< Hoseya 3 >
1 Yehova anati kwa ine, “Pita kamukondenso mkazi wako, ngakhale ali pa chibwenzi ndi wina ndi kuti ndi wachigololo. Mukonde iyeyo monga momwe Yehova amakondera Aisraeli, ngakhale iwo amapita kukapembedza milungu ina ndi kukonda nsembe za keke zamphesa zowuma.”
Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Dhiyo, inyis herani ni chiegi kendo, kata obedo ni ohere gi ngʼama chielo, kendo en jachode. Here kaka Nyasaye ohero jo-Israel, kata obedo ni gisebaro ka gihero nyiseche moko kendo gihero chiwonigi misengini mag mzabibu motwo.”
2 Motero ndinamukwatira popereka ndalama khumi ndi zisanu zasiliva, ndiponso mitanga isanu ndi iwiri ya barele.
Omiyo ne angʼiewe kuom shekel apar gabich mag fedha gi gunde ariyo mag shairi.
3 Kenaka ndinamuwuza mkaziyo kuti, “Ukhale nane masiku ambiri; usachitenso zachiwerewere kapena chigololo ndi munthu wina, ndipo ine ndidzakhala nawe.”
Eka ne awachone niya, “Nyaka idag koda kuom ndalo mathoth; nyaka iwe timbegi mag chode kata riwori gi ngʼato, to abiro dak kodi.”
4 Pakuti Aisraeli adzakhala masiku ambiri opanda mfumu kapena kalonga, osapereka nsembe kapena kuyimika miyala yachipembedzo, wopanda efodi kapena fano.
Nimar jo-Israel biro dak ndalo mangʼeny ka gionge gi ruoth kata jotelo, ka ok gitim misango maonge kido moro milamo, kata law akor mar dolo miluongo ni efod kata nyiseche manono.
5 Pambuyo pake Aisraeli adzabwerera ndi kufunafuna Yehova Mulungu wawo ndi Davide mfumu yawo. Adzabwera kwa Yehova akunjenjemera ndipo adzalandira madalitso mʼmasiku awo otsiriza.
To bangʼe jo-Israel biro duogo ka gidwaro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi gi Daudi ruodhgi. Ginibi ka gitetni e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kendo e gwethne e ndalo mogik.
