Hosiya 2
1 “Ka ce da’yan’uwanka maza, ‘Mutanena,’ ka kuma ce da’yan’uwanka mata, ‘Ƙaunatacciyata.’
So call your brothers, My People, and your sisters, Compassion.
2 “Ka tsawata wa mahaifiyarka, ka tsawata mata, gama ita ba matata ba ce, ni kuma ba mijinta ba ne. Ku roƙe ta tă daina karuwancinta da kuma rashin aminci a tsakanin nononta.
Accuse, accuse your mother: for she is not my wife, and I will not be her husband. Let her put her acts of infidelity out of her sight, and her lovers from between her breasts,
3 In ba haka ba zai tuɓe ta tsirara in bar ta kamar yadda take a ranar da aka haife ta; zan sa ta zama kamar hamada, in mayar da ita busasshiyar ƙasar, in kashe ta da ƙishirwa.
else I will strip her bare, expose her as she was on the day of her birth, make her like the wilderness, let her become like a parched land, and let her die of thirst.
4 Ba zan nuna wa’ya’yanta ƙaunata ba, domin su’ya’yan zina ne.
And on her children I will have no pity, since they are children of adultery,
5 Mahaifiyarsu ta yi rashin aminci ta kuma ɗauki cikinsu ta wurin yi abin kunya. Ta ce, ‘Zan bi kwartayena, waɗanda suke ba ni abinci da ruwa, ulu nawa da lilina, mai nawa da kuma abin sha na.’
for their mother has become a prostitute, she who conceived them has behaved shamefully. She has said, “I will go after my lovers who gave me my bread and my water, my wool, my flax, my oil, and my drink.”
6 Saboda haka zai tare hanyarta da ƙaya; zan yi mata katanga don kada tă sami hanya.
That is why I am going to hedge up her ways with thorns, and build a wall about her, so that she cannot find her paths.
7 Za tă bi kwartayenta amma ba za tă kama su ba; za tă neme su amma ba za tă same su ba. Sa’an nan za tă ce, ‘Zan koma ga mijina na fari, gama dā ya fi mini yadda nake a yanzu.’
She will pursue her lovers, but will not overtake them. She will seek them, but not find them. In time she will say, “I will go back to my first husband, I was better off then than now.”
8 Ba ta yarda cewa ni ne wanda ya ba ta hatsi, sabon ruwan inabi da mai ba, wanda ya jibge mata azurfa da zinariya, waɗanda suka yi amfani wa Ba’al ba.
She herself did not know that it was I who gave her the grain, the sweet wine, and the oil, who lavished on her silver and gold – that they used in worshipping Baal!
9 “Saboda haka zan ƙwace hatsina sa’ad da ya nuna, da sabon ruwan inabina sa’ad da ya ƙosa. Zan karɓe ulu nawa da lilina, da take niyya ta rufe tsiraicinta.
So I will take back my grain at the harvest, and my sweet wine in its season. I will withdraw my wool and my flax, given to cover her nakedness;
10 Saboda haka yanzu zan buɗe tsiraicinta a idanun kwartayenta; ba wani da zai ƙwace ta daga hannuwana.
and so I will strip her naked before her lovers, and no one shall deliver her out of my hand.
11 Zan tsayar da dukan bukukkuwarta, bukukkuwarta na shekara-shekara, da kuma kiyaye bikin Sababbin Wata nata, kwanakin Asabbacinta, dukan ƙayyadaddun bukukkuwarta.
I will end all her celebrations, her yearly feasts, her new moons, and her sabbaths, all her festivals.
12 Zan lalatar da inabinta da kuma itatuwan ɓaurenta, waɗanda take cewa su ne abin da kwartayenta suka biya; zan mayar da su kurmi, namun jeji kuwa za su ci su.
I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees, of which she says, “These are my wages which my lovers have given me.” I will make them a thicket, and the wild animals will eat them.
13 Zan hukunta ta saboda kwanakin da ta ƙone turare wa Ba’al; ta yi wa kanta ado da zobai da duwatsu masu daraja, ta bi kwartayenta, amma ta manta da ni,” in ji Ubangiji.
In this way I will punish her for the days of the Baals, in which she made offerings to them, and decked herself with earrings and jewels, and went after her lovers, but forgot me, – declares the Lord.
14 “Saboda haka yanzu zan rarrashe ta; zan bishe ta zuwa hamada in kuma yi mata magana a hankali.
So I am going to court her, bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her.
15 A can zan mayar mata da gonakin inabinta, zan kuma sa Kwarin Akor yă zama ƙofar bege. A can za tă rera kamar a kwanakin ƙuruciyarta, kamar a lokacin da ta fita daga Masar.
I will give her from there her vineyards, and the valley of Achor as a door of hope. There she will respond as in the days of her youth, as in the days when she came up from the land of Egypt.
16 “A waccan rana,” in ji Ubangiji, “za ki ce da ni ‘mijina’; ba za ki ƙara ce ni ‘maigidana’ ba.
At that time, declares the Lord, you will call me your husband, and will no more call me your master.
17 Zan cire sunayen Ba’al daga leɓunanta; ba za a ƙara kira sunayensu ba.
I will remove the name of the Baals from her mouth, their names never again uttered.
18 A waccan rana zan yi alkawari dominsu da namun jeji da kuma tsuntsayen sararin sama da dukan halittu masu rarrafe a ƙasa. Baka da takobi da yaƙi zan sa su ƙare a ƙasar, domin duk su zauna lafiya.
On that day I will make for them a covenant with the wild animals, the birds of the sky, and the creatures that crawl on the earth. I will break the bow and the sword, banish battle from the land, and I will make them lie down in safety.
19 Zan ɗaura aure da ke har abada; zan ɗaura aure da yake cikin adalci da gaskiya, cikin ƙauna da jinƙai.
I will take you for my wife forever, I will take you for my wife in righteousness, in justice, in kindness, and in mercy.
20 Zan ɗaura aure da yake cikin aminci za ki kuwa yarda cewa ni ne Ubangiji.
I will take you for my wife in faithfulness, and you will know the Lord.
21 “A waccan rana zan amsa,” in ji Ubangiji, “zan amsa wa sararin sama, za su kuwa amsa wa ƙasa;
On that day I will answer – declares the Lord, I will answer the empty skies, and they will answer the dry earth.
22 ƙasa kuma za tă amsa wa hatsi, sabon ruwan inabi da kuma mai, su kuma za su amsa wa Yezireyel.
The earth will answer with grain, and new wine and oil, and they will answer Jezreel,
23 Zan dasa ta wa kaina a ƙasar; zan shuka ƙaunata ga wanda na ce ‘Ba ƙaunatacciyata ba.’ Zan faɗa wa waɗanda a ce ‘Ba mutanena ba,’ ‘Ku mutanena ne’; za su kuwa ce, ‘Kai ne Allahna.’”
and I will plant her in the land. I will have compassion to No-Compassion, I will say to Not-My-People, “You are my people,” and they will say, “You are my God.”
