hoshe 14:1-9
14 “hey israel, apne parmeshvar yahova ke paas laut aa,+kyonki tu apne gunah ki vajah se thokar khaakaar gir gaya hai.
2 yahova ke paas laut aa aur usse keh,‘hamare gunah maaf kar de+ aur jo achha hai woh hamse sweekar karaur hum apne honthon se tujhe taareef ke bol arpit kareinge,+ jaise hum bailon ka balidan chadhate hain.
3 ashshoor hamein nahin bachayega.+
hum ghodon par savaar nahin honge+aur fir kabhi apne haath ki banayi cheezon se yah nahin kaheinge: “hey hamare parmeshvar!”
kyonki tu hi hai jo anath* par daya karta hai.’+
4 main unki vishvasghat karne ki beemari door kar doonga.+
main apni marzee se unhein pyar karoonga,+kyonki mera krodh unse door ho gaya hai.+
5 main israel ke liye os jaisa banoonga,woh sosan ke fool ki tarah khilegaaur labanon ke pedon ki tarah apni jadein gehrai tak jamayega.
6 uski tahniyaan door-door tak faileingi,uski shobha jaitoon ke ped jaisiaur khushboo labanon ke ped jaisi hogi.
7 woh fir se uski chhaaya mein raheinge.
woh anaj ugayenge aur angoor ki bel ki tarah fooleinge-faleinge.+
woh labanon ki daakh-madira ki tarah mashhoor hoga.*
8 epraim kahega, ‘moorton se ab mera aur kya lena-dena?’+
main uski sunoonga aur us par nazar rakhoonga.+
main tere liye sanovar ke hare-bhare ped jaisa hounga.
mujhse hi tujhe fal mila karega.”
9 kaun buddhiman hai? woh in baaton ko samjhe.
kaun soojh-boojhvala hai? woh in baaton ko jaane.
kyonki yahova ki raahein seedhi hain,+nek log un par chaleinge,magar apradhi un par thokar khaakaar gireinge.
