Hosea 2
1 “Ha ũhoro wa ariũ a thoguo, meere atĩrĩ, ‘Inyuĩ mũrĩ andũ akwa’, na ha ũhoro wa aarĩ a thoguo, ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Inyuĩ mũrĩ endwa akwa’.
“Nena kwa abale ako kuti, ‘Ndinu anthu anga,’ kwa alongo ako kuti ‘Ndinu okondedwa anga.’”
2 “Thaithai nyina wanyu, mũthaithei, nĩgũkorwo we ti mũtumia wakwa, na niĩ ndirĩ mũthuuriwe. Nĩeherie maũndũ ma ũtharia ũthiũ-inĩ wake, na athengie ũmaraya gatagatĩ-inĩ ka nyondo ciake.
“Dzudzulani amayi anu, adzudzuleni iwo, pakuti si mkazi wanga, ndipo ine sindine mwamuna wake. Iyeyo achotse maonekedwe adama pa nkhope yake, ndi kusakhulupirika pa mawere ake.
3 Akorwo ti ũguo ndĩmũrute nguo aikare arĩ njaga, na ndũme aikare njaga o ta mũthenya ũrĩa aaciarirwo; ngaamũtua ta werũ, na ndĩmũgarũre atuĩke bũrũri mũngʼaru, na ndĩmũũrage na nyoota.
Akapanda kutero ndidzamuvula, ndipo adzakhala wamaliseche monga tsiku limene anabadwa; ndidzamuwumitsa ngati chipululu, adzakhala ngati dziko lopanda madzi, ndi kumupha ndi ludzu.
4 Ndikaiguĩra ciana ciake tha, tondũ nĩ ciana cia ũtharia.
Sindidzaonetsa chikondi changa pa ana ake, chifukwa ndi ana a mʼchiwerewere.
5 Nyina wao akoretwo akĩhũũra ũmaraya, na aagĩire nda ciao na njĩra cia ũũra-thoni. Nĩ ũndũ oigĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngũrũmĩrĩra endwa akwa, arĩa maaheaga irio ciakwa na maaĩ makwa, na guoya wakwa wa ngʼondu o na gatani yakwa, maguta makwa o na kĩrĩa nyuuaga.’
Amayi awo akhala akuchita zachiwerewere ndipo anawabereka anawo akuchita zinthu zochititsa manyazi. Iwo anati, ‘Ine ndidzatsatira zibwenzi zanga, zimene zimandipatsa chakudya ndi madzi, ubweya ndi thonje, mafuta ndi chakumwa.’
6 Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo nĩngũhinga njĩra yake na mĩigua, ndĩmũirigĩre thĩinĩ, aage njĩra ya kuumĩra.
Choncho njira yake ndidzayitseka ndi minga; ndidzamuzinga ndi khoma kotero kuti sadzapezanso njira yotulukira.
7 Nĩagatengʼeria endwa ake na ndakamakinyĩra. Akaamacaria na ndakamona. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩagacooka oige atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngũcooka kũrĩ mũthuuri wakwa wa mbere, nĩgũkorwo hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩndaikarĩte wega gũkĩra rĩu.’
Adzathamangira zibwenzi zake koma sadzazipeza; adzazifunafuna koma sadzazipeza. Pamenepo iye adzati, ‘Ndibwerera kwa mwamuna wanga woyamba uja, pakuti ndinali pabwino ndi iyeyo kusiyanitsa ndi pano.’
8 Mũtumia ũcio nĩagire kũmenya atĩ nĩ niĩ ndaamũheaga ngano, na ndibei ya mũhihano, o na maguta, na ngamũingĩhĩria betha na thahabu, iria maahũthagĩra gũthondeka ngai ĩrĩa ĩĩtagwo Baali.
Iye sanazindikire kuti ndine amene ndinkamupatsa tirigu, vinyo watsopano ndi mafuta. Ndine amene ndinkamukhuthulira siliva ndi golide, zimene ankapangira mafano a Baala.
9 “Tondũ ũcio nĩngoya ngano yakwa yakũra, na ndibei yakwa ya mũhihano yagĩrĩra, na ndĩmũtunye guoya wakwa wa ngʼondu na gatani yakwa, o iria ciarĩ cia kũmũhumbĩra njaga yake.
“Choncho Ine ndidzamulanda tirigu wanga pa nthawi yokolola, ndi vinyo wanga watsopano pa nthawi yopsinya mphesa. Ndidzamulanda ubweya ndi thonje langa, zomwe akanaphimba nazo umaliseche wake.
10 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, nĩngaguũria maũndũ make ma waganu endwa ake mamwĩroreire; gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaamũteithũra moko-inĩ makwa.
Motero tsopano ndidzaonetsa maliseche ake pamaso pa zibwenzi zake; palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe adzamupulumutse mʼmanja mwanga.
11 Nĩnganiina ikeno ciake ciothe, arĩ cio: ciathĩ ciake cia mwaka o mwaka, na Tũrũgamo twake twa mweri, na mĩthenya yake ya Thabatũ, na ciathĩ ciake ciothe iria nyamũre.
Ndidzathetsa zikondwerero zake zonse: zikondwerero zake za chaka ndi chaka, za mwezi watsopano, za pa masiku a Sabata ndi maphwando ake onse a pa masiku okhazikitsidwa.
12 Nĩngathũkangia mĩthabibũ yake na mĩkũyũ yake, ĩrĩa oigire nĩ irĩhi rĩake kuuma kũrĩ endwa ake; nĩngamĩtua ihinga, na nyamũ cia gĩthaka nĩikamĩrĩa.”
