Hosea 11
1 I KO Iseraela wa kamalii, alaila, ua aloha aku au ia ia, A kahea aku au i kuu keiki e hele mai Aigupita mai.
When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son.
2 Like me lakou i kahea aku ai ia lakou, pela no lakou i hele ae ai mai o lakou aku; Kaumaha aku la lakou i na Baala, a kuni i ka mea ala i na kii kalaiia.
As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto the Baals, and burned incense to graven images.
3 Ua ao aku au ia Eperaima i ka hele, e alakai ana ia lakou ma ko lakou lima; Aka, aole lakou i ike, owau ka i hoola ia lakou.
And I it was that taught Ephraim to walk, — He took them upon his arms, — but they knew not that I healed them.
4 Ua alako aku au ia lakou me na kaula o ke kanaka a me na apo o ke aloha: A ua lilo au no lakou i mea like me na mea e lawe aku ana I ka auamo mai luna aku o ko lakou a-i, A ua waiho iho la au i ka ai imua o lakou.
I drew them with bands of a man, with cords of love; and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I gently caused them to eat.
5 Aole ia e hoi hou i ka aina o Aigupita, Aka, o ka Asuria, oia kona alii; No ka mea, ua hoole no ia i ka hoi hou ana,
He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king; for they refused to return [to me];
6 A e haule mai ka pahikaua maluna o kona mau kulanakauhale, A e ai iho i kona mau lala, a e hoopau, no ko lakou manao.
and the sword shall turn about in his cities, and shall consume his bars, and devour [them], because of their own counsels.
7 A ua manao kuu poe kanaka e hoi ihope mai o'u aku la; A ua kahea aku lakou ia lakou la i ka Mea kiekie, Aole kekahi i hookiekie aku ia ia.
Yea, my people are bent upon backsliding from me: though they call them to the Most High, none at all exalteth [him].
8 Pehea la wau e hookuu aku ai ia oe, e Eperaima? Pehea la wau e hoolilo ai ia oe, e ka Iseraela? Pehea la wau e hana aku ai ia oe e like me Adema? Pehea hoi wau e hooku ai ia oe e like me Zeboima? Ua huliia ko'u naau iloko o'u, Ua hoala pu ia hoi kuu minamina.
How shall I give thee over, Ephraim? [how] shall I deliver thee up, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? [how] shall I set thee as Zeboim? My heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together.
9 Aole au e hoopai aku me kuu inaina nui, Aole au e huli ae e luku aku ia Eperaima; No ka mea, owau no ke Akua, aole he kanaka, Maloko ou ka Mea Hemolele; Aole au e hele mai me ka huhu.
I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not again destroy Ephraim; for I am God, and not man, — the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not come in anger.
10 Mamuli o Iehova lakou e hele ai; E uwo ana no ia e like me ka liona: A i ka wa e uwo ai oia, alaila e haalulu na keiki mai ke komohana mai.
They shall walk after Jehovah; he shall roar like a lion; when he shall roar, then the children shall hasten from the west:
11 E haalulu lakou me he manu la mai Aigupita mai, Me he manu nunu la mai ka aina o Asuria mai: A e hoonoho au ia lakou maloko o ko lakou mau hale iho, wahi a Iehova.
they shall hasten as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will cause them to dwell in their houses, saith Jehovah.
12 Ke hoopuni nei o Eperaima ia'u me ka hoopunipuni, A o ka hale o ka Iseraela me ka wahahee: Aka, o ka Iuda, ke hooalii nei oia me ke Akua, A ke kupaa nei oia me ka poe pono.
Ephraim encompasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit; but Judah yet walketh with God, and with the holy things of truth.
