Kwa maana ikunyile hulini wipatano ilyatupatene ili waminifu. ⁴ Ihaizenga nandhele isho uhaibha uzengwilwe, lindu wa Israeli..... na bhale huzi awanje amoje. ⁵ Utota amizabibu andhele amwanya amagamba hu Samalia; alimi bhaitota nabhishe amadudu kwajili yatumile aminza. ⁶ Maana isiku liwinza uwakati abhagula paitangazwa kati yi magamba ga Efraimu, 'Bhuha, sali pamwanya iyimagamba ga Yahwe Ungulubhi wanthu.' ⁷ Maana Yahwe ayanga ishi, Bwaga ibwago ilya mojele kwajili ya Yakobo! Kholaji izya moje kwa ajili ya bhadhu agosi bha taifa! Sifa zimanyishe. Yanga, "Yahwe abhakombule abhanthu bhakwe, asagazi aIsraeli.' ⁸ Enya, indi pipe abhalete afume inthi izya hu kusini. Ihaibhabhunganya afume isehemu izya hutali sana inzi dunia. Avipofu nalema bhabha kati kati yabhene; abhashi abhivhanda na bhala alipepe afungule bhaibha palishimo nao. Abhabhungine abhinji bhaibhuye ipa. ⁹ Bhayinza bhazonda ihayibhalongozya uhu bhabhomba bhalabha wabho. Ihayibhabhomba bhashule kati makonto agi minze kati yi balabala ilyaligolushe. Saibumila pamwanya yakwe, maana ihaibha baba wa Israeli, na Efraimu ayibha papha wane wa kwanza. ¹⁰ Uvha izyo lya Yahwe, mataifa. Litangazyaji mushinji mu visiwa hutali. Enyi mataifa lazima muyanje, 'Ula uwatawenye Israeli ahubhunganya nandhele nabhalinde nishi udimi ishalida ingole.' ¹¹ Maana Yahwe asombile uYakobo na hukombole afume mukhono ugwa gwali ni nguvu sana wa mwene. ¹³ Ishi alidu bhaimoga na cheze, asahala narume azee bhaibha parushimo. Maana ihaigagaluzanya asonde wabho abhe shalehe. Ihaibha ni phana juu ya bhene nabhabhombe huje bhomogaje badala ya hunzunishe. ¹⁴ Ishi ihayigolobheha sana amaisha agadimi. Abhandhu bhane bhaigona bhibho huwema--ili li tangazo lya Yahwe." ¹⁵ Yahwe ayanga ishi: "Isauti imanyishe hu Rama, ifuto na nzonde uwinji. Yu Laheli uwa nzonda kwajili yabhana bhakwe. Hagawanza apumele zewe nadhele juu yabho maana sagabhumi nadhele." ¹⁶ Yahwe ayanga ishi, Ziga isauti yaho unganda alile na maso gaho ganda afumye anzozi; maana huli isombo kwa jili yi mateso gaho--ili litangazo lya Yahwe--abhana bhaho bhaibhuya afume inthi iya bhibhi. ¹⁷ Huli urusubhilo kwaajili yi nsiku zyinyu izya pamandi--ili li tangazo lya Yahwe--ishikhoro shaho bhaibhuya muhati gamu phaha zyabho." ¹⁸ Wana lyoli imyuvheze Efremu palila, 'Uhana dhibu ihadhibiwe nishi igwata iyasimanyiziwe. Umbuzye na mbabhuziwe, maana awe wi Yahwe wi Ngulubhi wane. ¹⁹ Kwa maana baada ya kurudi kwako, nilikuwa na huzuni; baada ya kufundiswa, nilijipiga kofi sshavu langu. Niliaibika ana dharirika, kwa maana nilizaliwa na hataia ya ujana wangu.' ²⁰ Efremu sa mwana wane uwi galama? Umwene saga yunthuwe wane, mwana wane uwangene? Maana maana shila aibha iyanga juu ya mwene, baando ihayikuga pezi wane uwinjele zyani humu na ine umwoyo gwane guhusungwa. Na lyoli ihabha ni pwana juu ya mwene--ili litangazo lya Yahwe." ²¹ Uwibhishele alama kwajili yale wewe. Bheha amatangazo agimelekezyo kwajili liwe wewe. Uyibhishe munjele zyaho juu ya mwidala ilyali shinza, idala ilya waziwa alidaye. Bhuya, lindu Israeli! Ubhuye hu miji gaho. ²² Unzatanje tanje paka