< Hosea 3 >

1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ, wonie mũtumia waku wendo rĩngĩ, o na gũtuĩka nĩendetwo nĩ mũndũ ũngĩ na nĩ mũtharia. Mwende o ta ũrĩa Jehova endete andũ a Isiraeli, o na gũtuĩka nĩmagarũrũkagĩra ngai ingĩ na makenda keki iria nyamũre cia thabibũ nyũmũ.”
And the Lord seide to me, Yit go thou, and loue a womman loued of a frend, and a womman auoutresse, as the Lord loueth the sones of Israel; and thei biholden to alien goddis, and louen the draffis of grapis.
2 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩmũgũra na thogora wa cekeri ikũmi na ithano cia betha, na ta homeri na letheku ĩmwe ya cairi.
And Y dalf it to me bi fiftene pens, and bi a corus of barli, and bi half a corus of barli.
3 Ngĩcooka ngĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩũgũtũũrania na niĩ matukũ maingĩ, na no nginya ũtige ũmaraya na ndũkendane na mũndũ ũngĩ, na niĩ nĩngũtũũrania nawe.”
And Y seide to it, Bi many daies thou shalt abide me; thou schalt not do fornycacioun, and thou schalt not be with an hosebonde, but also Y schal abide thee.
4 Nĩgũkorwo andũ a Isiraeli nĩmegũtũũra matukũ maingĩ matarĩ na mũthamaki kana mũnene, na matarĩ na igongona kana mahiga maamũre, na matarĩ na ebodi kana mũhianano.
For bi many daies the sones of Israel schulen sitte with out kyng, with out prince, and with out sacrifice, and with out auter, and with out prestis cloth, and with out terafyn, that is, ymagis.
5 Thuutha ũcio andũ a Isiraeli nĩmagacooka na marongorie Jehova Ngai wao na Daudi mũthamaki wao. Nĩmagooka makĩinainaga kũrĩ Jehova na kũrĩ irathimo ciake matukũ-inĩ ma mũthia.
And after these thingis the sones of Israel schulen turne ayen, and schulen seke her Lord God, and Dauid, her king; and thei schulen drede at the Lord, and at the good of him, in the laste of daies.
