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.
Pa inge kas su LEUM GOD El sang nu sel Hosea, wen natul Beeri, ke pacl Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz ac Hezekiah elos tokosra lun Judah, ac Jeroboam, wen natul Jehoash, el tokosra lun 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).”
Ke pacl se emeet LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sin Israel ke oalul Hosea, El fahk nu sel Hosea, “Som payukyak. Mutan kiom an ac fah mutan na aklalfon se, ac tulik nutumtal ac fah oana el. In ouiya sacna, mwet luk uh elos aklalfonyeyu ac sisyula.”
3 So I married Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim. She became pregnant and gave birth to my son.
Na Hosea el payukyak sin mutan se pangpang Gomer, acn natul Diblaim. Tukun wen se oemeet natultal isusla.
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,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Hosea, “Sang inel Jezreel, mweyen ac tia paht, nga ac kai fwilin tulik natul Tokosra Jehu ke sripen akmas ma el orala ke Infahlfal Jezreel. Nga fah oru tuh wangin tulik natul Jehu in tokosrala nwe tok.
5 by destroying the power [MTY] of [the army of] Israel in Jezreel Valley.”
Ac nga fah kunausla mwe mweun lun Israel in pacl sacn ke Infahlfal 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].
Tulik se akluo natul Gomer, tulik mutan se. LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Hosea, “Sang inel Lo-ruhama mweyen nga ac tia sifil pakomuta mwet Israel, ku nunak munas nu selos.
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].”
Tusruktu, nga fah pakomuta mwet Judah. Nga, LEUM GOD lalos, fah molelosla, tusruk nga ac tia oru ke inkanek in mweun — tia ke cutlass ku ke mwe pisr ac sukan pisr, ku ke horse ac mwet kasrusr fin horse.”
8 After Gomer had (weaned/stopped breast-feeding) Lo-ruhamah, she became pregnant again, and she gave birth to another son.
Tukun Gomer el liktitela acn natul, el sifilpa pitutuyak ac oswela sie wen.
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.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Hosea, “Sang inel Lo-ammi mweyen mwet Israel elos tia mwet luk, ac nga tia God lalos.”
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.’
Pisen mwet Israel ac fah oana puk weacn uh, su tia ku in oekyukla ku srikeyuki. Inge God El fahk nu selos, “Kowos tia mwet luk,” tusruktu in pacl fahsru uh, El ac fah fahk nu selos, “Kowos pa tulik nutin God moul.”
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].”
Mwet Judah ac mwet Israel ac fah sifil folokeni ac ma sefannala. Elos ac fah sulela mwet kol sefanna lalos, ac elos fah puseni ac kapkapak in facl selos. Aok, len lal Jezreel fah sie len na pwengpeng.
