< Hosea 6 >

1 “Come, and we turn back to YHWH, For He has torn, and He heals us, He strikes, and He binds us up.
Na mwet uh fahk, “Lela kut in folokla nu yurin LEUM GOD! El sekuti, ac El ac fah akkeyekutla. El kantekuti, tuh El ac fah pwelah kinet kacsr uh.
2 He revives us after two days, In the third day He raises us up, And we live before Him.
Inmasrlon len luo ku tolu, El ac akmoulyekutyak, ac kut ac sifilpa muta yorol.
3 And we know—we pursue to know YHWH, His going forth is prepared as the dawn, And He comes in as a shower to us, As spring rain [and] autumn rain to the earth.”
Lela kut in srike in etu LEUM GOD. Pwayena lah El ac tuku nu yorosr oana ke faht uh takak ke lotutang nukewa, ac oana ke af uh ac kahki meet liki pacl in fokla fokinsak uh.”
4 “What do I do to you, O Ephraim? What do I do to you, O Judah? Your goodness [is] as a cloud of the morning, And as dew rising early—going.
Tusruktu LEUM GOD El fahk, “Israel ac Judah, mea nga ac oru nu suwos uh? Lungse lowos nu sik uh sa na wanginla oana ohk ke kusrun len, ac oana aunfong su sa na in wanginla ke lotutang.
5 Therefore I have hewed by prophets, I have slain them by sayings of My mouth, And My judgments go forth to the light.
Pa inge sripa se sis nga supwaot mwet palu luk in fahkak kas in nununku ac kunausla nu suwos. Ma nga enenu suwos uh arulana kalem:
6 For kindness I desired, and not sacrifice, And a knowledge of God above burnt-offerings.
Nga enenu lungse kawil lowos, ac tia mwe kisa ke kosro. Wona sik mwet luk uh in eteyu, liki na elos in orek kisa firir nu sik.
7 And they, as Adam, transgressed a covenant, There they dealt treacherously against Me.
“Tusruk, in pacl se na elos utyak nu in acn Adam, elos kunausla wuleang luk su nga orala yorolos.
8 Gilead [is] a city of workers of iniquity, Slippery from blood.
Siti Gilead sie acn su tingtingi ke mwet koluk ac mwet akmas.
9 And as bands wait for a man, A company of priests murder—the way to Shechem, For they have done wickedness.
Mwet tol elos oana u in mwet sulallal su wikwik in soano mwet. Finne inkanek nu yen mutal in acn Shechem, elos orek akmas pac we. Elos pwapani in oru ma koluk inge nukewa.
10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing, There [is] the whoredom of Ephraim—Israel is defiled.
Nga liye sie ma arulana koluk in Israel: mwet luk elos tiana pwaye nu sik ke sripen elos alu nu ke ma sruloala.
11 Also, O Judah, a harvest is appointed to you, In My turning back [to] the captivity of My people!”
“Ac nu suwos mwet Judah, nga oakiya tari sie pacl in kai nu suwos ke sripen orekma lowos.
