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 ।
“Come! Let’s return to the LORD; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds.
2 दुई दिनपछि उहाँले हामीलाई पुनर्जीवित पार्नुहुनेछ । तेस्रो दिनमा उहाँले हामीलाई उठाउनुहुनेछ, र हामीहरू उहाँको सामु जिउनेछौं ।
After two days he will revive us. On the third day he will raise us up, and we will live before him.
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’s acknowledge the LORD. Let’s press on to know the LORD. As surely as the sun rises, the LORD will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like 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 ।
“Ephraim, what shall I do to you? Judah, what shall I do to you? For your love is like a morning cloud, and like the dew that disappears early.
5 यसैले तिनीहरूलाई मैले अगमवक्ताहरूद्वारा टुक्रा-टुक्रा पारेको छु, तिनीहरूलाई मैले आफ्‍नो मुखको वचनले मारेको छु । तिमीहरूका आदेशहरू चम्किने बिजुलीझैं छन् ।
Therefore I have cut them to pieces with the prophets; I killed them with the words of my mouth. Your judgements are like a flash of lightning.
6 किनकि म बलिदान होइन, विश्‍वस्‍तता चाहन्छु, र होमबलिहरूभन्दा धैरे परमेश्‍वरको ज्ञान भएको चाहन्छु ।
For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
7 आदमले झैं तिनीहरूले करार तोडेका छन्, तिनीहरू मप्रति विश्‍वासहीन भएका छन् ।
But they, like Adam, have broken the covenant. They were unfaithful to me there.
8 गिलादचाहिं दुष्‍ट काम गर्नेहरूको सहर हो, जसका पाइलाहरूमा रगत छ ।
Gilead is a city of those who work iniquity; it is stained with blood.
9 डाँकुहरूका समुहले कसैलाई पर्खिरहेझैं, शकेम जाने बाटोमा पुजारीहरू मार्नलाई समुहमा बस्छन् । तिनीहरूले लज्‍जास्‍पद अपराधहरू गरेका छन् ।
As gangs of robbers wait to ambush a man, so the company of priests murder on the path towards Shechem, committing shameful crimes.
10 इस्राएलको घरानामा मैले घिनलाग्‍दो कुरा देखेको छु । त्यहाँ एफ्राइमको वेश्‍यागमन छ, र इस्राएल अशुद्ध भएको छ ।
In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing. There is prostitution in Ephraim. Israel is defiled.
11 ए यहूदा तेरो निम्ति पनि कटनी तोकिएको छ, जति बेला म आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूको सुदिन पुनर्स्थापना गर्नेछु ।
“Also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I restore the fortunes of my people.
