1. 1HATLè pèp Izrayèl la te timoun toujou, mwen te renmen l' tankou pitit gason mwen. Mwen te rele l', mwen fè l' soti kite peyi Lejip.BSBBSB: When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son.
2. 2HATMen, plis mwen te konsidere l' tankou pitit mwen, se plis li t'ap vire do ban mwen. Yo t'ap plede fè ofrann bèt pou Baal, yo t'ap plede boule lansan pou zidòl.BSBBSB: But the more I called Israel, the farther they departed from Me. They sacrificed to the Baals and burned incense to carved images.
3. 3HATSe mwen menm ki te moutre moun Izrayèl yo jan pou yo mache. Mwen te konn pran yo nan bra mwen. Men, yo pa t' vle rekònèt se mwen menm ki te pran swen yo.BSBBSB: It was I who taught Ephraim to walk, taking them by the arms, but they never realized that it was I who healed them.
4. 4HATPou m' te ka rale yo sou mwen, mwen fè yo wè jan mwen renmen yo, jan mwen gen bon kè. Mwen defèt baboukèt ki te mare bouch yo a. Mwen bese atè pou m' ba yo manje.BSBBSB: I led them with cords of kindness, with ropes of love; I lifted the yoke from their necks and bent down to feed them.
5. 5HATMen yo refize tounen vin jwenn mwen. Se poutèt sa yo p'ap tounen nan peyi Lejip la ankò, se moun Lasiri ki va gouvènen yo.BSBBSB: Will they not return to the land of Egypt and be ruled by Assyria because they refused to repent?
6. 6HATLènmi pral desann sou lavil yo ak nepe nan men yo. Y'ap kraze miray ranpa lavil yo, y'ap detwi pèp mwen an, paske yo fè sa yo pito.BSBBSB: A sword will flash through their cities; it will destroy the bars of their gates and consume them in their own plans.
7. 7HATYo vire do ban mwen, yo fin pran pli a nèt. Y'a rele anba chay ki sou zepòl yo a, men pesonn p'ap vin wete l' sou yo.BSBBSB: My people are bent on turning from Me. Though they call to the Most High, He will by no means exalt them.
8. 8HATNou menm moun Efrayim yo, kouman nou ta vle pou m' lage nou? Nou menm moun Izrayèl yo, kouman nou ta vle pou m' ta detwi nou tankou mwen te detwi lavi Adma? Kouman nou ta vle pou m' ta trete nou tankou mwen te trete lavil Zeboyim yo? Non! Mwen pa gen kè pou m' fè bagay konsa. Tout zantray mwen ap fè mwen mal pou nou.BSBBSB: How could I give you up, O Ephraim? How could I surrender you, O Israel? How could I make you like Admah? How could I treat you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within Me; My compassion is stirred!
9. 9HATMwen p'ap fè sa m' te di mwen t'ap fè lè m' te ankòlè a. Mwen p'ap detwi moun Efrayim yo ankò. Paske se Bondye mwen ye, mwen pa tankou lèzòm. Se yon bondye apa mwen ye. Mwen la avèk nou. Mwen p'ap fè kòlè pou m' vin detwi nou.BSBBSB: I will not execute the full fury of My anger; I will not destroy Ephraim again. For I am God and not man—the Holy One among you—and I will not come in wrath.
10. 10HATY'a pran mache dèyè m' ankò. Lè m'a gwonde tankou yon lyon, y'a tranble kou fèy bwa, y'a kouri kite peyi bò kote solèy kouche a, y'a vin jwenn mwen.BSBBSB: They will walk after the LORD; He will roar like a lion. When He roars, His children will come trembling from the west.
11. 11HATY'a vole tankou zwazo, y'a kouri kite peyi Lejip. Y'a pran zèl tankou toutrèl, y'a kouri kite peyi Lasiri. M'a fè yo tounen vin rete nan peyi yo a. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki di sa.BSBBSB: They will come trembling like birds from Egypt and like doves from the land of Assyria. Then I will settle them in their homes, declares the LORD.
12. 12HATSeyè a di ankò: Moun Efrayim yo kouvri m' anba manti. Moun Izrayèl yo vlope m' ak bèl pawòl. Men, moun peyi Jida yo ap kenbe tèt avè m' toujou, mwen menm Bondye ki toujou kenbe pawòl mwen, mwen menm ki yon Bondye apa!BSBBSB: Ephraim surrounds Me with lies, the house of Israel with deceit; but Judah still walks with God and is faithful to the Holy One.
