Osee 2

1 Say to your brother, My people, and to your sister, Pitied.

“Sọ fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ, ‘Ènìyàn mi,’ kí o sì wí fún àwọn arábìnrin rẹ ‘Àyànfẹ́ mi.’

2 Plead with your mother, plead: for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband: and I will remove her fornication out of my presence, and her adultery from between her breasts:

“Ẹ bá ìyá yín wí, ẹ bá a wí, nítorí pé kì í ṣe ìyàwó mi, Èmi náà kì í sì í ṣe ọkọ rẹ̀. Jẹ́ kí ó yọ àgbèrè rẹ̀ kúrò lójú rẹ̀ àti àìṣòótọ́ kúrò ní àyà rẹ̀.

3 that I may strip her naked, and make her again as she was at the day of her birth: and I will make her desolate, and make her as a dry land, and will kill her with thirst.

Àìṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ èmi yóò tú u sí ìhòhò, Èmi yóò sì gbé e kalẹ̀ bí ọjọ́ tí a bí i. Èmi yóò ṣe ọ́ bí i aṣálẹ̀ ilẹ̀, Èmi yóò sì sọ ọ́ di ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀ Èmi yóò sì fi òǹgbẹ gbẹ ẹ́.

4 And I will not have mercy upon her children; for they are children of fornication.

Èmi kò ní fi àánú mi hàn sí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ nítorí ọmọ àgbèrè ni wọ́n jẹ́.

5 And their mother went a-whoring: she that bore them disgraced [them]: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, and my garments, and my linen clothes, my oil and my necessaries.

Nítorí ìyá wọn ti hùwà àgbèrè, ó sì lóyún wọn nínú ìtìjú. Ó wí pé, ‘Èmi ó tún tọ́ àwọn àyànfẹ́ mi lẹ́yìn, tó ń fún mi ní oúnjẹ àti omi, ní irun àgùntàn mi àti ọ̀gbọ̀ mi, òróró mi àti ohun mímu mi.’

6 Therefore, behold, I hedge up her way with thorns, and I will stop the ways, and she shall not find her path.

Nítorí náà, èmi ó fi ẹ̀gún dì í lọ́nà, Èmi ó mọ odi yí i ká kí ó má ba à rọ́nà lọ.

7 And she shall follow after her lovers, and shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: and she shall say, I will go, and return to my former husband; for it was better with me than now.

Yóò sáré lé àwọn olólùfẹ́ rẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n kò ní bá wọn; yóò wá wọn ṣùgbọ́n kò ní rí wọn. Nígbà náà ni yóò sọ pé, ‘Èmi ó padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọkọ mi àkọ́kọ́ nítorí pé ó dára fún mi nígbà náà ju ìsinsin yìí lọ.’

8 And she knew not that I gave her her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied silver to her: but she made silver and gold [images] for Baal.

Nítorí pé kò tí ì mọ̀ pé èmi ni àti ẹni tó fún un ní ọkà, ọtí wáìnì tuntun àti òróró ẹni tí ó fún un ní fàdákà àti wúrà lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀, èyí tí wọ́n lò fún Baali.

9 Therefore I will return, and take away my corn in its season, and my wine in its time; and I will take away my raiment and my linen clothes, so that she shall not cover her nakedness.

“Nítorí náà, èmi yóò mú ọkà mi kúrò nígbà tó bá pọ́n, èmi yóò sì mú wáìnì mi kúrò ní àsìkò rẹ̀. Èmi yóò sì gba irun àgùntàn àti ọ̀gbọ̀ mi padà ti mo ti fi fún un láti bo ìhòhò rẹ̀.

10 And now I will expose her uncleanness before her lovers, and no one shall by any means deliver her out of my hand.

Èmi yóò sì fi ìwà ìtìjú rẹ̀ hàn lójú àwọn olólùfẹ́ rẹ̀ kò sí ẹni tí yóò gbà á sílẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ mi,

11 And I will take away all her gladness, her feasts, and her festivals at the new moon, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.

Èmi yóò mú gbogbo ayọ̀ rẹ̀ wá sí òpin: àjọ̀dún ọdọọdún rẹ̀, oṣù tuntun rẹ̀, ọjọ́ ìsinmi, àti gbogbo àwọn àjọ̀dún tí a yàn.

12 And I will utterly destroy her vines, and her fig-trees, all things of which she said, These are my hire which my lovers have given me: and I will make them a testimony, and the wild beasts of the field, and the birds of the sky, and the reptiles of the earth shall devour them.

