Hosea 2 (MSY2020)

1Datɨrɨghɨn, ia Israelia, uan adarazigh nɨghnɨgh, ziar kamning me darɨgh, “Ia Godɨn Gumazamizibara,” ko “God Bar Ia Gifonge.”“Say of your brothers, ‘My people,’ and of your sisters, ‘My loved one.’

2Ezɨ God akar isɨn zuim uan gumazamizibagh amua ghaze: “O nan boriba, ian amebam ua nan amuimɨn mɨn itir puvatɨ, ezɨ kɨ uam an pamɨn mɨn itir puvatɨ. Ia pamten, a mɨkɨm a gakaghontɨ, a uan arazir tintinimɨn gumaziba ko akuim atakigh. A ua tuavimɨn amizimɨn arazim damuan markɨ.Rebuke your mother, rebuke her, for she is not My wife, and I am not her husband. Let her remove the adultery from her face and the unfaithfulness from between her breasts.

3An arazir kam ateghan koghtɨ, kɨ an korotiaba sueghtɨ, a bibiamra ikɨ bar aghumsigham. Kɨ a damightɨ, a nguazir bar kuramɨn mɨn otogham. Nguazir kam, bar mɨsɨngizɨ temeba ko biziba an aghuir puvatɨ, egha dɨpar apiba an puvatɨ. Arazir kamɨn kɨ a gasɨghasigham.Otherwise, I will strip her naked and expose her like the day of her birth. I will make her like a desert and turn her into a parched land, and I will let her die of thirst.

4An boriba, me tuavimɨn amizim otezir boribar mɨn iti. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, kɨ an boribar apangkuvan kogham.I will have no compassion on her children, because they are the children of adultery.

5Men amebar kam uan pam ategha, tintinibar gumazir igharaziba ko akua navim asegha aghumsɨziba puvatɨ, egha kamaghɨn mɨgei, ‘Kɨ gumazir kɨ ifongezibar gɨn mangam. Me dɨpaba ko, dagheba ko, korotiaba ko, olivɨn borem ko, wainɨn dɨpaba ko, bizir maba sara na ganɨdi.’For their mother has played the harlot and has conceived them in disgrace. For she thought, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give me bread and water, wool and linen, oil and drink.’

6“Kamaghɨn amizɨ, kɨ temer dɨkoniba itiba inigh an tuavim apɨrigham. Kɨ dɨvazimɨn mɨn an tuavim avɨnigham, eghtɨ a gumazir kaba bagh mangan kogham.Therefore, behold, I will hedge up her path with thorns; I will enclose her with a wall, so she cannot find her way.

7A ifongezir gumazibar gɨn ivegh mangɨ, egh me batoghan kogham. A me burisɨ mangɨva, egh men apighan kogham. Egh a kamaghɨn mɨkɨmam, ‘Kɨ faragha deraghavɨra iti, ezɨ datɨrɨghɨn puvatɨ. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, kɨ ti uamategh uan par faragha ikezim bagh mangam.’She will pursue her lovers but not catch them; she will seek them but not find them. Then she will say, ‘I will return to my first husband, for then I was better off than now.’

8“A kamaghɨn foghan aghua, kɨ uabɨ dagheba ko, wainɨn dɨpam ko, olivɨn borem ko, silva ko, gol ko, bizir maba sara bar a ganɨngi. Ezɨ puvatɨ, a bizir bar aghuir kaba inigha ghua asem Balɨn ziam fe.For she does not acknowledge that it was I who gave her grain, new wine, and oil, who lavished on her silver and gold—which they crafted for Baal.

9Kamaghɨn amizɨ, dagheba asiamin dughiam otoghtɨ, kɨ dagheba ko wainɨn a ganɨngiziba, kɨ ua da inigham. Egh korotiaba ko bizir aghuir a ganɨngiziba, kɨ ua da inigham.Therefore I will take back My grain in its time and My new wine in its season; I will take away My wool and linen, which were given to cover her nakedness.

10Egh a ifongezir gumazibar damazimɨn, kɨ an korotiaba suegham. Eghtɨ gumazitam nan dafarimɨn uam a inighan kogham.And then I will expose her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and no one will deliver her out of My hands.

11Dughiar ekiar a bar akongeziba, kɨ bar da agɨvagham. Dughiar ekiar kaba kamakɨn. Kar, dughiar ekiar zurara azeniba bar dar otiviba, ko, iakɨnir igiaba, ko, Sabatɨn dughiaba, ko, Godɨn ziam fer dughiar igharaziba sara.I will put an end to all her exultation: her feasts, New Moons, and Sabbaths—all her appointed feasts.

12Kɨ an wainɨn ikarɨziba ko fighɨn temeba kɨ bar dagh asɨghasɨgham. A ghaze, a gifongezir gumaziba temer kaba isa an ivezimɨn mɨn a ganɨngi. Eghtɨ asɨzir atiaba izɨ wainɨn azeniba ko fighɨn temebagh asɨghasigham. Eghtɨ wain ko fighɨn azenir kaba ruarir kɨnibar otivigham.I will destroy her vines and fig trees, which she thinks are the wages paid by her lovers. So I will make them into a thicket, and the beasts of the field will devour them.

