< Hosea 13 >
1 When spoke Ephraim trembling he lifted up he in Israel and he became guilty by Baal and he died.
Nan tan lontan, lè moun Efrayim yo te pale, tout moun te pran tranble. Yo te rive chèf sou tout lòt branch fanmi Izrayèl la. Men, y' al fè sa ki mal. Y' al adore Baal. Se poutèt sa yo pèdi pye.
2 And now - they increase to sin and they have made for themselves a molten image from silver their according to skill their idols [is the] work of craftsmen all of it of them they [are] saying [those who] offer sacrifice of humankind calves they will kiss!
Jouk koulye a, y'ap fè peche toujou. Y'ap pran kwiv, y'ap fonn li pou fè estati zidòl. Y'ap fè bèl zidòl an ajan jan yo konnen. Tou sa se travay atizan fè ak men yo. Apre sa yo di: Ann ofri bèt pou touye ba yo! Koulye a nou wè se moun k'ap bo estati bèf!
3 Therefore they will become like a cloud of [the] morning and like dew rising early going like chaff [which] it is storm-driven from a threshing floor and like smoke from a window.
Konsa, moun sa yo ap disparèt tankou yon vapè ki leve granmaten, tankou lawouze lè solèy fin leve. Y'ap tankou pay van an ap leve soti sou glasi. Y'ap tankou lafimen k'ap soti nan yon fetay kizin.
4 And I [am] Yahweh God your from [the] land of Egypt and gods besides me not you must know and [is] a deliverer there not except me.
Seyè a di ankò: Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye ou la. Se mwen menm ki te fè soti kite peyi Lejip. Ou pa konn lòt bondye pase mwen menm. Se mwen menm ase ki ka sove ou.
5 I I knew you in the wilderness in a land of drought.
Mwen te okipe ou lè ou te nan dezè a, nan peyi ki pa gen dlo menm lan.
6 According to pasture their and they were satisfied they were satisfied and it was exalted heart their there-fore they forgot me.
Men, lè yo rive nan peyi ki gen bon tè a, yo manje plen vant yo, lògèy vire tèt yo, se konsa yo bliye m'.
7 And I became to them like a lion like a leopard on a road I will watch.
Se poutèt sa, m'ap tonbe sou yo tankou yon lyon. Tankou yon leyopa, mwen pral anbiske kò m' sou wout yo ap tann yo.
8 I will meet them like a bear robbed of cubs so I may tear [the] cavity of heart their and I will devour them there like a lion animal of the field it will tear to pieces them.
M'ap tonbe sou yo tankou yon manman lous yo pran pitit li. M'ap dechire yo. M'ap devore yo lamenm tankou yon fenmèl lyon. M'ap dechire yo tankou yon bèt nan bwa.
9 It will destroy you O Israel for in me in helper your.
M'ap detwi nou, nou menm pèp Izrayèl la, paske nou vire sou do mwen, mwen menm ki tout sekou nou.
10 Where? [is] king your then so he may save you in all cities your and rulers your whom you said give! to me a king and leaders.
Nou te mande pou yo ban nou yon wa ansanm ak lòt chèf. Men, kote wa ki pou te sove nou an? Kote tout chèf ki pou te defann nou yo?
11 I gave to you a king in anger my so I may take [him] away in wrath my.
Mwen te fè kòlè, mwen te ban nou wa a. Men, apre sa, nou fè m' fache pi rèd, mwen wete l' nan mitan nou.
12 [is] bound up [the] iniquity of Ephraim [is] stored up sin his.
Mwen make tou sa Efrayim fè ki mal sou papye. Mwen sere l' byen lwen.
13 [the] pains of [one who] gives birth They will come to him he [is] a son not wise if a time not he will present himself at birth of children.
Nan tout malè sa a, Efrayim te gen yon chans ankò pou l' ta sove. Men, li twò sòt, l'ap pèdi chans lan. Se tankou yon ti bebe ki rive sou dat pou l' fèt men ki pa vle soti nan vant manman l'.
14 From [the] hand of Sheol will I ransom? them from death will I redeem? them where? [are] thorns your O death where? [is] destruction your O Sheol compassion it will be hidden from eyes my. (Sheol )
Mwen p'ap sove pèp la anba lanmò. Mwen p'ap anpeche yo desann nan peyi kote mò yo ye a. Annavan, lanmò! Vini ak tout malè ou yo! Nou menm ki chèf nan peyi kote mò yo ye a, vin detwi pèp la. Mwen p'ap janm gen pitye pou pèp sa a ankò. (Sheol )
15 For he a son brothers he flourishes it will come an east wind [the] wind of Yahweh from [the] wilderness [is] about to come up and it may be withered spring his so it may be dried up spring his it it will plunder [the] treasury of every article of preciousness.
Menm si Izrayèl ta fleri tankou wozo bò dlo, m'ap fè yon van leve nan dezè kote solèy leve a, m'ap fè l' vante sou li, l'ap cheche tout sous dlo ak tout fontenn li yo. L'ap pran tout bagay ki gen valè nan byen l' yo, l'ap pote yo ale.
16 It will be held guilty Samaria for it has rebelled against God its by the sword they will fall children their they will be dashed in pieces and pregnant [women] its they will be ripped open.
Peyi Samari a pral peye pou sa l' fè a, paske li te leve sou do Bondye li a. Yo pral mouri nan lagè. Y'ap pran pitit yo, y'ap kraze yo atè, y'ap fann vant fanm ansent yo.
