Hooseʼaa 14
1 Yaa Israaʼel, gara Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiitti deebiʼi. Ati sababii cubbuu keetiitiif gufatteetii!
Buyela, we Israyeli, kuThixo uNkulunkulu wakho. Izono zakho yizo ezikuwisileyo!
2 Dubbicha fudhadhuutii gara Waaqayyoo deebiʼi. Akkanas jedhiin: “Cubbuu keenya hunda nuuf dhiisi; akka nu ija arraba keenyaa siif dhiʼeessinuuf, arjummaadhaan nu simadhu.
Thatha amazwi ubuyele kuThixo. Uthi kuye, “Sithethelele zonke izono zethu njalo usamukele ngomusa ukuba sinikele isithelo sezindebe zethu.
3 Asoor nu oolchuu hin dandaʼu; nu fardeen lolaa hin yaabbannu. Nu siʼachi deebinee, waan harki keenya hojjeteen, ‘Waaqota keenya’ hin jennu; daaʼimman abbaa hin qabne gara laafina sirraa argatuutii.”
I-Asiriya ayingeke isikhulule; kasiyikugada amabhiza empi. Kasisoze siphinde sithi, ‘Onkulunkulu bethu’ kulokho okwenziwa yizandla zethu, ngoba abazintandane bathola isihawu kuwe.”
4 “Ani gantummaa isaanii nan fayyisa, toluman isaan jaalladha; aariin koo isaan irraa deebiʼeeraatii.
“Ngizakwelapha ubuphakaphaka babo ngibathande ngokukhululeka, ngoba ukuthukuthela kwami sekusukile kubo.
5 Ani Israaʼelitti akkuma fixeensaa nan taʼa; inni akkuma daraaraa ni daraara. Inni akkuma gaattiraa Libaanoon hidda isaa gad fageeffata;
Ngizakuba njengamazolo ku-Israyeli; uzaqhakaza njengeluba. Uzatshonisa impande zakhe phansi njengomsedari waseLebhanoni;
6 dameen isaa ni guddata. Miidhaginni isaa akkuma muka ejersaa taʼa; urgaan isaa akkuma gaattiraa Libaanoon.
amahlumela akhe amatsha azakhula. Ubuhle bakhe buzakuba njengesihlahla se-oliva, iphunga lakhe libe njengomsedari waseLebhanoni.
7 Namoonni ammas deebiʼanii gaaddisa isaa jala jiraatu. Inni akkuma midhaanii lalisa. Akkuma muka wayinii dagaaga; maqaan isaas akkuma daadhii wayinii Libaanoon beekama.
Abantu bazahlala njalo emthunzini wakhe. Uzakhula kuhle njengamabele. Uzaqhakaza njengevini, lodumo lwakhe luzakuba njengolwewayini laseLebhanoni.
8 Yaa Efreem, ani kana caalaa waaqota tolfamoo wajjin dhimma maaliin qaba? Kan deebii siif kennee si eegu anuma. Ani akkuma muka birbirsa lalisaa ti; amanamummaan kee ana irraa dhufa.”
Awu Efrayimi, kuyini futhi engingakwenza ngezithombe? Ngizamphendula ngimlondoloze. Mina nginjengesihlahla sephayini esiluhlaza, ukuthela kwakho izithelo kuvela kimi.”
9 Namni ogeessi eenyu? Inni waan kana ni beeka. Qalbii qabeessi eenyu? Inni waan kana ni hubata. Karaan Waaqayyoo qajeelaa dha; namni qajeelaan isa irra deema; finciltoonni garuu isa irratti gufatu.
Ngubani ohlakaniphileyo? Uzazibona lezizinto. Ngubani oqedisisayo? Uzazizwisisisa. Izindlela zikaThixo zilungile abalungileyo bahamba kuzo, kodwa abahlamuki bayakhubeka kuzo.
