Hosea 2
1 "Say to your brothers, 'My People.' and to your sisters, 'Compassion.'
Na manuca rhoek te, 'Ka pilnam, na ngannu rhoek te 'Kan haidam 'ti nah.
2 Contend with your mother. Contend, for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her prostitution from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts;
Na nu te ho rhoe ho laeh. Anih te kai yuu pawt tih kai khaw a va moenih. A pumyoihnah te a mikhmuh lamloh, a samphainah a rhangsuk laklo lamkah khoe laeh saeh.
3 Lest I strip her naked, and make her bare as in the day that she was born, and make her like a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and kill her with thirst.
Anih te pumtling la ka hlik vetih a thang hnin kah bangla amah ka khueh tarha ve. Anih te khosoek bangla ka khueh vetih rhamrhae khohmuen la ka khueh phoeiah tuihalh neh ka duek sak ni.
4 Indeed, on her children I will have no mercy; for they are children of unfaithfulness;
Amih pumyoi ca rhoek mai te, a ca rhoek te khaw ka haidam mahpawh.
5 For their mother has played the prostitute. She who conceived them has done shamefully; for she said, 'I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.'
A manu te cukhalh pai tih amih a yom te yak. Ka buh, ka tui, ka tumul, ka hlamik, ka situi neh ka tuiok aka pae ka lungnah hnukah ni ka caeh eh?,” a ti.
6 Therefore, look, I will hedge up her way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she can't find her way.
Te dongah kamah loh a longpuei te hling neh ka buk pah. A vongtung te ka biing pah vetih a hawn hmu voel mahpawh.
7 She will follow after her lovers, but she won't overtake them; and she will seek them, but won't find them. Then she will say, 'I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.'
A lungnah rhoek te a hloem dae amih te kae mahpawh. Amih te a tlap akhaw hmu mahpawh. Te vaengah, “Ka cet vetih lamhma kah ka va taengah ka mael ni. Kai hamla tah then ngai mai coeng.
8 For she did not know that I gave her the grain, the new wine, and the oil, and multiplied to her silver and gold, which they used for Baal.
Kai loh anih taengah cangpai, misur thai, situi khaw ka paek tih anih soah cak khaw ka kum sak dae sui te Baal hamla a khueh uh.
9 Therefore I will take back my grain in its time, and my new wine in its season, and will pluck away my wool and my flax which should have covered her nakedness.
Te dongah amah tue vaengah ka cangpai neh a khoning vaengkah ka misur thai te ka lat pah vetih ka loh pah ni. A yah a khuk nah ka tumul neh ka hlamik khaw ka lat ni.
10 Now I will uncover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and no one will deliver her out of my hand.
Te phoeiah a yah te a hlang ngaih mikhmuh ah ka poelyoe pah pawn vetih hlang loh anih te ka kut lamkah huul thai mahpawh.
11 I will also cause all her celebrations to cease: her feasts, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.
A omthennah, a khotue, a hlasae neh a Sabbath khaw, a tingtunnah boeih khaw boeih ka paa sak ni.
12 I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees, about which she has said, 'These are my wages that my lovers have given me; and I will make them a forest,' and the animals of the field shall eat them.
A misur neh a thaibu khaw ka pong sak ni. “Te rhoek te kamah kah pumyoih phu la ka hlang ngaih rhoek loh kai taengah m'paek uh,” a ti. Te cakhaw te te duup la ka khueh vetih kohong mulhing loh a caak ni.
13 I will visit on her the days of the Baals, to which she burned incense, when she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me," says the LORD.
Amih taengah a phum bangla Baal kah khohnin khaw anih taengah ka cawh ni. A hnaii neh a hnaphaa a thawn tih a hlang ngaih hnukah cet dae kai, BOEIPA kah olphong te a hnilh.
14 "Therefore, look, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her.
Te dongah kamah loh anih te ka hloih ni ne. Tedae amah te khosoek la pha sak phoeiah ni a lungbuei ah ka voek eh.
15 I will give her vineyards from there, and the Valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will respond there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
Te lamloh a misurdum te amah taengla ka paek vetih Akor kol te ngaiuepnah thohka la om ni. Te vaengah a camoe tue vaengkah bangla pahoi oei vetih Egypt kho lamloh a caeh hnin bangla om ni.
16 It will be in that day," says the LORD, "that you will call me 'my husband,' and no longer call me 'my master.'
BOEIP A kah olphong te a khohnin neh a pha vaengah tah ka va la nan khue vetih kai taengah, “Kai kah Baal,” la na khue voel mahpawh.
17 For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and they will no longer be mentioned by name.
Baal ming te a ka lamloh ka khoe pah vetih a ming te poek voel mahpawh.
18 In that day I will make a covenant for them with the animals of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the crawling creatures of the ground. I will break the bow, the sword, and the battle out of the land, and will make them lie down safely.
Te khohnin ah tah amih ham paipi te kohong mulhing neh, vaan kah vaa neh, diklai rhulcai neh ka saii pah ni. Diklai lamkah lii, cunghang neh caemtloek te ka bawt sak vetih amih te ngaikhuek la ka yalh sak ni.
19 I will betroth you to me forever. Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion.
Nang te kamah ham kumhal duela kam bae vetih duengnah neh, tiktamnah neh, sitlohnah neh, haidamnah neh nang te kamah hamla kam bae ni.
20 I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness; and you shall know the LORD.
Nang te kamah hamla uepomnah neh kam bae van daengah ni BOEIPA te na ming eh.
21 It will happen in that day, I will respond," says the LORD, "I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth;
Te khohnin te a pha vaengah BOEIPA kah olphong te ka doo vetih vaan te khaw ka doo ni. Amih long khaw diklai te a doo uh ni.
22 and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will respond to Jezreel.
Diklai long khaw cangpai misur thai neh situi te a doo vetih amih loh Jezreel te a doo ni.
23 And I will sow her for myself in the land; and I will have compassion on No Compassion; and I will say to Not My People, 'You are my people;' and they will say, 'My God.'"
Anih te kamah hamlalohma ah ka soem vetih a haidam pawt te ka haidam ni. Nang Laomi te ka pilnam ka ti vetih anih long khaw ka Pathen a ti ni.
