18 “Emihleni leyo zizokukhamba ndawonye, indlu kaJuda nendlu ka-Israyeli,+ zizokuvela enarheni yetlhagwini ndawonye, ziye enarheni engayinikela abakhokho bakho njengelifa.+

16 Nje-ke, wena ndodana yomuntu, thatha isigodo utlole kiso, ‘Utlolele uJuda nabantu bakwa-Israyeli abanaye.’+ Ngemva kwalokho, thatha esinye isigodo utlole kiso, ‘Utlolele uJosefa isigodo sakwa-Efrayimu nayo yoke indlu yakwa-Israyeli enaye.’+

19 batjele ukuthi, ‘Nakhu iKosi ePhakemeko uJehova ekutjhoko: “Ngizokuthatha isigodo sakaJosefa esisesandleni saka-Efrayimu neenkoro zakwa-Israyeli ezinaye, ngizobahlanganisa nesigodo sakwaJuda begodu ngizobenza isigodo sinye,+ bazokuba munye esandleni sami.”’

10 “Isibalo sabantu* bakwa-Israyeli sizokuba njengehlabathi yelwandle, engekhe yalinganiswa namkha yabalwa.+ Godu endaweni okwathiwa kibo, ‘Anisibabantu bami,’+ kuzokuthiwa kibo, ‘Nimadodana kaZimu ophilako.’+ 11 Abantu bakwaJuda nabakwa-Israyeli bazokubuthelelwa babe munye,+ bazozikhethela umdosiphambili munye begodu bazokukhuphuka baphume enarheni ngombana kuzokuba lilanga eliqakathekileko eJizriyela.+
