< Hosea 5 >

1 “Fanongo eni, ʻae kau taulaʻeiki; pea fakafanongo, ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli; pea tokanga mai ho telinga, ʻe fale ʻoe tuʻi; he ʻoku fai kiate kimoutolu ʻae fakamaau, koeʻuhi ko e tauhele ʻakimoutolu ki Misipa, pea ko e kupenga naʻe fola ʻi Tepea.
Hear this O priests and pay attention - O house of Israel and O house of the king give ear for [belongs] to you the judgment for a trap you have been to Mizpah and a net spread out over Tabor.
2 Pea ko e kau angatuʻu ʻoku loto ke fai ʻae fakapō, neongo ko au naʻaku valokiʻi ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.
And slaughtering rebels they have made deep and I [am] discipline to all of them.
3 ‌ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻa ʻIfalemi, pea ʻoku ʻikai puli ʻa ʻIsileli meiate au: he ko eni, ʻe ʻIfalemi, ʻoku ke fai feʻauaki, pea kuo ʻuliʻi ʻa ʻIsileli.
I I know Ephraim and Israel not it is hidden from me for now you have prostituted yourself O Ephraim it has made itself unclean Israel.
4 ‌ʻE ʻikai te nau ngaohi ʻenau anga ke liliu ki honau ʻOtua: he ko e laumālie ʻoe feʻauaki ʻoku ʻi loto ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻa Sihova.
Not they permit deeds their to return to God their for a spirit of prostitution [is] in inner being their and Yahweh not they know.
5 Pea ko e fielahi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe fakatōhifo ai hono mata: ko ia ʻe tō ki lalo ʻa ʻIsileli, mo ʻIfalemi ʻi heʻenau angahala; ʻe tō foki ʻa Siuta mo kinautolu.
And it testifies [the] pride of Israel in face its and Israel and Ephraim they will stumble on iniquity their it will stumble also Judah with them.
6 Te nau ʻalu mo ʻenau fanga sipi mo ʻenau fanga manu ke kumi ʻa Sihova; ka ʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ia; kuo ne mahuʻi meiate kinautolu.
With flock[s] their and with herd[s] their they will go to seek Yahweh and not they will find [him] he has withdrawn from them.
7 Kuo nau fai kākā kia Sihova: he kuo nau fakatupu ʻae fānau kehe: ko eni, ko e māhina pe taha, pea ʻe folo ʻakinautolu mo honau ngaahi tofiʻa.
With Yahweh they have dealt treacherously for children strange they have borne now it will devour them a new moon with portions their.
8 “Ifi ʻae meʻa ifi ʻi Kipea, pea mo e meʻalea ʻi Lama: kalanga lahi ki Peteaveni, sio ki mui koe, ʻe Penisimani.
Blow a horn in Gibeah a trumpet in Ramah sound an alarm Beth Aven after you O Benjamin.
9 ‌ʻE lala ʻa ʻIfalemi ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe valoki ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli, kuo u fakahā ʻaia ʻe hoko moʻoni.
Ephraim a waste it will become on [the] day of rebuke among [the] tribes of Israel I make known [something] trustworthy.
10 Ko e houʻeiki ʻo Siuta naʻe hangē ko kinautolu ʻoku hiki ʻae fakaʻilonga: ko ia te u lilingi hoku houhau kiate kinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e vai.
They have become [the] leaders of Judah like [those who] displace a boundary on them I will pour out like water wrath my.
11 “Kuo fakamālohi mo fesiʻi ʻa ʻIfalemi ʻi he fakamaau, koeʻuhi naʻa ne loto ke muimui ki he vaʻinga.
[is] oppressed Ephraim [is] crushed of judgment for he was determined he walked after a command.
12 Ko ia te u hangē ko e ane kia ʻIfalemi, pea hangē ko e popo ki he fale ʻo Siuta.
And I [am] like moth to Ephraim and like rottenness to [the] house of Judah.
13 “ʻI he mamata ʻe ʻIfalemi ki hono mahaki, pea mo Siuta ki hono lavea, naʻa ne toki ʻalu ʻa ʻIfalemi ki he ʻAsilia, pea ne fekau ki he tuʻi ko Salepi: ka naʻe ʻikai te ne faʻa fakamoʻui koe, ke moʻui ai ho lavea.
And he saw Ephraim sickness his and Judah wound his and he went Ephraim to Assyria and he sent to king Jareb and he not he is able to heal you and not it will depart from you [the] wound.
14 He te u hangē ko e laione ki ʻIfalemi, pea hangē ko e laione mui ki he fale ʻo Siuta: Ko au, ʻio, ko au, te u haeʻi, pea toe ʻalu; te u ʻave pea ʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha te ne fakahaofi.
For I [will be] like lion to Ephraim and like young lion to [the] house of Judah I I I will tear to pieces and I may go I will carry off and there not [will be] a deliverer.
15 “Te u tafoki ʻo ʻalu ki hoku potu, kaeʻoua ke nau vete ʻenau hia, pea kumi ki hoku fofonga: ʻi heʻenau ngaahi mamahi, te nau kumi fakavave kiate au.”
I will go I will return to place my until that they will be held guilty and they will seek face my when it is distress to them they will seek earnestly me.
