< Hosea 8 >

1 [Yahweh said to me], “Blow [MTY] your trumpet [to warn the people]! My people have rejected the agreement that I made with them, and they have rebelled against [obeying] my laws. Therefore, [their enemies] are swooping down on my people’s country like [SIM] an eagle.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Dawa: digima: ne ga: ga: ma! Buhiba da gogili daha, amo defele, ha lai dunu da Na soge doagala: sa. Na fi dunu da gousa: su Na da ilima hamoi, amo fi dagoi amola Na olelesu amoga lelei dagoi.
2 My Israeli people cry out to me, ‘Our God, we know that you are our God!’
Ilia da ogogole Na da ilia Gode sia: sa, amola ilia da Na fi ilia sia: sa, amola ilia Na dawa: ilisu sia: sa.
3 But because the Israeli people have rejected what is good, their enemies will pursue them.
Be ilia da moloidafa hou higale yolesiagai dagoi. Amaiba: le, ilia ha lai dunu da ili sefasimu.
4 The Israel people appointed [their last three] kings, but they did not ask me if I agreed to [what they were doing]. They chose their own leaders without asking if I would approve of them. They used their own silver and gold to make for themselves idols, and doing that led them to be destroyed.
Na fi dunu da hina bagade ilelegei. Be ilisu da amo hou hamosu. Ilia da ouligisu dunu ilelegei. Be ilia Nama hame adole ba: i. Ilia da ilia silifa amola gouli lale, ogogosu ‘gode’ loboga hamoi. Be amo liligi da ilia hou wadela: lesimu fawane.
5 You people of Samaria, throw away your [idol that resembles a] calf! I am extremely angry with you people! How long [RHQ] will you [do things that cause] you to be unacceptable to me?
Na da gouliga hamoi bulamagau gawali (Samelia moilai dunu da amoma nodone sia: ne gadosa) amo Na bagadewane higasa. Na da ilima baligiliwane ougi gala. Ilia da habowali seda udigili loboga hamoi ogogole ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadoma: bela: ?
6 [Someone in] Israel made that idol for you; [but I am] God and it is not. So that idol of a calf in Samaria must be smashed to pieces.
Isala: ili hawa: hamosu dunu da amo ‘gode’ ea loboga hamoi. Be amo da ‘gode’ liligi hame. Gouliga hamoi bulamagau gawali (Samelia dunu da amoma sia: ne gadosa) da goudane fofonobone fasi dagoi ba: mu.
7 [The foolish thing that the people of Israel have done is like] [MET] trying to plant wind; but what they harvest will be like [MET] a whirlwind. So the grain that they planted will have no heads [on the stalks], and as a result [there will be no grain] from which to make flour. And if it did produce good grain, foreigners would [come and] steal it.
Ilia da wadela: i hou fonobahadi gagoma hawa: agoane bugisia, amo da alebeba: le, ilia da se iasu bagadedafa ba: mu. Gagoma bugi ea fage da hame denesisia, amoga agi ga: gi hamomu da hamedei ba: mu. Be amo bugi da gagoma noga: le legeiyaba, ga fi dunu da amo huluane na dagoi ba: la: loba.
8 [The people of] Israel will be defeated [MET] [by their enemies]; they will be [scattered] among other nations and become worthless.
Isala: ili fi da eno osobo bagade fifi asi gala amo defele hamoi dagoi. Ilia da ofodo goudane fasi agoai ba: sa.
9 Like [MET] donkeys that are looking for mates, they have requested [help] from Assyria; they paid money to [the leaders of Assyria] in order to [persuade those leaders to] protect them.
Ilia da sigua dougi agoane, gawamaga: i hamoi dagoi. Ilia da ilila: hanaiga ahoa. Ilia da Asilia fi ili fidima: ne adole ba: musa: asi. Amola eno fifi asi gala ilia, ili gaga: ma: ne, ilima bidi iaha.
10 But although they have agreed to pay money each year to [the leaders of] those countries, I will soon gather them together [to punish them]. The great King [of Assyria] will cause them to suffer greatly.
Be wali Na da ilima se ima: ne, ili gagadomu. Asilia hina bagade da ili banenesisia, ilia da se nababeba: le sosona: gia: mu.
11 Although [the people of] Israel built many altars to present offerings [to their idols] to take away [their guilt for] sinning, those altars have become places where they commit [more] sins.
Isala: ili dunu da wadela: i hou fadegama: ne, oloda bagohame hamosa. Be amo oloda da ilia wadela: i hou hame fadegasa. Ilia da amogawi ogogole gobele salasu hou hamobeba: le, bu baligili wadela: i hamosa.
12 I wrote many laws for them, but they disregarded them, saying that [they did not have to obey them because] they were different from laws that they had known previously.
Na da Na fi dunuma olelema: ne, sia: bagohame dedesa. Be ilia da amo olelesu da ga fi ilia olelesu defele, higasa.
13 They offer sacrifices to me, and they eat [some of] the meat of those sacrifices, [which is what I permitted them to do]. But I, Yahweh, am not pleased with those sacrifices. I remember the evil things that they have done, and I will punish them for the sins that they have committed: I will force them to [go to other countries] [and become slaves like they were] [MET] in Egypt.
Ilia da Nama gobele salasu hou hamosa, amola amo gobele salasu hu naha. Be Na, Hina Gode, da ilima hahawane hame gala. Amola wali Na da ilia wadela: i hou bu dawa: mu, amola ilima se imunu. Na da ili Idibidi sogega bu asunasimu.
14 [The people of] Israel have abandoned/forgotten me, the one who created their [nation]; they have built palaces, and [the people of] Judah have built walls around many towns. But I will send a fire that will destroy all their cities and their fortresses.”
Isala: ili dunu ilia da hina bagade diasu gaguli gagai. Be ilia Hahamosu Dunu amo ilia da gogolei dagoi. Yuda fi dunu ilia da gagili sali moilai bai bagade gaguli gagai. Be Na da ilia hina bagade diasu huluane amola moilai bai bagade huluane ulagima: ne, lalu iasimu.”
