Hosea 2
1 Say ye to your brothers, Ammi, and to your sisters, Ruhamah.
Na manuca rhoek te, 'Ka pilnam, na ngannu rhoek te 'Kan haidam 'ti nah.
2 Contend with your mother. Contend, for she is not my wife, nor am I her husband. And let her put away her whoredoms from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts,
Na nu te ho rhoe ho laeh. Anih te kai yuu pawt tih kai khaw a va moenih. A pumyoihnah te a mikhmuh lamloh, a samphainah a rhangsuk laklo lamkah khoe laeh saeh.
3 lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and kill her with thirst.
Anih te pumtling la ka hlik vetih a thang hnin kah bangla amah ka khueh tarha ve. Anih te khosoek bangla ka khueh vetih rhamrhae khohmuen la ka khueh phoeiah tuihalh neh ka duek sak ni.
4 Yea, I will have no mercy upon her sons, for they are sons of whoredom,
Amih pumyoi ca rhoek mai te, a ca rhoek te khaw ka haidam mahpawh.
5 for their mother has played the harlot. She who conceived them has done shamefully, for she said, I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.
A manu te cukhalh pai tih amih a yom te yak. Ka buh, ka tui, ka tumul, ka hlamik, ka situi neh ka tuiok aka pae ka lungnah hnukah ni ka caeh eh?,” a ti.
6 Therefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she shall not find her paths.
Te dongah kamah loh a longpuei te hling neh ka buk pah. A vongtung te ka biing pah vetih a hawn hmu voel mahpawh.
7 And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them. And she shall seek them, but shall not find them. Then she shall say, I will go and return to my first husband, for it was better with me then than now.
A lungnah rhoek te a hloem dae amih te kae mahpawh. Amih te a tlap akhaw hmu mahpawh. Te vaengah, “Ka cet vetih lamhma kah ka va taengah ka mael ni. Kai hamla tah then ngai mai coeng.
8 For she did not know that I gave her the grain, and the new wine, and the oil, and multiplied to her silver and gold, which they used for Baal.
Kai loh anih taengah cangpai, misur thai, situi khaw ka paek tih anih soah cak khaw ka kum sak dae sui te Baal hamla a khueh uh.
9 Therefore I will take back my grain in the time of it, and my new wine in the season of it, and will pluck away my wool and my flax which should have covered her nakedness.
Te dongah amah tue vaengah ka cangpai neh a khoning vaengkah ka misur thai te ka lat pah vetih ka loh pah ni. A yah a khuk nah ka tumul neh ka hlamik khaw ka lat ni.
10 And now I will uncover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and none shall deliver her out of my hand.
Te phoeiah a yah te a hlang ngaih mikhmuh ah ka poelyoe pah pawn vetih hlang loh anih te ka kut lamkah huul thai mahpawh.
11 I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feasts, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.
A omthennah, a khotue, a hlasae neh a Sabbath khaw, a tingtunnah boeih khaw boeih ka paa sak ni.
12 And I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees, of which she has said, These are my hire that my lovers have given me. And I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them.
A misur neh a thaibu khaw ka pong sak ni. “Te rhoek te kamah kah pumyoih phu la ka hlang ngaih rhoek loh kai taengah m'paek uh,” a ti. Te cakhaw te te duup la ka khueh vetih kohong mulhing loh a caak ni.
13 And I will visit upon her the days of the Baalim, to which she burned incense when she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, says Jehovah.
Amih taengah a phum bangla Baal kah khohnin khaw anih taengah ka cawh ni. A hnaii neh a hnaphaa a thawn tih a hlang ngaih hnukah cet dae kai, BOEIPA kah olphong te a hnilh.
14 Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak soothingly to her.
Te dongah kamah loh anih te ka hloih ni ne. Tedae amah te khosoek la pha sak phoeiah ni a lungbuei ah ka voek eh.
15 And I will give her her vineyards from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope. And she shall make answer there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
Te lamloh a misurdum te amah taengla ka paek vetih Akor kol te ngaiuepnah thohka la om ni. Te vaengah a camoe tue vaengkah bangla pahoi oei vetih Egypt kho lamloh a caeh hnin bangla om ni.
16 And it shall be at that day, says Jehovah, that thou shall call me Ishi, and shall no more call me Baali.
BOEIP A kah olphong te a khohnin neh a pha vaengah tah ka va la nan khue vetih kai taengah, “Kai kah Baal,” la na khue voel mahpawh.
17 For I will take away the names of the Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall no more be mentioned by their name.
Baal ming te a ka lamloh ka khoe pah vetih a ming te poek voel mahpawh.
18 And in that day I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the birds of the heavens, and with the creeping things of the ground. And I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the land, and will make them to lie down safely.
Te khohnin ah tah amih ham paipi te kohong mulhing neh, vaan kah vaa neh, diklai rhulcai neh ka saii pah ni. Diklai lamkah lii, cunghang neh caemtloek te ka bawt sak vetih amih te ngaikhuek la ka yalh sak ni.
19 And I will betroth thee to me forever. Yea, I will betroth thee to me in righteousness, and in justice, and in loving kindness, and in mercies.
Nang te kamah ham kumhal duela kam bae vetih duengnah neh, tiktamnah neh, sitlohnah neh, haidamnah neh nang te kamah hamla kam bae ni.
20 I will even betroth thee to me in faithfulness, and thou shall know Jehovah.
Nang te kamah hamla uepomnah neh kam bae van daengah ni BOEIPA te na ming eh.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, I will answer, says Jehovah. I will answer the heavens, and they shall answer the earth,
Te khohnin te a pha vaengah BOEIPA kah olphong te ka doo vetih vaan te khaw ka doo ni. Amih long khaw diklai te a doo uh ni.
22 and the earth shall answer the grain, and the new wine, and the oil, and they shall answer Jezreel.
Diklai long khaw cangpai misur thai neh situi te a doo vetih amih loh Jezreel te a doo ni.
23 And I will sow her to me in the earth. And I will have mercy upon her who had not obtained mercy. And I will say to those who were not my people, Thou are my people, and they shall say, My God.
Anih te kamah hamlalohma ah ka soem vetih a haidam pawt te ka haidam ni. Nang Laomi te ka pilnam ka ti vetih anih long khaw ka Pathen a ti ni.
