Okwenenya Kuleeta Omukisa
14 (A)Mudde eri Mukama Katonda wammwe, ggwe Isirayiri.
Ebibi byammwe bye bibaleetedde okugwa.
2 (B)Mudde eri Mukama
nga mwogera ebigambo bino nti,
“Tusonyiwe ebibi byaffe byonna,
otwanirize n’ekisa,
bwe tutyo tunaawaayo ebibala by’akamwa kaffe, ng’ebiweebwayo eby’ente ennume.
3 (C)Obwasuli tebusobola kutulokola;
Tetujja kwebagala mbalaasi ez’omu ntalo.
Tetuliddayo kwogera nate nti, ‘Bakatonda baffe,’
nga twogera ku bintu bye twekoledde n’emikono gyaffe,
kubanga mu ggwe, bamulekwa mwe bajja okusaasirwa.”
4 (D)Ndibalekesaayo empisa zaabwe embi,
ne mbaagala awatali kye mbasalidde kya kusasula.
Kubanga obusungu bwange butanudde okubavaako.
5 (E)Ndifaanana ng’omusulo eri Isirayiri:
alimulisa ng’eddanga,
era alisimba emirandira ng’emivule gy’e Lebanooni.
6 (F)Amatabi ge amato galikula;
n’obulungi bwe buliba ng’omuzeyituuni,
n’akaloosa ke kaliba ng’akaloosa k’omuvule gw’e Lebanooni.
7 (G)Abantu balibeera nate wansi w’ekisiikirize kye,
era alibala ng’emmere ey’empeke.
Alimulisa ng’omuzabbibu,
era alyatiikirira nga wayini ow’e Lebanooni.
8 (H)Ggwe Efulayimu mugabo ki gwe nnina mu bakatonda bo?
Ndimwanukula ne mulabirira.
Nninga omuberosi omugimu, era n’ebibala byo biva mu nze.
9 (I)Abalina amagezi bategeera ensonga zino,
era abakabakaba balibimanya.
Amakuba ga Mukama matuufu,
n’abatuukirivu bagatambuliramu,
naye abajeemu bageesittaliramu.
Hosea 14
New International Version
Repentance to Bring Blessing
14 [a]Return,(A) Israel, to the Lord your God.
Your sins(B) have been your downfall!(C)
2 Take words with you
and return to the Lord.
Say to him:
“Forgive(D) all our sins
and receive us graciously,(E)
that we may offer the fruit of our lips.[b](F)
3 Assyria cannot save us;(G)
we will not mount warhorses.(H)
We will never again say ‘Our gods’(I)
to what our own hands have made,(J)
for in you the fatherless(K) find compassion.”
4 “I will heal(L) their waywardness(M)
and love them freely,(N)
for my anger has turned away(O) from them.
5 I will be like the dew(P) to Israel;
he will blossom like a lily.(Q)
Like a cedar of Lebanon(R)
he will send down his roots;(S)
6 his young shoots will grow.
His splendor will be like an olive tree,(T)
his fragrance like a cedar of Lebanon.(U)
7 People will dwell again in his shade;(V)
they will flourish like the grain,
they will blossom(W) like the vine—
Israel’s fame will be like the wine(X) of Lebanon.(Y)
8 Ephraim, what more have I[c] to do with idols?(Z)
I will answer him and care for him.
I am like a flourishing juniper;(AA)
your fruitfulness comes from me.”
