Hosea 3

1 And he said Yahweh to me again go love a woman [who] is loved of a companion and [who] commits adultery as loves Yahweh [the] people of Israel and they [are] turning to gods other and [are] loving cakes of grapes.

I mea ano a Ihowa ki ahau, Tena ano haere, arohaina tetahi wahine e arohaina ana e te tangata, he wahine puremu; kia rite ki te aroha o Ihowa ki nga tama a Iharaira, ahakoa e anga atu ana ki nga atua ke, a e matenui ana ki nga keke karepe maroke.

2 And I bought her for myself for fif-teen silver and a homer of barley and a lethech of barley.

Na hokona ana ia e ahau maku ki nga pihi hiriwa kotahi tekau ma rima ki te homa perai, me te hawhe homa parei:

3 And I said to her days many you will dwell to me not you must prostitute yourself and not you must belong to a man and also I to you.

A ka ki atu ki a ia, Kia maha nga ra e noho ai koe he mea taumau maku; kaua e kairau, kaua ano e riro i te tangata: ka pena ano ahau ki a koe.

4 For - days many they will dwell [the] people of Israel there not [will be] a king and there not [will be] a prince and there not [will be] sacrifice and there not [will be] a pillar and there not [will be] an ephod and teraphim.

He maha hoki nga ra e noho ai nga tama a Iharaira, kahore he kingi, kahore he rangatira, kahore he patunga tapu, kahore hoki he pou, kahore he epora, kahore he terapimi.

5 After they will return [the] people of Israel and they will seek Yahweh God their and David king their and they will be in dread to Yahweh and to goodness his at [the] end of the days.

Muri iho ka hoki mai nga tama a Iharaira, ka rapu i a Ihowa, i to ratou Atua, i a Rawiri ano, i to ratou kingi; ka haere mai i runga i te wehi ki a Ihowa, ki tona pai ano i nga ra whakamutunga.
