1“Lalelani lapha nina baphristi! Yelelani nina baphathi bakwa-Israyeli! Ulalele wena Sigodlo! Isigwebo ngesenu: Nibe sisifu eMitsipha, Naba sigolanede eThabhori:

2nibe mlindi ozikileko eSitimu. Kodwana ngizonikhalimela noke.

3Ngazi koke ngo-Efrayimu; u-Israyeli akakafihleki phambi kwami. Ngebanga lokobana wena Efrayimu, sewuphendukele ebungwadleni, u-Israyeli wonakele.” Kutjho uSomnini.

4Izenzo zabo azibavumeli ukubuyela kuZimabo. Abamazi uSomnini ngebanga lommoya wobungwadla ophakathi kwabo.

5Ukuzikhukhumeza kuka-Israyeli kujamelene naye. Ama-Israyeli ngitjho no-Efrayimu bararejwa zizono zabo; uJuda unyandanye nabo:

6Lokha nabatlhetlha nezimvu nomhlambi wabo bathi bafuna uSomnini, abazomfunyana ngombana uSomnini uzihlukanisile nabo.

7Abathembeki phambi kwakaSomnini, babeletha amavezandlebe. Nje-ke, uSomnini uzobatjhabalalisa ngenyanga eyodwa nje; kuzabe kungasenalitho emasiminabo.

8Vuthelani ipalapala eGibiya! Nivuthele iporompita eRama! Hlabani umkhosi eBhethe-Aveni! UBhenjamini useenthendeni zakho Efrayimu.

9Nje-ke uzokutjhabalaliswa ngelanga lokubuyiswa. Ngikhuluma into ekhona hlangana neenkoro zakwa-Israyeli.

10USomnini uthi: “Ababusi bakwaJuda batjhidisa iinkhonkhwani. Ngizabadlhuwelela ngobukhali bami njengeenrhurhula zamanzi.

11U-Efrayimu utjhaphile ngokweqa umyalo ngombana uhlalele ukulandela amanyela.

12Mina nginjengepehli ku-Efrayimu, njengesidliso endlini kaJuda.

13Lokha u-Efrayimu nakezwa ukugula kwakhe, noJuda nakabona inceba lakhe, yeke u-Efrayimu waphendukela e-Asiriya, wabawa isizo ekosini ekulu. Kodwana abe ayinamandla wokunelapha, nokunipholisa emancebenenu.

14Ngambala mina nginjengengwenyama ku-Efrayimu, nginjengengwenyama enamandla endlini kaJuda. Mina ngiyarathurathula bengikhambe; ngidudula kutlhogeke nomenyeli.

15Yeke ngizakubuyela endawenami ngilinde bebavume umlandwabo. Bazakufuna ubuso bami; esizini labo bazangifuna bebangifunisise.”
