Hosea 13
1 Sɛ Efraim kasa a, na nnipa ho popo; wɔma no so wɔ Israelman mu. Nanso Baalsom nti, onyaa afɔbu na owui.
ʻI he lea tetetete ʻa ʻIfalemi, naʻa ne hakeakiʻi ia ʻe ia ʻi ʻIsileli; ka ʻi heʻene talangataʻa ia Peali, ne mate ia.
2 Afei wɔkɔ so yɛ bɔne ara; wɔde wɔn dwetɛ yɛ ahoni ma wɔn ho, nsɛsode no nyinaa no. Adwumfo no nam nyansakwan so na ayeyɛ. Wɔka nnipa yi ho asɛm se, “Wɔde nnipa bɔ afɔre na wofew nantwimma ahoni ano.”
Pea ʻoku nau angahala ni ʻo lahi hake, pea kuo nau ngaohi ʻae ngaahi fakatātā ʻaki ʻa ʻenau siliva kuo haka, pea mo e ngaahi tamapua ʻo fakatatau mo ʻenau ʻilo, ko e ngāue kotoa pē ia ʻae kau tufunga: ʻoku nau pehē ki ai, ‘Tuku ʻae kau tangata ʻoku feilaulau ke ʻuma ki he fanga pulu siʻi.’
3 Ɛno nti, wɔbɛyɛ sɛ anɔpa omununkum sɛ anɔpa bosu a etu yera, sɛ ntɛtɛ a ehuw fi awiporowbea sɛ wusiw a ɛfa mfɛnsere mu kɔ.
Ko ia te nau hangē ko e ʻao ʻoe pongipongi, pea hangē ko e hahau ʻoe hengihengi ʻoku mole atu, hangē ko e kafukafu kuo tafi ʻe he ʻahiohio mei he hahaʻanga, pea hangē ko e ʻahu mei he ngotoʻumu.
4 “Nanso mene Awurade wo Nyankopɔn, a miyii wo fii Misraim. Nnye Onyankopɔn biara nto mu sɛ me, anaa Ogyefo biara sɛ me.
“Ka ko Sihova au, ko ho ʻOtua, mei he fonua ʻo ʻIsipite, pea ʻikai te ke ʻilo ha ʻotua kehe ka ko au pe: he ʻoku ʻikai mo ha fakamoʻui ka ko au pe.
5 Mehwɛɛ wo wɔ nweatam so, asase a so yɛ hyew yiye no so.
“Naʻaku ʻilo koe ʻi he toafa, ʻi he fonua ʻoe laʻāina lahi.
6 Memaa wɔn aduan no, wodi mee; wɔmee no, wɔyɛɛ ahantan; na wɔn werɛ fii me.
ʻO fakatatau ki heʻenau mohuku, naʻa nau mākona; naʻa nau mākona, pea naʻe hiki hake honau loto; ko ia kuo nau fakangaloʻi au.
7 Enti mɛtow ahyɛ wɔn so sɛ gyata, mɛtɛw wɔn wɔ akwan ho sɛ ɔsebɔ.
Ko ia te u hangē ko e laione kiate kinautolu: hangē ko e lēpati ʻi he hala te u lamasi ʻakinautolu:
8 Mɛtow ahyɛ wɔn so na matetew wɔn mu te sɛ sisi bi a wɔawia ne mma. Mɛwe wɔn te sɛ gyata; wuram aboa besunsuan wɔn mu.
Te u fakafetaulaki mo kinautolu hangē ko e pea, kuo fakamasiva ʻi he ʻave ʻene fānau, pea te u haeʻi ʻae kofu ʻo honau mafu, pea te u folo ʻakinautolu ʻi ai ʻo hangē ko e laione; ʻe haehae ʻakinautolu ʻe he fanga manu ʻoe vao.
9 “Wɔasɛe wo, Israel, efisɛ woasɔre atia me, me a meyɛ wo boafo.
“ʻE ʻIsileli, kuo ke fakaʻauha koe ʻe koe: ka ʻoku ʻiate au hoʻo tokoni.
10 Wo hene wɔ he na wabegye wo? Wo sodifo a wɔwɔ wo nkurow nyinaa so no wɔ he, wɔn a wokaa faa wɔn ho se, ‘Ma me ɔhene ne ahenemma’ no?
Te u hoko ko ho tuʻi: kofaʻā ia ha taha kehe te ne fakamoʻui koe ʻi ho ngaahi kolo kotoa pē? Pea mo hoʻo kau fakamaau ʻaia naʻa mou pehē ai, ‘Foaki mai ha tuʻi mo e houʻeiki?’
11 Enti mʼabufuw mu, memaa wo ɔhene, na mʼanibere mu no, miyii no hɔ.
Naʻaku foaki ha tuʻi kiate koe ʻi hoku houhau, pea naʻaku toʻo ia ʻi heʻeku tuputāmaki.
12 Efraim afɔdi no wɔaboaboa ano wɔakyerɛw ne bɔne agu hɔ.
Kuo tākai ʻae hia ʻa ʻIfalemi; kuo fufū ʻene angahala.
13 Ɔbɛte ɔyaw te sɛ ɔbea a ɔreko awo, na abofra no nnim nyansa nti; sɛ bere no du a, ɔmma awotwaa no ano.
Ko e ngaahi mamahi ʻae fefine ʻoku langā ʻe hoko kiate ia: ko e foha vale ia; ʻe ʻikai lelei ʻene nofo fuoloa ʻi he potu ʻoku hao ai ʻae fānau.
14 “Mɛpata agye wɔn afi ɔda tumi mu. Megye wɔn afi owu nsam. Owu, wo nwowɔe wɔ he? Asaman, wo sɛe wɔ he? “Merennya ayamhyehye biara, (Sheol h7585)
Te u huhuʻi ʻakinautolu mei he mālohi ʻoe faʻitoka; te u huhuʻi ʻakinautolu mei he mate! ʻE mate, te u hoko ko ho maumauʻi? ʻE faʻitoka, te u hoko ko ho fakaʻauha? “ʻE puli ʻae fakatomala mei hoku mata. (Sheol h7585)
15 mpo sɛ ɔyɛ yiye wɔ ne nuanom mu a. Apuei mframa a efi Awurade hɔ bɛba, ɛbɛbɔ afi nweatam so; osu rentɔ asusowbere na nʼabura bɛyow. Wɔbɛfom ne koradan mu nneɛma nea ɛsom bo no nyinaa.
Neongo ʻoku faʻa fua ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo hono kāinga, ʻe hoko ha matangi hahake, ʻe haʻu ʻae matangi ʻa Sihova mei he toafa, pea ʻe maha ʻa ʻene matavai, pea ʻe matuʻu ʻe ʻene vai mapunopuna; te ne maumau ʻae koloa ʻoe ngaahi ipu lelei kotoa pē.
16 Ɛsɛ sɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Samaria gye wɔn afɔdi to mu, efisɛ wɔayɛ dɔm atia wɔn Nyankopɔn. Wɔbɛtotɔ wɔ afoa ano; wɔbɛtotow wɔn mmofra ahwehwe fam, wɔn mmaa a wɔanyinsɛn nso wɔbɛpaapae wɔn mu.”
ʻE hoko ʻo lala ʻa Samēlia; he kuo ne angatuʻu ki hono ʻOtua: te nau tō ʻi he heletā: ʻe lailai ke iiki ʻa ʻenau fānau kei huhu, pea ko honau kau fefine ʻoku feitama ʻe haehae.”
