< UHoseya 10 >
1 U-Israyeli wayelivini eliqhelayo, wazizalela izithelo. Ngokwanda kwezithelo zakhe wakha ama-alithare amanengi; kwathi ngokuphumelela kwelizwe lakhe wahlobisa amatshe akhe akhonzwayo.
Kpɔ ale si kesinɔnuwo yɔ Israel ɖa! Israel le abe wainka si vu, eye wòtse ku kplanya la ene. Ale si ke wòtse ku geɖewoe la, nenema ke wòtua vɔsamlekpuiwoe. Zi ale si meyra ɖe eƒe anyigba dzi la, zi nenema ke wòliaa legba dzɔtsuwoe.
2 Inhliziyo zabo ziyakhohlisa, khathesi kufanele bathwale icala labo. UThixo uzawabhidliza ama-alithare abo, uwachithile lamatshe abo, akhonzwayo.
Woƒe dziwo te ɖa xaa tso Mawu gbɔ. Wodze agɔ, eya ta ele be woahe to na wo. Yehowa agbã woƒe trɔ̃ƒewo, eye wòagbã woƒe legbawo.
3 Ngakho bazakuthi, “Thina kasilankosi ngoba kasimhloniphanga uThixo. Kodwa loba sasingaba lenkosi, kuyini eyayingasenzela khona?”
Ekema woagblɔ be, “Fia aɖeke megale mía si o, elabena míede bubu Yehowa ŋu o. Ke ne fia le mía si hã la, nu ka wòawɔ na mí?”
4 Benza izithembiso ezinengi, bafunge izifungo zamanga, benze lezivumelwano; ngakho amacala ayanda njengokhula olubulalayo ensimini elinyiweyo.
Wokaa atam dzodzrowo tsɔ ɖoa kpe nubabla dzii, eya ta ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃ anye ɖe wo ŋuti abe ale si aɖigbe miena ɖe agble me ene.
5 Abantu abahlala eSamariya bayesaba ngenxa yesithombe sethole saseBhethi-Aveni. Abantu bakhona bazasililela benzenjalo labaphristi bakhona abakhonza izithombe, labo abathokozela ubuhle baso ngoba sithethwe kubo ekuthunjweni.
Ŋɔdzi ɖo Samariatɔwo le woƒe nyivimawu si le Bet Aven ta. Esubɔlawo le nu xam le eta, eye vodua ƒe nunɔlawo axa nu le esi eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe dzo le egbɔ la ta.
6 Sizathwalelwa e-Asiriya njengomthelo enkosini enkulu. U-Efrayimi uzayangeka; u-Israyeli uzakuba lenhloni ngezithombe zakhe zezigodo.
Ne Asiriatɔwo ɖe aboyo wo mlɔeba la, woatsɔ woƒe nyivimawu la ana Asiria fia, Yareb, abe nunana ene. Ŋukpe alé Efraim, eye Israel ƒe mo atsi yaa le eƒe legbawo ta.
7 ISamariya lenkosi yakhona kuzabhujiswa kuzakhukhulwa kuhambe njengogatshanyana phezu kwamanzi.
Woakplɔ Samaria kple eƒe fia adzoe abe ale si ƒutsotsoe kplɔa futukpɔ dzonae ene.
8 Izindawo zokukhonzela zobuxhwali zizachithwa, kuyisono sika-Israyeli. Ameva lokhula kuzakhula kwembese ama-alithare abo. Lapho-ke bazakuthi ezintabeni, “Sembeseni!” Lakuwo amaqaqa bathi, “Welani phezu kwethu!”
Woagbã vɔ̃ɖinyenye ƒe vɔsaƒe siwo le Aven, eyae nye Israel ƒe nu vɔ̃. Ŋu kple aŋɔka avu atsyɔ woƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo dzi. Woagblɔ na towo be, “Mitsyɔ mía dzi,” eye woagblɔ na togbɛwo be, “Mimu dze mía dzi.”
9 “Kusukela ensukwini zaseGibhiya wenze isono, we Israyeli, njalo ulokhu usele khonapho. Kanje impi kayibaficanga yini abenza okubi eGibhiya?
“O Israel, èwɔ nu vɔ̃ tso Gibea ŋɔli ke, eye nègale ewɔwɔ dzi. Ɖe Gibea ƒe nu vɔ̃ wɔwɔ mena woɖu wo dzi le aʋa me oa?
10 Lapho sengifuna, ngizabajezisa; izizwe zizaqoqanela ukumelana labo ukuba zibabophele isono sabo esiphindiweyo.
Matso ɖe mia ŋuti le miaƒe tosesẽ ta; ɖe miaƒe nu vɔ̃ siwo do agba ɖe mia dzi ta la, madɔ dukɔ bubuwo ƒe asrafowo ɖe mia ŋuti be woahe to na mi, le miaƒe nu vɔ̃ eve siwo dzɔ le ɣeyiɣi ɖeka me la ta.
11 U-Efrayimi ulithokazi elifundisiweyo elithanda ukubhula amabele; ngakho ngizagaxa ijogwe entanyeni yakhe enhle. U-Efrayimi ngizamtshayela, uJuda kumele alime uJakhobe kumele abulale amagade.
Efraim léa be na nyiviwo nyuie, eye blinyɔnyɔ hã dzɔa dzi nɛ; azɔ la matsɔ kɔkuti ade eƒe kɔ nyuie la, eye matsi ɖe tasiaɖam ŋu, Yuda aŋlɔ agble, eye Yakob adzobo anyigba
12 Zihlanyeleleni ukulunga, vunani isithelo sothando olungapheliyo, liqeqebule lomhlabathi wenu ongalinywanga; ngoba kuyisikhathi sokudinga uThixo, aze abuye athele ukulunga phezu kwenu.
Miƒã dzɔdzɔenyenye ƒe ku, ekema miaŋe nye lɔlɔ̃; miŋlɔ miaƒe dzi sesẽ la abe agble ene, elabena azɔe nye Yehowa diɣi, be wòava akɔ dzɔdzɔenyenye ɖe mia dzi.
13 Kodwa lina lihlanyele ukuxhwala, livune ububi, lidle isithelo senkohliso. Njengoba lithembe amandla enu lamabutho enu amanengi,
Ke miede nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔwɔ ƒe agble, miexa nu madzɔmadzɔ wɔwɔ, mieɖu alakpakutsetse; elabena mieɖo ŋu ɖe miaƒe ŋusẽ kple aʋakɔ gã la ŋu.
14 ukuhlokoma kwempi kuzakuba khona ebantwini bakini, ngakho zonke izinqaba zenu zizabhidlizwa njengalokhu uShalimani wabhidliza iBhethi-Abheli ngosuku lwempi, lapho onina basakazelwa phansi labantwababo.
Esia ta aʋawɔwɔ ƒe ŋɔdzi alé wò dukɔ, eye woagbã wò mɔ sesẽwo katã, abe ale si Salman wɔe le Bet Arbel ene; le nyadzɔdzɔ ma me la, wolé nyɔnuwo kple wo viwo siaa xlã ɖe anyi woku.
15 Kuzakwenzakala kanjalo lakuwe, wena Bhetheli, ngoba ukuxhwala kwakho kukhulu. Lapho lolosuku lusisa, inkosi yako-Israyeli izachithwa okupheleleyo.”
Esia anye ale si woawɔ wò, O Betel, elabena wò nu vɔ̃ɖiwo sɔ gbɔ. Le ŋdi kanya gbe ɖeka la, woaɖe Israel fia ƒe agbe ɖa.
