Hosea 7
1 'When I give healing to Israel, Then revealed is the iniquity of Ephraim, And the wickedness of Samaria, For they have wrought falsehood, And a thief doth come in, Stript off hath a troop in the street,
Israel ngan ka tuisak naah, Ephraim zaehaih to amtueng ueloe, Samaria poeksethaih doeh amtueng tih. Nihcae mah kami aling o pongah, kamqu imthung ah angzoh moe, mingcahnawk mah tasa bang ih hmuenmaenawk to lomh pae o.
2 And they do not say to their heart, [That] all their evil I have remembered, Now compassed them have their doings, Over-against My face they have been.
Toe nihcae mah sak o ih sethaih to ka panoek pae boih, tito nihcae mah poek o ai; a sak o ih hmuen mah nihcae to takui khoep boeh; nihcae loe ka hmaa ah ni oh o.
3 With their wickedness they make glad a king, And with their lies — princes.
A set o haih mah siangpahrang to anghoe o sak moe, lok amlai o haih hoiah ukkung angraengnawk to anghoe o sak.
4 All of them [are] adulterers, Like a burning oven of a baker, He ceaseth from stirring up after kneading the dough, till its leavening.
Nihcae loe tamquta hoi zaehaih sah kami ah oh o moe, takaw haek kami mah camphaek laom hmai pangaeh ih baktiah oh o; takaw naep kami mah takaw to naep naah, takaw naep boih ai karoek to hmai kamngaeh azuh baktiah a oh o.
5 A day of our king! Princes have polluted themselves [with] the poison of wine, He hath drawn out his hand with scorners.
Aicae siangpahrang ih poih niah anih ih toksah ukkung angraengnawk loe misurtui to paquih o; siangpahrang loe minawk mah pahnuithui ih kaminawk hoi nawnto amyok.
6 For they have drawn near, As an oven [is] their heart, In their lying in wait all the night sleep doth their baker, Morning! he is burning as a flaming fire.
Nihcae mah anih to zing o naah, palungthin to takoeng hmai baktiah a suek o; nihcae han takaw haek pae kami loe qum puek a iih; akhawnbang phak naah loe hmai kangqong baktiah angqongh.
7 All of them are warm as an oven, And they have devoured their judges, All their kings have fallen, There is none calling unto Me among them.
Nihcae loe omthu baktiah bet o boih moe, angmacae lokcaekkungnawk doeh kangh boih; nihcae ih siangpahrangnawk doeh amtimh o boih boeh. Nihcae thungah kai kawk kami mi doeh om o ai.
8 Ephraim! among peoples he mixeth himself, Ephraim hath been a cake unturned.
Ephraim loe kaminawk hoi angbaeh moe, nawnto khosak; Ephraim loe qoi ai ah ahap khue hmai paaem ih takaw karoem baktiah ni oh.
9 Devoured have strangers his power, And he hath not known, Also old age hath sprinkled [itself] on him, And he hath not known.
Minawk kalah mah anih ih tha to caak pae o, toe anih mah panoek ai; ue, a lu nui ih sam doeh pok boeh, toe anih mah panoek ai.
10 And humbled hath been the excellency of Israel to his face, And they have not turned back unto Jehovah their God, Nor have they sought Him for all this.
Israel amoekhaih loe a mikhmai ah amtueng, toe nihcae loe angmacae ih Angraeng khaeah amlaem o ai, anih to pakrong o ai.
11 And Ephraim is as a simple dove without heart, Egypt they called on — [to] Asshur they have gone.
Ephraim loe poekhaih tawn ai, pahu baktiah oh: Izip to kawk o moe, Assyria khaeah caeh o.
12 When they go I spread over them My net, As the fowl of the heavens I bring them down, I chastise them as their company hath heard.
Nihcae caeh o naah, palok hoi ka haengh han; nihcae to van ih tavaanawk baktiah ka zaeh tathuk han; angmacae ih kaminawk mah thaih o ih baktih toengah, nihcae to ka thuitaek han.
13 Woe to them, for they wandered from Me, Destruction to them, for they transgressed against Me, And I — I ransom them, and they have spoken lies against Me,
Nihcae loe Kai khae hoi cawnh o ving boeh pongah, khosak bing o boeh! Ka nuiah zaehaih a sak o pongah, nihcae loe anghmat o boeh. Nihcae to ka krang boeh, toe kai khaeah amsawnlok a thuih o.
14 And have not cried unto Me with their heart, but howl on their beds, For corn and new wine they assemble themselves, They turn aside against Me.
Nihcae iihkhun ah qah o naah, palungthin tang hoi kai khaeah hang o ai. Nihcae loe cang hoi misurtui hak hanah nawnto amkhueng o, toe ka lok to aek o.
15 And I instructed — I strengthened their arms, And concerning Me they think evil!
Nihcae to ka thuitaek moe, bantha ka caksak, toe nihcae mah ka nuiah kasae sak han pacaeng o lat.
16 They turn back — not to the Most High, They have been as a deceitful bow, Fall by sword do their princes, From the insolence of their tongue, This [is] their derision in the land of Egypt!
Nihcae loe angqoi o, toe kasang koek khaeah angqoi o ai; nihcae loe kamro thaih kalii hoiah ni anghmong o boeh: angmacae ukkung angraengnawk loe angmacae tangoenghaih lok pongah sumsen hoiah dueh o tih. Nihcae loe Izip kaminawk mah pahnui o thui tih.
