1 Return! O Israel to Yahweh God your for you have stumbled on iniquity your.
Wee Isiraeli-rĩ, cookerera Jehova Ngai waku. Mehia maku nĩmo makũgũithĩtie!
2 Take with you words and return to Yahweh say to him every you will forgive iniquity and take good thing[s] so let us pay bulls lips our.
Thiĩ na ciugo ũcookerere Jehova, ũmwĩre atĩrĩ, “Tũrekere mehia maitũ mothe, na ũtwamũkĩre na wega waku, nĩguo tũhote gũkũrutĩra igongona rĩa gũkũgooca na mĩromo iitũ.
3 Assyria - not it will save us on horse[s] not we will ride and not we will say again gods our to [the] work of hands our that by you he is shown compassion [the] fatherless.
Ashuri ndangĩhota gũtũhonokia; tũtikũhaica mbarathi cia ita. Tũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ tũgaacooka gwĩta kĩrĩa tũthondekete na moko maitũ ‘ngai ciitũ,’ nĩgũkorwo thĩinĩ waku ciana cia ngoriai nĩciiguagĩrwo tha.”
4 I will heal apostasy their I will love them voluntariness for it has turned away anger my from him.
“Nĩngamahonia kũrĩa maanoora njĩra, na ndĩmende ndĩyendeire; nĩgũkorwo marakara makwa nĩmamehereire.
5 I will be like the dew to Israel it will blossom like lily and it may strike roots its like Lebanon.
Ngaatuĩka ta ime harĩ Isiraeli; nake akaarirũka ta gĩtoka. Agaikũrũkia mĩri yake ehaande o ta mĩtarakwa ya Lebanoni.
6 They will go young shoots its and it may be like olive tree splendor its and fragrance of it like Lebanon.
Thuuna ciake nĩigakũra. Ũthaka wake ũgaatuĩka ta wa mũtĩ wa mũtamaiyũ, naguo mũtararĩko wake ũtuĩke ta mũtarakwa wa Lebanoni.
7 They will return [those who] dwell in shade its they will cause to grow grain so they may blossom like vine memorial its [will be] like [the] wine of Lebanon.
Andũ nĩmagatũũra rĩngĩ kĩĩruru-inĩ gĩake. Nake akaarura ta ngano. Akaarirũka ta mũthabibũ, nayo ngumo yake ĩtuĩke ta ya ndibei ya kuuma Lebanoni.
8 O Ephraim what? to me again to idols I I will answer and I will watch over it I [am] like a cypress tree luxuriant from me fruit your it is found.
Wee Efiraimu, ndĩ na ũhoro ũngĩ ũrĩkũ na mĩhianano ya kũhooywo? Nĩngamũcookeria ũhoro na ndĩmũmenyerere. Haana ta mũkarakaba mũruru; gũciara gwaku kuumaga harĩ niĩ.”
9 Who? [is] wise and let him understand these [things] discerning? and let him know them for [are] upright [the] ways of Yahweh and righteous [people] they walk in them and transgressors they stumble in them.
Nũũ mũũgĩ? Ũcio nĩakamenya maũndũ macio. Nũũ ũkũũranaga maũndũ? Ũcio nĩakamamenya. Njĩra cia Jehova nĩ njagĩrĩru; arĩa athingu nĩcio mathiiagĩra, no arĩa aremi mahĩngagwo marĩ o njĩra-inĩ icio.
