Hosea 12
1 Ephraim is fed with the winde, and followeth after the East winde: hee increaseth daily lies and destruction, and they do make a couenant with Asshur, and oyle is caried into Egypt.
Ma nukewa mwet Israel uh oru ke lotutang lac nwe ke fong uh, wangin sripa ac mwe na kunausten. Kutasrik ac orekma sulallal yokelik inmasrlolos. Elos orek wulela yurin mwet Assyria, ac kukakin oil in olive nu sin mwet Egypt.”
2 The Lord hath also a controuersie with Iudah, and will visite Iaakob, according to his waies: according to his workes, wil he recompence him.
LEUM GOD El ac fahkak ma sutuu lun mwet Judah; El ac oayapa kai mwet Israel ke ouiyen mukuikui lalos. El ac folokin nu selos fal nu ke orekma lalos.
3 Hee tooke his brother by the heele in the wombe, and by his strength he had power with God,
Jacob, papa matu tumalos, el tuh alein nu sel Esau, tamulel lal, ke eltal srakna oan insien nina kialtal. Ke Jacob el matula, el anwuk lain God.
4 And had power ouer the Angel, and preuailed: he wept and praied vnto him: he founde him in Beth-el, and there he spake with vs.
El anwuk nu sin sie lipufan ac katangulla. El tung ac siyuk ke sie mwe insewowo. In acn Bethel God El tuku nu yurin papa matu tumasr Jacob, ac kaskas nu sel.
5 Yea, the Lord God of hostes, the Lord is himselfe his memoriall.
LEUM GOD Kulana pa inge — Inel pa LEUM GOD.
6 Therefore turne thou to thy God: keepe mercy and iudgement, and hope still in thy God.
Ouinge, kowos fwilin tulik natul Jacob, kowos in lulalfongi God lowos, ac foloko nu yorol. Kowos in inse pwaye nu sel ac oru ma suwohs, ac mongfisrasr in tupan God lowos.
7 He is Canaan: the balances of deceit are in his hand: he loueth to oppresse.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Israel elos kikiap oana mwet Canaan. Elos lungsena orekmakin mwe paun kikiap nu sin mwet ma som moul yorolos.
8 And Ephraim saide, Notwithstanding I am rich, I haue found me out riches in all my labours: they shall finde none iniquitie in me, that were wickednesse.
Elos fahk, ‘Kut kasrup. Kut eis mwe insewowo puspis, ac wangin mwet ku in fahk mu kut kasrupi ke inkanek kutasrik.’
9 Though I am the Lord thy God, from the land of Egypt, yet will I make thee to dwel in the tabernacles, as in the daies of the solemne feast.
Tusruktu nga, LEUM GOD lowos, su pwenkowosla liki Egypt, nga ac sifilpa oru kowos in muta in lohm nuknuk oana ke pacl se nga tuh sun kowos yen mwesis.
10 I haue also spoken by the Prophets, and I haue multiplied visions, and vsed similitudes by the ministerie of the Prophets.
“Nga sramsram nu sin mwet palu, ac sang elos in liye aruruma puspis, ac sang kas in sensenkakin nu selos in fahkak nu sin mwet luk.
11 Is there iniquitie in Gilead? surely they are vanitie: they sacrifice bullocks in Gilgal, and their altars are as heapes in the furrowes of the field.
Ne ouinge, elos srakna alu nu ke ma sruloala in acn Gilead, ac elos su alu nu kac fah misa. Cow mukul uh kisakinyuk in acn Gilgal, na loang in kisa we fah yolin eot se na inima uh.”
12 And Iaakob fled into the countrey of Aram, and Israel serued for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheepe.
Papa matu tumasr, Jacob, el tuh enenu in kaing nu Mesopotamia, na el tuh orekma lun siena mukul ac liyaung sheep natul tuh elan ku in eis sie mutan kial.
13 And by a Prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a Prophet was he reserued.
LEUM GOD El supwala sie mwet palu in molela mwet Israel liki moul in kohs lalos in facl Egypt, ac in karinganulosyang.
14 But Ephraim prouoked him with hie places: therefore shall his blood be powred vpon him, and his reproche shall his Lord reward him.
Mwet Israel elos arulana akkasrkusrakye LEUM GOD, ac fal na elos in misa ke sripen orekma koluk lalos. LEUM GOD El fah kaelos ke sripen elos aklusrongtenyal.
