1 Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ yìí, ẹ̀yin màlúù Baṣani lórí òkè Samaria, ẹ̀yin obìnrin tí ó ń ni tálákà lára, tí ó ń tẹ aláìní mọ́lẹ̀, tí ó wí fún ọkọ rẹ̀, “Gbé wá kí a sì mu!”

Listen to this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who tell their husbands, “Bring us drinks!”

2 Olúwa Olódùmarè ti fi ìwà mímọ́ rẹ̀ búra: “Àkókò náà yóò dé nítòótọ́ nígbà tí a ó fi ìwọ̀ mú un yín lọ, ẹni tí ó kẹ́yìn pẹ̀lú ìwọ̀ ẹja.

The Lord GOD has sworn by his holiness, “Behold, the days shall come on you that they will take you away with hooks, and the last of you with fish hooks.

3 Ẹni kọ̀ọ̀kan yín yóò jáde lọ gba àárín odi yíya a ó sì lé e yín sí Harmoni,” ni Olúwa wí.

You will go out at the breaks in the wall, everyone straight before her; and you will cast yourselves into Harmon,” says the LORD.

4 “Ẹ lọ sí Beteli láti dẹ́ṣẹ̀; ẹ lọ sí Gilgali kí ẹ sì dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí i. Ẹ mú ẹbọ sísun yín láràárọ̀ wá, ìdámẹ́wàá yín ní ọdọọdún mẹ́ta.

“Go to Bethel, and sin; to Gilgal, and sin more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three days,

offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened, and proclaim free will offerings and brag about them; for this pleases you, you children of Israel,” says the Lord GOD.

6 “Èmi fún un yín ní mímọ́ eyín ní gbogbo ìlú yín, àti àìní oúnjẹ ní gbogbo ibùgbé yín, síbẹ̀, ẹ̀yin kò yípadà sọ́dọ̀ mi,” ni Olúwa wí.

“I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and lack of bread in every town; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says the LORD.

7 “Àti pẹ̀lú mo mú òjò dúró nígbà tí ìkórè ku oṣù mẹ́ta. Mo rán òjò sí ibùgbé kan ṣùgbọ́n kò rọ̀ sí ìlú mìíràn. Oko kan ní òjò; àwọn mìíràn kò ní ó sì gbẹ.

“I also have withheld the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest; and I caused it to rain on one city, and caused it not to rain on another city. One field was rained on, and the field where it didn’t rain withered.

8 Àwọn ènìyàn ń rìn láti ìlú kan sí ìlú mìíràn fún omi wọn kò rí mu tẹ́ wọn lọ́rùn, síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi,” ni Olúwa wí.

So two or three cities staggered to one city to drink water, and were not satisfied; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says the LORD.

9 “Lọ́pọ̀ ìgbà ni mo kọlu ọgbà àti ọgbà àjàrà yín mo fi ìrẹ̀dànù àti ìmúwòdù lù wọ́n. Eṣú sì jẹ igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ àti igi olifi yín, síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò yípadà sí mi,” ni Olúwa wí.

“I struck you with blight and mildew many times in your gardens and your vineyards, and the swarming locusts have devoured your fig trees and your olive trees; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says the LORD.

10 “Mo rán àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn sí i yín bí mo ti ṣe sí Ejibiti. Mo fi idà pa àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin yín. Pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹṣin tí a kó ní ìgbèkùn. Mo kún imú yín fún òórùn ibùdó yín, síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò yípadà sí mi,” ni Olúwa wí.

“I sent plagues amongst you like I did Egypt. I have slain your young men with the sword, and have carried away your horses. I filled your nostrils with the stench of your camp, yet you haven’t returned to me,” says the LORD.

11 “Mo ti bì ṣubú nínú yín, bí Ọlọ́run ti bi Sodomu àti Gomorra ṣubú ẹ̀yin sì dàbí ògúnná tí a fa yọ kúrò nínú iná, síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò yípadà sí mi,” ni Olúwa wí.

“I have overthrown some of you, as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a burning stick plucked out of the fire; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says the LORD.

12 “Nítorí náà, èyí ni ohun tí èmi yóò ṣe sí i yín, Israẹli, àti nítorí tí èmi ó ṣe èyí sí i yín, ẹ múra láti pàdé Ọlọ́run yín, ẹ̀yin Israẹli.”

“Therefore I will do this to you, Israel; because I will do this to you, prepare to meet your God, Israel.

13 Ẹni tí ó dá àwọn òkè tí ó dá afẹ́fẹ́ tí ó sì fi èrò rẹ̀ hàn sí ènìyàn, ẹni tí ó yípadà sí òkùnkùn tí ó sì tẹ ibi gíga ayé. Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀.

For, behold, he who forms the mountains, creates the wind, declares to man what is his thought, who makes the morning darkness, and treads on the high places of the earth: The LORD, the God of Armies, is his name.”
