< Hosea 2 >
1 Say vnto your brethren, Ammi, and to your sisters, Ruhamah,
“Ke ke pehē ki ho ngaahi tokoua, ‘Ko ʻAmi,’ pea ki ho ngaahi tuofefine, ‘ko Luhama.’
2 Plead with your mother: plead with her: for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband: but let her take away her fornications out of her sight, and her adulteries from betweene her breasts.
Kole ki hoʻo faʻē, kole, he ʻoku ʻikai ko hoku uaifi ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ko hono husepāniti au: pea koeʻuhi ko ia, tuku ke ne ʻave ʻene feʻauaki mei hono ʻao, pea mo ʻene tono tangata mei he vahaʻa ʻo hono huhu;
3 Lest I strippe her naked, and set her as in the day that shee was borne, and make her as a wildernes, and leaue her like a drie land, and slaie her for thirst.
Telia naʻaku fakatelefua ia, pea tuku ia ke hangē ko e ʻaho ʻo hono fanauʻi, pea ngaohi ia ke hangē ko e toafa, pea tuku ia ke tatau mo e fonua mōmoa, pea tāmateʻi ia ʻi he fieinu.
4 And I wil haue no pitie vpon her children: for they be the children of fornications.
Pea ʻe ʻikai te u ʻaloʻofa ki heʻene fānau; he ko e fānau ʻae feʻauaki ʻakinautolu.
5 For their mother hath plaied the harlot: she that conceiued them, hath done shamefully: for shee said, I will goe after my louers that giue me my bread and my water, my wooll and my flaxe, mine oyle and my drinke.
He kuo fai ʻe heʻenau faʻē ʻae feʻauaki: pea ko ia ia naʻe tuituʻia ʻakinautolu kuo ne fai fakalielia: he naʻa ne pehē, ‘Te u ʻalu atu ki heʻeku kau mamana, ʻaia ʻoku foaki mai ʻeku mā mo ʻeku vai, ʻa ʻeku fulufuluʻi sipi mo ʻeku filo, ʻa ʻeku lolo mo ʻeku inu.’
6 Therefore beholde, I will stoope thy way with thornes, and make an hedge, that shee shall not finde her pathes.
Ko ia, vakai, te u feleʻi hono hala ʻaki ʻae ʻakau talatala, pea ngaohi ha ʻā, ke ʻoua naʻa ne ʻilo hono ngaahi hala.
7 Though shee follow after her louers, yet shall shee not come at them: though shee seeke them, yet shall shee not finde them: then shall she say, I will goe and returne to my first husband: for at that time was I better then nowe.
Pea te ne muimui ki heʻene kau mamana, ka ʻe ʻikai te ne maʻu ʻakinautolu; te ne kumi ʻakinautolu ka ʻe ʻikai ʻilo: pea te ne toki pehē, ‘Te u ʻalu, pea tafoki ki hoku ʻuluaki husepāniti; he naʻe lelei lahi ai ia kiate au.’
8 Nowe she did not knowe that I gaue her corne, and wine, and oyle, and multiplied her siluer and golde, which they bestowed vpon Baal.
He naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo naʻaku foaki kiate ia ʻae koane, mo e uaine, mo e lolo, pea ne u fakalahi kiate ia ʻae siliva, mo e koula, naʻa nau teu maʻa Peali.
9 Therefore wil I returne, and take away my corne in the time thereof, and my wine in the season thereof, and will recouer my wool and my flaxe lent, to couer her shame.
Ko ia te u tafoki, pea ʻave ʻeku koane hono kuonga, pea mo ʻeku uaine ʻi hono faʻahitaʻu, pea te u toe maʻu ʻeku fulufuluʻi sipi mo ʻeku filo naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻene telefua.
10 And now will I discouer her lewdnes in the sight of her louers, and no man shall deliuer her out of mine hand.
Pea te u fakahā ni ʻa ʻene ʻuli ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻene kau mamana, pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha te ne fakahaofi ia mei hoku nima.
11 I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast daies, her newe moones, and her Sabbathes, and all her solemne feasts.
Pea te u fakangata ʻene fiefia, mo hono ngaahi ʻaho kātoanga, mo hono ngaahi māhina foʻou, mo hono ngaahi ʻaho tapu, pea mo ʻene ngaahi kātoanga mamafa kotoa pē.
12 And I wil destroy her vines and her figtrees, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards that my louers haue giuen mee: and I will make them as a forest, and the wilde beasts shall eate them.
