Hosea 14
1 [You people of] Israel, return to Yahweh our God. You are being punished because of the sins which you have committed.
Israel, agsublika kenni Yahweh a Diosmo, ta natnagka gapu kadagiti basbasolmo.
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].
Iyebkasyo ti panagbabawiyo kadagiti basbasolyo ket agsublikayo kenni Yahweh. Ibagayo kenkuana, “Pakawanennakami kadagiti amin a basbasolmi ken awatennakami nga addaan ti pabor, tapno maidatonmi kenka ti pammadayawmi, dagiti sasao ken dagiti kantami a pagdayaw.
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.”
Saannakaminto nga isalakan ti Asiria; saankaminto nga agsakay kadagiti kabalio tapno makigubat. Saanminton nga ibaga ti aramid dagiti imami, 'Dakayo dagiti diosmi,' ta sika ti pakasarakan dagiti ulila iti asi.”
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.
”Paimbagekto ida no agsublida kaniak kalpasan a tinallikodandak; ayatekto ida a siwayawaya, ta bimmaawen ti pungtotko iti Israel.
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].
Maiyarigakto iti linnaaw iti Israel; agsabongto a kas iti lirio ken agramutto a kas iti kayo a sedro iti Libano.
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.
Rumangpayanto dagiti sangana; ti kinapintasna ket kaslanto kadagiti kayo ti olibo, ken ti banglona ket kas kadagiti sedro iti Libano.
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.
Agsublinto dagiti tattao nga agnaed iti salinongna; lumangtodanto a kas iti trigo ken agsabongda a kas kadagiti pinuon ti ubas. Maiyarigto ti kinalatakna iti arak ti Libano.
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.”
Ibaganto ti Efraim, 'Ania pay la ti aramidek kadagiti didiosen?' Sungbatak ken aywanakto isuna. Maiyarigak iti saleng a kanayon a nalangto dagiti bulbulongna; siak ti pagtataudan dagiti bungayo.”
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.
Siasino ti masirib a makaawat kadagitoy a banbanag? Siasino ti makaaawat kadagitoy tapno maammoanna dagitoy? Ta nalinteg dagiti wagas ni Yahweh, dagitoy ket suroten dagiti nalinteg, ngem maitibkolto kadagitoy dagiti nasukir.
