होशे 8
1 “तुरही फुक्न तयार होओ! परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमाथि एउटा गरुड आउँदैछ, किनभने मानिसहरूले मेरो करार भङ्ग गरेका छन्, र मेरो व्यवस्थाको विरुद्ध बागी भएका छन् ।
Set the trumpet to your mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of the LORD, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law.
2 तिनीहरू मलाई पुकारा गर्छन्, ‘हे मेरा परमेश्वर, इस्राएलीमा हामी तपाईंलाई चिन्दछौं ।’
Israel shall cry to me, My God, we know you.
3 तर इस्राएलले जे असल छ त्यो इन्कार गरेको छ, र सत्रुले त्यसलाई खेद्नेछ ।
Israel has cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him.
4 मैले नचुनेका राजाहरूलाई, तिनीहरूले स्थापित गरेका छन् । तिनीहरूले मलाई नसोधी राजकुमारहरू नियुक्त गरेका छन् । आफ्ना चाँदी र सुनले, आफ्नै निम्ति तिनीहरूले मूर्तिहरू बनाएका छन्, तर तिनीहरूको विनाश हुनलाई नै यसो भयो ।”
They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.
5 “ए समारिया, तेरो बाछो तिरस्कृत भएको छ । यी मानिसहरूका विरूद्धमा मेरो क्रोध जल्दैछ । किनकि कहिलेसम्म तिनीहरू दोषी रहनेछन्?
Your calf, O Samaria, has cast you off; my anger is kindled against them: how long will it be before they attain to innocence?
6 किनकि यो मूर्ति इस्राएलबाट आएको हो । एउटा कारिगरले त्यो बनायो । त्यो परमेश्वर होइन! सामरियाको बाछोलाइ टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारिनेछ ।
For from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
7 किनकि मानिसहरूले बतास छर्छन्, र आँधिको कटनी गर्छन् । खडा बालीमा बालाहरू छैनन्, र त्यसले केही फसल दिंदैन । त्यसमा फसल लाग्यो भने, परदेशीहरूले त्यो सखाप पार्नेछन् ।
For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it has no stalk; the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.
8 इस्राएल निलिएको छ । अब जातिहरूमा बिचमा ती काम नलाग्ने वस्तुझैं रहन्छन् ।
Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.
9 किनकि वन-गधा एक्लै गएझैं, तिनीहरू अश्शूरसम्म गए । एफ्राइमले आफ्नै निम्ति प्रेमीहरू नियुक्त गरेको छ ।
For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim has hired lovers.
10 तिनीहरूले जातिहरूका बिचमा प्रेमीहरू नियुक्त गरे तापनि, अब तिनीहरूलाई म एकसाथ भेला गराउनेछु । राजकुमारहरूका राजाको दमनको कारणले, तिनीहरू दुःखी हुन लाग्नेछन् ।
Yes, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.
11 किनकि पापबलिहरूका निम्ति एफ्राइमले वेदीहरूको सङ्ख्या बढाएका छन्, तर झन् पाप गर्ने वेदीहरू ती भएका छन् ।
Because Ephraim has made many altars to sin, altars shall be to him to sin.
12 तिनीहरूका निम्ति मैले आफ्नो व्यवस्थालाई दस हजारपल्ट लेखे पनि, तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई कुनै नयाँ कुराजस्तो गरी हेर्छन् ।
I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing.
13 मेरा भेटीहरूका बलिदानको बारेमा, तिनीहरूले मासु चढाउँछन् र त्यो खान्छन्, तर म, परमप्रभुले त्यो ग्रहण गर्दिनँ । अब म तिनीहरूका अधर्मका बारेमा विचार गर्नेछु, र तिनीहरूका पापलाई दण्ड दिनेछु । तिनीहरू मिश्रदेशमा फर्कनेछन् ।
They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of my offerings, and eat it; but the LORD accepts them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
14 इस्राएलले आफ्ना सृष्टिकर्ता, मलाई बिर्सेको छ, र दरबारहरू बनाएका छ । यहूदाले धेरै सहरहरूलाई किल्लाबन्दी गरेको छ, तर त्यसका सहरहरूमा म आगो पठाउनेछु, र त्यसले उसका किल्लाहरू भष्म पार्नेछ ।
For Israel has forgotten his Maker, and builds temples; and Judah has multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire on his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
