Hosea 8
1 'Unto thy mouth — a trumpet, As an eagle against the house of Jehovah, Because they transgressed My covenant, And against My law they have rebelled.
Ano am-palie’o eo i antsivay, hihelañe mb’añ’anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo re hoe vantio, amy t’ie nivalik’ amy fañinakoy vaho niola amo Fanoroakoo.
2 To Me they cry, 'My God, we — Israel — have known Thee.'
Hitoreo amako hao t’Israele: Ry Andrianañahare, fa nahafohiñ’Azo zahay.
3 Cast off good hath Israel, an enemy pursueth him.
Fa nahifi’ Israele añe ty soa; horidañe’ o rafelahio iereo.
4 They have made kings, and not by Me, They have made princes, and I have not known, Their silver and their gold they have made to them idols, So that they are cut off.
Nampijadoñe mpifeleke iereo, fe tsy boak’ amako; manam-pifehe, fe nofiko; nanoe’ iereo ndrahare avao o volafoty naho volamena’ iareoo, soa te haitoañe.
5 Cast off hath thy calf, O Samaria, Burned hath Mine anger against them, Till when are they not capable of purity?
I bania’oy ry Somerone, ty nañitoañ’ azo; misolebotse ama’o ty habosehako; ampara’ te ombia t’ie hahatakatse lio-hakeo?
6 For even it [is] of Israel; an artificer made it, And it [is] not God, For the calf of Samaria is fragments!
F’ie boak’ am’ Israele; rinanjim-pitoroñe; toe tsy Andrianañahare; le ho demoheñe i bania’ i Somerone rey.
7 For wind they sow, and a hurricane they reap, Stalk it hath none — a shoot not yielding grain, If so be it yield — strangers do swallow it up.
Nitongy i tiokey iereo, vaho ho tatahe’ iereo ty tangololahy; tsy hanam-bokatse iereo; tsy hiborake ty taho’e fe ndra t’ie hamokatse, habotse’ ty ambahiny.
8 Israel hath been swallowed up, Now they have been among nations, As a vessel in which is no delight.
Fa nagodrañe t’Israele; le hoe fanake tsy vara amo kilakila’ ondatio,
9 For they — they have gone up [to] Asshur, A wild ass alone by himself [is] Ephraim, They have hired lovers!
amy te nionjomb’Asore mb’eo, i borìke lý mirerererey; manambe sakeza t’i Efraime.
10 Also though they hire among nations, Now I gather them, and they are pained a little, From the burden of a king of princes.
Aa ndra t’ie nandeta-vatañe amo fifeheañeo, hatontoko henaneo, ie fa ninìke ty amy nampijiniam-panjaka naho o roandriañeo.
11 Because Ephraim did multiply altars to sin, They have been to him altars to sin.
Nampitombo kitrely handilara’e t’i Efraime; hakeo ama’e i kitrely rey.
12 I write for him numerous things of My law, As a strange thing they have been reckoned.
Sinokiko ama’e ty raha maro amy Fanoroakoy fe natao’e ho raha ankafaankafa.
13 The sacrifices of Mine offerings! They sacrifice flesh, and they eat, Jehovah hath not accepted them, Now doth He remember their iniquity, And inspect their sin, They — [to] Egypt they turn back.
Banabanae’ iereo soron-draho, isoroña’ iareo hena naho kamae’e; fe tsy no’ Iehovà; ho tiahi’e o tahi’ iareoo, vaho ho vale’e o hakeo’ iareoo; himpoly mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo iereo.
14 And forget doth Israel his Maker, and buildeth temples, And Judah hath multiplied cities of defence, And I have sent a fire into his cities, And it hath consumed their palaces!
Amy te nandikofa’Israele i Mpitsene azey, vaho nandranjy anjomba bey; fa nampitombo kijoly t’Iakobe; aa le hañirahako afo o rova’eo, fonga habotse’e o anjomba’eo.
