Hosea 5
1 “Sikieni hili, enyi makuhani! Kuweni wasikivu, enyi Waisraeli! Sikieni, ee nyumba ya mfalme! Hukumu hii ni dhidi yenu: Mmekuwa mtego huko Mispa, wavu uliotandwa juu ya Tabori.
Preestis, here ye this, and the hous of Israel, perseyue ye, and the hous of the kyng, herkne ye; for whi doom is to you, for ye ben maad a snare to lokyng afer, and as a net spred abrood on Thabor.
2 Waasi wamezidisha sana mauaji. Mimi nitawatiisha wote.
And ye bowiden doun sacrifices in to depthe; and Y am the lernere of alle hem.
3 Ninajua yote kuhusu Efraimu, Israeli hukufichika kwangu. Efraimu, sasa umegeukia ukahaba, Israeli amenajisika.
Y knowe Effraym, and Israel is not hid fro me; for now Effraym dide fornicacioun, Israel is defoulid.
4 “Matendo yao hayawaachii kurudi kwa Mungu wao. Roho ya ukahaba imo ndani ya mioyo yao, hawamkubali Bwana.
Thei schulen not yiue her thouytis, that thei turne ayen to her God; for the spirit of fornicacioun is in the myddis of hem, and thei knewen not the Lord.
5 Kiburi cha Israeli kinashuhudia dhidi yao; Waisraeli, hata Efraimu, wanajikwaa katika dhambi zao; pia Yuda atajikwaa pamoja nao.
And the boost of Israel schal answere in to the face therof, and Israel and Effraym schulen falle in her wickidnesse; also Judas schal falle with hem.
6 Wakati wanapokwenda na makundi yao ya kondoo na ngʼombe kumtafuta Bwana, hawatampata; yeye amejiondoa kutoka kwao.
In her flockis, and in her droues thei schulen go to seke the Lord, and thei schulen not fynde; he is takun awei fro hem.
7 Wao si waaminifu kwa Bwana; wamezaa watoto haramu. Sasa sikukuu zao za Mwandamo wa Mwezi zitawaangamiza wao pamoja na mashamba yao.
Thei trespassiden ayens the Lord, for thei gendriden alien sones; now the monethe schal deuoure hem with her partis.
8 “Pigeni tarumbeta huko Gibea, baragumu huko Rama. Paza kilio cha vita huko Beth-Aveni, ongoza, ee Benyamini.
Sowne ye with a clarioun in Gabaa, with a trumpe in Rama; yelle ye in Bethauen, after thi bak, Beniamyn.
9 Efraimu ataachwa ukiwa katika siku ya kuadhibiwa. Miongoni mwa makabila ya Israeli ninatangaza lile ambalo halina budi kutukia.
Effraym schal be in to desolacioun, in the dai of amendyng, and in the lynagis of Israel Y schewide feith.
10 Viongozi wa Yuda ni kama wale wanaosogeza mawe ya mpaka. Nitamwaga ghadhabu yangu juu yao kama mafuriko ya maji.
The princes of Juda ben maad as takynge terme; Y schal schede out on hem my wraththe as watir.
11 Efraimu ameonewa, amekanyagwa katika hukumu kwa kuwa amekusudia kufuatia sanamu.
Effraym suffrith fals chalenge, and is brokun bi doom; for he bigan to go after filthis.
12 Mimi ni kama nondo kwa Efraimu, na kama uozo kwa watu wa Yuda.
And Y am as a mouyte to Effraym, and as rot to the hous of Juda.
13 “Wakati Efraimu alipoona ugonjwa wake, naye Yuda vidonda vyake, ndipo Efraimu alipogeukia Ashuru, na kuomba msaada kwa mfalme mkuu. Lakini hawezi kukuponya, wala hawezi kukuponya vidonda vyako.
And Effraym siy his sikenesse, and Judas siy his boond. And Effraym yede to Assur, and sente to the kyng veniere. And he mai not saue you, nether he mai vnbynde the boond fro you.
14 Kwa maana nitakuwa kama simba kwa Efraimu, kama simba mkubwa kwa Yuda. Nitawararua vipande vipande na kuondoka; nitawachukua mbali, na hakuna wa kuwaokoa.
For Y am as a lionesse to Effraym, and as a whelp of a lioun to the hous of Juda.
15 Kisha nitarudi mahali pangu mpaka watakapokubali kosa lao. Nao watautafuta uso wangu; katika taabu yao watanitafuta kwa bidii.”
Y my silf schal take, and go, and take awei, and noon is that schal delyuere. I schal go, and turne ayen to my place, til ye failen, and seken my face.
