Hosiya 7
1 a duka sa’ad da zan warkar da Isra’ila, zunuban Efraim za su tonu za a kuma bayyana laifofin Samariya. Suna ruɗu, ɓarayi sukan fasa su shiga gidaje,’yan fashi sukan yi fashi a tituna;
“When I give healing to Israel, Then the iniquity of Ephraim is revealed, And the wickedness of Samaria, For they have worked falsehood, And a thief comes in, A troop has stripped off in the street,
2 amma ba su gane cewa na tuna da dukan ayyukan muguntarsu ba. Zunubansu sun kewaye su; kullum suna a gabana.
And they do not say to their heart, [That] I have remembered all their evil, Now their doings have surrounded them, They have been before My face.
3 “Suna faranta wa sarki zuciya da muguntarsu, shugabanni kuma da ƙarairayinsu.
With their wickedness they make a king glad, And with their lies—princes.
4 Dukansu mazinata ne suna ƙuna kamar matoya wadda mai gashin burodi ba ya bukata yă tura mata wuta daga cuɗe kullu har kumburinsa.
All of them [are] adulterers, Like a burning oven of a baker, He ceases from stirring up after kneading the dough, until its leavening.
5 A ranar bikin sarkinmu shugabanni sukan bugu da ruwan inabi, yă yi cuɗanya da masu ba’a.
A day of our king! Princes have defiled themselves [with] the poison of wine, He has drawn out his hand with scorners.
6 Zukatansu suna kamar matoya; sukan kusace shi da wayo. Muguwar aniyarsu takan yi ta ci dukan dare; da safe sai ta ƙuna kamar harshen wuta.
For they have drawn near, Their heart [is] as an oven In their lying in wait—their baker sleeps all night, Morning! He is burning as a flaming fire.
7 Dukansu suna da zafi kamar matoya; suna kashe masu mulkinsu. Dukan sarakunansu sukan fāɗi, kuma babu waninsu da yake kira gare ni.
All of them are warm as an oven, And they have devoured their judges, All their kings have fallen, There is none calling to Me among them.
8 “Efraim yana cuɗanya da al’ummai; Efraim waina ne mai fāɗi da ba a juye ba.
Ephraim! He mixes himself among peoples, Ephraim has been an unturned cake.
9 Baƙi sun tsotse ƙarfinsa, amma bai gane ba. Gashi kansa ya cika da furfura, amma bai lura ba.
Strangers have devoured his power, And he has not known, Also old age has sprinkled [itself] on him, And he has not known.
10 Girmankan Isra’ila ya ba da shaida a kansa, amma duk da haka bai dawo ga Ubangiji Allahnsa ko yă neme shi ba.
And the excellence of Israel has been humbled to his face, And they have not turned back to their God YHWH, Nor have they sought Him for all this.
11 “Efraim yana kama da kurciya, marar wayo, marar hankali, yanzu yana kira ga Masar, yanzu yana juyewa ga Assuriya.
And Ephraim is as a simple dove without heart, Egypt they called on—[to] Asshur they have gone.
12 Sa’ad da suka tafi, zan jefa ragata a kansu; zai janye su ƙasa kamar tsuntsayen sararin sama. Sa’ad da na ji suna tafiya tare, zan kama su.
When they go I spread over them My net, As the bird of the heavens I bring them down, I discipline them as their congregation has heard.
13 Kaitonsu, domin sun kauce daga gare ni! Hallaka za tă aukar musu, domin sun tayar mini! Na ƙudura in cece su amma suna faɗar ƙarya a kaina.
Woe to them, for they wandered from Me, Destruction to them, for they transgressed against Me, And I ransom them, and they have spoken lies against Me,
14 Ba sa yin mini kuka da zuciyarsu amma suna ihu a kan gadajensu. Sukan taru wurin ɗaya don hatsi da ruwan inabi amma su juya mini baya.
And have not cried to Me with their heart, but howl on their beds; They assemble themselves for grain and new wine, They turn aside against Me.
15 Na horar da su na kuma ƙarfafa su, amma sun ƙulla mini maƙarƙashiya.
And I instructed—I strengthened their arms, And concerning Me they think evil!
16 Ba sa juya ga Mafi Ɗaukaka; suna kama da tanƙwararren baka. Za a kashe shugabanninsu da takobi saboda banzan maganganunsu. Saboda wannan za a wulaƙanta su a ƙasar Masar.
They turn back—not to the Most High, They have been as a deceitful bow, Their princes fall by sword, From the insolence of their tongue, This [is] their derision in the land of Egypt!”
