Hosiya 3

1 Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Ka tafi, ka sāke nuna wa matarka ƙauna, ko da yake wani yana son ta, ita kuma mazinaciya ce. Ka ƙaunace ta yadda Ubangiji yake ƙaunar Isra’ilawa, ko da yake sun juya ga waɗansu alloli suna kuma ƙauna wainar zabibi mai tsarki.”

Then said YHWH unto me, Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of YHWH toward the children of Israel, who look to other elohim, and love flagons of wine.

2 Ta haka na saye ta da shekel goma sha biyar na azurfa da kuma wajen buhu na sha’ir.

So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley:

3 Sai na faɗa mata, “Za ki zauna tare da ni kwanaki masu yawa; kada ki yi karuwanci ko ki yi abuta da wani namiji, ni kuwa zan zauna tare da ke.”

And I said unto her, Thou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee.

4 Gama Isra’ilawa za su yi kwanaki masu yawa ba tare da sarki ko shugaba ba, babu hadaya ko keɓaɓɓun duwatsu, babu efod ko gunki.

For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim:

5 Daga baya Isra’ilawa za su dawo su nemi Ubangiji Allahnsu da kuma Dawuda sarkinsu. Za su je da rawan jiki wajen Ubangiji da kuma ga albarkunsa a kwanakin ƙarshe.

Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek YHWH their Elohim, and David their king; and shall fear YHWH and his goodness in the latter days.
