Hosea 10
1 O KA Iseraela, he kumu waina, i ulu palahalaha, e hua ana i ka hua nona iho; E like me ka nui o kona hua, pela no ia i hoomahuahua ai i na kuahu; E like me ka maikai o kona aina, pela no ia i hoonani ai i na kii.
Israel is a luxuriant vine that puts forth his fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars. As their land has prospered, they have adorned their sacred stones.
2 Ua kanalua ko lakou naau; Ano e hoopaiia lakou; E hoohiolo no ia i ko lakou kuahu, E hoopau no ia i ko lakou mau kii.
Their heart is divided. Now they will be found guilty. He will demolish their altars. He will destroy their sacred stones.
3 Ano hoi, e olelo auanei lakou, Aohe o kakou alii, No ka mea, aole o kakou i makau aku ia Iehova; Heaha ka mea a ke alii e hana mai ai no kakou?
Surely now they will say, "We have no king; for we do not fear the LORD; and the king, what can he do for us?"
4 Ua olelo lakou i na olelo hoohiki wahahee i ka hana ana i ka berita; A ua ulu mai ka hoahewa e like me ka laau make ma na auwaha o ke kula.
They make promises, swearing falsely in making covenants. Therefore judgment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of the field.
5 E makau auanei na kanaka o Samaria no na keikibipi o Betavena: No ka mea, e auwe auanei kona poe kanaka no ia mea; A e haalulu na kahuna no kona nani, No ka mea, ua nalowale ia.
The inhabitants of Samaria will be in terror for the calves of Beth Aven; for its people will mourn over it, Along with its priests who rejoiced over it, for its glory, because it has departed from it.
6 A e laweia'ku hoi ia i Asuria i makana no ke alii no ka enemi: A e kau mai ka hilahila ia Eperaima, A e hilahila hoi ka Iseraela no kona manao iho.
It also will be carried bound to Assyria as tribute for a great king. Ephraim will receive shame, and Israel will be ashamed of his own counsel.
7 A o Samaria, ua okiia'ku kona alii, e like me ka hua maluna o ka wai.
Samaria and her king float away, like a twig on the water.
8 A e hoopauia na heiau o Avena, ka hewa o ka Iseraela: E kupu mai auanei ka laau kuku a me ka puakala maluna o ko lakou mau kuahu; A e olelo aku lakou i na mauna, E uhi mai ia makou; A i na puu, E hiolo mai maluna o makou.
The high places also of Beth Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed. The thorn and the thistle will grow on their altars. Then they will say to the mountains, "Fall on us." and to the hills, "Cover us."
9 E ka Iseraela, ua hana hewa oe mai na la o Gibea mai; Ilaila lakou i ku ai: A o ke kaua ana ma Gibea i na keiki hewa, aole anei ia e hiki aku io lakou la?
"Israel, you have sinned from the days of Gibeah. There they remained. The battle against the children of iniquity doesn't overtake them in Gibeah.
10 Eia ko'u manao, e hahau aku ia lakou; A e akoakoa mai na kanaka e ku e ia lakou, I kuu hoopaa ana ia lakou, no ko lakou mau hewa elua.
I am coming to discipline them; and the nations will be gathered against them, when they are disciplined for their two transgressions.
11 A o Eperaima, ua like ia me ka bipi wahine opiopio i laka, a makemake hoi e hehi i ka palaoa: Aka, e hele aku no au maluna o kona a-i maikai: E hooholo au ia Eperaima; A e hana o Iuda me ka oopalau, A na Iakoba e kuikui i puupuu lepo nona.
Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh; so I will put a yoke on her beautiful neck. I will set a rider on Ephraim. Judah will plow. Jacob will break his clods.
12 E lulu oukou no oukou iho, ma ka pono, E ohi oukou ma ka lokomaikai; E waele i ko oukou mahinaai; No ka mea, he manawa keia e imi ia Iehova, A hiki mai ia, a ao aku i ka pono ia oukou.
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness. Break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek the LORD, until he comes and rains righteousness on you.
13 Ua mahi oukou ma ka pono ole, a ua ohi oukou i ka hewa; A e ai oukou i ka hua o ka wahahee: No ka mea, ua hilinai oe ma kou aoao iho, A i ka lehulehu o kou poe ikaika.
You have plowed wickedness. You have reaped iniquity. You have eaten the fruit of lies, for you trusted in your way, in the multitude of your mighty men.
14 Nolaila, e kupu mai auanei ka haunaele iwaena o kou poe kanaka, A e hoohioloia kou mau wahi paa a pau loa, E like me Salemana i hoohiolo ai ia Betarebela i ka la o ke kaua; I ulupaia'i ka makuwahine me kana mau keiki.
Therefore a battle roar will arise among your people, and all your fortresses will be destroyed, as Shalman destroyed Beth Arbel in the day of battle. The mother was dashed in pieces with her children.
15 Pela oia e hana mai ai ia oukou, ma Betela, no ko oukou hewa nui: I kakahiaka e oki loa ia'ku ke alii o ka Iseraela.
So Bethel will do to you because of your great wickedness. At daybreak the king of Israel will be destroyed.
