होशेय 2
[At that time, ] you will say to your fellow-Israeli men, “[You are] God’s people,” and [you will say] to your fellow-Israeli women, “You are ones whom God loves.”
2 २ तुमच्या आईविरुध्द वाद घाला, वादच घाला, कारण ती माझी पत्नी नाही, आणि मी तीचा पती नाही. ती आपल्या वेश्यावृत्तीचे काम स्वत: पासून सोडून देवो आणि व्याभिचाराचे कामे तिच्या उरांपासून दूर होवो.
[Yahweh also said to me], “I want you to accuse the Israeli people. [It is as though] [MET] this nation is your mother, but this nation is [no longer as though it is] [MET] my wife, and it is [no longer as though] [MET] I am its husband. Tell the Israeli people that they must stop [acting like] a prostitute [by worshiping other gods]; they must stop showing by their behavior that they (are unfaithful to/have abandoned) [me] [MET].
3 ३ जर नाही, तर मी तिला नग्न करून जन्माच्या वेळी होती तशी नग्न करीन, मी तिला ओसाड, रुक्ष भूमी सारखे करीन आणि मी तिला तहानेने मारीन.
If they do not do that, I will not give them [food and] clothes [as a husband should give to his wife]; I will take away those things, and I will cause their nation to become [as deserted] as it was on the day that I [brought their ancestors out of Egypt and caused them to become a nation] [MET]. I will cause their country to be like [SIM] a desert; there will be no rain to water the ground [MET].
I will not pity the people, because they have [abandoned me] as [MET] prostitutes abandon their husbands.
5 ५ त्यांची आई वेश्या राहिलेली आहे, व तिचे गरोदर राहणे लज्जास्पद प्रकार आहे, ती म्हणाली, मी माझ्या प्रियकरांकडे जाईन, कारण ते मला माझी भाकर आणि पाणी, माझी लोकर आणि ताग, माझे तेल आणि मद्य देतात.
Their parents are like prostitutes [MET]: they have been unfaithful [to me], and they have done [very] disgraceful things. They said, ‘We will run to [our idols/gods] who love us; [they are the ones] who give us food and water and wool and linen and [olive] oil, and [wine to] drink.’
6 ६ म्हणून मी तिच्या मार्गात काटेरी कुंपण घालीन, मी तिच्या विरुध्द भिंत बांधीन म्हणजे तिला वाट सापडणार नाही.
So [it will be as though] [MET] I am blocking their road with thornbushes, and putting put a wall around them so that they do not know which way to go.
7 ७ ती तिच्या प्रियकरांच्या मागे धावेल पण ती त्यांना गाठू शकणार नाही, ती त्यांचा शोध करेल पण ते तिला सापडणार नाही. मग ती म्हणेल, मी माझ्या पहिल्या नवऱ्याकडे परत जाईल, कारण माझी दशा आतापेक्षा तेव्हा चांगली होती.
They will run to their idols/gods that [they think] love them, but they will not find them. They will search for their false gods, but they will not find them. Then they will say, ‘[Perhaps] we should return to [Yahweh], whom we worshiped previously [MET], because things were better for us then than they are now.’
8 ८ कारण तिला हे ठाऊक नाही की, तो मी होतो ज्याने तिला धान्य, द्राक्षरस, तेल पुरवली व सोने आणि चांदी सढळपणे दिली, नंतर जी तिने बआल मुर्तीस दिली.
But they do not realize that I, [Yahweh], am the one who gave them grain and wine and [olive] oil; I am the one who gave them silver and gold which they used to worship Baal.
9 ९ म्हणून मी हंगामाच्या वेळी तिचे धान्य आणि ऋतुच्या वेळी तिचा द्राक्षरस परत घेईन. तिची लाज झाकण्यासाठी दिलेली माझी लोकर व ताग सुध्दा परत घेईन.
Therefore I will return and take my grain and grapes from them when they are ripe. I will take from them the wool and linen that I gave to them [to make their clothes] [MTY].
10 १० नंतर मी तिच्या प्रियकरांसमोर तिला नग्न करीन व त्यापैकी कोणीही तिला माझ्या हातून सोडवू शकणार नाही.
I will show those false gods/idols that what my people are doing is disgusting [MET], and no one will be able to hinder me from [punishing them].
11 ११ मी तीचा आनंद नष्ट करीन तसेच तिचे उत्सव, सण, चंद्रदर्शन, शब्बाथ आणि नेमलेले सर्व सण मी बंद करीन.
