Hosea 11
1 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama mofavrema mani'nazage'na navesi'nezmante'na mofavreni'e hu'na Isipitira zamavare'noe.
“U-Israyeli esesengumntwana, ngangimthanda njalo indodana yami ngayikhupha eGibhithe.
2 Hianagi Nagrama kema zamagriku'ma nehuge'za, mago'ane natre'za afete vu'naze. Ana nehu'za Bali havi anumzantaminte'ene kaza osu havi anumzantaminte'ene ofane mananentake zanena ome kremana vu'naze.
Kodwa kwathi lapho u-Israyeli ngimbiza kanengi kwayikhona ehlehlela khatshana lami. Banikela imihlatshelo kuboBhali, batshisela lezifanekiso impepha.
3 Hagi Israeli vahera zamazantera Nagra zamavazu hu'na vano nehu'na, kama vanoma hu avu'ava zana rempi huzmi'noe. Hianagi Nagrama zamazeri knamare'noa zana ke'za antahi'za osu'naze.
Yimi engafundisa u-Efrayimi ukuhamba, ngibabambe ngezingalo; kodwa kababonanga ukuthi yimi engabelaphayo.
4 Nagra nasunku hunezmante'na navesi nezmante'na Israeli vahera zamavare'na vu'noe. Ana nehu'na zamanankempintira karenamare zafa eri netre'na, pri hu'na ne'zana zami'noe.
Ngabakhokhela ngentambo zomusa woluntu, ngezibopho zothando; ngaba njengomuntu osusa amajogwe entanyeni zabo, ngakhothamela phansi ukuba angiphe ukudla.
5 Zamagra ete rukrahera huza Isipia ovugahaze. Hianagi Asiria vahe'mo'za kegava huzmantegahaze. Na'ankure Nagrite'ma e'zankura zamavesra hu'nazagu anara hugahaze.
Kabayikubuyela eGibhithe na, njalo i-Asiriya kayiyikubabusa na njengoba besala ukuphenduka?
6 Hanki rankumazmifina bainati kazinteti ha' vahe'mo'za eme ha' huzmante'za ku'ma kafazmia tapage hunetre'za, zamahe vagaregahaze. Ana hanageno antahintahima retro'ma hu'naza zamo'a amne zankna hugahie.
Izinkemba zizaphazima emadolobheni abo, zizachitha imigoqo yamasango abo ziqede amacebo abo.
7 Na'ankure Nagri vahe'mo'za natre'za rukrahe hu'za nevaze. Ana nehu'za Marerisga hunemo'e hu'za zamagra hugahazanagi, Nagra zamazeri so'ea osugahue.
Abantu bami bazimisele ukungihlamukela. Lanxa bekhuleka koPhezukonke kasoze abaphakamise.
8 Hagi Efraemi vahe'mota inankna hu'na tamatregahue? Inankna hu'na Isareli vahe'mota tamatregahue? Hagi inankna hu'na Adma kumate vahe'ma zamazeri havizama hu'noa zana hugahue? Hagi inankna hu'na Zeboimi kumate vahe'ma zamazeri havizama hu'noa zana hugahue? Nagra nagu'areti tusi'za hu'na nasunkura huramantoe.
Ngingakukhalela kanjani, Efrayimi? Ngingakunikela kanjani, Israyeli? Ngingakuphatha kanjani njengo-Adima na? Ngingakwenza kanjani, njengoZebhoyimi na? Inhliziyo yami iguqukile phakathi kwami; isihawu sami sonke siqubukile.
9 Hagi narimpa ahe'zamo'ma tevema reana atrenugeno evuramina, Israeli vahera zamahe vaga'oregahue. Na'ankure Nagra vahetfana omani'noanki, Anumza mani'noe. Nagra Ruotage hu'noa Anumzama amu'nontamifima nemanua Anumzanki'na, Nagra narimpa aheramante'na e'na eme tamahe hanara osugahue.
Kangiyikwenza okwentukuthelo yami eyesabekayo, kumbe ngiphenduke ngimqothule u-Efrayimi. Ngoba nginguNkulunkulu, hatshi umuntu, oNgcwele phakathi kwenu. Kangiyikuza ngolaka.
10 Mago knafina Ra Anumzamofona amage antegahaze. Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na laionimo'ma nehiaza huna ranke nehanuge'za, mofavre naga'nimo'za zage fre kazigatira zamahirahiku nehu'za egahaze.
Bazamlandela uThixo; uzabhonga njengesilwane. Lapho esebhonga, abantwana bakhe bazakuza beqhaqhazela bevela entshonalanga.
11 Hagi maho namamo'zama nehazaza huza Isipitira hare'za ne-esageno, Asiriati'ma maho namamo'za zamahirahiku nehu'za hare'za azankna nehanage'na, ete zamavare'na kumazamire ome zamatregahue hu'na Ra Anumzamo'na nehue.
Bazakuza bevela eGibhithe beqhaqhazela njengezinyoni bevela e-Asiriya bephaphazela njengamajuba. Ngizabahlalisa emakhaya abo,” kutsho uThixo.
12 Hagi Efraemi vahe'mo'za havigege huza nevazageno, Juda vahe'mofo Anumzamofo kea ontahi vano vano nehu'za Ruotge'ma Hu'nemofona zamagu'aretira hu'za avariri fatgoa nosaze.
“U-Efrayimi usengizingeleze ngamanga, lendlu ka-Israyeli ngenkohliso. LoJuda uluhlaza kuNkulunkulu, kanye lakuye othembekileyo oNgcwele.”
