Hosea 8
1 To thy mouth, with a horn! Like an eagle, on the house of Yahweh, —because they have violated my covenant, and, against my law, have they transgressed.
Ataovy eo am-bavanao ny anjomara! Fa hisy toy ny voromahery hipaoka ny tranon’ i Jehovah, satria efa nivadika ny fanekeko sy nandika ny lalàko ireo.
2 Unto me, shall they make outcry, My God! we acknowledge thee—[we], Israel!
Izaho dia hitarainany hoe: Andriamanitro ô, izahay Isiraely mahalala Anao.
3 Israel hath cast away what is good, —an enemy, shall pursue him.
Ataon’ ny Isiraely ho zavatra maharikoriko ny soa; Ny fahavalo no hanenjika azy.
4 They, have appointed kings, but not from me, have made rulers, but I have not acknowledged them: of their silver and their gold, they made themselves idols, to the end they might be cut off.
Ireny dia nanangana mpanjaka nefa tsy avy tamiko; Nifidy mpanapaka izy, nefa tsy fantatro; Ny volafotsiny sy ny volamenany no nataony sampiny mba hamongorana azy.
5 He hath cast away thy calf, O Samaria, kindled is mine anger upon them, —How long shall they not endure to be innocent?
Maharikoriko ilay ombilahy kelinao, ry Samaria; Mirehitra aminareo ny fahatezerako; Mandra-pahoviana no tsy ho tohanareo ny fahadiovana?
6 For, of Israel, is even that thing! A craftsman, made it, and, a No-god, it is! For, into fragments, shall the Calf of Samaria be broken.
Fa avy tamin’ ny Isiraely koa izany; Ny mpiasa no nanao azy, ka dia tsy Andriamanitra izy, fa ho torotoro ilay ombilahy kelin’ i Samaria.
7 For, to the wind, they sow, and, to the whirlwind, they reap: stalk, hath it none, That which shooteth forth, shall yield no meal, If so be it yield, foreigners, swallow it lip,
Fa rivotra no nafafiny, ary tadio no hojinjany; Tsy misy vary mitsangana, ny salohiny tsy hisy ventiny; Ary raha tàhiny hisy aza, dia ny olona hafa firenena no hihinana azy.
8 Swallowed up, is Israel; Now, have they gone among the nations, like a vessel in which no man taketh, delight.
Voatelina Isiraely; Ankehitriny dia efa tonga tahaka ny fanaka tsy mahafinaritra izy any amin’ ny jentilisa.
9 For, they, have gone up to Assyria, A wild ass going alone for himself, is Ephraim! They have hired lovers!
Fa niakatra ho any Asyria izy Toy ny borikidia mandeha irery; Efraima dia nanangy ireo lehilahiny
10 Even though they hire them among the nations, at once, will I gather them, when they have begun to be diminished by reason of the burden of the king of rulers.
Ary na dia nanangy tany amin’ ny jentilisa aza izy, dia hovoriko ankehitriny; Ary hihavitsy izy noho ny entan’ ny mpanjakan’ ireo mpanapaka.
11 Because Ephraim hath multiplied altars sinfully, they have become to him the altars of sin.
Fa Efraima nanao alitara maro hanotana, eny, efa nahazo alitara hanotana izy.
12 I have been wont to write for him the myriad things of my law, —Like something alien, have they been accounted.
Na dia soratako ho azy ny teny betsaka amin’ ny lalàko aza, dia ataony ho toy ny zavatra tsy izy izany.
13 My sacrificial gifts, have they been sacrificing as [common] flesh, and have eaten, Yahweh, hath not accepted them, —Now, will he call to mind their iniquity, that he may punish their sin, they, to Egypt, will return.
Mamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho Ahy izy, eny, mihinana ny henan’ izany, nefa tsy sitrak’ i Jehovah izany; Ankehitriny dia hotsarovany ny fahotany, ary hovaliany ny helony; Eny, izy ireny dia hiverina ho any Egypta.
14 And so Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and hath built temples, and, Judah, hath multiplied fortified cities, —Therefore will I send a fire upon his cities, and it shall consume the palaces thereof.
Efa nanadino ny Mpanao azy Isiraely ka nanorina trano vaventy, ary Joda nanamaro tanàna mimanda; Fa haterako afo ao an-tanànany, ka holevonin’ izany ny trano vaventiny.
