Hosea 5
1 Inao, ry mpisoroñeo, mitsendreña ry anjomba’ Israeleo, manokilaña ravembia ry anjomba’ i mpanjakay, fa ama’ areo i zakay; amy t’ie fandrik’ amy Mitspà naho harato nalafike ho amy Tabore;
Hear all of you this, O priests; and hearken, all of you house of Israel; and give all of you ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward you, because all of you have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.
2 vaho mpiola miheotse t’ie mandenta ndra te nendahako.
And the apostates are profound to make slaughter, though I have been a rebuker of them all.
3 Fàntako t’i Efraime naho tsy mietak’ amako t’Israele; fa manao hakarapiloan-drehe Efraime, vaho maleotse t’Israele.
I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, you commit whoredom, and Israel is defiled.
4 Tsy ho safirie’ iareo ty himpoly aman’Añahare’ iareo; fa añivo’ iareo ao ty fañahin-kakarapiloañe, vaho tsy fohi’ iereo t’Iehovà.
They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD.
5 Mitalily an-dahara’e ty fiebotsebora’ Israele; toly ndra hitsikapy an-kakèo t’Israele naho i Efraime; hiharo hihotrak’ am’ iereo ka t’Iehodà.
And the pride of Israel does testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity: Judah also shall fall with them.
6 Hendese’ iereo ty lia-rai’ iareo naho o mpirai-tro’ iareoo ho paia’ iereo t’Iehovà, fe tsy ho oniñe, fa nisitake.
They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find him; he has withdrawn himself from them.
7 Fa niola am’ Iehovà iereo, naho nahatoly anak’amontoñe; aa le habotse’ ty pea-bolañe reke-panañañe.
They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions.
8 Tiofo e Gibà i antsivay naho e Ramà i soliy; koiho e Bet’avene ty hankàñe: mitoliha ry Beniamine.
Blow all of you the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud at Bethaven, after you, O Benjamin.
9 Ho koaheñe t’i Efraime amy andro fandilovañey; fa nampahafohineko o fifokoa’ Israeleo ze toe hifetsake.
Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.
10 Manahake ty mpameve vorovoro o roandria’ Iehodào; hadoandoako am’ iereo hoe rano ty habosehako.
The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound: therefore I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.
11 Forekekèñe t’i Efraime demok’ an-jaka; ie nañorike haloloañe an-tsatri’e.
Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment.
12 Aa le ho bararaok’ amy Efraime iraho, naho haloloañe amy anjomba’ Iehodày.
Therefore will I be unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.
13 Ie nahaoniñe i arete’ey t’i Efraime, naho i fere’ey t’Iehodà, le nihitrike mb’ Asorey mb’eo, naho nisangitrife’e i mpanjaka Iaribey; f’ie tsy hahajangañ’ azo, vaho tsy ho melañe’e i fere’oy.
When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you, nor cure you of your wound.
14 Ho liona amy Efraime iraho, naho liona tora’e amy anjomba’ Iehodày; Izaho le Izaho avao ty handrimitse vaho hienga; hinday iraho le ia ty haharombake.
For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him.
15 Homb’eo iraho himpoly mb’añ’akibako añe, ampara’ t’ie miantoke o hakeo’eo, naho mipay ty tareheko; ie am-poheke ro hitsoek’ahy.
I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.
