< 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.
“तुरही फुक्‍न तयार होओ! परमप्रभुको मन्‍दिरमाथि एउटा गरुड आउँदैछ, किनभने मानिसहरूले मेरो करार भङ्ग गरेका छन्, र मेरो व्यवस्थाको विरुद्ध बागी भएका छन् ।
2 Unto me, shall they make outcry, My God! we acknowledge thee—[we], Israel!
तिनीहरू मलाई पुकारा गर्छन्, ‘हे मेरा परमेश्‍वर, इस्राएलीमा हामी तपाईंलाई चिन्दछौं ।’
3 Israel hath cast away what is good, —an enemy, shall pursue him.
तर इस्राएलले जे असल छ त्यो इन्‍कार गरेको छ, र सत्रुले त्यसलाई खेद्‍नेछ ।
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.
मैले नचुनेका राजाहरूलाई, तिनीहरूले स्थापित गरेका छन् । तिनीहरूले मलाई नसोधी राजकुमारहरू नियुक्‍त गरेका छन् । आफ्‍ना चाँदी र सुनले, आफ्नै निम्ति तिनीहरूले मूर्तिहरू बनाएका छन्, तर तिनीहरूको विनाश हुनलाई नै यसो भयो ।”
5 He hath cast away thy calf, O Samaria, kindled is mine anger upon them, —How long shall they not endure to be innocent?
“ए समारिया, तेरो बाछो तिरस्‍कृत भएको छ । यी मानिसहरूका विरूद्धमा मेरो क्रोध जल्‍दैछ । किनकि कहिलेसम्म तिनीहरू दोषी रहनेछन्?
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.
किनकि यो मूर्ति इस्राएलबाट आएको हो । एउटा कारिगरले त्‍यो बनायो । त्यो परमेश्‍वर होइन! सामरियाको बाछोलाइ टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारिनेछ ।
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,
किनकि मानिसहरूले बतास छर्छन्, र आँधिको कटनी गर्छन् । खडा बालीमा बालाहरू छैनन्, र त्यसले केही फसल दिंदैन । त्यसमा फसल लाग्‍यो भने, परदेशीहरूले त्यो सखाप पार्नेछन् ।
8 Swallowed up, is Israel; Now, have they gone among the nations, like a vessel in which no man taketh, delight.
इस्राएल निलिएको छ । अब जातिहरूमा बिचमा ती काम नलाग्‍ने वस्तुझैं रहन्‍छन् ।
9 For, they, have gone up to Assyria, A wild ass going alone for himself, is Ephraim! They have hired lovers!
किनकि वन-गधा एक्लै गएझैं, तिनीहरू अश्‍शूरसम्‍म गए । एफ्राइमले आफ्नै निम्ति प्रेमीहरू नियुक्‍त गरेको छ ।
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.
तिनीहरूले जातिहरूका बिचमा प्रेमीहरू नियुक्‍त गरे तापनि, अब तिनीहरूलाई म एकसाथ भेला गराउनेछु । राजकुमारहरूका राजाको दमनको कारणले, तिनीहरू दुःखी हुन लाग्‍नेछन् ।
11 Because Ephraim hath multiplied altars sinfully, they have become to him the altars of sin.
किनकि पापबलिहरूका निम्ति एफ्राइमले वेदीहरूको सङ्ख्या बढाएका छन्, तर झन् पाप गर्ने वेदीहरू ती भएका छन् ।
12 I have been wont to write for him the myriad things of my law, —Like something alien, have they been accounted.
तिनीहरूका निम्ति मैले आफ्‍नो व्यवस्थालाई दस हजारपल्‍ट लेखे पनि, तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई कुनै नयाँ कुराजस्‍तो गरी हेर्छन् ।
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.
मेरा भेटीहरूका बलिदानको बारेमा, तिनीहरूले मासु चढाउँछन् र त्यो खान्‍छन्, तर म, परमप्रभुले त्यो ग्रहण गर्दिनँ । अब म तिनीहरूका अधर्मका बारेमा विचार गर्नेछु, र तिनीहरूका पापलाई दण्ड दिनेछु । तिनीहरू मिश्रदेशमा फर्कनेछन् ।
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.
इस्राएलले आफ्‍ना सृष्‍टिकर्ता, मलाई बिर्सेको छ, र दरबारहरू बनाएका छ । यहूदाले धेरै सहरहरूलाई किल्‍लाबन्‍दी गरेको छ, तर त्यसका सहरहरूमा म आगो पठाउनेछु, र त्यसले उसका किल्‍लाहरू भष्‍म पार्नेछ ।
