< Hosea 1 >

1 The word of the Lord, that came to Osee the son of Beeri, in the days of Ozias, Joathan, Achaz, and Ezechias kings of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel.
Pawòl SENYÈ a ki te vini a Osée, fis a Béeri a, pandan jou Ozias yo, Jotham, Achaz, ak Ézéchias, wa a Juda a, e nan tan Jéroboam, fis a Joas la, wa Israël la.
2 The beginning of the Lord’s speaking by Osse: and the Lord said to Osee: Go, take thee a wife of fornications, and have of her children of fornications: for the land by fornication shall depart from the Lord.
Lè SENYÈ a te pale an premye pa Osée, SENYÈ a te di a Osée: “Ale, pran pou ou menm, yon madanm pwostitiye, ak pitit enfidèl yo. Paske peyi a ap komèt gwo pwostitisyon. L ap abandone SENYÈ a.”
3 So he went, and took Gomer the daughter of Debelaim: and she conceived and bore him a son.
Konsa, li te ale pran Gomer, fi a Diblaïm nan. Li te vin ansent, e li te fè yon fis pou li.
4 And the Lord said to him: Call his name Jezrahel: for yet a little while, and I will visit the blood of Jezrahel upon the house of Jehu, and I will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te di li: “Bay li non Jizreel; paske deja nan yon ti tan mwen va vanje san a Jizreel sou lakay Jéhu. Epi sa va koze wayòm lakay Israël la fini.
5 And in that day I will break in pieces the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezrahel.
Nan jou sa a, Mwen va kraze banza Israël la nan vale Jizreel la.”
6 And she conceived again, and bore a daughter, and he said to him: Call her name, Without mercy: for I will not add any more to have mercy on the house of Israel, but I will utterly forget them.
Konsa, li te vin ansent ankò, e li te bay nesans a yon fi. Epi SENYÈ a te di li: “Rele li Lo Ruchama, paske Mwen p ap fè konpasyon ankò pou lakay Israël, pou M ta janm padone yo.
7 And I will have mercy on the house of Juda, and I will save them by the Lord their God: and I will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, nor by horses, nor by horsemen.
Men Mwen va genyen konpasyon pou lakay Juda. Yo va delivre pa SENYÈ Bondye yo, a e yo p ap delivre ni pa banza, ni pa nepe, ni pa batay, pa cheval, ni chevalye.”
8 And she weaned her that was called Without mercy. And she conceived, and bore a son.
Alò, lè li te fin sevre Lo Ruchama, li te vin ansent, e li te fè yon fis.
9 And he said: Call his name, Not my people: for you are not my people, and I will not be yours.
Epi SENYÈ a te di: “Rele li Lo Ammi, paske nou pa pèp Mwen, ni Mwen pa Bondye nou.”
10 And the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, that is without measure, and shall not be numbered. And it shall be in the place where it shall be said to them: You are not my people: it shall be said to them: Ye are the sons of the living God.
Malgre sa, fis Israël yo va tankou sab lanmè, ki p ap ka mezire, ni konte. Men nan plas kote sa te pale a yo menm nan, ‘Nou pa pèp Mwen an’, sa va pale a yo menm ‘Yo va rele fis a Bondye vivan an.’
11 And the children of Juda, and the children of Israel shall be gathered together: and they shall appoint themselves one head, and shall come up out of the land: for great is the day of Jezrahel.
Konsa, fis a Juda ak fis Israël yo va vin rasanble ansanm, epi yo va chwazi pou kont yo yon sèl chèf, epi yo va monte depi nan peye a, paske jou a Jizreel la va vreman gran.
