“Ngalesosikhathi ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wezizwana zonke zako-Israyeli, bona bazakuba ngabantu bami,” kutsho uThixo.

2 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Israeli vahe'ma hapinti'ma zamahe ofrisaza vahe'mo'za hagege ka'ma kokampi manisazanagi knare hu'za manigahaze. Na'ankure Nagra Israeli vahera mani fru zamigahue.

UThixo uthi: “Abantu abasilayo enkembeni bazathola umusa enkangala; ngizakuzanika u-Israyeli ukuphumula.”

3 Hagi ko'ma zamagrite'ma eamama hu'nea Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Nagra Israeli vahera vagaore mevava navesi zanteti, zamavare nagrarega ante'noe hu'ne.

UThixo wabonakala kithi kudala esithi: “Ngikuthandile ngothando olungapheliyo; ngikuhole ngesisa esikhulu.

4 Israeli vahera Nagra ete tamazeri hankavetisugeta tamagra hankave vahe manigahaze. Hagi Israeli vahe'mota vene omase'nea mofakna hu'nazankita, ko'ma nehazaza huta muse zagamera nehuta tambolinia neheta avoa hagegahaze.

Ngizakwakha njalo uzakwakhiwa kutsha futhi, wena Israyeli Ntombi emsulwa. Uzathatha amagedla akho futhi uphume uyegida labathokozayo.

5 Hagi tamagra ko'ma nehazaza huta Sameriama me'nea agonaramimpina waini hoza kasefa antegahaze. Hagi waini hozama antesaza vahe'mo'za, ana hozafintira raga'a tagiza nene'za musena hugahaze.

Uzalima izivini zakho futhi emaqaqeni aseSamariya; abalimi bazazilima badle izithelo zazo.

6 Hagi mago kna ne-eankino ana knama esanige'za, kuma kvama nehaza vahe'mo'za, Efraemi agona kokampi manine'za, amanage hu'za kezan kea hugahaze. Otinketa Saioni agonare vuta Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamofona monora ome huntesanune hu'za hugahaze.

Kuzakuba losuku lapho abalindi bezamemeza phezu kwamaqaqa ako-Efrayimi bathi, ‘Wozani, kasiyeni eZiyoni, kuThixo uNkulunkulu wethu.’”

7 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne. Jekopu nagakura ranke huta muse zagamera huzmanteho. Ana vahe'mo'za maka vahera zamagatere'naza vahe mani'naze. Hagi ranke huta Nagri nagima musema huta husgama hanazana amanage hiho, Ra Anumzamoka, Israeli vaheka'a osi'ama ofri mani'naza vahera zamagu vazinka zamavro huta hiho.

UThixo uthi: “Mhlabeleleni uJakhobe ngokuthokoza; nqongolozelani izizwe ezidumileyo. Yenzani ukudumisa kwenu kuzwakale, lisithi, ‘Awu Thixo, bahlenge abantu bakho, insalela ka-Israyeli.’

8 Hagi antahiho! Nagra noti kaziga moparegatira zamavare'na ne-e'na, mopama ome atre eme atrema hutegatira maka zamavare tru hugahue. Hagi anampina zamavu suhu vahe'ene, zamaga haviza hu vahe'ene, zamu'ene a'nanene, mofavre antenaku'ma nehaza a'nenea egahaze. Ana hanuge'za Israeli vahera rama'a vahe ete mopa zamirera egahaze.

Khangelani, ngizababuyisa bevela elizweni lasenyakatho, ngibaqoqe emikhawulweni yomhlaba. Phakathi kwabo kuzakuba leziphofu labaqhulayo; abesifazane abazithweleyo labahelelwayo; ixuku elikhulu lizabuya.

9 Hagi zamavare'nama ne-esuge'za zamagra zavi nete'za Nagritega nunamuna nehanage'na, zamavare'na ete egahue. Hagi Nagra tinkenarega zamavare'na ne-e'na, knare huno pehe hu'nesia kante zamavare'na ne-esuge'za tanafara osugahaze. Na'ankure Nagra Israeli vahe'mokizmi nezmafana manugeno, Efraemi'a zage mofavreni'a mani'ne.

