Hoseya 9
1Ungathokozi, Israyeli, ngokuthokoza njengezizwe; ngokuba ufebile kuNkulunkulu wakho, wathanda umvuzo ezibuyani zamabele.
2Isibuya nesikhamo sewayini akuyikubapha ukudla, notshani buyophela kubo.
3Abayikuhlala ezweni likaJehova; kepha u-Efrayimi uyakubuyela eGibithe, badle okungcolileyo e-Asiriya.
4Abanakunikela ngewayini kuJehova, futhi abayikumthokozisa; izisulu zabo ziyoba njengesinkwa sokulila kubo; bonke abakudlayo bayakuba ngabangcolile, ngokuba isinkwa sabo asiyikungena endlini kaJehova ngenxa yomphefumulo wabo.
5Niyakwenzani ngosuku lomkhosi nangosuku lomkhosi kaJehova na?
6Ngokuba bhekani, sebehambile ngenxa yokubhujiswa; izindawo zobumnandi besiliva labo liyakudliwa yizimbabazane; ameva ayakuba sematendeni abo.
7Izinsuku zokuhanjelwa sezifikile, izinsuku zokuphindisela sezifikile; U-Israyeli uyakukwazi lokhu: Umprofethi uyisiwula, nomuntu ongokomoya uyahlanya, ngenxa yobuningi bobubi bakho nenzondo enkulu.
8Umlindi ka-Efrayimi wayenoNkulunkulu wami, kepha umprofethi ulugibe lomcuphi wezinyoni ezindleleni zakhe zonke, nenzondo endlini kaNkulunkulu wakhe.
9Bazonakalisa ngokujulile njengasezinsukwini zaseGibeya; ngalokho uyakukhumbula ububi babo, ahambele izono zabo.
10Ngafumana u-Israyeli enjengezithelo zomvini ehlane; Ngabona oyihlo njengezithwathwa zokuqala emkhiwaneni ekuqaleni kwawo; kepha baya eBali Peyori, bazihlukanisela ihlazo; nezinengiso zabo zazinjengokuthanda kwabo.
11Kepha u-Efrayimi, udumo lwakhe luyondiza lumuke njengenyoni, ekuzalweni nasesiswini nasekukhulelweni.
12Noma bekhulisa abantwana babo, nokho ngiyakubaphanga, kungabikho muntu; yebo, maye kubo futhi lapho ngisuka kubo!
13U-Efrayimi, njengalokho ngabona iTire, litshalwe endaweni emnandi, kepha u-Efrayimi uyakukhiphela umbulali abantwana bakhe.
14Baphe, Jehova, uzabanikani? abakhiphe isisu futhi ome amabele.
15Bonke ububi babo buseGiligali, ngokuba ngabazonda khona; ngenxa yobubi bezenzo zabo ngiyakubaxosha endlini yami, angisayikubathanda; zonke izikhulu zabo ziyizihlubuki.
16U-Efrayimi ushayiwe, impande yabo yomile, abayikuthela; noma bezala, nokho ngiyakubulala isithelo esithandekayo sesisu sabo.
17UNkulunkulu wami uyakubalahla, ngokuba abamlalelanga, bayakuba yizihambi phakathi kwezizwe.
