Hosea 9
1 Ko mirebeke ry Israele, ko miriñariña an-kobaiñe manahake ondatio; nisitak’ aman’Añahare’o irehe, nitea’o ty tamben-karapilo an-toe-panongàñe eo.
Israel, don't rejoice! Don't celebrate like other nations! For you have practiced prostitution; you have loved a prostitute's wages on every threshing floor of grain.
2 Tsy hahaeneñe iareo o toe- pamofoha’eo naho o fipiritan-divaio, vaho hifotetse ama’e ty divay vao.
Your threshing floors and winepresses will not feed you; the land will fail to produce your new wine.
3 Tsy ho tambatse an-tane’ Iehovà ao; fa hibalike mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo t’i Efraime, naho hilintseñe hàneñe tsy malio e Asore añe.
You will not stay in the Lord's land, instead Ephraim will return to Egypt, and will eat unclean food in Assyria.
4 Ie tsy mañilin-divay am’ Iehovà, naho tsy ho no’e ka o fisoroña’ iereoo, fa hoe mofom-pandala, fonga tiva ze mikama ama’e: a’ iareo avao izay, fe tsy mete mimoak’ amy anjomba’ Iehovày ao ty mahakama’ iareo ty amo arofo’ iareoo.
You won't pour out any drink offerings to the Lord. None of your sacrifices will please him. Your sacrifices will be like food eaten by a person in mourning—all who eat will be unclean. You will eat this food yourselves, but it will not enter the house of the Lord.
5 Ino ty hanoe’ areo amo sabadidam-pitontonañeo? naho amo andro namantaña’ Iehovào?
What are you going to do on the days of your appointed religious feasts, on the days of the festivals of the Lord?
6 Ingo te nisitaha’ iereo ty fandrotsahañe; fe hatonto’ i Mitsraime, haleve’ i Mofe ho lovae’ o hisatseo ze nisoa amo volafoti’ iareoo; fatike ty hitiry amo kivoho’ iareoo.
Look, they have left because of the destruction: Egypt with gather them, and Memphis will bury them. They gain a “valued possession” for their silver. Weeds will possess them, and thorns will grow over their tents.
7 Fa tondroke o androm-pitilihañeo fa pok’eo o androm-pamaleañeo; hapota’ Israele izay; dagola ty mpitoky, minè t’indaty entoen-troke, ty amy fitoabora’ o hakeo’oo, bey ty falaiñañe azo.
The time of punishment has come; the day of retribution has arrived. Let Israel know! You say the prophet is a fool, the man of the Spirit is mad, because your sin and hostility is so great.
8 Mpijilojilon’ Añahareko t’i Efraime fe fandri-bom-pitsindroke o sata’ i mpitokiy iabio, toe falaiñañe añ’anjomban’Añahare’e ao.
The watchman over Ephraim is with my God, and a prophet is a birdcatcher's snare on all his ways. Hatred is in the house of his God
9 Fa pok’ an-dalek’ ao iereo, naniva vatañe manahake tañ’andro’ i Gibà; toly ndra ho tiahi’e o hakeo’eo vaho ho tilihe’e o tahi’eo.
for they have corrupted themselves so deeply, as in the time of Gibeah. He will remember their sin; he will punish their wickedness.
10 Tendrek’ ahy hoe valòboke an-dratraratra añe t’Israele; nitreako o rae’eo hoe loham-boan-tsakoa amy fifotora’ey; fe nimoake e Baal-peore ie nitokañe ho amity raha mahameñatse, vaho naniva vatañe mira amo raha kokoa’ iareoo.
When I found Israel, it was like finding grapes in the desert. When I saw your forefathers it was like seeing early fruit on the fig tree. But when they came to Baal Peor, they gave themselves over to that shameful idol, becoming as filthy as the filthy thing they loved.
11 I Efraime: hitiliñe añe hoe voroñe ty enge’ iareo, ho po-pisamahañe, naho hakoahañe an-koviñe ao vaho tsy am-piareñañe.
Ephraim! Like a bird that flies away so shall your glory—no births, no pregnancies, no conceptions.
12 Ndra t’ie mañabey anake, hampandalàko, tsy hahatoly lahilahy raike; Eka! hankàñe am’iereo ka te isitahako.
Even if they bring up children, I will make sure they do not survive. What a disaster for you when I turn away from you!
13 I Efraime, manahake ty nahatreavako i Tsore, ie tinongy an-tane fanjàka; fe hakare’ i Efraime ho amy mpanjamañey o ana-dahi’eo.
Ephraim! Just as I saw Tyre planted in a meadow, so too Ephraim will lead out his children to the murderer.
14 Atoloro iareo, ry Iehovà ze satri’o hatolotse: toloro hòviñe mampiboloañe naho fatroa kapaike.
Give them—well, Lord, what should you give them? Give them wombs that miscarry and dry breasts.
15 E Gilgale iaby o hakeo’eo, tañe ty namotorako falaiñañe am’ iareo, ami’ty halò-tsere’ o sata’eo ty handroahako iareo amy anjombakoy, tsy hikokoako ka; fonga mpiola o roandria’eo.
All of their evil began at Gilgal, and that's where I began to hate them. I will drive them out of my house because of their wickedness. I will love them no longer; all their leaders are rebels.
16 Linafa t’i Efraime, maike o vaha’eo, tsy hamokatse voa ka iereo; aa ndra t’ie mahatoly, haitoako ty sabon-koviñe noro’ iareo.
Ephraim, you are blighted, dried up from the roots. You shall bear no fruit. Even if you have children, I will slaughter your beloved offspring.
17 Hahifin’Añahare añe iereo, ami’ty tsy fañaoña’ iareo Aze; vaho ho mpirererere amo kilakila’ondatio añe.
My God will reject you because you have not listened to him, and you will become homeless wanderers among the nations.
