₂“Iwile bhaxa, ayiyi kube ivuke intombi enguSirayeli!

Ithe qungqululu yodwa kumhlaba wakowayo,

kungekho bani wokuyiphakamisa.”

“Kuya kusinda ikhulu kuloo dolophu ithumela iwaka edabini,

kusinde ishumi lamaSirayeli kuleyo ithumela ikhulu lamadoda.”

“Quqelani kum, niphile.

₅Musani ukuquqela eBhetele,

Ngaba kanene kuni loo mini yoba yimini enjani?

Imini kaNdikhoyo yoba sisithokothoko sobumnyama, ingabi kukukhanya.

₁₉Koba ngathi umntu ubaleka ingonyama,

aye kugagana nebhere.

Koba ngathi umntu ungena endlwini, abambelele eludongeni,

suka alunywe yinyoka kweso sandla.

₂₀Imini kaNdikhoyo iya kuba bubumnyama, ingabi kukukhanya.

Yoba sisithokothoko sentsunguzi engenalitha.

₂₁“Ndiwathiyile, ndiwacekisa amatheko enu,

₂₂Loo madini atshiswayo niwenzayo, kunye naloo minikelo yenu yeenkozo, andiyi kuyamkela;

andiyi kuyisa so konke iminikelo yenu yobudlelane yeenkomo ezityetyisiweyo.

nobulungisa njengomsinga ongatshiyo.

₂₅“Ndlu kaSirayeli, yayingendim enanimxhelela,

nimenzela amadini iminyaka emashumi mane entlango.

₂₆Ngoku ke niza kuyithwala loo mifanekiso kaSikuti, loo kumkani wenu,

kunye nokaKiyuni, inkwenkwezi yothixo wenu enazenzelayo,

₂₇kuba ndizimisele ukunigxothela kude lee ngaphaya kweDamasko,

apho niya kuba ngabathinjwa khona.”

Utsho uNdikhoyo.

NguThixo onamandla onke igama lakhe.

₁Mawoo! Lusizi okwenu, nina bantundini bathe zava eZiyon,

nina nizicingelayo ukuba nikhuselekile kwintaba yaseSamariya –

nditsho nina, zindwalutho zesizwe,

nina kuziwa kuni ngabantu bakwaSirayeli.

₂Khanenjenjeya niye kuvelela iKalene,

nidlule apho niye kwesaa sixekokazi iHamati,

nihle nibheke eGati isixeko samaFilistiya.

Ngaba loo mimandla iyidlula ngantoni eyenu?

Ngaba kanene loo mihlaba mikhulu kuneyenu na?

₃Nina niwubekela kude umhla weshwangusha,

kanti nisondeza ukulawulwa lugonyamelo.

₄Nithe zukumfa kwiibhedi ezihonjiswe ngamabamba eendlovu,

nee ngqendevu kwezo sofa zenu,

nisitya eyona nyama ikhethiweyo yegusha nenkomo.

₅Nivukwa yinkenkqe yakutsho ihapu,

niqambe ingoma nixelise uDavide.

₆Nizibetha zichuchumale iindebe yiwayini,

niziqhole ngawexabiso amafutha,

ningabi nantlungu ngokutshabalala kwendlu kaJosefu.

₇Ngoko ke kuya kuqala kuthinjwe nina,

aphele loo matheko enithe zava kuwo.

₈INkosi *uNdikhoyo ifunge igama layo;

ewe, nguwo lo umlomo kaNdikhoyo, uThixo onamandla onke,

uthi: “Ndiyalicekisa ikratshi lenzala kaYakobi;

ndithiye nkqu loo mabhotwe bahlala kuwo.

Ke ngoko isixeko nako konke okukuso ndiza kusinikela kwiintshaba.”

₁₁Niyabona, uthethile uNdikhoyo;

umzi omkhulu uwudiliza ube ngamabhodlo

nomncinane ube ziintanda.

₁₂Akhe aphale na amahashe emaweni?

Ngaba ukho olima apho ngeenkabi zeenkomo?

Kodwa nina ubulungisa nibujike baba yityhefu,

nokunyaniseka nakutsho kwaba likhala elikrakrayo.

₁₃Nivuyiswa kukuthimba iLodabhare,

futhi niqhayisa ngokuthi iKarnayim nayoyisa ngamandla enu.

₁₄Nguwo lo umlomo kaNdikhoyo, uThixo onamandla onke,

uthi: “MaSirayeli, ndinizisela isizwe!

Siza kuniphatha gadalala ukususa kulaa ngxingwa yaseHamati

kude kuye kutsho kulaa ntili ingaseArabha.”
