Hosea 14
1 [You people of] Israel, return to Yahweh our God. You are being punished because of the sins which you have committed.
Isala: ili dunu! Dilia Hina Godema bu sinidigima! Dilia da wadela: le hamoiba: le, didigabone dafai dagoi.
2 So now return to Yahweh and say [MTY] this to him: “Forgive us for all the sins that we have committed, and kindly accept (us/our sacrifices) in order that we may thank/praise you [IDM].
Hina Godema sinidigima! Amola amo sia: ne gadosa gobele iasu defele Ema ima, amane, “Ninia wadela: i hou huluane gogolema: ne olofoma amola ninia sia: ne gadosu nabima! Amalu ninia ilegele sia: i defele, ninia da Dima nodomu.
3 [We admit that] Assyria will not save us, and our war horses will not save us, either. We will never again say, ‘You are our gods’ to [the idols that] we [SYN] have made. You are the one who acts mercifully to orphans.”
Asilia da nini gaga: mu hame dawa: , amola gegesu hosi da nini gaga: mu gogolesa. Ninia bu ninia loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima ‘Godedafa’ dio hame asulimu. Hina Gode! Di da dunu amo da fidisu dunu eno hame gala, ilima gogolema: ne olofosu imunusa: dawa:”
4 [Yahweh says, “If they say that to me, ] I will forgive them for having (turned away from/abandoned) me, and I will love them with all my inner being, because I [PRS] will have stopped being angry with them.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da Na fi dunu Nama bu hiougia guda: mu. Na da Na dogo huluane amoga ilima asigimu. Na da ilima bu hame ougimu.
5 I will be to the people of Israel like dew [that refreshes the soil]. When I do that, they will [become as delightful as] [MET] lilies are when they are blooming. [No one will be able to conquer them; ] they will be [as unmovable as] [SIM] the roots [of cedar trees].
Na da gibu amo da hafoga: i soge fidibi defele, Na fi dunu fidimu. Ilia da mosoi agoane sogea falegalesimu. Ilia da Lebanone ifa defele, ifa difi modosa: i agoane ba: mu.
6 [Their good influence will spread] like [MET] the branches of a tree. They will be like [SIM] beautiful olive trees, and [they will be as delightful as] [SIM] the aroma of the cedar [trees in] Lebanon.
Ilia da gaheabolo lula heda: su defele, gaheabolo esalusu ba: mu. Amola ilia da olife ifa defele, nina: hamoi dagoi ba: mu. Ilia da Lebanone dolo ifa defele, gabusiga: noga: i nabimu.
7 People will [come to them to be protected] [like people are protected from the hot sun by being] [MET] in the shade [of a tree]. They [will (flourish/be strong) like] [SIM] grain that grows well. They will [be successful like] a vineyard [in which grapes grow abundantly]. They will become as famous/well-known as [SIM] the wines from Lebanon.
Ilia da bu Na Gaga: su hou amoha esalumu. Ilia da ifabi noga: idafa defele, noga: le heda: mu. Ilia da waini sagai defele, fage bagohame legemu. Dunu da Lebanone waini hano amoma nodosa, amo defele fifi asi gala da Na fi dunuma nodomu.
8 [You people of] Israel, do not [RHQ] have anything more to do with idols; if you [get rid of your idols], I will answer your [prayers] and take care of you. I am like [MET] a strong/green pine tree, and your blessings come from me.”
Isala: ili dunu da bu loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima hame dawa: mu. Na da dialui ifa defele, ili ougigala: mu. Na da ilia hahawane dogolegele hou huluane ea bai gala.”
9 Those who are wise will understand the things [about which I have written]. Those who think well will pay careful attention to them. The things that Yahweh wants us to do [MET] are right; righteous people will conduct their lives adhering to them. But those who rebel against Yahweh will be ruined.
Bagade dawa: su dunu da amo dedena sa: i sia: noga: le dawa: mu da defea. Amola ilia da amo sia: ilia dogo ganodini ligisimu da defea. Hina Gode Ea hou huluane da moloidafa. Amola moloi dunu da amoga fa: no bobogebeba: le, esalusu ba: lala. Be wadela: i hamosu dunu da Gode Ea hou higabeba: le, didigabone dafasa. Sia: ama dagoi
