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.
A luxuriant vine, is Israel, fruit, beseemeth him, —According to the abundance of his fruit, hath he brought abundance to the altars, according to the goodliness of his land, hath he 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.
Hypocritical is their heart, Now, shall they be held guilty, —He, will break down their altars, he will destroy their statutes.
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, will they say, We have no king, —for we revere not Yahweh, and what could, a king, 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 have spoken words, swearing falsely, in solemnizing a covenant, —therefore shall judgment, spring up like a poisonous plant, on the ridges of the field.
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.
About the calves of Beth-aven, will the inhabitant of Samaria be concerned, —for the people thereof, have mourned over it, and, the ascetics thereof, who, over it, used to exult, [shall mourn] for the glory thereof, because it hath departed therefrom.
6 Jabbichis akka harka fuudhaatti Yaariim mootichaaf Asooritti geeffama. Efreem ni salphifama; Israaʼel waaqota ishee kanneen muka irraa tolfamaniif ni qaanofti.
Itself also, to Assyria, shall be borne along, as a present to a hostile king, —shame, shall Ephraim receive, that Israel, may be ashamed, of his own counsel.
7 Samaariyaa fi mootiin ishee akkuma hoomacha bishaan irraatti fudhatamanii badu.
Silenced is Samaria: her king, is as a chip on 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.
So shall the high places of Aven, be destroyed, the sin of Israel, Thorn and prickle, shall come up on their altars, —Therefore shall they 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?
Beyond the days of Gibeah, hast thou sinned, O Israel: there, came they to a stand, the battle against the sons of perversity, touched them not in Gibeah.
10 Ani yoon fedhe isaan nan adaba; sababii cubbuu isaanii dachaa sanaatiif hidhaa keessa isaan buusuuf saboonni naannoo isaaniitti walitti qabamu.
When I please, then will I chastise them, —and there shall be gathered together against them—peoples, they being harnessed to 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.
But, Ephraim, shall be a heifer broken in, loving to tread out corn, when, I, have passed over upon her fair neck, —I will drive Ephraim, Judah, shall plow, Jacob, shall harrow to him.
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 ye at the bidding of lovingkindness, furrow to yourselves the newly-ploughed soil, —then will be the time to seek Yahweh, until he come, that he may rain down righteousness for you.
13 Isin garuu hammina facaafattanii jalʼina haammattan; isin ija sobaa nyaattaniirtu. Sababii ati jabina keetii fi loltoota kee baayʼee sana abdatteef,
Ye have plowed lawlessness, perversity, have ye reaped, ye have eaten the fruit of deception, —because thou didst trust in thy chariots, 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.
Therefore shall there arise a tumult among thy peoples, and, all thy fortresses, shall be plundered, as Shalman plundered Beth-arbel, in the day of battle, —the mother, upon her children, dashed to the ground.
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.
Even so, hath Bethel, done to you, because of your exceeding wickedness, —in the dawn, shall the king of Israel be, utterly silenced.
