< Hosea 10 >

1 Israel [is] an empty vine, he bringeth forth fruit to himself: according to the multitude of his fruit he hath multiplied the altars; according to the goodness of his land they have made goodly images.
Voaloboka misandrahaka Isiraely, mamoa ho azy izy; Araka ny habetsahan’ ny voany no nanaovany alitara betsaka, araka ny hatsaran’ ny taniny no nanaovany tsangam-baton-tsampy tsara tarehy.
2 Their heart is divided; now shall they be found faulty: he shall break down their altars, he shall spoil their images.
Mamitaka ny fony, koa dia hovaliana izy izao noho ny helony; Jehovah no hanimba ny alitarany sy handrava ny tsangam-baton-tsampiny
3 For now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not the LORD; what then should a king do to us?
Amin’ izany dia hiteny izy hoe: Tsy mana-mpanjaka isika; Fa tsy natahorantsika Jehovah, koa hahavita inona ho antsika moa izay mpanjaka?
4 They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: thus judgment springeth up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.
Niteniteny foana izy tamin’ ny nianianany tsy tò sy ny nanaovany fanekena; Ka nitrebona toy ny zava-mangidy eny am-bavasa eny an-tsaha ny rariny.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria shall fear because of the calves of Beth-aven: for its people shall mourn over it, and its priests [that] rejoiced on it, for its glory, because it is departed from it.
Ny mponina any Samaria matahotra noho ny amin’ ny ombivavy kely ao Betavena; Fa ny olony mitomany azy,
6 It shall also be carried to Assyria, [for] a present to king Jareb: Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel.
Iny koa ho entina any Asyria ho fanomezana ho an’ i Jareba mpanjaka; Ho afa-baraka Efraima, eny, hangaihay Isiraely noho ny saina nataony.
7 [As for] Samaria, her king is cut off as the foam upon the water.
Ho rava Samaria, ny mpanjakany dia ho tonga toy ny sombin-javatra eny ambonin’ ny rano.
8 The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.
Ary ho rava koa ny fitoerana avo ho Avena, izay anotan’ Isiraely; Ho rakotry ny tsilo sy ny ahitra ratsy ny alitarany; Ary izy hanao amin’ ny tendrombohitra hoe: sarony izahay, ary amin’ ny havoana hoe: Mianjerà aminay.
9 O Israel, thou hast sinned from the days of Gibeah: there they stood: the battle in Gibeah against the children of iniquity did not overtake them.
Hatramin’ ny andro fony tany Gibea no efa nanotanao, ry Isiraely; Nikikitra tany izy; Tsy nahatratra azy tany Gibea ny ady namelezana ny zanaky ny faharatsiana.
10 [It is] in my desire that I should chastise them; and the people shall be gathered against them, when they shall bind themselves in their two furrows.
Araka ny sitrako no hamaizako azy; Ary hovorina hamely azy ny firenena, amin’ ny hamatorana azy noho ny helony roa loha.
11 And Ephraim [is as] a heifer [that is] taught, [and] loveth to tread out [the corn]; but I passed over upon her fair neck: I will make Ephraim to ride; Judah shall plow, [and] Jacob shall break his clods.
Ary Efraima dia tahaka ny ombivavy kely efa voafolaka ka faly hively vary; Ary hasiako zioga ny vozony tsara tarehy; Hampandehaniko Efraima; Joda hiasa tany, ary Jakoba handravona.
12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for [it is] time to seek the LORD, till he shall come and reign righteousness upon you.
Mamafaza ho anareo araka ny fahamarinana, mijinjà araka ny fitiavana, hevoy ny tombam-borakareo; Fa izao no andro hitadiavana an’ i Jehovah ambara-pihaviny sy handatsahany fahamarinana aminareo.
13 Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies: because thou hast trusted in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men.
Niasa faharatsiana ianareo, ka fahadisoana no nojinjanareo; Nihinana ny vokatry ny lainga ianareo fa nitoky tamin’ ny alehanareo sy ny habetsahan’ ny lehilahy maherinareo ianareo.
14 Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy people, and all thy fortresses shall be plundered, as Shalman plundered Beth-arbel in the day of battle: the mother was dashed in pieces upon [her] children.
Dia hisy tabataba hamelezana ny olonareo, ka horavana ny tanànareo mimanda rehetra, toy ny nandravan’ i Salamana an’ i Bet-arbela tamin’ ny andro niadiana, ka torotoro avokoa ny reniny mbamin’ ny zanany.
15 So shall Beth-el do to you because of your great wickedness: in a morning shall the king of Israel be utterly cut off.
Toy izany no hataon’ i Betela aminareo, noho ny haben’ ny faharatsianareo; Raha maraina ny andro, dia ho levona mihitsy ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely.
