Hosea 12
1 Efraim ƒua du kplɔa ya ɖo, etia ɣedzeƒeya yome ŋkekea katã, eye wòdzia alakpa kple ŋutasesẽ ɖe edzi. Ebla nu kple Asiria, eye wòɖo ami ɖe Egipte.
Efereimu amadya mpweya; tsiku lonse amasaka mphepo ya kummawa ndipo amachulukitsa mabodza ndi chiwawa. Amachita mgwirizano ndi Asiriya ndipo amatumiza mphatso za mafuta a olivi ku Igupto.
2 Yehowa tsɔ nya ɖe Yuda hã ŋuti. Woahe to na Yakob hã le eƒe mɔ vɔ̃wo ta, eye woaɖo eƒe nuwɔnawo teƒe nɛ.
Yehova akuyimba mlandu Yuda; Iye adzalanga Yakobo molingana ndi makhalidwe ake, adzamulanga molingana ndi ntchito zake.
3 Le dɔ me la, elé nɔvia ƒe afɔkpodzi, eye esi wòtsi zu ŋutsu la, ete kame kple Mawu.
Akali mʼmimba mwa amayi ake, Yakobo anagwira chidendene cha mʼbale wake; iye atakula analimbana ndi Mulungu.
4 Ɛ̃, ete kame kple mawudɔla, eye wòɖu edzi gɔ̃ hã. Efa avi heɖe kuku nɛ be wòayra ye. Edo go Mawu le Betel, ƒo nu kplii le afi ma.
Yakobo analimbana ndi mngelo ndipo anapambana; analira napempha kuti amukomere mtima. Mulungu anakumana naye ku Beteli ndipo anayankhula naye kumeneko,
5 Yehowa, Mawu Ŋusẽkatãtɔ si ŋkɔe nye Yehowa la ƒo nu nɛ,
Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse, Yehova ndiye dzina lake lotchuka!
6 eya ta mitrɔ gbɔ va miaƒe Mawu la gbɔ. Minɔ agbe le nyateƒetoto kple lɔlɔ̃ me, eye miɖo ŋu ɖe miaƒe Mawu la ŋu be wòawɔ nu geɖe na mi.
Koma inu muyenera kubwerera kwa Mulungu wanu; pitirizani chikondi ndi chiweruzo cholungama, ndipo muzidikira Mulungu wanu nthawi zonse.
7 Alakpanudanu le asitsalawo si, wolɔ̃a amebaba.
Munthu wamalonda amagwiritsa ntchito masikelo achinyengo; iyeyo amakonda kubera anthu.
8 Efraim dana gblɔna be: “Kesinɔtɔ gã aɖee menye! Le nye kesinɔnu gbogboawo ta la, womakpɔ vodada alo nu vɔ̃ le menye o.”
Efereimu amadzitama ponena kuti, “Ndine wolemera kwambiri; ndili ndi chuma chambiri. Palibe amene angandiloze chala chifukwa cha kulemera kwanga.”
9 “Yehowa ɖeka kple Mawu ɖeka ma, si ɖe wò tso kluvinyenye me le Egipte lae menye, eye nye kee ana mianɔ agbadɔwo me abe ale si miewɔnɛ ƒe sia ƒe le Agbadɔmeŋkekenyuiɖuɖu me ene.
“Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wako amene ndinakutulutsa mu Igupto. Ndidzakukhazikaninso mʼmatenti, monga munkachitira masiku aja pa nthawi ya zikondwerero zanu.
10 Medɔ nye nyagblɔɖilawo be woaxlɔ̃ nu mi to ŋutega, drɔ̃ekuku kple lododowo me.”
Ndinayankhula ndi aneneri, ndinawaonetsa masomphenya ambiri, ndipo ndinawawuza mafanizo kudzera mwa iwo.”
11 Ɖe vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi le Gilgal mahã? Vavã wonye bometsilawo. Wotsɔ nyitsuwo sa vɔe le Gilead. Ɛ̃, woagbã woƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo ali kɔe ɖe agble dzi.
Kodi Giliyadi ndi woyipa? Anthu ake ndi achabechabe! Kodi amapereka nsembe za ngʼombe zazimuna ku Giligala? Maguwa awo ansembe adzakhala ngati milu ya miyala mʼmunda molimidwa.
12 Yakob si yi ɖe Siria, eye Israel subɔ be yeaɖe srɔ̃, eye be yeakpɔ ga abia nyɔnu ta la, ekplɔ alẽ.
Yakobo anathawira ku dziko la Aramu, Israeli anagwira ntchito kuti apeze mkazi, ndipo anaweta nkhosa kuti akwatire mkaziyo.
13 Yehowa kplɔ eƒe dukɔ la do goe le Egipte to nyagblɔɖila aɖe dzi, eye wòdzɔ wo ŋuti, fia mɔ wo,
Yehova anagwiritsa ntchito mneneri kuti atulutse Israeli mu Igupto; kudzera mwa mneneriyo Iye anawasamalira.
14 gake Efraim do dɔmedzoe na Yehowa vevie. Eƒe Aƒetɔ la ana eƒe nu vɔ̃wo ƒe ʋu nava eƒe ta dzi, eye wòaɖo eteƒe nɛ.
Koma Efereimu wamukwiyitsa kwambiri. Nʼchifukwa chake Yehova adzawalanga ndi imfa. Adzawalanga chifukwa anamuchititsa manyazi kwambiri.