Bazabuya bekhala; bazakhuleka lapho ngibabuyisa. Ngizabaholela ezihotsheni zamanzi endleleni eyendlalekileyo lapho abangayikukhubeka khona, ngoba nginguyise ka-Israyeli, njalo u-Efrayimi yindodana yami elizibulo.

10 Hagi kokankoka vahe'mota Ra Anumzamofo nanekea nentahinkeno, afete'ma hageri ankenaregama nemaniza vahe'mota amanage huta huama hiho, Israeli vahe'ma zamazeri panani'ma hu'nemo ete zamavareno eteno sipisipi afute kva vahemo'ma sipisipi afutamima kegavama nehiaza huno kegava huzmantegahie huta hiho.

Zwanini ilizwi likaThixo, lina zizwe; limemezeleni emazweni angaselwandle khatshana lithi: ‘Yena owahlakaza u-Israyeli uzamqoqa njalo uzakwelusa umhlambi wakhe njengomelusi.’

11 Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a Jekopu nagara hankavenentake ha' vahe zamimofo zamazampintira ete zamagu vazino zamavaregahie.

Ngoba uThixo uzamhlenga uJakhobe, abakhulule ezandleni zalabo abalamandla kulabo.

12 Hagi zamagrama etesanu'za Saioni agonafi mareri'za manine'za ranke hu'za kezati'za zagamera nehu'za musenkasea hugahaze. E'ina'ma hanazana Ra Anumzamo'ma knare'nare zantamima witima, wainima, olivi masavema, sipisipine, bulimakao afu kevumo'zama anenta'ma ante hakarema hanaza zanku'ene hu'za musena hugahaze. Ana hanigeno nomaniza zamimo'a mago'ma masaventretre'ma hu'nea hozagna hanige'za, mago'enena zamasunku zampina omanigahaze.

Bazakuza banqongoloze ngentokozo ezingqongeni zeZiyoni; bazathokoza ngokuphana kukaThixo, ngamabele, langewayini elitsha kanye lamafutha e-oliva, ngamazinyane ezimvu langamathole enkomo. Bazakuba njengesivande esithelelwa kuhle, njalo kabasayikuba losizi futhi.

13 Hagi ananknafina vene omase mofa'nemo'za musenkase hu'za avo nehagesage'za, nahezavemo'zane ranra vahe'mo'zanena ana zanke hu'za avo hagegahaze. Na'ankure zamasunku zampima mani'naza zana eri atresuge'za musenkase hugahaze. Nagra zamagu'a zamazeri hankaveneti'na zamasunku zana eri netre'na museza zamigahue.

Izintombi zizagida njalo futhi zithabe, enzenjalo amajaha labadala. Ngizaguqula ukukhala kwabo kube yikuthaba; ngizabapha induduzo lentokozo esikhundleni sosizi.

14 Hagi Nagra pristi vahe'mofo zamagu'afina museza antevite nezmante'na, knare'nare zantami vaheni'a antevite zamantesuge'za musenkase hugahaze, huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

Ngizasuthisa abaphristi ngokunengi, labantu bami bazasutha ngokuphana kwami,” kutsho uThixo.

15 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Rama kumatetira ra zavi krafage nehaze. E'i ana zavi krafagema nehiana Reselikino, agra mofavre'agu huno zavira netegeno mago vahe'mo'a azeri amne hugara nosie. Na'ankure miko mofavre naga'amo'za fri vagare'naze.

Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: “Ilizwi lizwakala eRama, lesililo lokukhala okukhulu, uRasheli ukhalela abantwabakhe njalo esala ukududuzwa, ngoba kabasekho.”

