< Hosea 9 >
1 Do not rejoice, O Israel, with exultation, like the peoples, for thou hast gone away unchastely from beside thy God, —thou hast loved a present, upon all the threshing-floors of corn!
Aza dia fatra-pifaly loatra, toy ny firenena hafa, ry Isiraely; Fa ianao efa nijangajanga niala tamin’ Andriamanitrao sady efa tia tangy teny am-pamoloana rehetra;
2 Threshing-floor and wine-vat, will not feed them, and, new wine, will deny them.
Ny famoloana sy ny fanantazana tsy hahavelona azy, ary hahadiso fanantenana azy ny ranom-boaloboka.
3 They shall not dwell in the land of Yahweh, but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and, in Assyria—that which is unclean, shall they eat.
Tsy honina ao amin’ ny tanin’ i Jehovah izy; Fa Efraima hiverina ho any Egypta ary hihinana zava-padina any Asyria.
4 They shall not pour out to Yahweh—wine, neither shall they be pleasing to him, their sacrifices, are as the food of mourning to them, all that eat thereof, shall defile themselves, because, their food for their appetite, entereth not into the house of Yahweh.
Tsy hanidina divay ho fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah izy, ary tsy hankasitrahany; Ny zavatra vonoiny hatao fanatitra dia ho toy ny fahan-kanina ho an’ ny mpisaona aminy: Izay rehetra homana izany dia voaloto; Fa ny haniny dia ho an’ ny tenany ihany, fa tsy ho tafiditra ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
5 What will ye do, for the day of appointed meeting? and in the day of the festival of Yahweh?
Hanao ahoana kosa re ianareo, raha mby amin’ ny fotoam-pivavahana sy amin’ ny andro firavoravoana voatendrin’ i Jehovah?
6 For, though they have gone from destruction, yet, Egypt, shall gather them, Memphis, shall bury them, —as for their silver favorites! thistles, shall possess them, thorns in their tents.
Fa he! lasa izy noho ny fandringanana; Egypta no hanangona azy, Memfisa no handevina azy; Ny fana-bolafotsiny mahafinaritra dia ho lasan’ ny amiana, tsilo no ho ao an-dainy.
7 Come are the days of visitation, come are the days of recompense, Let Israel know! The prophet is foolish, the man of the spirit doth rave, because of the greatness of thine iniquity, therefore great is the prosecution.
Tonga ireo andro famaliana, tonga ireo andro fanodiavana Ho fantatr’ Isiraely fa adala ny mpaminany, ary very saina ny olona tsindriam-panahy noho ny hamaroan’ ny helokao sy ny habetsahan’ ny fanoherana.
8 The watchman of Ephraim, [should have been] with my God: As for the prophet, the snare of the fowler, is on all his ways, a prosecution [awaiteth him], in the house of his God.
Efraima dia mizaha, nefa tsy avy amin’ Andriamanitro; Ny mpaminany dia fandriky ny mpamandri-borona eny amin’ ny alehany rehetra sy fanoherana ao an-tranon’ Andriamaniny.
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves, like the days of Gibeah: he will call to mind their iniquity, he will punish their sins.
Fatra-panao ratsy toy ny tamin’ ny andro tany Gibea izy; Ka dia hotsarovana ny helony, ary hovaliana ny fahotany.
10 Like grapes in the desert, found I Israel, like the first-ripe in the fig-tree when it is young, saw I your fathers, —they, entered Baal-peor, and devoted themselves to the Shameful Thing, Then became their abominations like their lusts.
Tahaka ny fahitana voaloboka any an-efitra no nahitako ny Isiraely, toy ny fahitana aviavy mialin-taona no nahitako ny razanareo; Nefa ireny dia tonga tany Bala-peora ka nanolo-tena ho amin’ ilay mampahamenatra, ka dia tonga fahavetavetana tahaka an’ ilay tiany ihany izy.
11 As for Ephraim! like a bird, did their glory, fly away, —no birth, and none with child, no conception.
Ny amin’ i Efraima, hihelina toy ny voro-manidina ny voninahiny, ka tsy hisy hiteraka, na hanan’ anaka, na ho torontoronina.
12 Yea, though they rear their children, yet will I make them childless, till there be no human being, —for it is, nothing less than woe, to them when I depart from them!
Na dia misy mitaiza zanaka aza izy, dia hofoanako ihany ireny, ka tsy hisy miangana; Eny, hahita loza koa izy amin’ ny handaozako azy!
13 Ephraim! just as I provided for Tyre, was planted in a meadow, —yet, Ephraim, must needs bring forth for a murderer his children.
Efraima, raha araka ny hitako, dia voavoly ao amin’ ny tany mahafinaritra tahaka an’ i Tyro, nefa tsy maintsy mamoaka ny zanany ho amin’ ny mpamono izy.
14 Give them, O Yahweh—what wilt thou give? Give them, a miscarrying womb, and breasts dried up.
Jehovah ô, omeo azy ― inona no homenao azy? Omeo azy ny kibo tsy mahazo zaza sy ny nono ritra.
15 All their wickedness, is in Gilgal, yea, there, have I come to hate them, For the wickedness of their doings—out of my house, will I drive them forth, —no more will I love them, all their rulers, are unruly.
Ao Gilgala ny fahotany rehetra, eny, tao no vao nankahalako azy; Noho ny faharatsian’ ny ataony dia horoahiko hiala ao an-tranoko izy; Tsy ho tia azy intsony Aho, mpiodina avokoa ny mpanapaka azy.
16 Smitten is Ephraim, their root, hath dried up, fruit, shall they not bear, —yea, though they do bring forth, yet will I slay the darlings of their womb.
Voaratra Efraima, maina ny fakany, ka tsy hamoa izy; Eny, na dia miteraka aza izy, dia hovonoiko ny zanany mahafinaritra azy.
17 My God will reject them, because they hearkened not unto him, —that they may become wanderers throughout the nations.
Harian’ Andriamanitro izy, satria tsy nihaino Azy; Ka dia ho tonga mpirenireny any amin’ ny jentilisa izy.
