Hosea 1

1 Hagi Usia'ma, Jotamu'ma, Ahasi'ma Hesekaia'ma hu'za Juda vahe kinima mani'za azageno, Joasi nemofo Jeroboamu'ma Israeli vahe kinima mani'nea knafina Ra Anumzamo'a Beri nemofo Hoseana amanage huno asami'ne.

[I am] Hosea, the son of Beeri. Yahweh gave me these messages [at various times] during the years that Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were the kings of Judah, and Jeroboam the son of Jehoash was the King of Israel.

2 Ra Anumzamo'a Beri nemofo Hoseampima huvazino Israeli vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne, Kagra vunka savri'ma hu'za vanoma nehaza monko a'nenefinti ara ome erigeno, savri mofavrerami kasezmanteno. Na'ankure e'i ana avu'avazamo'a, monko a'nemo'za savri hu'za vano nehazankna hu'za Israeli vahe'mo'za havi anumzante mono ome hunente'za Ra Anumzamo'na natre'naza avu'avaza zamaveri hugahie.

When Yahweh first [began to] give messages to me [to tell to the people of Israel], he said to me, “Go and marry a prostitute. But [some of] her children will be born as a result of her having sex with men to whom she is not married. That will illustrate how the people of Israel have turned away from me and worship (idols/other gods).”

3 Ana higeno Hosea'a Diblaimi'e nehaza ne'mofo mofa Goma ara omerigeno, Goma'a amu'ene huno mago ne' mofavre kasente'ne.

So I married Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim. She became pregnant and gave birth to my son.

4 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a Hoseana asamino, Ana mofavremofona Jesrili'e hunka agi'a antemio. Na'ankure Nagra kofta hu'na Jesrili agupofima vahe'ma aheno'ma korama eri tagi'nea zantera, Jehu nagara knazana nezmi'na, Jehu nagapinti'ma kinima mani'za neaza zana eri atregahue.

Yahweh said to me, “Give him the name Jezreel, [which means ‘God scatters’], because I will soon punish the descendants [MTY] of [King] Jehu [by scattering them], because he killed many of my people at Jezreel [town]. [Some day] I will end the kingdom of Israel,

5 Hagi ana knazupa Israeli vahe'mokizmi ati zamia Jesrili agupofi ruhantagi atregahue.

by destroying the power [MTY] of [the army of] Israel in Jezreel Valley.”

6 Hagi Goma'a mago'ane amu'ene huno mago mofa kasentegeno, Ra Anumzamo'a Hoseana asamino, Mofaka'amofo agia, Lo-Ruhama'e, nasunkura huozmantegahue hunka antemio. Na'ankure Nagra mago'enena Israeli vahera nasunkura huozmante'na kumizmi'a apase ozmantegahue.

[Later] Gomer became pregnant [again], and she gave birth to a daughter. Yahweh said to me “Give her the name Lo-ruhamah, [which means ‘not loved],’ because I will no longer [show that I] love the people [MET] of Israel, and I will not forgive them [for the sins that they have committed].

7 Hianagi Nagra Juda vahe'mokizmia nasunkura hunezmante'na, zamagu'ma vazinuana atiretiro, bainati kazintetiro, ha'ma hu'zantetiro, hosine, hosi afu agumpima mani'neza ha'ma nehaza vaheteti'enena hu'na zamagura ovazigosuanki, Nagra Ra Anumzana zamagri Anumzamo'na zamagu'vazigahue.

But I will [show that I] love the people [MTY] of Judah [by saving them from their enemies]. However, it will not be by weapons and armies or horses and chariots that I will save them. Instead, it will be by [the power that I], Yahweh their God, [have].”

8 Hagi Lo-Ruhama'a ome rama huno amima netregeno'a, Goma'a mago'ane amu'ene huno mago ne' mofavre kasente'ne.

After Gomer had (weaned/stopped breast-feeding) Lo-ruhamah, she became pregnant again, and she gave birth to another son.

9 Ana higeno Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Agi'a Lo-Ami'e, nagri vahera omani'naze hunka antemio. Na'ankure zamagra nagri vahera omani'nage'na, Nagra zamagri Anumzana omanigahue.

Yahweh said “Give him the name Lo-ammi, [which means 'not my people', ] because the people of Israel are no [longer my people], and I am not their God.

10 Ana hugahianagi henka'a Israeli vahe'mo'za hageri anke'nafi kahepankna hu'za rama'a vahe fore hanageno, vahe'mo'a hamprigara osugahie. Ana hanigeno, Nagri vahera omani'naze huno'ma hu'nea kerera, ete rukrahe hu'za Agra kasefa huno mani'nea Anumzamofo mofavrerami mani'naze hu'za hugahaze.

But [some day] the people of Israel will be [as numerous] as [SIM] the [grains of] sand on the seashore; no one will be able to count them. Now [I] am saying to them, ‘You are not my people,’ but then people will say to them, ‘[You are the] children of God who is all-powerful.’

11 Ana hanigeno Israeli vahe'ene Juda vahe'mo'zanena eri mago hu'za mago vahe nemaniza, magoke kva ne' azeri otite'za, ana mopafintira atre'za marerigahaze. Na'ankure Jesrili mopafina rankna fore hugahie.

[At that time], the people of Judah and the people of Israel will unite. They will appoint one leader for all of them, and they will return from the countries [to which they have been (exiled/forced to go)]. That will be a great time; Jezreel [also means ‘God plants’, and it will be as though God will plant them in this country again].”
