Oseas 11
1 ”Idi agtutubo pay laeng ti Israel, inayatko isuna ket inawagak ti anakko manipud iti Egipto.
“When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
2 No ad-adda a maay-ayabanda, ad-adda met nga umad-adayoda. Nagidatonda kadagiti Baal ken nagpuorda iti insenso kadagiti didiosen.
They called to them, so they went from them. They sacrificed to the Baals, and burnt incense to engraved images.
3 Nupay kasta, siak ti nangisuro iti Efraim a magna. Siak ti nangay-aywan kadakuada, ngem saanda nga ammo nga inay-aywanak ida.
Yet I taught Ephraim to walk. I took them by their arms, but they didn’t know that I healed them.
4 Indalanko ida babaen iti asi ken panagayat. Nagbalinak idi a kas iti maysa a tao a nangpalukay iti bosal kadagiti sangida ket nagrukobak a nangpakan kadakuada.
I drew them with cords of a man, with ties of love; and I was to them like those who lift up the yoke on their necks; and I bent down to him and I fed him.
5 Saandanto kadi nga agsubli iti daga ti Egipto? Saandanto kadi nga iturayan ti Asiria gapu ta agkedkedda nga agsubli kaniak?
“They won’t return into the land of Egypt; but the Assyrian will be their king, because they refused to repent.
6 Agtinnagto ti kampilan kadagiti siudadda ket dadaelen daytoy ti balunet dagiti ruanganda; dadaelento daytoy ida gapu kadagiti bukodda a panggep.
The sword will fall on their cities, and will destroy the bars of their gates, and will put an end to their plans.
7 Ingkeddeng dagiti tattaok a tumallikod kaniak. Uray no umawagda kaniak, siak nga adda idiay ngato, awanto ti mangtulong kadakuada.
My people are determined to turn from me. Though they call to the Most High, he certainly won’t exalt them.
8 Kasano a baybay-anka, Efraim? Kasano nga iyawatka, Israel? Kasano a pagbalinenka a kas iti Adma? Kasano a pagbalinenka a kas iti Zeboim? Nagbaliw ti pusok iti kaunggak; simken ti amin nga asik.
“How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within me, my compassion is aroused.
9 Saankon nga ipatungpal ti rungsot ti pungtotko; saankon a dadaelen manen ti Efraim. Ta siak ket Dios a saan ket a tao; siak ti Nasantoan kadakayo, ket saanak nga umay a sipupungtot.
I will not execute the fierceness of my anger. I will not return to destroy Ephraim, for I am God, and not man—the Holy One amongst you. I will not come in wrath.
10 Magnadanto a sumurot kaniak, a ni Yahweh. Agngerngerakto a kas iti leon. Pudno nga agngerngerakto, ket umayto nga agtigtigerger dagiti tattao manipud iti laud.
They will walk after the LORD, who will roar like a lion; for he will roar, and the children will come trembling from the west.
11 Umaydanto nga agtigtigerger a kas iti billit manipud idiay Egipto, kas iti kalapati manipud iti daga ti Asiria. Pagnaedekto ida kadagiti pagtaenganda.” Daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
They will come trembling like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will settle them in their houses,” says the LORD.
12 “Linikmutnak ti Efraim iti kinaulbod ken ti balay ti Israel iti panangallilaw. Ngem agtaltalinaedto latta ti Juda kaniak, a Dios, ket napudnoda kaniak, a Nasantoan.”
Ephraim surrounds me with falsehood, and the house of Israel with deceit. Judah still strays from God, and is unfaithful to the Holy One.
