< Oseas 2 >

1 Ibagayo kadagiti kakabsatyo a lallaki, 'Dagiti tattaok!' ken kadagiti kakabsatyo a babbai, ''Naipakitan kadakayo ti asi.'''
"Say to your brothers, 'My People.' and to your sisters, 'Compassion.'
2 Idarumyo ti inayo, idarumyo, gapu ta saan nga isuna ti asawak, ken saan met a siak ti asawana. Iwaksina koma ti kinabalangkantisna, ken ti pannakikamalalana iti nagbaetan dagiti susona.
Contend with your mother. Contend, for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her prostitution from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts;
3 Ta no saan, labusakto isuna ket ipakitak ti kinalamolamona kas iti aldaw a pannakaipasngayna. Pagbalinekto isuna a kas iti let-ang, kas iti namaga a daga, ket papatayekto isuna gapu iti pannakawaw.
Lest I strip her naked, and make her bare as in the day that she was born, and make her like a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and kill her with thirst.
4 Diakto kaasian dagiti annakna, gapu ta annak ida ti kinabalangkantis.
Indeed, on her children I will have no mercy; for they are children of unfaithfulness;
5 Ta maysa a balangkantis ti inada, ken nagtignay a nakababain ti nangisikog kadakuada. Kinunana, “Surotekto dagiti kaayan-ayatko, ta ik-ikkandak iti tinapay ken danumko, dagiti pagan-anayko a de lana ken linen, ti lanak ken inumek.”
For their mother has played the prostitute. She who conceived them has done shamefully; for she said, 'I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.'
6 Ngarud, agaladakto kadagiti siit a mangserra iti dalanna. Mangipatakderakto iti pader tapno saanna a masarakan ti dalanna.
Therefore, look, I will hedge up her way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she can't find her way.
7 Surotennanto dagiti kaayan-ayatna, ngem saannanto ida a makamatan. Sapulenna ida ngem saannanto ida a mabirokan. Ket ibagananto, “Agsubliak iti immuna nga asawak, ta nasaysayaat kaniak idi ngem ita.”
She will follow after her lovers, but she won't overtake them; and she will seek them, but won't find them. Then she will say, 'I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.'
8 Ta saanna nga ammo a siak ti nangted kenkuana iti bukel, ti baro nga arak ken ti lana, ken nangted kenkuana iti aglaplapusanan a pirak ken balitok, nga inusarda a maipaay kenni Baal.
For she did not know that I gave her the grain, the new wine, and the oil, and multiplied to her silver and gold, which they used for Baal.
9 Isu nga alaekto me laeng dagiti bukelna iti tiempo ti panagaapit, ken ti baro nga arakko iti panawenna. Alaekto met laeng dagiti pagan-anayko a de lana ken linen a nausar a mangabbong iti kinalamolamona.
Therefore I will take back my grain in its time, and my new wine in its season, and will pluck away my wool and my flax which should have covered her nakedness.
10 Kalpasanna, labusakto isuna iti sangoanan dagiti kaayan-ayatna, ket awanto ti mangispal kenkuana manipud iti imak.
Now I will uncover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and no one will deliver her out of my hand.
11 Pagsardengekto pay dagiti amin a panagrambakna— dagiti padayana, dagiti panagrambakna iti baro a bulan, dagiti Aldaw a Panaginanana, ken amin a naituding a fiestana.
I will also cause all her celebrations to cease: her feasts, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.
12 “Dadaelekto dagiti kaubasanna ken dagiti kayona nga igos, ti nangibagaanna a, “Dagitoy dagiti tangdanko nga inted kaniak dagiti kaayan-ayatko.” Pagbalinekto ida a kabakiran, ken kanento dagitoy dagiti ayup iti tay-ak.
I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees, about which she has said, 'These are my wages that my lovers have given me; and I will make them a forest,' and the animals of the field shall eat them.
13 Dusaekto isuna gapu kadagiti aldaw a fiesta dagiti Baal, idi nangpuor isuna iti insenso para kadakuada, idi inarkosanna ti bagina kadagiti singsing ken alahasna, ket simmurot isuna kadagiti kaayan-ayatna ket linipatnak.” Daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
I will visit on her the days of the Baals, to which she burned incense, when she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me," says the LORD.
14 Isu a magun-odkonto manen isuna. Ipankonto isuna iti let-ang ket agsaoakto a siaalumanay kenkuana.
"Therefore, look, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her.
15 Isublikto kenkuana dagiti kaubasanna, ken ti tanap ti Akor a kas ruangan ti namnama. Sungbatannakto sadiay a kas iti inaramidna idi panawen ti kinaagtutubona, kas kadagiti aldaw a rimmuar isuna iti daga ti Egipto.
I will give her vineyards from there, and the Valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will respond there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
16 “Iti daytanto nga aldaw”— daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—”nga awagannakto a, 'Ti asawak,' ket saanakton a pulos nga awagan a, 'Ti Baalko.'
It will be in that day," says the LORD, "that you will call me 'my husband,' and no longer call me 'my master.'
17 Ta ikkatekto dagiti nagan dagiti Baal iti ngiwatna; saanton a pulos a malagip dagiti naganda.”
For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and they will no longer be mentioned by name.
18 “Iti dayta nga aldaw, makitulagakto kadakuada ken kadagiti narungsot nga ayup iti tay-ak, kasta met kadagiti billit iti tangatang, ken kadagiti amin nga agkarkarayam iti daga. Ikkatekto ti bai, ti kampilan, ken ti gubat iti daga, ket paiddaenkanto iti kinatalged.
In that day I will make a covenant for them with the animals of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the crawling creatures of the ground. I will break the bow, the sword, and the battle out of the land, and will make them lie down safely.
19 Ikarik nga agbalinnakto nga asawam iti agnanayon. Ikarik nga agbalinakto nga asawam iti kinalinteg, iti hustisia, iti kinapudno iti tulag, ken iti asi.
I will betroth you to me forever. Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion.
20 Ikarik nga agbalinakto nga asawam iti kinapudno. Ket maam-ammonakto, siak a ni Yahweh.
I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness; and you shall know the LORD.
21 Ket iti dayta nga aldaw, sumungbatakto”—daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh. “Sungbatakto dagiti langit, ket sungbatandanto ti daga.
It will happen in that day, I will respond," says the LORD, "I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth;
22 Sungbatanto ti daga ti bukel, ti baro nga arak ken ti lana, ket sungbatandanto ti Jezreel.
and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will respond to Jezreel.
23 Imulakto isuna iti daga nga agpaay kaniak, ket kaasiakto ti Lo-ruhama. Ibagakto iti Lo-ammi, 'Dakayo dagiti Ammi-atta,' ket ibagadanto kaniak, 'Sika ti Diosko.”'
And I will sow her for myself in the land; and I will compassion on No Compassion; and I will say to Not My People, 'You are my people;' and they will say, 'My God.'"
