Ukwehlulelwa Nokujesiswa Kwabo Bonke Abaphristi

1“Yizwani lokhu nina baphristi,

nilalele nina ndlu ka-Israyeli,

nibeke indlebe nina ndlu yenkosi,

ngokuba ukwehlulelwa ngokwenu,

phela nibe wugibe eMizpha

nenetha elendlaliweyo eThabhori.

2Amahlubuka ashone shi ekuhlabeni,

kodwa ngiyakuwaqondisa wonke.”

USimakade Wazi Konke

3“Mina, ngiyamazi u-Efrayimi,

no-Israyeli akafihlekile kimi,

ngokuba manje, wena Efrayimi uzifebele,

u-Israyeli wazingcolisa.”

4“Izenzo zabo azibavumeli

ukuba babuyele kuNkulunkulu wabo,

ngokuba umoya wobufebe usezibilini zabo,

futhi abamazi uSimakade.

5Ukuzigqaja kuka-Israyeli

kuyafakaza phambi kwakhe,

u-Israyeli no-Efrayimi

bayakukhutshwa yizenzo zabo ezimbi,

noJuda uyakhutshwa kanye nabo.

6Bayakuhamba nomhlambi wabo wezimvu nowezinkomo

ukuyofuna uSimakade,

kodwa abayukumfumana,

ngokuba usesukile kubo.

7Abethembekanga kuSimakade,

ngokuba bazale amavezandlebe,

manje-ke inyanga eyethwasayo

iyakubashwabadela nezabelo zabo.

8“Bethani uphondo eGibheya,

nishaye icilongo eRama;

nihlabe umkhosi eBhethi Aveni nithi:

Baphezu kwakho Bhenjamini!

9U-Efrayimi uyakuba yincithakalo ngosuku lokujeziswa,

ngikumemezele lokho okuqinisekileyo

phakathi kwezizwe zakwa-Israyeli.

10Abaholi bakwaJuda bafana

nabagudluza imingcele kwa-Israyeli.

Ngiyakuthululela kubo ulaka lwami njengamanzi.

11U-Efrayimi ucindezelwe,

uchotshoziwe ngokwehlulelwa,

ngokuba wazimisela ukulandela umyalo oyize.

12Mina-ke nginjengenundu ku-Efrayimi,

nanjengokubola kuyo indlu kaJuda.

13“Kwathi lapho u-Efrayimi ebona ukugula kwakhe

noJuda ebona isilonda sakhe,

u-Efrayimi waya e-Asiriya,

wathumela enkosini uJarebi,

kodwa nayo ayiyukukwazi ukuniphulukisa,

iyakwehluleka ukwelapha isilonda senu.

14Ngokuba Mina ngiyakuba

njengebhubesi ku-Efrayimi,

nanjengebhongo lebhubesi

kuyo indlu kaJuda.

Mina luqobo, ngiyakubadwengula,

bese ngihamba;

ngiyakubathatha kungabi bikho obahlengayo.

15Ngiyakuhamba, ngibuyele endaweni yami,

bayoze balivume icala labo,

bafune ubuso bami;

kuyakuthi lapho sebesosizini bangifunisise.”
