Hosea 5

1 Pristi vahe'mota ama nanekea antahiho! Israeli vahe'mota tamagesa anteta antahiho! Kini vahe'mota tamagesa anteta antahiho! Keaga tamagri huneramante. Na'ankure tamagra Mizpa vahetera krifu anagi anteankna huta monora havi anumzante Tabori agonafina hunentaze.

“Listen, you priests! And you [other] Israeli people, you also pay attention! And you who are members of the king’s family, [you also need to] listen, because [I am going to] judge you! Your [worshiping idols] has been [like] [MET] a trap for [the people at] Mizpah [town]; it has been [like][MET] a net spread out [to catch people] at Tabor [Mountain].

2 Hazenke zamita rama'a vahe zamazeri haviza hu'nazagu ana zantera Nagra kna zana tami'na tamazeri fatgo hugahue.

You have done many evil things, so I will punish all of you.

3 Hagi Efraemi vahera Nagra zamage'na antahi'na hu'noanki, Israeli vahe'mota Nagri navurera frara oki'naze. Efraemi vahe'mota monko anemo'zama nehazaza huta savri huta vano nehuta, Israeli vahe'mota tamazeri pehana hu'naze.

I know [everything about the people of] Israel; nothing that they have done is hidden from me. Because [the people of] Israel have given themselves [to worshiping idols] like [MET] prostitutes [give themselves to the men they sleep with], they have become unacceptable to me.

4 Hagi kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza zamavu'zmava'zamo zamazeri antrako hige'za rukrahera hu'za Anumza zmimofontera nomaze. Na'ankure savri monko avu'avazama hu'zamo zamagu'afina me'negeno, Ra Anumzamofona ke'za antahi'za nosaze.

Because they [like to do evil] things, they will not return to [me], their God. Like prostitutes [who have abandoned their husbands] [MET], they have [IDM] abandoned [MET] me; they do not [even] know me, Yahweh.

5 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama zamavufaga rama hu' zamavu'zamava nehaza zamo, zamagri avu'ava zana huama nehie. Hagi Israeli vahe'ene, Efraemi vahe'mo'za zamagri'a kumimo zamazeri tanafa nehanige'za, Juda vahe'mo'zanena magoka tanafa hugahaze.

[It is as though] their being proud testifies [PRS] against them. The sins that [the people of] Israel have committed [are like a heavy load that] causes them to stumble, and [the people of] Judah stumble with them.

6 Hagi Ra Anumzamofo avesizanku hakenaku sipisipi afu kevu'zamine, bulimakao afu kevu'zmine egahazanagi, Ra Anumzamofona eme ke'za eriforera osugahaze. Na'ankure Agra ko zamatreno zamagrira vu'ne.

They will come to worship [me], Yahweh, bringing their herds of sheep and cattle, but they will not [be able to] find me, because I have abandoned them.

7 Zamagra Ra Anumzamofona tamage hu'za avariri fatgoa osu'naze. Na'ankure zamagra savri mofavrerami kasezmante'naze. Menina kasefa ikante'ma ne'zama kreza nene'za musema hu'za mono'ma hu'zamo'a zamazeri havizantfa nehuno, hozazminena eri haviza hugahie.

They have abandoned me; and their children do not belong to me [MET]. So [they will not be able to celebrate their festivals at] the new moons [because I] will destroy them and [the crops in] their fields.

8 Hagi pazivete'ma tro'ma hu'nea ufena Gibea kumateti nerenkeno, Rama kumatetira ufena nerenkeno, Bet-Aveni kumatetira ranke huta kezankea nehuta, tagra Benzameniga kavaririta hatera vugahune huta hiho.

Blow the [rams’] horns in Gibeah [town] [and blow] the trumpets in Ramah [town]! Warn [the people at] Beth-Aven [town]; you warriors of the tribe of Benjamin, lead the troops [into the battle].

9 Hagi knazama amino vahe'ma azeri havizama hu knarera, Efraemi vahe'mo'za ka'ma kokamo'ma nehiaza hu'za havizantfa hugahaze. Hagi Israeli vahe amunompima huama'ma nehua zamo'a tamage huno fore hugahie.

Israel will be ruined on the day that [I] destroy them. What I am telling to the tribes of Israel will certainly [happen].

10 Hagi Juda ugagota kva vahe'mo'za kanagi kama akasi'za mopama eri haviama huza musufama nesaza vahe kna hu'naze. E'ina hu'neankina narimpama ahe'zamante'zana tima tagitreankna hu'na zamagri zamagofetu narimpa ahe'zana erikaha hutregahue.

[Because] the leaders of Judah [seized some land that belonged to Israel], they are like [SIM] those who move boundary markers [to get more land for themselves]; [so] I will punish them severely [MET].

11 Hagi keagama refkohu knafina Efraemi vahera knazamo'a zamazeri havizantfa hugahie. Na'ankure kaza osu havi anumzamofo amagera ante'za nevazagu anara hugahaze.

And [the people of] Israel will suffer greatly when I punish them, because they are [very] determined to worship idols.

12 Hagi Nagra havi (moth) kfamo kukena hagenkro kru hiankna hu'na Efraemi vahera zamazeri haviza nehu'na, kasri zamo kasrino keonke'za eri haviza hiaza hu'na Juda vahera zamazeri haviza hugahue.

I will destroy [the people of] Israel like [SIM] ([larvae of] moths/cockroaches) destroy wool, and I will cause [the people of] Judah to be like [SIM] rotten wood.

13 Hagi Efraemi'a agrama krima eri'nea zana kegeno, Juda'a namuma'a ke'ne. Hagi Efraemi'a rukrahe huno Asiria vuno agine kini ne' ome ke'neanagi, ana kini ne'mo'a kri'a azeri kanamaregara osuge, ra namuma re'neana eri osaparentegara osu'ne.

When [the leaders of] Israel and Judah saw that the people were suffering because of what [their enemies were doing to them] [MET], they sent [messages] to the great King of Assyria requesting [his help]. But he cannot help you; he cannot cause you to stop suffering, [because I am the one who is punishing Israel and Judah].

14 Na'ankure Nagra Efraemi vahetera laionigna nehu'na, Juda vahetera kasefa huno hanave laionigna hu'nena zagagafama aheno tagana vaziankna hu'na zamahe'na tagana vazigahue. Nagra zamahete'na haninkofi'na nevanugeno, mago vahe'mo'e huno zamazeri ovarigahie.

I will become like [SIM] a lion [DOU] to both nations; I will [attack them and] tear them to pieces. I will drag them away, and no one will [be able to] rescue them.

15 Hagi ana hute'na ete rukrahe hu'na nemanurega umani'nenuge'za, kefozama hu'naza zankura zamasunku nehu'za, zamagra tusiza hu'za Nagrikura hakregahaze. Hagi ana knazampima mani'neza nagrikura tusiza hu'za hakegahaze.

[After that], I will return to my place [in heaven] until they admit that they have sinned [MTY] and return to me; when they will experience [many] troubles, they will request me [to help them].”
