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.
Do not rejoice, Israel, with joy like the other peoples. For you have been unfaithful, forsaking your God. You love to pay the wages a prostitute requires on all the threshing floors.
2 Tsy hahaeneñe iareo o toe- pamofoha’eo naho o fipiritan-divaio, vaho hifotetse ama’e ty divay vao.
But the threshing floor and the winepress will not feed them; the new wine will fail them.
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.
They will not continue to live in Yahweh's land; instead, Ephraim will return to Egypt, and one day they 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.
They will pour out no wine offerings to Yahweh, neither will they be pleasing to him. Their sacrifices will be to them like mourners' food: all who eat it will be defiled. For their food will be for themselves only; it will not come into the house of Yahweh.
5 Ino ty hanoe’ areo amo sabadidam-pitontonañeo? naho amo andro namantaña’ Iehovào?
What will you do on the day of an appointed festival, on the day of a festival for Yahweh?
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.
For, look, if they escape from destruction, Egypt will gather them, and Memphis will bury them. As for their treasures of silver— sharp briers will possess them, and thorns will fill 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 days for punishment are coming; the days for retribution are coming. Let all Israel know these things. The prophet is a fool, and the inspired man is insane, because of your great iniquity and great hostility.
8 Mpijilojilon’ Añahareko t’i Efraime fe fandri-bom-pitsindroke o sata’ i mpitokiy iabio, toe falaiñañe añ’anjomban’Añahare’e ao.
The prophet is the watchman for my God over Ephraim. But a bird snare is on all of his paths, and hostility toward him 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.
They have deeply corrupted themselves as in the days of Gibeah. God will call to mind their iniquity, and he will punish their sins.
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.
Yahweh says, “When I found Israel, it was like finding grapes in the wilderness. Like the very first fruit of the season on the fig tree, I found your fathers. But they went to Baal Peor, and they devoted themselves to that shameful idol. They became as detestable as the idol they loved.
11 I Efraime: hitiliñe añe hoe voroñe ty enge’ iareo, ho po-pisamahañe, naho hakoahañe an-koviñe ao vaho tsy am-piareñañe.
As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird. There will be no birth, no pregnancy, and no conception.
12 Ndra t’ie mañabey anake, hampandalàko, tsy hahatoly lahilahy raike; Eka! hankàñe am’iereo ka te isitahako.
Though they have brought up children, I will take them away so that none of them is left. Woe to them when I turn away from them!
13 I Efraime, manahake ty nahatreavako i Tsore, ie tinongy an-tane fanjàka; fe hakare’ i Efraime ho amy mpanjamañey o ana-dahi’eo.
I have seen Ephraim, just like Tyre, planted in a meadow, but Ephraim will bring out his children to someone who will slaughter them.”
14 Atoloro iareo, ry Iehovà ze satri’o hatolotse: toloro hòviñe mampiboloañe naho fatroa kapaike.
Give them, Yahweh—what will you give them? Give them a miscarrying womb and breasts that give no milk.
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.
“Because of all their wickedness in Gilgal, that is where I began to hate them. Because of their sinful deeds, I will drive them out of my house. I will love them no more; all their officials 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 is diseased, and their root is dried up; they bear no fruit. Even if they have children, I will put their beloved children to death.”
17 Hahifin’Añahare añe iereo, ami’ty tsy fañaoña’ iareo Aze; vaho ho mpirererere amo kilakila’ondatio añe.
My God will reject them because they have not obeyed him. They will become wanderers among the nations.
