< Hosea 5 >

1 E HOOLOHE oukou i keia, o na kahuna, E haliu mai oukou, e ko ka hale o ka Iseraela, A e lohe na pepeiao, e ko ka hale o ke alii; No ka mea, no oukou ka hoohewa. No ka mea, ua lilo oukou i pahele ma Mizepa, A i upena hohola hoi maluna o Tabora.
Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward you, because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.
2 Ke pepehi nui nei ka poe haalele hewa, A e hahau au ia lakou a pau.
And the revolters are gone deeply into slaughter, though I have been a rebuker of them all.
3 Ua ike au ia Eperaima, Aole hoi i hunaia ka Iseraela mai o'u aku la: No ka mea, ano, e Eperaima, ua moe kolohe no oe, A ua haumia o ka Iseraela.
I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, thou committest harlotry, and Israel is defiled.
4 Aole lakou i hoolilo i ko lakou manao e huli hou i ko lakou Akua: No ka mea, he naau moe kolohe iwaena o lakou, Aole lakou i ike ia Iehova.
They will not frame their doings to turn to their God: for the spirit of harlotry is in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD.
5 Ke hoike mai nei ka haakei o ka Iseraela ma kona maka: Nolaila o ka Iseraela a me Eperaima, e haule pu iloko o ko lakou hewa; A o Iuda hoi kekahi e haule pu me lakou.
And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall with them.
6 A e hele lakou me ka lakou poe hipa, a me ka lakou poe bipi e imi ia Iehova, Aka, aole e loaa ia lakou; Ua hele ia mai o lakou aku.
They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find him; he hath withdrawn himself from them.
7 Ua hana hoopunipuni aku la lakou ia Iehova: No ka mea, ua hoohanau lakou i na keiki e: Ano e hoopauia auanei lakou i ka malama hookahi, a me ko lakou waiwai.
They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions.
8 E puhi oukou i ka pukani ma Gibea, I ka pu hoi ma Rama: E kahea nui aku ma Betavena mahope on, e Beniamina.
Blow ye the horn in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud at Bethaven, after thee, O Benjamin.
9 A e neoneo auanei o Eperaima i ka la e hoopaiia'i: Mawaena o na ohana o ka Iseraela ua hoike aku au i ka oiaio o ka mea e hiki mai ana.
Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.
10 Ua like na'lii o ka Iuda me ka poe hoonee i ka palena aina: Nolaila e ninini aku au i ko'u huhu maluna o lakou me he wai la.
The princes of Judah were like them that remove a landmark: therefore I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.
11 Ua hooluhiia o Eperaima, ua hookaumahaia ma ka hoohewa, No ka mea, ua lealea oia i ka hele ana mamuli o ke kauoha.
Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment.
12 Nolaila, e like auanei au me ka mu no Eperaima, A me he mea popopo la no ko ka hale o Iuda.
Therefore will I be to Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.
13 A ike iho la o Eperaima i kona mai, a o Iuda hoi i kona. eha, Alaila, hele aku la o Eperaima i Asuria, A hoouna aku la i ke alii ku e: Aole nae e hiki ia ia ke hoola ia oukou, Aole hoi e hoola i ko oukou eha.
When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then Ephraim went to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet he could not heal you, nor cure you of your wound.
14 No ka mea, e like auanei au me he liona la ia Eperaima, A e like me he liona hou la i ko ka hale o Iuda: Owau, owau ke haehae, a hele aku, E lawe pio aku au, aohe mea nana e hoopakele.
For I will be to Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him.
15 E hele au a e hoi aku i ko'u wahi, A e hoopaiia lakou, a e imi mai i kuu maka: I ko lakou wa pilikia e imi koke mai lakou ia'u.
I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.
