¹Na unaute uh, Ammi kiangah gen un; na sanggamnute uh, Ruhama kiangah.

¹“Say to your brothers, ‘My people!’ ‘Ammi’ in Hebrew and to your sisters, ‘My loved one!’ ‘Ruhamah’ in Hebrew

²Na nu uh genpih un, genpih un; ka ji ahi keia, amah pasal lah ka hi sam kei hi; a maitang akipan a kijuaknate leh a nawite kikal akipan a angkawmna te koih mang heh;

²Contend with your mother! Contend, for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her prostitution from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts;

³Huchilouinjaw, vuaktangin ka omsakin, a pianni bangin ka koihin, gamdai bangin ka bawlin, gam keu bangin ka koihin, dangtaknain a mah ka hihlum kha ding hi;

³Lest I strip her naked, and make her bare as in the day that she was born, and make her like a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and kill her with thirst.

⁴A hi, a tate tungah chitna ka neikei dinga; kijuak tate a hih ding jiak un.

⁴Indeed, on her children I will have no mercy; for they are children of unfaithfulness;

⁵A nu uh kijuak a hih jiakin; amaute painun zumhuaitakin a hihta hi; Ka tanghou leh ka tui, ka samul leh ka pat, ka sathau leh ka dawn ding honpia, ka itte ka delh ding a chih jiakin.

⁵For their mother has played the prostitute. She who conceived them has done shamefully; for she said, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.’

⁶Huaijiakin, ngaiin, lingin na lampi ka daikaih khum dia, amah nanna ding in dai ka kai dia, huchiin a lampite a mu kei ding.

⁶Therefore behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she can’t find her way.

⁷Huchiiin a itte nungah a jui dinga, himahleh a pha kei ding; huan amau a zong dinga, himahleh a mu kei ding; huan, Ka pai dia ka pasal masapen kiangah ka kik ding; huaichiangin tu sangin kei dingin a hoihzo ding, a chi ding hi.

⁷She will follow after her lovers, but she won’t overtake them; and she will seek them, but won’t find them. Then she will say, ‘I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.’

⁸A buhlehbal, uain, sathau ka piak leh, a dangka leh a dangkaeng, Baal adia a zat uh, ka hihpungsak chih a theih louh jiakin.

⁸For she did not know that I gave her the grain, the new wine, and the oil, and multiplied to her silver and gold, which they used for Baal.

⁹Huaijiakin ka buhlehbal a lak hunin ka la nawn ding, ka uain a hunin, a vuaktanna khuhna ding ka samul leh ka pat ka bot khe ding.

⁹Therefore I will take back my grain in its time, and my new wine in its season, and will pluck away my wool and my flax which should have covered her nakedness.

¹⁰Huchiin tuin amah itte muhin a zahlakna ka mukhe ding a, ka khut a kopan kuamahin amah a tankhe kei ding uh.

¹⁰Now I will uncover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and no one will deliver her out of my hand.

¹¹A vualnopna tengteng ka tawpsak dinga, a ankuanluite, a kha thakte, a khawlnite, leh a kikhawmpi kulmut tengteng

¹¹I will also cause all her celebrations to cease: her feasts, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.

¹²Hiaite ka kipahman ka itten kei a honpiak uh ahi, a chihna, a grep guite leh a theipi kungte ka suse vek ding huchiin gammangin ka bawl dinga, gamsaten huaite a ne ding uh.

¹²I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees, about which she has said, ‘These are my wages that my lovers have given me; and I will make them a forest,’ and the animals of the field shall eat them.

¹³Huan Baalim ni, huaitea gimlim a hal nite amah tungah ka kan dinga; a bilbahte leh a suangmantamtea kijema, a it a zuiha, kei a hon mangngilh jiakin, TOUPAN a chi.

¹³I will visit on her the days of the Baals, to which she burned incense, when she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me,” says Yahweh.

¹⁴Huaijiakin, ngaiin, amah ka hip ding a, gamdai ah ka tonpih dinga, a kiangah lungmuanhuaitakin thu ka gen ding hi.

¹⁴“Therefore behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her.

¹⁵Huan huai akipanin a grephuangte amah ka pe dinga, lametna kongkhak dingin Akor guam; huan a tuilai nite bangin, Aigupta gam akipana a hongpawt khiak lai ni bangin huailaiah aman la a sa ding.

¹⁵I will give her vineyards from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will respond there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

¹⁶Huai ni chiangin hichi ahi dinga, aIsi na honchita dia; Baali non chi nawnta kei ding, TOUPAN a chi.

¹⁶It will be in that day,” says Yahweh, “that you will call me ‘my husband,’ and no longer call me ‘my master.’

¹⁷A kam akipan Baalim minte ka lamangta dinga, a min un genkhiak a hih nawntak louh ding jiak un.

¹⁷For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and they will no longer be mentioned by name.

¹⁸Huai ni chiangin, gamsate toh, van vasate toh, leia bokvaka pai thilte toh amau adingin thukhun ka bawl ding; thalpeu leh namsau leh kidouna gam akipan ka hihmangta dinga, galmuangtakin amaute ka kualsakta ding hi.

¹⁸In that day I will make a covenant for them with the animals of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the creeping things of the ground. I will break the bow, the sword, and the battle out of the land, and will make them lie down safely.

¹⁹Huan, kei dingin khantawnin nang ka honkhamta ding; ahi, diktatna leh, vaihawmna leh, itna siamna leh chitnain keia dingin nang ka honkham ding hi.

¹⁹I will betroth you to me forever. Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion.

²⁰Ginomnain keia dingin ka honkham hial dinga; huan TOUPA na thei ding hi.

²⁰I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness; and you shall know Yahweh.

²¹Huan huai ni chiangin hichi a honghi dinga, Ka dawng ding, vante ka dawn dinga, amau lei a dawng ding uh, TOUPAN a chi.

²¹It will happen in that day, I will respond,” says Yahweh, “I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth;

²²Huan leiin buhlehbal leh, uain leh, sathau a dawng ding a, huan amau Jezreel a dawng ding uh.Huan lei ah kei din amah ka tuh dinga; chitna tanglounu tungah chitna ka nei ding; ka mite hiloute kiangah, Ka mite na hi, ka chi dinga; huan amau, Ka Pathian na hi, hon chi ding uhi.

²²and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will respond to Jezreel.

²³Huan lei ah kei din amah ka tuh dinga; chitna tanglounu tungah chitna ka nei ding; ka mite hiloute kiangah, Ka mite na hi, ka chi dinga; huan amau, Ka Pathian na hi, hon chi ding uhi.

²³I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; and I will tell those who were not my people, ‘You are my people;’ and they will say, ‘My God!’”
