ping. A khohmuen a then bangla kaam dongah lohna uh.
2 Their heart is false, now they must be punished. God himself will break the necks of their altars, he will destroy their sacred pillars.
A lungbuei hoem uh tih boe uh coeng. Amah loh amih kah hmueihtuk a phil pah vetih a kaam te a rhoelrhak pah ni.
3 Yes, soon they will be saying, “We have no king, for we have not revered the Lord, and a king, what could he do for us anyway?”
Te dongah, “BOEIPA he n'rhih uh pawt dongah mamih he manghai tal coeng dae manghai loh mamih ham balae a saii eh?” a ti uh pawn ni.
4 Speaking words, perjuring themselves, making agreements, and litigation springs up like a poisonous weed in a plowed field.
Paipi saii ham vaengah a poeyoek la tap ham ol a thui uh dongah lai kong ah laitloeknah sue la cawn.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria will tremble with fear for their calf of Beth-aven. Its people will mourn over it, and so will its priests, who had rejoiced for its glory, now departed from it.
Bethaven vaitola te Samaria imben loh a bakuep uh thil tih a pilnam loh a soah nguekcoi. A mueirhol khosoih rhoek te a so neh a thangpomnah dongah omngaih dae anih lamkah te a poelyoe pah hae coeng.
6 It will be carried off to Assyria as a present to the patron king. Disgrace will Ephraim bear and Israel will be ashamed of its idol.
Amah te khaw Assyria ah Jareb manghai kah khocang la a khuen ni. Ephraim loh yah a poh vetih Israel khaw amah kah cilsuep dongah yak ni.
7 As for Samaria, her king will disappear, like foam on the face of the waters.
Samaria he hmata ni, a manghai khaw tui hman kah tuihom banghui ni.
8 And the high places of Aven will be destroyed, the shrines of Israel’s sin, thorns and thistles will grow on their altars, and they will say to the mountains, “Cover us,” and to the hills, “Fall upon us.”
Israel kah tholhnah boethae hmuensang kah tim ni. Amih kah hmueihtuk soah hling neh lota luei vetih, “Tlang rhoek te kaimih n'et lamtah som rhoek te kaimih soah cungku lah,” a ti uh ni.
9 From the time of Gibeah, Israel has sinned. There they took their stand. Will not war overtake them in Gibeah because of the wicked?
Gibeah tue lamloh Israel nang na tholh tih pahoi pai uh. Gibeah ah hlangthae koca taengla caemtloek khaw amih te a kae moenih.
10 When I please, I will punish them. Nations will gather against them to chain them for their double crimes.
Ka hue vaengah amih te ka toel pueng ni. Amih kathaesainah dongah amih te tholhnah rhaepnit neh a pin vaengah pilnam loh amih taengah tingtun uh bitni.
11 Ephraim indeed was a trained heifer that loved to thresh grain, and I myself laid a yoke upon his fair neck, I made Ephraim draw and Judah must plow, Jacob must turn the soil for himself.
Ephraim he cang til ham aka lungnah vaitola bangla a cang dae kai loh a rhawn then te ka nan thil ni. Ephraim ka ngol thil vaengah Judah loh a yoe vetih Jakob loh amah hamla a thoe ni.
12 Sow for yourselves righteousness, reap the fruits of love. Break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek the Lord, so righteousness may come to you.
Namamih ham duengnah te soem uh lamtah sitlohnah ol te at uh. Namamih kah khohai te yawt uh. Nangmih soah duengnah pai tih n'thuinuet hil tah BOEIPA te toem ham tue coeng ni.
13 But you have plowed wickedness, iniquity have you reaped. You have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your own path, in the multitude of your warriors,
Halangnah la na thoe uh dongah dumlai na ah uh. Na longpuei ah na hlangrhalh cungkuem neh na pangtung dongah laithae thaih ni na caak uh.
14 the alarm of war will sound in your cities and all your fortresses will be ruined, as Shalman laid in ruins Beth-arbel in the day of battle, when mothers were dashed to pieces over their children.
Na pilnam taengah longlonah pai vetih na hmuencak boeih te caemtloek hnin kah manu neh camoe aka til Betharbel Shalman rhoelrhanah bangla a rhoelrhak ni.
15 Thus will I do to you, Bethel, because of the enormity of your wickedness. When dawn breaks, so will the king of Israel be broken.
Nangmih kah boethae, boethae hmai ah Bethel loh nangmih ham a saii tangloeng pawn ni. Mincang ah Israel manghai te hmata rhoe hmata ni.
