< Hosea 1 >

1 THE WORD of the LORD that came unto Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.
Niheo amy Hosea ana’ i Bierý ty tsara’ Iehovà faha’ i Ozià naho Iotame naho i Akhaze naho Khizkiia mpanjaka Iehodà, vaho Iarobàme ana’ Ioàse, mpanjaka’ Israele.
2 When the LORD spoke at first with Hosea, the LORD said unto Hosea: 'Go, take unto thee a wife of harlotry and children of harlotry; for the land doth commit great harlotry, departing from the LORD.'
Ie namotsotse nitsara amy Hosea t’Iehovà, le hoe t’Iehovà amy Hosea, Akia mañengà karapilo ho vali’o, ty anak’ ampela boak’ an-kàrapiloañe ao; fa toe mpanao hakarapiloan-kalalijake naho miamboho am’ Iehovà o taneo.
3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; and she conceived, and bore him a son.
Aa le nimb’eo re nañenga i Gomere, ana’ i Diblaime, le niaren-dre vaho nisamaha’e anadahy.
4 And the LORD said unto him: 'Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will visit the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.
Le hoe t’Iehovà ama’e, Toñono ty hoe Iezreèle ty añara’e; fa tsy ho ela te havaleko ami’ty anjomba’ Iehò ty lio’ Iezreèle, vaho hagàdoko ty fifehean’ anjomba’ Israele.
5 And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.'
Ie amy andro zay, ho pozaheko ty fale’ Israele am-bavatane’ Iezreèle ao.
6 And she conceived again, and bore a daughter. And He said unto him: 'Call her name Lo-ruhamah; for I will no more have compassion upon the house of Israel, that I should in any wise pardon them.
Niareñe indraike re nahatoly anak’ ampela, le hoe re tama’e, Toñono ty hoe Lorokamà ty añara’e: fa tsy ho ferenaiñako ka ty anjomba’ Israele, toe tsy iheveako.
7 But I will have compassion upon the house of Judah, and will save them by the LORD their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, nor by horses, nor by horsemen.'
Fe ho tretrezeko ty anjomba’ Iehodà le ho rombaheko añam’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareoy, fa tsy ho rombaheko am-pale ndra fibara ndra hotakotake ndra soavala ndra mpiningi-tsoavala.
8 Now when she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she conceived, and bore a son.
Aa ie notañe’e t’i Lorokamà, le niareñe indraike nisamak’ anadahy.
9 And He said: 'Call his name Lo-ammi; for ye are not My people, and I will not be yours.'
Le hoe re, Toñono ty hoe Loamý fa tsy ondatiko nahareo vaho tsy ho Andrianañahare’ areo iraho.
10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass that, instead of that which was said unto them: 'Ye are not My people', it shall be said unto them: 'Ye are the children of the living God.'
Fe mbe ho mira amo fasen-driakeo ty ia’ o ana’ Israeleo, ze tsy ho mete zeheñe ndra iaheñe; ie amy zay, amy tane nanoañe ama’ areo te Tsy ondatiko nahareoy, ty hafetse am’ iereo te Anan’ Añahare Veloñe.
11 And the children of Judah and the children of Israel shall be gathered together, and they shall appoint themselves one head, and shall go up out of the land; for great shall be the day of Jezreel.
Le hifanontoñe o ana’ Iehodào naho o ana’ Israeleo, naho ho tendrè’ iareo ty mpiaolo raike ho a iareo, vaho hitombo an-tane eo: fa jabajaba ty andro’ Iezreèle.
