< 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 childe, then I loued him, and called my sonne out of Egypt.
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.
They called them, but they went thus from them: they sacrificed vnto Baalim, and burnt incense to 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.
I ledde Ephraim also, as one shoulde beare them in his armes: but they knewe 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 led them with cordes of a man, euen with bandes of loue, and I was to them, as hee that taketh off the yoke from their iawes, and I laide the meat vnto them.
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 no more returne into the lande of Egypt: but Asshur shalbe his King, because they refused to conuert.
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 sworde shall fall on his cities, and shall consume his barres, and deuoure them, because of their owne 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.
And my people are bent to rebellion against me: though they called them to the most hie, yet none at all would exalt 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.
Howe shall I giue thee vp, Ephraim? howe shall I deliuer thee, Israel? how shall I make thee, as Admah? howe shall I set thee, as Zeboim? mine heart is turned within mee: my repentings are rouled 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 wil not execute ye fiercenesse of my wrath: I will not returne to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man, the holy one in the middes of thee, and I will not enter into the citie.
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 walke after the Lord: he shall roare like a lyon: when hee shall roare, then the children of the West shall feare.
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 feare as a sparrow out of Egypt, and as a doue of the lande of Asshur, and I will place them in their houses, sayth the Lord.
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 copasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Iudah yet ruleth with God, and is faithfull with the Saints.
