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 Ephraim spoke, there was trembling. He exalted himself in Israel, but when he became guilty through Baal, 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.’
Now they sin more and more, and have made themselves molten images of their silver, even idols according to their own understanding, all of them the work of the craftsmen. They say of them, ‘They offer human sacrifice and 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 they will be like the morning mist, like the dew that passes away early, like the chaff that is driven with the whirlwind out of the threshing floor, and like the smoke out of the chimney.
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 your God from the land of Egypt; and you shall acknowledge no god but me, and besides me there is no savior.
5 Naam-ammokayo idiay let-ang, iti daga a kasta unay ti kinamagana.
I knew you 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.
According to their pasture, so were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted. Therefore they have forgotten me.
7 Nagbalinak a kas iti maysa a leon kadakuada; a kas iti maysa a leopardo ket agurayakto iti igid ti dalan.
Therefore I am like a lion to them. Like a leopard, I will lurk by the path.
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 like a bear that is bereaved of her cubs, and will tear the covering of their heart. There I will devour them like a lioness. The wild animal will tear them.
9 Daytoy ti umadanin a pannakadadaelmo, Israel, gapu ta bimmusorka kaniak, a katulongam.
You are destroyed, Israel, because you are against me, against your helper.
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 is your king now, that he may save you in all your cities? And your judges, of whom you said, ‘Give me a king and princes’?
11 Iti ungetko inikkanka iti maysa nga ari, ngem iti pungtotko, impanawko isuna.
I have given you a king in my anger, and have taken him away in my wrath.
12 Naidulin dagiti kinadakes ti Efraim; naidulin dagiti basbasolna.
The guilt of Ephraim is stored up. His sin is stored up.
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 sorrows of a travailing woman will come on him. He is an unwise son, for when it is time, he doesn’t come to the opening of the womb.
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 h7585)
I will ransom them from the power of Sheol. I will redeem them from death! Death, where are your plagues? Sheol, where is your destruction? “Compassion will be hidden from my eyes. (Sheol h7585)
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 is fruitful among his brothers, an east wind will come, the breath of the LORD coming up from the wilderness; and his spring will become dry, and his fountain will be dried up. He will plunder the storehouse of treasure.
16 Madusanto ti Samaria, ta nagsukir iti Diosna. Matnagdanto babaen iti kampilan; marumrumekto dagiti ubbingda ken maburayrayanto dagiti masikog a babbai.
Samaria will bear her guilt, for she has rebelled against her God. They will fall by the sword. Their infants will be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant women will be ripped open.”
