Hosea 13
1 When Ephraim spake, there was trembling: hee exalted him selfe in Israel, but he hath sinned in Baal, and is dead.
I te korerotanga a Eparaima, tera te tuiri; i whakanui ake ia i a ia i roto i a Iharaira: engari, kei tona henga i roto i a Paara, ka mate ia.
2 And nowe they sinne more and more, and haue made them molten images of their siluer, and idoles according to their owne vnderstanding: they were all the woorke of the craftesmen: they say one to another whiles they sacrifice a man, Let them kisse the calues.
Na inaianei kua neke ake to ratou hara, kua hanga e ratou ta ratou hiriwa hei whakapakoko whakarewa ma ratou, hei whakapakoko e rite ana ki ta ratou i matau ai, a ko taua mea katoa he mahi na nga kaimahi: e korerotia ana aua mea e ratou, Me kihi e nga tangata e mea patunga tapu ana, nga kuao kau.
3 Therefore they shall bee as the morning cloude, and as the morning dewe that passeth away, as the chaffe that is driuen with a whirlewind out of the floore, and as the smoke that goeth out of the chimney.
Mo reira ka rite ratou ki te kapua o te ata, ki te tomairangi hoki e ngaro wawe atu nei, ki te papapa hoki e aia atu ana e te paroro i te patunga witi, a ki te paowa hoki o te tumere.
4 Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt knowe no God but me: for there is no Sauiour beside me.
Ko Ihowa ano ia ahau, ko tou Atua, o te whenua mai ra ano o Ihipa; kaua ano koe e mohio ki tetahi atua, ko ahau anake, kahore atu hoki he kaiwhakaora, ko ahau anake.
5 I did knowe thee in the wildernesse, in the land of drought.
I mohiotia tonutia koe e ahau i te koraha, i te whenua kahore rawa nei he wai.
6 As in their pastures, so were they filled: they were filled, and their heart was exalted: therefore haue they forgotten me.
Ko to ratou makonatanga rite tonu ki te wahi i kai ai ratou; i makona ratou, a whakakake ana o ratou ngakau; na wareware tonu iho ki ahau.
7 And I wil be vnto them as a very lyon, and as a leopard in the way of Asshur.
Na, ko taku ki a ratou, ka rite ki te raiona: ka tiaki ahau i te ara ano he reparo:
8 I will meete them, as a beare that is robbed of her whelpes, and I will breake the kall of their heart, and there will I deuoure them like a lion: the wilde beast shall teare them.
Ko toku tutakitanga ki a ratou ka rite ki to te pea kua tangohia nei ana kuao, ka haea hoki e ahau te taupa o o ratou ngakau; a hei reira ka kainga ratou e ahau ki te kai a te raiona; ka haehaea ratou e te kirehe o te parae.
9 O Israel, one hath destroyed thee, but in me is thine helpe.
Ko tou whakangaromanga ia, e Iharaira, he hoariri koe ki ahau, ki tou kaiawhina.
10 I am: where is thy King, that shoulde help thee in al thy cities? and thy iudges, of whom thou saidest, Giue me a King, and princes?
Kei hea inaianei tou kingi, hei whakaora i a koe i roto i ou pa katoa? ou kaiwhakawa hoki, era i ki ra koe, Homai he kingi me etahi rangatira ki ahau?
11 I gaue thee a King in mine anger, and I tooke him away in my wrath.
Kua hoatu e ahau he kingi ki a koe i ahau e riri ana, a kua tangohia atu ia e ahau i ahau e aritarita ana.
12 The iniquitie of Ephraim is bound vp: his sinne is hid.
Ko te he o Eparaima, takai rawa; ko tona hara, rongoa rawa.
13 The sorowes of a trauailing woman shall come vpon him: he is an vnwise sonne, els would he not stande still at the time, euen at the breaking forth of the children.
Ka pa ki a ia nga mamae o te wahine e whakamamae ana: he tamaiti whakaarokore ia; he wa hoki tenei kia kaua ia e whakaroa ki te wahi e pakaru mai ai nga tamariki.
14 I wil redeeme them from the power of the graue: I will deliuer them from death: O death, I wil be thy death: O graue, I will be thy destruction: repentance is hid from mine eyes. (Sheol h7585)
Ka hokona ratou e ahau ki te kaha o te reinga, ka utua e ahau kei mate. E te mate, kei hea ou mate uruta? E te urupa, kei hea tau whakangaro? ka huna atu te ripeneta i oku kanohi. (Sheol h7585)
15 Though he grewe vp among his brethren, an East winde shall come, euen the winde of the Lord shall come vp from the wildernesse, and drie vp his veine, and his fountaine shalbe dryed vp: he shall spoyle the treasure of all pleasant vessels.
Ahakoa whai hua ia i roto i ona teina, ka puta mai te hau, he marangai, ko te manawa o Ihowa e pa mai ana i te koraha, a ka maroke tona matapuna, ka mimiti tona manawawhenua: ka pahuatia e ia nga taonga o nga oko katoa e matenuitia ana.
16 Samaria shalbe desolate: for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sworde: their infants shalbe dashed in pieces, and their women with childe shalbe ript.
Ka whakawaha e Hamaria tona hara; kua whakakeke hoki ia ki tona Atua: ka hinga ratou i te hoari; ka taia iho a ratou tamariki, mongamonga ana, ka haehaea hoki a ratou wahine e hapu ana.
