Hosea 8
1 Set the trumpet to thy mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of the LORD, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law.
Ataovy eo am-bavanao ny anjomara! Fa hisy toy ny voromahery hipaoka ny tranon’ i Jehovah, satria efa nivadika ny fanekeko sy nandika ny lalàko ireo.
2 Israel shall cry to me, My God, we know thee.
Izaho dia hitarainany hoe: Andriamanitro ô, izahay Isiraely mahalala Anao.
3 Israel hath cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him.
Ataon’ ny Isiraely ho zavatra maharikoriko ny soa; Ny fahavalo no hanenjika azy.
4 They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made for themselves idols, that they may be cut off.
Ireny dia nanangana mpanjaka nefa tsy avy tamiko; Nifidy mpanapaka izy, nefa tsy fantatro; Ny volafotsiny sy ny volamenany no nataony sampiny mba hamongorana azy.
5 Thy calf, O Samaria, hath cast thee off; my anger is kindled against them: how long will it be ere they attain to innocency?
Maharikoriko ilay ombilahy kelinao, ry Samaria; Mirehitra aminareo ny fahatezerako; Mandra-pahoviana no tsy ho tohanareo ny fahadiovana?
6 For from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
Fa avy tamin’ ny Isiraely koa izany; Ny mpiasa no nanao azy, ka dia tsy Andriamanitra izy, fa ho torotoro ilay ombilahy kelin’ i Samaria.
7 For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it hath no stalk: the bud shall yield no meal: if it shall yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.
Fa rivotra no nafafiny, ary tadio no hojinjany; Tsy misy vary mitsangana, ny salohiny tsy hisy ventiny; Ary raha tàhiny hisy aza, dia ny olona hafa firenena no hihinana azy.
8 Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel in which is no pleasure.
Voatelina Isiraely; Ankehitriny dia efa tonga tahaka ny fanaka tsy mahafinaritra izy any amin’ ny jentilisa.
9 For they have gone up to Assyria, a wild donkey alone by himself: Ephraim hath hired lovers.
Fa niakatra ho any Asyria izy Toy ny borikidia mandeha irery; Efraima dia nanangy ireo lehilahiny
10 Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.
Ary na dia nanangy tany amin’ ny jentilisa aza izy, dia hovoriko ankehitriny; Ary hihavitsy izy noho ny entan’ ny mpanjakan’ ireo mpanapaka.
11 Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin, altars shall be to him to sin.
Fa Efraima nanao alitara maro hanotana, eny, efa nahazo alitara hanotana izy.
12 I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing.
Na dia soratako ho azy ny teny betsaka amin’ ny lalàko aza, dia ataony ho toy ny zavatra tsy izy izany.
13 They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of my offerings, and eat it; but the LORD accepteth them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and judge their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
Mamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho Ahy izy, eny, mihinana ny henan’ izany, nefa tsy sitrak’ i Jehovah izany; Ankehitriny dia hotsarovany ny fahotany, ary hovaliany ny helony; Eny, izy ireny dia hiverina ho any Egypta.
14 For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fortified cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour his palaces.
Efa nanadino ny Mpanao azy Isiraely ka nanorina trano vaventy, ary Joda nanamaro tanàna mimanda; Fa haterako afo ao an-tanànany, ka holevonin’ izany ny trano vaventiny.
