< Hosi 1 >
1 Judah siangpahrang Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz hoi Hezekiah tinaw a bawi nah, Joash capa, Jeroboam ni Isarel siangpahrang a tawk nah Beeri capa Hosi koe ka tho e Cathut lawk teh,
The Lord sent a message to Hosea son of Beeri at the time when Uzziah, Jotham, and Ahaz were the kings of Judah, and Jeroboam son of Jehoash was the king of Israel.
2 Nang ni cet nateh atak kâyawt e napui hoi a canaw hah na yu lah lat haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, khocanaw ni Cathut a pahnawt awh teh boutbout a payon awh toe telah Hosi koe Cathut ni atipouh.
The Lord began speaking through Hosea by telling him, “Go and take a wife who is a prostitute and have children born to a prostitute because those living in this land have committed terrible prostitution by turning away from the Lord.”
3 Hosi ni Cathut ni a dei e patetlah a cei teh, Debalaim canu, Gomer hah a yu lah a la. A yu ni camo a vawn teh ca tongpa a khe.
So Hosea went and married Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim. She became pregnant and bore Hosea a son.
4 Hatnavah Cathut ni Hosi koe, hete camo e min teh Jezreel phung loe atipouh. Bangkongtetpawiteh a ro hoehnahlan Jezreel theinae phu teh Jehu imthung koe moi ka pathung vaiteh, Isarel ram a uknaeram tueng ka baw sak pouh awh han.
The Lord told Hosea, “Call him Jezreel, because I am going to punish the house of Jehu for the blood he shed at Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of Israel.
5 Hahoi, Jezreel yawn dawk Isarel ransanaw e thaonae teh ka raphoe han telah a ti.
On that day I will break Israel's military power in the valley of Jezreel.”
6 Gomer ni camo apâhni lah bout a vawn teh napui a khe. Bawipa ni min teh Loruhamah phung loe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarelnaw teh ka pahren mahoeh toe, ka takhoe han toe.
Gomer became pregnant again and gave birth to a daughter. The Lord told Hosea, “Call her Lo-ruhamah, because I will no longer love the house of Israel and certainly not forgive them.
7 Hatei, Kai ni Judahnaw teh ka pahren han. Ahnimae BAWIPA Cathut Kai ni ka rungngang han. Ka rungngang nah taran tuknae senehmaica, lilava, pala, tahloi, marangnaw, hoi marangransanaw ka hno mahoeh a ti.
But I will have pity on the house of Judah, and I will save them—but I will not save them by bow or sword or war or horses and riders.”
8 Gomer ni a canu hah sanu a pâphei hnukkhu, camo bout a vawn teh, ca tongpa a khe.
After Gomer had weaned Lo-ruhamah she became pregnant again and gave birth to a son.
9 Cathut ni Hosi koe, a min teh Loammi phung loe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh teh, kaie tami nahoeh, kai hai nangmae Cathut nahoeh atipouh.
The Lord told Hosea, “Call him Lo-ammi, because you are not my people and I am not your God.
10 Isarelnaw teh palang sadi patetlah apung awh han. Bangnue thai hoeh e hoi touk thai hoeh e lah ao han. Atuvah, Cathut ni Isarelnaw teh ka tami nahoeh ati. Hatei, nangmouh teh kahring Cathut e canaw lah na o awh tie hnin ka phat han.
Even so the number of the people of Israel will be like the sand on the seashore that cannot be measured or counted. Then right there at the place where they were told ‘you are not my people’ they will be called ‘the children of the living God.’
11 Judahnaw hoi Isarelnaw ni bout a kamkhueng awh han. Amamouh hanlah siangpahrang buet touh a rawi awh vaiteh, hete ram dawk hoi a tâco awh han. Jezreel se teh a lentoe han telah a ti.
The people of Israel and the people of Judah will be gathered together and they will choose one leader for themselves and they will take possession of the land, and the day of Jezreel will be great.”
