Hosea 10
1 Israel is a luxuriant vine that produces his fruit. As his fruit increased, the more altars he built. As his land produced more, he improved his pillars.
Isalaele azalaki lokola nzete ya vino ya bitape ebele, azalaki kobota mbuma mpo na ye moko. Ndenge azalaki kobota mbuma ebele, ndenge wana mpe atongaki bitumbelo ebele; ndenge mabele na ye ekomaki kitoko, ndenge wana mpe abongisaki mabanga na ye ya bule.
2 Their heart is deceitful; now they must bear their guilt. Yahweh will demolish their altars; he will destroy their pillars.
Mitema na bango etondi na mabe mpe basengeli sik’oyo kofuta masumu na bango. Ye moko Yawe akokaba bitumbelo na bango mpe akopanza mabanga na bango ya bule.
3 For then they will say, “We have no king, for we did not fear Yahweh, and a king—what could he do for us?”
Boye bakoloba: « Tozali na mokonzi te, pamba te totosaki Yawe te. Ata tozalaki na mokonzi, akokaki kosala nini mpo na biso? »
4 They speak empty words and make covenants by swearing falsely. So justice springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of a field.
Bapesaka bilaka ebele, balapaka ndayi ya lokuta mpe basalaka boyokani. Boye, bosembo ekomi lokola matiti ya ngenge oyo ekolaka na bisika oyo bakataka bilanga.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria will be afraid because of the calves of Beth Aven. Its people mourned over them, as did those idolatrous priests who had rejoiced over them and their splendor, but they are no longer there.
Bavandi ya Samari bazali kolenga mpo na mwana ngombe ya mwasi ya Beti-Aveni; bato na yango mpe Banganga-Nzambe oyo bagumbamelaka ekeko ya mwana ngombe bakosala matanga na tina na yango. Tika ete basepela lelo mpo ete nkembo ya mwana ngombe elongwe kati na bango.
6 They will be carried to Assyria as a present for the great king. Ephraim will be disgraced, and Israel will be ashamed of its idol.
Bakomema ekeko ya mwana ngombe yango na Asiri lokola likabo mpo na mokonzi monene. Efrayimi akoyoka soni, mpe Isalaele akosambwa mpo na mabongisi oyo basalaki.
7 Samaria's king will be destroyed, like a chip of wood on the surface of the water.
Mokili ya Samari mpe mokonzi na yango bakotiola likolo ya mayi lokola mwa eteni ya nzete ya kokawuka.
8 The high places of wickedness will be destroyed. This is the sin of Israel! Thorns and thistles will grow over their altars. The people will say to the mountains, “Cover us!” and to the hills, “Fall on us!”
Bisambelo ya likolo ya bangomba ya Beti-Aveni epai wapi Isalaele azalaki kosala masumu ekobebisama. Banzube mpe basende ekobota na bitumbelo na bango mpe ekozipa yango. Bongo bakoloba na bangomba milayi: « Bozipa biso! » Mpe bakoloba na bangomba mikuse: « Bokweyela biso! »
9 “Israel, you have sinned since the days of Gibeah; there you have remained. Will not war overtake the sons of wrong in Gibeah?
Isalaele, osalaki masumu wuta na mokolo ya Gibea mpe obongwani te. Boni, bitumba ekomeli bato mabe ya Gibea te?
10 When I desire it, I will discipline them. The nations will gather together against them and put them in bonds for their double iniquity.
Nakopesa bango etumbu ndenge nalingi; bato ya bikolo ya bapaya bakosalela bango likita mpe bakokanga bango minyololo likolo ya masumu mibale oyo basalaki.
11 Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh the grain, so I will put a yoke on her fair neck. I will put a yoke on Ephraim; Judah will plow; Jacob will pull the harrow by himself.
Efrayimi azali lokola mwana ngombe ya mwasi oyo babokola malamu, alingaka kobeta ble; kasi nakotia ekangiseli na kingo na ye ya kitoko. Nakotambolisa Efrayimi lokola mpunda, Yuda akobalola mabele, Jakobi akopanza-panza yango.
12 Sow righteousness for yourselves, and reap the fruit of covenant faithfulness. Break up your unplowed ground, for it is time to seek Yahweh, until he comes and rains righteousness on you.
Bolona bosembo mpo na bino moko mpe bokobuka mbuma ya bolingo ya solo. Bomikatela bilanga ya sika, pamba te tango ya koluka Yawe ekoki kino tango akoya kosopela bino bosembo.
13 You have plowed wickedness; you reaped injustice. You have eaten the fruit of deception because you trusted in your plans and in your many soldiers.
Bolonaki makambo mabe, bobukaki mpe makambo mabe mpe boliaki mbuma ya lokuta, pamba te botiaki elikya na makasi mpe na ebele ya basoda na bino.
14 So a tumult of war will rise among your people, and all your fortified cities will be destroyed. It will be as Shalman destroyed Beth Arbel on a day of battle, when mothers were dashed to pieces with their children.
Yango wana, lokito ya bitumba ekoyokana kati na yo, bandako na yo nyonso oyo batonga makasi ekobebisama; ndenge Salimani abebisaki Beti-Aribeli na mokolo ya bitumba, tango bamama mpe bana na bango bakweyaki na mabele.
15 So it will happen to you, Bethel, because of your great wickedness. At daybreak the king of Israel will be completely cut off.”
Beteli, makambo oyo ekokomela yo mpo ete mabe na yo eleki ndelo. Tango mokolo yango ekokoka, mokonzi ya Isalaele akozala lisusu te.