Pea te u fakaʻauha ʻene ngaahi vaine, pea mo ʻene ngaahi ʻakau ko e fiki, ʻaia naʻa ne pehē ai, ‘Ko eni ʻae totongi naʻe foaki mai ʻe heʻeku kau mamana: pea te u ngaohi ia ko e vao ʻakau,’ pea ʻe kai ia ʻe he fanga manu ʻoe vao.
13 And I wil visit vpon her the daies of Baalim, wherein shee burnt incense to them: and shee decked her selfe with her earings and her iewels, and shee folowed her louers, and forgate me, saith the Lord.
Pea te u totongi kiate ia ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Pealimi, ʻaia naʻa ne tutu ai kiate kinautolu ʻae ʻakau namu lelei, pea ne teuteu ʻaki ʻe ia ʻae mama ʻi hono telinga mo ʻene ngaahi teunga, pea ne ʻalu atu ki heʻene kau mamana, ʻo ne fakangaloʻi au,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
14 Therefore beholde, I will allure her, and bring her into the wildernesse, and speake friendly vnto her.
“Ko ia, vakai, te u tauheleʻi ia, pea ʻomi ia ki he toafa, pea lea fakafiemālie kiate ia.
15 And I will giue her her vineyardes from thence, and the valley of Achor for the doore of hope, and shee shall sing there as in the daies of her youth, and as in the daies when shee came vp out of the land of Egypt.
Pea te u foaki kiate ia ʻa ʻene ngoue vaine mei ai, pea mo e teleʻa ʻo ʻAkoli ko e matapā ʻoe ʻamanaki lelei; pea te ne hiva ʻi ai, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻene kei siʻi, pea hangē ko e ʻaho naʻa ne ʻalu hake ai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
16 And at that day, sayeth the Lord, thou shalt call me Ishi, and shalt call me no more Baali.
“Pea ʻe hoko ʻi he ʻaho ko ia,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Te ke ui au ‘Ko ʻIsi’ ka ʻe ʻikai toe ui au, ‘Ko Peali.’
17 For I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall be no more remembred by their names.
He te u toʻo mei hono ngutu ʻae ngaahi hingoa ʻo Pealimi, pea ʻe ʻikai toe manatuʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi honau hingoa.
18 And in that day wil I make a couenant for them, with the wilde beasts, and with the foules of the heauen, and with that that creepeth vpon the earth: and I will breake the bowe, and the sworde and the battell out of the earth, and will make them to sleepe safely.
Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia te u fai ʻae fuakava ki he fanga manu ʻoe ngoue maʻanautolu, pea ki he fanga manupuna ʻoe ʻatā, pea ki he fanga manu totolo ʻoe kelekele, pea te u fesiʻi ʻae kaufana mo e heletā mo e tau mei he fonua, pea te u pule ke nau tokoto hifo ʻi he fiemālie.
19 And I wil marry thee vnto me for euer: yea, I will marry thee vnto me in righteousnes, and in iudgement, and in mercy and in compassion.
Pea te u fakamaʻu koe kiate au ʻo lauikuonga; ʻio, te u fakamaʻu koe kiate au ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, pea mo e angatonu, pea ʻi he angaʻofa, pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaloʻofa.
20 I will euen marry thee vnto me in faithfulnes, and thou shalt knowe the Lord.
Te u fakamaʻu koe kiate au ʻi he moʻoni: pea te ke ʻilo ʻa Sihova.
21 And in that day I wil heare, saith the Lord, I will euen heare the heauens, and they shall heare the earth,
Pea ʻe hoko ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, te u fanongo,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Te u fanongo, ki he ngaahi langi, pea te nau fakafanongo ki māmani:
22 And the earth shall heare the corne, and the wine, and the oyle, and they shall heare Izreel.
Pea ʻe fanongo ʻae māmani ki he koane, pea mo e uaine, pea mo e lolo, pea te nau fanongo kia Sesilili.
23 And I will sowe her vnto me in the earth, and I will haue mercie vpon her, that was not pitied, and I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people. And they shall say, Thou art my God.
Pea te u tūtuuʻi ia kiate au ʻi he fonua; pea te u ʻaloʻofa kiate ia naʻe ʻikai ke maʻu ha ʻaloʻofa; pea te u pehē kiate kinautolu naʻe ʻikai ko hoku kakai, ‘Ko hoku kakai’ ʻakimoutolu, pea te nau pehē, ‘Ko homau ʻOtua koe.’”
