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.
Pǝrwǝrdigarning kalami — Uzziya, Yotam, Aⱨaz wǝ Ⱨǝzǝkiyalar Yǝⱨudaƣa, Yoaxning oƣli Yǝroboam Israilƣa padixaⱨ bolƣan waⱪitlarda, kalam Bǝǝrining oƣli Ⱨoxiyaƣa kǝldi;
2 Kwathi uThixo eseqalise ukukhuluma ngoHosiya, uThixo wathi kuye, “Hamba uyethatha umfazi oyisifebe ubelabantwana bobufebe, ngoba ilizwe lilecala lobufebe obubi kakhulu ngokweduka kuThixo.”
Pǝrwǝrdigarning Ⱨoxiya arⱪiliⱪ kǝlgǝn sɵzining baxlinixi — Pǝrwǝrdigar Ⱨoxiyaƣa: «Barƣin, paⱨixilikkǝ berilgǝn bir ayalni ǝmringgǝ alƣin, paⱨixiliktin bolƣan balilarni ɵz ⱪolungƣa alƣin; qünki zemin Pǝrwǝrdigardin waz keqip paⱨixilikkǝ pütünlǝy berildi» dedi.
3 Ngakho wathatha uGomeri indodakazi kaDibilayimi, njalo wathatha isisu wamzalela indodana.
Xuning bilǝn u berip Diblaimning ⱪizi Gomǝrni ǝmrigǝ aldi; ayal uningdin ⱨamilidar bolup bir oƣul tuƣdi.
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.
Pǝrwǝrdigar uningƣa: «Uning ismini «Yizrǝǝl» dǝp ⱪoyƣin; qünki yǝnǝ azƣina waⱪit ɵtkǝndǝ, Mǝn «Yizrǝǝl»ning ⱪenining intiⱪamini Yǝⱨuning jǝmǝti üstigǝ ⱪoyimǝn wǝ Israil jǝmǝtining padixaⱨliⱪiƣa hatimǝ berimǝn.
5 Ngalolosuku ngizakwephula idandili lika-Israyeli eSigodini saseJezerili.”
Wǝ xu künidǝ ǝmǝlgǝ axuruliduki, Mǝn Israilning oⱪyasini Yizrǝǝl jilƣisida sundiriwetimǝn».
6 UGomeri wathatha isisu futhi, wazala indodakazi. UThixo wasesithi, “Muphe ibizo uthi nguLo-Ruhama, ngoba kangisoze ngibe lothando futhi endlini ka-Israyeli, ukuba ngibathethelele.
[Gomǝr] yǝnǝ ⱨamilidar bolup, ⱪiz tuƣdi. Pǝrwǝrdigar Ⱨoxiyaƣa: «Uning ismini «Lo-ruⱨamaⱨ» dǝp ⱪoyƣin; qünki Mǝn Israil jǝmǝtigǝ ikkinqi rǝⱨim ⱪilmaymǝn, ularni ⱪǝt’iy kǝqürüm ⱪilmaymǝn;
7 Kodwa ngizakuba lothando endlini kaJuda, njalo ngizabakhulula, kungayisikho ngedandili, inkemba kumbe impi, loba ngamabhiza langabagadi bamabhiza, kodwa ngoThixo uNkulunkulu wabo.”
Biraⱪ Yǝⱨuda jǝmǝtigǝ rǝⱨim ⱪilimǝn wǝ ularning Hudasi bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigar arⱪiliⱪ ularni ⱪutⱪuzimǝn; ularni oⱪyasiz, ⱪiliqsiz, jǝngsiz, atlarsiz wǝ atliⱪ ǝskǝrsiz ⱪutⱪuzimǝn» — dedi.
8 UGomeri eselumule uLo-Ruhama ebeleni, waba lenye indodana.
Gomǝr Lo-ruⱨamaⱨni ǝmqǝktin ayriƣandin keyin yǝnǝ ⱨamilidar bolup oƣul tuƣdi;
9 UThixo wasesithi, “Muphe ibizo lokuthi nguLo-Ami, ngoba lina kalisibo bantu bami, lami kangisuye uNkulunkulu wenu.
[Rǝb]: «Uning ismini: «Lo-ammi» dǝp ⱪoyƣin; qünki silǝr Mening hǝlⱪim ǝmǝs wǝ Mǝn silǝrgǝ [Pǝrwǝrdigar] bolmaymǝn» dedi.
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.’
— Biraⱪ Israilning balilirining sani dengizdiki ⱪumdǝk bolup, uni ɵlqigili yaki saniƣili bolmaydu; «Silǝr mening hǝlⱪim ǝmǝssilǝr» deyilgǝn jayda xu ǝmǝlgǝ axuruliduki, ularƣa: «[Silǝr] tirik Tǝngrining oƣulliri!» — deyilidu.
11 Abantu bakoJuda labantu bako-Israyeli bazamanyana, njalo bazakhetha umkhokheli oyedwa baphume elizweni, ngoba luzakuba lukhulu usuku lukaJezerili.”
Israil baliliri wǝ Yǝⱨuda baliliri birgǝ yiƣilidu, ɵzlirigǝ birla baxni tiklǝydu wǝ turƣan zemindin qiⱪidu; qünki «Yizrǝǝlning küni» uluƣdur! Aka-ukiliringlarƣa «Ammi! ([Mening hǝlⱪim]!)» wǝ singilliringlarƣa «Ruⱨamaⱨ! ([rǝⱨim ⱪilinƣan]!)» — dǝnglar!
