< Hosea 4 >

1 Hear the word of Yahweh, you people of Israel. Yahweh has a lawsuit against the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truthfulness or covenantal faithfulness, no knowledge of God in the land.
Hina Gode da Ea fi dunu Isala: ili soge ganodini esala, ilima diwaneya udidisa. Isala: ili fi! Ea sia: nabima! E da amane sia: sa, “Noga: i fa: no bobogesu hou amola asigi hou da Isala: ili soge ganodini hamedafa gala. Amola Na fi dunu da Na da Godedafa hame sia: sa.
2 There is cursing, lying, killing, stealing and adultery. The people have broken all bounds, and bloodshed comes after bloodshed.
Ilia da sia: dafawane ilegei amo giadofasa. Ilia da ogogosa amola fane legesa amola wamolasa amola inia uda adole laha. Wadela: i hou da bagade heda: sa amola ilia da fane legesu hou mae fisili hamonana.
3 So the land is drying up, and everyone living in it is wasting away; the beasts in the fields and the birds in the sky, even the fish in the sea, are being taken away.
Amaiba: le, ilia soge da hafoga: i hamoi dagoi ba: mu amola liligi huluane amogawi esalebe da bogogia: i dagoi ba: mu. Ohe huluane amola sio amola menabo huluanedafa da bogogia: i dagoi ba: mu.”
4 But do not allow anyone to bring a lawsuit; do not let anyone accuse anyone else. For it is you, the priests, whom I am accusing.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili dunudafa ilima mae diwaneya udidima amola gagabole mae sia: ma: ma! Na da dili gobele salasu dunu dilima fawane egane sia: sa.
5 You priests will stumble during the day; the prophets will also stumble with you by night, and I will destroy your mother.
Esohaga amola gasia dilia da udigili gagaoui agoane hawa: hamonana amola balofede dunu da dili defele hamosa. Na da dilia ame Isala: ili amo wadela: lesimu.
6 My people are being destroyed because of the lack of knowledge. Because you priests have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you as priests to me. Because you have forgotten my law, although I am your God, I also will forget your children.
Na fi dunu da Nama Na da Godedafa hame sia: beba: le, ilia da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Dilia gobele salasu dunu da Nama Na da Godedafa hame sia: sa amola Na olelesu hame naba. Amaiba: le, Na da dilia gofelalia Nama gobele salasu hamoma: ne hame ilegemu.
7 The more the priests multiplied, the more they sinned against me. They exchanged their honor for shame.
Dilia gobele salasu dunu idi da heda: sea, dilia Nama wadela: i hou hamobe da amo defele heda: sa. Amaiba: le, Na da wali dunu da dilima nodosu hou hamosa amo afadenene, ilia dilima higamu, amola dilia da gogosiamu.
8 They feed on the sin of my people; they are greedy for more of their wickedness.
Na fi dunu da wadela: le hamobeba: le, dilia da bagade gaguiwane ba: sa. Amaiba: le, dilia da ili baligiliwane wadela: i hou hamoma: ne, dilia da hanai.
9 It will be the same for the people as for the priests: I will punish them all for their practices; I will repay them for their deeds.
Dilia da Isala: ili dunu ilia se nabasu defele lamu. Na da dilima se imunu. Amola dilia wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, dilima dabemu.
10 They will eat but not have enough; they will commit prostitution but not increase, because they have gone far away from Yahweh.
Dilia da gobele salasu amoga dilia la: idi amo nanu, bu ha: i ba: mu. Dilia da mano lasu ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadomu, be dilia da mano hame lamu. Bai dilia da Nama baligi fa: le, eno ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima fa: no bobogelala.”
11 They love sexual promiscuity, wine, and new wine, which have taken away their understanding.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na fi dunu da waini hano yaolo amola gaheabolo bagade nabeba: le, gagaoui agoane hamosa.
12 My people consult their wooden idols, and their walking sticks give them prophecies. For a mind of promiscuity has misled them, and they have acted as prostitutes instead of being faithful to their God.
Ilia da udigili ifa amoga hobea misunu hou adole ba: sa. Ifa da ilia dawa: mu hanai liligi ilima adole iaha. Ilia da Na yolesi dagoi. Uda amo da hina: da: i bidi lasu defele, ilila: da: i ilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima i dagoi.
13 They sacrifice on the tops of the mountains and burn incense on the hills, under oaks, poplars and terebinths, because the shade is good. So your daughters commit sexual immorality, and your daughters-in-law commit adultery.
Ilia goumi da: iya sema sogebi amoga gobele salasu hou hamonana amola agolo da: iya ifa sedade amomodai haguduga gabusiga: manoma gobesisa. Bai amo ifa ilia ougiha: i da hisi noga: idafa. Amo hamobeba: le, didiwilali da hina: da: i bidi lasu uda agoane hawa: hamonana, amola dilia nawi ilia da inia dunu adole lasu hou hamosa.
14 I will not punish your daughters when they choose to commit sexual immorality, nor your daughters-in-law when they commit adultery. For the men also give themselves to the prostitutes, and they offer sacrifices so they can commit immoral acts with sacred prostitutes. So this people who does not understand will be thrown down.
Be amo hamobeba: le, Na da ilima se hame imunu. Bai dilisu amola da sia: ne gadosu diasu hina: da: i bidi lasu uda amola gilisili lalala amola ili gilisili, hame lalegagui dunu defele, ogogosu gobele salasu hou hamonana. Musa: malasu defele, ‘Dunu fi da asigi dawa: su hame galea, ilia da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu.’
15 Though you, Israel, have committed adultery, may Judah not become guilty. Do not go to Gilgal, you people; do not go up to Beth Aven, and do not swear, saying, “As Yahweh lives.”
Dilia Isala: ili fi dunu da Nama baligi fa: i dagoi. Be Yuda fi dunu da amo defele hamomu da defea hame. Dilia Giliga: le o Bedele amoma nodone sia: ne gadosu hou mae hamoma. Amola amogawi, Esalalalusu Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le, dafawane ilegele sia: mae sia: ma.
16 For Israel has behaved stubbornly, like a stubborn heifer. How can Yahweh bring them to pasture like lambs in a meadow?
Isala: ili dunu da ‘miule’ (dougi agoai) amo ilia gawamaga: i hou defele gala. Dunu da gisi noga: i sogega sibi mano ilima ha: i nasu iaha. Be Na da habodane amo defele, Isala: ili dunuma ha: i manudafa ima: bela: ?
17 Ephraim united himself with idols; leave him alone.
Isala: ili dunu da loboga hamoi ‘gode’ amo ilia gasaga gagulaligi dagoi. Defea! Ilisu ilia logo fodoi amoga masa: ne yolesima!
18 Even when their strong drink is gone, they continue to commit adultery; her rulers dearly love their shame.
Ilia waini hano bagade nalu, hahawane hina: da: i bidi lasu hou defele hamonana. Ilia da ilima nodosu hou mae dawa: le, gogosiasu fawane hanai gala.
19 The wind will wrap her up in its wings; and they will be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
Ilia da foga mini masunu agoai ba: mu. Amola ilia da hame lalegagui ogogosu gobele salasu hou hamobeba: le, gogosiamu.”
