< Hosea 9 >
1 Nni ahurisie, Ao Israel; nsɛpɛ wo ho te sɛ aman a aka no. Ɛfiri sɛ woanni wo Onyankopɔn nokorɛ, wʼani gye adwamammɔ ho wɔ ayuporobea nyinaa so.
Israel, nyle thou be glad, nyle thou make ful out ioie as puplis; for thou hast do fornicacioun fro thi God. Thou louedist meede on alle the cornflooris of wheete.
2 Ayuporobea ne nsakyimena rentumi mma nnipa no aduane; nsã foforɔ nso bɛbɔ wɔn.
The cornfloor and pressour schal not feede hem, and wyn schal lie to hem.
3 Wɔrentena Awurade asase no so bio; Efraim bɛsane akɔ Misraim na wadi aduane a ɛho nteɛ wɔ Asiria.
Thei schulen not dwelle in the lond of the Lord. Effraym turnede ayen in to Egipt, and eet defoulid thing among Assiriens.
4 Wɔremmɔ ahwiesa afɔdeɛ mma Awurade, na wɔn afɔrebɔ nso nsɔ nʼani. Saa afɔrebɔ yi bɛyɛ sɛ aduane a ayiasefoɔ de wɔn nsa aka; wɔn a wɔdi nyinaa ho bɛgu fi. Saa aduane no bɛyɛ wɔn ankasa dea na wɔrentumi mmfa nkɔ Awurade asɔredan mu.
Thei schulen not offre wyn to the Lord, and thei schulen not plese hym. The sacrificis of hem ben as breed of mourneris; alle that schulen ete it schulen be defoulid. For the breed of hem is to the lijf of hem; thei schulen not entre in to the hous of the Lord.
5 Ɛdeɛn na mobɛyɛ wɔ mo apontoɔ da no ne Awurade afahyɛ nna no nso?
What schulen ye do in the solempne dai, in the dai of the feeste of the Lord?
6 Mpo sɛ wɔdwane firi ɔsɛeɛ mu a Misraim bɛboaboa wɔn ano, na Memfis bɛsie wɔn. Wɔn dwetɛ ahonyadeɛ bɛfu wira, na wɔn ntomadan adane nkasɛɛ.
For lo! thei ben goon out fro distriyng. Egipt schal gadere hem togidere, Memphis schal birie hem. A nettle schal enherite the desirable siluer of hem, a clote schal be in the tabernaclis of hem.
7 Asotwe nna no reba, akontabuo nna no aduru; ma Israel nhunu yei. Esiane mo bɔne bebrebe ne mo akokoakoko a adɔɔso enti mofa no sɛ odiyifoɔ yɛ kwasea na deɛ honhom akanyane noɔ no yɛ ɔbɔdamfoɔ.
Daies of visitacioun ben comun, daies of yeldyng ben comun. Knowe ye, that Israel is a fool, a wood profete, a spiritual man, for the multitude of thi wickidnesse is also the multitude of woodnesse.
8 Odiyifoɔ no ne me Onyankopɔn yɛ Efraim so wɛmfoɔ, nanso wɔasum no afidie wɔ nʼakwan nyinaa so, na ɔtane ahyɛ ne Onyankopɔn fie ma.
The biholdere of Effraym with my God is a profete; a snare of fallyng is maad now on alle the weies of hym, woodnesse is in the hous of his God.
9 Wɔaduru porɔeɛ bunu mu, sɛdeɛ na ɛteɛ wɔ Gibea nna no mu. Onyankopɔn bɛkae wɔn atirimuɔden na watwe wɔn aso wɔ wɔn bɔne ho.
Thei synneden deepli, as in the daies of Gabaa. The Lord schal haue mynde on the wickidnesse of hem, and schal visite the synnes of hem.
10 “Ɛberɛ a mehunuu Israel no, na ɛte sɛ deɛ mahunu bobe wɔ anweatam so; ɛberɛ a mehunuu mo agyanom no, na ɛte sɛ deɛ mahunu borɔdɔma aba a ɛdi ɛkan wɔ ne dua so. Nanso ɛberɛ a wɔbaa Baal-peor nkyɛn no wɔdwiraa wɔn ho maa ohoni nimguaseni no. Wɔn ho yɛɛ abofono te sɛ ohoni a wɔdɔ no no.
Y foond Israel as grapis in desert, Y siy the fadris of hem as the firste applis of a fige tree, in the cop therof; but thei entriden to Belfegor, and weren alienyd in confusioun, and thei weren maad abhomynable as tho thingis whiche thei louyden.
11 Efraim animuonyam bɛtu akɔ sɛ anomaa, nyinsɛn ne awoɔ nni ne mu.
Effraym as a brid fley awei; the glorye of hem is of childberyng, and of the wombe, and of conseyuyng.
12 Mpo sɛ wɔtete mmɔfra a, mɛma mmɔfra no awuwu wɔ wɔn nsa mu. Wɔnnue, sɛ meyi mʼani firi wɔn so a!
That if thei nurschen her sones, Y schal make hem with out children among men. But also wo to hem, whanne Y schal go awei fro hem.
13 Mahunu Efraim te sɛ Tiro, a ɛda baabi a ɛyɛ. Nanso Efraim de ne mma bɛbrɛ okumfoɔ no.”
Y siy that Effraym was as Tire, foundid in fairnesse; and Effraym schal lede out hise sones to the sleere.
14 Fa ma wɔn, Ao, Awurade, ɛdeɛn na wode bɛma wɔn? Ma wɔn yafunu a ɛpɔn ne nufoɔ a nufosuo nni muo.
Lord, yyue thou to hem; what schalt thou yyue to hem? yyue thou to hem a wombe with out children, and drie tetis.
15 “Wɔn atirimuɔdensɛm nyinaa a wɔdii wɔ Gilgal enti, mefaa wɔn ho tan wɔ hɔ. Wɔn nnebɔne enti mɛpam wɔn afiri me fie. Merennɔ wɔn bio; ɛfiri sɛ wɔn ntuanofoɔ nyinaa yɛ atuatefoɔ.
Alle the wickidnessis of hem ben in Galgal, for there Y hadde hem hateful; for the malice of her fyndyngis. Y schal caste hem out of myn hous; Y schal not leie to, that Y loue hem. Alle the princes of hem goen awei.
16 Efraim agyigya, ne nhini akusa, enti wɔnso aba. Sɛ wɔwo mma mpo a, mɛkunkum wɔn mma a wɔdɔ wɔn no.”
Effraym is smyten, the roote of hem is dried vp; thei schulen not make fruyt. That thouy thei gendren, Y schal sle the moost louyd thingis of her wombe.
17 Me Onyankopɔn bɛpo wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔannyɛ ɔsetie amma no; Wɔbɛkyinkyini aman no mu.
My God schal caste hem awey, for thei herden not hym; and thei schulen be of vnstable dwellyng among naciouns.
