< Hoosheeca 14 >
1 Dadka Israa'iilow, u soo noqda Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah, waayo, xumaantiinnii waad ku dhacdeen.
Return, Israel, to the Lord your God, because your sins have brought you down.
2 Erayo ula taga Rabbiga, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Xumaanta oo dhan naga fogee oo si wanaagsan noo aqbal, oo annaguna waxaan sidii dibi qurbaan ah kuu siin doonnaa caabudidda bushimahayaga.
Take words like these with you and come back to the Lord, saying to him, “Please take away all our guilt, accept what is good, and we will repay you with praise from our lips.
3 Reer Ashuur na badbaadin maayo, oo annagu fardo fuuli mayno, oo weliba sancada gacmahayagana mar dambe ku odhan mayno, Waxaad tihiin ilaahayo. Waayo, agoontu adigay naxariis kaa helaan.
Assyria can't save us; we will not ride our warhorses; we will never again say ‘You are our gods’ to the idols we have made. For in you orphans find mercy.”
4 Dibunoqoshadooda waan bogsiin doonaa, oo waxaan iyaga u jeclaan doonaa si ikhtiyaar ah, waayo, cadhadaydii way ka noqotay.
I will heal their unfaithfulness; I will love them freely, for I'm not angry with them any more.
5 Waxaan dadka Israa'iil u noqon doonaa sida sayaxa oo kale, oo iyaguna waxay u ubxin doonaan sida ubaxa oo kale, oo waxay xididdada u mudan doonaan sida Lubnaan oo kale.
I will be like the dew to Israel, they will blossom like lilies, they will send down roots like the cedars of Lebanon.
6 Laamahoodu way kala bixi doonaan oo quruxdooduna waxay ahaan doontaa sidii geedka saytuunka, oo caraftooduna waxay ahaan doontaa sidii Lubnaan oo kale.
They shall send out new shoots, their splendor will be like the olive tree, their scent will be like the cedars of Lebanon.
7 Oo kuwa hadhka hoos joogaana way soo noqon doonaan. Waxay u soo noolaan doonaan sida hadhuudhka oo kale, oo waxay u ubxin doonaan sida canabka oo kale. Udgoonkooduna wuxuu ahaan doonaa sida khamriga Lubnaan oo kale.
Those who live under their shade shall return, they will flourish like grain, they will blossom like the vine, and they will be as famous as the wine of Lebanon.
8 Reer Efrayim waxay odhan doonaan, Bal maxaa mar dambe annaga iyo sanamyo noo dhexeeya? Anna waan u jawaabay oo waan fiirin doonaa. Waxaan ahay sida geed beroosh ah oo qoyan, midhihiinna xaggaygaa laga helaa.
Ephraim, how much more do I have to warn you about idols? I have answered and now I am watching. I am like a tree that is evergreen; your fruit is found in me.
9 Kii xigmad lahu waxyaalahan ha fiirsado. Kii miyir lahuna ha garto. Waayo, Rabbiga jidadkiisu waa qumman yihiin, oo kuwii xaq ahuna way ku socon doonaan, laakiinse kuwa xadgudbaa way ku dhex dhici doonaan.
Who is wise to understand these things? Who has discernment in understanding them? The Lord's paths are right—the good follow them, but rebels trip and fall along the way.
