< Hosea 9 >

1 'Rejoice not, O Israel, be not joyful like the peoples, For thou hast gone a-whoring from thy God, Thou hast loved a gift near all floors of corn.
Ko mirebeke ry Israele, ko miriñariña an-kobaiñe manahake ondatio; nisitak’ aman’Añahare’o irehe, nitea’o ty tamben-karapilo an-toe-panongàñe eo.
2 Floor and wine-press do not delight them, And new wine doth fail in her,
Tsy hahaeneñe iareo o toe- pamofoha’eo naho o fipiritan-divaio, vaho hifotetse ama’e ty divay vao.
3 They do not abide in the land of Jehovah, And turned back hath Ephraim [to] Egypt, And in Asshur an unclean thing they eat.
Tsy ho tambatse an-tane’ Iehovà ao; fa hibalike mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo t’i Efraime, naho hilintseñe hàneñe tsy malio e Asore añe.
4 They pour not out wine to Jehovah, Nor are they sweet to Him, Their sacrifices [are] as bread of mourners to them, All eating it are unclean: For their bread [is] for themselves, It doth not come into the house of Jehovah.
Ie tsy mañilin-divay am’ Iehovà, naho tsy ho no’e ka o fisoroña’ iereoo, fa hoe mofom-pandala, fonga tiva ze mikama ama’e: a’ iareo avao izay, fe tsy mete mimoak’ amy anjomba’ Iehovày ao ty mahakama’ iareo ty amo arofo’ iareoo.
5 What do ye at the day appointed? And at the day of Jehovah's festival?
Ino ty hanoe’ areo amo sabadidam-pitontonañeo? naho amo andro namantaña’ Iehovào?
6 For, lo, they have gone because of destruction, Egypt gathereth them, Moph burieth them, The desirable things of their silver, Nettles possess them — a thorn [is] in their tents.
Ingo te nisitaha’ iereo ty fandrotsahañe; fe hatonto’ i Mitsraime, haleve’ i Mofe ho lovae’ o hisatseo ze nisoa amo volafoti’ iareoo; fatike ty hitiry amo kivoho’ iareoo.
7 Come in have the days of inspection, Come in have the days of recompence, Israel doth know! a fool [is] the prophet, Mad [is] the man of the Spirit, Because of the abundance of thine iniquity, And great [is] the hatred.
Fa tondroke o androm-pitilihañeo fa pok’eo o androm-pamaleañeo; hapota’ Israele izay; dagola ty mpitoky, minè t’indaty entoen-troke, ty amy fitoabora’ o hakeo’oo, bey ty falaiñañe azo.
8 Ephraim is looking [away] from My God, The prophet! a snare of a fowler [is] over all his ways, Hatred [is] in the house of his God.
Mpijilojilon’ Añahareko t’i Efraime fe fandri-bom-pitsindroke o sata’ i mpitokiy iabio, toe falaiñañe añ’anjomban’Añahare’e ao.
9 They have gone deep — have done corruptly, As [in] the days of Gibeah, He doth remember their iniquity, He doth inspect their sins.
Fa pok’ an-dalek’ ao iereo, naniva vatañe manahake tañ’andro’ i Gibà; toly ndra ho tiahi’e o hakeo’eo vaho ho tilihe’e o tahi’eo.
10 As grapes in a wilderness I found Israel, As the first-fruit in a fig-tree, at its beginning, I have seen your fathers, They — they have gone in [to] Baal-Peor, And are separated to a shameful thing, And are become abominable like their love.
Tendrek’ ahy hoe valòboke an-dratraratra añe t’Israele; nitreako o rae’eo hoe loham-boan-tsakoa amy fifotora’ey; fe nimoake e Baal-peore ie nitokañe ho amity raha mahameñatse, vaho naniva vatañe mira amo raha kokoa’ iareoo.
11 Ephraim [is] as a fowl, Fly away doth their honour, without birth, And without womb, and without conception.
I Efraime: hitiliñe añe hoe voroñe ty enge’ iareo, ho po-pisamahañe, naho hakoahañe an-koviñe ao vaho tsy am-piareñañe.
12 For though they nourish their sons, I have made them childless — without man, Surely also, woe to them, when I turn aside from them.
Ndra t’ie mañabey anake, hampandalàko, tsy hahatoly lahilahy raike; Eka! hankàñe am’iereo ka te isitahako.
13 Ephraim! when I have looked to the rock, Is planted in comeliness, And Ephraim [is] to bring out unto a slayer his sons.
I Efraime, manahake ty nahatreavako i Tsore, ie tinongy an-tane fanjàka; fe hakare’ i Efraime ho amy mpanjamañey o ana-dahi’eo.
14 Give to them, Jehovah — what dost Thou give? Give to them miscarrying womb, and dry breasts.
Atoloro iareo, ry Iehovà ze satri’o hatolotse: toloro hòviñe mampiboloañe naho fatroa kapaike.
15 All their evil [is] in Gilgal, Surely there I have hated them, Because of the evil of their doings, Out of My house I do drive them, I add not to love them, all their heads [are] apostates.
E Gilgale iaby o hakeo’eo, tañe ty namotorako falaiñañe am’ iareo, ami’ty halò-tsere’ o sata’eo ty handroahako iareo amy anjombakoy, tsy hikokoako ka; fonga mpiola o roandria’eo.
16 Ephraim hath been smitten, Their root hath dried up, fruit they yield not, Yea, though they bring forth, I have put to death the desired of their womb.
Linafa t’i Efraime, maike o vaha’eo, tsy hamokatse voa ka iereo; aa ndra t’ie mahatoly, haitoako ty sabon-koviñe noro’ iareo.
17 Reject them doth my God, Because they have not hearkened to Him, And they are wanderers among nations!
Hahifin’Añahare añe iereo, ami’ty tsy fañaoña’ iareo Aze; vaho ho mpirererere amo kilakila’ondatio añe.
