Hosea 2
1 Ke ma inge, pangon mukul Israel wiowos “Ammi,” ac mutan Israel wiowos, “Ruhamah.”.
Say to your brother, My people, and to your sister, Pitied.
2 Tulik nutik, fahla nu yurin nina kiomtal, el finne tila mutan se kiuk ac nga tila mukul tumal. Fahla kwafe sel elan tui liki elahn kosro lal ac moul fohkfok lal.
Plead with your mother, plead: for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband: and I will remove her fornication out of my presence, and her adultery from between her breasts:
3 El fin tiana tui, nga fah selya elan koflufolla oana ke len se el isusla ah. Nga fah oru elan oana sie acn musrasrla ac el fah misa ke malu.
that I may strip her naked, and make her again as she was at the day of her birth: and I will make her desolate, and make her as a dry land, and will kill her with thirst.
4 Nga fah tia pakomuta tulik natul, mweyen elos tulik nutin sie mutan kosro.
And I will not have mercy upon her children; for they are children of fornication.
5 Mutan sac el sifacna fahk mu, “Nga ac som nu yurin mukul nga orek pwar se — elos se mwe mongo nak ac kof nimuk, unen sheep ac nuknuk linen, oil in olive ac wain.”
And their mother went a-whoring: she that bore them disgraced [them]: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, and my garments, and my linen clothes, my oil and my necessaries.
6 Ke ma inge, nga ac kalsalak ke kokul, ac etoak sie pot in kosralla.
Therefore, behold, I hedge up her way with thorns, and I will stop the ways, and she shall not find her path.
7 El ac kasrusr ukwe mukul el orek pwar nu se tuh el ac fah tia sonolos. El ac fah sokolos tuh el ac fah tia konalosyak. Na el ac fah fahk, “Nga ac folokla nu yurin mukul tumuk ah. Wo nu sik ke pacl se nga muta yorol ah liki na inge.”
And she shall follow after her lovers, and shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: and she shall say, I will go, and return to my former husband; for it was better with me than now.
8 El ac fah tiana akkalemye lah nga pa kital wheat, wain, oil in olive, ac silver ac gold nukewa ma el alyalukin nu sel Baal.
And she knew not that I gave her her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied silver to her: but she made silver and gold [images] for Baal.
9 Ouinge ke pacl in kosrani nga fah folokonma mwe sang luk nu sel ke wheat ac wain, ac nga fah eisla unen sheep ac nuknuk linen ma nga tuh sang elan nukum.
Therefore I will return, and take away my corn in its season, and my wine in its time; and I will take away my raiment and my linen clothes, so that she shall not cover her nakedness.
10 Nga fah akkoflufolyal ye mutun mwet el orek pwar yoro, ac wangin sie fah ku in molella liki ku luk.
And now I will expose her uncleanness before her lovers, and no one shall by any means deliver her out of my hand.
11 Nga fah oru tuh pacl in engan lal nukewa in wanginla — pwar lal ke yac nukewa, malem nukewa, Sabbath nukewa — aok, toeni in alyalu nukewa lal.
And I will take away all her gladness, her feasts, and her festivals at the new moon, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.
12 Nga fah kunausla ima in grape lal ac sak fig sunal su el fahk mu mukul kawuk lal sang lal. Nga fah ekulla ima in grape lal ac sak sunal tuh in oana yen mwesis. Kosro lemnak uh ac fah kunausla.
And I will utterly destroy her vines, and her fig-trees, all things of which she said, These are my hire which my lovers have given me: and I will make them a testimony, and the wild beasts of the field, and the birds of the sky, and the reptiles of the earth shall devour them.
13 Nga fah kael ke pacl el tuh mulkinyula ac esukak mwe keng nu sel Baal, ac pacl el naweyukla som ukwe mukul kawuk lal. Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk.
And I will recompense on her the days of Baalim, wherein she sacrificed to them, and put on her ear-rings, and her necklaces, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, says the Lord.
14 Ouinge nga fah sifil folokunulla nu yen mwesis, ac nga fah kaskas kulang nu sel in akwoye insial.
Therefore, behold, I [will] cause her to err, and will make her as desolate, and will speak comfortably to her.
15 Nga fah folokonang nu sel ima in grape lal meet ah, ac oru tuh Infahlfal in Lokoalok in ekla mutunoa lun finsrak. El fah topukyu we oana el tuh topukyu ke el fusr ac ilme liki facl Egypt.
And I will giver her possessions from thence, and the valley of Achor to open her understanding: and she shall be afflicted there according to the days of her infancy, and according to the days of her coming up out of the land of Egypt.
16 Na el fah sifilpa pangon mu nga mukul tumal — el ac fah tia sifilpa pangon mu nga Baal lal.
And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord, [that] she shall call me, My husband, and shall no longer call me Baalim.
17 Nga fah tiana fuhlela elan sifilpa fahkla ine se inge “Baal.”
And I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and their names shall be remembered no more at all.
18 Ke pacl sac, nga fah oru sie wulela yurin kosro lemnak nukewa ac won sohksok uh, elos in tia akkolukye mwet luk. Nga fah oayapa eosla kufwen mwet mweun nukewa liki acn uh — cutlass ac mwe pisr nukewa — ac nga fah oru tuh mwet luk uh in muta in misla ac tia sensen.
And I will make for them in that day a covenant with the wild beasts of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the reptiles of the earth: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle from off the earth, and will cause you to dwell safely.
19 Israel, nga fah eis kom in mutan kiuk nwe tok; Nga ac fah pwayena ac suwosna nu sum; Nga fah akkalemye pakoten ac lungse kawil luk nu sum.
And I will betroth you to myself for ever; yes, I will betroth you to myself in righteousness, and in judgment, and in mercy, and in tender compassions;
20 Nga fah karinganang wulela luk nu sum, Ac kom fah akilen lah pwaye nga pa LEUM GOD.
and I will betroth you to myself in faithfulness: and you shall know the Lord.
21 In pacl sac nga fah topuk pre lun Israel, mwet luk.
And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord, I will listen to the heaven, and it shall listen to the earth;
22 Nga fah oru af in kahk nu faclu, Na faclu fah fokkakin wheat, grape ac olive.
and the earth shall listen to the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall listen to Jezrael.
23 Nga fah oaki mwet luk fin acn uh, ac oru tuh elos in sun wo ouiya. Nga fah pakoten nu selos su ekin “Tia Pakomuteyuk,” Ac nu selos su ekin “Tia Mwet Luk,” Nga fah fahk, “Kowos mwet luk,” Ac elos fah topuk, “Kom God lasr.”
And I will sow her to me on the earth; and will love her that was not loved, and will say to that which was not my people, You are my people; and they shall say, You are the Lord my God.
