Hosea 6
1 In their affliction they will rise early to me: Come, and let us return to the Lord:
Andeha hiverina ho amin’ i Jehovah isika; Fa Izy no namiravira, ary Izy ihany no hahasitrana antsika; Izy no namely, ary Izy no hamehy ny ferintsika.
2 For he hath taken us, and he will heal us: he will strike, and he will cure us.
Rehefa afaka indroa andro, dia hovelominy indray isika; Ary amin’ ny andro fahatelo, dia hatsangany ho velona eo anatrehany isika
3 He will revive us after two days: on the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight. We shall know, and we shall follow on, that we may know the Lord. His going forth is prepared as the morning light, and he will come to us as the early and the latter rain to the earth.
Dia aoka hahalala, eny, aoka hiezaka hahalala an’ i Jehovah isika; Mahatoky toy ny maraina ny fiposahany, dia ho avy amintsika toy ny ranonorana mivatravatra Izy, sy toy ny fara orana izay mahavonto ny tany.
4 What shall I do to thee, O Ephraim? what shall I do to thee, O Juda? your mercy is as a morning cloud, and as the dew that goeth away in the morning.
Inona re no ho azoko atao aminao, ry Efraima? Inona re no ho azoko atao aminao, ry Joda? Fa toy ny rahona maraina ny fitiavanareo sy tahaka ny ando izay levona, raha vao maraina ny andro.
5 For this reason have I hewed them by the prophets, I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments shall go forth as the light.
Ary noho izany ny mpaminany no nentiko nikapa azy, ny tenin’ ny vavako no nentiko namono azy; Ary ny fitsarana anao dia hiposaka toy ny mazava.
6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice: and the knowledge of God more than holocausts.
Fa famindram-po no sitrako, fa tsy fanatitra alatsa-drà, ary fahalalana an’ Andriamanitra noho ny fanatitra dorana.
7 But they, like Adam, have transgressed the covenant, there have they dealt treacherously against me.
Fa ireny dia nivadika ny fanekena tahaka an’ i Adama, tao no nivadihany nahafoizany Ahy.
8 Galaad is a city of workers of idols, supplanted with blood.
Gileada dia tanànan’ ny mpanao ratsy sady voaloton’ ny rà.
9 And like the jaws of highway robbers, they conspire with the priests who murder in the way those that pass out Sichem: for they have wrought wickedness.
Ary toy ny fanotriky ny jiolahy no fikamban’ ny mpisorona: Mamono eny an-dalambe mankany Sekema izy, eny, efa nanao fahavetavetana koa izy.
10 I have seen a horrible thing in the house of Israel: the fornications of Ephraim there: Israel is defiled.
Tao amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely no nahitako zavatra mahatsiravina: ao ny fijangajangan’ i Efraima, voaloto Isiraely.
11 And thou also, O Juda, set thee a harvest, when I shall bring back captivity of my people.
Ny aminao, ry Joda, dia voatendry koa ny andro hijinjana anao, rehefa ampodiko avy amin’ ny fahababoana ny oloko.
