Hosea 10
1 Israel is a luxuriant vine that produces his fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars. As their land has prospered, they have adorned their sacred stones.
Isirayiri yali muzabbibu ogwagaagadde, ogwabala ebibala byagwo. Ebibala bye gye byeyongera obungi, naye gye yeeyongera okuzimba ebyoto; n’ensi ye gye yeeyongera okuba engagga, gye yeeyongera okulungiya empagi ze.
2 Their heart is divided. Now they will be found guilty. He will demolish their altars. He will destroy their sacred stones.
Omutima gwabwe mulimba, era ekiseera kituuse omusango gubasinge. Mukama alimenya ebyoto byabwe, era alizikiriza empagi zaabwe.
3 Surely now they will say, “We have no king; for we don’t fear Yahweh; and the king, what can he do for us?”
Olwo balyogera nti, “Tetulina kabaka kubanga tetwatya Mukama. Naye ne bwe twandibadde ne kabaka, yanditukoleddeyo ki?”
4 They make promises, swearing falsely in making covenants. Therefore judgment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of the field.
Basuubiza bingi, ne balayirira obwereere nga bakola endagaano; emisango kyegiva givaayo ng’omuddo ogw’obutwa mu nnimiro ennime.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria will be in terror for the calves of Beth Aven, for its people will mourn over it, along with its priests who rejoiced over it, for its glory, because it has departed from it.
Abatuuze b’e Samaliya bali mu ntiisa olw’ennyana ensaanuuse ey’e Besaveni. Abantu baayo baligikungubagira, ne bakabona baayo abaweereza bakatonda abalala, abaasanyukanga olw’ekitiibwa kyayo baligikungubagira, kubanga ekitiibwa kyayo kigivuddeko.
6 It also will be carried to Assyria for a present to a great king. Ephraim will receive shame, and Israel will be ashamed of his own counsel.
Erisutulibwa n’etwalibwa e Bwasuli n’eweebwa kabaka omukulu ng’ekirabo. Efulayimu aliswazibwa ne Isirayiri alikwatibwa ensonyi olw’ekiteeso kye.
7 Samaria and her king float away like a twig on the water.
Samaliya ne kabaka we balitwalibwa ng’ekibajjo eky’omuti ku mazzi n’azikirizibwa.
8 The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed. The thorn and the thistle will come up on their altars. They will tell the mountains, “Cover us!” and the hills, “Fall on us!”
Ebifo ebigulumivu eby’obutali butuukirivu birisaanyizibwawo, kye kibi kya Isirayiri. Amaggwa n’amatovu galimera ku byoto byabwe, ne gabibikka. Olwo ne bagamba ensozi nti, “Mutubuutikire,” n’obusozi nti, “Mutugweko.”
9 “Israel, you have sinned from the days of Gibeah. There they remained. The battle against the children of iniquity doesn’t overtake them in Gibeah.
Okuva mu nnaku za Gibea, wayonoona, ggwe Isirayiri era eyo gye wagugubira. Entalo tezakwatira abakozi b’ebibi mu Gibea?
10 When it is my desire, I will chastise them; and the nations will be gathered against them when they are bound to their two transgressions.
Bwe ndiba nga njagadde, ndibabonereza; amawanga galikuŋŋaana okulwana nabo, ne basibibwa mu masanga olw’ebibi byabwe eby’emirundi ebiri.
11 Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh, so I will put a yoke on her beautiful neck. I will set a rider on Ephraim. Judah will plow. Jacob will break his clods.
Efulayimu nnyana ntendeke eyagala okuwuula; kyendiva nteeka ekikoligo mu nsingo ye ennungi. Ndigoba Efulayimu ne Yuda ateekwa okulima ne Yakobo ateekwa okukabala.
12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness. Break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek Yahweh, until he comes and rains righteousness on you.
Musige ensigo ez’obutuukirivu, mukungule ebibala eby’okwagala okutaggwaawo; mukabale ettaka lyammwe eritali ddime, kubanga ekiseera kituuse okunoonya Mukama, okutuusa lw’alidda n’abafukako obutuukirivu.
13 You have plowed wickedness. You have reaped iniquity. You have eaten the fruit of lies, for you trusted in your way, in the multitude of your mighty men.
Naye mwasimba obutali butuukirivu ne mukungula ebibi, era mulidde ebibala eby’obulimba. Olw’okwesiga amaanyi go, n’abalwanyi bo abangi,
14 Therefore a battle roar will arise among your people, and all your fortresses will be destroyed, as Shalman destroyed Beth Arbel in the day of battle. The mother was dashed in pieces with her children.
olutalo kyeluliva lubawuumira mu matu, n’ebigo byammwe byonna ne bizikirizibwa, nga Sulemaani bwe yazikiriza Beswaluberi ku lunaku olw’olutalo, abakyala ba nnakazadde lwe baggundwa ku ttaka n’abaana baabwe.
15 So Bethel will do to you because of your great wickedness. At daybreak the king of Israel will be destroyed.
Bwe kityo bwe kiribeera, ggwe Besweri kubanga ekibi kyo kinene nnyo. Olunaku olwo bwe lulituuka, kabaka wa Isirayiri alizikiririzibwa ddala.
