Hosea 4
1 Oasr kas toasr lun LEUM GOD lain mwet su muta in acn se inge. Israel, porongo ma El fahk: “Wangin inse pwaye ku kulang fin acn uh, ac mwet uh tiana etu ke God.
Zwanini ilizwi leNkosi, bantwana bakoIsrayeli, ngoba iNkosi ilempikisano labahlali belizwe; ngoba kakulaqiniso, njalo kakulamusa, njalo kakulalwazi lukaNkulunkulu elizweni.
2 Elos orala wulela ac kunausla. Elos kikiap, akmas, pisrapasr ac kosro. Ma koluk uh yokelik, ac akmas uh fususeni.
Kulokufunga, lokuqamba amanga, lokubulala, lokweba, lokufeba; bayafohla, lamacala egazi athinta amacala egazi.
3 Ke ma inge kof fin acn uh ac fah wanginla, ac ma nukewa fin acn uh ac fah misa. Kain kosro nukewa ac won uh, oayapa ik, ac fah misa.”
Ngenxa yalokho ilizwe lizalila, laye wonke ohlala kilo udangele, kanye lenyamazana zeganga, njalo kanye lenyoni zamazulu; yebo lenhlanzi zolwandle zizasuswa.
4 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Kowos in tia sufan kutena mwet ku kaelos — kowos mwet tol pa nga lain uh.
Kodwa kakungabi khona umuntu ophikisayo, kangasoli omunye; ngoba abantu bakho banjengabaphikisana lompristi.
5 Kowos tukulkul na ke len ac fong, ac mwet palu elos oapana kowos, tukulkul na. Nga fah kunausla Israel, su nina kiowos.
Ngakho uzakhubeka emini, yebo, lomprofethi uzakhubeka kanye lawe ebusuku; njalo ngizamchitha unyoko.
6 Mwet luk elos ac fah lisyukla mweyen wangin etu lalos keik. Kowos mwet tol, kowos tia pac eteyu, ac kowos pilesru luti luk. Ke ma inge, nga fah pilesrekowos ac nga fah tia akilen wen nutuwos su pangon mu elos mwet tol luk.
Abantu bami babhujisiwe ngokuswela ulwazi; ngoba wena ulwalile ulwazi, lami ngizakwala, ukuze ungangisebenzeli njengompristi. Lokhu usuwukhohliwe umlayo kaNkulunkulu wakho, lami ngizakhohlwa abantwana bakho.
7 “Ke pisen mwet tol uh puseni, ma koluk lainyu uh yokelik pac; ke ma inge nga fah ekulla fulat lowos nu ke mwekin.
Njengokwanda kwabo ngokunjalo bonile kimi. Udumo lwabo ngizaluphendula lube lihlazo.
8 Kowos kasrupi ke sripen ma koluk lun mwet luk, ouinge kowos lungse tuh ma koluk lalos in yokelik na.
Badla isono sabantu bami, baphakamisela umphefumulo wabo esiphambekweni sabo.
9 Mwe kai nu sin mwet uh ac fah orek pac nu suwos. Nga fah kai kowos ac kowos fah eis molin ma koluk lowos.
Kuzakuthi-ke njengabantu abe njalo umpristi; ngizajezisa izindlela zabo phezu kwabo, ngiphindisele izenzo zabo kubo.
10 Kowos fah mongo ac tia kihpi. Kowos fah orek kosro ke nien alu lun mwet pegan in oasr tulik nutuwos, tuh ac fah wangin tulik nutuwos, mweyen kowos forla likiyu in fahsr tukun god saya.”
Ngoba bazakudla, kodwa bangasuthi; bawule, kodwa bangandi; ngoba bayekele ukuqaphela iNkosi.
11 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Wain mah ac wain sasu, kewa na akwelye nunak lun mwet luk.
Ubuwule lewayini lewayini elitsha kususa inhliziyo.
12 Elos sukok kas in kasru sin sie polosak! Ac elos nunku mu soko sikal sak ku in fahk nu selos ma elos ke etu. Elos sisyula. Oana sie mutan su orek kosro ac eis molin kosro lal, elos eisalosyang sifacna nu sin god ngia.
Abantu bami babuza esigodweni sabo, lentonga yabo izabatshela. Ngoba umoya wokuwula ubaduhisile, ukuze bawule besuka phansi kukaNkulunkulu wabo.
13 Elos oru kisa lalos ke nien alyalu fin mangon eol uh, ac esukak mwe keng yen lullul ye sak lulap fin inging uh. “Ke ma inge acn nutuwos elos orek kosro in eis molo, ac mutan kien wen nutuwos elos orek kosro.
Benza imihlatshelo engqongeni zezintaba, batshisa impepha phezu kwamaqaqa, ngaphansi kwesihlahla se-okhi, lephophula, lesihlahla esikhulu, ngoba umthunzi waso muhle. Ngenxa yalokho amadodakazi enu azawula, labomakoti benu bazafeba.
14 Tusruk, nga ac fah tia kaelos ke ma elos oru inge, mweyen kowos sifacna fahsri mutan kosro ke nien alu lun mwet pegan ac orek kisa yorolos. Oana soakas se ma fahk mu, ‘Mutanfahl se ma wangin etauk la ac fah musalla.’
Kangiyikuwajezisa amadodakazi enu lapho ewula, labomakoti benu lapho befeba; ngoba bona ngokwabo bazehlukanisa lamawule, basebesenza imihlatshelo kanye lezifebe zethempeli; ngakho abantu abangelakuqedisisa bazawiselwa phansi.
15 “Kowos mwet Israel finne tia inse pwaye nu sik, lela mwet Judah in tia tafongla ke lumah sac pacna. Nimet alu in acn Gilgal ku Bethaven, ku orek wulela we ke Inen LEUM GOD moul.
Loba wena Israyeli uwula, uJuda kangabi lacala. Lingangeni-ke eGiligali, lingenyukeli eBeti-Aveni, lingafungilithi: Kuphila kukaJehova.
16 Mwet Israel elos srangesr lohng kas oana soko cow fusr. Nga ac ku in kitalos fuka oana sheep fusr in imae?
Ngoba uIsrayeli ujila njengejongosi eliyisiqholo; khathesi iNkosi izabelusa njengewundlu endaweni ebanzi.
17 Mwet Israel elos oan ye ku lun ma sruloala. Tari, sang lungse laltal.
UEfrayimi uhlangene lezithombe; myekele.
18 Ke pacl elos arulana sruhila ke nim wain, elos orek pwar yurin mutan kosro su kukakin manolos; ouinge elos pilesrala fulat lalos ac sifacna akmwekinyalos.
Okunathwayo kwabo okulamandla kusukile, bazinikela ekuwuleni, ababavikelayo bathanda ngokuthanda ihlazo.
19 Elos fah ukyukla oana ke ku lun eng uh okla ma uh, ac elos fah mwekin ke mwe kisa pegan ma elos oru.”
Umoya ubabophele empikweni zawo, njalo bazakuba lenhloni ngenxa yemihlatshelo yabo.