16 Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Reseliga mofavre nagaka'agu'ma zavi krafama nehana zana atrenka kavunura eri amne huo. Na'ankure kagrama zavi'ma te'nana zamo'a amne zanknara osugahie. Mofavre nagakamo'za ha' vahe mopa atre'za ete kagritega egahaze.

Nanku akutshoyo uThixo: “Bamba ilizwi lakho ungakhali, lamehlo akho angehlisi inyembezi ngoba umsebenzi wakho uzathola umvuzo,” kutsho uThixo. “Bazabuya bevela elizweni lesitha.

17 E'ina hu'negu henka knare'za fore hugahianki amuhara nehunka manio. Ana hanage'za mofavre nagakamo'za ete mopa zamire egahaze.

Ngakho kulethemba ensukwini zakho ezizayo,” kutsho uThixo. “Abantwabakho bazabuyela elizweni labo.

18 Hagi Efraemi (Israeli) naga'mo'za zavira nete'za amanage nehazage'na antahi'noe. Agazone osu bulimakao afu' anenta azeri fatgoma hiaza hunka sefu taminka tazeri fatgo nehunka ete tavrenka enka eme tazeri knare huo. Na'ankure kagra Ra Anumzana tagri Anumza mani'nane.

Ngikuzwile impela ukukhala kuka-Efrayimi esithi: ‘Wangitshaya njengethole elingathambanga, njalo sengajeziseka. Ngibuyisa, njalo ngizabuya, ngoba unguThixo uNkulunkulu wami.

19 Hagi Ra Anumzamoka kagrira katreta vu'nonanagi, menina Kagrite eta tasunku eme nehune. Hagi tazeri fatgoma hanketa tagra'a kefozama keta antahitama nehuta, tagazegu huta kepri nehune. Na'ankure nehazavema manitama e'nontegatima hu'nona kefo avu'ava zankura tagazegu nehune.

Emva kokweduka kwami, ngaphenduka; emva kokuba sengizwisisile, ngazitshaya isifuba. Ngaba lenhloni ngadumazeka ngoba ngangilehlazo lasebutsheni bami.’

20 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Efraemina Nagra navesinentoa mofavre mani'ne. Nagra knazana amigahuanagi maka zupa nagesa antahinemua mofavreni'a mani'ne. Ana hu'neankino nagu'amo'a agrite me'negu Nagra tamagerfa hu'na nasunku huntegahue.

U-Efrayimi kasindodana yami ethandekayo, umntanami engithokoza ngaye na? Lanxa ngihlala ngikhuluma kubi ngaye ngisamkhumbula. Ngakho inhliziyo yami iyamlangatha; ngiyamzwela kakhulu, kutsho uThixo.

21 Hagi tamagra Israeli vahe'mota kuma'ma atreta vu'naza kana keso'e nehuta, negetama ete esaza avame zana, zafaramina asenteta viho. Hagi Israeli vahe'nimota vene omase mofa kna hu'nazanki ete eho. Ete eta ranra kumatamifi emaniho.

Beka izitshengiso zomgwaqo; umise lezinsika zeziqondiso. Nanzelela umgwaqo, indlela ozahamba ngayo. Phenduka, wena Ntombi egcweleyo Israyeli, buyela emadolobheni akho.

22 Hagi tamagra Nagri mofakna hu'nazanagi, tamagra natreta ufre efre huta zazate mani'naze. Nazupa tamagra atreta rukarahe huta Nagritega egahaze? Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na kasefa'za ama mopafina erifore nehue. E'i ana avu'ava zana a'mo'a vemofo azeri anukiankna hu'ne.

Koze kube nini ulokhu uzulazula, wena ndodakazi engathembekanga na? UThixo uzadala into entsha emhlabeni, owesifazane uzavikela indoda.”

23 Hagi Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a huno, Nagra Israeli vahera ete zamavare'na esuge'za mopa zamirera emanigahaze. Maka Juda mopafine ranra kuma tamimpima emanisaza vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za hugahaze. Ruotage'ma hunenka fatgo avu'ava zama nehana agonamoka Ra Anumzamo'a, asomu hugantesie.

UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi, “Lapho ngibabuyisa bevela ekuthunjweni, abantu abaselizweni lakoJuda lasemadolobheni alo bazawasebenzisa futhi amazwi la athi, ‘UThixo akubusise wena ndawo yokuhlala elungileyo, wena ntaba engcwele.’

24 Hagi Juda mopafima me'nea kuma tamimpima manisaza vahe'mo'zane, hozama ante vahe'mo'zane sipisipi afu'ma avre'za vanoma hanaza vahe'mo'zanena magopi knare huza manigahaze.

Abantu bazahlala ndawonye koJuda lasemadolobheni akhona wonke, abalimi kanye lalabo abazulazulayo lemihlambi yabo.

25 Hagi avesragu'ma hania vahera ete azeri kasefa nehu'na, hankave'ama omanesia vahera ete hankavea amigahue.

Ngizaqinisa abadiniweyo ngisuthise abangelamandla.”

26 Hagi masenena ana zantmima ketena, oti'na keganti kegamama huana, haganentake navu mase'nofinti oti'noe.

Lapho-ke ngaphaphama ngakhangela indawana yonke. Ubuthongo bami babubemnandi kimi.

27 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Hozafi avimza hankregeno hageno rama'a rgama ahenteaza hu'na, mago kna ne-eanki'na Israeli vahe'ene Juda vahe'enena zamazeri amporesanuge'za rama'a vahe fore nehanageno, zaga kafamo'enena rama'a forehu hakare hugahie.

“Insuku ziyeza, lapho engizahlanyela khona indlu ka-Israyeli lendlu kaJuda lenzalo yabantu lezinyamazana.

28 Hagi korapara Nagra navu antete'na manine'na, zamagrira zanefi netrena, tapage hunetrena knazana zami'na zamazeri haviza hu'noane. Hianagi menina navunte'na kegava hunezamante'na, zamazeri trure'na noma hiaza hu'na negi'na, avimazama hiaza hu'na mopafi zamazeri hankaregahue, huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

Njengoba ngabalinda ukusiphuna lokudiliza, ukuchitha lokubhubhisa kanye lokuletha umonakalo, ngokunjalo ngizabalinda ukwakha lokuhlanyela,” kutsho uThixo.

29 Hagi ana knafina amanahu fronka kea osugahaze. Zamafahe'za afu ore'nea waini raga nazageno, mofavre naga zamimofo zamagitera aka hu'ne hu'za osugahaze.

“Ngalezonsuku abantu kabasayikutsho ukuthi, ‘Abazali badle amavini amunyu, ngakho amazinyo abantwana asetshelela.’

30 Hianagi anopa waini rgama negeno agite'ma akaheaza huno, mago'magomo'a agra'ama hu'nesia kumimofo kna'a erino fritere hugahie.

Esikhundleni salokho, umuntu wonke uzafela izono zakhe; loba ngubani odla amavini amunyu amazinyo akhe azatshelela.

31 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Mago kna ne-eankino ana knama esanige'na, Israeli vahe'ene Juda vahe'enena kasefa huhagerafi huvempa kea zamagrane hu hagerafigahue.

Isikhathi siyeza, lapho engizakwenza khona isivumelwano esitsha lendlu ka-Israyeli kanye lekaJuda,” kutsho uThixo.

32 Hagi ana huhagerafi huvempa kemo'a, ko'ma zamagehe'ima Isipi mopafinti'ma zamazante zamavazu hu'na oa zupama zami'noankna huvempa nanekea omane'ne. Nagra nezamave kna hu'noanagi huhagerafi huvempa kema zamagranema hu'noana runetrage'za amagera onte'naze, huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

“Kasiyikufana lesivumelwano engasenza labokhokho babo lapho engababamba khona ngesandla ukuba ngibakhuphe eGibhithe, ngoba bephula isivumelwano sami, lanxa ngangingumyeni wabo,” kutsho uThixo.

