Osee 3

1 And the Lord said to me, Go yet, and love a woman that loves evil things, an adulteress, even as the Lord loves the children of Israel, and they have respect to strange gods, and love cakes of dried grapes.

Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe; “Namni biraa ishee jaallatee isheen sagaagaltuu taatu iyyuu, ati dhaqiitii ammas niitii keetti jaalala kee argisiisi. Akkuma Waaqayyoo utuma isaan waaqota biraatti deebiʼanii bixxillee wayinii jaallatanuu Israaʼeloota jaallate sana atis ishee jaalladhu.”

2 So I hired [her] to myself for fifteen [pieces] of silver, and a homer of barley, and a flagon of wine.

Kanaafuu ani meetii saqilii kudha shaniin, garbuu hoomeerii tokkoo fi walakkaatiin ishee nan bitadhe.

3 And I said to her, You shall wait for me many days; and you shall not commit fornication, neither shall you be for [another] man; and I [will be] for you.

Ani ergasii akkana nan jedheen; “Ati bara hedduu na wajjin jiraachuu qabda; ati sagaagaltuu taʼuu yookaan nama kam iyyuu wajjin tokko taʼuu hin qabdu; ani si wajjin nan jiraadha.”

4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an altar, and without a priesthood, and without manifestations.

Israaʼeloonni mootii yookaan ilma mootii malee, aarsaa yookaan utubaa waaqeffannaa malee dirata yookaan waaqota tolfamoo malee bara baayʼee ni jiraatuutii.

5 And afterward shall the children of Israel return, and shall seek the Lord their God, and David their king; and shall be amazed at the Lord and at his goodness in the latter days.

Ergasii immoo Israaʼeloonni deebiʼanii Waaqayyo Waaqa isaaniitii fi Daawit mootii isaanii barbaadu. Isaan bara dhumaa keessa hollachaa gara Waaqayyootii fi gara eebba isaa ni dhufu.
