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, priests! Attend, Israelites! Listen, royal family! For you is the judgment: a snare you have become at Mizpeh, and a net spread out on Tabor,
2 ’Yan tawaye sun yi zurfi cikin kisan gilla. Zan hore su duka.
the rebels are deep in slaughter, but I will discipline 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, Israel is not hidden from me, for you, Ephraim, have committed prostitution and 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 deeds do not permit them to return to their God. For the spirit of prostitution is within them, they do not know the Lord.
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.
Israel’s arrogance testifies against them, Israel, even Ephraim, stumble in their sin, and Judah also stumbles 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.
With their sheep and their cattle they will go to seek the Lord but they will not find him, he has withdrawn from them,
7 Su marasa aminci ne ga Ubangiji; suna haihuwar shegu. Yanzu bukukkuwar Sabon Watansu za su cinye su da gonakinsu.
for they have been untrue to the Lord, their children are strangers. Their new moon festivals will soon destroy them and their fields.
8 “Amon kakaki a Gibeya, ƙaho a Rama. Ku yi kirarin yaƙi a Bet-Awen; ku ja gaba, ya Benyamin.
Blow the trumpet in Gibeah, the clarion in Ramah! Raise the alarm in Beth-aven: we are with you, Benjamin!
9 Efraim za tă zama kango a ranar hukunci. A cikin kabilan Isra’ila na yi shelar abin da yake tabbatacce.
Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of punishment, concerning the tribes of Israel I make known what is certain.
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 Israel have become like thieves who move boundary stones. On them I will pour out my wrath like a flood.
11 An danne Efraim, an murƙushe ta a shari’a ta ƙudura ga bin gumaka.
Ephraim will be oppressed, crushed by judgment, for they are determined to go after vanity.
12 Na zama kamar asu ga Efraim, kamar ruɓa ga mutanen Yahuda.
So I am like a moth to Ephraim, like rottenness to the house of Judah.
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.
For when Ephraim saw their sickness and Israel their wound, Ephraim turned to Assyria, to its patron king. But he cannot heal you nor relieve you of your wound.
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 myself will be like a lion to Ephraim, like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, yes I, will rend and go my way, I will carry off and none will rescue.
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 return to my place, until in remorse they seek my presence. When they are in distress they will quickly seek me,
