Hosiya 5
1 “Ku ji wannan, ku firistoci! Ku kasa kunne, ku Isra’ilawa! Ku saurara, ya ku gidan sarauta! Wannan hukunci yana a kanku, kun zama tarko a Mizfa, ragar da aka shimfiɗa a kan Tabor.
Hear this, ye priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ear, O house of the king: for this judgment is for you; for ye have been a snare at Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.
2 ’Yan tawaye sun yi zurfi cikin kisan gilla. Zan hore su duka.
And they have plunged themselves in the corruption of apostasy, but I will be a chastiser of them all.
3 Na san Efraim ƙaf; Isra’ila ba a ɓoye take a gare ni ba. Efraim, yanzu ka juya ka shiga karuwanci; Isra’ila ta lalace.
I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me; for now, Ephraim, thou hast committed whoredom; Israel is defiled.
4 “Ayyukansu ba su ba su dama su koma ga Allahnsu ba. Halin karuwanci yana cikin zuciyarsu; ba su yarda da Ubangiji ba.
Their doings do not allow them to return unto their God; for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they know not Jehovah.
5 Girmankan Isra’ila yana ba da shaida a kansu; Isra’ilawa, har ma Efraim, sun yi tuntuɓe a cikin zunubinsu; Yahuda ma ya yi tuntuɓe tare da su.
And Israel's pride doth testify to his face; and Israel and Ephraim shall fall by their iniquity: Judah also shall fall with them.
6 Sa’ad da suka tafi tare da garkunan shanu, tumaki da awakinsu don su nemi Ubangiji, ba za su same shi ba; ya janye kansa daga gare su.
They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek Jehovah; but they shall not find [him]: he hath withdrawn himself from them.
7 Su marasa aminci ne ga Ubangiji; suna haihuwar shegu. Yanzu bukukkuwar Sabon Watansu za su cinye su da gonakinsu.
They have dealt treacherously against Jehovah; for they have begotten strange children: now shall the new moon devour them, with their allotted possessions.
8 “Amon kakaki a Gibeya, ƙaho a Rama. Ku yi kirarin yaƙi a Bet-Awen; ku ja gaba, ya Benyamin.
Blow the horn in Gibeah, the trumpet in Ramah; cry aloud [at] Beth-aven: behind thee, O Benjamin!
9 Efraim za tă zama kango a ranar hukunci. A cikin kabilan Isra’ila na yi shelar abin da yake tabbatacce.
Ephraim shall be a desolation in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which is sure.
10 Shugabannin Yahuda suna kamar waɗanda suke matsar da duwatsun shaidar da aka sa a kan iyaka ne. Zan zubo musu da fushina a kansu kamar rigyawar ruwa.
The princes of Judah are become like them that remove the landmark: I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.
11 An danne Efraim, an murƙushe ta a shari’a ta ƙudura ga bin gumaka.
Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judgment, because in selfwill he walked after the commandment [of man].
12 Na zama kamar asu ga Efraim, kamar ruɓa ga mutanen Yahuda.
And I will be unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.
13 “Sa’ad da Efraim ya ga ciwonsa, Yahuda kuwa miyakunta, sai Efraim ya juya ga Assuriya, ya aika wurin babban sarki don neman taimako. Amma bai iya warkar da kai ba, bai iya warkar da miyakunka ba.
When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah his sore, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb; but he was unable to heal you, nor hath he removed your sore.
14 Gama zan zama kamar zaki ga Efraim, kamar babban zaki ga Yahuda. Zan yage su kucu-kucu in tafi; zan kwashe su, ba wanda zai kuɓutar da su.
For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah. I, I will tear and go away; I will carry off, and there shall be none to deliver.
15 Sa’an nan zan koma wurina sai sun yarda da laifinsu. Za su kuma nemi fuskata; cikin azabansu za su nace da nemana.”
I will go away, I will return to my place, till they acknowledge their trespass, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.
