UHoseya 6
1 “Wozani sibuyele kuThixo. Usesidabule saba yizicucu kodwa uzaselapha; usilimazile kodwa uzawabopha amanxeba ethu.
“Haʻu, pea tuku ke tau tafoki kia Sihova: he kuo ne haeʻi, pea te ne fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu; kuo ne taaʻi, pea te ne toe fakamaʻopoʻopo.
2 Emva kwensuku ezimbili uzasivuselela; ngosuku lwesithathu uzasibuyisela ukuze sihlale lapho akhona.
Hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe ua te ne toe fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu: ʻi hono tolu ʻoe ʻaho te ne toe fokotuʻu ʻakitautolu, pea te tau moʻui ʻi hono ʻao.
3 Kasimamukeleni uThixo; kasiqiniseni ukumamukela. Ngoqotho njengoba ilanga liphuma, uzabonakala; uzakuza kithi njengezulu lebusika, lanjengezulu lentwasa elithambisa umhlaba.”
Pea te tau toki ʻilo ʻoka tau ka muimui atu ke ʻilo ʻa Sihova: ko ʻene ʻalu atu ʻoku teuteu ʻo hangē ko e pongipongi; pea te ne hoko kiate kitautolu ʻo hangē ko e ʻuha, ko e ʻuha mui mo e ʻuha muʻa ki he kelekele.
4 “Ngingenzani ngawe, Efrayimi na? Ngingenzani ngawe, Juda na? Uthando lwenu lunjengenkungu yekuseni, lunjengamazolo ekuseni anyamalalayo.
“ʻE ʻIfalemi, Ko e hā te u fai kiate koe? ʻE Siuta, ko e hā te u fai kiate koe? He ko hoʻo lelei ʻoku hangē ko e ʻao ʻoe pongipongi, pea hangē ko e hahau ʻoe hengihengi ʻoku mole atu.
5 Ngakho ngaliqumaquma ngabaphrofethi bami, ngalibulala ngamazwi omlomo wami; ukwahlulela kwami kwaphazima njengombane phezu kwenu.
Ko ia kuo u taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he kau palōfita; kuo u tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi lea ʻa hoku ngutu: pea ko hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau ʻoku hangē ko e maama ʻoku ulo atu.
6 Ngoba mina ngifuna isihawu, hatshi umhlatshelo, lokwamukela uNkulunkulu kuleminikelo yokutshiswa.
He kuo u holi ki he ʻaloʻofa, kae ʻikai ki he feilaulau; pea ko e ʻilo ki he ʻOtua ʻo lahi hake ʻi he feilaulau.
7 Njengo-Adamu, sebesephule isivumelwano babengathembekanga khonale.
Kae hangē ko e tangata kuo nau maumauʻi ʻae fuakava: kuo nau fai kākā ʻi ai kiate au.
8 IGiliyadi lidolobho labantu abaxhwalileyo. Lingcolile ngezinyathelo zegazi
Ko e kolo ʻokinautolu ʻoku fai kovi ʻa Kiliati, pea ʻoku ʻuli ʻi he toto.
9 Njengezigebenga zicathamela umuntu, zenzanjalo izigangi zabaphristi; zibulala abantu emgwaqweni oya eShekhemu zisenza izinto ezimbi.
Hangē ʻoku tatali ʻe he fakataha ʻoe kau kaihaʻa ki ha tangata, ʻoku pehē ʻae fai fakapō ʻi he hala ʻe he fakataha ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki ʻo loto tatau pe: he ʻoku nau fai angaʻuli.
10 Sengibone into etshaqisayo endlini ka-Israyeli. U-Efrayimi uwela khonapho, lo-Israyeli ungcolisiwe.
Kuo u mamata ki ha meʻa fakailifia ʻi he fale ʻo ʻIsileli: ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae feʻauaki ʻa ʻIfalemi, kuo ʻuliʻi ʻa ʻIsileli.
11 Lakuwe futhi Juda, ukuvuna sekulungiselwe. Lapho ngingabuyisela inotho yabantu bami.
“Kuo tuʻutuʻuni foki, ʻe Siuta, ha ututaʻu kiate koe, ʻi heʻene liliu ʻae pōpula ʻa hoku kakai.
