1 Shamarawan (Samaria) will bear her asham (guilt); for she has marah (rebelled) against her Alahayam (). They will napal (fall / be cast down) by the charab (sword). Their iwalal (infants) will be ratash (dashed) in pieces, and their pregnant women will be baqai (ripped) open.”
2 Yashar-Al (Israel), return to Yahawah () your Alahayam (); for you have napal (fall / be cast down) because of your sin.
3 Shawab (turn back / repent) words with you, and shawab (turn back / repent) to Yahawah (). Tell him, “Forgive all our iwan (guilt/iniquity), and accept that which is good: so we offer our lips like bulls.
4 Ashawar (Assyria) can't save us. We won't ride on horses; neither will we amar (spoke) any more to the dabar (word / matter) of our hands, ‘Our Alahayam ()!’ For in you the fatherless finds mercy.”
5 “I will heal their waywardness. I will racham (show mercy / love) them freely; for my anger is turned away from him.
6 I will be like the dew to Yashar-Al (Israel). He will blossom like the lily, and send down his roots like Labanawan (Lebanon).
7 His branches will parach (spread), and his beauty will be like the olive tree, and his fragrance like Labanawan (Lebanon).
8 Men will live in his shade. They will revive like the grain, and blossom like the vine. Their fragrance will be like the wine of Labanawan (Lebanon).
9 Aparayam (Ephraim), what have I to do any more with idols? I shawab (turn back / repent), and will take care of him. I am like a green fir tree; from me your fruit is found.”
