< Hosea 1 >

1 A word of Jehovah that hath been unto Hosea, son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel:
Pawòl SENYÈ a ki te vini a Osée, fis a Béeri a, pandan jou Ozias yo, Jotham, Achaz, ak Ézéchias, wa a Juda a, e nan tan Jéroboam, fis a Joas la, wa Israël la.
2 The commencement of Jehovah's speaking by Hosea. And Jehovah saith unto Hosea, 'Go, take to thee a woman of whoredoms, and children of whoredoms, for utterly go a-whoring doth the land from after Jehovah.'
Lè SENYÈ a te pale an premye pa Osée, SENYÈ a te di a Osée: “Ale, pran pou ou menm, yon madanm pwostitiye, ak pitit enfidèl yo. Paske peyi a ap komèt gwo pwostitisyon. L ap abandone SENYÈ a.”
3 And he goeth and taketh Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceiveth and beareth to him a son;
Konsa, li te ale pran Gomer, fi a Diblaïm nan. Li te vin ansent, e li te fè yon fis pou li.
4 and Jehovah saith unto him, 'Call his name Jezreel, for yet a little, and I have charged the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, and have caused to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel;
Konsa, SENYÈ a te di li: “Bay li non Jizreel; paske deja nan yon ti tan mwen va vanje san a Jizreel sou lakay Jéhu. Epi sa va koze wayòm lakay Israël la fini.
5 and it hath come to pass in that day that I have broken the bow of Israel, in the valley of Jezreel.'
Nan jou sa a, Mwen va kraze banza Israël la nan vale Jizreel la.”
6 And she conceiveth again, and beareth a daughter, and He saith to him, 'Call her name Lo-Ruhamah, for I add no more to pity the house of Israel, for I do utterly take them away;
Konsa, li te vin ansent ankò, e li te bay nesans a yon fi. Epi SENYÈ a te di li: “Rele li Lo Ruchama, paske Mwen p ap fè konpasyon ankò pou lakay Israël, pou M ta janm padone yo.
7 and the house of Judah I pity, and have saved them by Jehovah their God, and do not save them by bow, and by sword, and by battle, by horses, and by horsemen.'
Men Mwen va genyen konpasyon pou lakay Juda. Yo va delivre pa SENYÈ Bondye yo, a e yo p ap delivre ni pa banza, ni pa nepe, ni pa batay, pa cheval, ni chevalye.”
8 And she weaneth Lo-Ruhamah, and conceiveth, and beareth a son;
Alò, lè li te fin sevre Lo Ruchama, li te vin ansent, e li te fè yon fis.
9 and He saith, 'Call his name Lo-Ammi, for ye [are] not My people, and I am not for you;
Epi SENYÈ a te di: “Rele li Lo Ammi, paske nou pa pèp Mwen, ni Mwen pa Bondye nou.”
10 and the number of the sons of Israel hath been as the sand of the sea, that is not measured nor numbered, and it hath come to pass in the place where it is said to them, Ye [are] not My people, it is said to them, Sons of the Living God;
Malgre sa, fis Israël yo va tankou sab lanmè, ki p ap ka mezire, ni konte. Men nan plas kote sa te pale a yo menm nan, ‘Nou pa pèp Mwen an’, sa va pale a yo menm ‘Yo va rele fis a Bondye vivan an.’
11 and gathered have been the sons of Judah and the sons of Israel together, and they have appointed to themselves one head, and have gone up from the land, for great [is] the day of Jezreel.
Konsa, fis a Juda ak fis Israël yo va vin rasanble ansanm, epi yo va chwazi pou kont yo yon sèl chèf, epi yo va monte depi nan peye a, paske jou a Jizreel la va vreman gran.
