Hosea 1
1 The word of the Lord that came unto Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of 'Uzziyah, Jotham, Achaz, [and] Hezekiah, the kings of Judah, and in the days of Jerobo'am the son of Joash the king of Israel.
Dubbiin Waaqayyoo kan bara Uziyaan, Yootaam, Aahaaziitii fi Hisqiyaas mootota Yihuudaa keessa, akkasumas bara Yerobiʼaam ilma Yooʼaash mooticha Israaʼel keessa gara Hooseʼaa ilma Biʼeer dhufe kanaa dha:
2 The beginning of the word of the Lord by Hosea was, that the Lord said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of prostitution and children of prostitution; for the [inhabitants of the] land go far astray, departing from the Lord.
Yeroo Waaqayyo karaa Hooseʼaatiin dubbachuu jalqabetti Waaqayyo akkana isaan jedhe; “Sababii biyyattiin Waaqayyo irraa gortee yakka sagaagalummaa guddaa isaa hojjetteef ati dhaqiitii niitii sagaagaltuu fi ijoollee hin amanamne ofii keetiif fudhadhu.”
3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblayim, and she conceived and bore him a son.
Kanaafuu inni dhaqee Goomer intala Diblaayiim fuudhe; isheenis ulfooftee ilma deesseef.
4 And the Lord said unto him, Call his name Yizre'el; for but yet a little while, when I will visit the blood of Yizre'el upon the house of Jehu, and I will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.
Kana irratti Waaqayyo Hooseʼaatiin akkana jedhe; “Ani sababii dhiiga Yizriʼeel keessatti dhangalaʼe sanaatiif dafee mana Yehuu waanan adabuuf Yizriʼeel jedhii isa moggaasi; ani mootummaa Israaʼel nan balleessa.
5 And it shall come to pass on that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Yizre'el.
Gaafas ani Sulula Yizriʼeel keessatti iddaa Israaʼel nan cabsa.”
6 And she conceived again, and bore a daughter: and he said unto him, Call her name Lo-ruchamah [[Not finding mercy]]; for I will not farther have any more mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will give them their full recompense.
Goomer amma illee ulfooftee intala deesse. Waaqayyo Hooseʼaatiin akkana jedhe; “Sababii ani isaaniif araaramuu fi siʼachis mana Israaʼeliif garaa hin laafneef Loo-Ruhaamaa jedhii ishee moggaasi.
7 But upon the house of Judah will I have mercy, and I will save them through the Lord their God, and I will not save them by the bow, or by the sword, or by battle, by horses, or by horsemen.
Taʼus ani mana Yihuudaatiif garaa nan laafa; ani xiyyaan yookaan goraadeedhaan yookaan waraanaan yookaan fardeeniin yookaan abbootii fardaatiin isaan hin oolchu; garuu ani Waaqayyo Waaqni isaanii isaan nan oolcha.”
8 Now when she had weaned Lo-ruchamah, she conceived, and bore a son.
Goomer erga Loo-Ruhaamaa harma guusiftee booddee ulfooftee ilma deesse.
9 Then said he, Call his name Lo-'ammi [[Not my people]]; for ye are not my people, and I will indeed not be unto you [a God].
Ergasiis Waaqayyo akkana jedhe; “Isin waan saba koo hin taʼinii fi anis Waaqa keessan hin taʼiniif Loo-Amii jedhii isa moggaasi.
10 Yet shall the number of the children of Israel [once] be like the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that instead that people say of them, Ye are not my people [[Lo-'ammi]], shall they call them, The sons of the living God.
“Taʼus Israaʼel akkuma cirracha qarqara galaanaa kan madaalamuu yookaan hedamuu hin dandaʼamnee taʼa. Isaan iddoodhuma itti, ‘Isin saba koo miti’ isaaniin jedhame sanatti, ‘Ilmaan Waaqa jiraataa’ jedhamanii ni waamamu.
11 Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and they will appoint for themselves one head, and they shall go up out of the land, for great shall be the day of Yizre'el.
Guyyaan Yizriʼeel waan guddaa taʼuuf, sabni Yihuudaatii fi sabni Israaʼel deebiʼanii tokko taʼu; isaan hoogganaa tokko muuddatanii biyya sana keessaa ni baʼu.
