Hosea 7:1-16
7 “Be fɛɛ be ni makɛɛ matsa Israel lɛ,Kɛkɛ lɛ, Efraim tɔmɔ lɛ+Kɛ Samaria nɔfɔŋfeemɔ lɛ, eje kpo.+
Ejaakɛ amɛfeɔ nii ni ejaaa;+Julɔi gbuɔ kɛboteɔ mli, ni ojotswalɔi akui shɔ̃ɔ mɛi anii yɛ agbó naa.+
2 Shi amɛkɛɛɛ yɛ amɛtsui mli akɛ makai amɛnifɔjianii lɛ fɛɛ.+
Agbɛnɛ, amɛnifeemɔi lɛ ebɔle amɛ kɛkpe;Fɛɛ yɛ mihiɛ kpaakpa.
3 Amɛkɛ amɛnifɔjianii lɛ hãa maŋtsɛ lɛ mii shɛɔ ehe,Ni amɛkɛ amɛlakamɔ wiemɔi hãa abladei amii shɛɔ amɛhe.
4 Gbalafitelɔi ji amɛ fɛɛ,Amɛmiitso tamɔ flɔnɔɔ ni nishãlɔ ewo mli la,Mɔ ni be ni ekpɔtɔ ashikishaŋ lɛ etã lɛ, ekpaa la lɛ mli tsimɔ kɛyashi ashikishaŋ ni ekpɔtɔ lɛ baafu lɛ.
5 Wɔmaŋtsɛ lɛ gbi lɛ nɔ lɛ, hela emɔmɔ abladei—Wain ehã amɛmli ewo la.+
Ekpã enine mli eta hefɛoyelɔi adɛ̃.
6 Ejaakɛ amɛkɛ tsuii ni tsoɔ tamɔ flɔnɔɔ tsiɔ amɛbɛŋkɛɔ.*
Nyɔɔŋ fɛɛ lɛ, nishãlɔ lɛ wɔɔ;Leebi lɛ, flɔnɔɔ lɛ mli tsoɔ grigri tamɔ lalilɛii.
7 Amɛ fɛɛ amɛdɔ tamɔ flɔnɔɔ,Ni amɛshãa amɛnɔyelɔi* lɛ.
Amɛmaŋtsɛmɛi lɛ fɛɛ egbeegbee shi;+Amɛteŋ mɔ ko mɔ ko ebooo etsɛɛɛ mi.+
8 Efraim kɛ ehe futuɔ jeŋmaji lɛ.+
Efraim tamɔ keeki kokloo ni atsɔko.
9 Gbɔi eye ehewalɛ lɛ,+ shi eleee.
Ni eyiteŋ eyɛ kɛ waji, shi eyɔseee.
10 Shwã ni Israel shwãa lɛ yeɔ odase eshiɔ lɛ diɛŋtsɛ,+Shi amɛkuko amɛsɛɛ kɛbako Yehowa, amɛ-Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ ŋɔɔ,+Ni enɛɛmɛi fɛɛ sɛɛ hu lɛ, amɛtaoko lɛ.
11 Efraim tamɔ okpo kwashia ní bɛ jwɛŋmɔ.*+
Amɛbolɔ amɛtsɛ Ejipt;+ amɛtee Asiria.+
12 He fɛɛ he ni amɛbaaya lɛ, malɛɛ miyaa lɛ mli maha amɛnɔ.
Magbala amɛ kɛba shikpɔŋ tamɔ agbalaa ŋwɛi loofɔji kɛbaa shikpɔŋ lɛ.
Magbala amɛtoi yɛ kɔkɔbɔɔ ni akɛhã amɛsafo muu lɛ fɛɛ lɛ naa.+
13 Kpoo hã amɛ, ejaakɛ amɛjo foi kɛje miŋɔɔ!
Abaakpãtã amɛhiɛ, ejaakɛ amɛtɔ̃ minɔ!
Kulɛ miitao makpɔ̃ amɛ, shi amɛwie mihe amale wiemɔi.+
14 Amɛjɛɛɛ amɛtsui mli amɛbolɔɔɔ amɛtsɛɛɛ mi kɛhã yelikɛbuamɔ,+Shi amɛtee nɔ amɛfó waa yɛ amɛsai anɔ.
Amɛfolɔɔ amɛhe yɛ amɛŋmaa* kɛ amɛwain hee hewɔ;Amɛteɔ shi amɛwoɔ mi.
15 Mitsɔse amɛ ni miwo amɛnijiaŋ hewalɛ moŋ,Shi amɛte shi amɛwo mi, ni amɛtsɔɔ ŋaa fɔŋ.
16 Amɛtsake amɛgbɛ, shi jeee kɛmiiya nɔ ko ni hi jogbaŋŋ he;*Amɛtamɔ gãi ni mli egbɔjɔ, anyɛɛɛ akɛ he afɔ̃ amɛnɔ.+
Amɛbladei lɛ baanyɔnyɔi yɛ klante naa yɛ amɛlilɛii ni tseɔ atua lɛ hewɔ.
Enɛ hewɔ lɛ, amɛbaatsɔmɔ mɛi ni ayeɔ amɛhe fɛo yɛ Ejipt shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ.”+
