Hosea 10 — English–Hebrew Parallel

1 Yashar-Al (Israel) is a luxuriant gapan (vine) that puts shawah (forth) his paray (fruit). According to the rab (abundance) of his paray (fruit) he rabah (has) multiplied his mazabachawath (altars). As their aratz (Earth/land) has prospered, they have adorned their sacred matzabawath (stones).

2 Their lab (heart) is chalaq (divided). Now they will be asham (found) guilty. He will demolish their mazabach (altars). He will shadad (destroy) their sacred matzabah (stones).

3 Surely now they will amar (spoke), “We have no malak (king); for we don't yaraa (fear / be afraid) Yahawah (); and the malak (king), what can he ishah (make) for us?”

4 They make dabarayam (promises), alah (these) shawaa (vanity) in karath (cut) barayath (covenant). Therefore mashapat (judgment) parach (springs) up like poisonous weeds in the thalamay (furrows) of the shadah (field).

5 The shakan (place) of Shamarawan (Samaria) will be in terror for the calves of Bayathaawan (Beth Aven); for its im (nation / people) will abal (mourn) over it, Along with its kamar (priests) who gayal (rejoiced) over it, for its kabawad (glory), because it has departed from it.

6 It also will be yabal (carried) to Ashawar (Assyria) for a manachah (present) to a great malak (king). Aparayam (Ephraim) will laqach (take / seize) bashanah (shame), and Yashar-Al (Israel) will be bawash (ashamed) of his own itzah (counsel).

7 Shamarawan (Samaria) and her malak (king) float away, like a twig on the mayam (Waters).

8 The bamah (high) places also of Awan (Aven), the chataah (sin) of Yashar-Al (Israel), will be destroyed. The qawatz (thorn) and the daradar (thistle) will ilah (go up / offer) up on their mazabach (altars). They will amar (spoke) the harayam (mountains), “kasah (cover) us!” And the gabaiwath (hills), “napal (fall / be cast down) on us!”

9 “Yashar-Al (Israel), you have chataa (sinned) from the yamay (days) of Gabaih (Gibeah). There they imad (remained). The malachamah (battle) against the banay (my son) of ilawah (iniquity) doesn't nashag (overtake) them in Gabaih (Gibeah).

10 When it is my awah (desire), I will yasar (chastise) them; and the imayam (nations) will be asap (gathered) against them, when they are asar (bound) to their shanayam (two) iyan (eye).

11 Aparayam (Ephraim) is a trained igalah (heifer) that ahab (love) to dawash (thresh); so I will ibar (pass over/through) a yoke on her beautiful tzawaar (neck). I will rakab (set) a rider on Aparayam (Ephraim). Yahawadah (Yahawadah / Judah) will charash (plow). Yaiqab (Jacob - Patriarch) will shadad (break) his clods.

12 Zarai (sow) to yourselves in tzadaqah (righteousness), qatzar (reap) according to chasad (grace). Nayar (break) up your fallow nayar (ground); for it is ith (time) to darash (seek) Yahawah (), until he bawaa (come) and rains tzadaq (righteous / just / fair) on you.

13 You have charash (plowed) rashai (wickedness). You have qatzar (reaped) iwal (iniquity). You have akal (eat) the paray (fruit) of kachash (lies), for you batach (trusted) in your darak (way), in the rab (multitude) of your gabawar (mighty) men.

14 Therefore a battle roar will qawam (rise up) among your im (nation / people), and all your fortresses will be shadad (destroyed), as Shalaman (Shalman) destroyed Bayathaarabaal (Beth Arbel) in the yawam (day) of malachamah (battle). The am (mother) was ratash (dashed) in pieces with her banayam (children).

15 So Bayath-Al (Bethel) will ishah (make) to you panayam (face) of your rai (great) rai (wickedness). At daybreak the malak (king) of Yashar-Al (Israel) will be damah (destroyed).
