Hosea 3 - Shona Bible 1949, revised 2002（SNA2002）

Mukadzi wechipiri woufeve waHosea anofananidzira Isiraeri

1Zvino Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Chiendazve, undoda mukadzi anodikanwa nomurume wake, asi chiri chifeve, sezvinoda Jehovha vana vaIsiraeri, kunyange vachitsaukira kuna vamwe vamwari, vachida mapundu amadzambiringa.”

2Naizvozvo ndakamutenga namasirivha ane gumi namashanu, nehomeri yebhari, nehomeri yebhari;

3ndikati kwaari, “Uchafanira kundimirira mazuva mazhinji; haufaniri kupata, haufaniri kuva mukadzi womumwe murume; neniwo ndichaita saizvozvo kwauri.

4Nokuti vana vaIsiraeri vachagara mazuva mazhinji vasina mambo, vasina muchinda, vasina zvibayiro, vasina shongwe, vasina efodhi kana terafimi.

5Pashure vana vaIsiraeri vachadzoka vachitsvaka Jehovha Mwari wavo naDhavhidhi mambo wavo; vachauya kuna Jehovha vachitya, nokuunyoro hwake namazuva okupedzisira.”
