1Oko uSirayeli ebemncinane, ndamthanda, ndambiza unyana wam ngokuba ungumYiputa.

2Wathi, bababizile, baza barhoxa nabo;

3Ke mna ndamfundisa uEfrayim ukuhamba, ndamhlangula esandleni sakhe; babengazi ke ukuba ndibaphilise.

4Ndabatsala ngeentsontelo zomntu, ngeentsontelo zothando; kubo ndaba njengabo basusa idyokhwe emihlathini yabo, yaye ndabanika inyama.

5Akayi kubuyela kwilizwe laseYiputa, kodwa iAsiriya yoba ngukumkani wakhe, ngenxa yokuba abavumanga ukubuya.

6Ikrele liya kuba semizini yakhe, liwavuthululele amagatya akhe, liwadle ngenxa yamacebo abo;

7Abantu bam bayathanda ukundishiya; nokuba banqula uPhezukonke, akukho bani unokumphakamisa.

8Ndingathini ukukushiya, Efrayim? Ndingathini na ukukusindisa, Sirayeli? Ndingathini na ukukufanisa neAdama? ndikwenze ube njengeTsebhoyim? Yaguquka intliziyo yam phakathi kwam, Umvandedwa wam wavutha kunye.

9Andiyi kukuvumela ukuvutha komsindo wam kuphele, andiyi kubuya ndimonakalise uEfrayim; ngokuba ndinguThixo, andimntu; Ongcwele phakathi kwenu, kwaye andiyi kungena kuwo umzi.

10Baya kumlandela uYehova; Ubharhula njengengonyama; ukuba uthe wabharhula, bangcangcazele oonyana basentshonalanga.

11Baya kuvela eYiputa, begubha njengeentaka, nanjengehobe ezweni laseAsiriya; yaye ndiza kubabeka emakhayeni abo,’ utsho uYehova.

12uEfrayim undirhawule ngobuxoki, indlu kaSirayeli ngenkohliso; noYuda usengukumkani kuThixo, kunye nabangcwele.
