Hosea 3

1 Hili ia naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Toe ʻalu, pea ke ʻofa ki ha fefine ʻoku ʻofeina ʻi hono kāinga, ka ko e fefine feʻauaki, ʻo tatau pe mo e ʻofa ʻa Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻakinautolu ʻoku sio ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, pea ʻoku manako ki he ngaahi ipu uaine.”

And he said Yahweh to me again go love a woman [who] is loved of a companion and [who] commits adultery as loves Yahweh [the] people of Israel and they [are] turning to gods other and [are] loving cakes of grapes.

2 Ko ia naʻaku fakatau ia kiate au ʻaki ʻae konga siliva ʻe hongofulu ma nima, mo e homa paʻale, pea mo hono vaeua ʻoe homa paʻale:

And I bought her for myself for fif-teen silver and a homer of barley and a lethech of barley.

3 Pea naʻaku pehē kiate ia, “Te ke nofomaʻu kiate au ʻo ʻaho lahi; ka ʻe ʻikai te ke fai ʻae feʻauaki, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻi ha tangata kehe; pea te u ʻiate koe pe au.”

And I said to her days many you will dwell to me not you must prostitute yourself and not you must belong to a man and also I to you.

4 Koeʻuhi ʻe lahi ʻae ʻaho ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli taʻehanautuʻi, pea taʻehaʻeiki, pea taʻehafeilaulau, pea taʻehafeilaulauʻanga, pea taʻehaʻefoti, pe ha telafimi.

For - days many they will dwell [the] people of Israel there not [will be] a king and there not [will be] a prince and there not [will be] sacrifice and there not [will be] a pillar and there not [will be] an ephod and teraphim.

5 Hili ia ʻe tafoki ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea te nau kumi kia Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, pea kia Tevita ko honau tuʻi; pea [te nau ]manavahē kia Sihova mo ʻene angalelei ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ki mui.

After they will return [the] people of Israel and they will seek Yahweh God their and David king their and they will be in dread to Yahweh and to goodness his at [the] end of the days.
