Oseas 13

1 Idi nagsao ti Efraim, adda iti panagtigerger. Intak-okna ti bagina idiay Israel, ngem nagbasol ti Efraim gapu iti panagdaydayawda kenni Baal ket natay isuna.

When Ephraim spake trembling, he exalted himself in Israel; but when he offended in Baal, he died.

2 Ita, ad-adda pay ti panagbasolda. Nagaramidda kadagiti landok nga imahen manipud kadagiti pirakda, dagiti didiosen a napintas iti pannakaaramidna, amin dagitoy ket aramid dagiti agkitkitikit. Kuna dagiti tattao kadakuada, 'Dagitoy a lallaki nga agidatdaton ket umag-agepda kadagiti sinan-urbon a baka.’

And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, [and] idols according to their own understanding, all of it the work of the craftsmen: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves.

3 Isu a maiyarigdanto kadagiti ulep iti agsapa, a kas iti linnaaw a nasapa a mapukaw, kas iti taep a maiyangin manipud iti pagirikan, ken kas iti asuk a rumuar iti simborio.

Therefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the early dew that passeth away, as the chaff [that] is driven with the whirlwind out of the floor, and as the smoke out of the chimney.

4 Ngem siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo, a nangiruar kadakayo manipud iti daga ti Egipto. Masapul nga awan ti sabali a bigbigenyo a Dios no di siak laeng; masapul a bigbigenyo a malaksid kaniak, awanen ti sabali a mangisalakan.

Yet I [am] the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for [there is] no saviour beside me.

5 Naam-ammokayo idiay let-ang, iti daga a kasta unay ti kinamagana.

I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought.

6 Idi naaddaankayo ti pagpaaraban, ket nabsogkayo; ket idi nabsogkayo, timmangsit ti pusoyo; gapu iti dayta a rason ket nalipatandak.

According to their pasture, so were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted; therefore have they forgotten me.

7 Nagbalinak a kas iti maysa a leon kadakuada; a kas iti maysa a leopardo ket agurayakto iti igid ti dalan.

Therefore I will be unto them as a lion: as a leopard by the way will I observe [them: ]

8 Darupekto ida a kas iti panangdarup ti maysa nga oso a natakawan kadagiti annakna. Wakwakekto dagiti barukongda, ket sadiay alun-onekto ida a kas iti maysa a leon— kasla narungsot nga ayup a mangrangrangkay kadakuada.

I will meet them as a bear [that is] bereaved [of her whelps], and will rend the caul of their heart, and there will I devour them like a lion: the wild beast shall tear them.

9 Daytoy ti umadanin a pannakadadaelmo, Israel, gapu ta bimmusorka kaniak, a katulongam.

O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but in me [is] thine help.

10 Sadino itan ti ayan ti arim, tapno maisalakannaka kadagiti amin a siudadmo? Sadino ti ayan dagiti mangidadaulom, nga imbagam kaniak, 'Ikkannak ti ari ken kadagiti prinsipe'?

I will be thy king: where [is any other] that may save thee in all thy cities? and thy judges of whom thou saidst, Give me a king and princes?

11 Iti ungetko inikkanka iti maysa nga ari, ngem iti pungtotko, impanawko isuna.

I gave thee a king in mine anger, and took [him] away in my wrath.

12 Naidulin dagiti kinadakes ti Efraim; naidulin dagiti basbasolna.

The iniquity of Ephraim [is] bound up; his sin [is] hid.

13 Dumtengto kenkuana dagiti ut-ot ti panagpasngay, ngem isuna ket saan a nasirib nga anak, ta inton tiempo a maipasngay, saan isuna a rummuar iti aanakan.

The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him: he [is] an unwise son; for he should not stay long in [the place of] the breaking forth of children.

14 Ispalekto kadi ida manipud iti bileg ti lubong dagiti natay? Ispalekto kadi ida manipud iti ipapatay? Patay, sadino ti ayan dagiti didigram? Iyegmo ida ditoy. Lubong dagiti natay, sadino ti ayan ti pagdadaelmo? Iyegmo ditoy. Ti kinamanangngaasi ket nailinged manipud kadagiti matak.” (Sheol h7585)

I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from mine eyes. (Sheol h7585)

15 Uray no narangrang-ay ti Efraim ngem kadagiti kakabsatna, umayto ti angin iti daya; agpuyupoyto ti angin ni Yahweh manipud iti let-ang. Agmaganto ti ubbog ti Efraim, ken matiananto ti bubonna. Samsamento dagiti kabusorna ti pagiduldulinanna kadagiti amin a napapateg a banag.

Though he be fruitful among [his] brethren, an east wind shall come, the wind of the LORD shall come up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up: he shall spoil the treasure of all pleasant vessels.

16 Madusanto ti Samaria, ta nagsukir iti Diosna. Matnagdanto babaen iti kampilan; marumrumekto dagiti ubbingda ken maburayrayanto dagiti masikog a babbai.

Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up.
