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