Hosea 1
1 [I am] Hosea, the son of Beeri. Yahweh gave me these messages [at various times] during the years that Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were the kings of Judah, and Jeroboam the son of Jehoash was the King of Israel.
Mao kini ang pulong ni Yahweh nga miabot ngadto kang Hosea nga anak nga lalaki ni Beri sa mga adlaw nila Uzia, Jotam, Ahaz, ug Hezekia, mga hari sa Juda, ug sa mga adlaw ni Jeroboam nga anak nga lalaki ni Joash, hari sa Israel.
2 When Yahweh first [began to] give messages to me [to tell to the people of Israel], he said to me, “Go and marry a prostitute. But [some of] her children will be born as a result of her having sex with men to whom she is not married. That will illustrate how the people of Israel have turned away from me and worship (idols/other gods).”
Sa dihang nakigsulti si Yahweh pinaagi kang Hosea, miingon siya kaniya, “Lakaw, pangasawa ug usa ka babaye nga nagbaligya ug dungog. Makabaton siya ug mga anak tungod sa iyang pagbaligya ug dungog. Tungod kay kining yutaa nagbuhat ug hilabihan nga pagbaligya ug dungog pinaagi sa pagbiya kang Yahweh.”
3 So I married Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim. She became pregnant and gave birth to my son.
Busa milakaw si Hosea ug gipangasawa niya si Gomer nga anak nga babaye ni Diblaim, ug nagsabak siya ug nanganak ug batang lalaki.
4 Yahweh said to me, “Give him the name Jezreel, [which means ‘God scatters’], because I will soon punish the descendants [MTY] of [King] Jehu [by scattering them], because he killed many of my people at Jezreel [town]. [Some day] I will end the kingdom of Israel,
Miingon si Yahweh kang Hosea, “Nganli siya ug Jezreel. Tungod kay sa dili madugay silotan ko ang balay ni Jehu tungod sa dugo nga naula didto sa Jezreel, ug pagalaglagon ko ang gingharian sa panimalay sa Israel.
5 by destroying the power [MTY] of [the army of] Israel in Jezreel Valley.”
Mahitabo kini sa adlaw nga akong balion ang udyong sa Israel didto sa Walog sa Jezreel.”
6 [Later] Gomer became pregnant [again], and she gave birth to a daughter. Yahweh said to me “Give her the name Lo-ruhamah, [which means ‘not loved],’ because I will no longer [show that I] love the people [MET] of Israel, and I will not forgive them [for the sins that they have committed].
Nagsabak na usab si Gomer ug nanganak ug batang babaye. Unya miingon si Yahweh kang Hosea, “Nganli siya ug Lo Ruhama, tungod kay dili ko na kaluy-an ug pasayloon ang balay sa Israel.
7 But I will [show that I] love the people [MTY] of Judah [by saving them from their enemies]. However, it will not be by weapons and armies or horses and chariots that I will save them. Instead, it will be by [the power that I], Yahweh their God, [have].”
Apan kaluy-an ko ang balay ni Juda, ug ako mismo ang moluwas kanila, Yahweh nga ilang Dios. Dili ko sila luwason pinaagi sa pana, espada, gubat, mga kabayo, o sa mga lalaki nga nagkabayo.”
8 After Gomer had (weaned/stopped breast-feeding) Lo-ruhamah, she became pregnant again, and she gave birth to another son.
Karon human malutas ni Gomer si Lo Ruhama, nagsabak na usab siya ug nanganak ug batang lalaki.
9 Yahweh said “Give him the name Lo-ammi, [which means 'not my people', ] because the people of Israel are no [longer my people], and I am not their God.
Unya miingon si Yahweh, “Nganli siya ug Lo Ammi, tungod kay dili ko kamo katawhan, ug dili ako ang inyong Dios.
10 But [some day] the people of Israel will be [as numerous] as [SIM] the [grains of] sand on the seashore; no one will be able to count them. Now [I] am saying to them, ‘You are not my people,’ but then people will say to them, ‘[You are the] children of God who is all-powerful.’
Sanglit ang gidaghanon sa mga katawhan sa Israel mahimong sama sa balas sa baybayon, nga dili masukod o maihap. Mao kini ang gisulti kanila, 'Dili ko kamo katawhan,' Ug pagasultihan sila, 'Kamo ang katawhan sa buhing Dios.'
11 [At that time], the people of Judah and the people of Israel will unite. They will appoint one leader for all of them, and they will return from the countries [to which they have been (exiled/forced to go)]. That will be a great time; Jezreel [also means ‘God plants’, and it will be as though God will plant them in this country again].”
Pagatigomon ang katawhan sa Juda ug ang katawhan sa Israel. Ug magpili sila ug usa ka pangulo alang sa ilang kaugalingon, ug motungas sila gikan sa yuta, tungod kay maayo kining adlawa sa Jezreel.