Ndidzawononga mitengo yake ya mpesa ndi mitengo yake yamkuyu, imene iye ankanena kuti inali malipiro ake ochokera kwa zibwenzi zake. Ndidzayisandutsa chithukuluzi, ndipo zirombo zakuthengo zidzadya zipatsozo.
13 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩngamũherithia nĩ ũndũ wa mĩthenya ĩrĩa acinĩire Baali ũbumba; rĩrĩa eegemagia na icũhĩ, na mathaga ma goro, na akĩrũmĩrĩra endwa ake, no akĩriganĩrwo nĩ niĩ.
Ndidzamulanga chifukwa cha masiku amene anafukiza lubani kwa Abaala; anadzikongoletsa povala mphete ndi mikanda yamtengowapatali ndipo anathamangira zibwenzi zake, koma Ine anandiyiwala,” akutero Yehova.
14 “Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo nĩngũmũguucĩrĩria na waara; ngũmũtongoria nginya werũ-inĩ, na ndĩmwarĩrie na ciugo cia wendo.
“Koma tsopano ndidzamukopa mkaziyo; ndidzapita naye ku chipululu ndipo ndidzamuyankhula mwachikondi.
15 Kũu nĩkuo ngaamũcookeria mĩgũnda yake ya mĩthabibũ, na ndue Kĩanda kĩa Akori mũrango wa mwĩhoko. Kũu nĩkuo akaina o ta ũrĩa ainaga matukũ-inĩ ma ũnini wake, aine ta ũrĩa ainire mũthenya ũrĩa aambatire kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri.”
Kumeneko ndidzamubwezera minda yake ya mpesa, ndipo ndidzasandutsa Chigwa cha Akori kukhala khomo la chiyembekezo. Kumeneko iye adzayimba nyimbo monga mʼmasiku a ubwana wake, monga tsiku limene anatuluka ku Igupto.
16 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, nĩũkanjĩta ‘Mũthuuri wakwa’; ndũkanjĩta rĩngĩ ‘Mwathi wakwa’.
“Tsiku limeneli,” Yehova akuti, “udzandiyitana kuti, ‘Amuna anga;’ sudzandiyitananso kuti, ‘Mbuye wanga.’
17 Nĩngeheria marĩĩtwa ma Baali kuuma mĩromo-inĩ yake; marĩĩtwa macio matikagwetwo rĩngĩ.
Ndidzachotsa mayina a Abaala pakamwa pake; sadzatchulanso mayina awo popemphera.
18 Mũthenya ũcio nĩngathondeka kĩrĩkanĩro na nyamũ cia gĩthaka, o na nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ, na ciũmbe iria ithiiagĩra gũkũ thĩ nĩ ũndũ wao. Ũta, na rũhiũ rwa njora, na mbaara nĩngaciniina bũrũri-inĩ, nĩgeetha othe makomage marĩ na thayũ.
Tsiku limenelo ndidzachita pangano ndi zirombo zakuthengo ndi mbalame zamumlengalenga ndiponso zolengedwa zokwawa pansi kuti ziyanjane ndi anthu anga. Ndidzachotsa mʼdzikomo uta, lupanga ndi zida zonse zankhondo, kuti onse apumule mwamtendere.
19 Nĩngakũũria ũtuĩke mũtumia wakwa nginya tene; ngaakũũria ũtuĩke wakwa ũhoro-inĩ wa ũthingu na wa kĩhooto, ngũũrie ndĩ na wendo na tha.
Ndidzakutomera kuti ukhale mkazi wanga mpaka muyaya; ndidzakutomera mwachilungamo, mwaungwiro, mwachikondi ndi mwachifundo.
20 Nĩngakũũria ũtuĩke wakwa na wĩhokeku, nawe nĩũgetĩkĩra Jehova.”
Ndidzakutomera mokhulupirika ndipo udzadziwa Yehova.
21 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, nĩngacookia ũhoro; nĩngacookeria matu ũhoro, namo matu macookerie thĩ ũhoro;
“Tsiku limenelo Ine ndidzayankha,” akutero Yehova. “Ndidzayankha mlengalenga pempho lake lofuna mitambo ndipo mvula idzagwa pa dziko lapansi;
22 nayo thĩ ĩcookerie ngano, na ndibei ya mũhihano, na maguta ũhoro, nacio nĩigacookeria Jezireeli ũhoro.
ndipo nthaka idzamvera kupempha kwa tirigu, vinyo ndi mafuta, ndipo zidzamvera Yezireeli.
23 Nĩngamũhaanda bũrũri-inĩ nĩ ũndũ wakwa mwene; nĩngonania wendo wakwa harĩ ũrĩa nderĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ ndikwendete’. Arĩa nderĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Inyuĩ mũtirĩ andũ akwa’, nĩngameera atĩrĩ, ‘Inyuĩ mũrĩ andũ akwa’; na mũndũ o mũndũ oige atĩrĩ, ‘Wee nĩwe Ngai wakwa.’”
Ndidzadzala Israeli mʼdziko kuti akhale wanga: ndidzaonetsa chikondi changa kwa anthu amene ndinkawatchula dzina loti, ‘Sakondedwa.’ Ndidzawawuza amene ndinkawatchula dzina loti, ‘Si anthu anga,’ kuti, ‘Ndinu anthu wanga;’ ndipo adzanena kuti, ‘ndinu Mulungu wathu,’”
