Hosea 8 (MSY2020)

1Egha Ikiavɨra Itir God kamaghɨn mɨgei: “Ia mɨdorozim damusɨ sɨgham givi. Apaniba atamra izɨ nan Dɨpenim mɨsoghasava ami, mati kuarazir isam asɨzim iniasa zuamɨra mɨghegha nguazimɨn izaghiri. Guizbangɨra, nan gumazamiziba Akar Dɨkɨrɨzir Gavgavir kɨ me ko amizim abɨki, egha nan akam batoke.Put the ram’s horn to your lips! An eagle looms over the house of the LORD, because the people have transgressed My covenant and rebelled against My law.

2Israelia nan dɨa ghaze, ‘Nɨ en God, e nɨ gɨfo!’Israel cries out to Me, “O our God, we know You!”

3Ezɨ puvatɨ, me arazir aghuim ataki. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, apaniba men agɨntɨgham.But Israel has rejected good; an enemy will pursue him.

4“Nan gumazamiziba gumazir dapaniba amɨsevima, kɨ men amamangarɨzir puvatɨ. Me uan silva ko golba isa uari bagha marvir guabar ingari. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, kɨ gumazamizir kabagh asɨghasigham.They set up kings, but not by Me. They make princes, but without My approval. With their silver and gold they make themselves idols, to their own destruction.

5O Samariaba, kɨ ian golɨn bulmakaun marvir guar kam bar an aghua. Kamaghɨn, kɨ bar ian anɨngaghe. Kɨ kamaghɨn ifonge, me uan arazir kurar kam zuamɨram anetakigh. Ezɨ ti puvatɨgham.He has rejected your calf, O Samaria. My anger burns against them. How long will they be incapable of innocence?

6Israelian ingangarir gumazir mam marvir guar kamɨn ingari. Bizir kam, a God puvatɨ, a pura nedazir kɨnim. Bar guizbangɨra, kɨ bulmakaun kam abɨghɨrarightɨ, a pura mɨnezir kɨnimɨn otogham.For this thing is from Israel—a craftsman made it, and it is not God. It will be broken to pieces, that calf of Samaria.

7Men arazir kuram, mati pura amɨnir muziarim, eghtɨ arazir kurar kamra, gumazamizibagh asɨghasɨgham, mati amɨnir ekiam iza gumazamizibagh asɨghasɨsi. Egha mati witɨn azenir dagheba mɨsevir puvatɨzim, ezɨ bretbar ingaramin witba puvatɨ. Eghtɨ witɨn kurar kam dagher bar muziariba mɨseveghtɨ, kantrin igharazimɨn gumazamizibara izɨ dar amam.For they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind. There is no standing grain; what sprouts fails to yield flour. Even if it should produce, the foreigners would swallow it up.

8Israelia ua derazir puvatɨ. Me kantrin igharazibar mɨraram oto. Datɨrɨghɨn me mati nguazir mɨnem bɨki, egh me ua nan ingangarim damuan kogham.Israel is swallowed up! Now they are among the nations like a worthless vessel.

9Me donkin atiabar mɨn puvɨra akaba batosi, egha uan ifongiabar gɨn zui. Egha uarir akurvaghasa Asiriaba bagha ghua men azangsɨsi. Egha me uarir akurvaghasa kantrin igharazibar atrivibagh iveza me apezeperi.For they have gone up to Assyria like a wild donkey on its own. Ephraim has hired lovers.

10Ezɨ datɨrɨghɨn kɨ bar me akuvagh pazɨ me damuam. Dughiar ovezimɨn, Asirian atrivim bar me abɨnigh, egh osɨmtɨzir ekiar bar kuram me darɨgham. Eghtɨ gɨn me avɨrasemeghan kogham.Though they hire allies among the nations, I will now round them up, and they will begin to diminish under the oppression of the king of princes.

11“Efraimia arazir kuraba gɨn amadir ofa damuasa, ofa gamir dakozir avɨribar ingari. Ezɨ ofan kaba derazir puvatɨ. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, me arazir kurar avɨrim gamuavɨra iti.Though Ephraim multiplied the altars for sin, they became his altars for sinning.

12Kɨ men sure damuasa uan arazir avɨriba osiri. Ezɨ me arazir kabar garima, da mati ikɨzir igharazibar arazir igharagha gariba. Egha me dar gɨn zuir puvatɨ.Though I wrote for them the great things of My law, they regarded them as something strange.

13Me ofan avɨribagh amua ofa gamir asɨzibar tuziba api. Ezɨ kɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God, kɨ ofan kabagh ifongezir puvatɨ. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, kɨ datɨrɨghɨn men arazir kurabagh inɨrɨgh, ivezir kuram isɨ me danɨngam. Kɨ me amadaghtɨ, me mangɨ ua Isipɨn kantrin otogh kalabuziabar mɨn ikiam.Though they offer sacrifices as gifts to Me, and though they eat the meat, the LORD does not accept them. Now He will remember their iniquity and punish their sins: They will return to Egypt.

14“Israelia ghaze, atriviba ti men akurvaghamin gavgaviba itima, me atrivibar dɨpenibar ingari. Bar guizbangɨra, kɨ God, kɨ gumazamizibar ingari. Ezɨ me bizir kam gɨn amada. Judaba uaghan osɨmtɨzir kamra iti, me dɨvazir gavgaviba itir nguibar ekiabar ingari. Egha ghaze, me deravɨra ikiam. Ezɨ puvatɨ, kɨ avim amadaghtɨ, a izɨ nguibar ekiar kaba ko atrivibar dɨpenibar isigham.”Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces; Judah has multiplied its fortified cities. But I will send fire upon their cities, and it will consume their citadels.
