Hosea 6
1 Hungun, Pakai henga kilekit tauhite. Aman ahal hallin eimal teldeh jongleu, tua hi ei-damsah kitdiu ahitai. Aman eimavou ahitan, tua hi imaha hou eitompeh dingu ahitai.
“Come! Let’s return to the LORD; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds.
2 Chomlou kahin ei-kiledohsah kituvin tin, chuteng eiho ama umna-a iumdiu ahi.
After two days he will revive us. On the third day he will raise us up, and we will live before him.
3 Chuteng eihon Pakai ihetdiu ahitai! Kihetthemu hitin, Pakai chu hettei tei ding gouhite. Ahung kumlhah ding teng eihetsah tei nauvinte. Ahiloule leiset chapkotna pangji khalgo banga hung Lenglha jeng ding ahi, tia asei dingu ahi.”
Let’s acknowledge the LORD. Let’s press on to know the LORD. As surely as the sun rises, the LORD will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth.”
4 “O Israel le Juda, Ipi kabolpeh ding nahim?” tin Pakaiyin adonge. “Nangin nei ngailut nahi jingkah meibol bep ahin, nisan asahgot loi jeng daitwi bep ahibouve.
“Ephraim, what shall I do to you? Judah, what shall I do to you? For your love is like a morning cloud, and like the dew that disappears early.
5 Ka themgao ho nasatan tan din kasolin, Kakamsung thuseiya kona thatgam din kasol’e. Kathutan khovah banga kikhodoh tothon kasol’e.
Therefore I have cut them to pieces with the prophets; I killed them with the words of my mouth. Your judgements are like a flash of lightning.
6 Keiman kithoina sangin nei ngailutdiu kadeijon, Pumgo thito sanga, Keima neihetdiu kadeijon ahi.
For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
7 Ahinlah Adam bangin, kakitepna nasukehun, katahsan nasubei uve.
But they, like Adam, have broken the covenant. They were unfaithful to me there.
8 Gilead jong hi michonseho khopi ahin, Thisan sote kengto ngapna ahibouve.
Gilead is a city of those who work iniquity; it is stained with blood.
9 Michom hon mihem achanlhih banguvin, Thempuho jong ahon hon in akikhomuvin, Shechem jotna lampia mi athatuvin hitobang-tahin chonset thil jeng abolluvin ahi.
As gangs of robbers wait to ambush a man, so the company of priests murder on the path towards Shechem, committing shameful crimes.
10 Keiman Israel le Ephraim insunga tijat umtah thil khat kamudoh’e, Kamite noti in apangun, gamchom mite indoi hou nan akisaboiuve.
In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing. There is prostitution in Ephraim. Israel is defiled.
11 Kami Israel themmona le doumah abolnao hi keiman hamphatnaa athahbeh-a semphat ding gojongleng; O Judah nang dingin jong chang atding tepsa a kikoi ahitai.
“Also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I restore the fortunes of my people.
