Hosea 5
1 “Miɖo to nya sia, O, mi nunɔlawo kple Israel ƒe aƒe, miƒu to anyi; O, mi fia ƒometɔwo katã, miɖo to, mebe mi katã miatsrɔ̃! Elabena mieble nye dukɔ la le Mizpa, mienye ɖɔ woɖo ɖe Tabɔr to dzi
“Zwanini lokhu, lina baphristi! Lalelani, lina bako-Israyeli. Lalela, wena ndlu yobukhosi! Ukwahlulela lokhu kumelane lani: Kade lingumjibila eMizipha, umambule owendlalwe eThabhori.
2 kple ʋe goglo si woɖe ɖe Sitin, gake migaŋlɔ be, be maɖo eteƒe na ame sia ame ɖe nu si wòwɔ la ta o.
Abahlamuki batshonile ekubulaleni, ngizabalaya bonke.
3 Menya Efraim nyuie, eye Israel hã meɣla ɖem o. O Efraim, ètrɔ zu gbolo, eye Israel gblẽ kɔ ɖo na eɖokui.
Mina ngazi konke ngo-Efrayimi; u-Israyeli kafihlakalanga kimi. Efrayimi, khathesi ususenza ubufebe; u-Israyeli uxhwalile.
4 “Miaƒe nuwɔwɔwo mate ŋu ana miatrɔ ava miaƒe Mawu la gbɔ o, elabena gbolowɔwɔ ƒe gbɔgbɔ le miaƒe dzi me ke, eye le esia ta miate ŋu anya Yehowa o.
Izenzo zabo kazibavumeli ukubuyela kuNkulunkulu wabo. Umoya wobufebe usezinhliziyweni zabo; kabamamukeli uThixo.
5 Israel ƒe aglãdzedze ɖi ɖase tso eŋuti le nye ʋɔnu. Efraim kple Yuda woadze anyi le woƒe nu vɔ̃ ta.
Ukuzigqaja kuka-Israyeli kufakaza okubi ngaye; abako-Israyeli, kanye laye u-Efrayimi, bayakhubeka ezonweni zabo. LoJuda laye ukhubeka labo
6 Mlɔeba la, woava do kple woƒe alẽwo kple nyiwo be woasa vɔ na Yehowa, gake womakpɔe o, elabena eɖe eɖokui ɖa tso wo gbɔ.
Lapho behamba lemihlambi yezimvu zabo leyenkomo ukuyadinga uThixo, kabayikumfumana; uzisusile kubo.
7 Wometo nyateƒe na Yehowa o, elabena wodzi ahasiviwo. Azɔ dzinu yeye ƒe ŋkekenyui aɖu wo kple woƒe nunɔamesiwo.
Kabathembekanga kuThixo; bazala abantwana ngokungemthetho. Khathesi imikhosi yabo yokuThwasa Kwezinyanga izabaqothula kanye lamasimu abo.
8 “Miku lãdzo le Gibea, eye miaku kpẽ le Rama. Mido aʋaɣli sesĩe le Bet Aven. O Benyamin, kpɔ megbewò ɖa!
Khalisani icilongo eGibhiya, lophondo eRama. Hlabani umkhosi wempi eBhethi-Aveni; khokhela, wena Bhenjamini.
9 Woagbã Efraim gudugudu ne ʋɔnudrɔ̃gbe la ɖo. Le Israel ƒe toawo dome la, nu siwo mena wo nya la ava eme godoo.
U-Efrayimi uzachithwa ngosuku lokwahlulela. Phakathi kwezizwana zako-Israyeli ngimemezela okuliqiniso.
10 Yuda ƒe amegãwo le abe ame siwo ŋea liƒo ɖe eme la ene, eya ta matrɔ nye dɔmedzoe akɔ ɖe wo dzi bɔbɔbɔ abe tɔɖɔɖɔ ene,
Abakhokheli bakoJuda banjengalabo abatshedisa amatshe omngcele. Ngizathululela ulaka lwami phezu kwabo njengesikhukhula samanzi.
11 eye woaŋe Efraim, agbãe gudugudu, elabena eɖoe kplikpaa be yeadze legbawo yome.
U-Efrayimi uncindezelwe, wanyathelwa ekwahluleleni, ehlose ukulandela izithombe.
12 Maɖu Efraim, agblẽ edome abe ale si gbagbladza ɖua avɔe ene, eye magblẽ Yuda dome abe ale si ŋɔ ɖua aŋgba ene.
Mina nginjengenondo ku-Efrayimi, njengokubola ebantwini bakoJuda.
13 “Esi Efraim kpɔ eƒe dɔléle, eye Yuda hã kpɔ eƒe abiwo ta la, Efraim trɔ ɖe Asiria ŋu, eye wòdɔ ame ɖo ɖe fiagã la gbɔ, gake mate ŋu ada gbe le mia ŋu, ana miaƒe abiwo naku o.
Kwathi u-Efrayimi ebona umkhuhlane wakhe, loJuda ebona izilonda zakhe, u-Efrayimi waya e-Asiriya, wathumela ilizwi loncedo enkosini enkulu. Kodwa kayenelisi ukukwelapha, kayenelisi ukwelapha izilonda zakho.
14 Manye dzata ɖe Efraim ŋu, eye manye dzatavi ɖe Israel ƒe aƒe la ŋu. Nye, ɛ̃, nye ŋutɔ mavuvu wo ʋayaʋaya adzo; malé wo adzoe, eye ame aɖeke maxɔ wo le asinye o.
Ngoba ngizakuba njengesilwane ku-Efrayimi, lanjengesilwane esikhulu kuJuda. Ngizabadabudabula ngisuke ngihambe; ngizabathwala ngihambe labo, kungekho ozabahlenga.
15 Magblẽ wo ɖe aboyo me, atrɔ yi aƒe va se ɖe esime wolɔ̃ be yewodze agɔ, atrɔ ɖe ŋutinye, aɖe kuku nam, elabena ne fukpekpe dze wo dzi la, woadi nye mɔ.”
Ngizabuyela endaweni yami baze balivume icala labo. Njalo bazabudinga ubuso bami; esizini lwabo bazangidinga impela.”
