1 UIsrayeli ulivini elithululwayo, lizenzela izithelo; njengobunengi bezithelo zakhe wandisa amalathi akhe; ngobuhle belizwe lakhe wenza insika zakhe eziyizithombe zibe zinhle.
[was] a vine Luxuriant Israel fruit he made for himself when [it] became numerous to fruit his he multiplied the altars according to [the] good of land his they made good sacred pillars.
2 Iyehlukanisile inhliziyo yabo; khathesi bazakuba lecala; yona izabhidliza amalathi abo, ichithe insika zabo eziyizithombe.
It is slippery heart their now they will be held guilty he he will break altars their he will destroy sacred pillars their.
3 Ngoba khathesi bazakuthi: Kasilankosi; ngoba kasimesabanga uJehova; pho, inkosi izakwenzani kithi?
For now they will say not a king [belongs] to us for not we fear Yahweh and the king what? will he do for us.
4 Bakhulume amazwi, befunga amanga besenza isivumelwano; ngakho isahlulelo sizahluma njengokhula oluyitshefu emifolweni yensimu.
They have spoken words they have sworn an oath falsehood they have made a covenant and it sprouts up like poisonous plant justice on [the] furrows of a field.
5 Abahlali beSamariya bazakwesaba ngenxa yethole leBeti-Aveni; ngoba abantu bayo bazalililela, labapristi balo ababethokoza ngalo, ngodumo lwalo, ngoba lusukile kulo.
For [the] heifers of Beth Aven they will be afraid [the] inhabitant[s] of Samaria for it will mourn on it people its and pagan priests its on it they will tremble on glory its for it has gone into exile from it.
6 Yebo, lizathwalelwa eAsiriya, libe yisipho enkosini uJarebhi. UEfrayimi uzakuba lenhloni, loIsrayeli ayangeke ngenxa yeseluleko sakhe.
Also it to Assyria it will be carried tribute to king Jareb shame Ephraim it will seize and it may be ashamed Israel from own counsel its.
7 ISamariya iqunyiwe, lenkosi yayo injengebazelo ebusweni bamanzi.
[will] be destroyed Samaria king its like a twig on [the] surface of [the] waters.
8 Lendawo eziphakemeyo zeAveni, isono sikaIsrayeli, kuzachithwa; ameva lokhula oluhlabayo kuzamila phezu kwamalathi abo. Njalo bazakuthi ezintabeni: Sisibekeleni; lemaqaqeni: Welani phezu kwethu.
And they will be destroyed [the] high places of wickedness [the] sin of Israel thorn[s] and thistle[s] it will grow up over altars their and they will say to the mountains cover us and to the hills fall on us.
9 Kusukela ensukwini zeGibeya wonile, Israyeli; lapho bema; impi eGibeya emelene labantwana bobubi kayibaficanga.
Since [the] days of Gibeah you have sinned O Israel there they have remained not will it overtake? them in Gibeah war on sons of injustice.
10 Kusesiloyisweni sami ukubajezisa; izizwe zizabuthana zimelene labo, lapho ngizababopha ngenxa yeziphambeko zabo ezimbili.
At desire my and I will discipline them and they will be gathered on them peoples when harness them to [the] two (iniquities their. *Q(K)*)
11 Njalo uEfrayimi ulithokazi elifundisiweyo, elithanda ukubhula, kodwa mina ngedlule phezu kwentamo yakhe yobuhle; ngigadise uEfrayimi, uJuda uzalima, uJakobe uzaziharela.
And Ephraim [was] a heifer trained [which] loved to thresh and I I passed over [the] goodness of neck its I will cause to draw Ephraim it will plow Judah it will harrow itself Jacob.
12 Zihlanyeleleni ekulungeni, livune emuseni; qhathani ingqatho yenu; ngoba sekuyisikhathi sokuyidinga iNkosi, ize ifike, inise ukulunga phezu kwenu.
Sow yourselves righteousness reap a mouth of loyalty plow yourselves unplowed ground and [it is] time to seek Yahweh until he will come and he may rain down righteousness for you.
13 Lilime inkohlakalo, lavuna isiphambeko, lidle izithelo zamanga; ngoba lithembele endleleni yenu, ebunengini bamaqhawe enu.
You have plowed wickedness injustice you have reaped you have eaten [the] fruit of lying for you have trusted in own way your in [the] multitude of warriors your.
14 Ngalokho kuzakuba khona ukuxokozela phakathi kwabantu bakho, lenqaba zakho zonke zizachithwa, njengalokhu uShalimani wachitha iBeti-Aribeli ngosuku lwempi; unina wachotshozwa phezu kwabantwana.
And it will arise an uproar among people your and all fortresses your it will be devastated like [the] devastation of Shalman Beth Arbel on [the] day of battle mother with children she was dashed in pieces.
15 Izakwenza njalo iBhetheli kini, ngenxa yobubi bobubi bakho; emadabukakusa inkosi yakoIsrayeli izaqunywa lokuqunywa.
Thus someone will do to you O Beth-el because of [the] evil of wickedness your at dawn certainly he will be destroyed [the] king of Israel.
