< Hosea 9 >

1 Wee Isiraeli-rĩ, tiga gũkena; tiga gũkũngũĩra ta ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ. Nĩgũkorwo ũkoretwo ũtarĩ mwĩhokeku harĩ Ngai waku; wee nĩwendete mũcaara wa maraya, ũkaũcaragia kũrĩa guothe kũhuhagĩrwo ngano.
May not you rejoice O Israel - to rejoicing like the peoples for you have prostituted yourself from with God your you have loved [the] hire of a prostitute on all threshing floors of grain.
2 Ihuhĩro cia ngano na ihihĩro cia ndibei itikahũũnia andũ, o na gũtigakorwo na ndibei ya mũhihano.
Threshing floor and wine-press not it will feed them and new wine it will fail it.
3 Matigaatũũra bũrũri wa Jehova; Efiraimu agaacooka bũrũri wa Misiri, na arĩe irio irĩ thaahu kũu Ashuri.
Not they will remain in [the] land of Yahweh and he will return Ephraim Egypt and in Assyria unclean [food] they will eat.
4 Matigaitĩra Jehova maruta ma ndibei, kana magongona mao mamũkenie. Kũrĩo magongona ta macio makaahaana ta mũgate wa andũ megũcakaya; arĩa othe makaamarĩa nĩmakanyiitwo nĩ thaahu. Irio icio igaakorwo irĩ ciao o ene; itikareehwo hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
Not they will pour out to Yahweh - wine and not they will be pleasing to him sacrifices their [will be] like bread of mourning to them all [those who] eat it they will make themselves unclean for bread their [will be] for self their not it will go [the] house of Yahweh.
5 Mũgeeka atĩa mũthenya ũrĩa mwamũre wa ciathĩ cianyu, mĩthenya ĩyo ya gĩathĩ kĩa Jehova?
What? will you do to [the] day of an appointed feast and to [the] day of [the] festival of Yahweh.
6 O na mangĩkaahonoka kwanangwo, andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri nĩmakamacookereria, nao andũ a Memufisi mamathike. Congʼe nĩguo ũgaacooka handũ ha igĩĩna ciao cia betha, nayo mĩigua ĩhumbĩre hema ciao.
For there! they have gone from [the] devastation Egypt it will gather them Memphis it will bury them treasure of silver their nettle[s] it will take possession of them thorn[s] [will be] in tents their.
7 Matukũ ma kũherithio nĩmakinyu, ĩĩ, matukũ ma kũrĩhania nĩmakinyĩte. Isiraeli nĩamenye ũguo. Tondũ mehia manyu nĩ maingĩ mũno, na rũmena rwanyu rũkaneneha mũno, mũnabii akoonagwo arĩ mũndũ mũkĩĩgu, na mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ na ũrathi akonwo arĩ mũgũrũki.
They have come - [the] days of punishment they have come [the] days of retribution let them know Israel [is] a fool the prophet [is] mad [the] person of the spirit on [the] greatness of iniquity your and great animosity.
8 Mũnabii nĩwe ũtuĩtwo mũrangĩri wa Efiraimu nĩ Ngai wakwa; no rĩrĩ, mĩtego ĩmwetereire njĩra-inĩ ciake ciothe, na rũmena rũkamweterera nyũmba-inĩ ya Ngai wake.
[was] a watchman Ephraim with God my a prophet a trap of a fowler [is] on all ways his animosity [is] in [the] house of God his.
9 Nĩmatoonyereire, makarikĩra mũno ũũru-inĩ, o ta ũrĩa meekire matukũ-inĩ ma Gibea. Nake Ngai nĩakaririkana waganu wao, na amaherithie nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao.
They have made deep they have dealt corruptly like [the] days of Gibeah he will remember iniquity their he will punish sins their.
10 “Rĩrĩa ndaamenyire Isiraeli, kwarĩ ta mũndũ onete thabibũ werũ-inĩ; rĩrĩa ndonire maithe manyu-rĩ, kwarĩ ta mũndũ onete matunda ma mũtĩ wa mũkũyũ marĩa maambaga kwĩrua. No rĩrĩa Isiraeli mookire Baali-Peoru, nĩmeyamũrĩire mũhianano ũcio wa gĩconoko, na magĩthũka, magĩtuĩka o ta kĩndũ kĩu mendete.
Like grapes in the wilderness I found Israel like early fig[s] on a fig tree at beginning its I saw ancestors your they they came Baal Peor and they devoted themselves to shame and they were detestable things as loved they.
11 Riiri wa Efiraimu ũkoombũka ta nyoni ũũre: gũtigakorwo ũhoro wa gũciara, kana gũkuua nda, o na kana kũgĩa nda.
Ephraim like bird it will fly away glory their from child bearing and from womb and from conception.
12 O na mangĩkaarera ciana-rĩ, nĩngaciũraga ciothe. Rĩrĩa ngaagarũrũka ndĩmatige, kaĩ nĩmagakorwo na haaro-ĩ!
That except they will bring up children their and I will bereave them from everyone for also woe! to them when depart I from them.
13 Nĩnyonete Efiraimu, ahaandĩtwo handũ hega, o ta Turo. No rĩrĩ, Efiraimu akaaruta ciana ciake, acineane kũrĩ mũũragani.”
Ephraim just as I have seen to Tyre [is] planted in pastureland and Ephraim to bring out to [one who] kills children his.
14 Mahe, Wee Jehova; no nĩ kĩĩ ũkũmahe? Mahe nda iria ihunaga, na ũmahe nyondo iria itarĩ iria.
Give to them O Yahweh what? will you give give to them a womb [which] miscarry and breasts [which] dry up.
15 “Nĩ ũndũ wa waganu wao wothe marĩ kũu Giligali, nĩkĩo ndamamenire marĩ o kũu. Nĩ ũndũ wa ciĩko ciao cia mehia-rĩ, nĩngamarutũrũra moime nyũmba yakwa, na ndigacooka kũmenda rĩngĩ; atongoria ao othe nĩ aremi.
All wickedness their [is] in Gilgal for there I hated them on [the] wickedness of deeds their from house my I will drive out them not I will repeat to love them all leaders their [are] rebellious.
16 Andũ a Efiraimu nĩacine nĩ mbaa, naguo mũri wao nĩũhoohete, maticiaraga maciaro. O na mangĩciara ciana-rĩ, nĩngooraga ciana icio ciao mendete.”
He has been struck Ephraim root their it has dried up fruit (not *Q(K)*) they will produce! also if they [masc] will give birth! and I will put to death [the] precious things of [masc] womb their.
17 Ngai wakwa nĩakamarega, nĩgũkorwo matiamwathĩkĩire; magaatuĩka andũ a kũũrũũraga ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ.
He will reject them God my for not they have listened to him so they may be wanderers among the nations.
