< Hosea 1 >
1 The word of the Lord, that came to Osee the son of Beeri, in the days of Ozias, Joathan, Achaz, and Ezechias kings of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel.
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó tọ Hosea ọmọ Beeri wá ní àkókò ìjọba Ussiah, Jotamu, Ahasi àti Hesekiah; àwọn ọba Juda àti ní àkókò ọba Jeroboamu ọmọ Jehoaṣi ní Israẹli.
2 The beginning of the Lord’s speaking by Osse: and the Lord said to Osee: Go, take thee a wife of fornications, and have of her children of fornications: for the land by fornication shall depart from the Lord.
Nígbà tí Olúwa bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní sọ̀rọ̀ láti ẹnu Hosea, Olúwa wí fún un pé, “Lọ, fẹ́ àgbèrè obìnrin kan fún ara rẹ, kí ó sì bí ọmọ àgbèrè fún ọ nípasẹ̀ àwọn ọkùnrin mìíràn, nítorí ilẹ̀ ti ṣẹ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àgbèrè púpọ̀ nípa yíyapa kúrò lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa.”
3 So he went, and took Gomer the daughter of Debelaim: and she conceived and bore him a son.
Nígbà náà ni ó sì lọ, ó sì fẹ́ Gomeri ọmọbìnrin Diblaimu, ọmọbìnrin náà sì lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan fún un.
4 And the Lord said to him: Call his name Jezrahel: for yet a little while, and I will visit the blood of Jezrahel upon the house of Jehu, and I will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.
Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Hosea pé, “Pe orúkọ ọmọ náà ní Jesreeli, nítorí pé láìpẹ́ ni èmi yóò jẹ ìdílé Jehu ní ìyà fún ẹ̀jẹ̀ àwọn ènìyàn tó pa ní ìpakúpa ní Jesreeli, Èmi yóò sì mú ìjọba Israẹli wá sí òpin.
5 And in that day I will break in pieces the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezrahel.
Ní ọjọ́ náà ni Èmi yóò ṣẹ́ ọrun Israẹli ní àfonífojì Jesreeli.”
6 And she conceived again, and bore a daughter, and he said to him: Call her name, Without mercy: for I will not add any more to have mercy on the house of Israel, but I will utterly forget them.
Gomeri sì tún lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọbìnrin kan. Olúwa sọ fún un pé, “Pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Lo-ruhama, nítorí pé, Èmi kò ní ṣàánú fún ilé Israẹli mọ́, Èmi kò sì ní dáríjì wọ́n.
7 And I will have mercy on the house of Juda, and I will save them by the Lord their God: and I will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, nor by horses, nor by horsemen.
Síbẹ̀, èmi yóò ṣàánú fún ilé Juda, èmi ó gbà wọ́n—kì í ṣe nípa ọfà, idà tàbí ogun, ẹṣin tàbí kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹlẹ́ṣin bí kò ṣe nípa Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn.”
8 And she weaned her that was called Without mercy. And she conceived, and bore a son.
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó gba ọmú lẹ́nu Lo-ruhama, ó sì lóyún ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin mìíràn. Nígbà náà ni
9 And he said: Call his name, Not my people: for you are not my people, and I will not be yours.
Olúwa sì sọ fún un pé, “Pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Lo-Ammi, nítorí pé ẹ kì í ṣe ènìyàn mi, èmi náà kì í sì í ṣe Ọlọ́run yín.
10 And the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, that is without measure, and shall not be numbered. And it shall be in the place where it shall be said to them: You are not my people: it shall be said to them: Ye are the sons of the living God.
“Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yóò pọ̀ bí i iyanrìn etí Òkun tí a kò le wọ́n, tí a kò sì le è kà, yóò sì ṣe. Ní ibi tí wọ́n ti sọ fún wọn pé. ‘Ẹ̀yin kì í ṣe ènìyàn mi,’ níbẹ̀ ni a ó ti máa pè wọ́n ní ‘Ọmọ Ọlọ́run alààyè.’
11 And the children of Juda, and the children of Israel shall be gathered together: and they shall appoint themselves one head, and shall come up out of the land: for great is the day of Jezrahel.
Àwọn ènìyàn Juda àti àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli yóò parapọ̀, wọn yóò sì yan olórí kan tí yóò jáde láti ilẹ̀ náà, nítorí pé ọjọ́ ńlá ni ọjọ́ Jesreeli yóò jẹ́.
