Hosea 2
1 Say ye to your brethren: You are my people, and to your sister: Thou hast obtained mercy.
“Ke ke pehē ki ho ngaahi tokoua, ‘Ko ʻAmi,’ pea ki ho ngaahi tuofefine, ‘ko Luhama.’
2 Judge your mother, judge her: because she is not my wife, and I am not her husband. Let her put away her fornications from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts.
Kole ki hoʻo faʻē, kole, he ʻoku ʻikai ko hoku uaifi ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ko hono husepāniti au: pea koeʻuhi ko ia, tuku ke ne ʻave ʻene feʻauaki mei hono ʻao, pea mo ʻene tono tangata mei he vahaʻa ʻo hono huhu;
3 Lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born: and I will make her as a wilderness, and will set her as a land that none can pass through, and will kill her with drought.
Telia naʻaku fakatelefua ia, pea tuku ia ke hangē ko e ʻaho ʻo hono fanauʻi, pea ngaohi ia ke hangē ko e toafa, pea tuku ia ke tatau mo e fonua mōmoa, pea tāmateʻi ia ʻi he fieinu.
4 And I will not have mercy on her children: for they are the children of fornications.
Pea ʻe ʻikai te u ʻaloʻofa ki heʻene fānau; he ko e fānau ʻae feʻauaki ʻakinautolu.
5 For their mother hath committed fornication, she that conceived them is covered with shame: for she said: I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread, and my water, my wool, and my flax, my oil, and my drink.
He kuo fai ʻe heʻenau faʻē ʻae feʻauaki: pea ko ia ia naʻe tuituʻia ʻakinautolu kuo ne fai fakalielia: he naʻa ne pehē, ‘Te u ʻalu atu ki heʻeku kau mamana, ʻaia ʻoku foaki mai ʻeku mā mo ʻeku vai, ʻa ʻeku fulufuluʻi sipi mo ʻeku filo, ʻa ʻeku lolo mo ʻeku inu.’
6 Wherefore behold I will hedge up thy way with thorns, and I will stop it up with a wall, and she shall not find her paths.
Ko ia, vakai, te u feleʻi hono hala ʻaki ʻae ʻakau talatala, pea ngaohi ha ʻā, ke ʻoua naʻa ne ʻilo hono ngaahi hala.
7 And she shall follow after her lovers, and shall not overtake them: and she shall seek them, and shall not find, and she shall say: I will go, and return to my first husband, because it was better with me then, than now.
Pea te ne muimui ki heʻene kau mamana, ka ʻe ʻikai te ne maʻu ʻakinautolu; te ne kumi ʻakinautolu ka ʻe ʻikai ʻilo: pea te ne toki pehē, ‘Te u ʻalu, pea tafoki ki hoku ʻuluaki husepāniti; he naʻe lelei lahi ai ia kiate au.’
8 And she did not know that I gave her corn and wine, and oil, and multiplied her silver, and gold, which they have used in the service of Baal.
He naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo naʻaku foaki kiate ia ʻae koane, mo e uaine, mo e lolo, pea ne u fakalahi kiate ia ʻae siliva, mo e koula, naʻa nau teu maʻa Peali.
9 Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in its season, and my wine in its season, and I will set at liberty my wool, and my flax, which covered her disgrace.
Ko ia te u tafoki, pea ʻave ʻeku koane hono kuonga, pea mo ʻeku uaine ʻi hono faʻahitaʻu, pea te u toe maʻu ʻeku fulufuluʻi sipi mo ʻeku filo naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻene telefua.
10 And now I will lay open her folly in the eyes of her lovers: and no man shall deliver her out of my hand:
Pea te u fakahā ni ʻa ʻene ʻuli ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻene kau mamana, pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha te ne fakahaofi ia mei hoku nima.
11 And I will cause all her mirth to cease, her solemnities, her new moons, her sabbaths, and all her festival times.
Pea te u fakangata ʻene fiefia, mo hono ngaahi ʻaho kātoanga, mo hono ngaahi māhina foʻou, mo hono ngaahi ʻaho tapu, pea mo ʻene ngaahi kātoanga mamafa kotoa pē.
12 And I will destroy her vines, and her fig trees, of which she said: These are my rewards, which my lovers have given me: and I will make her as a forest, and the beasts of the field shall devour her.
