< Hosea 8 >

1 Hagi ufena tamagite anteta reho! Tumpa namamo nehiaza hu'za ha' vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofo nona eme avazagi kanegize. Na'ankure zamagra huhagerafi huvempa keni'a ruha'nentagi'za, kasegeni'a ha'rente'nazagu anara hugahaze.
[Yahweh said to me], “Blow [MTY] your trumpet [to warn the people]! My people have rejected the agreement that I made with them, and they have rebelled against [obeying] my laws. Therefore, [their enemies] are swooping down on my people’s country like [SIM] an eagle.
2 Israeli vahe'mo'za nagritega amanage hu'za zavi krafagea hu'naze. Anumzamoka tagri Anumza mani'nanketa tagra keta antahita kagrira hu'none hu'za hu'naze.
My Israeli people cry out to me, ‘Our God, we know that you are our God!’
3 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za knare avu'ava zana zamagena humi'nazankino, ha' vahe'amo'za zamahe'za zamarotago hugahaze.
But because the Israeli people have rejected what is good, their enemies will pursue them.
4 Hagi zamagra nagripintira hu izo kea e'orine'za, kini vahera zamazeri oti'naze. Nagra ke'na antahina osu'noge'za, kva vahera zamazeri oti'naze. Hagi silva zamireti'ene golireti'enena kaza osu havi anumzana tro hunte'nazanagi, ana zamo'a zamazeri haviza hugahie.
The Israel people appointed [their last three] kings, but they did not ask me if I agreed to [what they were doing]. They chose their own leaders without asking if I would approve of them. They used their own silver and gold to make for themselves idols, and doing that led them to be destroyed.
5 Hagi Sameri'a vahe'mota bulimakao anenta'amofo amema'ama golire'ma tro'ma hunte'naza zankura, nagra tusiza hu'na narimpa ahenezmantoe. E'i ana zantera tusiza huno narimpa neheanki, nazupa kefo avu'ava zana atreta knarera huta manigahaze?
You people of Samaria, throw away your [idol that resembles a] calf! I am extremely angry with you people! How long [RHQ] will you [do things that cause] you to be unacceptable to me?
6 Hagi mago Israeliti eri'za vahe'mo ana havi anumzana azanteti tro hunte'neankino, e'i anumzana omanine. E'ina hu'negu ana zantamina erita ru tamanatamanu hutreho.
[Someone in] Israel made that idol for you; [but I am] God and it is not. So that idol of a calf in Samaria must be smashed to pieces.
7 Hagi tamagra menina zaho nehankrazankita henka ra zahokrerfa hamaregahaze. Hagi witia hankre'nageno marerigahianagi, raga reontegahie. Hagi marerino ragama rente'niana, ha' vahe'mo'za musufa emerigahaze.
[The foolish thing that the people of Israel have done is like] [MET] trying to plant wind; but what they harvest will be like [MET] a whirlwind. So the grain that they planted will have no heads [on the stalks], and as a result [there will be no grain] from which to make flour. And if it did produce good grain, foreigners would [come and] steal it.
8 Hagi Israeli vahera zamasagahu nakarisige'za, haviza hu'nea kavo meaza hu'za kokankoka vahe amu'nompi mani fankanu haregahaze.
[The people of] Israel will be defeated [MET] [by their enemies]; they will be [scattered] among other nations and become worthless.
9 Na'ankure zamagra afi donki afumo agra'a avesi'zante vano hiaza hu'za Asiria mareriza vu'naze. Hagi Efraemi'a zagore monko avu'avara huno vano hu'ne.
Like [MET] donkeys that are looking for mates, they have requested [help] from Assyria; they paid money to [the leaders of Assyria] in order to [persuade those leaders to] protect them.
10 Hagi zamagra ru vahete zamavufaga zagore ome atre'nazanagi, Nagra zamazeri atru hu'na keaga huzmantegahue. Hanki hankave kini ne'mo knazana zamino zamazeri haviza hume nevanige'za, osi'a vahe manigahaze.
But although they have agreed to pay money each year to [the leaders of] those countries, I will soon gather them together [to punish them]. The great King [of Assyria] will cause them to suffer greatly.
11 Hagi Efraemi vahe'mo'za ofama hu ita rama'a tro hu'nazanagi, e'i ana itaramimo'a Nagri navurera kumima hu itarami efore nehie!
Although [the people of] Israel built many altars to present offerings [to their idols] to take away [their guilt for] sinning, those altars have become places where they commit [more] sins.
12 Hagi Nagra rama'a kasege krezami'noanagi, zamagra ana kasegea kazageno amanezankna hige'za, tagri'zana omane'ne nehu'za, ana kasegeni'a amagera onte'naze.
I wrote many laws for them, but they disregarded them, saying that [they did not have to obey them because] they were different from laws that they had known previously.
13 Hagi zamagra nagritega ofa eme kresramana nevu'za, ana afu'mofo ame'a ne'nazanagi, Ra Anumzamo'a ana ofagura musena nosue. Hagi menina kefo avu'avaza zamigura agesa nentahino, kumi'ma hu'naza zantera knazana zaminige'za, ete Isipi rukrahe hu'za vugahaze.
They offer sacrifices to me, and they eat [some of] the meat of those sacrifices, [which is what I permitted them to do]. But I, Yahweh, am not pleased with those sacrifices. I remember the evil things that they have done, and I will punish them for the sins that they have committed: I will force them to [go to other countries] [and become slaves like they were] [MET] in Egypt.
14 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za tro'ma huzmante'nea Anumzana zamage kaninente'za, kini vahe'mokizmi nonkumazmi kinte'naze. Hagi Juda vahe'mo'za rankumamofo have kegina eri hankaveti'za tro hu'naze. Hianagi Nagra teve atresugeno rankumazmia tefanane nehina, vihu kumazminena tevemo tefanane hugahie.
[The people of] Israel have abandoned/forgotten me, the one who created their [nation]; they have built palaces, and [the people of] Judah have built walls around many towns. But I will send a fire that will destroy all their cities and their fortresses.”