Èmi yóò pa àjàrà àti igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ rẹ̀ run, èyí tí ó pè ní èrè rẹ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn olólùfẹ́ rẹ̀, Èmi yóò sọ wọ́n di igbó, àwọn ẹranko búburú yóò sì jẹ́ wọn run.

13 And I will recompense on her the days of Baalim, wherein she sacrificed to them, and put on her ear-rings, and her necklaces, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, says the Lord.

Èmi yóò bẹ̀ ọjọ́ Baalimu wò ní ara rẹ̀ nínú èyí tó ń fi tùràrí jóná fún Baali; tí ó fi òrùka etí àti ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ rẹ̀, ṣe ara rẹ̀ lọ́ṣọ̀ọ́, tó sì tẹ̀lé àwọn olólùfẹ́ rẹ̀ lọ. Ṣùgbọ́n èmi ni òun gbàgbé,” ni Olúwa wí.

14 Therefore, behold, I [will] cause her to err, and will make her as desolate, and will speak comfortably to her.

“Nítorí náà, èmi yóò tàn án, Èmi ó sì mú u lọ sí ilẹ̀ aṣálẹ̀, Èmi ó fi pẹ̀lẹ́pẹ̀lẹ́ bá a sọ̀rọ̀

15 And I will giver her possessions from thence, and the valley of Achor to open her understanding: and she shall be afflicted there according to the days of her infancy, and according to the days of her coming up out of the land of Egypt.

Níbẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ti dá ọgbà àjàrà rẹ̀ padà fún un, Èmi yóò fi àfonífojì Akori ṣe ìlẹ̀kùn ìrètí fún un. Yóò sì kọrin níbẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìgbà èwe rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìgbà tó kúrò ní Ejibiti.

16 And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord, [that] she shall call me, My husband, and shall no longer call me Baalim.

“Yóò sì ṣe ní ọjọ́ náà, ìwọ yóò pè mí ní ‘ọkọ mi’; ìwọ kò sì ní pè mí ní ‘olúwa à mi mọ́,’ ni Olúwa wí.

17 And I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and their names shall be remembered no more at all.

Èmi yóò mú orúkọ, àwọn òrìṣà Baali kúrò lẹ́nu rẹ̀; ìwọ kò sì ní rí orúkọ òrìṣà Baali pè mọ́.

18 And I will make for them in that day a covenant with the wild beasts of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the reptiles of the earth: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle from off the earth, and will cause you to dwell safely.

Ní ọjọ́ náà, èmi yóò ṣe májẹ̀mú fún wọn àti àwọn ẹranko igbó àti ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run àti àwọn ẹ̀dá tí ń rìn lórí ilẹ̀. Kí wọn má bà á bẹ̀rù ara wọn mọ́. Ọfà, idà àti ogun jíjà ni èmi ó parun ní ilẹ̀ náà kí gbogbo ènìyàn bá a lè wà ní àìléwu.

19 And I will betroth you to myself for ever; yes, I will betroth you to myself in righteousness, and in judgment, and in mercy, and in tender compassions;

Èmi yóò fẹ́ ọ fún ara mi títí láé; Èmi ó fẹ́ ọ ní ìwà òdodo àti òtítọ́, ní ìfẹ́ àti àánú.

20 and I will betroth you to myself in faithfulness: and you shall know the Lord.

Èmi yóò fẹ́ ọ fún ara mi ní òtítọ́ ìwọ yóò sì mọ Olúwa.

21 And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord, I will listen to the heaven, and it shall listen to the earth;

“Èmi yóò sì dáhùn ní ọjọ́ náà,” ni Olúwa wí; “Èmi yóò dá àwọn ọ̀run lóhùn àwọn ọ̀run yóò sì dá ilẹ̀ lóhùn;

22 and the earth shall listen to the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall listen to Jezrael.

ilẹ̀ náà yóò sì dá ọkà, wáìnì tuntun àti òróró lóhùn Gbogbo wọn ó sì dá Jesreeli lóhùn.

23 And I will sow her to me on the earth; and will love her that was not loved, and will say to that which was not my people, You are my people; and they shall say, You are the Lord my God.

Èmi ó sì gbìn ín fún ara mi lórí ilẹ̀ náà, Èmi yóò ṣàánú fún ẹni tí kò tì í ri ‘Àánú gbà.’ Èmi yóò sọ fún àwọn tí ‘Kì í ṣe ènìyàn mi pé,’ ‘Ẹ̀yin ni ènìyàn mi’; àwọn náà yóò sì wí pé, ‘Ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run mi.’”
