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 Lord’s message, Israelites, for the Lord has brought charges against the inhabitants of the land, for there is no fidelity, nor true love, 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.
but cursing, lying, and murder, stealing, committing adultery, and deeds of violence, and acts of bloodshed quickly follow each other.
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 the land mourns, all its inhabitants languish, the wild animals and the birds of the skies, even the fish of the sea are dying.
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 one bring charges, let none accuse, for your people are like those, who bring charges against a priest.
5 Kuna tuntuɓe dare da rana, annabawa ma suna tuntuɓe tare da ku. Saboda haka zan hallaka mahaifiyarku,
You stumble by day, and the prophet stumbles with you by 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 being destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you have rejected knowledge I reject you from being priest to me. Since you have forgotten the teaching of your God, I also will forget your children.
7 Yawan ƙaruwar firistoci, haka suke yawan zunubi a kaina; sun yi musaya Ɗaukakarsu da wani abin kunya.
The more priests there are, the more they sin against me. I will change their dignity to dishonour.
8 Suna ciyar da kansu a kan zunuban mutanena suna kuma haɗamar muguntarsu.
They feed on the sin offerings of my people, so they hunger after their guilt.
9 Zai kuwa zama, kamar yadda mutane suke, haka firistoci suke. Zan hukunta dukansu saboda al’amuransu in kuma sāka musu saboda ayyukansu.
Thus it comes to be, like people, like priest: I will visit upon each punishment for their ways, and their deeds I will repay them.
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
They will eat and not be satisfied, they will sleep around but stay childless, because they have abandoned the Lord to give themselves to
11 ga karuwanci, ga tsoho da kuma sabon ruwan inabi, waɗanda suka ɗauke ganewar mutanena.
prostitution. Old and new wine take away the understanding.
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 own people ask counsel of a piece of wood! A stick gives them advice! For a spirit of prostitution has led them astray, they commit adultery against 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.
On the heights of the mountains they sacrifice, and on the hills they burn incense under oaks and poplars and terebinths, for their shade is so pleasant. Therefore your daughters become cult prostitutes, and your daughters-in-law 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 for committing prostitution, nor your daughters-in-law for adultery. Your men visit prostitutes, sacrifice with cult prostitutes. So a people without understanding come to ruin!
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 commit adultery, Israel, let not Judah become guilty. Do not go to Gilgal, do not go up to Beth-aven, nor swear an oath, ‘As 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?
Like a wilful heifer, Israel is stubborn. Can the Lord now feed them as he would a lamb in a broad pasture?
17 Efraim ya haɗa kai da gumaka; ku ƙyale shi kurum!
Ephraim is wedded to idols. Leave them alone!
18 Ko ma sa’ad da abin shansu ya ƙare, sai suka ci gaba da karuwancinsu; masu mulkinsu suna ƙaunar abin kunya.
When their drinking is over they sleep with the cult prostitutes, their rulers love shameful ways.
19 Guguwa za tă share su, hadayunsu kuma za su jawo musu abin kunya.
A windstorm will wrap them in its wings and they will be ashamed of their sacrifices.
