< Hosea 14 >

1 Israel, be thou conuertid to thi Lord God, for thou fellist doun in thi wickidnesse.
Wee Isiraeli-rĩ, cookerera Jehova Ngai waku. Mehia maku nĩmo makũgũithĩtie!
2 Take ye wordis with you, and be ye conuertid to the Lord; and seie ye to hym, Do thou awei al wickidnesse, and take thou good; and we schulen yelde the caluys of oure lippis.
Thiĩ na ciugo ũcookerere Jehova, ũmwĩre atĩrĩ, “Tũrekere mehia maitũ mothe, na ũtwamũkĩre na wega waku, nĩguo tũhote gũkũrutĩra igongona rĩa gũkũgooca na mĩromo iitũ.
3 Assur schal not saue vs, we schulen not stie on hors; and we schulen no more seie, Oure goddis ben the werkis of oure hondis; for thou schalt haue merci on that modirles child, which is in thee.
Ashuri ndangĩhota gũtũhonokia; tũtikũhaica mbarathi cia ita. Tũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ tũgaacooka gwĩta kĩrĩa tũthondekete na moko maitũ ‘ngai ciitũ,’ nĩgũkorwo thĩinĩ waku ciana cia ngoriai nĩciiguagĩrwo tha.”
4 Y schal make hool the sorewis of hem; Y schal loue hem wilfuli, for my strong veniaunce is turned awei fro hem.
“Nĩngamahonia kũrĩa maanoora njĩra, na ndĩmende ndĩyendeire; nĩgũkorwo marakara makwa nĩmamehereire.
5 Y schal be as a dew, and Israel schal buriowne as a lilie. And the root therof schal breke out as of the Liban;
Ngaatuĩka ta ime harĩ Isiraeli; nake akaarirũka ta gĩtoka. Agaikũrũkia mĩri yake ehaande o ta mĩtarakwa ya Lebanoni.
6 the braunchis therof schulen go. And the glorye therof schal be as an olyue tree, and the odour therof schal be as of the Liban.
Thuuna ciake nĩigakũra. Ũthaka wake ũgaatuĩka ta wa mũtĩ wa mũtamaiyũ, naguo mũtararĩko wake ũtuĩke ta mũtarakwa wa Lebanoni.
7 Thei schulen be conuertid, and sitte in the schadewe of hym; thei schulen lyue bi wheete, and schulen buriowne as a vyne. The memorial therof schal be as the wyne of Liban.
Andũ nĩmagatũũra rĩngĩ kĩĩruru-inĩ gĩake. Nake akaarura ta ngano. Akaarirũka ta mũthabibũ, nayo ngumo yake ĩtuĩke ta ya ndibei ya kuuma Lebanoni.
8 Effraym, what schulen idols do more to me? Y schal here him, and Y schal dresse him as a greene fir tree. Thi fruit is foundun of me.
Wee Efiraimu, ndĩ na ũhoro ũngĩ ũrĩkũ na mĩhianano ya kũhooywo? Nĩngamũcookeria ũhoro na ndĩmũmenyerere. Haana ta mũkarakaba mũruru; gũciara gwaku kuumaga harĩ niĩ.”
9 Who is wijs, and schal vndurstonde these thingis? who is vndurstondyng, and schal kunne these thingis? For the weies of the Lord ben riytful, and iust men schulen go in tho; but trespassours schulen falle in tho.
Nũũ mũũgĩ? Ũcio nĩakamenya maũndũ macio. Nũũ ũkũũranaga maũndũ? Ũcio nĩakamamenya. Njĩra cia Jehova nĩ njagĩrĩru; arĩa athingu nĩcio mathiiagĩra, no arĩa aremi mahĩngagwo marĩ o njĩra-inĩ icio.
