31 Hi ku hatlisa loko va heta leswi hinkwaswo, Vaisrayele hinkwavo+ lava va kumiweke kwalaho va huma va ya emitini ya Yuda,+ va hahlula tinsika to kwetsima,+ va tsema timhandzi to kwetsima,+ va hirimuxa tindhawu leti tlakukeke+ ni tialitari+ etikweni ra Yuda+ hinkwaro na Benjamini na Efrayimi+ na Manase+ kukondza va heta; endzhaku ka sweswo vana va Israyele hinkwavo va tlhelela emitini ya vona, ha un’we endzhakeni yakwe.

7 a hirimuxa tialitari+ ni timhandzi to kwetsima,+ ni swifaniso leswi vatliweke+ a swi pfotlosa swi va mapa;+ a tsema swo tlhandleka+ murhi wa risuna hinkwaswo etikweni ra Israyele hinkwaro, endzhaku ka sweswo a vuyela eYerusalema.

2 loko vana va vona va tsundzuka tialitari ta vona ni timhandzi ta vona to kwetsima etlhelo ka murhi lowukulu, ehenhla ka switsunga swo tlakuka,+

25 Ndzi ta mi xuva hi mati yo tenga, mi ta tenga;+ ndzi ta mi endla mi tenga ethyakeni+ ra n’wina hinkwaro ni le ka swifaniso swa n’wina hinkwaswo swa hava leswi hombolokeke.+

11 “Hikuva Efrayimi u andzise tialitari leswaku a dyoha.+ U ve ni tialitari leswaku a dyoha.+

8 “Efrayimi u ta vula a ku, ‘Xana ndza ha ta endla yini hi swifaniso swa hava?’+

“Kunene mina ndzi ta hlamula, ndzi tshama ndzi langute yena.+ Mina ndzi fana ni murhi lowukulu wa yunipa.+ Eka mina ku fanele ku kumeka mihandzu ya n’wina.”

2 “Kutani esikwini rero,” ku vula Yehovha wa mavuthu, “ndzi ta susa mavito ya swifaniso swa hava etikweni,+ a ma nge he tsundzukiwi; naswona vaprofeta+ swin’we ni moya wa thyaka ndzi ta swi endla swi hundza etikweni.+
