< Hosea 1 >

1 The word of the Lord that was maad to Osee, the sone of Bery, in the daies of Osie, Joathan, Achas, Ezechie, kingis of Juda, and in the daies of Jeroboam, sone of Joas, the kyng of Israel.
Okwu Onyenwe anyị nke bịakwutere Hosiya nwa Beiri nʼoge Uzaya, na Jotam, na Ehaz, na Hezekaya, bụ ndị eze Juda, na nʼoge Jeroboam nwa Jehoash bụ eze nʼIzrel.
2 The bigynnyng of the spekyng to the Lord in Osee. And the Lord seide to Osee, Go thou, take to thee a wijf of fornycaciouns, and make to thee sones of fornycaciouns, for the lond doynge fornicacioun schal do fornicacioun fro the Lord.
Na mmalite okwu Onyenwe anyị site nʼọnụ Hosiya, Onyenwe anyị gwara Hosiya sị, “Gaa lụtara onwe gị nwanyị na-akwa iko na ụmụ amụtara nʼịkwa iko, nʼihi na dịka nwanyị alụrụ alụ nʼakwa iko, ala a na-akwa iko nke ukwu site nʼịgbahapụ Onyenwe anyị.”
3 And he yede, and took Gomer, the douyter of Debelaym; and sche conseyuede, and childide a sone to hym.
Ya mere, ọ gara lụọ Goma nwa Diblaim, onye tụụrụ ime mụọra ya nwa nwoke.
4 And the Lord seide to hym, Clepe thou the name of hym Jesrael; for yit a litil and Y schal visite the blood of Jesrael on the hous of Hieu, and Y schal make to reste the rewme of the hous of Israel.
Onyenwe anyị gwara ya, “Aha ị ga-agụ nwantakịrị ahụ bụ Jezril. Nʼihi na tupu nwa oge nta agafee, aga m ata ezinaụlọ Jehu ahụhụ nʼihi ọbara ọ wụsiri na Jezril. Aga m eme ka alaeze nke ụlọ Izrel kwụsị.
5 And in that dai Y schal al to-breke the bowe of Israel in the valei of Jesrael.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ, aga m agbaji ụta Izrel na Ndagwurugwu Jezril.”
6 And sche conseyuede yit, and childide a douyter. And the Lord seide to hym, Clepe thou the name of hir With out merci, for Y schal no more leye to, for to haue merci on the hous of Israel, but bi foryetyng Y schal foryete hem.
Emesịa, Goma tụụrụ ime ọzọ, mụta nwa nwanyị. Ọ gwara ya, “Aha ị ga-agụ ya bụ Lo-Ruhama, nʼihi na agaghị m enwekwa obi ebere ọzọ nʼahụ ụlọ Izrel, ịgbaghara ha mmehie ha.
7 And Y schal haue merci on the hous of Juda, and Y schal saue hem in her Lord God; and Y schal not saue hem in bowe, and swerd, and batel, and in horsis, and in horse men, ether kniytis.
Ma aga m enwe obi ebere nʼahụ ụlọ Juda. Mụ onwe m ga-azọpụta ha site na Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke ha. Agaghị m eji ngwa agha ọbụla, dịka ụta maọbụ mma agha maọbụ ike ibu agha maọbụ ịnyịnya maọbụ ndị na-agba ịnyịnya zọpụta ha.”
8 And he wenyde hir that was With out merci. And sche conseyuede, and childide a sone to hym.
Mgbe ọ jụrụ Lo-Ruhama ara, ọ tụụrụ ime ọzọ, mụọ nwa nwoke.
9 And he seide, Clepe thou his name Not my puple, for ye schulen not be my puple, and Y schal not be youre God.
Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Kpọọ aha ya Lo-ammi, nke pụtara unu abụghị ndị m, nʼihi na unu abụghị ndị nke m, mụ onwe m abụkwaghị Chineke unu.
10 And the noumbre of the sones of Israel schal be as grauel of the see, which grauel is with out mesure, and it schal not be noumbrid; and it schal be in the place, where it schal be seid to hem, Ye ben not my puple; it schal be seid to hem, Ye ben the sones of God lyuynge.
“Ma ọnụọgụgụ ụmụ Izrel ga-adị ka aja dị nʼọnụ oke osimiri nke a na-apụghị ịgụta ọnụ maọbụ tụọ nʼihe ọtụtụ. Nʼebe ahụ a nọ sị ha, ‘Unu abụghị ndị m,’ nʼebe ahụ ka a ga-anọ sịkwa ha, ‘Ụmụ Chineke dị ndụ ka unu bụ.’
11 And the sones of Juda and the sones of Israel schulen be gaderid togidere, and thei schulen sette oon heed to hem silf, and thei schulen stie fro erthe, for the dai of Jesrael is greet.
A ga-achịkọtakwa ndị Juda na ndị Izrel ọnụ. Ha ga-ahọpụtakwara onwe ha otu onyeisi, si nʼala ahụ rigopụta, nʼihi ihe ukwu ka ụbọchị Jezril ga-abụ.
