< Hosea 2 >

1 Say you to your brothers, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah.
Na hmaunawnghanaw hah ka tami telah thoseh, na tawncanunaw hah ka pahren e ka canu telah thoseh bout ka kaw han.
2 Plead with your mother, plead: for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband: let her therefore put away her prostitutions out of her sight, and her adulteries from between her breasts;
Na manu teh dei pouh awh. Ahni teh kaie ka yu nahoeh. Kai haiyah ahnie a vâ nahoeh.
3 Lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and slay her with thirst.
Kâyonae minhmai padai laipalah kathoute hno roun naseh. Roun hoehpawiteh, a khenae patetlah caici lah thingyei um pak ka tha han. Tui ni a hak takhai e talai patetlah tui ka pakoung vaiteh ka due sak han.
4 And I will not have mercy on her children; for they be the children of prostitutions.
A canaw haiyah cataca lah ao dawkvah kai ni ka pahren mahoeh.
5 For their mother has played the harlot: she that conceived them has done shamefully: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.
Ahnimae manu teh, kâyawt e doeh. Ahni ka vawn e napui hai yeirai a po toe. Ahni nihaiyah ka bu, ka tui, ka tumuen, ka tangka, ka satui, nei hane tui ouk na ka poe e kapahrennaw hnuk ka kâbang han a ti.
6 Therefore, behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns, and make a wall, that she shall not find her paths.
Hatdawkvah pâkhing hoi ka kalup han. A tâco thai hoeh nahanlah talung hoi ka tapang sin han.
7 And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.
A pahren hah a pâlei ei phat mahoeh. A tawng ei hmawt laipalah ao navah, ka vâ karuem koe doeh bout ka cei han toe ati. Atu e hmuen koe hlak hmaloe e hmuen koe doeh hoe ahawi ati han.
8 For she did not know that I gave her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied her silver and gold, which they prepared for Baal.
Cang, misur, satuinaw hoi Baal bawknae sui hoi ngun hai moi ka poe eiteh, Kai na pahnim awh.
9 Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in the time thereof, and my wine in the season thereof, and will recover my wool and my flax given to cover her nakedness.
Hatdawkvah canga tue nah cakang, misurtui kasu tue nah misurtui, ka poe mahoeh. Kaie tumuen hoi ngun, a caicinae ramuknae hah ka bankhai han.
10 And now will I discover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and none shall deliver her out of my hand.
Atu roeroe a pahrennaw koe a khohna e ka rading pouh vaiteh, yeiraipo sak han. Apinihai ka kut dawk hoi hlout sak thai mahoeh.
11 I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts.
A nawmnae, pawitonae, thaparei hnin, sabbath hnin, tamimaya kamkhueng e pueng ka pout sak han.
12 And I will destroy her vines and her fig trees, whereof she has said, These are my rewards that my lovers have given me: and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them.
Het hateh, ka pahren ni na poe e poehno ati e misurnaw, thaibunglungnaw lungpalueng lah ka ta vaiteh, ratu lah ka sak han, hahoi sarangnaw ni a ca awh han.
13 And I will visit on her the days of Baalim, wherein she burned incense to them, and she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgot me, says the LORD.
Baal cathutnaw koe hmuitui hmai a sawi awh teh, hnongpacap hoi dingyin a awi awh teh, a pahren hnuk a kâbang awh teh, Kai na pahnim awh dawkvah, Baal cathutnaw e tueng dawk e patetlah moipathung han telah Cathut ni a ti.
14 Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably to her.
Hatei, ahni hah bout ka pasawt han. Kahrawng lahoi a ceikhai awh nakunghai, pasawtnae lawk hoi ka dei pouh awh han.
15 And I will give her her vineyards from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
Hote hmuen koe misur takha hai thoseh, Akhor tanghling koe ngaihawinae takhang hai thoseh ka sak pouh han. A camo nah Izip ram hoi a tâconae la a sak awh e patetlah namran lah a pha awh toteh, la a sak awh han.
16 And it shall be at that day, says the LORD, that you shall call me Ishi; and shall call me no more Baali.
BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, hatnae tueng dawk nang ni kai hah Bawipa telah na kaw mahoeh, ka vâ telah na kaw han.
17 For I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name.
Baal e min roeroe heh nangmae pahni dawk hoi takhoe vaiteh, a min hah dei lah rawraw bout dei mahoeh toe.
18 And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely.
Hatnae tueng dawk Kai ni ahnimouh hanlah, kahrawng e sarang, kalvan e tava, talai dawk e sarangnaw hoi na kâhuiko vaiteh, licung, tahloi, senehmaicanaw, talai dawk hoi ka takhoe han. Lungpuen tâsuenae awm laipalah a i awh han.
19 And I will betroth you to me for ever; yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in loving kindness, and in mercies.
Nang teh, ka yu lah pou na o han toe. Lannae, kamsoum e, ka kuep e lungmanae hoi nang teh kama hanelah na la han toe.
20 I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness: and you shall know the LORD.
Ka lawkkam ka tarawi vaiteh na la han, nang ni Cathut na panue han.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear, says the LORD, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth;
Bawipa ni telah ati, hatnae tueng dawk ratoumnae Kai ni na thai pouh han. Kalvan lawk ka thai pouh vai teh, ahni ni talai lawk a thai pouh awh han.
22 And the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jezreel.
Talai ni hai cakang, misurtui, satui, naw e lawk a thai vaiteh, ahnimouh ni hai Jezreel e lawk a thai awh han.
23 And I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not my people, You are my people; and they shall say, You are my God.
Hote napui hah cati patetlah talai dawk kama hane ka patue han. Ka pahren hoeh e napui hah ka pahren han. Ka tami hoeh e koe ka tami ka ti pouh han. Ahnimouh ni hai nang teh kaimae Cathut doeh na ti pouh awh. han.
