Hosea 14
1 Return, Israel, to the Lord your God, because your sins have brought you down.
Mwet Israel, foloko nu yurin LEUM GOD lowos. Ma koluk lowos oru kowos in tukulkul ac ikori.
2 Take words like these with you and come back to the Lord, saying to him, “Please take away all our guilt, accept what is good, and we will repay you with praise from our lips.
Foloko nu yurin LEUM GOD, ac oru tuh pre se inge in mwe kisa lowos nu sel: “Sisla ma koluk lasr ac porongo pre lasr, ac kut fah kaksakin kom oana ke kut tuh wulela nu sum kac.
3 Assyria can't save us; we will not ride our warhorses; we will never again say ‘You are our gods’ to the idols we have made. For in you orphans find mercy.”
Tuh Assyria tia ku in molikutla, ac horse in mweun tia pac ku in loangekut. Kut fah tiana sifilpa fahk nu ke ma sruloala lasr mu elos god lasr. O LEUM GOD, kom fahkak pakoten nu sin mwet mukaimtal!”
4 I will heal their unfaithfulness; I will love them freely, for I'm not angry with them any more.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah folokonma mwet luk nu yuruk. Nga fah lungse elos ke insiuk nufon; Nga tia sifilpa mulat selos.
5 I will be like the dew to Israel, they will blossom like lilies, they will send down roots like the cedars of Lebanon.
Nga fah oana af yen pao Nu sin mwet Israel. Elos ac farengelik oana ros; Elos ac okahla arulana ku, Oana sak in acn Lebanon.
6 They shall send out new shoots, their splendor will be like the olive tree, their scent will be like the cedars of Lebanon.
Elos fah moulyak ke srun sasu Ac kato oana sak olive. Elos ac fah fo loslos Oana sak cedar in acn Lebanon.
7 Those who live under their shade shall return, they will flourish like grain, they will blossom like the vine, and they will be as famous as the wine of Lebanon.
Elos ac sifilpa muta ye karinginyuk luk. Elos fah taknelik fiten wheat, Ac fahko kac ac fah pus oana ima in grape. Elos ac fah pwengpeng oana wain in acn Lebanon.
8 Ephraim, how much more do I have to warn you about idols? I have answered and now I am watching. I am like a tree that is evergreen; your fruit is found in me.
Mwet Israel ac fah tia sifil alu nu ke ma sruloala. Nga ac fah topuk pre lalos ac karinganulos. Nga fah sonolosi oana soko sak folfol insroa, Mwe insewowo lalos nukewa fah tuku yuruk me.”
9 Who is wise to understand these things? Who has discernment in understanding them? The Lord's paths are right—the good follow them, but rebels trip and fall along the way.
Lela elos su lalmwetmet in kalem ke ma simla inge, ac in filiya in oan insialos. Inkanek lun LEUM GOD suwohs, ac mwet suwoswos elos moul ke sripen elos fahsr kac, a mwet orekma koluk elos tukulkul ac ikori mweyen elos tia fahsr kac.
