Hosea 14
1 O Israel, return unto Jehovah thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.
Ry Israele, mimpolia mb’am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o; fa nampihotrake azo o hakeo’oo.
2 Take with you words, and turn to Jehovah; say unto him, Forgive all iniquity, and receive [us] graciously; so will we render the calves of our lips.
Andeso saontsy, le mibaliha mb’am’Iehovà: ano ty hoe: Fonga afaho o hakeoo, rambeso an-kasoa, vaho hengae’ay ty banian-tsoñi’ay.
3 Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, [Thou art] our God; because in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.
Tsy haharombak’ anay t’i Asore; izahay tsy hiningitse an-tsoavala, le tsy hanao ty hoe amo sata-pità’aio: Ry ndrahare’ay. Fa ama’o ty hahaoniña’ ty bode-rae fiferenaiñañe.
4 I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely; for mine anger is turned away from him.
Ho jangañeko ty fidisa-voli’ iareo; hikokoako an-tsatrin-tro, fa mitolike ty habosehako.
5 I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall blossom as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.
Hanahake ty zono am’ Israele iraho; ie hidorenake hoe antake mandriake, vaho hirifondrifoñe hoe Libanone.
6 His shoots shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive-tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
Handrevake o ra’eo, naho hanahake ty andramahe ty enge’e, vaho hoe Libanone ty harifondrifo’e.
7 They shall return and sit under his shadow; they shall revive [as] corn, and blossom as the vine: the renown thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon.
Himpoly iaby o mialok’ ama’eo; ho tolorañ’ aiñe manahake i ampembay, le hiraorao hoe vahe, vaho handrifondrifoñe hoe ty hamañiran-divai’ i Libanone.
8 Ephraim [shall say], What have I to do any more with idols? (I answer [him], and I will observe him.) I am like a green fir-tree. — From me is thy fruit found.
Le hanao ty hoe t’i Efraime: Hanoeko inoñe ka o samposampoo? Fa nitsanoñeko naho nijiloveko, Manahake ty kile maindoñe ama’o iraho, amako ty aharendreha’o voa.
9 Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? intelligent, and he shall know them? For the ways of Jehovah are right, and the just shall walk in them; but the transgressors shall fall therein.
Ee te hahafohiñe o raha zao ty mahihitse, naho haharendreke o mahilalao. Amy te vantañe o lala’ Iehovào, ie orihe’ o vañoñeo, fe itsikapia’ o miolao.
