1 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Dunu afae da ea uda fisiagasea, amola amo uda da e fisili eno dunuma fisia, amo dunu da ea musa: lai uda bu lamu da hamedei. Amai galea, Isala: ili soge da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Be di, Isala: ili, da dunu bagohame ilima wadela: le fi dagoi. Amola, di da wali Nama sinidigimusa: dawa: lala.
One could say, Behold, if a man send away his wife, and she go from him, and become another man's, can he return unto her again? would not that land be greatly polluted? and thou hast played the harlot with many companions, and wilt yet return to me, saith the Lord.
2 Agolo da: iya gadodafa ba: ma! Soge huluane amoga di da hina: da: i bidi lasu uda ea hou defele hamosu. A: la: be dunu da hafoga: i sogega eno dunu famusa: ouligisa. Amo defele, di da logo bega: , dunu eno dima udigili golamusa: hogoi helelalebe ba: i. Dina: da: i bidi lasu hou da soge huluane wadela: lesi dagoi.
Lift up thy eyes unto the mountain-tops, and see where thou hast not been lain with. On public roads hast thou sat for them, as the Arab in the wilderness; and thou hast polluted the land with thy incests and with thy wickedness.
3 Amaiba: le, Na da gibu logo ga: si dagoi. Amola woufo esoga Na da wou dabe logo ga: si dagoi. Di da dafawane hina: da: i bidi lasu uda defele ba: sa. Di da gogosiamu hame dawa:
And [though] the early showers were withholden, and the latter rain came not: yet hadst thou a forehead of an incestuous wife, thou refusedst to feel shame.
4 Amola, wali di da Nama amane sia: sa, ‘Di da na ada. Di da na musa: manohadi eso amogainini wali nama asigi galu.
Wilt thou not from this time call out unto mem My father, the guide of my youth art thou?
5 Di da nama ougi be eso huluane hame ougimu.’ Di amane sia: i, Isala: ili! Be dia hanaiga baligili wadela: i hou hamonanu.”
Will he bear grudge for ever? will he keep it to eternity? Behold, thou hast spoken [this], and yet hast done the things that are evil as much as thou wast able.
6 Yousaia da Yuda soge amoma hina bagade esaloba, Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Isala: ili da hohonosu uda defele esala. Dia da ea hamoi ba: bela: ? E da Na fisili, agolo bagade huluane amo da: iya amola golofoyei ifa huluane amo hagudu, e da hina: da: i bidi lasu uda ea hou defele hamonanu.
And the Lord said unto me in the days of Josiah the king, Hast thou seen what backsliding Israel hath done? she is gone upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and hath played the harlot there.
7 Amo hamonanu, e da Nama bu sinidigimu, Na da dawa: iou. Be e da Nama hame sinidigi amola ea hohonosu dalusi Yuda amo hou huluane ba: i dagoi.
And I thought that after she had done all these things, she would return unto me. But she returned not. And this saw her treacherous sister Judah.
8 Isala: ili da Nama baligi fa: le, hina: da: i bidi lasu uda ea hou defele hamobeba: le, Na da uda fisiagasu hou defele e fisiagale, ga masa: ne asunasi. Yuda da amo hou amola ba: i dagoi. Be Yuda, Isala: ili ea hohonosu dalusi, e amola da mae beda: ne, hina: da: i bidi lasu uda ea hou defele hamoi.
And I saw, that, although because backsliding Israel had committed adultery, I had sent her away, and given her bill of divorce unto her, still treacherous Judah her sister feared not, but went and played herself the harlot also.
9 E da mae gogosiane, wadela: i uda lasu hou defele, igi amola ifa amoma nodone sia: ne gadosu.
And it came to pass through her giddy incest, that she defiled the land, and committed adultery with stone and with wood.
10 Amolalu, Yuda (Isala: ili ea hohonosu dalusi) da Nama sinidigimusa: sia: i. Be e da ogogoi. E da moloidafa hou hamedafa dawa: i galu. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.”
And yet with all this her treacherous sister Judah hath not returned unto me with all her heart, but with falsehood, saith the Lord.
11 Amalalu, Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Dafawane! Isala: ili da Na yolesi dagoi. Be Yuda ea wadela: i hohonosu hou da Isala: ili ea hou baligi dagoi.”
And the Lord said unto me, The backsliding Israel hath justified herself through the treacherous Judah.
12 Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Isala: ili fi ilima asili, amane sia: ma, ‘Hohonosu Isala: ili fi! Nama bu sinidigima. Na da asigi amola gogolema: ne olofosu hou dawa: Na da hame ougimu. Na da eso huluane ougili esalusu hame dawa:
Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the Lord: I will not cause my anger to fall upon you; for I am full of kindness, saith the Lord, I will not hear grudge for ever.
