Hosea 2
1 “Say to your brothers, ‘You are my people,’ and to your sister, ‘You have obtained mercy.’
“Luonguru oweteu ni ‘Joga,’ kendo luonguru nyimineu ni ‘Joma ahero.’”
2 Judge your mother, judge: for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband. Let her remove her fornications from before her face and her adulteries from between her breasts.
“Kwer minu, kwere, nikech ok en jaoda, kendo ok an chwore. Onego owe wangʼ maneno mar chode kendo gi yorene mag dwanyruok.
3 Otherwise, I may expose her nakedness and set her as on the day of her birth, and I may establish her as a wilderness and set her as an impassable land, and I may execute her with thirst.
Ka ok kamano to abiro lonye duk modongʼ kaka ne onywole; anakete ochal kaka lop ongoro, analoke kaka lowo motwo mobaro okak, kendo ananege kod riyo mar pi.
4 And I will not have mercy on her sons, for they are the sons of fornications.
Ok anaher nyithinde, nikech gin nyithindo mane oyud e yor chode.
5 For their mother has been fornicating; she who conceived them has been brought to ruin. 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.’
Min-gi ok osebedo ja-ratiro kendo osemako ich gi anjawo. Owacho ni, ‘Abiro luwo bangʼ joherana, mamiya chiemba kod piga, yie rombe gi pamba michweyogo lewni, mo kod math.’
6 Because of this, behold, I will fence in your way with thorns, and I will surround it with a wall, and she will not find her paths.
Omiyo anagengʼ yore kod bungu maduongʼ mar kudho; abiro dinone chuth ma ok noyud yo mowuok godo oko.
7 And she will pursue her lovers, but she will not obtain them, and she will seek them, but she will not find them, and she will say, ‘I will go and return to my first husband, because it was to some extent better for me then, than it is now.’
Enolaw bangʼ jochodenego to ok nomakgi; enomanygi to ok noyudgi. Bangʼe to enowachi niya, Abiro dokne chwora mokwongo, nimar ndalono ne awinjo maber moloyo sani.
8 And she did not know that I gave her grain and wine and oil, and that I increased her silver and gold, which they made into Baal.
Ok osengʼeyo adier ni an ema ne amiye cham, divai manyien kod mo, an bende ema ne adhiale gi fedha gi dhahabu mangʼenygo mane gitiyo nego Baal.
9 For this reason, I will turn back, and I will take away my grain in its time and my wine in its time, and I will set free my wool and my flax, which had covered her disgrace.
“Kuom mano abiro kawo chamba ka osechiek, gi divaina manyien ka oseikore. Bende anakaw yie rombona gi pambana mitwangʼo godo lewni mane onego oum-go duge.
10 And now, I will reveal her foolishness by the eyes of her lovers, and no man will rescue her from my hand.
Koro abiro nyiso ayanga gombo mare mar chode e lela e nyim joherane; kendo onge ngʼama nogole e lweta.
11 And I will cause all her joy to cease: her solemnities, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her feast dates.
Nyasi duto ma en-go anakethi: nyasi mar higa ka higa, mar dwe ka dwe, mar Sabato kod nyasi motimo juma ka juma.
12 And I will corrupt her vines and her fig trees, about which she said, ‘These rewards, they are mine, my lovers have given them to me.’ And I will place her in a narrow forest, and the beasts of the field will devour her.
Anaketh yiendene mag mzabibu gi yiend ngʼopene mane owacho ni ne chudone moa kuom joherane. Abiro ketogi bunge, kendo le mag bungu nokethgi.”
13 And I will inflict on her the days of the Baals, for whom she burned incense, and ornamented herself with earrings and necklace, and went after her lovers, and forgot about me,” says the Lord.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Anakume kuom ndalo duto mane owangʼo ubani ne Baal; korwakore gi gik mabeyo ahinya kolombogo joherane, to an ne wiye owil koda.
14 “Because of this, behold, I will attract her, and I will lead her into the wilderness, and I will speak to her heart.
“Kuom mano abiro hoye, mi adhi kode e piny motimo ongoro, kendo abiro wuoyo kode gi muolo.
15 And I will give to her, from the same place, her vinedressers, and the valley of Achor as a passage of hope. And she will sing there as in the days of her youth, and as in the days of her ascension from the land of Egypt.
Kanyo abiro dwokone puothe mar mzabibu, Kendo analos holo mar Akor obed dhood geno. Kanyo nowerie mana kaka nower kapod otin, mana ka chiengʼ mane owuok koa Misri.”
16 And it will be in that day,” says the Lord, “that she will call me, ‘My Husband,’ and she will no longer call me, ‘My Baal.’
Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “Odiechiengʼno iniluonga ni ‘chwora,’ to ok inichak iluonga ni ‘jatenda.’
17 And I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, and she will no longer remember their name.
Abiro golo nyinge mag Baal oa e dhoge. Nying Baal ok nochak owuo kuomgi kendo.
18 And in that day, I will strike a deal with them, with the beasts of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the creatures of the earth. And I will crush the bow and the sword, and I will wipe away war from the earth. And I will let them sleep securely.
Chiengʼno anaketnegi singruok e kindgi gi le mag thim gi winy manie kor polo, gi chwech mamol e lowo, atungʼ gi ligangla to abiro turo, kendo lweny bende anatiek e piny, mondo gik moko duto obed gi kwe.
19 And I will betroth you to me forever, and I will betroth you to me in justice and judgment, and in mercy and compassion.
Abiro timo kodi singruok mar kend mondo ibed mara chuth; abiro timo kodi singruok mar kend e yo maler kendo maratiro, gihera kod kech.
20 And I will wed you to me in faith, and you will know that I am the Lord.
Abiro timo kodi singruok mar kend e yo mar adiera, kendo ibiro yie kuom Jehova Nyasaye.”
21 And this will happen in that day: I will listen closely,” says the Lord. “I will hear the heavens, and they will hear the earth.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “E odiechiengno abiro dwoko kwayou ma boche polo, nochiw koth ne piny,
22 And the land will pay attention to the grain, and the wine, and the oil; and these will hear Jezreel.
kendo cham biro nyak e piny, kaachiel gi divai manyien kod mo zeituni, mi giduto ginyag Jezreel.
23 And I will plant her for me in the land, and I will have mercy on her, though she had been called Without Mercy. And I will say to Not My People, ‘You are my people,’ and they will say, ‘You are my God.’”
Abiro pidhe e piny ne an awuon; abiro nyiso herana ni ngʼat mane aluongo ni ‘Ok jaherana.’ Anawach ni joma iluongo ni, ‘Joma ok joga,’ ni, ‘Un joga’; kendo ginidwoka ni, ‘In Nyasachwa.’”