Pea te u fakaʻauha ʻene ngaahi vaine, pea mo ʻene ngaahi ʻakau ko e fiki, ʻaia naʻa ne pehē ai, ‘Ko eni ʻae totongi naʻe foaki mai ʻe heʻeku kau mamana: pea te u ngaohi ia ko e vao ʻakau,’ pea ʻe kai ia ʻe he fanga manu ʻoe vao.
13 And I will visit upon her the days of Baalim, to whom she burnt incense, and decked herself out with her earrings, and with her jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, saith the Lord.
Pea te u totongi kiate ia ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Pealimi, ʻaia naʻa ne tutu ai kiate kinautolu ʻae ʻakau namu lelei, pea ne teuteu ʻaki ʻe ia ʻae mama ʻi hono telinga mo ʻene ngaahi teunga, pea ne ʻalu atu ki heʻene kau mamana, ʻo ne fakangaloʻi au,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
14 Therefore, behold I will allure her, and will lead her into the wilderness: and I will speak to her heart.
“Ko ia, vakai, te u tauheleʻi ia, pea ʻomi ia ki he toafa, pea lea fakafiemālie kiate ia.
15 And I will give her vinedressers out of the same place, and the valley of Achor for an opening of hope: and she shall sing there according to the days of her youth, and according to the days of her coming up out of the land of Egypt.
Pea te u foaki kiate ia ʻa ʻene ngoue vaine mei ai, pea mo e teleʻa ʻo ʻAkoli ko e matapā ʻoe ʻamanaki lelei; pea te ne hiva ʻi ai, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻene kei siʻi, pea hangē ko e ʻaho naʻa ne ʻalu hake ai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
16 And it shall be in that day, saith the Lord, That she shall call me: My husband, and she shall call me no more Baali.
“Pea ʻe hoko ʻi he ʻaho ko ia,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Te ke ui au ‘Ko ʻIsi’ ka ʻe ʻikai toe ui au, ‘Ko Peali.’
17 And I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and she shall no more remember their name.
He te u toʻo mei hono ngutu ʻae ngaahi hingoa ʻo Pealimi, pea ʻe ʻikai toe manatuʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi honau hingoa.
18 And in that day I will make a covenant with them, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of the air, and with the creeping things of the earth: and I will destroy the bow, and the sword, and war out of the land: and I will make them sleep secure.
Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia te u fai ʻae fuakava ki he fanga manu ʻoe ngoue maʻanautolu, pea ki he fanga manupuna ʻoe ʻatā, pea ki he fanga manu totolo ʻoe kelekele, pea te u fesiʻi ʻae kaufana mo e heletā mo e tau mei he fonua, pea te u pule ke nau tokoto hifo ʻi he fiemālie.
19 And I will espouse thee to me for ever: and I will espouse thee to me in justice, and judgment, and in mercy, and in commiserations.
Pea te u fakamaʻu koe kiate au ʻo lauikuonga; ʻio, te u fakamaʻu koe kiate au ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, pea mo e angatonu, pea ʻi he angaʻofa, pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaloʻofa.
20 And I will espouse thee to me in faith: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
Te u fakamaʻu koe kiate au ʻi he moʻoni: pea te ke ʻilo ʻa Sihova.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day: I will hear, saith the Lord, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, te u fanongo,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Te u fanongo, ki he ngaahi langi, pea te nau fakafanongo ki māmani:
22 And the earth shall hear the core, and the wine, and the oil, and these shall hear Jezrahel.
Pea ʻe fanongo ʻae māmani ki he koane, pea mo e uaine, pea mo e lolo, pea te nau fanongo kia Sesilili.
23 And I will sow her unto me in the earth, and I will have mercy on her that was without mercy. And I will say to that which was not my people: Thou art my people: and they shall say: Thou art my God.
Pea te u tūtuuʻi ia kiate au ʻi he fonua; pea te u ʻaloʻofa kiate ia naʻe ʻikai ke maʻu ha ʻaloʻofa; pea te u pehē kiate kinautolu naʻe ʻikai ko hoku kakai, ‘Ko hoku kakai’ ʻakimoutolu, pea te nau pehē, ‘Ko homau ʻOtua koe.’”