13A dughiar ruarimɨn na gɨnamada, egha ghua mɨgharir mughuriar aghuim zuir ofaba isa asem Bal bagha ofabagh ami. Egha kurkazir aghuaribagh amua gumazir a ifongezibar gɨn arui. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, kɨ ivezir kuram a danigham. Kɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God, kɨ kamaghɨn mɨgei.”I will punish her for the days of the Baals when she burned incense to them, when she adorned herself with rings and jewelry, and went after her lovers. But Me she forgot,” declares the LORD.

14Egha Ikiavɨra Itir God uam akar isɨn zuimɨn kamaghɨn mɨgei: “Kɨ akar aghuimɨn amizir kam mɨkɨmɨva, egh uam a gekuigh gumazamiziba puvatɨzir danganimɨn mangɨgham. Egh an asughasugh anepezeperɨva, kamaghɨn a mɨkɨmam, ‘Kɨ bar nɨ gifonge.’“Therefore, behold, I will allure her and lead her to the wilderness, and speak to her tenderly.

15Egh kɨ wainɨn azeniba isɨ ua a danɨngam. Egh danganir zarir kam me kamaghɨn a dɨbori, ‘Osɨmtɨzibar Danganir Zarim,’ kɨ a giragham, eghtɨ a bizir aghuir gɨn izamiba bagh mɨzuamamin danganimɨn otogham. Eghtɨ nan amuim danganir kamɨn aven ikɨ nan akamɨn gɨn mangam, mati a fomɨra igiamra itir dughiamɨn, Isip ategha izava amizɨ mokɨn.”There I will give back her vineyards and make the Valley of Achor into a gateway of hope. There she will respond as she did in the days of her youth, as in the day she came up out of Egypt.

16Egha Ikiavɨra Itir God kamaghɨn Israelia mɨgei: “Ia dughiar kamɨn, nan amuimɨn mɨn ikɨ kamaghɨn na dɨpon suam, ‘Nɨ nan pam.’ Egh ia ua kamaghɨn na gɨnɨghnɨghan kogh suam, ‘Nɨ aser kam Bal, nɨ nan Ekiam.’ Puvatɨ.In that day,” declares the LORD, “you will call Me ‘my Husband,’ and no longer call Me ‘my Master.’

17Kɨ ia ateghtɨ, ia amizir kamɨn mɨn uam asem Balɨn ziam dɨponan kogham. Bar puvatɨgham.For I will remove from her lips the names of the Baals; no longer will their names be invoked.

18“Dughiar kamɨn, kɨ asɨzir atiaba ko, kuruziba ko, kuaraziba koma akar dɨkɨrɨzir gavgavim damigham. Eghtɨ da nan gumazamizibagh asɨghasɨghan kogham. Egh mɨdorozim gamir biziba, mati barir piba ko, afuziba, kɨ bar ada apɨrarigham. Eghtɨ nan gumazamiziba navir amɨrizimɨn ikɨ nguazir kamɨn ikiam, egh uam atiatingan kogham.On that day I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the creatures that crawl on the ground. And I will abolish bow and sword and battle in the land, and will make them lie down in safety.

19“Israel, kɨ nɨ damightɨ nɨ nan amuimɨn mɨn otogham, egh nɨ kamaghɨra ikɨ mamaghɨra ikiam. Kɨ arazir aghuim ko guizɨn arazimɨn nɨ damuam, egh nɨ ateghan kogham. Egh nɨ gifuegh mamaghɨra ikiam, egh nɨn apangkuvɨra ikiam.So I will betroth you to Me forever; I will betroth you in righteousness and justice, in loving devotion and compassion.

20Kɨ uan akar dɨkɨrɨzimɨn gɨntɨgham, eghtɨ nɨ nan amuimɨn mɨn ikɨ mamaghɨra ikiam. Egh nɨ fogh suam, kɨrara, kɨ nɨn Ikiavɨra Itir God.And I will betroth you in faithfulness, and you will know the LORD.”

21Kɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God, kɨ dughiar kamɨn uan gumazamiziba Israelian azangsɨziba baragham. Egh amozim amadaghtɨ, a nguazim gizam. Eghtɨ men azenibar dagheba ko, wainba ko, olivɨn temer me borem isiba, bɨva avɨrasemegham, mati Jesrilɨn azenir aghuim.“On that day I will respond—” declares the LORD—“I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth.

23Egh kɨ uan gumazamiziba nguazir kamɨn me arightɨ, me aghung azenir aghuir kɨ ingarizimɨn mɨn ikiam. Kɨ faragha kamaghɨn uan gumazamizibav gɨa ghaze, ‘Kɨ Ia Gifongezir Puvatɨ.’ Egh gɨn kɨ bar me gifuegham. Kɨ faragha kamaghɨn me mɨgei, ‘Ia Nan Gumazamiziba Puvatɨ.’ Egh gɨn kɨ kamaghɨn me mɨkɨm suam, ‘Ia nan gumazamizibara.’ Eghtɨ me kamaghɨn nan akam ikaragham, ‘Nɨ en God.’ ”And I will sow her as My own in the land, and I will have compassion on ‘No Compassion.’ I will say to those called ‘Not My People,’ ‘You are My people,’ and they will say, ‘You are my God.’”
