Hosea 13
1 Wakati Efraimu alipozungumza, watu walitetemeka, alikuwa ametukuzwa katika Israeli. Lakini alikuwa na hatia ya kumwabudu Baali naye akafa.
like/as to speak: speak Ephraim trembling to lift: exalt he/she/it in/on/with Israel and be guilty in/on/with Baal and to die
2 Sasa wanatenda dhambi zaidi na zaidi; wanajitengenezea sanamu kutokana na fedha yao, vinyago vilivyotengenezwa kwa uhodari, vyote kazi ya fundi stadi. Inasemekana kuhusu hawa watu, “Hutoa dhabihu za binadamu na kubusu sanamu za ndama.”
and now to add to/for to sin and to make to/for them liquid from silver: money their like/as understanding their idol deed: work artificer all his to/for them they(masc.) to say to sacrifice man calf to kiss [emph?]
3 Kwa hiyo watakuwa kama ukungu wa asubuhi, kama umande wa alfajiri utowekao, kama makapi yapeperushwayo kutoka sakafu ya kupuria nafaka, kama moshi utorokao kupitia dirishani.
to/for so to be like/as cloud morning and like/as dew to rise to go: went like/as chaff to rage from threshing floor and like/as smoke from window
4 “Bali mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wenu, niliyewaleta ninyi toka Misri. Msimkubali Mungu mwingine ila mimi, hakuna Mwokozi isipokuwa mimi.
and I LORD God your from land: country/planet Egypt and God exception me not to know and to save nothing lest me
5 Niliwatunza huko jangwani, katika nchi yenye joto liunguzalo.
I to know you in/on/with wilderness in/on/with land: country/planet drought
6 Nilipowalisha, walishiba, waliposhiba, wakajivuna, kisha wakanisahau mimi.
like/as pasturing their and to satisfy to satisfy and to exalt heart their upon so to forget me
7 Kwa hiyo nitakuja juu yao kama simba, kama chui nitawavizia kando ya njia.
and to be to/for them like lion like/as leopard upon way: journey to see
8 Kama dubu aliyenyangʼanywa watoto wake, nitawashambulia na kurarua vifua vyenu. Kama simba nitawala; mnyama pori atawararua vipande vipande.
to meet them like/as bear childless and to tear enclosure heart their and to eat them there like/as lion living thing [the] land: wildlife to break up/open them
9 “Ee Israeli, umeangamizwa, kwa sababu wewe u kinyume nami, kinyume na msaidizi wako.
to ruin you Israel for in/on/with me in/on/with helper your
10 Yuko wapi mfalme wako, ili apate kukuokoa? Wako wapi watawala wako katika miji yako yote ambao ulisema kuwahusu, ‘Nipe mfalme na wakuu’?
where? king your then and to save you in/on/with all city your and to judge you which to say to give: give [emph?] to/for me king and ruler
11 Hivyo katika hasira yangu nilikupa mfalme na katika ghadhabu yangu nilimwondoa.
to give: give to/for you king in/on/with face: anger my and to take: take in/on/with fury my
12 Kosa la Efraimu limehifadhiwa, dhambi zake zimewekwa katika kumbukumbu.
to constrain iniquity: crime Ephraim to treasure sin his
13 Utungu kama wa mwanamke anayejifungua mtoto humjia, lakini yeye ni mtoto asiyekuwa na hekima; wakati utakapowadia hatatoka katika tumbo la mama yake.
pain to beget to come (in): come to/for him he/she/it son: child not wise for time not to stand: stand in/on/with birth son: child
14 “Nitawakomboa watu hawa kutoka nguvu za kaburi, nitawakomboa kutoka mautini. Yako wapi, ee mauti, mateso yako? Uko wapi, ee kuzimu, uharibifu wako? “Sitakuwa na huruma, (Sheol h7585)
from hand: power hell: Sheol to ransom them from death to redeem: redeem them where? pestilence your death where? destruction your hell: Sheol repentance to hide from eye my (Sheol h7585)
15 hata ingawa Efraimu atastawi miongoni mwa ndugu zake. Upepo wa mashariki kutoka kwa Bwana utakuja, ukivuma kutoka jangwani, chemchemi yake haitatoa maji na kisima chake kitakauka. Ghala lake litatekwa hazina zake zote.
for he/she/it son: descendant/people brother: male-sibling be fruitful to come (in): come east spirit: breath LORD from wilderness to ascend: rise and to wither fountain his and to dry spring his he/she/it to plunder treasure all article/utensil desire
16 Watu wa Samaria ni lazima wabebe hatia yao, kwa sababu wameasi dhidi ya Mungu wao. Wataanguka kwa upanga; watoto wao wadogo watatupwa kwa nguvu ardhini, wanawake wao walio na mimba watatumbuliwa.”
be guilty Samaria for to rebel in/on/with God her in/on/with sword to fall: kill infant their to dash in pieces and pregnant his to break up/open
