Hosea 14
1 Israel, be thou conuertid to thi Lord God, for thou fellist doun in thi wickidnesse.
Isalaele, zongela Yawe, Nzambe na yo, pamba te ezali masumu na yo nde ekweyisaki yo.
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.
Bobongisa maloba na bino mpe bozonga epai na Yawe; boloba na Ye: « Limbisa mabe na biso nyonso, yamba biso na mawa na Yo mpo ete tobonzela yo maloba ya bibebu na biso, na esika ya bangombe.
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.
Asiri akokoka kobikisa biso te; tokomata na mpunda ya bitumba te mpe tokoloba lisusu te na misala ya maboko na biso: ‹ Bozali banzambe na biso, › pamba te ezali Yo, Yawe, nde oyokelaka mwana etike mawa. »
4 Y schal make hool the sorewis of hem; Y schal loue hem wilfuli, for my strong veniaunce is turned awei fro hem.
Nakobikisa bango na mabe na bango mpe nakolinga bango na motema moko, pamba te kanda na Ngai elongwe kati na bango.
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;
Nakozala lokola londende mpo na Isalaele; akobimisa fololo lokola lisi, akopika misisa lokola nzete ya sedele ya Libani.
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.
Bitape na ye ekokende mosika, akozala na lokumu lokola nzete ya olive, mpe malasi na ye ekozala lokola malasi ya nzete ya sedele ya Libani.
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.
Bato bakozongela kovanda na se ya elilingi na ye, bakokola malamu lokola ble, bakobimisa fololo lokola elanga ya vino kitoko ya Libani.
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.
Efrayimi akoloba: « Banzambe ya bikeko ezali lisusu na tina nini epai na Ngai? » Ngai nakoyanola ye mpe nakosunga ye. Nazali lokola nzete ya sipele ya mobesu, Ngai nde nasalaka ete obota mbuma.
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.
Nani azali na bwanya mpo na kososola makambo oyo? Nani azali na mayele mingi mpo na koyeba yango? Pamba te banzela ya Yawe ezalaka alima: bato ya sembo bakolanda yango, kasi batomboki bakobeta mabaku na nzela yango.