lii, bhulendo uwasa uwaminiha? Maana Yahwe abhumbele ahandhu ahapyajuu yi dunia--ushe ahuzyungula ulume. ²³ Yahwe uwa sikali Ungulubhi uwa Israeli, ayanga ishi, "Pihayibhabhuzya abhanthu munthi yabho, bhayinga ishi kati yinthi ya Yuda namiji gakwe, "Yahwe asaye, awe ni semu izyazitakhete ambapo akhala, abhe ligamba itakatifu.' ²⁴ Maana Yuda nu mji gwakwe gwunthi bhaikhala palushimo umwo, ni shila isha bha yi khala ali maji na adimi parushimo akundi gabho. ²⁵ Maana ihaibhapela amenze agamwele bhalitile, na ihaimemya shila uwateseha nu lyasi." ²⁶ Baada yiga ihabhuha, ihagundula huje uturo twane tumbuludisya. ²⁷ Enya, inziku ziwinza--li li tangazo lya Yahwe--pihaipanda inyumba ua wa Israeli nu Yuda palishimo na pa pha na bhanadamu nanzi hanu. ²⁸ Ulyinje ihaibhabhishile kati yiwangulizi ili abhasenye na bhabomole, abhagwisye, abhananganye, nabho lele amadhala. Lelo pinzi ku izya ziwenza, ihayibhenya, ili imbanzenje nabhatonte--ili litangazo lya Yahwe. ²⁹ Kati yi nziku izyo numo uwaiyanga na nthele, "Ababa bhabhanji bhalile zabibu ihali, hutali na mino aga bhana bumu.' ³⁰ Maana shila mundhu ayibha nuchafu wakwe yuyo; shila walya izabibu ihali amino gakwe gabhabhe butu. ³¹ Enya, inziku zi winza--ili litangazo lya Yahwe--pihayibha izikhete ipatano ipya parushimo ni nyumba iya Israeli ni nyumba ya Yuda. ³² Halwayibha nishi ipatano ilihazisye na baba bhabho pipabhefyaga hukhono gwane hunzhi ya hu Misiri. Izyo zyali nsiku izyabha vunjile ipatano lyane, ijapo ihali lume wabhene--ili litangazo lua Yahwe. ³³ Lelo ili lipano ili hayazisya ni nyumba ya Israeli baada yi nziku izi--ili litangazo lya Yahe: Ihayibheha isheliya yane muhati yabho na ihayisimba moyo gao, maana ihaibha Ngulubhi wabho, bhope bhaibha bhandhu bhene. ³⁴ Ishi shila mudhu haga ayifundizya upalamani wakwe, wala umudhu haga ayifundizya uhoro wakwe ayanje huje, 'Umanye uYahwe!' Maana wao wote, kuanzia mdogo wao hata mkubwa, watanijua—hili ni tangazo la Yahwe—kwa maana ihayibhasajila uchafu wabho nasaga ihaikumbuha nadhele idhambi zyabho."' ³⁵ Yahwe ayanga ishi--Yahwe, umwene abhomba isanya shalilama pasanya napanje umwezi ni nthotye nakhozye nusku. Umwene yuwa abhiha ibahari kati yi mwendo gimawimbi gakwe galumaje. U Yahwe uwa sikali kati yi tawa lyakwe. ³⁶ Ayanga ishi, khibha amambo iga agadumu kha gepe pamaso ga bhana bhane--ili li agizo lya Yahwe--uzabho wa Israeli sabhayimilila hutali nane bhanganda abhe litaifa." ³⁷ U Yahwe ayanga ishi, "Khashele utali uwi mwanya iwezehana apeme, na kama usingi ugwi dunia panzi ganduliha, ihaibhakhana uzao wundhi uwi Israeli hu sababu yi gunthi agabha bhombile ili litanganzo lya Yahwe." ³⁸ "Enya, insiku ziwinza--ili litangazo lya Yahwe--ambapo mji gwaizengwa kwaajili ya bhana bhane, afume hu Munara ugwa Hananeli hadi hu Lyango lya Pashinje. ³⁹ Ishi amasitali agapimile gaibhala huznhi hadi uhutali, huhagamba ha Garebu nazyungule Goa. ⁴⁰ Ibonde lyundhi ilima bili agagafwile namalota, nugunda ugwimaje leha ilya lifiha muhati mwibonde lya Kidroni hutali hadi hukona yi Lyango la Falasi upande wi mashaliki, lyaiteuliwa kwaajili Yahwe.
