< Hosea 3 >

1 And the LORD said unto me: 'Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend and an adulteress, even as the LORD loveth the children of Israel, though they turn unto other gods, and love cakes of raisins.
Alò, SENYÈ a te di mwen: “Ale ankò, renmen ak yon fanm ki renmen pa yon lòt, malgre se yon fanm adiltè, menm jan ke SENYÈ a renmen fis Israël yo, poutan, yo vire vè lòt dye yo, e yo renmen gato rezen yo.”
2 So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver and a homer of barley, and a half-homer of barley;
Konsa, mwen te achte fanm nan pou yon sòm a kenz pyès ajan ak yon omè edmi lòj.
3 and I said unto her: 'Thou shalt sit solitary for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be any man's wife; nor will I be thine.'
Mwen te di li: “Ou va rete avè m pandan anpil jou. Ou p ap fè pwostitisyon, ni ou p ap madanm a yon gason. Epi konsa, mwen va menm jan anvè ou menm.”
4 For the children of Israel shall sit solitary many days without king, and without prince, and without sacrifice, and without pillar, and without ephod or teraphim;
Paske, fis Israël yo va rete pandan anpil jou san wa ni prens, san sakrifis, ni pilye sakre, san efòd e san zidòl lakay yo.
5 afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall come trembling unto the LORD and to His goodness in the end of days.
Apre sa, fis Israël yo va retounen chache SENYÈ Bondye yo a, ak David, wa yo a. Yo va vini avèk krentif kote SENYÈ a e kote bonte Li nan dènye jou yo.
