Hohea 5
1 Whakarongo ki tenei, e nga tohunga, mahara mai, e te whare o Iharaira, kia whai taringa mai hoki, e te whare o te kingi, mo koutou hoki te whakawa; no te mea kua waiho koutou hei rore ki Mihipa, hei kupenga horahora ki runga ki Taporo.
Zwanini lokhu, bapristi, lilalele, ndlu kaIsrayeli, libeke indlebe, lani ndlu yenkosi. Ngoba isahlulelo singakini, ngoba selibe ngumjibila eMizipa, lembule elendlalwe phezu kweThabhori.
2 A hohonu ana te hounga o te patu a te hunga tutu; ko ahau ia te kairiri i te he o ratou katoa.
Labahlamuki batshonisa ukuhlaba, kodwa ngizakuba ngumlayi wabo bonke.
3 E mohio ana ahau ki a Eparaima, kahore a Iharaira e ngaro i ahau; kei te moepuku nei hoki koe inaianei, e Eparaima, kua poke a Iharaira.
Mina ngiyamazi uEfrayimi, loIsrayeli kafihlakalanga kimi; ngoba khathesi ufebile, wena Efrayimi, uIsrayeli uzingcolisile.
4 E kore hoki ratou e tukua e a ratou mahi kia hoki ki to ratou Atua; kei roto hoki i a ratou te wairua moepuku, kahore o ratou mohio ki a Ihowa.
Kabaqondisi izenzo zabo ukuze baphendukele kuNkulunkulu wabo, ngoba umoya wokuwula uphakathi kwabo, leNkosi kabayazi.
5 E whakaaturia ana ta Iharaira e tona whakapehapeha ki tona aroaro ano: na ka hinga a Iharaira raua ko Eparaima i runga i to raua he, me Hura, ka hinga ngatahi ratou.
Lokuzigqaja kukaIsrayeli kuyafakaza ebusweni bakhe; ngakho uIsrayeli loEfrayimi bazakhubeka esiphambekweni sabo, loJuda uzakhubeka kanye labo.
6 Ka haere ratou me a ratou hipi, me a ratou kau, ki te rapu i a Ihowa; heoi e kore e kitea; kua mawehe atu ia i roto i a ratou.
Bazahamba lezimvu zabo lenkomo zabo ukuyadinga iNkosi, kodwa kabayikuyithola; imonyukile kubo.
7 Kua tinihanga ratou ki a Ihowa: he tamariki tangata ke hoki a ratou tamariki: akuanei ka pau ratou me a ratou wahi i te marama kohiti.
Benze ngenkohliso ngakuyo iNkosi, ngoba bazele abantwana bezizweni. Khathesi inyanga ethwasayo izabaqeda lezabelo zabo.
8 Whakatangihia te koronete ki Kipea, te tetere ki Rama: whakatangihia he whakaoho ki Peteawene; i muri i a koe, e Pineamine.
Vuthelani uphondo lwenqama eGibeya, uphondo eRama, lihlabe umkhosi eBeti-Aveni lithi: Emva kwakho, wena Bhenjamini.
9 Ka ururua a Eparaima i te ra e riria ai te he: takoto rawa te mea kua whakaaturia nei e ahau i roto i nga hapu o Iharaira.
UEfrayimi uzakuba yincithakalo ngosuku lokujeziswa; phakathi kwezizwe zakoIsrayeli ngikwazisile okuliqiniso.
10 E rite ana nga rangatira o Hura ki te hunga e whakaneke atu ana i te rohe; ka tahoroa e ahau toku riri ki runga ki a ratou ano he wai.
Iziphathamandla zakoJuda sezinjengalabo abatshedisa umngcele; ngizathululela phezu kwabo ulaka lwami njengamanzi.
11 E tukinotia ana, e whakapetia ana a Eparaima i te whakawakanga, mona i pai ki te whai i te whakahau.
UEfrayimi ucindezelwe wachotshozwa ngesahlulelo, ngoba wavuma ukuhamba elandela umlayo.
12 Na reira, ka rite taku ki a Eparaima ki ta te purehurehu, ka rite hoki ki te pirau taku ki te whare o Hura.
Ngakho ngizakuba njengenundu koEfrayimi, lanjengokubola endlini yakoJuda.
13 I te wa i kite ai a Eparaima i tona mate, a Hura hoki i tona marutanga, na haere ana a Eparaima ki Ahiria, tuku tangata ana ia ki a Kingi Iarepe: heoi e kore koutou e taea e ia te rongoa, e kore hoki e ora i a ia to koutou marutanga.
Kwathi uEfrayimi ebona umkhuhlane wakhe, loJuda isilonda sakhe, uEfrayimi waya eAsiriya, wathumela ilizwi enkosini yeJarebhi; kodwa yona kayiyikuba lakho ukulelapha, kayiyikupholisa isilonda senu.
14 Ka rite hoki taku ki a Eparaima ki ta te raiona, taku ki te whare o Hura ka rite ki ta te kuao raiona: ka haehae ahau, ina, ahau ano, a ka haere; ka maua atu e ahau, a kahore he kaiwhakaora.
Ngoba ngizakuba njengesilwane koEfrayimi, lanjengebhongo lesilwane endlini yakoJuda. Mina, uqobo lwami, ngizadabudabula, besengihamba, ngisuse, kungabi lomophuli.
15 Ka haere ahau ka hoki ki toku wahi, kia whakaae ra ano ratou ki to ratou he, kia rapua ra ano toku mata e ratou: a, i a ratou e mate ana, kaha tonu ta ratou rapu i ahau.
Ngizahamba ngibuyele endaweni yami, baze bavume icala labo, badinge ubuso bami; ekucindezelweni kwabo bazangidinga ngovivi.
