< Hosea 13 >

1 [Previously], when [the leaders of] Israel spoke, the people trembled; those leaders were highly respected by the Israeli people. But the people sinned greatly by [worshiping] Baal, so now they will be killed [by their enemies].
Hagi kora Efraemi naga'mozama kema hazage'za vahe'mo'za koro huza zmahirahiku nehazageno, Israeli vahepina zamagimo'a mareri'ne. Hianagi Efraemi vahe'mo'za Bali havi anumzante monora hunte'za kumira hu'nazagu fri'naze.
2 Now they sin more and more; they make idols for themselves [and coat the idols] with their silver. Those idols are statues that are very cleverly made, but those statues are made by [mere] humans. But [the people are told], “Kiss those idols [that resemble a] calf, and offer sacrifices to them!”
Hagi meninena Israeli vahe'mo'za mago'ane kumira huvava hu'za nevu'za, kaza osu havi anumzamofo amema'a silvareti tro hunte'naze. Ana nehu'za ana zantera Kresramanama vunenteta agira antako hunteho hu'za nehaze.
3 Therefore, those people will [disappear quickly] like [SIM] the morning mist or the dew that lies [on the ground] early [in the morning]; [they will disappear] like [SIM] chaff that is blown away from where [the wheat] is threshed, like [SIM] smoke that goes out of a chimney.
E'ina hu'nagu zamagra nantera hampomo fanane hiankna nehu'za, nantera zage rentegeno ata'mo fanane hiankna ana vahe'mo'za hugahaze. Ana nehu'za witi honama hare kumapinti zahomo witi hona eri hareno viankna nehu'za, tokima mareri kampinti teve tokimo atiramino ome vagareankna nehaze.
4 But [Yahweh says to his people], “I am Yahweh, your God, [the one who brought your ancestors] out of Egypt. You must believe that only I am God and that there is no other God, and that there is no one else who can save you!
Hianagi Nagra tamagri Anumzamo'na Isipitira tamavre'na e'noa Anumza mani'noe. Hagi tamagra ru anumzamofo agia ahentesga osiho. Na'ankure tamagu'ma vazi Anumzana magora omani'neanki, Nagrake'za mani'noe.
5 I took care of your [ancestors when they were] in the desert, where it was extremely [hot and] dry.
Hagi hagege huno tima omane ka'ma kopina, Nagra kegava huramante'noe.
6 When I provided food for them, their [stomachs] were full, and they were satisfied. But then they became proud and they forgot [about] me, [and you are like your ancestors]!
Hianagi Nagra ne'zana tamugeta neramu'ma nehuta, tamagra tamavufga erisaga nehuta, Nagrira tamage kaninante'naze.
7 So I will attack you like [SIM] a lion [attacks other animals]; I will be like [SIM] a leopard that waits beside the road [to attack another animal].
E'ina hu'negu Nagra laionimo zagagafa aheaza hu'na neramahe'na, lepatimo karanka frakineno zagagafa aheno tagana vaziankna hugahue.
8 Like [SIM] a female bear attacks anyone that steals her cubs, I will attack you Israelis and rip you open. I will completely destroy you like [SIM] lions or [other] wild animals tear apart the animals that they catch and devour them.
Hagi Nagra a' beamo'ma anenta'a avre'nageno ha'hiankna hu'na zamahe'na zamimiza eri tapage hunetrena, laionimo zagagafa aheno neankna nehu'na, afi zagamo zagagafa aheno tagana vazinkna hu'na zamahena tagna taganu vazitregahue.
9 [You people of] Israel, you will be destroyed because you oppose me, the only one who (can help/helps) you.
Hagi Israeli vahe'mota tamagra havizantfa hugahaze. Na'ankure tamagra tamazama nehua Anumzamo'na ha' renante'naze.
10 You have a king; (why is he [unable to save you]?/but he is [unable to save you].) [RHQ] You have [RHQ] rulers in all your towns, but they are not helping you, [either]. Your [ancestors] said, ‘Appoint for us a king and [other] leaders [to rule over us] [like the other nations have]!’
Hagi ranra kumatamifinti'ma tamagu'ma vazinia kini vahetamia iga mani'naze? Hagi kini vahe'ene kva vahetaminema tamio huta hu'naza kini vahe'tamine kva vahetaminena iga mani'naze?
11 I was angry with them [for requesting that], but I appointed a king [to rule over] them. But [later] I became very angry with them [again], so I took their king away.
Anagema hazage'na narimpa aheneramante'na, kini vahera tamamite'na ete tusi narimpa ahe neramante'na, ana kini vahera zamavare atre'noe.
12 [I have written on a scroll] a record of the sins that have been committed by you people of Israel, and I have stored away that record.
Hagi Efraemi vahe'mokizmi kefo avu'ava zana kona anakintegeno me'negeno, kumizmia avompi krentegeno me'ne.
13 You people are not wise; and now [you are helpless]. You are like [MET] a woman who is having birth pains but who is unable to give birth to the baby.
Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za anemo'zama mofavre antenaku'ma nehazageno nehiankna zamata erigahazanagi, ana mofavrea knare antahiza omane mofavre kasenteankna hugahaze. Hagi mofavrema kasente knarera, ana mofavremo'a nerera arimpafintira atioramigahie.
14 I certainly will not [RHQ] save you from being killed and from going to the place where the dead people are. I will [RHQ] cause you to be afflicted by plagues and to die and be buried in graves. I will not be merciful [to you]. (Sheol h7585)
Hagi Nagra fri vahe kumapintira (Seol) ete ozamavaregahufi? Hagi fri'zamofo hanavefintira ozmavregahufi? Hagi nagra ama ana vahekura nasunkura osugahue. (Sheol h7585)
15 Even if you people of Israel prosper more than the nearby nations do, [the army of Assyria] will come [like] [MET] an east wind that blows from the desert; the springs and wells in Israel will become dry; and [your enemies] will take away all your valuable possessions.
Hagi miko kafuhe'i amunompina Efraemiga knare'za hunka nehagenka tretre hunka mareri'nane. Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a zage hanati kazigati zahora hunte'nigeno hagege kokampina zahora erino ne-eno, tinkeria eri neraneno, neonse tinena eri hagege nehuno, maka mareri zago fenozana emeri vagareno vugahie.
16 [You people of] Samaria must be punished because you have rebelled against [me], your God. You will be killed by [your enemies’] swords; your little children will be [killed by being] dashed/thrown to the ground; the [bellies of] women [among you] will be ripped open.”
Hagi Sameria vahe'mo'za kumi'ma hu'nazarera knazana erigahaze. Na'ankure zamagra Anumzamo'na ha'renante nazankino, kazinteti zamahe vaganere'za neone mofavreramina zamahe'za rutraga hunetre'za, amu'ene aneramina zamahe'za zamarimpa reraragu fegahaze.
