1. 1EWEO Israel, migakpɔ dzidzɔ abe ame bubuwo ene o, elabena miegbe miaƒe Mawu la hesa vɔ na mawu bubuwo, eye mielɔ̃ gbolowo ƒe nunanawo le lugbɔƒe ɖe sia ɖe.BSBBSB: Do not rejoice, O Israel, with exultation like the nations, for you have played the harlot against your God; you have made love for hire on every threshing floor.
2. 2EWELugbɔƒewo kple wainfiaƒewo mana nuɖuɖu amewo o, eye woƒe aha yeye agblẽ.BSBBSB: The threshing floor and winepress will not feed them, and the new wine will fail them.
3. 3EWEMiaganɔ anyigba si nye Yehowa tɔ la dzi o, Efraim atrɔ ayi Egipte, eye woaɖu nu makɔmakɔwo le Asiria.BSBBSB: They will not remain in the land of the LORD; Ephraim will return to Egypt and eat unclean food in Assyria.
4. 4EWELe afi sia la, womaɖe mɔ be miatsɔ wain asa vɔe na Yehowa o, elabena vɔsa siwo katã woawɔ le afi ma la ƒe ɖeke madze eŋu o; vɔsa siawo ŋuti mekɔ o, ɖeko wole abe kuteƒenuɖuɖu ene, eye ame siwo katã ɖui la, woawo hã ŋuti mekɔ o. Woate ŋu aɖu nu siawo be woaɖi ƒo, gake menye be woatsɔe asa vɔe le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me o.BSBBSB: They will not pour out wine offerings to the LORD, and their sacrifices will not please Him, but will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat will be defiled. For their bread will be for themselves; it will not enter the house of the LORD.
5. 5EWEEkema nu ka miawɔ le ŋkeke kɔkɔewo kple Yehowa ƒe ŋkekenyuiwo dzi?BSBBSB: What will you do on the appointed day, on the day of the LORD’s feast?
6. 6EWEElabena ne wosi le gbegblẽ nu la, Egipte aƒo wo nu ƒu, eye Memfis aɖi wo. Woƒe klosalonu veviwo alé ɣebia, eye aŋɔka avu atsyɔ woƒe agbadɔwo dzi.BSBBSB: For even if they flee destruction, Egypt will gather them and Memphis will bury them. Their precious silver will be taken over by thistles, and thorns will overrun their tents.
7. 7EWEToheɣi na Israel ɖo vɔ; nu vɔ̃ ƒe akɔntanaɣi ɖo vɔ, eye kpuie la, Israel anya nu si wònye. Esi wò nu vɔ̃wo li kɔ gleglegle, eye fuléle yɔ mewò fũu ta la, nyagblɔɖila zu bometsila, eye ame si me Mawu ƒe gbɔgbɔ le la zu tsukunɔ.BSBBSB: The days of punishment have come; the days of retribution have arrived—let Israel know it. The prophet is called a fool, and the inspired man insane, because of the greatness of your iniquity and hostility.
8. 8EWEMeɖo nyagblɔɖilawo be woadzɔ Efraim ŋu, gake dukɔ la xe mɔ na wo le mɔ ɖe sia ɖe nu, woɖe woƒe fulélewo fia le dutoƒo, eye wowɔ esia hã le Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ me gɔ̃ hã.BSBBSB: The prophet is Ephraim’s watchman, along with my God, yet the snare of the fowler lies on all his paths. Hostility is in the house of his God!
9. 9EWENu tovo siwo wɔm nye dukɔ le la, le abe movinu siwo wowɔ le Gibea gbe aɖe gbe va yi ene. Mawu aɖo ŋku woƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo dzi, eye wòahe to na wo le woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.BSBBSB: They have deeply corrupted themselves as in the days of Gibeah; He will remember their guilt; He will punish their sins.
10. 10EWE“Esi medo go Israel la, enɔ nam abe waintsetse le gbegbe ene; esi medo go wo fofowo la, enɔ nam abe gbotsetse gbãtɔ le gboti dzi ene. Ke esi wova Baal Peor gbɔ la, wotsɔ wo ɖokuiwo na ŋukpenalegba la eye woɖi gbɔ̃ abe legba si ŋu woku ɖo la ene.BSBBSB: I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness. I saw your fathers as the firstfruits of the fig tree in its first season. But they went to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves to Shame; so they became as detestable as the thing they loved.
11. 11EWEEfraim ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe dzo, dzo abe xevi ene, eya ta womadzi vi o, womafɔ fu o, eye womado fu hã oBSBBSB: Ephraim’s glory will fly away like a bird, with no birth, no pregnancy, and no conception.
12. 12EWEeye ne viwòwo tsi la, maxɔ wo le asiwò, atsrɔ̃ wo. Baba na mi, ne metrɔ dzo le mia gbɔ. Anye blanuiléle ƒe ŋkeke.BSBBSB: Even if they raise their children, I will bereave them of each one. Yes, woe be to them when I turn away from them!
13. 13EWEMekpɔ Efraim, wodɔe ɖe teƒe dzeani aɖe abe Tiro ene, gake Efraim akplɔ viawo ade asi na amewula.”BSBBSB: I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a meadow. But Ephraim will bring out his children for slaughter.
14. 14EWEO Yehowa, nu ka nàtsɔ ana wò amewo? Nu siwo nàtsɔ na wo lae nye vidzidɔ si mate ŋu atsɔ fu o kple no siwo me notsi manɔ o.BSBBSB: Give them, O LORD—what will You give? Give them wombs that miscarry and breasts that dry up!
15. 15EWE“Woƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo wɔwɔ katã dze egɔme le Gilgal, eye afi mae nye hã megbe nu le wo gbɔ le. Manya wo le nye anyigba dzi le woƒe ahasiwɔwɔ ta. Nyemagalɔ̃ wo azɔ o, elabena woƒe amegãwo katã nye aglãdzelawo.BSBBSB: All their evil appears at Gilgal, for there I hated them. I will drive them from My house for the wickedness of their deeds. I will no longer love them; all their leaders are rebellious.
16. 16EWEEfraim, tsɔtsrɔ̃ tu wò. Israel, wò kewo katã yrɔ, màgatse ku azɔ o, eye ne èdzi vi hã la, mawu ɖevi si gbɔ womelɔ̃ nu le o.”BSBBSB: Ephraim is struck down; their root is withered; they cannot bear fruit. Even if they bear children, I will slay the darlings of their wombs.
17. 17EWENye Mawu agbe Israelviwo, elabena wogbe be yewomaɖo toe o. Woazu tsatsalawo, kple aƒemanɔsitɔwo le dukɔwo dome.BSBBSB: My God will reject them because they have not obeyed Him; and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