13 Be dia wadela: i hou amola Nama odoga: su hou amo fawane fofada: ma. Di da golofoyei ifa huluane amo hagudu, ga fi ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilima asigi hou olelei, amola Na sema hame nabasu. Amo fofada: nanu, Nama sinidigima. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.
Only acknowledge thy iniquity, that against the Lord thy God thou hast rebelled, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and that unto my voice ye have not hearkened, saith the Lord.
14 Hohonosu dunu fi! Sinidigima! Dilia da Na fi. Na da moilai huluane afae afae amoga dunu afae lale, amola fi huluane amoga dunu aduna lale, amola Saione Goumiga dili bu oule misunu.
Return, O backsliding children, saith the Lord; for I am become your husband; and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and bring you to Zion:
15 Ouligisu dunu amo da Na sia: naba dunu, amo Na da dilima imunu. Amola ilia da dawa: iwane amola asigiwane dili ouligimu.
And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, and they shall feed you with knowledge and intelligence.
16 Amasea, dilia idi da amo soge ganodini bagade heda: sea, dunu da Na Sema Gousa: su Gagili ea hou bu hame sia: mu. Ilia da amo bu hame dawa: mu, ilia da gogolemu. Bai ilia da hahawane esalebeba: le, Gousa: su Gagili ea fidisu hame hogomu. Amola ilia da eno Gousa: su Gagili hame hahamomu.
And it shall come to pass, when ye multiply and increase in the land, in those days, saith the Lord, that men shall not say any more, “The ark of the covenant of the Lord;” nor shall it come any more to mind; nor shall they remember it; nor shall they mention it; nor shall any thing be done any more [with it].
17 Bai amo eso da doaga: sea, ilia da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade amoma dio ‘Hina Gode Ea Fisu’ asulimu. Amola fifi asi gala huluane da Nama nodone sia: ne gadomusa: gilisimu. Ilia da ilia wadela: i dogo asigi dawa: su ea hanaiga bu hame hamomu.
At that time shall they call Jerusalem, The throne of the Lord; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the Lord, to Jerusalem: and they shall not walk any more after the stubbornness of their evil heart.
18 Isala: ili fi da Yuda fi ilima gilisimu. Amola, elea fi dunu fifi asi gala gagoe (north) gala amoga mugululi asi da soge amo Na da dilia aowalalia ilima eso huluane gaguma: ne i, amoga bu sinidigimu.”
In those days shall the house of Judah walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north unto the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.
19 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili! Na da di Nagofe esaloma: ne hanai galu. Na da dima soge ida: iwane gala, eno osobo bagade soge baligi soge, amo dima imunusa: dawa: i galu. Di da Nama Ada dio asulimu, amola eso huluane bu Na hame fisimu, Na da dawa: i galu.
But I had thought, How shall I establish thee among the [other] sons [of man], and give thee a desirable land, a heritage of glory of the hosts of nations? and I thought, My father thou wouldst call me, and that from me thou wouldst not turn away.
20 Be di da hohonosu uda defele, Nama hohonoi dagoi. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.”
But truly as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, saith the Lord.
21 Agolo da: iya sia: bagade da naba. Amo da Isala: ili dunu, ilia da disa edegelala. Bai ilia da wadela: le hamosa esalu, amola ilia Hina Gode gogolei galu.
A voice is now heard upon the mountain-tops, the supplicatory weeping of the children of Israel; for they have perverted their way, they have forgotten the Lord their God.
22 Dilia huluane da Hina Gode yolesi. Be bu sinidigima! E da dili uhinisimu amola dili bu didili hamoma: ne hamomu. Dilia da amane sia: sa, “Dafawane! Ninia da Hina Godema manebe goea. Bai E da ninia Gode.
Return, ye backsliding children, I will heal your backslidings. “Behold, we come unto thee; for thou art the Lord our God.
23 Ninia da agolo da: iya ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu, be fidisu hame ba: i. Hina Gode, ninia Gode, Hifawane da fidisu dawa:
Truly deceptive was [what we hoped for] from the hills, and the multitude on the mountains; truly in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel.
24 Be ninia da Ba: iele (gogosiasu ‘gode’) ema sia: ne gadobeba: le, ninia sibi, bulamagau gilisisu, ninia dunu mano amola uda mano da fisi dagoi. Liligi huluane amo ninia aowalalia da lama: ne bagadewane hawa: hamosu, amo huluane da fisi dagoi ba: sa.
And shame hath devoured the acquisition of our fathers from our youth, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.
25 Ninia da diasa: ili, ninia gogosiasu amoga dedeboi dagoi ba: mu da defea. Ninia amola ninia aowalalia da mae fisili, ninia Hina Godema wadela: lewane hamonanu. Ninia da Ea sia: hamedafa nabasu.”
We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us; for against the Lord our God have we sinned, we and our fathers, from our youth even until this day; and we have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord our God.”
