Hosea 6 (HAT) · Opened

1Pèp la di: -Annou wè non! Ann tounen al jwenn Seyè a! Se li menm ki blese nou, se li menm ankò ki ka geri nou! Se li ki mete san nou deyò, se li ki ka mete renmèd sou malenng nou yo.Come, let us return to the LORD. For He has torn us to pieces, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bind up our wounds.

2Apre de jou, l'a ban nou lavi ankò. Sou twazyèm jou a, l'a fè nou kanpe ankò, n'a viv ankò devan je l'.After two days He will revive us; on the third day He will raise us up, that we may live in His presence.

3N'a konnen Seyè a, n'a toujou chache konnen Seyè a pi byen. Tankou nou sèten solèy la gen pou l' leve, konsa tou nou sèten n'ap jwenn li. Tankou nou sèten lapli gen pou l' wouze latè lè sezon l' rive, konsa tou nou sèten l'ap vin jwenn nou.So let us know—let us press on to know the LORD. As surely as the sun rises, He will appear; He will come to us like the rain, like the spring showers that water the earth.

4Seyè a di: -Nou menm moun Efrayim, kisa pou m' fè ak nou? Nou menm moun Jida, kisa pou m' fè ak nou? Nou renmen m', se vre. Men se pou yon ti tan. Ou ta di yon ti nwaj ki pase anvan solèy leve. Wi, tankou lawouze ki disparèt anvan solèy fin leve.What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? For your loyalty is like a morning mist, like the early dew that vanishes.

5Se poutèt sa mwen voye pwofèt mwen yo pou manyè pini nou. Mwen mete pawòl nan bouch yo ki ta kont pou touye nou. Mwen fè nou konnen sa mwen vle nou fè, mwen mete l' aklè devan nou.Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of My mouth, and My judgments go forth like lightning.

6Mwen ta pito wè nou renmen m' tout bon pase pou n'ap fè tout ofrann bèt sa yo ban mwen. Mwen ta pito wè nou chache konnen m' vre, mwen menm Bondye nou an, pase pou n'ap boule tout bèt sa yo pou mwen.For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.

7Men, yo menm, rive yo rive Adam, yo pa kenbe kontra mwen te pase ak yo a. Lamenm, yo vire do ban mwen, yo pa kenbe pawòl yo.But they, like Adam, have transgressed the covenant; there they were unfaithful to Me.

8Galarad se yon lavil ki plen moun k'ap fè mechanste. Kote ou pase, se mak san moun yo touye.Gilead is a city of evildoers, tracked with footprints of blood.

9Prèt yo menm, se tankou yon bann ansasen k'ap veye moun sou granchemen. Sou tout wout ki mennen lavil Sichèm, se touye y'ap touye moun. Yo konnen byen pwòp tou sa y'ap fè a mal. Atousa yo fè l'.Like raiders who lie in ambush, so does a band of priests; they murder on the way to Shechem; surely they have committed atrocities.

10Mwen wè yo fè nan peyi Izrayèl la yon bagay ki fè m' tranble: Moun Efrayim yo lage kò yo nan sèvi zidòl. Moun Izrayèl yo ap fè bagay ki mete yo nan kondisyon yo pa ka fè sèvis pou mwen.In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing: Ephraim practices prostitution there, and Israel is defiled.

11Men, pou nou menm tou, moun peyi Jida, mwen fikse yon jou pou pini nou pou tou sa nou fè, lè m'a fè moun yo depòte yo tounen nan peyi yo.Also for you, O Judah, a harvest is appointed, when I restore My people from captivity.
