Hosea 6
1 In their tribulation, they will arise early to me. Come, let us return to the Lord.
“Ẹ wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí a padà sọ́dọ̀ Olúwa ó ti fà wá ya pẹ́rẹpẹ̀rẹ ṣùgbọ́n yóò mú wa láradá Ó ti pa wá lára ṣùgbọ́n yóò dí ojú ọgbẹ́ wa.
2 For he has seized us, and he will heal us. He will strike, and he will cure us.
Lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ méjì, yóò sọ wá jí ní ọjọ́ kẹta yóò mú wa padà bọ̀ sípò kí a ba à le wá gbé níwájú rẹ̀.
3 He will revive us after two days; on the third day he will raise us up, and we will live in his sight. We will understand, and we will continue on, so that we may know the Lord. His landing place has been prepared like the first light of morning, and he will come to us like the early and the late rains of the land.
Ẹ jẹ́ kí a mọ Olúwa; ẹ jẹ́ kí a tẹ̀síwájú láti mọ̀ ọ́n. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí oòrùn ṣe ń yọ, yóò jáde; yóò tọ̀ wá wá bí òjò, bí òjò àkọ́rọ̀ ti ń bomirin ilẹ̀.”
4 What am I to do with you, Ephraim? What am I to do with you, Judah? Your mercy is like the morning mist, and like the dew passing away in the morning.
“Kí ni èmi ó ṣe pẹ̀lú rẹ, Efraimu? Kí ni èmi ó ṣe pẹ̀lú rẹ, Juda? Ìfẹ́ rẹ dàbí ìkùùkuu òwúrọ̀ bí ìrì ìdájí tí ó kọjá lọ kíákíá.
5 Because of this, I have cut them with the prophets, I have slain them with the words of my mouth; and your opinions will depart like the light.
Nítorí náà ni mo ṣe gé e yín sí wẹ́wẹ́ láti ọwọ́ àwọn wòlíì, Mo pa yín pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ ẹnu mi, ìdájọ́ mi tàn bí i mọ̀nàmọ́ná lórí yín.
6 For I desired mercy and not sacrifice, and knowledge of God more than holocausts.
Nítorí àánú ni mo fẹ́, kì í ṣe ẹbọ; àti ìmọ̀ Ọlọ́run ju ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun lọ.
7 But they, like Adam, have transgressed the covenant; in this, they have been dishonest with me.
Bí i Adamu, wọ́n da májẹ̀mú wọ́n jẹ́ aláìṣòótọ́ sí mi níbẹ̀.
8 Gilead is a city that manufactures idols; it has been tripped up by family relations.
Gileadi jẹ́ ìlú àwọn ènìyàn búburú tí ń ṣiṣẹ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀, a sí ti fi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ bà á jẹ́.
9 And, like those who rob with skillful words, they, by conspiring with the priests, bring a death sentence to travelers on a pilgrimage from Shechem; for they have been performing evil deeds.
Bí adigunjalè ṣe ń ba ní bùba de àwọn ènìyàn bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn àlùfáà, ń parapọ̀; tí wọ́n sì ń pànìyàn lójú ọ̀nà tó lọ sí Ṣekemu, tí wọ́n sì ń dá ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí ó ti ni lójú.
10 I have seen horrible things in the house of Israel; the fornications of Ephraim are there. Israel has been contaminated.
Mo ti rí ohun tó ba ni lẹ́rù ní ilé Israẹli. Níbẹ̀ Efraimu, fi ara rẹ̀ fún àgbèrè Israẹli sì di aláìmọ́.
11 But you, Judah, set a harvest for yourself, while I reverse the captivity of my people.
“Àti fún ìwọ, Juda, a ti yan ọjọ́ ìkórè rẹ. “Nígbà tí mo bá fẹ́ dá ohun ìní àwọn ènìyàn mi padà,
