Hosea 6

1 Hagi enketa ete rukrahe huta Ra Anumzamofontega vamaneno. Na'ankure Agra tagrira tavufga rutraga trago hu'neankino, Agrake tazeri so'e hugahie. Hagi Agra tavufga rutraga tarago hu'neakino, Agrake namuntera anaki rantegahie.

[The Israeli people say, ] “Come, let’s return to Yahweh! He has caused [us] to be injured, but he will heal us. He has caused [us] to be wounded, but [it is as though] he will put bandages on our wounds [MET].

2 Hagi tare knama evanigeno'a, Agra tazeri kasefa hugahie. Hagi nampa 3 kna zupa tazeri soe hanigeta, agri avuga manigahune.

After a very short time he will revive us; in less than three days he will restore us in order that we may live in his presence.

3 Hagi Ra Anumza mani'ne huta Agrira keta antahita hanune. Hagi Agrama atiramino'ma vania zamo'a, nanterama rumsa huno koma'tiankna nehanigeno ete efresia zamo'a, trazama nehagea knafima neria kokna hugahie.

We must try to know Yahweh; [if we do that, ] he will come [and help] us, as surely as the sun rises [every morning], as surely as rain falls every winter/cold season, and as surely as the rain falls again (in the springtime/at the end of the cold season).”

4 Hagi Efraemi vahe'mota Nagra na'a tamagrira huramantegahue? Hagi Juda vahe'motanena Nagra na'a huramantegahue? Tamagrama tamavesi nenantaza zamo'a nantera hampo kiteno ame huno fanane hiankna nehigeno, nantera ata aheteno ana ata'mo ame huno hagege hiankna nehaze.

[But Yahweh knows they are insincere; ] [so he says to them, ] “You [people of] Israel, and you [people of] Judah, [I do not know] [RHQ] what I should do to you. Your being faithful [to me will disappear as quickly] as [SIM] the morning mist [disappears], like [SIM] the dew [on the ground] that disappears quickly [when the sun shines].

5 E'ina hu'negu kasnampa vahe'nia huzmantanena tamahe'za rutraga trago hunetre'nage'na, nagipinti'ma atiraminia keaganu tamahe'na rutraga tarogo hunetre'na, kopsinamo rutarage huno mikaza eri ama hiaza hu'na, keaga refko huramantegahue.

I warned [HYP] you by [the messages that I gave to] the prophets, [but you did not pay attention to my messages]. Therefore I will completely destroy you; the punishment that I give you will strike you like lightning.

6 Na'ankure Nagri'ma nave'nesiana ofama huzankura nave'nosianki, tamagu'aretima huta Nagri'ma navesinante zanku nave'nesie. Anumzamo'nama nageno antahinoma huzanku nave'nesianki, tevefi kre fananehu ofama hu'zankura nave'nosie.

I want [my people] to faithfully love [me] more than [I want them to offer] sacrifices [to me]; [I want them] to know me more than [I want them to] completely burn sacrifices [on the altar].

7 Hianagi tamagra Adamu kna huta Nagri huhagerafi huvempagea runetagreta, Nagrira tamage huta tamagu'aretira huta namagera nontaze.

But they have refused to obey my agreement, [just] like Adam did; they have not been faithful to me.

8 Hagi Giliati rankumapina kefo avu'ava'zama nehaza vahe'mo'za avitazageno, zamagakafina koramo avite'ne.

Gilead is a city [full] of people who do wicked things; [in the streets] are the bloody footprints [of those who have murdered others].

9 Hagi vahe'ma ahe frinaku'ma kafoma ante'za nemaniza vahekna hu'za pristi vahe'mo'za Sekemu kumategama vu kantega kafona antene'za, vahera zamahe nefri'za, hazenke zana eri fore nehaze.

The priests are like [SIM] bandits who wait (in ambushes/along the road) to attack people; they murder [people who are walking] on the road to Shechem, and they commit other disgraceful crimes.

10 Hagi Israeli vahepina knare osu kefoza me'negena ke'noe. Efraemi vahe'mo'za monko avu'avaza nehazageno, Israeli vahe'mo'za zamagra'a zamazeri pehana hu'naze.

I have seen horrible things [being done] in Israel [MTY]. The people have abandoned me [like prostitutes who have abandoned their husbands] [MET]; [so the people of] Israel have become unacceptable to me.

11 Hagi vahe'nima zamazeri knare'ma hanua zupa, Juda vahe'motanena tamazeri havizama hanua kna ko huhamprinte'noe.

And you [people of] Judah, I have appointed a time when I will punish [MET] you, too. Whenever I wanted to enable my people to prosper again,”
