Hosea 8 - Listen Online

¹ FI ipè si ẹnu rẹ. Yio wá bi idì si ile Oluwa, nitori nwọn ti re majẹmu mi kọja, nwọn si ti rú ofin mi.

¹ Set the trumpet to thy mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of the LORD, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law.

² Nwọn o kigbe si mi pe, Ọlọrun mi, awa Israeli mọ̀ ọ.

² Israel shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee.

³ Israeli ti gbe ohunrere sọnù; ọta yio lepa rẹ̀.

³ Israel hath cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him.

⁴ Nwọn ti fi ọba jẹ, ṣugbọn kì iṣe nipasẹ̀ mi: nwọn ti jẹ olori, ṣugbọn emi kò si mọ̀: fàdakà wọn ati wurà wọn ni nwọn fi ṣe òriṣa fun ara wọn, ki a ba le ké wọn kuro.

⁴ They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.

⁵ Ọmọ-malu rẹ ti ta ọ nù, Samaria; ibinu mi rú si wọn: yio ti pẹ to ki nwọn to de ipò ailẹ̀ṣẹ?

⁵ Thy calf, O Samaria, hath cast thee off; mine anger is kindled against them: how long will it be ere they attain to innocency?

⁶ Nitori lati ọdọ Israeli wá li o ti ri bẹ̃ pẹlu; oniṣọ̀na li o ṣe e; nitorina on kì iṣe Ọlọrun: ṣugbọn ọmọ malu Samaria yio fọ tũtũ.

⁶ For from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.

⁷ Nitori nwọn ti gbìn ẹfũfũ, nwọn o si ka ãjà: kò ni igi ọka: irúdi kì yio si mu onjẹ wá: bi o ba ṣepe o mu wá, alejò yio gbe e mì.

⁷ For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it hath no stalk: the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.

⁸ A gbe Israeli mì: nisisiyi ni nwọn o wà lãrin awọn Keferi bi ohun-elò ninu eyiti inu-didùn kò si.

⁸ Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.

⁹ Nitori nwọn goke lọ si Assiria, kẹtẹ́kẹtẹ́ igbẹ́ nikan fun ara rẹ̀: Efraimu ti bẹ̀ awọn ọrẹ li ọ̀wẹ.

⁹ For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath hired lovers.

¹⁰ Nitõtọ, bi nwọn tilẹ ti bẹ̀ ọ̀wẹ lãrin awọn orilẹ-ède, nisisiyi li emi o ko wọn jọ, nwọn o si kãnu diẹ fun ẹrù ọba awọn ọmọ-alade.

¹⁰ Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.

¹¹ Nitori Efraimu ti tẹ́ pẹpẹ pupọ̀ lati dẹ̀ṣẹ, pẹpẹ yio jẹ ohun atidẹ̀ṣẹ fun u.

¹¹ Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin.

¹² Mo ti kọwe ohun pupọ̀ ti ofin mi si i, ṣugbọn a kà wọn si bi ohun ajèji.

¹² I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing.

¹³ Nwọn rubọ ẹran ninu ẹbọ ẹran mi, nwọn si jẹ ẹ; Oluwa kò tẹwọgbà wọn; nisisiyi ni yio ránti ìwa-buburu wọn, yio si bẹ̀ ẹ̀ṣẹ wọn wò: nwọn o padà lọ si Egipti.

¹³ They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat it; but the LORD accepteth them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.

¹⁴ Nitori Israeli ti gbagbe Ẹlẹda rẹ̀, o si kọ́ tempili pupọ; Juda si ti sọ ilu olodi di pupọ̀: ṣugbọn emi o rán iná kan si ori awọn ilu rẹ̀, yio si jẹ awọn ãfin rẹ̀ wọnni run.

¹⁴ For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
