< Hosiya 4 >

1 Ku ji maganar Ubangiji, ku Isra’ilawa, gama Ubangiji yana da tuhumar da zai kawo a kan ku waɗanda suke zama a ƙasar. “Babu aminci, babu ƙauna, babu yarda da Allah a cikin ƙasar.
Hear the word of the LORD, all of you children of Israel: for the LORD has a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2 Akwai la’ana ce kawai, yin ƙarya da kisa, yin sata da zina; sun wuce gona da iri, kisankai a kan kisankai.
By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood touches blood.
3 Saboda wannan ƙasar tana makoki, kuma dukan waɗanda suke zama a cikinta sun lalace; namun jeji da tsuntsayen sararin sama da kuma kifin teku suna mutuwa.
Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwells therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.
4 “Amma kada wani mutum yă kawo tuhuma, kada wani mutum yă zargi wani, gama mutanenka suna kama da waɗanda suke kawo tuhume-tuhume a kan firist ne.
Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for your people are as they that strive with the priest.
5 Kuna tuntuɓe dare da rana, annabawa ma suna tuntuɓe tare da ku. Saboda haka zan hallaka mahaifiyarku,
Therefore shall you fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with you in the night, and I will destroy your mother.
6 mutanena suna hallaka saboda jahilci. “Domin kun ƙi neman sani, ni ma na ƙi ku a matsayin firistocina; domin kun ƙyale dokar Allahnku, ni ma zan ƙyale’ya’yanku.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you shall be no priest to me: seeing you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children.
7 Yawan ƙaruwar firistoci, haka suke yawan zunubi a kaina; sun yi musaya Ɗaukakarsu da wani abin kunya.
As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.
8 Suna ciyar da kansu a kan zunuban mutanena suna kuma haɗamar muguntarsu.
They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity.
9 Zai kuwa zama, kamar yadda mutane suke, haka firistoci suke. Zan hukunta dukansu saboda al’amuransu in kuma sāka musu saboda ayyukansu.
And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings.
10 “Za su ci amma ba za su ƙoshi ba; za su shiga karuwanci amma ba za su ƙaru ba, gama sun rabu da Ubangiji don su ba da kansu
For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the LORD.
11 ga karuwanci, ga tsoho da kuma sabon ruwan inabi, waɗanda suka ɗauke ganewar mutanena.
Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.
12 Sun nemi shawarar gunkin da aka yi da itace suka kuwa sami amsa daga sanda. Halin karuwanci yakan ɓad da su; sun yi rashin aminci ga Allahnsu.
My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff declares unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms has caused them to go astray, and they have gone a whoring from under their God.
13 Suna miƙa hadaya a kan ƙwanƙolin duwatsu suna kuma ƙone hadayu a kan tuddai, a ƙarƙashin itatuwa oak, aduruku da katambiri, inda inuwa take da daɗi. Saboda haka’ya’yanku mata suka juya wa karuwanci surukanku mata kuma suka shiga yin zina.
They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adultery.
14 “Ba zan hukunta’ya’yanku mata sa’ad da suka juya ga yin karuwanci ba, balle surukanku mata, sa’ad da suka yi zina, gama mazan da kansu suna ma’amala da karuwai suna kuma miƙa hadaya tare da karuwai na masujada, mutane marasa ganewa za su lalace!
I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people that does not understand shall fall.
15 “Ko da yake kun yi zina, ya Isra’ila, kada Yahuda ya yi laifi. “Kada ku tafi Gilgal; kada ku haura zuwa Bet-Awen. Kuma kada ku rantse cewa, ‘Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye!’
Though you, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Judah offend; and come not all of you unto Gilgal, neither go all of you up to Bethaven, nor swear, The LORD lives.
16 Isra’ilawa masu taurinkai ne, kamar karsana mai taurinkai. Yaya Ubangiji zai iya kiwonsu kamar tumaki a makiyaya mai ɗanyar ciyawa?
For Israel slides back as a backsliding heifer: now the LORD will feed them as a lamb in a large place.
17 Efraim ya haɗa kai da gumaka; ku ƙyale shi kurum!
Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.
18 Ko ma sa’ad da abin shansu ya ƙare, sai suka ci gaba da karuwancinsu; masu mulkinsu suna ƙaunar abin kunya.
Their drink is sour: they have committed whoredom continually: her rulers with shame do love, Give all of you.
19 Guguwa za tă share su, hadayunsu kuma za su jawo musu abin kunya.
The wind has bound her up in her wings, and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
