< Hosea 3 >

1 Then said the Lord to me, Goe yet, and loue a woman (beloued of her husband, and was an harlot) according to the loue of the Lord toward the children of Israel: yet they looked to other gods, and loued the wine bottels.
Alò, SENYÈ a te di mwen: “Ale ankò, renmen ak yon fanm ki renmen pa yon lòt, malgre se yon fanm adiltè, menm jan ke SENYÈ a renmen fis Israël yo, poutan, yo vire vè lòt dye yo, e yo renmen gato rezen yo.”
2 So I bought her to me for fifteene pieces of siluer, and for an homer of barlie and an halfe homer of barlie.
Konsa, mwen te achte fanm nan pou yon sòm a kenz pyès ajan ak yon omè edmi lòj.
3 And I said vnto her, Thou shalt abide with me many dayes: thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt be to none other man, and I will be so vnto thee.
Mwen te di li: “Ou va rete avè m pandan anpil jou. Ou p ap fè pwostitisyon, ni ou p ap madanm a yon gason. Epi konsa, mwen va menm jan anvè ou menm.”
4 For the children of Israel shall remaine many dayes without a King and without a prince, and without an offering, and without an image, and without an Ephod and without Teraphim.
Paske, fis Israël yo va rete pandan anpil jou san wa ni prens, san sakrifis, ni pilye sakre, san efòd e san zidòl lakay yo.
5 Afterward shall the children of Israel conuert, and seeke the Lord their God, and Dauid their King, and shall feare the Lord, and his goodnes in the latter dayes.
Apre sa, fis Israël yo va retounen chache SENYÈ Bondye yo a, ak David, wa yo a. Yo va vini avèk krentif kote SENYÈ a e kote bonte Li nan dènye jou yo.
