< Hosea 11 >
1 “Esi Israel nye ɖevi la, melɔ̃e, eye Egipte meyɔ vinye la tsoe, abe vinye ŋutsu ene.
“Israeli ali mwana, ndinamukonda, ndipo ndinayitana mwana wanga kuti atuluke mu Igupto.
2 Zi ale si meyɔe la, zi nenema ke wòtrɔ megbe dem, hele vɔ sam na Baalwo, eye wòle dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ dom na legbawo.
Koma ndimati ndikamapitiriza kuyitana iwo amandithawa kupita kutali. Ankapereka nsembe kwa Abaala ndipo ankafukiza lubani kwa mafano.
3 Nyee lé Efraim ƒe alɔnu hefia azɔlizɔzɔe, gake menyae be nyee kpɔ ye ta o.
Ndi Ine amene ndinaphunzitsa Efereimu kuyenda, ndipo ndinawagwira pa mkono; koma iwo sanazindikire kuti ndine amene ndinawachiritsa.
4 Mekplɔ wo kple dɔmenyo ƒe ka, eye mebla wo kple lɔlɔ̃. Meɖe kɔkuti la le woƒe kɔ, eye mebɔbɔ na nuɖuɖu wo.
Ndinawatsogolera ndi zingwe zachifundo cha anthu ndi zomangira za chikondi; ndinachotsa goli mʼkhosi mwawo ndipo ndinawerama nʼkuwadyetsa.
5 “Nye dukɔ agatrɔ ayi Egipte, eye Asiria aɖu wo dzi, elabena wogbe dzimetɔtrɔ.
“Sadzabwerera ku Igupto, koma Asiriya ndiye adzakhala mfumu yawo pakuti akana kutembenuka.
6 Aʋa adzɔ le woƒe duwo me; woagbã woƒe agbo sesẽwo, eye woatɔ te woƒe ɖoɖowo.
Malupanga adzangʼanima mʼmizinda yawo, ndipo adzawononga mipiringidzo ya zipata zawo nadzathetseratu malingaliro awo.
7 Nye dukɔ ɖoe kplikpaa be yeagbem. Esia ta ne woyɔ Mawu, Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la gɔ̃ hã la, womakpɔ xɔxɔ o.
Anthu anga atsimikiza zondifulatira Ine. Ngakhale atayitana Wammwambamwamba, sizidzatheka kuti Iye awakwezenso.
8 “O, nye Efraim, aleke mate ŋu atsɔ wò ana? Israel, aleke mate ŋu aɖe asi le ŋuwò? Aleke mawɔ agbe wò abe Adma kple Zeboyim ene? Nye dzi le avi fam le menye, eye nye dzi xɔ dzo ɖe mia ŋuti be maɖe mi!
“Kodi ndingakusiye bwanji iwe Efereimu? Kodi ndingakupereke bwanji iwe Israeli? Kodi ndingakuchitire bwanji zimene ndinachitira Adima? Kodi ndingathe bwanji kukuchitira zimene ndinachitira Zeboimu? Mtima wanga wakana kutero; chifundo changa chonse chikusefukira.
9 Gbeɖe, nyemahe to na mi abe ale si nye dziku helĩhelĩ le gbɔgblɔm nam ene o, eye nyemagbã Efraim gudugudu hã o, elabena Mawue menye, eye menye amegbetɔe menye o. Nyee nye Kɔkɔetɔ si le mia dome eye nyemava le dziku me be magblẽ nu o.
Sindidzalola kuti ndikulange ndi mkwiyo wanga woopsa, kapena kutembenuka ndi kuwononga Efereimu. Pakuti Ine ndine Mulungu osati munthu, Woyerayo pakati panu. Sindidzabwera mwaukali.
10 Azɔ la, dukɔ la adi Yehowa. Aɖe gbe abe dzata ene. Ne eɖe gbe la, viawo atrɔ agbɔ kple dzodzo nyanyanya tso ɣetoɖoƒe.
Iwo adzatsatira Yehova; Iye adzabangula ngati mkango. Akadzabangula, ana ake adzabwera akunjenjemera kuchokera kumadzulo.
11 Woatrɔ tso Egipte abe xeviwo ƒe ha gã aɖe ene. Nenema ke woatrɔ tso Asiria abe ahɔnɛ ƒe ha gã aɖe ene. Magakplɔ wo ayi woƒe aƒewo mee.” Yehowae gblɔe.
Adzabwera akunjenjemera ngati mbalame kuchokera ku Igupto, ngati nkhunda kuchokera ku Asiriya. Ine ndidzawakhazikanso mʼnyumba zawo,” akutero Yehova.
12 Efraim ƒo xlãm kple alakpa, eye Israel ƒe aƒe la ƒo xlãm kple beble. Yuda gadze aglã ɖe Mawu ŋuti, eye wòtsi tsitre ɖe anukwaretɔ kple Kɔkɔetɔ la gɔ̃ hã ŋu.
Efereimu wandizungulira ndi mabodza, nyumba ya Israeli yandizungulira ndi chinyengo. Ndipo Yuda wawukira Mulungu, wawukira ngakhale Woyerayo amene ndi wokhulupirika.
