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.
'An empty vine [is] Israel, Fruit he maketh like to himself, According to the abundance of his fruit, He hath multiplied for the altars, According to the goodness of his land, They have made goodly standing-pillars.
2 Garaan isaanii gowwoomsaadhaan guutameera; isaan amma yakka isaanii baadhachuu qabu. Waaqayyo iddoo aarsaa isaanii ni diiga; utubaawwan waaqeffannaa isaaniis ni barbadeessa.
Their heart hath been divided, now they are guilty, He doth break down their altars, He doth destroy their standing-pillars.
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 say: We have no king, Because we have not feared Jehovah, And the king — what doth he 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, To swear falsehood in making a covenant, And flourished as a poisonous herb hath judgment, on the furrows of a 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.
For the calves of Beth-Aven fear do inhabitants of Samaria, Surely mourned on account of it hath its people, And its priests on account of it leap about, Because of its honour, for it hath removed from it,
6 Jabbichis akka harka fuudhaatti Yaariim mootichaaf Asooritti geeffama. Efreem ni salphifama; Israaʼel waaqota ishee kanneen muka irraa tolfamaniif ni qaanofti.
Also it to Asshur is carried, a present to a warlike king, Shame doth Ephraim receive, And ashamed is Israel of its own counsel.
7 Samaariyaa fi mootiin ishee akkuma hoomacha bishaan irraatti fudhatamanii badu.
Cut off is Samaria! Its 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.
And destroyed have been high places of Aven, the sin of Israel. Thorn and bramble go up on their altars, And they have said to hills, Cover us, And to heights, Fall upon 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 thou hast sinned, O Israel, There they have stood, Not overtake them in Gibeah doth battle, Because of sons of perverseness.
10 Ani yoon fedhe isaan nan adaba; sababii cubbuu isaanii dachaa sanaatiif hidhaa keessa isaan buusuuf saboonni naannoo isaaniitti walitti qabamu.
When I desire, then I do bind them, And gathered against them have peoples, When they bind themselves 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.
And Ephraim [is] a trained heifer — loving to thresh, And I — I have passed over on the goodness of its neck, I cause [one] to ride Ephraim, Plough doth Judah, harrow for him doth Jacob.
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 for yourselves in righteousness, Reap according to loving-kindness, Till for yourselves tillage of knowledge, To seek Jehovah, Till he come and shew righteousness to 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, Perversity ye have reaped, Ye have eaten the fruit of lying, For thou hast trusted in thy way, In the abundance of thy might.
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 rise doth a tumult among thy people, And all thy fortresses are spoiled, As the spoiling of Shalman of Beth-Arbel, In a day of battle, Mother against sons dashed in pieces.
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.
Thus hath Beth-El done to you, Because of the evil of your wickedness, In the dawn cut off utterly is a king of Israel!
