< Hosea 2 >
1 [At that time, ] you will say to your fellow-Israeli men, “[You are] God’s people,” and [you will say] to your fellow-Israeli women, “You are ones whom God loves.”
Hagi kagra kafuhe'inkura, Ami'e, Nagri vahere nehunka, kasarahehe'inkura Ruhama, navesinentomo'e, hunka hugahane.
2 [Yahweh also said to me], “I want you to accuse the Israeli people. [It is as though] [MET] this nation is your mother, but this nation is [no longer as though it is] [MET] my wife, and it is [no longer as though] [MET] I am its husband. Tell the Israeli people that they must stop [acting like] a prostitute [by worshiping other gods]; they must stop showing by their behavior that they (are unfaithful to/have abandoned) [me] [MET].
Mofavrenimota neramarerana hankavetita nanekea asaminkeno, monko ane'mo'zama zamavugosama eri ruzahu ruzahu'ma nehu'za, ami'mo'ma amate'ma hu kukenama nentaniza zana osino. Na'ankure agra nagri ara omanige'na, nagra agri vea omani'noe.
3 If they do not do that, I will not give them [food and] clothes [as a husband should give to his wife]; I will take away those things, and I will cause their nation to become [as deserted] as it was on the day that I [brought their ancestors out of Egypt and caused them to become a nation] [MET]. I will cause their country to be like [SIM] a desert; there will be no rain to water the ground [MET].
Ana'ma osniana mika kukena'a ahena hate atranenkeno, nerera'ma kasentegeno kukena osu avapama mani'nea kna huno avapa manigahie. Ana hute'na hagage kokampi atreankna hu'na atranenkeno tinku huno frigahie.
4 I will not pity the people, because they have [abandoned me] as [MET] prostitutes abandon their husbands.
Hagi Nagra mofavre'aramina nasunkura huozmantegahue. Na'ankure agra monkote huno vano nehuno, kase zmante'nea mofavrerami mani'naze.
5 Their parents are like prostitutes [MET]: they have been unfaithful [to me], and they have done [very] disgraceful things. They said, ‘We will run to [our idols/gods] who love us; [they are the ones] who give us food and water and wool and linen and [olive] oil, and [wine to] drink.’
Hagi nezmarera'a agaze'a omane monko a'kino, agra tusi agaze avu'avaza huno amu'enena hu'ne. Na'ankure agra ana a'mo'a huno, nagrama navesinentoa vene'neramimo'zama ne'zama, tima, sipisipi azokate kukenama, efeke kukenama, olivi masavema, wainima hu'za nami'naza vene'neramina zamavaririgahue huno hu'ne.
6 So [it will be as though] [MET] I am blocking their road with thornbushes, and putting put a wall around them so that they do not know which way to go.
E'ina hu'negu nagra ave'ave trazanteti kama vanoma nehia kana asevazintegahue. Ana nehu'na have kegina hu'na kama vano nehia kana rehiza hanugeno, kama vanoma hu'zankura hakegahie.
7 They will run to their idols/gods that [they think] love them, but they will not find them. They will search for their false gods, but they will not find them. Then they will say, ‘[Perhaps] we should return to [Yahweh], whom we worshiped previously [MET], because things were better for us then than they are now.’
Hagi ana a'mo'ma agrama avesi nezmantea vene'neramima zamarotago huno'ma vaniana ome zamaze'origahie. Hagi ana vene'neraminkura hakeno vano hugahianagi, zamageno eri forera osugahie.

8 But they do not realize that I, [Yahweh], am the one who gave them grain and wine and [olive] oil; I am the one who gave them silver and gold which they used to worship Baal.
Hagi rama'a witima, kasefa wainima, olivi masavema, silvama golima hu'na ami'noa zankura nagriku nami'ne huno agesa ontahino, erino Bali havi anumza ami'ne.
9 Therefore I will return and take my grain and grapes from them when they are ripe. I will take from them the wool and linen that I gave to them [to make their clothes] [MTY].
E'ina hu'negu hozama vasage knarera nagra witini'a eneri'na, zafa ragama rente knarera wainini'a erigahue. Ana hukna hu'na kukenama huno avufgama refite'nogu'ma sipisipi azokate kukenane efeke zaza kukenanema ami'noana ete'na erigahue.
10 I will show those false gods/idols that what my people are doing is disgusting [MET], and no one will be able to hinder me from [punishing them].
Nagra menina miko kukena'a hate atranena agri'ma avesima nentaza vahe zamavuga avufga avapako otigahiankino, mago'moe huno nagri nazampintira agura ovazigahie.
11 I will cause their religious celebrations to cease, the festivals that they celebrate every year and at every new moon and on their (Sabbath days/weekly days of rest). I will cause all their religious celebrations to cease.
Hagi ne'zama kreno neneno musema nehia zane, kasefa ikantero mago mago Sabati knarero, nezama kreno neneno musema nehia zana miko eri atregahue.
