Hagi namba 4 knarera nanterame otino noma'arega vunaku keonke'zana retro hu'ne. Hianagi nenemo'a huno, Bretia netenka vugahane.
6 Ngakho bahlala badla banatha bobabili ndawonye. Uyise wentombazana wasesithi endodeni: Ake wanele ulale ubusuku uthokozise inhliziyo yakho.
Anagema nenemo'a higeno'a ana netremokea ete manike ne'zane tinena ne'na'e. Ana ne'zama nenakeno'a nenemo'a otiazamo amanage hu'ne, Muse hugantoanki mago kenage'ene maseneta ne'zana neneta musena huteta vi'o.
7 Indoda isisukuma ukuthi ihambe, kodwa uyisezala wayicindezela yaze yabuya yalala lapho ubusuku.
Hianagi Livae ne'mo'a vunaku keonke'zama'a enerino otigeno, nenemo'a tutu huno, Mago kenagera masetenka vuo, higeno mase'ne.

9 Lapho indoda isukuma ukuthi ihambe, yona lomfazi wayo omncinyane lejaha layo, uyisezala, uyise wentombazana, wathi kuyo: Khangela, khathesi ilanga selitshona, sekuzakuhlwa; ake ulale ubusuku; khangela, ilanga selikhotheme, lala ubusuku lapha, ukuze inhliziyo yakho ithokoze. Kusasa-ke lizavuka ngovivi ngohambo lwenu, uye ethenteni lakho.

10 Kodwa indoda kayithandanga ukulala ubusuku, kodwa yasukuma yahamba, yafika maqondana leJebusi eyiJerusalema. Yayilabobabhemi ababili ababotshelwe izihlalo; lomfazi wayo omncinyane wayelayo.

11 Sebeseduze leJebusi ilanga laselitshonile kakhulu, ijaha laselisithi enkosini yalo: Ake uhambe, siphambukele kulo umuzi wamaJebusi, silale khona ubusuku.
Hagi Jebusi kumate'ma azageno'a kinagasegeno, eri'za ne'amo'a amanage hu'ne. Jebusi vahe ran kumapi umasenune.
12 Inkosi yayo yasisithi kuyo: Kasiyikuphambukela emzini wesizwe ongeyisiwo wabantwana bakoIsrayeli, kodwa sizadlulela eGibeya.
Anagema higeno'a kva'amo'a amanage hu'ne, Ru vahe kumapina Israeli vahe'ma omani'nesia kumapina uomasegosunanki, nevuta Gibea uhanatigahune.
13 Yasisithi encekwini yayo: Woza sisondele kwenye yalezozindawo, siyelala ubusuku eGibeya kumbe eRama.

18 Wasesithi kulo: Siyedlula sivela eBhethelehema-Juda, siya eceleni elikhatshana lentaba yakoEfrayimi; ngivela lapho. Bengiye eBhethelehema-Juda, kodwa sengisiya endlini yeNkosi; kodwa kakulamuntu ongemukela endlini.
Higeno ana ne'mo'a amanage huno hu'ne, Efraemi agona kokampi kumanirega vunaku Juda kaziga Betlehemu kumateti eta emani'nonanagi, vahe'mo'za nozamifina tavreontazageta mani'none.
19 Kube kanti kulamahlanga lokudla kwabobabhemi bethu, njalo kulesinkwa futhi lewayini lami lokwencekukazi yakho lokwejaha elilenceku zakho; kakuswelekanga lutho.
Hagi donkitimofo ne'zane, nagrama nesua wainine bretine, a'nimofo ne'zane eri'za vahe'nimofo ne'zanena eri'nonankita mago zankura upara osu'none.
20 Leloxhegu laselisithi: Ukuthula kakube kuwe. Kodwa zonke inswelo zakho ziphezu kwami. Kuphela ungalali emdangeni.
Anage'ma hazageno'a ana ranafa ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, knarekita nagri nontega vanage'na maka'mota kegava huramantegahue. Hianagi amafina omasegahaze.
21 Ngakho laselimngenisa endlini yalo, lanika obabhemi ukudla. Basebegeza inyawo zabo, badla banatha.
Anage nehuno zamavareno noma'afi vuno donkizmimofo ne'zana nezamige'za zamagra zamaga ome sese hute'za ne'zane tinena ne'naze.
22 Besathokozisa inhliziyo yabo, khangela, amadoda omuzi, abantwana abathile bakaBheliyali, ayizingelezela indlu, etshaya esivalweni, akhuluma kumninindlu, ixhegu, esithi: Khupha lowomuntu ongene endlini yakho, ukuze simazi.
Hagi ne'zama nene'za musema nehazageno'a, ana kumapi'ma hazenkema nehaza vene'nemo'za anama mani'naza nona eme avazagigagiza kafantera vagare vagare hu'za nemasagiza, ana ranafagura amanage hu'naze, E'ima nonka'afima avrente'nana nera avreramigeta monko zana huntamneno.
23 Umuntu, umninindlu, wasephuma waya kiwo, wathi kiwo: Hatshi, bafowethu, ngiyalicela, lingenzi okubi; lokhu lumuntu engenile endlini yami, lingenzi lobubuthutha.
Hagi ana ranafamo'a atiramiazamo amanage huno zamasami'ne, Nafuheta, amanahu kefo avu'ava zana osiho. Na'ankure ama ne'mo'a ko noniafi emani'ne.
24 Khangelani, indodakazi yami eyintombi emsulwa, lomfazi wakhe omncane. Ake ngibakhuphele kini. Libathobise, lenze kibo okulungileyo emehlweni enu; kodwa kulumuntu lingenzi linto yobuthutha.

30 Kwasekusithi bonke abakubonayo bathi: Kakukaze kwenzeke njalo kakukaze kubonwe okunje kusukela ngosuku abantwana bakoIsrayeli abenyuka ngalo elizweni leGibhithe kuze kube lamuhla. Nakanani ngalokho, leluleke, likhulume.
Hagi ana zama kaza vahe'mo'za amanage hu'naze, Isipiti'ma e'nona knareti'ma eno ama knare'ma ehanatiana Israeli vahe'mota amanahu kefo hazenkezana onke'nonaza fore hianki, ama ana zankura na'ane huta tamagesa antahize?
