< Oseas 13 >
1 Idi nagsao ti Efraim, adda iti panagtigerger. Intak-okna ti bagina idiay Israel, ngem nagbasol ti Efraim gapu iti panagdaydayawda kenni Baal ket natay isuna.
When once Ephraim spoke, [all] trembled, so high was he exalted in Israel; but he offended through Ba'al, and he died.
2 Ita, ad-adda pay ti panagbasolda. Nagaramidda kadagiti landok nga imahen manipud kadagiti pirakda, dagiti didiosen a napintas iti pannakaaramidna, amin dagitoy ket aramid dagiti agkitkitikit. Kuna dagiti tattao kadakuada, 'Dagitoy a lallaki nga agidatdaton ket umag-agepda kadagiti sinan-urbon a baka.’
And now they yet continue to sin, and have made themselves molten images of their silver, idols according to their own imagining, every one of them the work of the artisan: they say to them, They that sacrifice men may kiss the calves.
3 Isu a maiyarigdanto kadagiti ulep iti agsapa, a kas iti linnaaw a nasapa a mapukaw, kas iti taep a maiyangin manipud iti pagirikan, ken kas iti asuk a rumuar iti simborio.
Therefore shall they be as the morning cloud, and as the dew that early passeth away, as the chaff that is driven by the whirlwind out of the threshing-floor, and as smoke out of a window.
4 Ngem siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo, a nangiruar kadakayo manipud iti daga ti Egipto. Masapul nga awan ti sabali a bigbigenyo a Dios no di siak laeng; masapul a bigbigenyo a malaksid kaniak, awanen ti sabali a mangisalakan.
Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt: and no god but me shalt thou know, and there is no saviour beside me.
5 Naam-ammokayo idiay let-ang, iti daga a kasta unay ti kinamagana.
I myself did provide for thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought.
6 Idi naaddaankayo ti pagpaaraban, ket nabsogkayo; ket idi nabsogkayo, timmangsit ti pusoyo; gapu iti dayta a rason ket nalipatandak.
When they came to their pasture, they became sated; they were sated, and their heart was lifted up: therefore have they forgotten me.
7 Nagbalinak a kas iti maysa a leon kadakuada; a kas iti maysa a leopardo ket agurayakto iti igid ti dalan.
And now I will be unto them as a lion: as a leopard will I lie in wait by the way.
8 Darupekto ida a kas iti panangdarup ti maysa nga oso a natakawan kadagiti annakna. Wakwakekto dagiti barukongda, ket sadiay alun-onekto ida a kas iti maysa a leon— kasla narungsot nga ayup a mangrangrangkay kadakuada.
I will meet them as a bear bereaved of her whelps, and I will rend their closed-up heart; and I will devour them there like a lioness, the beasts of the field shall rend them.
9 Daytoy ti umadanin a pannakadadaelmo, Israel, gapu ta bimmusorka kaniak, a katulongam.
Thou hast destroyed thyself, O Israel; for against me, against thy helper [didst thou rebel.]
10 Sadino itan ti ayan ti arim, tapno maisalakannaka kadagiti amin a siudadmo? Sadino ti ayan dagiti mangidadaulom, nga imbagam kaniak, 'Ikkannak ti ari ken kadagiti prinsipe'?
Where then is now thy king, that he may save thee in all thy cities? and thy judges, since thou saidst, Give me a king, and princes?
11 Iti ungetko inikkanka iti maysa nga ari, ngem iti pungtotko, impanawko isuna.
I give thee a king in my anger, and take him away in my wrath.
12 Naidulin dagiti kinadakes ti Efraim; naidulin dagiti basbasolna.
Bound up is the iniquity of Ephraim, treasured up is his sin.
13 Dumtengto kenkuana dagiti ut-ot ti panagpasngay, ngem isuna ket saan a nasirib nga anak, ta inton tiempo a maipasngay, saan isuna a rummuar iti aanakan.
The pains of a travailing woman shall come upon him; he is an unwise son; for he will not remain steadfast at the time of the breaking forth of the child.
14 Ispalekto kadi ida manipud iti bileg ti lubong dagiti natay? Ispalekto kadi ida manipud iti ipapatay? Patay, sadino ti ayan dagiti didigram? Iyegmo ida ditoy. Lubong dagiti natay, sadino ti ayan ti pagdadaelmo? Iyegmo ditoy. Ti kinamanangngaasi ket nailinged manipud kadagiti matak.” (Sheol )
From the power of the grave would I ransom them, from death would I redeem them; [but now] where are thy plagues, O death, where is thy pestilence, O grave? compassion shall be hidden from my eyes. (Sheol )
15 Uray no narangrang-ay ti Efraim ngem kadagiti kakabsatna, umayto ti angin iti daya; agpuyupoyto ti angin ni Yahweh manipud iti let-ang. Agmaganto ti ubbog ti Efraim, ken matiananto ti bubonna. Samsamento dagiti kabusorna ti pagiduldulinanna kadagiti amin a napapateg a banag.
Though he grow luxuriantly in the green meadows, the east wind shall come, the wind of the Lord, rising up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up: the same shall plunder the treasure of all precious vessels.
16 Madusanto ti Samaria, ta nagsukir iti Diosna. Matnagdanto babaen iti kampilan; marumrumekto dagiti ubbingda ken maburayrayanto dagiti masikog a babbai.
Samaria shall meet her punishment; for she hath rebelled against her God: by the sword shall they fall; their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant women shall be ripped up.
