< Hosea 5 >

1 'Hear this, O priests, and attend, O house of Israel, And, O house of the king, give ear, For the judgment [is] for you, For, a snare ye have been on Mizpah, And a net spread out on Tabor.
E HOOLOHE oukou i keia, o na kahuna, E haliu mai oukou, e ko ka hale o ka Iseraela, A e lohe na pepeiao, e ko ka hale o ke alii; No ka mea, no oukou ka hoohewa. No ka mea, ua lilo oukou i pahele ma Mizepa, A i upena hohola hoi maluna o Tabora.
2 And to slaughter sinners have gone deep, And I [am] a fetter to them all.
Ke pepehi nui nei ka poe haalele hewa, A e hahau au ia lakou a pau.
3 I have known Ephraim, And Israel hath not been hid from me, For now thou hast gone a-whoring, Ephraim, Defiled is Israel.
Ua ike au ia Eperaima, Aole hoi i hunaia ka Iseraela mai o'u aku la: No ka mea, ano, e Eperaima, ua moe kolohe no oe, A ua haumia o ka Iseraela.
4 They give not up their habitual doings, To turn back unto their God, For a spirit of whoredoms [is] in their midst, And Jehovah they have not known.
Aole lakou i hoolilo i ko lakou manao e huli hou i ko lakou Akua: No ka mea, he naau moe kolohe iwaena o lakou, Aole lakou i ike ia Iehova.
5 And humbled hath been the excellency of Israel to his face, And Israel and Ephraim stumble by their iniquity, Stumbled also hath Judah with them.
Ke hoike mai nei ka haakei o ka Iseraela ma kona maka: Nolaila o ka Iseraela a me Eperaima, e haule pu iloko o ko lakou hewa; A o Iuda hoi kekahi e haule pu me lakou.
6 With their flock and with their herd, They go to seek Jehovah, and do not find, He hath withdrawn from them.
A e hele lakou me ka lakou poe hipa, a me ka lakou poe bipi e imi ia Iehova, Aka, aole e loaa ia lakou; Ua hele ia mai o lakou aku.
7 Against Jehovah they dealt treacherously, For strange sons they have begotten, Now consume them doth a month [with] their portions.
Ua hana hoopunipuni aku la lakou ia Iehova: No ka mea, ua hoohanau lakou i na keiki e: Ano e hoopauia auanei lakou i ka malama hookahi, a me ko lakou waiwai.
8 Blow ye a cornet in Gibeah, a trumpet in Ramah, Shout, O Beth-Aven, after thee, O Benjamin.
E puhi oukou i ka pukani ma Gibea, I ka pu hoi ma Rama: E kahea nui aku ma Betavena mahope on, e Beniamina.
9 Ephraim is for a desolation in a day of reproof, Among the tribes of Israel I have made known a sure thing.
A e neoneo auanei o Eperaima i ka la e hoopaiia'i: Mawaena o na ohana o ka Iseraela ua hoike aku au i ka oiaio o ka mea e hiki mai ana.
10 Princes of Judah have been as those removing a border, On them I do pour out as water My wrath.
Ua like na'lii o ka Iuda me ka poe hoonee i ka palena aina: Nolaila e ninini aku au i ko'u huhu maluna o lakou me he wai la.
11 Oppressed is Ephraim, broken in judgment, When he pleased he went after the command.
Ua hooluhiia o Eperaima, ua hookaumahaia ma ka hoohewa, No ka mea, ua lealea oia i ka hele ana mamuli o ke kauoha.
12 And I [am] as a moth to Ephraim, And as a rotten thing to the house of Judah.
Nolaila, e like auanei au me ka mu no Eperaima, A me he mea popopo la no ko ka hale o Iuda.
13 And see doth Ephraim his sickness, and Judah his wound, And Ephraim goeth unto Asshur, And sendeth unto a warlike king, And he is not able to give healing to you, Nor doth he remove from you a scar.
A ike iho la o Eperaima i kona mai, a o Iuda hoi i kona. eha, Alaila, hele aku la o Eperaima i Asuria, A hoouna aku la i ke alii ku e: Aole nae e hiki ia ia ke hoola ia oukou, Aole hoi e hoola i ko oukou eha.
14 For I [am] as a lion to Ephraim, And as a young lion to the house of Judah, I — I tear and go, I bear away, and there is no deliverer.
No ka mea, e like auanei au me he liona la ia Eperaima, A e like me he liona hou la i ko ka hale o Iuda: Owau, owau ke haehae, a hele aku, E lawe pio aku au, aohe mea nana e hoopakele.
15 I go — I turn back unto My place, Till that they are desolate, and have sought My face. In their distress they do seek Me speedily!'
E hele au a e hoi aku i ko'u wahi, A e hoopaiia lakou, a e imi mai i kuu maka: I ko lakou wa pilikia e imi koke mai lakou ia'u.
