Ana nehu'za Asiria vahe'ene eri mago hu'za nemani'za, zamazama hu'zama erisagura olivi masavena atrage'za Isipi eri'za nevaze.
Efraimu hujilisha upepo na kufuata upepo wa mashariki. Yeye daima huzidisha uongo na unyanyasaji. Wanafanya agano na Ashuru na huchukua mafuta ya Misri.
2 Ra Anumzamo'a Juda vahera keaga hunezmanteno, zamagrama hu'naza zamavu zamavatera Jekopu nagara knazana zamino zamazeri haviza hugahie.
Bwana pia ana mashtaka dhidi ya Yuda na ataadhibu Yakobo kwa yale aliyoyatenda; atamlipa kwa matendo yake.
3 Hagi Jekopu'a nerera arimpafima mani'neno'a, nefu agiare azerino hara hunte'ne. Hagi ra vahe'ma neseno'a, Anumzane hara hu'ne.
Katika tumbo Yakobo akamshika ndugu yake kisigino, na katika ubinadamu wake alijitahidi kwa Mungu.
4 Hagi agra ankero ne' hara huno agatenereno, agri'ma asomu'ma hunte'nigura zavira neteno antahige'ne. Hagi agra Anumzamofona Beteli eme keno erifore huno keaga nehuno, asunkuma hunteno azama hanigura agri'enena keaga hu'ne.
Alishindana na malaika akashinda. Alilia na kuomba kwa neema yake. Alikutana na Mungu huko Betheli; huko Mungu aliongea naye.
5 Ra Anumzana Agra Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Anumzankino, agi'a Ra Anumzane.
Huyu ndiye Bwana, Mungu wa majeshi; “Yahweh” ndilo jina lake.
6 Ana hu'negu menina tamagra'a Anumzante rukrahe huta eta vahe'ma avesinte avu'avazane, vahe'ma knare hunte avu'ava zanena eme azeri hankavetiho. Ana nehuta tamagra'a Anumzamofonte amuhara huta viho.
Basi tembea kwa Mungu wako. Shika uaminifu na uhuru wa agano, na umsubiri Mungu wako daima.
7 Hagi zagore fenoma atre'za eri'zama nehaza vahe'mo'za, fatgo kazigatira zagoa retro nosazanki, havige hu'za vahe'mofo zana kna'a refko hu so'e huza nege'za mizana te'nosizanki, zamazeri savri hu'za miza nesaze.
Wafanyabiashara wana mizani ya uongo mikononi mwao; wanapenda kudanganya.

Efraimu akasema, “Kwa hakika mimi ni tajiri sana; Nimepata utajiri kwa nafsi yangu. Katika kazi yangu yote hawataona uovu wowote ndani yangu, chochote ambacho kitakuwa dhambi.”
9 Hianagi Nagra Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'na, Isipitira tamavre'na atirami'noa Anumza mani'noankina, ko'ma fugagi noma kita manita e'naza zanku'ma antahimita seli noma kita nemaniza kna huta, ete tamatrenugeta ete seli nompi umanigahaze.
Mimi ndimi Bwana, Mungu wako, tangu ulipotoka nchi ya Misri. Nitakufanya uishi tena katika hema, kama siku za karamu iliyowekwa.
10 Hagi Nagra kasnampa vaheni'afi huvazi'na nanekea nehu'na, avanagna zana rama'a eri zamaveri nehu'na, rama'a fronka kea zamagripi huvazi'na tamasmi'noe.
Niliwaambia manabii, na nimewapa maono mengi kwa ajili yenu. Kwa mkono wa manabii nilitoa mifano.
11 Hianagi Gileati vahe'mo'za kefo avu'ava'ene vahe mani'nazanki'za, knare osu vahe mani'naze. Hagi Gilgali kumate'enena bulimakao afu ahe'za havi anumzantera Kresramana vu'nazankino, Kresramana vu itama tro'ma hu'naza zamo'a hozama rekorinte agupomofo refarega have eri hihi huntazankna huno meno vu'ne.
Ikiwa kuna uovu huko Gileadi, hakika watu hawafai. Gilgali wanachinja ng'ombe; madhabahu zao zitakuwa kama miundo ya jiwe katika miamba ya mashamba.
12 Hagi korapara Jekopu'a (Israeli) Aramu moparega freno umani'neno, sipisipima kegava hia zanteti ara eri'ne.
Yakobo akakimbia mpaka nchi ya Aramu; Israeli alifanya kazi ili kupata mke; naye akachunga kundi la kondoo ili kupata mke.
13 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a kasnampa ne'mofompi huvazino Israeli vahera Isipitira zamavareno atirami'ne. Ana nehuno ana kasnampa ne'mofompi huvazino kegava huzmante'ne.
Bwana akawaleta Israeli kutoka Misri kwa kutumia nabii, naye akawatunza kwa nabii.
14 Hianagi Efraemi vahe'mo'za kefo avu'ava zantfa hu'za Ra Anumzamofona azeri arimpa ahe'naze. E'ina hu'negu menina Ra Anumzamo'a vahe'ma zamahe'za korama eritagi'naza knazana eri zamagofetu nenteno, kumi avu'avazama hu'naza zantera nona huno mika zamazeri haviza hugahie.
Efraimu amemkasirisha sana Bwana. Basi Bwana wake ataachia damu yake, naye atamrudishia aibu yake.