12 I will destroy [all] their grapevines and fig trees, which they said were what their [idols/gods] who loved them paid them for worshiping those idols. I will cause those places to become a desert, and wild animals will eat the fruit [that remains].
Hagi navesima nenantaza vahe'mo'za mizani'a nami'naze huno'ma nehia waini nofitamine, fiki zafanena eri haviza hanugeno anampina zafa avono fore hinkeno afi zagagafamo'zage ana zafa ragaramina negahaze.
13 I will punish my people for [all] the times that they burned incense to [honor] the idols of Baal. They decorated themselves with rings and jewelry, and they went to worship those [false gods/idols] that [they thought] [IRO] loved them, but they abandoned/forgot me! [That is what I], Yahweh, say.
Hagi Bali havi anumzantaminte'ma mnanentake'za insensima kremana vunezmantea zanku, Nagra knazana ami'na azeri haviza hugahue. Ana nehuno agesafi rinia eri renenteno, marerisa avasese'za eri nentanino avesima nezmantea vene'nerami nezmavaririno Nagrikura agenekanie.
14 But listen! [Some day] I will persuade my people [to worship me again]; I will lead them [out] into the desert and speak kindly to them [there].
E'ina hu'negu Nagra ami'mi hu'na hagage kopi ome antete'na, akohena fru nanekea asami'na nagrarega avrentegahue.
15 I will give their vineyards [back] to them, and I will cause Achor Valley, [which means ‘valley of trouble'], to become a valley where they will confidently expect [me to do good things for them]. They will (respond to/want to please) me there like they did long ago, when I freed them from [being slaves in] Egypt.
Hagi anantega waini hoza'a nemi'na, Hazenke Agupoe hu'zama nehaza agupo eri rukrahe ha'nena, amuha'ma hu'zamofo kaha megahie. Hagi ana a'mo'ma mofa'ma mani'nege'nama, Isipiti'ma avre'na ati'neramugeno zagamema hu'neaza huno zagamera hugahie.
16 At that time, they will say to me, ‘[It is as though] [MET] you are our husband.’ They will not say that I am their [master, like they considered that] Baal [was].
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Ana knarera, Nagrikura nenave'e hunka nehunka, kvani'a mani'ne hunka Bali havi anumzankura osugahane.
17 I will not allow them to speak [MTY] the names of Baal; they will never use those names again.
Na'ankure Nagra Bali havi anumzamofo agiramima nehea zana agipintira eri atrenugeno, ana zamagiramina neheno monora huontegahie.
18 At that time [it will be as though] I will make an agreement with [all] the wild animals and birds, and [even with] the little animals that scurry across the ground, so that they will never harm my people [again]. And I will remove from their nation all the weapons [for fighting] battles, [like] swords and bows [and arrows]. The result will be that my people will live peacefully and safely, and will not be afraid.
Hagi ana knarera zagagafama, namaramima, mopa agofetu'ma zamasaguregati'ma regrarohe'za vanoma nehaza zagaraminena, huhagerafi huvempage hugahue. Ana nehu'na maka atirami'ne, bainati kazinknone, maka ha'zanena ana mopafintira eri atre'nuge'za korora osu knare hu'za manigahaze.
19 I will cause them to be [as though they are] [MET] my bride forever. I will be righteous and fair/just; I will faithfully love them and be kind to them.
Nagra a' kavra'nena Nagri a' mani vava hugahane. Nagra a'ma kavresuana, fatgo avu'ava zanteti'ene fatgoma huno refkoma hu zanteti'ene avesima anteno knare avu'ava'ma hunte zanteti'ene nasunku zanteti'ene,
20 I will not abandon them, and they will realize [that I] Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do.]
hugahue hu'nama hu'noa zama amage ante'na hu navu'nava zantetiki huna ara kavra'nena, Nagrikura Ra Anumzane hunka kenka antahinka hugahane.
21 At that time, [when they request me to do things for them], [I will do those things]. When they request clouds and rain to fall on their land, I will speak to the clouds, and rain will fall on the earth,
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Ana knarera Nagra hanugeno, monamo'a kora atrenigeno mopafina neranigeno,
22 and grain will grow, and the vineyards and the olive trees will grow in Jezreel [Valley].
mopamo'a witine, wainine olivi rgaramina Jesrili agupofina rentegahie.
23 [At that time], I will take care of the Israeli people [like a farmer plants and takes care of his crops] [MET]. I will love those people that I previously said were ones I did not love, and I previously said, ‘You are not my people,’ and [then] they will say to me, ‘You are our God.’”
Hagi avimzama hankreankna hu'na ana ara ana mopafi nehankre'na, nasunkura Huogantegahue hu'nama hu'noa agia eri rukrahe hu'na, Nasunku Hugantegahue nehu'na, Nagri vahera omani'naze hu'noa agia ete eri rukrahe hu'na, Nagri vahere hanuge'za, ete zamagra Nagrikura tagri Anumzane hu'za hugahaze.
