Hosea 9
1 O Israel, migakpɔ dzidzɔ abe ame bubuwo ene o, elabena miegbe miaƒe Mawu la hesa vɔ na mawu bubuwo, eye mielɔ̃ gbolowo ƒe nunanawo le lugbɔƒe ɖe sia ɖe.
Israel, nyle thou be glad, nyle thou make ful out ioie as puplis; for thou hast do fornicacioun fro thi God. Thou louedist meede on alle the cornflooris of wheete.
2 Lugbɔƒewo kple wainfiaƒewo mana nuɖuɖu amewo o, eye woƒe aha yeye agblẽ.
The cornfloor and pressour schal not feede hem, and wyn schal lie to hem.
3 Miaganɔ anyigba si nye Yehowa tɔ la dzi o, Efraim atrɔ ayi Egipte, eye woaɖu nu makɔmakɔwo le Asiria.
Thei schulen not dwelle in the lond of the Lord. Effraym turnede ayen in to Egipt, and eet defoulid thing among Assiriens.
4 Le afi sia la, womaɖe mɔ be miatsɔ wain asa vɔe na Yehowa o, elabena vɔsa siwo katã woawɔ le afi ma la ƒe ɖeke madze eŋu o; vɔsa siawo ŋuti mekɔ o, ɖeko wole abe kuteƒenuɖuɖu ene, eye ame siwo katã ɖui la, woawo hã ŋuti mekɔ o. Woate ŋu aɖu nu siawo be woaɖi ƒo, gake menye be woatsɔe asa vɔe le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me o.
Thei schulen not offre wyn to the Lord, and thei schulen not plese hym. The sacrificis of hem ben as breed of mourneris; alle that schulen ete it schulen be defoulid. For the breed of hem is to the lijf of hem; thei schulen not entre in to the hous of the Lord.
5 Ekema nu ka miawɔ le ŋkeke kɔkɔewo kple Yehowa ƒe ŋkekenyuiwo dzi?
What schulen ye do in the solempne dai, in the dai of the feeste of the Lord?
6 Elabena ne wosi le gbegblẽ nu la, Egipte aƒo wo nu ƒu, eye Memfis aɖi wo. Woƒe klosalonu veviwo alé ɣebia, eye aŋɔka avu atsyɔ woƒe agbadɔwo dzi.
For lo! thei ben goon out fro distriyng. Egipt schal gadere hem togidere, Memphis schal birie hem. A nettle schal enherite the desirable siluer of hem, a clote schal be in the tabernaclis of hem.
7 Toheɣi na Israel ɖo vɔ; nu vɔ̃ ƒe akɔntanaɣi ɖo vɔ, eye kpuie la, Israel anya nu si wònye. Esi wò nu vɔ̃wo li kɔ gleglegle, eye fuléle yɔ mewò fũu ta la, nyagblɔɖila zu bometsila, eye ame si me Mawu ƒe gbɔgbɔ le la zu tsukunɔ.
Daies of visitacioun ben comun, daies of yeldyng ben comun. Knowe ye, that Israel is a fool, a wood profete, a spiritual man, for the multitude of thi wickidnesse is also the multitude of woodnesse.
8 Meɖo nyagblɔɖilawo be woadzɔ Efraim ŋu, gake dukɔ la xe mɔ na wo le mɔ ɖe sia ɖe nu, woɖe woƒe fulélewo fia le dutoƒo, eye wowɔ esia hã le Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ me gɔ̃ hã.
The biholdere of Effraym with my God is a profete; a snare of fallyng is maad now on alle the weies of hym, woodnesse is in the hous of his God.
9 Nu tovo siwo wɔm nye dukɔ le la, le abe movinu siwo wowɔ le Gibea gbe aɖe gbe va yi ene. Mawu aɖo ŋku woƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo dzi, eye wòahe to na wo le woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.
Thei synneden deepli, as in the daies of Gabaa. The Lord schal haue mynde on the wickidnesse of hem, and schal visite the synnes of hem.
10 “Esi medo go Israel la, enɔ nam abe waintsetse le gbegbe ene; esi medo go wo fofowo la, enɔ nam abe gbotsetse gbãtɔ le gboti dzi ene. Ke esi wova Baal Peor gbɔ la, wotsɔ wo ɖokuiwo na ŋukpenalegba la eye woɖi gbɔ̃ abe legba si ŋu woku ɖo la ene.
Y foond Israel as grapis in desert, Y siy the fadris of hem as the firste applis of a fige tree, in the cop therof; but thei entriden to Belfegor, and weren alienyd in confusioun, and thei weren maad abhomynable as tho thingis whiche thei louyden.
11 Efraim ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe dzo, dzo abe xevi ene, eya ta womadzi vi o, womafɔ fu o, eye womado fu hã o
Effraym as a brid fley awei; the glorye of hem is of childberyng, and of the wombe, and of conseyuyng.
12 eye ne viwòwo tsi la, maxɔ wo le asiwò, atsrɔ̃ wo. Baba na mi, ne metrɔ dzo le mia gbɔ. Anye blanuiléle ƒe ŋkeke.
That if thei nurschen her sones, Y schal make hem with out children among men. But also wo to hem, whanne Y schal go awei fro hem.
13 Mekpɔ Efraim, wodɔe ɖe teƒe dzeani aɖe abe Tiro ene, gake Efraim akplɔ viawo ade asi na amewula.”
Y siy that Effraym was as Tire, foundid in fairnesse; and Effraym schal lede out hise sones to the sleere.
14 O Yehowa, nu ka nàtsɔ ana wò amewo? Nu siwo nàtsɔ na wo lae nye vidzidɔ si mate ŋu atsɔ fu o kple no siwo me notsi manɔ o.
Lord, yyue thou to hem; what schalt thou yyue to hem? yyue thou to hem a wombe with out children, and drie tetis.
15 “Woƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo wɔwɔ katã dze egɔme le Gilgal, eye afi mae nye hã megbe nu le wo gbɔ le. Manya wo le nye anyigba dzi le woƒe ahasiwɔwɔ ta. Nyemagalɔ̃ wo azɔ o, elabena woƒe amegãwo katã nye aglãdzelawo.
Alle the wickidnessis of hem ben in Galgal, for there Y hadde hem hateful; for the malice of her fyndyngis. Y schal caste hem out of myn hous; Y schal not leie to, that Y loue hem. Alle the princes of hem goen awei.
16 Efraim, tsɔtsrɔ̃ tu wò. Israel, wò kewo katã yrɔ, màgatse ku azɔ o, eye ne èdzi vi hã la, mawu ɖevi si gbɔ womelɔ̃ nu le o.”
Effraym is smyten, the roote of hem is dried vp; thei schulen not make fruyt. That thouy thei gendren, Y schal sle the moost louyd thingis of her wombe.
17 Nye Mawu agbe Israelviwo, elabena wogbe be yewomaɖo toe o. Woazu tsatsalawo, kple aƒemanɔsitɔwo le dukɔwo dome.
My God schal caste hem awey, for thei herden not hym; and thei schulen be of vnstable dwellyng among naciouns.
