Hosea 3

1 Then said the Lord to me, Goe yet, and loue a woman (beloued of her husband, and was an harlot) according to the loue of the Lord toward the children of Israel: yet they looked to other gods, and loued the wine bottels.

Le hoe t’Iehovà amako; Akia irehe: Ikokò ty rakemba ikokoan-tsakeza’e, ie toe karapilo, manahake ty fikokoa’ Iehovà o ana’ Israeleo, ie mitolik’ aman-drahare ila’e vaho mpitea mofom-balòboke.

2 So I bought her to me for fifteene pieces of siluer, and for an homer of barlie and an halfe homer of barlie.

Aa le viniliko ho ahiko re ami’ty volafoty folo-lim’amby naho ampemba omere raike naho tampa’e;

3 And I said vnto her, Thou shalt abide with me many dayes: thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt be to none other man, and I will be so vnto thee.

le hoe iraho ama’e, Himoneñe amako andro maro irehe; fa tsy hihisa ankarapiloañe ka, naho tsy hiharo amy t’indaty ila’e; le hoe izay ka izaho ama’o.

4 For the children of Israel shall remaine many dayes without a King and without a prince, and without an offering, and without an image, and without an Ephod and without Teraphim.

Amy te himoneñe andro maro tsy amam-panjàka tsy aman-Talè, tsy aman-tsòroñe, tsy aman-tsamposampo, tsy aman’efode vaho tsy aman-terafeme o nte-Israeleo.

5 Afterward shall the children of Israel conuert, and seeke the Lord their God, and Dauid their King, and shall feare the Lord, and his goodnes in the latter dayes.

Ie modo izay, le himpoly o ana’ Israeleo, hipay Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo, naho i Davide mpanjaka’ iareo; vaho hañeveñe am’ Iehovà naho i fatariha’ey amo andro sehanga’eo.
