UHOSIYA 7 - IsiNdebele 2012 Translation

1iye, nangithi ngipholisa u-Israyeli,

izono zaka-Efrayimu zivela emtarini,

kwembuleke ikohlakalo yeSamariya:

Bayakhohlisana, amasela ayagqekeza

angene ebe;

imigulukudu idlelezela eendledlaneni!

2Abe abacabangi bonyana yoke ikohlakalwabo

ngiyayikhumbula;

izenzo zabo ziyabalandela,

azikafihleki kimi.

3Ikosabo iyabathabela ngokuyibeka kwabo

ngekohlakalo;

nababusi bayo bayathokoza ngamangabo.

4Boke abathembeki.

Banjenge-ondo yomlilo etjhisako,

ongafuni umbhagi awukhwezelele,

kusukela ekubhicweni kwehlama

bekube sekukhukhumaleni kwayo.

5Ngelanga lomnyanya wekosi yaphambilini

benza ababusi bayo badakwe liwayini,

abeluleki badakwa bafa.

6Ngapha bakhothamela ikosi,

ngapha iinhliziyo zitjhisa njenge-ondo

ngamaqhinga wokujamelana nekosi.

Ilunya labo linjengethuthu lomlilo ebusuku

ekuseni libhebhedlhe njengelangabi lomlilo!

7Boke batjhisa njenge-ondo,

baqothula ababusi babo.

Woke amakhosabo ayawa.

Akakho noyedwa ongibizako.”

Kuphelile ngo-Efrayimu

8USomnini uthi:

“U-Efrayimu uhlangana nezizwe

ukiniywa ngapha nangapha.

U-Efrayimu sese afana nehlama engakaphendulwa

phezu komlilo.

9U-Efrayimu ukghakghathwe miqhamuka,

kodwana yena akakuboni lokho.

Sese akhunile,

kodwana yena akakuboni lokho.

10“Ukuzikhukhumeza kwaka-Israyeli kujamelene naye.

Akhange babuyele kuSomnini uZimabo

nanyana bamfune phezu kwakho koke lokho.

11“U-Efrayimu sese anjengezuba,

uyengeka lula, uthithibele:

Balilela iGibhide,

kodwana babalekela e-Asiriya!

12Kuzakuthi basabaleka njalo,

ngiphose igolanedami phezu kwabo;

ngizabadosela phasi njengeenyoni zomkayi;

ngibabambe njengothiya iwoma lamazuba.

13“Bazazizwa ngombana bangihlanukile!

Bazakurhayilwa ngombana balwa nami!

Ngesingami bengikhanukela ukubahlenga,

kodwana bayangirhwayela.

14Akhange balile kimi ngeenhliziyo zabo,

kodwana barhahlawula isililo basemibhedenabo.

Bazirhaya ngebanga lekoroyi newayini.

15Bayangihlubuka nanyana ngabakhalima.

Ngabaqinisa kodwana bahlala isicathana ngami.

16Baphendukela elizeni,

baba njengomsebe omtepetepe.

Ababusi babo bazokubulawa ngesabula

ngebanga lokwephula kwabo iimfungo zabo.

Bazakuba yihlekisa nesiphoqo

enarheni yeGibhide.”
