Hosea 1
1 This is the word of Yahweh that came to Hosea son of Beeri in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel.
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobaki na nzela ya Oze, mwana mobali ya Beri, tango Oziasi, Yotami, Akazi mpe Ezekiasi bazalaki bakonzi ya Yuda, mpe tango Jeroboami, mwana mobali ya Joasi, azalaki mokonzi ya Isalaele:
2 When Yahweh spoke at first through Hosea, he said to him, “Go, take for yourself a wife who is a prostitute. She will have children who are the result of her prostitution. For the land is committing great prostitution by forsaking Yahweh.”
Tango Yawe abandaki koloba na nzela ya mosakoli Oze, Yawe ayebisaki ye: — Kende, linga mwasi oyo asalaka kindumba mpe bota na ye bana makangu, pamba te mokili emikotisi na kindumba mpe epesi Yawe mokongo.
3 So Hosea went and married Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.
Boye, Oze akendeki kolinga Gomeri, mwana mwasi ya Dibilayimi. Gomeri akomaki na zemi mpe abotelaki ye mwana mobali.
4 Yahweh said to Hosea, “Call his name Jezreel. For in a little while I will punish the house of Jehu for the bloodshed at Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel.
Yawe alobaki na ye: — Pesa ye kombo Jizireyeli, pamba te etikali moke napesa libota ya Jewu etumbu mpo na makila ya bato oyo asopaki na Jizireyeli, mpe nakosukisa bokonzi, na libota ya Isalaele.
5 It will happen on the day that I break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel.”
Na mokolo wana, nakobuka tolotolo ya Isalaele kati na lubwaku ya Jizireyeli.
6 Gomer conceived again and bore a daughter. Then Yahweh said to Hosea, “Call her name Lo-Ruhamah, for I will no longer have mercy on the house of Israel, that I should forgive them at all.
Gomeri akomaki lisusu na zemi mpe abotaki mwana mwasi. Yawe alobaki na Oze: — Pesa ye kombo Lo-Rukama, pamba te nakotalisa lisusu bolingo na Ngai te epai ya libota ya Isalaele mpe nakolimbisa bango te.
7 Yet I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and I will save them by myself, Yahweh their God. I will not save them by bow, sword, battle, horses, or horsemen.”
Kasi nakotalisa bolamu na Ngai epai ya libota ya Yuda mpe nakobikisa bango. Ngai moko Yawe, Nzambe na bango, nde nakosala bongo; ekozala na nguya ya tolotolo te, ya mopanga te, ya bitumba te, ya bampunda te to mpe ya bashar te.
8 Now after Gomer had weaned Lo-Ruhamah, she conceived and bore another son.
Tango Gomeri alongolaki Lo-Rukama na mabele, Gomeri akomaki lisusu na zemi mpe abotaki mwana mobali.
9 Then Yahweh said, “Call his name Lo-Ammi, for you are not my people, and I am not your God.
Yawe alobaki: — Pesa ye kombo Lo-Ami, pamba te bozali bato na Ngai te, mpe Ngai nazali Nzambe na bino te.
10 Yet the number of the people of Israel will be like the sand of the seashore, which cannot be measured or counted. It will be that where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,' it will be said to them, 'You are people of the living God.'
Nzokande, bana ya Isalaele bakozala ebele lokola zelo ya ebale monene, oyo bakoki komeka to kotanga te; kaka na esika oyo balobaki na bango: « Bozali bato na ngai te, » bakokoma kobenga bango « bana na Nzambe na bomoi. »
11 The people of Judah and the people of Israel will be gathered together. They will appoint one leader for themselves, and they will go up from the land, for great will be the day of Jezreel.
Bongo, bato ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele bakozonga lisusu kozala ekolo moko, bakopona mokonzi moko kaka mpe bakobima na mokili ya bowumbu, pamba te mokolo ya Jizireyeli ekozala mokolo monene.
