< Hosea 10 >

1 Israel was a vyne ful of bowis, fruyt was maad euene to hym; bi the multitude of his fruyt he multipliede auteris, bi the plente of his lond he was plenteuouse.
Israeli ni mzabibu mzuri ambao huzaa matunda yake. kwa kadiri matunda yake yanavyoongezeka vivyo hivyo anajenga madhabahu nyingi. Kwa kuwa nchi yake ilizalishwa zaidi, aliboresha nguzo zake.
2 In simylacris the herte of hem is departid, now thei schulen perische. He schal breke the simylacris of hem, he schal robbe the auteris of hem.
Moyo wao ni udanganyifu; sasa wanapaswa kubeba hatia yao. Bwana ataharibu madhabahu zao; ataharibu nguzo zao.
3 For thanne thei schulen seie, A kyng is not to vs, for we dreden not the Lord. And what schal a kyng do to vs?
Kwa maana watasema, “Hatuna mfalme, kwa maana hatukumcha Bwana. Na mfalme-angeweza kutufanyia nini?”
4 Speke ye wordis of vnprofitable visioun, and ye schulen smyte boond of pees with leesyng; and doom as bittirnesse schal burioune on the forewis of the feeld.
Wanasema maneno tupu na kufanya maagano kwa kuapa uongo. Kwa hivyo haki inakuja kama magugu yenye sumu katika mito ya shamba.
5 The dwelleris of Samarie worschipiden the kien of Bethauen. For the puple therof mourenyde on that calf, and the keperis of the hous therof; thei maden ful out ioye on it in the glorie therof, for it passide fro that puple.
Wakazi wa Samaria wataogopa kwa sababu ya ndama za Beth Aveni. Watu wake waliomboleza juu yao, kama walivyofanya wale makuhani wa sanamu ambao walikuwa wamefurahi juu yao na utukufu wao, lakini hawako tena.
6 For also it was borun to Assur, a yifte to the king veniere. Confusioun schal take Effraym, and Israel schal be schent in his wille.
Wao watachukuliwa kwenda Ashuru kama sadaka kwa mfalme mkuu. Efraimu atakuwa na aibu, na Israeli atakuwa na aibu kwa sanamu yake.
7 Samarie made his kyng to passe, as froth on the face of water. And the hiy thingis of idol, the synne of Israel, schulen be lost.
Mfalme wa Samaria ataangamizwa, kama chipu cha kuni juu ya uso wa maji.
8 A cloote and a brere schal stie on the auters of hem. And thei schulen seie to mounteyns, Hile ye vs, and to litle hillis, Falle ye doun on vs.
Sehemu za juu za uovu zitaharibiwa. Hii ndiyo dhambi ya Israeli! Miti na vichaka vitakua juu ya madhabahu zao. Watu wataiambia milima, “Tufunike sisi!” na kwa vilima, “Tuangukieni!”
9 Fro the daies of Gabaa Israel synnede; there thei stoden. Batel schal not take hem in Gabaa,
Ee Israeli, umetenda dhambi tangu siku za Gibea; huko umebaki. Je, vita vitawapata wana wa uovu huko Gibea?
10 on the sones of wickidnesse. Bi my desir Y schal chastise hem; puplis schulen be gaderid togidere on hem, whanne thei schulen be chastisid for her twei wickidnessis.
Nitakapotaka, nitawaadhibu. Mataifa wataungana pamoja nao na kuwaweka katika vifungo kwa uovu wao mara mbili.
11 Effraym is a cow calf, tauyt for to loue threischyng; and Y yede on the fairenesse of the necke therof. Y schal stie on Effraym. Judas schal ere, and Jacob schal breke forewis to hym silf.
Efraimu ni ndama mwenye mafunzo ambayo anapenda kupura nafaka, hivyo nitaweka jozi juu ya shingo yake nzuri. Efraimu nitauweka jozi; Yuda ataimea; Yakobo atauvuta pigo kwa nafsi yake.
12 Sowe ye to you riytfulnesse in treuthe, and repe ye in the mouthe of merci, and make ye newe to you a feld newli brouyte to tilthe. Forsothe tyme is to seke the Lord, whanne he cometh, that schal teche you riytfulnesse.
Jifanyieni haki, vuneni matunda ya uaminifu wa agano. Chimbueni ardhi yenu isiyopandwa, kwa maana ni wakati wa kumtafuta Bwana, mpaka atakapokuja na kuinua haki juu yenu.
13 Ye han erid vnfeithfulnesse, ye han rope wickidnesse, ye han ete the corn of leesyng. For thou tristydist in thi weles, and in the multitude of thi stronge men.
Mmelima uovu; mmevuna udhalimu. Mmekula matunda ya udanganyifu kwa sababu uliamini katika mipango yako na katika askari wako wengi.
14 Noise schal rise in thi puple, and alle thi stronge holdis schulen be distried; as Salmana was distried of the hous of hym, that took veniaunce on Baal; in the dai of batel, whanne the modir was hurlid doun on the sones.
Kwa hiyo mlipuko wa vita utafufuka kati ya watu wako, na miji yako yote yenye ngome itaharibiwa. Itakuwa kama Shalmani aliharibu Beth Arbeli siku ya vita, wakati mama alivunjika vipande vipande na watoto wake.
15 So Bethel dide to you, for the face of malice of youre wickidnessis.
Kwa hiyo itakuwa kwako, Betheli, kwa sababu ya uovu wako mkubwa. Wakati wa mchana mfalme wa Israeli atakatwa kabisa.
