Hosiya 10
1 Izrel bụ osisi vaịnị dị mma, nke na-amịta mkpụrụ nke ukwuu. Dịka mkpụrụ ya na-aba ụba, otu a ka o si amụba ebe ịchụ aja ya. Dịka ala ya na-abawanyekwa ụba otu a ka o si edoziri onwe ya nkume dị nsọ.
Israel is a vine with goodly branches, her fruit is abundant: according to the multitude of her fruits she has multiplied [her] altars; according to the wealth of his land, he has set up pillars.
2 Obi ha dị aghụghọ, ma ugbu a, ha ga-ata ahụhụ maka ikpe ọmụma ha. Onyenwe anyị ga-akwatu ebe nchụaja ha, ma mebikwaa ogidi nkume nsọ ha niile.
They have divided their hearts; now shall they be utterly destroyed: he shall dig down their altars, their pillars shall mourn.
3 Ma ugbu a, ha ga-asị, “Anyị enweghị eze, nʼihi na anyị anaghị atụ Onyenwe anyị egwu, ma olee ihe eze nwere ike ị mere anyị?”
Because now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not the Lord:
4 Ha na-ekwu okwu na-abaghị uru, were ịṅụ iyi na-agbakwa ndụ, ya mere ikpe ikpe jiri jupụta nʼebe niile, dịka ahịhịa ọjọọ nʼubi.
and what should a king do for us, speaking false professions [as his] words? he will make a covenant: judgement shall spring up as a weed on the soil of the field.
5 Ndị bi na Sameria ga-atụ ụjọ nʼihi chi nke nwa ehi a kpụrụ akpụ dị na Bet-Aven. Ndị ya ga-eruru ya ụjụ, otu a kwa ka ndị nchụaja ya rụrụ arụ ga-esi ruoru ya ụjụ, maka ebube nke a napụrụ ya.
The inhabitants of Samaria shall dwell near the calf of the house of On; for the people of it mourned for it: and as they provoked him, they shall rejoice at his glory, because he has departed from them.
6 Ha ga-eburu ha gaa Asịrịa, dịka onyinye ịnata ihuọma a ga-enye eze ukwu ahụ. A ga-emenye Ifrem ihere nʼihu, Izrel ga-ekpudokwa ihu nʼala maka mmekọrịta ya na ndị mba ọzọ.
And having bound it for the Assyrians, they carried it away as presents to king Jarim: Ephraim shall receive a gift, and Israel shall be ashamed of his counsel.
7 A ga-ala eze Sameria nʼiyi dịka irighiri osisi nʼelu mmiri niile,
Samaria has cast off her king as a twig on the surface of the water.
8 a ga-ebibicha ebe niile dị elu nke ihe ọjọọ, bụ Aven, ọ bụ ya bụ mmehie ndị Izrel, ogwu na uke ga-etolitekwa, nʼebe nchụaja ha. Mgbe ahụ ha ga-asị, ugwu ukwu niile, “Kpuchite anyị!” Sịkwa ugwu nta niile, “Dakwasị anyị!”
And the altars of On, the sins of Israel, shall be taken away: thorns and thistles shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.
9 “Site nʼụbọchị nke Gibea, gị Izrel nọ na mmehie, i nwebeghị ike site na mmehie ndị a wezuga onwe gị. Ọ bụ na agha agaghị eri ha bụ ndị na-eme ajọọ omume na Gibea?
From the time the hills [existed] Israel has sinned: there they stood: war [waged] against the children of iniquity
10 Aga m abịa buso ndị mmehie a agha, nye ya ahụhụ; mba ndị ọzọ ga-ebilite megide ha, taa ha ahụhụ nʼihi ajọ omume abụọ ha.
to chastise them shall not overtake them on the hill, the nations shall be gathered against them, when they are chastened for their two sins,
11 Ifrem bụ nne ehi a zụrụ azụ nke hụrụ ịzọcha ọka nʼanya, nʼihi ya, M ga-ekonye ịyagba nʼolu nʼolu ọma ya ahụ. Aga m agba Ifrem dịka ịnyịnya, Juda aghaghị ịkọ ala ubi Jekọb ga-akọze ala nye onwe ya.
Ephraim is a heifer taught to love victory, but I will come upon the fair part of her neck: I will mount Ephraim; I will pass over Juda in silence; Jacob shall prevail against him.
12 Ya mere, ghaanụ mkpụrụ ezi omume maka onwe unu, unu ga-aghọtakwa mkpụrụ ịhụnanya. Kọgharịakwanụ obi unu siri ike, nʼihi na ugbu a bụ oge ịchọ Onyenwe anyị, tutu ruo mgbe ọ bịara wụkwasị unu mmiri ozuzo dịka ezi omume.
Sow to yourselves for righteousness, gather in for the fruit of life: light you for yourselves the light of knowledge; seek the Lord till the fruits of righteousness come upon you.
13 Ma unu akụọla mkpụrụ ajọ omume; unu aghọtakwala ihe ọjọọ dịka ihe ubi. Unu eriela mkpụrụ osisi ụgha. Nʼihi na unu atụkwasịla obi unu nʼịdị ike nke onwe unu, na nʼịdị ọtụtụ nke ndị bụ dike nʼagha unu.
Therefore have you passed over ungodliness in silence, and reaped the sins of it? you have eaten false fruit; for you has trusted in your sins, in the abundance of your power.
14 Nʼihi ya, ụzụ nke ibu agha aghaghị ibili nʼetiti unu, ebe unu niile e wusiri ike ga-ada. Ọ ga-ada dịka Shalman si bibie Bet Abel nʼụbọchị agha, mgbe a tụpịara ndị bụ nne na ụmụ ha.
Therefore shall destruction rise up amongst your people, and all your strong places shall be ruined: as a prince Solomon [departed] out of the house of Jeroboam, in the days of battle they dashed the mother to the ground upon the children,
15 Ọ bụ ihe dị otu a ga-adakwasị gị, Betel, nʼihi na ajọ omume gị dị ukwuu. Mgbe chi ụbọchị ahụ bọrọ, a ga-ala eze Izrel nʼiyi kpamkpam.
thus will I do to you, O house of Israel, because of the unrighteousness of your sins.
