UHoseya 5
1 Zwanini lokhu, bapristi, lilalele, ndlu kaIsrayeli, libeke indlebe, lani ndlu yenkosi. Ngoba isahlulelo singakini, ngoba selibe ngumjibila eMizipa, lembule elendlalwe phezu kweThabhori.
“Muntie, mo asɔfo! Monhyɛ eyi nso, mo Israelfo! Monyɛ asow, adehyefi! Saa atemmu yi tia mo: Moayɛ afiri wɔ Mispa, ne asau a wɔagu no Tabor so.
2 Labahlamuki batshonisa ukuhlaba, kodwa ngizakuba ngumlayi wabo bonke.
Atuatewfo adɔ mogyahwiegu mu asukɔ. Mɛtwe wɔn nyinaa aso.
3 Mina ngiyamazi uEfrayimi, loIsrayeli kafihlakalanga kimi; ngoba khathesi ufebile, wena Efrayimi, uIsrayeli uzingcolisile.
Minim Efraim ho nsɛm nyinaa; wɔmfaa Israel nhintaw me ɛ. Efraim, mprempren de wobɔ aguaman; na Israel aporɔw.
4 Kabaqondisi izenzo zabo ukuze baphendukele kuNkulunkulu wabo, ngoba umoya wokuwula uphakathi kwabo, leNkosi kabayazi.
“Wɔn nneyɛe mma wɔ kwan mma wɔnnkɔ Nyankopɔn nkyɛn. Aguamammɔ honhom wɔ wɔn koma mu; wonnye Awurade nto mu.
5 Lokuzigqaja kukaIsrayeli kuyafakaza ebusweni bakhe; ngakho uIsrayeli loEfrayimi bazakhubeka esiphambekweni sabo, loJuda uzakhubeka kanye labo.
Israel ahantan di tia no. Israelfo no, mpo Efraim hintihintiw wɔ wɔn amumɔyɛ mu; Yuda nso ne wɔn hintiw saa ara.
6 Bazahamba lezimvu zabo lenkomo zabo ukuyadinga iNkosi, kodwa kabayikuyithola; imonyukile kubo.
Sɛ wɔne wɔn nguan ne wɔn anantwi kɔhwehwɛ Awurade a Wɔrenhu no, efisɛ watwe ne ho afi wɔn ho.
7 Benze ngenkohliso ngakuyo iNkosi, ngoba bazele abantwana bezizweni. Khathesi inyanga ethwasayo izabaqeda lezabelo zabo.
Wɔanni Awurade nokware. Wɔwowoo aguaman mma. Sɛ wodi wɔn Ɔsram Foforo Afahyɛ a, ɔbɛsɛe wɔn nsase.
8 Vuthelani uphondo lwenqama eGibeya, uphondo eRama, lihlabe umkhosi eBeti-Aveni lithi: Emva kwakho, wena Bhenjamini.
“Hyɛn torobɛnto no wɔ Gibea. Hyɛn mmɛn no wɔ Rama. Momma ɔko nteɛmu so wɔ Bet Awen; Benyamin, monsɔre nni anim.
9 UEfrayimi uzakuba yincithakalo ngosuku lokujeziswa; phakathi kwezizwe zakoIsrayeli ngikwazisile okuliqiniso.
Efraim bɛda mpan wɔ akontaabu da. Israel mmusuakuw no mu no mepae mu ka nea ɛwɔ mu.
10 Iziphathamandla zakoJuda sezinjengalabo abatshedisa umngcele; ngizathululela phezu kwabo ulaka lwami njengamanzi.
Yuda sodifo no te sɛ wɔn a woyiyi ahye so abo. Mehwie mʼabufuw agu wɔn so te sɛ nsuyiri.
11 UEfrayimi ucindezelwe wachotshozwa ngesahlulelo, ngoba wavuma ukuhamba elandela umlayo.
Wɔhyɛ Efraim so, wotiatia ne so wɔ atemmu mu, wasi nʼadwene pi sɛ obedi ahoni akyi.
12 Ngakho ngizakuba njengenundu koEfrayimi, lanjengokubola endlini yakoJuda.
Mɛyɛ sɛ nwewee ama Efraim na mayɛ Yudafo sɛ dua a aporɔw.
13 Kwathi uEfrayimi ebona umkhuhlane wakhe, loJuda isilonda sakhe, uEfrayimi waya eAsiriya, wathumela ilizwi enkosini yeJarebhi; kodwa yona kayiyikuba lakho ukulelapha, kayiyikupholisa isilonda senu.
“Bere a Efraim huu ne yare, na Yuda nso huu nʼakuru no, Efraim de nʼani kyerɛɛ Asiria. Ɔsoma kɔɔ ɔhenkɛse no hɔ kɔpɛɛ mmoa. Nanso wantumi ansa no yare, na akuru no nso anwuwu.
14 Ngoba ngizakuba njengesilwane koEfrayimi, lanjengebhongo lesilwane endlini yakoJuda. Mina, uqobo lwami, ngizadabudabula, besengihamba, ngisuse, kungabi lomophuli.
Enti mɛyɛ sɛ gyata ama Efraim na mayɛ sɛ gyata hoɔdenfo ama Yuda. Mɛtetew wɔn mu nketenkete, na makɔ; Mɛsoa wɔn akɔ, na obiara rentumi nnye wɔn.
15 Ngizahamba ngibuyele endaweni yami, baze bavume icala labo, badinge ubuso bami; ekucindezelweni kwabo bazangidinga ngovivi.
Afei mɛsan akɔ me nkyi kosi sɛ wobenya ahonu. Na wɔbɛhwehwɛ mʼakyi kwan; wɔn awerɛhow mu, wɔbɛhwehwɛ me anibere so.”
