Hosea 14

1 ‌ʻE ʻIsileli, tafoki kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua; he kuo ke tō ki lalo ʻi hoʻo hia.

2 Toʻo kiate kimoutolu ʻae lea, pea tafoki kia Sihova: lea pehē kiate ia, “Toʻo atu ʻae hia kotoa pē, pea maʻu fakafiemālie ʻakimautolu: ko ia te mau ʻatu ai kiate koe ʻae ngaahi fua ʻo homau loungutu.

3 ‌ʻE ʻikai fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu ʻe ʻAsilia, ʻe ʻikai te mau heka ʻi he hoosi: pea ʻe ʻikai te mau toe pehē ki he ngāue ʻa homau nima, ‘Ko homau ʻotua ʻakimoutolu:’ he ʻoku ʻilo ʻe he tamai mate ʻae ʻaloʻofa ʻiate koe.”

4 “Te u fakamoʻui ʻenau fakaholomui, te u ʻofa mataʻataʻatā kiate kinautolu: he kuo afe meiate ia ʻa hoku houhau.

5 Te u hangē ko e hahau ki ʻIsileli: te ne tupu ʻo hangē ko e lile, pea totolo hono aka ʻo hangē ko Lepanoni.

6 ‌ʻE hoko ʻo lau lahi hono ngaahi vaʻa, pea ko hono lelei ʻe hangē ko e ʻakau ko e ʻolive, pea ko hono nanamu ʻe hangē ko Lepanoni.

7 Ko kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he malu ʻo ia, te nau toe haʻu; te nau toe moʻui hangē ko e koane, pea tupu ʻo hangē ko e vaine: ko hono nanamu, ʻe hangē ko e uaine ʻo Lepanoni.

8 ‌ʻE pehē ʻe ʻIfalemi, Ko e hā te u toe kau ai mo e ngaahi tamapua? Kuo u fanongo, pea mamata kiate ia: ʻoku ou hangē ko e ʻakau mata ko e fea. ʻOku maʻu meiate au hoʻo fua.”

9 Ko hai ʻae poto, pea te ne ʻilo ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni? ʻAe fakapotopoto, pea te ne ʻiloʻi ia? He ko e ngaahi hala ʻo Sihova ʻoku totonu, pea ʻe ʻaʻeva ai ʻae angatonu: ka ʻe hinga hifo ai ʻae kau talangataʻa.
