UHoseya 9
1 Ungajabuli, wena Israyeli, kube yinjabulo, njengezizwe, ngoba uwulile usuka kuNkulunkulu wakho; uthanda umvuzo wobuwule emabaleni wonke okubhulela amabele.
Kei koa koe, e Iharaira, kei whakamanamana, kei pera me era atu iwi; kua whakarerea na hoki e koe tou Atua, kua puremu, arohaina ana e koe te utu i nga wahi katoa e patua ai te witi.
2 Ibala lokubhulela lesikhamelo sewayini kakuyikubondla, lewayini elitsha lizabakhohlisa.
E kore ratou e whangaia e te patunga witi, e te poka waina, a ka tinihanga tana waina hou.
3 Kabayikuhlala elizweni leNkosi, kodwa uEfrayimi uzabuyela eGibhithe, badle okungcolileyo eAsiriya.
E kore ratou e noho ki te whenua o Ihowa; engari ka hoki a Eparaima ki Ihipa; a ka kai ratou i te mea poke ki Ahiria.
4 Kabayikuthululela iwayini eNkosini, kabayikuyithokozisa; imihlatshelo yabo izakuba njengesinkwa sokulila kubo; bonke abasidlayo bazangcola; ngoba isinkwa sabo ngesomphefumulo wabo, kasiyikufika endlini yeNkosi.
E kore e ringihia e ratou he ringihanga waina ki a Ihowa, e kore ano aua mea e arongia e ia: ko a ratou patunga tapu ka pera ki a ratou me te taro tangi tupapaku; ka poke katoa te hunga e kai ana: ko ta ratou taro hoki hei mea mo to ratou hiakai; e kore e tae ki roto ki te whare o Ihowa.
5 Lizakwenzani ngosuku lomkhosi omisiweyo, langosuku lwedili leNkosi?
Ka pehea koutou i te ra o te huihui nui, a i te ra o ta Ihowa hakari?
6 Ngoba khangela, bahambile ngenxa yokuchitheka, iGibhithe izababutha, iMofi ibangcwabe, izindawo zabo eziloyisekayo zesiliva, ukhula oluhlabayo luzakudla ilifa lazo, ameva abe semathenteni abo.
Nana, kua riro ratou, kei ngaro, otiia ka kohikohia ratou e Ihipa, ka tanumia e Memepihi: ko a ratou mea ahuareka, hiriwa, ka riro i te ongaonga; ka tupu te tataramoa ki o ratou teneti.
7 Insuku zokuhanjelwa sezifikile, insuku zempindiselo sezifikile; uIsrayeli uzakwazi; umprofethi uyisithutha, umuntu womoya uyahlanya, ngenxa yobunengi bobubi benu, lenzondo enkulu.
Kua tae mai nga ra o te tirotiro, kua tae mai nga ra whakautu; ka mohio a Iharaira: he wairangi te poropiti, he haurangi te tangata i te wairua, he nui hoki no tou kino, he nui no te mauahara.
8 Umlindi wakoEfrayimi uloNkulunkulu wami, kodwa umprofethi uyisifu somthiyi wenyoni endleleni zakhe zonke, inzondo endlini kaNkulunkulu wakhe.
He kaitutei a Eparaima, i toku Atua ia; ko te poropiti, he mahanga ia na te kaiahere manu i ona ara katoa, he mauahara i roto i te whare o tona Atua.
9 Bazonakalisile ngokujulileyo njengensukwini zeGibeya. Uzakhumbula ububi babo, ajezise izono zabo.
Kua heke to ratou tupu, a aua noa iho ki raro, e rite ana ki nga ra i Kipea: ka mahara ia ki to ratou he, ka tirotirohia e ia o ratou hara.
10 Ngamthola uIsrayeli njengezithelo zevini enkangala, ngababona oyihlo njengezithelo zokuqala emkhiweni ekuqaleni kwazo. Kodwa bona baya eBhali-Peyori, bazehlukanisela lelohlazo, baba ngokunengekayo njengokuthanda kwabo.
I toku tutakinga ki a Iharaira, i rite ratou ki te karepe i te koraha; i toku kitenga i o koutou matua i rite ratou ki te matamua o te piki i te mea katahi nei ka hua; heoi haere ana ratou ki a Paarapeoro, na wehe ana ratou i a ratou ki taua han ga whakama, mea ana kia whakarihariha ratou kia rite ki ta ratou i matenui ai.
11 NgoEfrayimi, udumo lwabo luzaphapha luhambe njengenyoni, kusukela ekuzalweni, njalo kusukela esiswini, njalo kusukela ekumithweni.
Tena ko Eparaima, ka rere a manu atu to ratou kororia: kahore he mea e whanau, kahore he tamaiti i te kopu, a kahore he haputanga.
12 Loba bekhulisa abantwana babo, kube kanti ngizabenza bafelwe, kungasali muntu. Yebo-ke, maye kubo ekusukeni kwami kubo!
Ahakoa whakatupu noa ratou i a ratou tamariki, ka kore i ahau, a kore iho he tangata e mahue: ina, aue te mate mo ratou ua mahue ratou i ahau!
13 UEfrayimi, njengokubona kwami iTire, uhlanyelwe endaweni yokuhlala; kodwa uEfrayimi uzakhuphela abantwana bakhe kumbulali.
Ko Eparaima, rite tonu ki toku kitenga i Taira, he mea whakato ki te wahi pai: otiia ka kawea ana tama e Eparaima ki waho, ki te kaikohuru.
14 Banike, Nkosi! Uzanikani? Banike isizalo esiphunzayo, lamabele omileyo.
Hoatu ki a ratou, e Ihowa: ko te aha e hoatu e koe ki a ratou? hoatu ki a ratou he kopu whakatahe, he u maroke.
15 Bonke ububi babo buseGiligali, ngoba ngabazonda khona, ngenxa yobubi bezenzo zabo, ngizabaxotsha endlini yami, kangisayikubathanda; zonke iziphathamandla zabo zingabahlamuki.
Kei Kirikara to ratou kino katoa; a kino iho ahau ki a ratou ki reira: ka he nei a ratou mahi, ka peia ratou e ahau i roto i toku whare; heoi ano oku aroha ki a ratou: he hunga whakakeke o ratou rangatira katoa.
16 UEfrayimi utshayiwe; impande yabo yomile, kabayikuthela isithelo; yebo loba bezala, ngizabulala izithelo zesizalo sabo ezithandekayo.
Kua patua a Eparaima, kua maroke to ratou pakiaka, kore ake o ratou hua; ae ra, ahakoa whanau noa ratou, ka mate ano i ahau te mea e matenuitia ana, te hua o to ratou kopu.
17 UNkulunkulu wami uzabala, ngoba kabamlaleli; bazakuba ngabazulayo phakathi kwezizwe.
Ka paopao toku Atua ki a ratou, mo ratou kihai i rongo ki a ia: a ka waiho ratou hei kopikopiko i roto i nga tauiwi.
