1USirayeli ngumdiliya onabileyo; wazixakathela iziqhamo.Okukhona waba neziqhamo, kokukhona wandisa izibingelelo;okukhona lalungayo ilizwe lakhe, kokukhona walungisa izimiso zamatye.

2Yaba buthelezi intliziyo yabo; ngoku baya kuva benetyala.Uya kuziqhekeza izibingelelo zabo, azibhuqe izimiso zabo zamatye.

3Ewe, ngoku baya kuthi, Asinakumkani; kuba asimoyikanga uYehova; nokumkani lowa, uya kusenzela ntoni na?

4Bathetha amazwi nje, bashwabula ngenkohlakalo, benza iminqophiso; kwahluma okusesikweni, njengobuhlungu emiqeleni yesisimi.

5Abemi bakwaSamari banxunguphele ngomfanekiso wethole laseBhetaven; ewe, benza isijwili ngalo abantu balo, bathuthumele ababingeleli balo abangengabo, ngenxa yalo, ngenxa yozuko lwalo, kuba lufudukile kulo.

6Liya kusiwa eAsiriya nalo, libe ngumnikelo kukumkani uYarebhi; uEfrayim uya kubanjwa kukudana, adane uSirayeli ngenxa yecebo lakhe.

7Ke elakwaSamari, ukumkani walo udakile, unjengeceba phezu kwamanzi.

8Iziganga zaseAven, isono sikaSirayeli, zotshabalala. Kuya kuhluma imithana enameva neenkunzana ezibingelelweni zabo; baya kuthi kwiintaba, Siseleleni; nakwiinduli, Siweleni.

9Kususela kwimihla yaseGibheha, Sirayeli wona; bahlala khona; akubafikelanga eGibheha ukulwa noonyana bobugqwetha.

10Ndiya kubathethisa ke ngokomnqweno wam, zibahlanganyele zonke izizwe, ekubotshelelweni kwabo ebugwenxeni babo bobubini.

11UEfrayim lithokazi eliqeqeshiweyo, elithanda ukubhula; mna ke ndibeke idyokhwe entanyeni yalo entle. Ndiyamtsalisa uEfrayim; uYuda uya kulima; uYakobi uya kuziqwakanisela.

12Zihlwayeleleni, ukuba kuvele ubulungisa; vunani ngokwenceba; zikhubeleleni umkhubelo, ekubeni ilixesha lokumquqela uYehova, ade afike aninisele ubulungisa.

13Nalima okungendawo, navuna ubugqwetha, nadla iziqhamo zobuxoki; kuba wakholosa ngendlela yakho, ngobuninzi bamagorha akho.

14Kuya kuvuka ingxolo phakathi kwezizwe zakowenu, zibhuqwe neenqaba zakho zonke, njengoko uShaleman wayibhuqayo iBhete-arbhele ngemini yemfazwe; kwacunyuzwa oonina kunye noonyana.

15Iya kwenjenjalo kuni iBheteli, ngenxa yobubi bezinto zenu ezimbi; kwangesifingo uya kusingelwa phantsi aphele ukumkani wakwaSirayeli.
