< Hosea 2 >

1 Say to brothers your people my and to sisters your she is Shown Compassion.
Na manuca rhoek te, ‘Ka pilnam, na ngannu rhoek te ‘Kan haidam’ ti nah.
2 Conduct a case with mother your conduct a case for she not [is] wife my and I not [am] husband her and let her remove prostitution her from face her and adulteries her from between breasts her.
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 samphaihnah a rhangsuk laklo lamkah khoe laeh saeh.
3 Lest I should strip her naked and I will exhibit her like [the] day was born she and I will make her like wilderness and I will make her like a land dry and I should make die 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 And children her not I will have compassion on for [are] children of prostitution they.
Amih pumyoi ca rhoek mai te, a ca rhoek te khaw ka haidam mahpawh.
5 For she has prostituted herself mother their she has acted shamefully [the] [one who] conceived them for she said I will go after lovers my [who] give food my and water my wool my and flax my oil my and drinks my.
A manu te cukhalh pai tih amih a yom te yak. “Kai aka lungnah tih 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 here I [am] about to fence up way your with thorns and I will wall up wall her and paths her not she will find.
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 And she will pursue lovers her and not she will overtake them and she will seek them and not she will find [them] and she will say I will go and I will return to husband my former for it was good for me then more 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 And she not she knows that I I gave to her the grain and the new wine and the fresh oil and silver I multiplied to her and gold [which] they made into 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 return and I will take grain my at appropriate time its and new wine my at appointed time its and I will take away wool my and flax my to cover nakedness her.
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 And now I will uncover lewdness her to [the] eyes of lovers her and anyone not he will deliver her from hand my.
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 And I will put an end to all gaiety her festival[s] her new moon[s] her and sabbath[s] her and every appointed feast her.
A omthennah, a khotue, a hlasae neh a Sabbath khaw, a tingtunnah boeih khaw boeih ka paa sak ni.
12 And I will devastate vine[s] her and fig tree[s] her which she said [are] wage[s] they of me which they gave to me lovers my and I will make them into a thicket and it will consume them [the] animal[s] of the field.
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 And I will visit on her [the] days of the Baals when she made smoke to them and she ornamented herself ring[s] her and jewelry her and she went after lovers her and me she forgot [the] utterance of Yahweh.
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 here! I [am] about to persuade her and I will lead her the wilderness and I will speak (to *L(abh)*) heart her.
Te dongah kamah loh anih te ka hloih ni ne. Tedae amah te khosoek la a pha sak phoeiah ni a lungbuei ah ka voek eh.
15 And I will give to her vineyards her from there and [the] valley of Achor to a door of hope and she will answer there like [the] days of youth her and like [the] day went up she from [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 And it will be in the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh you will call husband my and not you will call me again Baal my.
BOEIPA 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 And I will remove [the] names of the Baals from mouth her and not they will be remembered again by name their.
Baal ming te a ka lamloh ka khoe pah vetih a ming te poek voel mahpawh.
18 And I will make to them a covenant in the day that with [the] animal[s] of the field and with [the] bird[s] of the heavens and [the] creeping thing[s] of the ground and bow and sword and battle I will break from the land and I will make lie down them to security.
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 And I will betroth you to myself for ever and I will betroth you to myself in righteousness and in justice and in covenant loyalty 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 And I will betroth you to myself in faithfulness and you will know Yahweh.
Nang te kamah hamla uepomnah neh kam bae van daengah ni BOEIPA te na ming eh.
21 And it will be - in the day that I will answer [the] utterance of Yahweh I will answer the heavens and they they will answer 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 it will answer the grain and the new wine and the fresh oil and they they will answer 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 Lo-Ruhamah and I will say to Not-People My [are] people my you and he he will say God my.
Anih te kamah hamla lohma ah ka soem vetih a haidam pawt te ka haidam ni. Nang Loami te ka pilnam ka ti vetih anih long khaw ka Pathen a ti ni.
