< Hosea 2 >
1 'Say ye to your brethren — Ammi, And to your sisters — Ruhamah.
Hicheni teng chuleh, nasopipa chu Ami- ‘Kamite’ chule nasopinu chu-Rahamah- ‘Kangailut khat’ nati ding ahi.
2 Plead ye with your mother — plead, (For she [is] not My wife, and I [am] not her husband, ) And she turneth her whoredoms from before her, And her adulteries from between her breasts,
Nahingnu chu dondauvin, Dondauvin hitobang numei hi kaji ahipoi, keijong amadin aji kahipoi, ajon maiput hi kheldohhen, anoiteni kaha ajon na thangnam jong chu sutheng hen.
3 Lest I strip her naked. And have set her up as [in] the day of her birth, And have made her as a wilderness, And have set her as a dry land, And have put her to death with thirst.
Achuti louva ahile keiman avon jouse kahodoh’a akeoseh’a kaum sah ding ahi.
4 And her sons I do not pity, For sons of whoredoms [are] they,
Achate jouse jong kangailut louhel ding ahi, ajeh chu ahung kigil’uva kon’a notia hung kigil ahitauve
5 For gone a-whoring hath their mother, Acted shamefully hath their conceiver, For she hath said, I go after my lovers, Those giving my bread and my water, My wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.
Ahingnu-u jong jachatna neilouva notia kijoh ahin, anaovop’a jong chu jumle ja helouva chon ahi.
6 Therefore, lo, I am hedging up thy way with thorns, And I have made for her a wall, And her paths she doth not find.
Amanun aseijin, eingailu midang ho koma lhaitange, kanehding an, kadonding twi eipeho chule kasilding samul le tupat ponnem eipeho koma chetange ati.
7 And she hath pursued her lovers, And she doth not overtake them, And hath sought them, and doth not find, And she hath said: I go, and I turn back unto My first husband, For — better to me then than now.
Angailu ho kom’a lhai jongle, anungu aphah jou lou ding ahitai, amaho chu holle le jongle mujong amujou lou ding ahitai. Chule amanun jong asei ding, tun chengting kaji masapa henga kilekit tange, ajeh chu tulai kaumchan sangin chulaija kaumchan anomjoi.
8 And she knew not that I had given to her, The corn, and the new wine, and the oil. Yea, silver I did multiply to her, And the gold they prepared for Baal.
Hiche numeinu hin kana thilpeh ho anei jouse, sana, dangka, lengpiwi thah, olive thao, kathilpeh ho jouse Baal doi apegam tan ahi.
9 Therefore do I turn back, And I have taken My corn in its season, And My new wine in its appointed time, And I have taken away My wool and My flax, covering her nakedness.
Ahinlah kachang jong a atphat le kakilelah kit ding, lengpi twi thah jouse jong, kakilelah ding ahi. Asagoh keu hupna dinga kanapeh samul ponsil le tupat ponnem jong kanung lah kit ding ahi.
10 And now do I reveal her dishonour before the eyes of her lovers, And none doth deliver her out of My hand.
Tua hi akideipi ho mitmu changtaha, ajamo kahodohpeh ding ahi, ahin kakhut’a kona koiman amanu hi eichulhah jou lou ding ahi.
11 And I have caused to cease all her joy, Her festival, her new moon, and her sabbath, Even all her appointed times,
Agolnop kut hihenlang, a lhathah kut hihenlang, akumlhun kut hijongleh kasuhbei ding ahi.
12 And made desolate her vine and her fig-tree, Of which she said, A gift they [are] to me, That my lovers have given to me, And I have made them for a forest, And consumed them hath a beast of the field.
Alengpi gui jouse kavohsetna, chule atheichang phung jouse jong kavoh heo ding ahi.
13 And I have charged on her the days of the Baalim, To whom she maketh perfume, And putteth on her ring and her ornament, And goeth after her lovers, And Me forgat — an affirmation of Jehovah.
Baal doi masanga gimnamtwi ahalna ho kasuhset peh’a chule a sana jempah chengsea akivonna, adongma akideipi hotoh kei suhmilna dinga akijepna jeh'a talen kapeh ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
14 Therefore, lo, I am enticing her, And have caused her to go to the wilderness, And I have spoken unto her heart,
Ahin keiman hichenu hi kanung jollhah kitna, gamthip noiya kapui mang ding, chule awnem heuva kaki houlimpi ding ahi.
15 And given to her her vineyards from thence, And the valley of Achor for an opening of hope, And she hath responded there as in the days of her youth, And as in the day of her coming up out of the land of Egypt.
Alengpi leiya kahin lepui kitna, Achor phaicham jong kinepna kotpi phung kasosah ding, hikoma chu amanun jong anungah lai banga adonbutna, Egypt gam'a ahung potdoh til banga eidonbut ding ahi.
16 And it hath come to pass, in that day, An affirmation of Jehovah, Thou dost call Me — My husband, And dost not call Me any more — My lord.
Hiche nikho chu ahunglhun nile Pakaiyin aseiye, Ka Pakai tilouva “Kajipa tia neikou ding ahi”.
17 And I have turned aside the names of the lords from her mouth, And they are not remembered any more by their name.
O Israel, namuha kona Baal min tamtah kasuh manga chule naminphah kittahlou ding ahi chule
18 And I have made to them a covenant in that day, with the beast of the field, And with the fowl of the heavens, And the creeping thing of the ground, And bow, and sword, and war I break from off the land, And have caused them to lie down confidently.
Hiche nikho chule gam'a gamsa jouse le chunga leng vacha jouse toh kitepna khat kasema, thalpi kasuh beija chemjam kalensah lou ding, chuteng nakichat tahlou dingu, cham le lungmonga naimut dingu ahi.
19 And I have betrothed thee to Me to the age, And betrothed thee to Me in righteousness, And in judgment, and kindness, and mercies,
Keiman atonsot’a kajinua kasem ding nahitai, chutengle Chondihna le thutah kavetsah ding nahi.
20 And betrothed thee to Me in faithfulness, And thou hast known Jehovah.
Hitia chu ken kitahna neitah-a jia kanei ding nahin, nangin jong Pakai chu nahetdoh ding ahiye.
21 And it hath come to pass in that day, I answer — an affirmation of Jehovah, I answer the heavens, and they answer the earth.
Hicheni chule, keiman nadonbut inge, Tin Pakaiyin aseiye. “Hiche nikho tengleh keiman van mun ho jouse kahouva thu kasei ding, amahon jong, van mun jousen jong leiset jaha gojuh puma thu asei diu ahi.
22 And the earth doth answer the corn, And the new wine, and the oil, And they answer Jezreel.
Chuteng leiset in jong awgin puma penga asapma adonbutna, chang, lengpitwi, chule olive thaovin jong adonbut ding, Jezeel jaha thu aseidiu ahi.
23 And I have sowed her to Me in the land, And I have pitied Lo-Ruhamah, And I have said to Lo-Ammi, My people thou [art], and it saith, My God!'
Hiche phatteng chule keiman Israel dinga muchi katu ding, keima dinga kakhansah ding. Keiman ‘kangailupoi’ katiho koma ngailutna kavetsah ding, chule kami nahitapouve tia kaseiho koma ‘tun nangho kamite nahitauve’ tia kasei ding ahi. Chule amahon eidonbutnuva, ‘Nangma ka Pathen-u nahi’ eitidiu ahi.
