1Bekuthi lokha u-Efrayimu nakhulumako amadoda atatazele; gade ahlonitjhwa tle kwa-Israyeli. Wazenzela umlandu ngokulotjha uBhali, wafa.

2Khonapho abantu bathuwelela ngokona: Bazenzela iinthombe, abosingazimu ababazwe ngesiliva labo okumsebenzi nje owenziwe sithakgha! Ngeenthombezi bathi: “Abantu abenza umhlabelo bamele bancwange amathole la.”

3Yeke bazakufana nekungu yamasa, bafane nombethe wekuseni othintithekako; babe njengomkhwani ophephuka eselelweni, nanjengentuthu ephutjheza entunjeni.

4USomnini uthi: “NginguSomnini uZimakho kusukela emihleni yeGibhide. Akhange wazane nomunye uzimu ngaphandle kwami begodu azange kube nomunye umsindisi ngaphandle kwami.

5Ngakwelusa nawuserhalawumbeni, enarheni yesomiso.

6Kwathi lokha nabafika emadlelweni, badla bebatatamala iziswanezi. Kuthe nasele zitatamele njalo, bazikhukhumeza; kungebangelo bangikhohlwa.

7Nje-ke ngaba njengengwenyama kibo, ngabalalela endleleni njengengwe.

8Ngizabathelekela njengonomrhaso owemukwe abantwabakhe: Ngibatlhatlhamulule iimfutjanezi. Ngizabarhiribidela njengengwenyama; iimpisi zizabarathurathula.

9Ukubhubha kwakho, wena Israyeli, kungebanga lami; mina msizakho.

10Iphi ikosakho-ke nje, izakukusindisa kiwo woke amadorobhakho na?

11Ngininikela ikosi ngisilingekile, ngibuye ngiyisuse ngobukhali bami.”

12USomnini uthi: “Umlandu waka-Efrayimu ubulungiwe, izono zakhe zitloliwe.

13Nakufika iinhlabi zokubeletha, u-Efrayimu uba mntwana odlhayeleko: Nakufika isikhathi uyarhodobala, angaphumi esibelethweni!

14Ngimsindise emandleni wethuna na? Ngimhlenge ekufeni? Kufa ndina, aphi amanikelelakho? Thuna ndina, kuphi ukubhubhisa kwakho? Angeze ngamrhawukela.

15Nje-ke akazukuwadla amabele nabafowabo.” Ummoya wepumalanga ovela kuSomnini, uzakufika, uvuke erhalawumbeni; isiyalu saka-Efrayimu sizakuvaleka nomthombakhe wome kere. Ummoya lowo uzakuhlakaza woke amagugwakhe.

16ISamariya izazithwalela umlandwayo ngombana ihlubuke uZimayo. Abantu bazakubulawa ngesabula; abantwababo bazakuphihlizelwa ehlabathini, besifazana babo abasebantwini batlhatlhamululwe!
