UHoziya 11:7-9

Abantu bami baphikelele ukuhlubuka kimi, noma bangambiza kangakanani oPhezukonke, ngeke abaphakamise. “Ngingakuyekela kanjani, Efrayimi, ngikukhaphele kanjani, Israyeli na? Ngingakwenza kanjani ube njenge-Adima, ngikwenze kanjani ube njengeZebhoyimi na? Inhliziyo yami iyaphenduka ngaphakathi kimi, sonke isihawu sami sivusiwe. Ngeke ngisaqhubeka nolaka lwami oluvuthayo, noma ngibhubhise u-Efrayimi, ngokuba nginguNkulunkulu, angisiye umuntu, ngingongcwele phakathi kwenu, angiyukufika ngolaka.
