< Hosea 11 >

1 “Wakati Israeli alipokuwa mtoto, nilimpenda, nilimwita mwanangu kutoka Misri.
for youth Israel and to love: lover him and from Egypt to call: call to to/for son: child my
2 Lakini kadiri nilivyomwita Israeli, ndivyo walivyokwenda mbali nami. Walitoa dhabihu kwa Mabaali na kufukiza uvumba kwa vinyago.
to call: call to to/for them so to go: went from face: before their to/for Baal to sacrifice and to/for idol to offer: offer [emph?]
3 Mimi ndiye niliyemfundisha Efraimu kutembea, nikiwashika mikono; lakini hawakutambua kuwa ni mimi niliyewaponya.
and I to teach to/for Ephraim to take: take them upon arm his and not to know for to heal them
4 Niliwaongoza kwa kamba za huruma ya kibinadamu, kwa vifungo vya upendo; niliondoa nira shingoni mwao nami nikainama kuwalisha.
in/on/with cord man to draw them in/on/with cord love and to be to/for them like/as to exalt yoke upon jaw their and to stretch to(wards) him to eat
5 “Je, hawatarudi Misri, nayo Ashuru haitawatawala kwa sababu wamekataa kutubu?
not to return: return to(wards) land: country/planet Egypt and Assyria he/she/it king his for to refuse to/for to return: repent
6 Panga zitametameta katika miji yao, zitaharibu makomeo ya malango yao na kukomesha mipango yao.
and to twist: dance sword in/on/with city his and to end: destroy bluster his and to eat from counsel their
7 Watu wangu wamedhamiria kuniacha. Hata kama wakimwita Yeye Aliye Juu Sana, kwa vyovyote hatawainua.
and people my to hang to/for faithlessness my and to(wards) height to call: call to him unitedness not to exalt
8 “Efraimu, ninawezaje kukuacha? Ee Israeli, ninawezaje kukutoa? Nitawezaje kukutendea kama Adma? Nitawezaje kukufanya kama Seboimu? Moyo wangu umegeuka ndani yangu, huruma zangu zote zimeamshwa.
how? to give: give you Ephraim to deliver you Israel how? to give: make you like/as Admah to set: make you like/as Zeboiim to overturn upon me heart my unitedness to grow warm comfort my
9 Sitatimiza hasira yangu kali, wala sitageuka na kumharibu Efraimu. Kwa kuwa mimi ndimi Mungu, wala si mwanadamu, Aliye Mtakatifu miongoni mwenu. Sitakuja kwa ghadhabu.
not to make: do burning anger face: anger my not to return: again to/for to ruin Ephraim for God I and not man in/on/with entrails: among your holy and not to come (in): come in/on/with excitement
10 Watamfuata Bwana; atanguruma kama simba. Wakati angurumapo, watoto wake watakuja wakitetemeka kutoka magharibi.
after LORD to go: follow like/as lion to roar for he/she/it to roar and to tremble son: child from sea: west
11 Watakuja wakitetemeka kama ndege wakitoka Misri, kama hua wakitoka Ashuru. Nitawakalisha katika nyumba zao,” asema Bwana.
to tremble like/as bird from Egypt and like/as dove from land: country/planet Assyria and to dwell them upon house: home their utterance LORD
12 Efraimu amenizunguka kwa uongo, nyumba ya Israeli kwa udanganyifu. Naye Yuda ni mkaidi dhidi ya Mungu, hata kinyume cha yule mwaminifu Aliye Mtakatifu.
to turn: surround me in/on/with lie Ephraim and in/on/with deceit house: household Israel and Judah still to roam with God and with holy be faithful
