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;
1`Rejoice not, O Israel, be not joyful like the peoples, For thou hast gone a-whoring from thy God, Thou hast loved a gift near all floors of corn.
2Ny famoloana sy ny fanantazana tsy hahavelona azy, ary hahadiso fanantenana azy ny ranom-boaloboka.
2Floor and wine-press do not delight them, And new wine doth fail in her,
3Tsy honina ao amin'ny tanin'i Jehovah izy; Fa Efraima hiverina ho any Egypta ary hihinana zava-padina any Asyria.
3They do not abide in the land of Jehovah, And turned back hath Ephraim [to] Egypt, And in Asshur an unclean thing they eat.
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.
4They pour not out wine to Jehovah, Nor are they sweet to Him, Their sacrifices [are] as bread of mourners to them, All eating it are unclean: For their bread [is] for themselves, It doth not come into the house of Jehovah.
5Hanao ahoana kosa re ianareo, raha mby amin'ny fotoam-pivavahana sy amin'ny andro firavoravoana voatendrin'i Jehovah?
5What do ye at the day appointed? And at the day of Jehovah`s festival?
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']
6For, lo, they have gone because of destruction, Egypt gathereth them, Moph burieth them, The desirable things of their silver, Nettles possess them — a thorn [is] in their tents.
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.
7Come in have the days of inspection, Come in have the days of recompence, Israel doth know! a fool [is] the prophet, Mad [is] the man of the Spirit, Because of the abundance of thine iniquity, And great [is] the hatred.
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]
8Ephraim is looking [away] from My God, The prophet! a snare of a fowler [is] over all his ways, Hatred [is] in the house of his God.
9Fatra-panao ratsy toy ny tamin'ny andro tany Gibea izy; Ka dia hotsarovana ny helony, ary hovaliana ny fahotany.
9They have gone deep — have done corruptly, As [in] the days of Gibeah, He doth remember their iniquity, He doth inspect their sins.
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.
10As grapes in a wilderness I found Israel, As the first-fruit in a fig-tree, at its beginning, I have seen your fathers, They — they have gone in [to] Baal-Peor, And are separated to a shameful thing, And are become abominable like their love.
11Ny amin'i Efraima, hihelina toy ny voro-manidina ny voninahiny, ka tsy hisy hiteraka, na hanan'anaka, na ho torontoronina.
11Ephraim [is] as a fowl, Fly away doth their honour, without birth, And without womb, and without conception.
12Na dia misy mitaiza zanaka aza izy, dia hofoanako ihany ireny, ka tsy hisy miangana; Eny, hahita loza koa izy amin'ny handaozako azy!
12For though they nourish their sons, I have made them childless — without man, Surely also, wo to them, when I turn aside from them.
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]
13Ephraim! when I have looked to the rock, Is planted in comeliness, And Ephraim [is] to bring out unto a slayer his sons.
14Jehovah ô, omeo azy - inona no homenao azy? Omeo azy ny kibo tsy mahazo zaza sy ny nono ritra.[Na: momba]
14Give to them, Jehovah — what dost Thou give? Give to them miscarrying womb, and dry breasts.
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.
15All their evil [is] in Gilgal, Surely there I have hated them, Because of the evil of their doings, Out of My house I do drive them, I add not to love them, all their heads [are] apostates.
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.
16Ephraim hath been smitten, Their root hath dried up, fruit they yield not, Yea, though they bring forth, I have put to death the desired of their womb.
17Harian'Andriamanitro izy, satria tsy nihaino Azy; Ka dia ho tonga mpirenireny any amin'ny jentilisa izy.
17Reject them doth my God, Because they have not hearkened to Him, And they are wanderers among nations!
