Hosiya 9
1 Kada ku yi farin ciki, ya Isra’ila; kada ku yi murna kamar waɗansu al’ummai. Gama kun yi rashin aminci ga Allahnku; kuna son hakkokin karuwa a kowace masussuka.
Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, like the peoples; for thou hast played the harlot, [departing] from thy God; thou hast loved hire upon every grain-floor.
2 Masussukai da wuraren matsin inabi ba za su ciyar da mutane ba; sabon ruwan inabi zai kāsa musu.
The threshing-floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail her.
3 Ba za su ci gaba da zama a ƙasar Ubangiji ba; Efraim zai koma Masar yă kuma ci abinci marar tsarki a Assuriya.
They shall not dwell in Jehovah’s land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.
4 Ba za su zuba hadayun ruwan inabi ga Ubangiji ba, ba kuwa hadayunsu za su gamshe shi ba. Irin hadayun nan za su zama musu kamar burodin masu makoki; duk wanda ya ci su zai ƙazantu. Wannan abincin zai zama na kansu ne; ba zai zo cikin haikalin Ubangiji ba.
They shall not pour out wine-[offerings] to Jehovah, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted; for their bread shall be for their appetite; it shall not come into the house of Jehovah.
5 Me za ku yi a ƙayyadaddiyar ranar bukukkuwarku, a ranakun bikin Ubangiji?
What will ye do in the day of solemn assembly, and in the day of the feast of Jehovah?
6 Ko da sun kuɓuta daga hallaka, Masar za tă tattara su, Memfis kuma za tă binne su. Sarƙaƙƙiya za tă mamaye kayan azurfansu, ƙayayyuwa su tsiro a cikin tentunansu.
For, lo, they are gone away from destruction; [yet] Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them; their pleasant things of silver, nettles shall possess them; thorns shall be in their tents.
7 Kwanakin hukunci suna zuwa, kwanakin ba da lissafi suna a kusa. Bari Isra’ila su san da wannan. Saboda zunubanku sun yi yawa ƙiyayyarku kuma ta yi yawa, har ake ɗauka annabi wawa ne, mutumin da aka iza kuwa mahaukaci.
The days of visitation are come, the days of recompense are come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the man that hath the spirit is mad, for the abundance of thine iniquity, and because the enmity is great.
8 Annabi, tare da Allahna, su ne masu tsaro a bisa Efraim, duk da haka tarko na jiransa a dukan hanyoyi, da kuma ƙiyayya a cikin gidan Allahnsa.
Ephraim [was] a watchman with my God: as for the prophet, a fowler’s snare is in all his ways, [and] enmity in the house of his God.
9 Sun nutse da zurfi cikin lalaci, kamar a kwanakin Gibeya. Allah zai tuna da muguntarsu yă kuma hukunta su saboda zunubansu.
They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.
10 “Sa’ad da na sami Isra’ila, ya zama kamar samun inabi a hamada; sa’ad da na ga kakanninku, ya zama kamar ganin’ya’yan itace na farko a itacen ɓaure. Amma sa’ad da suka zo Ba’al-Feyor, suka keɓe kansu wa gumaka bankunya sai suka zama abubuwan banƙyama kamar abubuwan da suke ƙauna.
I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the first-ripe in the fig-tree at its first season: but they came to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves unto the shameful thing, and became abominable like that which they loved.
11 Darajar Efraim za tă yi firiya tă tafi kamar tsuntsu, ba haihuwa, ba juna biyu, ba ɗaukar ciki.
As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird: there shall be no birth, and none with child, and no conception.
12 Ko da sun yi renon’ya’ya, zan sa su yi baƙin cikin kowannensu. Kaitonsu sa’ad da na juya musu baya!
Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, so that not a man shall be left: yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!
13 Na ga Efraim, kamar birnin Taya, da aka kafa a wuri mai daɗi. Amma Efraim zai fitar da’ya’yansu ga masu yanka.”
Ephraim, like as I have seen Tyre, is planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring out his children to the slayer.
14 Ka ba su, ya Ubangiji Me za ka ba su? Ka ba su mahaifar da za su yi ɓarin ciki da busassun nono.
Give them, O Jehovah—what wilt thou give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
15 “Saboda dukan muguntarsu a Gilgal, na ƙi su a can. Saboda ayyukansu na zunubi, zan kore su daga gidana. Ba zan ƙara ƙaunace su ba; dukan shugabanninsu’yan tawaye ne.
All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I hated them: because of the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of my house; I will love them no more; all their princes are revolters.
16 An ka da Efraim, saiwarsu ta bushe, ba sa ba da amfani. Ko da sun haifi’ya’ya zan kashe waɗanda suka fi ƙauna.”
Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay the beloved fruit of their womb.
17 Allahna zai ƙi su saboda ba su yi masa biyayya ba; za su zama masu yawo a cikin al’ummai.
My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto him; and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
