Hoseya 2

1Yishoni kubafowenu ukuthi: ‘Ami! nakodadewenu uRuhama.

2Mlaseni unyoko, ngokuba akasiye umkami, nami angisiye umyeni wakhe; khona-ke makasuse ubufebe bakhe nokuphinga kwakhe phakathi kwamabele akhe;

3funa ngimhlubule abe nqunu, ngimbeke njengasosukwini lokuzalwa kwakhe, ngimenze abe njengehlane, ngimenze abe njengezwe elomileyo, ngimbulale ngokoma.

4Kangiyikuba lesihawu kubantwana bakhe; ngoba bangabantwana bobufebe.

5Ngoba unina uphingile; owawazala wenza okuhlazisayo; ngokuba wathi: “Ngiyakulandela izithandwa zami ezinginika isinkwa sami namanzi ami, uboya bezimvu bami nelineni lami, amafutha ami nesiphuzo sami.”

6Ngalokho bheka, ngiyakusibekela indlela yakho ngameva, ngenze ugange, ukuze angazitholi izindlela zakhe.

7Uyakuxosha izithandwa zakhe, kepha aziyikuzifica; futhi uyozifuna, kodwa angazitholi; khona-ke uzakuthi: Ngizahamba ngibuyele endodeni yami yokuqala; ngoba ngaleso sikhathi kwakungcono ngami kunamanje.

8Ngokuba wayengazi ukuthi yimina engimnike amabele, newayini, namafutha, ngandisa isiliva negolide abakulungisela uBali.

9Ngalokho ngiyakubuya, ngithathe amabele ami ngesikhathi sawo, newayini lami ngesikhathi sako, ngibuyise uboya bami bezimvu, nelineni lami okunikelwe ukumboza ubunqunu bakhe.

10Manje ngizakwembula ihlazo lakhe phambi kwamehlo ezithandwa zakhe, njalo kakho ozamsindisa esandleni sami.

11Ngiyokwenza ukuba kuphele yonke intokozo yakhe, imikhosi yakhe, nezinyanga zakhe zokuthwasa kwezinyanga, namasabatha akhe, nayo yonke imikhosi yakhe.

12Njalo ngizachitha izivini zakhe lemikhiwa yakhe athi ngayo: Lezi ziyimivuzo yami ezinginike yona izithandwa zami; futhi ngiyoyenza ibe yisihlahla, futhi izilo zasendle ziyoyidla.

13Ngiyakumhambela ngezinsuku zawoBali, ashumayeza ngazo impepho, wazihlobisa ngamacici akhe nezinto zakhe ezicwebezelayo, walandela izithandwa zakhe, wangikhohlwa mina,” usho uJehova.

14Ngakho-ke bheka, ngizomyenga ngimyise ehlane ngikhulume kahle naye.

15Ngiyakumnika khona izivini zakhe nesigodi sase-Akori njengomnyango wethemba; iyohlabelela lapho njengasezinsukwini zobusha bayo nanjengasosukwini lokukhuphuka kwayo iphuma ezweni laseGibithe.

16“Ngalolo suku,” usho uJehova, “niyakungibiza ngokuthi, Ishi; awusayikungibiza ngokuthi nguBali.

17Ngoba ngizakhupha amabizo awoBhali emlonyeni wakhe, njalo kabasayikukhunjulwa ngamabizo.

18Ngalolo suku ngiyobenzela isivumelwano nezilwane zasendle, nezinyoni zezulu, nezilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni; ngiyakwaphula umnsalo, nenkemba, nempi emhlabeni, futhi uyobayeka balale belondekile.

19Futhi ngizokugana ube ngowami kuze kube phakade; yebo, ngiyakugana wena ngokulunga, nangobulungisa, nangobubele, nangomusa.

20Futhi ngizokuganisa entombini yami, futhi uyomazi uJehova.

21Ngalolo suku ngiyakuzwa, usho uJehova, ngilalele amazulu, wona alalele umhlaba;

22Umhlaba uyakuzwa ukolweni, newayini, namafutha; futhi bayokuzwa uJizreyeli.

23Ngiyakuhlwanyela yena emhlabeni; ngiyakuba nomusa kongahawukelwanga; ngiyakuthi kwabangebona abantu bami: Ningabantu bami; futhi bayothi: Wena unguNkulunkulu wami.
