< Hosea 14 >

1 Kilekitin O Israel, na Pakai na Pathen hengah. Ajeh chu nathemmona jeh'a lhu nahitai.
O Israel, return unto Jehovah thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.
2 Nasuhkhel ho chu ponlang Pakai henga kilekittan. Akoma seiyin “Kachonsetna jouse neingaidamin, hepitah in nei lalut in. Chutengleh keihon, nangma kachoisang dingu ahi.
Take with you words, and turn to Jehovah; say unto him, Forgive all iniquity, and receive [us] graciously; so will we render the calves of our lips.
3 Assyria in eihuh jou pouve. Keiho jong sakolte chunga toupovinge, Tukalla lhah keihon jong kakhutsoh-u milim doi jah ah ‘ka Pathen’ katikit louhel dingu ahi. Nachunga hin nulou palouten hepina akimujin ahiye” tiuvin.
Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, [Thou art] our God; because in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.
4 Pakaiyin aseiye, “Tahsan um nahijeha kadamsah ding nahiye, Kangailutnan gamgi aneipoi, Kalunghan najouse aimatihchana dingin mangtahen.
I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely; for mine anger is turned away from him.
5 Keima Israel a ding hitange, Vanna kon-a hunglha daitwi chimset tobang hinge. Israel chu Lily pah tobang hiding ahi, ajung jong leipha laiya thuh taha keh hihen, Lebonan lhanga Cedar tobang hin.
I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall blossom as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.
6 Abah lha jong olive thing bangin, namtwi sellin Lebonan-a Cedar phung tobang hihen.
His shoots shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive-tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
7 Kamite kalim noiya umkit ding ahi.
They shall return and sit under his shadow; they shall revive [as] corn, and blossom as the vine: the renown thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon.
8 O Israel, milim doi a konin gamlauvin! Keima nataonau donbutpa chu kahi chule navengtup pao chu kahi. Keima thingphung dumjing jeng chu kahi. Nathingga jouse chu keija kon ahiye.”
Ephraim [shall say], What have I to do any more with idols? (I answer [him], and I will observe him.) I am like a green fir-tree. — From me is thy fruit found.
9 Jite jousen hitihohi hethemuhen, Thil hetkhenna nei jousen phatechan ngaijuvin. Pakai lampi chu adihin chule ajange, Chule midih ho jouse amatoh umkhom ding ahiuve. Ahilah Michonse ho kiseplhuva kijam dan ding ahiuve.
Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? intelligent, and he shall know them? For the ways of Jehovah are right, and the just shall walk in them; but the transgressors shall fall therein.
