¹Rejoice not, Israel, exultingly, as the peoples; for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God, thou hast loved harlot's hire upon every corn-floor.

¹Aza dia fatra-pifaly loatra, toy ny firenena hafa, ry Isiraely; Fa ianao efa nijangajanga niala tamin'Andriamanitrao sady efa tia tangy teny am-pamoloana rehetra;

²The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail her.

²Ny famoloana sy ny fanantazana tsy hahavelona azy, ary hahadiso fanantenana azy ny ranom-boaloboka.

³They shall not dwell in Jehovah's land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and in Assyria shall they eat that which is unclean.

³Tsy honina ao amin'ny tanin'i Jehovah izy; Fa Efraima hiverina ho any Egypta ary hihinana zava-padina any Asyria.

⁴They shall pour out no [offerings of] wine to Jehovah, neither shall their sacrifices be pleasing unto him: they shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be defiled: for their bread shall be for themselves; it shall not come into the house of Jehovah.

⁴Tsy hanidina divay ho fanatitra ho an'i Jehovah izy, ary tsy hankasitrahany; Ny zavatra vonoiny hatao fanatitra dia ho toy ny fahan-kanina ho an'ny mpisaona aminy: Izay rehetra homana izany dia voaloto; Fa ny haniny dia ho an'ny tenany ihany, fa tsy ho tafiditra ao an-tranon'i Jehovah.

⁵What will ye do in the day of assembly, and in the day of the feast of Jehovah?

⁵Hanao ahoana kosa re ianareo, raha mby amin'ny fotoam-pivavahana sy amin'ny andro firavoravoana voatendrin'i Jehovah?

⁶For behold, they are gone away because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them up, Moph shall bury them: their pleasant things of silver, nettles shall possess them; thorns shall be in their tents.

⁶Fa he! lasa izy noho ny fandringanana; Egypta no hanangona azy, Memfisa no handevina azy; Ny fana-bolafotsiny mahafinaritra dia ho lasan'ny amiana, tsilo no ho ao an-dainy.[Na: miala amin']

⁷The days of visitation are come; the days of recompence are come: Israel shall know [it]: the prophet is a fool, the inspired man is mad, because of the greatness of thine iniquity, and the great enmity.

⁷Tonga ireo andro famaliana, tonga ireo andro fanodiavana Ho fantatr'Isiraely fa adala ny mpaminany, ary very saina ny olona tsindriam-panahy noho ny hamaroan'ny helokao sy ny habetsahan'ny fanoherana.

⁸Is Ephraim a watchman with my God? [nay] the prophet is a fowler's snare on all his ways, enmity in the house of his God.

⁸Efraima dia mizaha, nefa tsy avy amin'Andriamanitro; Ny mpaminany dia fandriky ny mpamandri-borona eny amin'ny alehany rehetra sy fanoherana ao an-tranon'Andriamaniny.[Na: Efraima dia tily tao amin'Andriamanitro]

⁹They have deeply corrupted themselves as in the days of Gibeah. He will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.

⁹Fatra-panao ratsy toy ny tamin'ny andro tany Gibea izy; Ka dia hotsarovana ny helony, ary hovaliana ny fahotany.

¹⁰I found Israel as grapes in the wilderness; as first-ripe fruit on the fig-tree, I saw your fathers at the beginning: they went to Baal-Peor, and separated themselves unto that shame, and became abominations like their lover.

¹⁰Tahaka ny fahitana voaloboka any an-efitra no nahitako ny Isiraely, toy ny fahitana aviavy mialin-taona no nahitako ny razanareo; Nefa ireny dia tonga tany Bala-peora ka nanolo-tena ho amin'ilay mampahamenatra, ka dia tonga fahavetavetana tahaka an'ilay tiany ihany izy.

¹¹As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away as a bird, -- no birth, no pregnancy, no conception!

¹¹Ny amin'i Efraima, hihelina toy ny voro-manidina ny voninahiny, ka tsy hisy hiteraka, na hanan'anaka, na ho torontoronina.

¹²For even should they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, [that] not a man [remain]: for woe also to them when I shall have departed from them!

¹²Na dia misy mitaiza zanaka aza izy, dia hofoanako ihany ireny, ka tsy hisy miangana; Eny, hahita loza koa izy amin'ny handaozako azy!

¹³Ephraim, as I saw [him], was a Tyre planted in a beautiful place; but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the slayer.

¹³Efraima, raha araka ny hitako, dia voavoly ao amin'ny tany mahafinaritra tahaka an'i Tyro, nefa tsy maintsy mamoaka ny zanany ho amin'ny mpamono izy.[Na: araka ny nahitako azy hatrany Tyro, dia voavoly, etc]

¹⁴Give them, Jehovah -- what wilt thou give? -- give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.

¹⁴Jehovah ô, omeo azy - inona no homenao azy? Omeo azy ny kibo tsy mahazo zaza sy ny nono ritra.[Na: momba]

¹⁵All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I hated them: because of the wickedness of their doings, I will drive them out of my house, I will love them no more: all their princes are rebellious.

¹⁵Ao Gilgala ny fahotany rehetra, eny, tao no vao nankahalako azy; Noho ny faharatsian'ny ataony dia horoahiko hiala ao an-tranoko izy; Tsy ho tia azy intsony Aho, mpiodina avokoa ny mpanapaka azy.

¹⁶Ephraim is smitten: their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit; yea, though they should bring forth, yet will I slay the beloved [fruit] of their womb.

¹⁶Voaratra Efraima, maina ny fakany, ka tsy hamoa izy; Eny, na dia miteraka aza izy, dia hovonoiko ny zanany mahafinaritra azy.Harian'Andriamanitro izy, satria tsy nihaino Azy; Ka dia ho tonga mpirenireny any amin'ny jentilisa izy.

¹⁷My God hath rejected them, because they hearkened not unto him; and they shall be wanderers among the nations.

¹⁷Harian'Andriamanitro izy, satria tsy nihaino Azy; Ka dia ho tonga mpirenireny any amin'ny jentilisa izy.
