Hosea 2
1 “Say to your brothers—Ammi, And to your sisters—Ruhamah.
“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 she turns her whoredoms from before her, And her adulteries 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 Lest I strip her naked. And have set her up as [in] the day of her birth, And have made her as a wilderness, And have set her as a dry land, And have put her to death 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 her sons I do not pity, For they [are] sons of whoredoms,
Èmi kò ní fi àánú mi hàn sí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ nítorí ọmọ àgbèrè ni wọ́n jẹ́.
5 For their mother has gone whoring, Their conceiver has acted shamefully, For she has said, I go after my lovers, Those giving my bread and my water, My wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.
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 am hedging up your way with thorns, And I have made a wall for her, And her paths she does not find.
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 has pursued her lovers, And she does not overtake them, And has sought them, and does not find [them], And she has said: I go, and I return to my first husband, For—better to me then 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 did not know that I had given to her The grain, and the new wine, and the oil. Indeed, I multiplied silver to her, And the gold they prepared for Ba‘al.
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 return, And I have taken My grain in its season, And My new wine in its appointed time, And I have taken away My wool and My flax, covering 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 reveal her dishonor before the eyes of her lovers, And none 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 have caused all her joy to cease, Her festival, her new moon, and her Sabbath, Even all her appointed times,
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 made desolate her vine and her fig tree, Of which she said, They [are] a wage to me, That my lovers have given to me, And I have made them for a forest, And a beast of the field has consumed 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 have charged on her the days of the Ba‘alim, To whom she makes incense, And puts on her ring and her ornament, And goes after her lovers, And forgot Me,” a declaration of YHWH.
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 am enticing her, And have caused her to go to the wilderness, And I have spoken to her heart,
“Nítorí náà, èmi yóò tàn án, Èmi ó sì mú u lọ sí ilẹ̀ aṣálẹ̀, Èmi ó fi pẹ̀lẹ́pẹ̀lẹ́ bá a sọ̀rọ̀
15 And given to her her vineyards from there, And the Valley of Achor for an opening of hope, And she has responded there as in the days of her youth, And as in the day 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 has come to pass in that day,” A declaration of YHWH, “You call Me: My husband, And do not call Me anymore: My lord.
“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 have turned aside the names of the lords from her mouth, And they are not remembered anymore by their name.
Èmi yóò mú orúkọ, àwọn òrìṣà Baali kúrò lẹ́nu rẹ̀; ìwọ kò sì ní rí orúkọ òrìṣà Baali pè mọ́.
18 And I have made a covenant for them in that day, With the beast of the field, And with the bird of the heavens, And the creeping thing of the ground, And bow, and sword, and war I break from off the land, And have caused them to lie down confidently.
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 have betrothed you to Me for all time, And betrothed you to Me in righteousness, And in judgment, and kindness, and mercies,
Èmi yóò fẹ́ ọ fún ara mi títí láé; Èmi ó fẹ́ ọ ní ìwà òdodo àti òtítọ́, ní ìfẹ́ àti àánú.
20 And betrothed you to Me in faithfulness, And you have known YHWH.
Èmi yóò fẹ́ ọ fún ara mi ní òtítọ́ ìwọ yóò sì mọ Olúwa.
21 And it has come to pass in that day, I answer,” A declaration of YHWH, “I answer the heavens, and they answer 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 answers the grain, And the new wine, and the oil, And they answer Jezreel.
ilẹ̀ náà yóò sì dá ọkà, wáìnì tuntun àti òróró lóhùn Gbogbo wọn ó sì dá Jesreeli lóhùn.
23 And I have sowed her to Me in the land, And I have pitied Lo-Ruhamah, And I have said to Lo-Ammi, You [are] My people, And he says, 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.’”
