Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015

“Nilipompata Israeli, ilikuwa kama kupata zabibu jangwani; nilipowaona baba zenu, ilikuwa kama kuona matunda ya kwanza katika mtini. Lakini walipofika Baal-Peori, walijiweka wakfu kwa ile sanamu ya aibu, nao wakawa najisi kama kitu kile walichokipenda.

Hosea 9:10 in English

Hosea 9:10 · Berean Standard Bible

I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness. I saw your fathers as the firstfruits of the fig tree in its first season. But they went to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves to Shame; so they became as detestable as the thing they loved.

Context

8Nabii, pamoja na Mungu wangu, ndiye mlinzi juu ya Efraimu, hata hivyo mitego inamngojea katika mapito yake yote, na uadui katika nyumba ya Mungu wake. 9Wamezama sana katika rushwa, kama katika siku za Gibea. Mungu atakumbuka uovu wao na kuwaadhibu kwa ajili ya dhambi zao. 10“Nilipompata Israeli, ilikuwa kama kupata zabibu jangwani; nilipowaona baba zenu, ilikuwa kama kuona matunda ya kwanza katika mtini. Lakini walipofika Baal-Peori, walijiweka wakfu kwa ile sanamu ya aibu, nao wakawa najisi kama kitu kile walichokipenda. 11Utukufu wa Efraimu utaruka kama ndege: hakuna kuzaa, hakuna kuchukua mimba, hakuna kutunga mimba. 12Hata wakilea watoto, nitamuua kila mmoja. Ole wao nitakapowapiga kisogo!
