Hosea 3

1 Then the LORD said to me, “Go show love to your wife again, though she is loved by another and is an adulteress. Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and offer raisin cakes to idols.”

Le hoe t’Iehovà amako; Akia irehe: Ikokò ty rakemba ikokoan-tsakeza’e, ie toe karapilo, manahake ty fikokoa’ Iehovà o ana’ Israeleo, ie mitolik’ aman-drahare ila’e vaho mpitea mofom-balòboke.

2 So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and a homer and a lethech of barley.

Aa le viniliko ho ahiko re ami’ty volafoty folo-lim’amby naho ampemba omere raike naho tampa’e;

3 Then I said to her, “You must live with me for many days; you must not be promiscuous or belong to another, and I will do the same for you.”

le hoe iraho ama’e, Himoneñe amako andro maro irehe; fa tsy hihisa ankarapiloañe ka, naho tsy hiharo amy t’indaty ila’e; le hoe izay ka izaho ama’o.

4 For the Israelites must live many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, and without ephod or idol.

Amy te himoneñe andro maro tsy amam-panjàka tsy aman-Talè, tsy aman-tsòroñe, tsy aman-tsamposampo, tsy aman’efode vaho tsy aman-terafeme o nte-Israeleo.

5 Afterward, the people of Israel will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king. They will come trembling to the LORD and to His goodness in the last days.

Ie modo izay, le himpoly o ana’ Israeleo, hipay Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo, naho i Davide mpanjaka’ iareo; vaho hañeveñe am’ Iehovà naho i fatariha’ey amo andro sehanga’eo.
