होशे 6
1 “आओ, हामी परमप्रभुतर्फ फर्कौं । किनकि उहाँले हामीलाई टुक्रा-टुक्रा पार्नुभएको छ, तर उहाँले हामीलाई निको पार्नुहुनेछ । उहाँले हामीलाई घाइते बनाउनुभएको छ, तर उहाँले हाम्रो घाउमा पट्टी लगाउनुहुनेछ ।
saying, ‘Come let us return to the Lord, for he has torn us but he will heal us, he has injured us but he will bandage our wounds,
2 दुई दिनपछि उहाँले हामीलाई पुनर्जीवित पार्नुहुनेछ । तेस्रो दिनमा उहाँले हामीलाई उठाउनुहुनेछ, र हामीहरू उहाँको सामु जिउनेछौं ।
he will revive in a couple of days, on the third day he will raise us up again, to live in his presence.
3 हामी परमप्रभुलाई चिनौं । परमप्रभुलाई चिन्नुपर्ने दवावमा हामी परौं । झिसमिसे बिहानीझैं उहाँको आगमन निश्चित छ । उहाँ हामीकहाँ झरीझैं, जमिनलाई भिजाउने बसन्त ऋतुको झरीझैं आउनुहुनेछ ।”
Let us know, let us eagerly seek to know the Lord. His coming is as sure as the sunrise. He will come to us like the winter rain, as the spring rain that waters the earth.’
4 ए एफ्राइम, म तँलाई के गरूँ? ए यहूदा, म तँलाई के गरूँ? तेरो विश्वस्तता बिहानीको बादलझैं, चाँडै हराएर जाने शीतझैं छ ।
What can I make of you, Ephraim! What can I make of you, Judah! Your love is like a morning cloud, like the dew which early goes away.
5 यसैले तिनीहरूलाई मैले अगमवक्ताहरूद्वारा टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारेको छु, तिनीहरूलाई मैले आफ्नो मुखको वचनले मारेको छु । तिमीहरूका आदेशहरू चम्किने बिजुलीझैं छन् ।
That is why I have hewn them by the prophets, I have slain them by the words of my mouth. My judgment is like the light that goes forth,
6 किनकि म बलिदान होइन, विश्वस्तता चाहन्छु, र होमबलिहरूभन्दा धैरे परमेश्वरको ज्ञान भएको चाहन्छु ।
for it is love that I delight in and not sacrifice, and knowledge of God and not burnt offerings.
7 आदमले झैं तिनीहरूले करार तोडेका छन्, तिनीहरू मप्रति विश्वासहीन भएका छन् ।
But they after the manner of men have transgressed the covenant, there they have played me false.
8 गिलादचाहिं दुष्ट काम गर्नेहरूको सहर हो, जसका पाइलाहरूमा रगत छ ।
Gilead is a city of evildoers, tracked with bloody footprints,
9 डाँकुहरूका समुहले कसैलाई पर्खिरहेझैं, शकेम जाने बाटोमा पुजारीहरू मार्नलाई समुहमा बस्छन् । तिनीहरूले लज्जास्पद अपराधहरू गरेका छन् ।
and as bandits lie in wait for a man, so a band of priests murder on the way to Shechem. How terrible is the evil they do!

In Bethel I have seen a horrible thing. There Ephraim plays the prostitute, Israel is defiled.
11 ए यहूदा तेरो निम्ति पनि कटनी तोकिएको छ, जति बेला म आफ्ना मानिसहरूको सुदिन पुनर्स्थापना गर्नेछु ।
Judah for you also a harvest is set. When I would restore the fortunes of my people,
