Hooseʼaa 10
1 Israaʼel muka wayinii dagaage ture; inni matuma isaatiif ija naqata. Akkuma iji isaa baayʼateen inni iddoo aarsaa hedduu ijaarrate; akkuma lafti isaa gabbatteen utubaawwan waaqeffannaa isaa miidhagfate.
Israel is an unpruned vine, he bringeth forth fruit unto himself: according to the abundance of his fruit he hath multiplied altars; according to the goodness of his land they have made goodly statues.
2 Garaan isaanii gowwoomsaadhaan guutameera; isaan amma yakka isaanii baadhachuu qabu. Waaqayyo iddoo aarsaa isaanii ni diiga; utubaawwan waaqeffannaa isaaniis ni barbadeessa.
Their heart is divided; now shall they be found guilty: he will break down their altars, he will destroy their statues.
3 Ergasii isaan akkana jedhu; “Nu sababii Waaqayyoon sodaachuu didneef mootii hin qabnu. Garuu utuu mootii qabaanne iyyuu inni silaa maal nuuf godha?”
For now they will say, We have no king, for we feared not Jehovah; and a king, what can he do for us?
4 Isaan waan hedduu waadaa galu; kakuu sobaas seenanii walii galtee uummatu; kanaafuu seera dhabeeyyiin akkuma aramaa summii qabu kan lafa qotiisaa keessaatti latu.
They speak [mere] words, swearing falsely in making a covenant; therefore shall judgment spring up as hemlock in the furrows of the fields.
5 Namoonni Samaariyaa keessa jiraatan sababii waaqa tolfamaa fakkii jabbii kan Beet Aawwen keessaa sanaatiif sodaatu. Sabni ishee isheedhaaf booʼa. Luboonni ishee ejjitoonni warri ulfina isheetiin gammadan sunis sababii isheen isaan irraa boojiʼamteef ni booʼu.
The inhabitants of Samaria shall fear because of the calf of Beth-aven; for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the idolatrous priests thereof shall tremble for it, for its glory, because it is departed from it.
6 Jabbichis akka harka fuudhaatti Yaariim mootichaaf Asooritti geeffama. Efreem ni salphifama; Israaʼel waaqota ishee kanneen muka irraa tolfamaniif ni qaanofti.
Yea, it shall be carried unto Assyria [as] a present for king Jareb: Ephraim shall be seized with shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel.
7 Samaariyaa fi mootiin ishee akkuma hoomacha bishaan irraatti fudhatamanii badu.
As for Samaria her king is cut off as chips upon the face of the waters.
8 Iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen Awween ni barbadeeffamu; kunis cubbuu Israaʼel. Qoraattii fi sokorruun irratti biqilee iddoo aarsaa isaanii haguuga. Yeroo sana namoonni tulluuwwaniin, “Nurratti jigaa!” gaarraniin immoo, “Nu dhoksaa!” jedhu.
And the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up upon their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us! and to the hills, Fall on us!
9 “Yaa Israaʼel isin bara Gibeʼaatii jalqabdanii cubbuu hojjettaniirtu; ammas achumatti haftaniirtu. Gibeʼaa keessatti waraanni kaʼee jalʼoota hin fixuu?
From the days of Gibeah hast thou sinned, O Israel: there they stood: the battle in Gibeah against the children of iniquity did not overtake them.
10 Ani yoon fedhe isaan nan adaba; sababii cubbuu isaanii dachaa sanaatiif hidhaa keessa isaan buusuuf saboonni naannoo isaaniitti walitti qabamu.
At my pleasure will I chastise them; and the peoples shall be assembled against them, when they are bound for their two iniquities.
11 Efreem goromsa leenjifame kan midhaan siribsiisuu jaallatuu dha; kanaafuu ani morma ishee irra waanjoo nan kaaʼa. Ani Efreemin nan oofa; Yihuudaan lafa qotiisaa qotuu qaba; Yaaqoobis biyyoo bulleessuu qaba.
And Ephraim is a trained heifer, that loveth to tread out [the corn]; I have passed over upon her fair neck: I will make Ephraim to draw; Judah shall plough, Jacob shall break his clods.
12 Ofii keessaniif qajeelummaa facaafadhaatii ija jaalalaa kan hin dhumne haammadhaa; lafa keessan kan hin qotamin illee baqaqsaa; yeroon kun yeroo hamma inni dhufee qajeelummaa isinitti roobsutti Waaqayyoon barbaaddataniitii.
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek Jehovah, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.
13 Isin garuu hammina facaafattanii jalʼina haammattan; isin ija sobaa nyaattaniirtu. Sababii ati jabina keetii fi loltoota kee baayʼee sana abdatteef,
Ye have ploughed wickedness, reaped iniquity, eaten the fruit of lies; for thou didst confide in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men.
14 akkuma Shalmaan gaafa lolaatti Beet Arbeelin balleessee haadhota ijoollee isaanii wajjin biyyootti makaman sana, daʼannoowwan kee hundi ni barbadaaʼu; huursaan waraanaas saba keetti ni kaʼa.
And a tumult shall arise among thy peoples, and all thy fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Beth-arbel in the day of battle: the mother was dashed in pieces with the children.
15 Yaa Beetʼeel, sababii hamminni kee akka malee guddaa taʼeef, wanni akkasii sittis ni dhufti. Gaafa guyyaan sun bariʼutti mootiin Israaʼel guutumaan guutuutti ni barbadeeffama.
So shall Bethel do unto you because of the wickedness of your wickedness: at day-break shall the king of Israel utterly be cut off.