I will cause their religious celebrations to cease, the festivals that they celebrate every year and at every new moon and on their (Sabbath days/weekly days of rest). I will cause all their religious celebrations to cease.
12 १२ मी तिच्या द्राक्षवेली आणि अंजिराची झाडे नष्ट करीन, ज्या विषयी ती म्हणाली होती, माझ्या प्रियकरांनी दिलेली ही माझी वेतने आहेत. मी त्याचे रान करीन आणि वन्य पशू येऊन ते फस्त करतील.
I will destroy [all] their grapevines and fig trees, which they said were what their [idols/gods] who loved them paid them for worshiping those idols. I will cause those places to become a desert, and wild animals will eat the fruit [that remains].
13 १३ तिने बआलास धूप दिला, आणि नथ व दागिने घालून स्वत: नटली. मला विसरून आपल्या प्रियकरांमागे गेली म्हणून मी तिला शिक्षा करीन असे परमेश्वर म्हणतो.
I will punish my people for [all] the times that they burned incense to [honor] the idols of Baal. They decorated themselves with rings and jewelry, and they went to worship those [false gods/idols] that [they thought] [IRO] loved them, but they abandoned/forgot me! [That is what I], Yahweh, say.
But listen! [Some day] I will persuade my people [to worship me again]; I will lead them [out] into the desert and speak kindly to them [there].
15 १५ मी तिला तिचे द्राक्षमळे परत करेन, आशेचे दार म्हणून अखोरचे खोरे देईन. तेव्हा ती मला उत्तर देईल, जसे तिने आपल्या तरुणपणी दिले होते, जेव्हा ती मिसर देशातून आली होती.
I will give their vineyards [back] to them, and I will cause Achor Valley, [which means ‘valley of trouble'], to become a valley where they will confidently expect [me to do good things for them]. They will (respond to/want to please) me there like they did long ago, when I freed them from [being slaves in] Egypt.
16 १६ हे परमेश्वर घोषित करतो की, त्या दिवसात असे होईल की तू मला माझा पती म्हणशील, आणि पुन्हा मला बाली म्हणणार नाहीस.
At that time, they will say to me, ‘[It is as though] [MET] you are our husband.’ They will not say that I am their [master, like they considered that] Baal [was].
17 १७ कारण मी तिच्या मुखातून बआलाची नावे काढून टाकेन, व तिला त्यांची नावे त्यानंतर आठवली जाणार नाही.
I will not allow them to speak [MTY] the names of Baal; they will never use those names again.
18 १८ त्या दिवशी मी इस्राएलासाठी वनपशु, आकाशातील पाखरे, भूमीवर रांगणारे ह्यांसोबत करार करीन. मी देशातून धनुष्य तलवार आणि लढाई नाहीशी करीन, व ते तेथे सुरक्षित वस्ती करतील.
At that time [it will be as though] I will make an agreement with [all] the wild animals and birds, and [even with] the little animals that scurry across the ground, so that they will never harm my people [again]. And I will remove from their nation all the weapons [for fighting] battles, [like] swords and bows [and arrows]. The result will be that my people will live peacefully and safely, and will not be afraid.
19 १९ मी तुझा कायमचा वाग्दत्त पती होईन. मी धर्म, न्याय, करार, विश्वासूपण आणि दया ह्यात तुझा वाग्दत्त पती होईन.
I will cause them to be [as though they are] [MET] my bride forever. I will be righteous and fair/just; I will faithfully love them and be kind to them.
I will not abandon them, and they will realize [that I] Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do.]
21 २१ आणि त्या दिवशी, मी उत्तर देईन, असे परमेश्वर घोषीत करतो, मी आकाशाला उत्तर देईल आणि आकाश भूमीला उत्तर देईन.
At that time, [when they request me to do things for them], [I will do those things]. When they request clouds and rain to fall on their land, I will speak to the clouds, and rain will fall on the earth,
and grain will grow, and the vineyards and the olive trees will grow in Jezreel [Valley].
23 २३ मी स्वत: साठी तिचे रोपण भूमीत करीन, आणि लो रुहामावर दया करीन. जे माझे लोक नव्हते त्यास मी माझे लोक म्हणेन आणि ते मला तू माझा देव आहेस असे म्हणतील.
[At that time], I will take care of the Israeli people [like a farmer plants and takes care of his crops] [MET]. I will love those people that I previously said were ones I did not love, and I previously said, ‘You are not my people,’ and [then] they will say to me, ‘You are our God.’”