33 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, ana kasefa huhagerafi huvempa kema Israeli vahe'enema hanuana, Nagra kasegeni'a antahintahi zamifi nente'na, zamagu'afi krentegahue. Ana nehu'na Nagra zamagri Anumza manisanuge'za, zamagra Nagri vahe manigahaze.

“Lesi yiso isivumelwano engizasenza lendlu ka-Israyeli ngemva kwalesosikhathi,” kutsho uThixo. “Ngizafaka umthetho wami ezingqondweni zabo, ngiwulobe lasezinhliziyweni zabo. Ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wabo, bona bazakuba ngabantu bami.

34 Hagi ana knareti'ma agafama huno vaniana, magomo'a otino tvaoma'are'ma nemanisimofone afu'agananena rempi humino, Anumzamofona kenka antahinka huo hunora osugahie. Na'ankure agi omane vaheteti'ma vuno agima me'nea vahete'ma vaniana maka'mo'za Nagrira nage'za antahi'za hugahaze. Na'ankure kumizamia eri netre'na, ana kumi zamigu'ma nagesa anti ozamisua zanku anara hugahaze.

Umuntu kasayikufundisa umakhelwane wakhe, kumbe umfowabo esithi, ‘Mazi uThixo,’ ngoba bonke bazangazi, kusukela komncinyane wabo kusiya komkhulu, kutsho uThixo. Ngoba ngizabathethelela ububi babo, njalo angiyikukhumbula izono zabo futhi.”

35 Hagi zagema huntegeno feru'ma remsa nehigeno, ikane hanafi taminema higeno nonkuma'are me fatgo hu'neno hanimpina remsa nehigeno, hagerima eri kranto kranto'ma higeno ra agasasama neria Ra Anumzamofo agi'a Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzankino, agra amanage hu'ne.

Nanku akutshoyo uThixo, yena obeka ilanga ukuba likhanyise emini, omisa inyanga lezinkanyezi ukuba kukhanye ebusuku, onyakazisa ulwandle ukuze amagagasi alo ahlokome, uThixo uSomandla yilo ibizo lakhe, uthi:

Hianagi zagene ikane hanafi tamimo'zama Nagrama zami'noa eri'zama e'oriza zupa fananema hazaza hu'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za mopazamia atre'za fanane hugahaze.

“Nxa izimiso lezi zinganyamalala ebusweni bami,” kutsho uThixo, “kulapho lenzalo ka-Israyeli ezacina khona ukuba yisizwe phambi kwami.”

37 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, mago vahemo'ma monamofo agema'ama nofi avazu huno kevanereno, mopama azeri oti'na tro'ma hu'noa agafa'ama kevama retesige'na, ana zupa Israeli vahe'mo'zama hu'naza havi avu'ava zantera namefi huzamigahue huno, Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

UThixo uthi: “Nxa amazulu phezulu engalinganiswa lezisekelo zomhlaba ngaphansi zihlolwe, kulapho engingayilahla khona yonke inzalo ka-Israyeli ngenxa yakho konke abakwenzileyo,” kutsho uThixo.

38 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Mago kna ne-eankino ana knama esanige'za, ama Jerusalemi ran kumara Ra Anumzamo'na nagire ete eriso'e hu'za kigahaze. Ana'ma hanazana Hananeli Zaza Nonema nehazareti eri agafa hute'za vu'za, Renagente'nere Kuma Kafanema nehazare vugahaze.

“Insuku ziyeza,” kutsho uThixo, “lapho idolobho leli ngizalakhelwa kutsha kusukela eMphotshongweni waseHananeli kusiya eSangweni leNgosi.

39 Hagi anantetira nofi'ma avazuma hu'za kesaza nofimo'a vufatgo huno Garepiema nehaza osi agonare vuteno, anantetira rukrahe huno Goa kumate evugahie.

Intambo yokulinganisa izasukela lapho iqonde eqaqeni lweGarebi ibe isijikela eGowa.
