Hosea 2 (TCZCHONG)

1Hicheni teng chuleh, nasopipa chu Ami- ‘Kamite’ chule nasopinu chu-Rahamah- ‘Kangailut khat’ nati ding ahi.“Say of your brothers, ‘My people,’ and of your sisters, ‘My loved one.’

2Nahingnu chu dondauvin, Dondauvin hitobang numei hi kaji ahipoi, keijong amadin aji kahipoi, ajon maiput hi kheldohhen, anoiteni kaha ajon na thangnam jong chu sutheng hen.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.

3Achuti louva ahile keiman avon jouse kahodoh’a akeoseh’a kaum sah ding ahi.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.

4Achate jouse jong kangailut louhel ding ahi, ajeh chu ahung kigil’uva kon’a notia hung kigil ahi tauveI will have no compassion on her children, because they are the children of adultery.

5Ahingnu-u jong jachatna nei louva notia kijoh ahin, anaovop’a jong chu jumle ja helouva chon ahi.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.’

6Amanun aseijin, eingailu midang ho kom'a lhaitange, kaneh ding an, kadonding twi eipeho chule kasilding samul le tupat ponnem eipeho kom'a chetange ati.Therefore, behold, I will hedge up her path with thorns; I will enclose her with a wall, so she cannot find her way.

7Angailu ho kom’a lhai jongleh, anungu aphah jou louding ahitai, amaho chu holle le jongleh mujong amujou louding ahitai. Chule amanun jong asei ding, tun chengting kaji masapa henga kilekit tange, ajeh chu tulai kaumchan sangin chulaija kaumchan anomjoi.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.’

8Hiche numeinu hin kana thilpeh ho anei jouse, sana, dangka, lengpiwi thah, olive thao, kathilpeh ho jouse Baal doi apegam tan ahi.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.

9Ahinlah kachang jong a atphat le kakilelah kit ding, lengpitwi thah jouse jong, kakilelah ding ahi. Asagoh keu hupna dinga kanapeh samul ponsil le tupat ponnem jong kanung lah kit ding ahi.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.

10Tua hi akideipi ho mitmu changtah a, ajamo kahodohpeh ding ahi, ahin kakhut a konna koiman amanu hi eichulhah jou louding ahi.And then I will expose her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and no one will deliver her out of My hands.

11Agolnop kut hihenlang, a lhathah kut hihenlang, akumlhun kut hijongleh kasuhbei ding ahi.I will put an end to all her exultation: her feasts, New Moons, and Sabbaths—all her appointed feasts.

12Alengpi gui jouse kavohsetna, chule atheichang phung jouse jong kavoh heo ding ahi.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.

13Baal doi masanga gimnamtui ahalna ho kasuhset peh’a chule a sana jempah chengsea akivonna, adongma akideipi hotoh kei suhmilna dinga akijepna jeh a talen kapeh ding ahi, tin Pakaijin aseiye.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.

14Ahin keiman hichenu hi kanung jollhah kitna, gamthip noiya kapui mang ding, chule awnem heuva kaki houlimpi ding ahi.“Therefore, behold, I will allure her and lead her to the wilderness, and speak to her tenderly.

15Alengpi leiya kahin lepui kitna, Achor phaicham jong kinepna kotpi phung kasosah ding, hikom'a chu amanun jong anungah lai banga adonbutna, Egypt gam'a ahung potdoh til banga eidonbut ding ahi.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.

16Hiche nikho chu ahunglhun nile Pakaijin aseiye, Ka Pakai tilouva “Kajipa tia neikou ding ahi”.In that day,” declares the LORD, “you will call Me ‘my Husband,’ and no longer call Me ‘my Master.’

17O Israel, namuha konna Baal min tamtah ka suhmanga chule naminphah kittahlou ding ahi chuleFor I will remove from her lips the names of the Baals; no longer will their names be invoked.

18Hiche nikho chule gam'a gamsa jouse le chunga leng vacha jouse toh kitepna khat kasema, thalpi kasuh beija chemjam kalensah louding, chuteng nakichat tahlou dingu, cham le lungmonga naimut dingu ahi.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.

19Keiman atonsot’a kajinua kasem ding nahitai, chutengleh Chondihna le thutah kavetsah ding nahi.So I will betroth you to Me forever; I will betroth you in righteousness and justice, in loving devotion and compassion.

20Hitia chu ken kitahna neitah-a jia kanei ding nahin, nangin jong Pakai chu nahetdoh ding ahiye.And I will betroth you in faithfulness, and you will know the LORD.”

21Hicheni chule, keiman nadonbut inge, Tin Pakaijin aseiye. “Hiche nikho tengleh keiman van mun ho jouse kahouva thu kasei ding, ama hon jong, van mun jousen jong leiset jaha gojuh puma thu asei diu ahi.“On that day I will respond—” declares the LORD—“I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth.

22Chutengleh leiset in jong awgin puma penga asapma adonbutna, chang, lengpitwi, chule olive thaovin jong adonbut ding, Jezeel jaha thu aseidiu ahi.And the earth will respond to the grain, to the new wine and oil, and they will respond to Jezreel.

23Hiche phatteng chule keiman Israel dinga muchi katu ding, keima dinga kakhansah ding. Keiman ‘kangailupoi’ katiho kom'a ngailutna kavetsah ding, chule kami nahitapouve tia kaseiho kom'a ‘tun nangho kamite nahi tauve’ tia kasei ding ahi. Chule ama hon eidonbutnuva, ‘Nangma ka Pathen'u nahi’ eitidiu ahi.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.’”
