< Hosea 7 >

1 When I would heal Israel, then is the iniquity of Ephraim uncovered, and the wickedness of Samaria; for they commit falsehood, and the thief entereth in, and the troop of robbers ravageth without.
Israel te ka hoeih sak vaengah tah Ephraim kathaesainah neh Samaria kah boethae khaw phoe. A honghi a saii uh dongah hlanghuen loh a muk tih vongvoel ah caem a capit thil.
2 And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now have their own doings beset them about; they are before my face.
Tedae a thinko nen pataeng amih kah boethae boeih te ka poek a ti uh moenih. Amamih kah khoboe loh amamih a ven doeah ni ka mikhmuh ah a om uh coeng.
3 They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
Amih kah boethae dongah manghai a kohoe tih amih kah laithae dongah mangpa a kohoe.
4 They are all adulterers; they are as an oven heated by the baker; he ceaseth to stir [the fire], from the kneading of the dough, until it be leavened.
Amih aka samphaih te boeih he buh thong loh a toih tapkhuel banghui ni. Vaidamtlam a nook te a phuelh daengah ni a rhuet te duem pueng.
5 On the day of our king the princes made themselves sick with the heat of wine; he stretched out his hand with scoffers.
Mamih kah manghai khohnin ah tah misurtui kah sue loh mangpa rhoek a nue sak dongah a kut te aka hnukpoh rhoek taengah a thoh.
6 For they have made ready their heart like an oven, while they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
Amih lungbuei te tapkhuel bangla a sulbung neh khoyin khing tawn uh tih a buh thong neh muelh ip. A mincang ah tah hmaisai hmai bangla a toih.
7 They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
Amih te tapkhuel bangla boeih ling tih amih kah laitloek rhoek te khaw a hlawp uh. A manghai rhoek khaw boeih cungku uh tih amih khuiah kai aka khue om pawh.
8 Ephraim, he mixeth himself among the peoples; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
Ephraim amah he pilnam neh a pitpom dongah Ephraim he a hoi mueh buh la poeh.
9 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth [it] not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, and he knoweth [it] not.
Kholong loh a thadueng a yoop pah pataeng a ming moenih. A lu soah sampok a haeh khaw a ming moenih.
10 And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: yet they have not returned unto Jehovah their God, nor sought him, for all this.
A mikhmuh ah Israel kah hoemdamnah a phoe pah lalah a Pathen BOEIPA taengla mael uh pawt tih he boeih nen khaw amah a tlap uh moenih.
11 And Ephraim is like a silly dove, without understanding: they call unto Egypt, they go to Assyria.
Ephraim he lungbuei a tal hil a hloih vahui bangla om. Egypt te a khue uh tih Assyria la cet uh.
12 When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the birds of the heavens; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard.
A caeh van bangla amih soah ka lawk ka phuel vetih amih te vaan kah vaa bangla ka suntlak sak ni. Amamih rhaengpuei kah olthang bangla amih te ka thuituen ni.
13 Woe unto them! for they have wandered from me; destruction unto them! for they have trespassed against me: though I would redeem them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
Kai taeng lamloh a poeng uh dongah amih aih. te anunae. Kai taengah boe a koek dongah amih ham rhoelrhanah om coeng. Kai loh amih ka lat lalah pataeng amih loh kai taengah laithae a thui uh.
14 And they have not cried unto me with their heart, but they howl upon their beds: they assemble themselves for grain and new wine; they rebel against me.
A lungbuei lamloh kai taengah pang uh pawt dae cangpai neh misur thai baih ham tah a thingkong dongah rhung uh tih kai lamloh nong uh.
15 Though I have taught and strengthened their arms, yet do they devise mischief against me.
Kai loh amih ban te ka moem tih ka thuituen dae kai taengah boethae la moeh uh.
16 They return, but not to [him that is] on high; they are like a deceitful bow; their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
A sosang pawt te a mael thil uh tih tangkawl payai bangla om uh. A kosi ol dongah amih kah mangpa rhoek te tumca neh cungku uh ni. Te te Egypt khohmuen ah amih tamdaengnah la om.
