1 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kuHosiya indodana kaBheri ngezinsuku zemibuso yabo-Uziya, loJothamu, lo-Ahazi loHezekhiya amakhosi akoJuda, kanye lasezinsukwini zokubusa kukaJerobhowamu indodana kaJowashi inkosi yako-Israyeli.
Pa inge kas su LEUM GOD El sang nu sel Hosea, wen natul Beeri, ke pacl Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz ac Hezekiah elos tokosra lun Judah, ac Jeroboam, wen natul Jehoash, el tokosra lun Israel.
2 Kwathi uThixo eseqalise ukukhuluma ngoHosiya, uThixo wathi kuye, “Hamba uyethatha umfazi oyisifebe ubelabantwana bobufebe, ngoba ilizwe lilecala lobufebe obubi kakhulu ngokweduka kuThixo.”
Ke pacl se emeet LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sin Israel ke oalul Hosea, El fahk nu sel Hosea, “Som payukyak. Mutan kiom an ac fah mutan na aklalfon se, ac tulik nutumtal ac fah oana el. In ouiya sacna, mwet luk uh elos aklalfonyeyu ac sisyula.”
3 Ngakho wathatha uGomeri indodakazi kaDibilayimi, njalo wathatha isisu wamzalela indodana.
Na Hosea el payukyak sin mutan se pangpang Gomer, acn natul Diblaim. Tukun wen se oemeet natultal isusla.
4 UThixo wasesithi kuHoseya, “Methe ibizo uthi nguJezerili, ngoba masinyane nje ngizayijezisa indlu kaJehu ngenxa yesihluku sokubulala abantu abanengi eJezerili, njalo ngizawuqeda umbuso wako-Israyeli.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Hosea, “Sang inel Jezreel, mweyen ac tia paht, nga ac kai fwilin tulik natul Tokosra Jehu ke sripen akmas ma el orala ke Infahlfal Jezreel. Nga fah oru tuh wangin tulik natul Jehu in tokosrala nwe tok.
5 Ngalolosuku ngizakwephula idandili lika-Israyeli eSigodini saseJezerili.”
Ac nga fah kunausla mwe mweun lun Israel in pacl sacn ke Infahlfal Jezreel.”
6 UGomeri wathatha isisu futhi, wazala indodakazi. UThixo wasesithi, “Muphe ibizo uthi nguLo-Ruhama, ngoba kangisoze ngibe lothando futhi endlini ka-Israyeli, ukuba ngibathethelele.
Tulik se akluo natul Gomer, tulik mutan se. LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Hosea, “Sang inel Lo-ruhama mweyen nga ac tia sifil pakomuta mwet Israel, ku nunak munas nu selos.
7 Kodwa ngizakuba lothando endlini kaJuda, njalo ngizabakhulula, kungayisikho ngedandili, inkemba kumbe impi, loba ngamabhiza langabagadi bamabhiza, kodwa ngoThixo uNkulunkulu wabo.”
Tusruktu, nga fah pakomuta mwet Judah. Nga, LEUM GOD lalos, fah molelosla, tusruk nga ac tia oru ke inkanek in mweun — tia ke cutlass ku ke mwe pisr ac sukan pisr, ku ke horse ac mwet kasrusr fin horse.”
8 UGomeri eselumule uLo-Ruhama ebeleni, waba lenye indodana.
Tukun Gomer el liktitela acn natul, el sifilpa pitutuyak ac oswela sie wen.
9 UThixo wasesithi, “Muphe ibizo lokuthi nguLo-Ami, ngoba lina kalisibo bantu bami, lami kangisuye uNkulunkulu wenu.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Hosea, “Sang inel Lo-ammi mweyen mwet Israel elos tia mwet luk, ac nga tia God lalos.”
10 Kodwa abako-Israyeli bazakuba njengetshebetshebe ekhunjini lolwandle elingeke lilinganiswe kumbe libalwe. Endaweni lapho okwakuthiwe khona kubo, ‘Kalisibo bantu bami,’ bazabizwa ngokuthi, ‘bantwana bakaNkulunkulu ophilayo.’
Pisen mwet Israel ac fah oana puk weacn uh, su tia ku in oekyukla ku srikeyuki. Inge God El fahk nu selos, “Kowos tia mwet luk,” tusruktu in pacl fahsru uh, El ac fah fahk nu selos, “Kowos pa tulik nutin God moul.”
11 Abantu bakoJuda labantu bako-Israyeli bazamanyana, njalo bazakhetha umkhokheli oyedwa baphume elizweni, ngoba luzakuba lukhulu usuku lukaJezerili.”
Mwet Judah ac mwet Israel ac fah sifil folokeni ac ma sefannala. Elos ac fah sulela mwet kol sefanna lalos, ac elos fah puseni ac kapkapak in facl selos. Aok, len lal Jezreel fah sie len na pwengpeng.
