Hoseya 12 Isivumelwano sika-Efrayimi ngokumelene neNkosi

¹ U-Efrayimi udla umoya, uxosha umoya wasempumalanga; imihla ngemihla wandisa amanga nokubhubhisa; benza isivumelwano nama-Asiriya, kwangeniswa amafutha eGibithe.

² UJehova uphikisana noJuda, uyakuhambela uJakobe ngokwezindlela zakhe; uyakumbuyisela ngokwezenzo zakhe.

³ Wabamba umfowabo ngesithende esiswini sikanina, ngamandla akhe waba namandla kuNkulunkulu.

⁴ Yebo, yayinamandla phezu kwengelosi futhi yanqoba; wakhala, wamncenga; wamfumana eBethele, wakhuluma nathi khona;

⁵ Yebo, uJehova, uNkulunkulu Sebawoti; uJehova uyisikhumbuzo sakhe.

⁶ Ngakho uphendukele kuNkulunkulu wakho; londoloza umusa nokwahlulela, uthembele kuNkulunkulu wakho njalo.

⁷ Ungumthengisi, izilinganiso zenkohliso zisesandleni sakhe; uthanda ukucindezela.

⁸ Wayesethi u-Efrayimi: “Nokho ngicebile, ngizitholele okuhle; kuwo wonke umshikashika wami abayikufumana ububi obuyisono kimi.

⁹ Mina-ke, nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu kwasezweni laseGibithe, ngisazakunihlalisa emadokodweni njengasezinsukwini zemikhosi.

¹⁰ Ngakhuluma ngabaprofethi, ngandisa imibono, ngenza nemifanekiso ngenkonzo yabaprofethi.

¹¹ Kukhona ukungabi nabulungisa eGileyadi? impela ziyize; bahlaba izinkunzi eGiligali; yebo, ama-altare abo anjengezinqwaba emiseleni yensimu.

¹² UJakobe wabalekela ezweni lase-Aramu, u-Israyeli wakhonza owesifazane, walusa izimvu ngenxa yowesifazane.

¹³ Ngomprofethi uJehova wamkhipha u-Israyeli eGibithe, walondolozwa ngomprofethi.

¹⁴ U-Efrayimi wamgcona kabuhlungu; ngalokho igazi lakhe uyakulishiya phezu kwakhe, nesihlamba sakhe siphendule iNkosi yakhe kuye.
