UHoseya 10
1 UIsrayeli ulivini elithululwayo, lizenzela izithelo; njengobunengi bezithelo zakhe wandisa amalathi akhe; ngobuhle belizwe lakhe wenza insika zakhe eziyizithombe zibe zinhle.
Isirayiri yali muzabbibu ogwagaagadde, ogwabala ebibala byagwo. Ebibala bye gye byeyongera obungi, naye gye yeeyongera okuzimba ebyoto; n’ensi ye gye yeeyongera okuba engagga, gye yeeyongera okulungiya empagi ze.
2 Iyehlukanisile inhliziyo yabo; khathesi bazakuba lecala; yona izabhidliza amalathi abo, ichithe insika zabo eziyizithombe.
Omutima gwabwe mulimba, era ekiseera kituuse omusango gubasinge. Mukama alimenya ebyoto byabwe, era alizikiriza empagi zaabwe.
3 Ngoba khathesi bazakuthi: Kasilankosi; ngoba kasimesabanga uJehova; pho, inkosi izakwenzani kithi?
Olwo balyogera nti, “Tetulina kabaka kubanga tetwatya Mukama. Naye ne bwe twandibadde ne kabaka, yanditukoleddeyo ki?”
4 Bakhulume amazwi, befunga amanga besenza isivumelwano; ngakho isahlulelo sizahluma njengokhula oluyitshefu emifolweni yensimu.
Basuubiza bingi, ne balayirira obwereere nga bakola endagaano; emisango kyegiva givaayo ng’omuddo ogw’obutwa mu nnimiro ennime.
5 Abahlali beSamariya bazakwesaba ngenxa yethole leBeti-Aveni; ngoba abantu bayo bazalililela, labapristi balo ababethokoza ngalo, ngodumo lwalo, ngoba lusukile kulo.
Abatuuze b’e Samaliya bali mu ntiisa olw’ennyana ensaanuuse ey’e Besaveni. Abantu baayo baligikungubagira, ne bakabona baayo abaweereza bakatonda abalala, abaasanyukanga olw’ekitiibwa kyayo baligikungubagira, kubanga ekitiibwa kyayo kigivuddeko.
6 Yebo, lizathwalelwa eAsiriya, libe yisipho enkosini uJarebhi. UEfrayimi uzakuba lenhloni, loIsrayeli ayangeke ngenxa yeseluleko sakhe.
Erisutulibwa n’etwalibwa e Bwasuli n’eweebwa kabaka omukulu ng’ekirabo. Efulayimu aliswazibwa ne Isirayiri alikwatibwa ensonyi olw’ekiteeso kye.
7 ISamariya iqunyiwe, lenkosi yayo injengebazelo ebusweni bamanzi.
Samaliya ne kabaka we balitwalibwa ng’ekibajjo eky’omuti ku mazzi n’azikirizibwa.
8 Lendawo eziphakemeyo zeAveni, isono sikaIsrayeli, kuzachithwa; ameva lokhula oluhlabayo kuzamila phezu kwamalathi abo. Njalo bazakuthi ezintabeni: Sisibekeleni; lemaqaqeni: Welani phezu kwethu.
Ebifo ebigulumivu eby’obutali butuukirivu birisaanyizibwawo, kye kibi kya Isirayiri. Amaggwa n’amatovu galimera ku byoto byabwe, ne gabibikka. Olwo ne bagamba ensozi nti, “Mutubuutikire,” n’obusozi nti, “Mutugweko.”
9 Kusukela ensukwini zeGibeya wonile, Israyeli; lapho bema; impi eGibeya emelene labantwana bobubi kayibaficanga.
Okuva mu nnaku za Gibea, wayonoona, ggwe Isirayiri era eyo gye wagugubira. Entalo tezakwatira abakozi b’ebibi mu Gibea?
10 Kusesiloyisweni sami ukubajezisa; izizwe zizabuthana zimelene labo, lapho ngizababopha ngenxa yeziphambeko zabo ezimbili.
Bwe ndiba nga njagadde, ndibabonereza; amawanga galikuŋŋaana okulwana nabo, ne basibibwa mu masanga olw’ebibi byabwe eby’emirundi ebiri.
11 Njalo uEfrayimi ulithokazi elifundisiweyo, elithanda ukubhula, kodwa mina ngedlule phezu kwentamo yakhe yobuhle; ngigadise uEfrayimi, uJuda uzalima, uJakobe uzaziharela.
Efulayimu nnyana ntendeke eyagala okuwuula; kyendiva nteeka ekikoligo mu nsingo ye ennungi. Ndigoba Efulayimu ne Yuda ateekwa okulima ne Yakobo ateekwa okukabala.
12 Zihlanyeleleni ekulungeni, livune emuseni; qhathani ingqatho yenu; ngoba sekuyisikhathi sokuyidinga iNkosi, ize ifike, inise ukulunga phezu kwenu.
Musige ensigo ez’obutuukirivu, mukungule ebibala eby’okwagala okutaggwaawo; mukabale ettaka lyammwe eritali ddime, kubanga ekiseera kituuse okunoonya Mukama, okutuusa lw’alidda n’abafukako obutuukirivu.
13 Lilime inkohlakalo, lavuna isiphambeko, lidle izithelo zamanga; ngoba lithembele endleleni yenu, ebunengini bamaqhawe enu.
Naye mwasimba obutali butuukirivu ne mukungula ebibi, era mulidde ebibala eby’obulimba. Olw’okwesiga amaanyi go, n’abalwanyi bo abangi,
14 Ngalokho kuzakuba khona ukuxokozela phakathi kwabantu bakho, lenqaba zakho zonke zizachithwa, njengalokhu uShalimani wachitha iBeti-Aribeli ngosuku lwempi; unina wachotshozwa phezu kwabantwana.
olutalo kyeluliva lubawuumira mu matu, n’ebigo byammwe byonna ne bizikirizibwa, nga Sulemaani bwe yazikiriza Beswaluberi ku lunaku olw’olutalo, abakyala ba nnakazadde lwe baggundwa ku ttaka n’abaana baabwe.
15 Izakwenza njalo iBhetheli kini, ngenxa yobubi bobubi bakho; emadabukakusa inkosi yakoIsrayeli izaqunywa lokuqunywa.
Bwe kityo bwe kiribeera, ggwe Besweri kubanga ekibi kyo kinene nnyo. Olunaku olwo bwe lulituuka, kabaka wa Isirayiri alizikiririzibwa ddala.
