Hosea 14
1 O Israel, returne vnto the Lord thy God: for thou hast fallen by thine iniquitie.
Tounen vin jwenn Bondye nou non, nou menm pitit Izrayèl yo! Se peche nou yo ki te fè nou tonbe.
2 Take vnto you words, and turne to the Lord, and say vnto him, Take away all iniquitie, and receiue vs graciously: so wil we render the calues of our lippes.
Tounen vin jwenn Seyè a! Men sa pou nou di li: Padonnen tout peche nou yo. Asepte sa n'ap mande ou la a. Nou p'ap ofri ou towo bèf ankò, n'ap fè lwanj ou pito.
3 Asshur shall not saue vs, neither wil we ride vpon horses, neither will we say any more to the worke of our handes, Ye are our gods: for in thee the fatherlesse findeth mercie.
Moun Lasiri yo p'ap janm ka sove nou. Nou p'ap mete konfyans nou ankò nan chwal pou fè lagè. Nou p'ap janm gade zidòl nou fè ak men nou pou nou di yo se yo ki bondye nou. Nou rekonèt, Seyè, se ou menm ki gen pitye pou timoun ki san papa.
4 I wil heale their rebellion: I wil loue them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.
Seyè a di ankò: -M'ap rale pèp la tounen vin jwenn mwen ankò. M'ap renmen yo ak tout kè m'. Mwen p'ap ankòlè sou yo ankò.
5 I will be as the dewe vnto Israel: he shall grow as the lilie and fasten his rootes, as the trees of Lebanon.
M'ap tankou lawouze pou moun Izrayèl yo. Yo pral fleri tankou flè nan jaden. Yo pral pouse rasin tankou pyebwa nan peyi Liban.
6 His branches shall spread, and his beautie shalbe as the oliue tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
Yo pral boujonnen sou tout kò yo. Y'ap bèl tankou pye oliv. Y'ap santi bon tankou pye sèd peyi Liban.
7 They that dwel vnder his shadow, shall returne: they shall reuiue as the corne, and florish as the vine: the sent thereof shalbe as the wine of Lebanon.
Yo gen pou yo tounen vin rete anba zèl mwen pou m' pwoteje yo. Jaden ble yo pral donnen ankò. Yo pral fleri tankou pye rezen. Non yo ap nan tout bouch tankou bon mak diven yo fè nan peyi Liban.
8 Ephraim shall say, What haue I to doe any more with idoles? I haue heard him, and looked vpon him: I am like a greene firre tree: vpon me is thy fruite founde.
Nou menm moun Izrayèl, konnen mwen pa gen anyen pou mwen wè ak zidòl. Mwen menm m'a reponn yo lè y'ap lapriyè. M'ap okipe yo tankou pye bwapen ki rete toujou vèt, m'ap ba yo lonbraj. Se mwen menm k'ap ba yo tout kalite benediksyon.
9 Who is wise, and he shall vnderstande these things? and prudent, and he shall knowe them? for the wayes of the Lord are righteous, and the iust shall walke in them: but the wicked shall fall therein.
Se pou moun ki gen konprann chache konprann sa ki ekri la a. Se pou moun ki gen lespri chache konprann li. Paske chemen Bondye se chemen ki dwat. Moun k'ap viv dapre volonte Bondye ap mache ladan l' san anyen p'ap rive yo. Men, moun ki vire do yo bay Bondye ap bite sou wout la.
