Okuliteeka kwaIsrael taku etwa po pafaneko lomwalikadi ombwada
1 Ondjovo yOmwene oye uya kuHosea, omona waBeeri, momafiku eehamba daJuda Ussia, Jotam, Ahas naHiskia nomomafiku aJerobeam yaJoas, ohamba yaIsrael.
2 Omwene eshi a hovela okupopifa Hosea, Omwene okwa lombwela Hosea, ta ti: “Inda u likongele omwalikadi ombwada, ove u dale ounona nombwada, osheshi oshilongo osha teya nokuteyelela ohombo nokweefa Omwene.” 3 Opo ye a ya ndele ta hombola Gomer waDiblaim. Ndele ye a ninga oufimba, ndele te mu dalele omumati.
4 Ndele Omwene e mu lombwela ta ti: “Mu luka Jisreel (tashi ti: Kalunga ta halakanifa), osheshi oku na okafimbo kanini, ndele handi ka kongolola etimba laJisreel, li ye mepata laJehu, ndele handi xulifa po oshilongo sheumbo laIsrael. 5 Heeno, mefiku tuu linya Ame ohandi ka teya po outa waIsrael mefilu laJisreel.”
6 Opo omwalikadi a ninga vali oufimba, ndele a dala okakadona ndele Omwene okwa lombwela Hosea, ta ti: “Ka luka Lo-Ruhama (tashi ti: ina filwa onghenda), osheshi itandi ka fila vali eumbo laIsrael onghenda, ndi va dimine po. 7 Ndelenee eumbo laJuda ohandi ke li filonghenda; ndele ohandi va xupifa okekwafo lOmwene Kalunga kavo. Ndele Ame ihandi ke va xupifa nouta ile neongamukonda ile noita, neenghambe ile novalondi veenghambe.”
8 Opo nee omwalikadi eshi a tovifa Lo-Ruhama, a ninga vali oufimba, ndele a dala omumati. 9 Ndele Omwene okwe mu lombwela, ta ti: “Mu luka Lo-Ammi (tashi ti: kashi fi oshiwana shange), osheshi kamu fi oshiwana shange, naame yo nghi fi weni.”
10 Ndele omuvalu waIsrael tau ka ninga muhapu u fike peheke lopefuta, itali shiiva okuyelekwa ile okuvalwa. Nopoima opo va lombwelwa: “Kamu fi oshiwana shange,” otava ka lombwelwa: “Onye ovana vaKalunga omunamwenyo!” 11 Opo nee ovana vaJuda novana vaIsrael aveshe kumwe otava ka ongala, ndele tave lihoololele omukulunhu umwe; notava di mo moshilongo, osheshi efiku laJisreel otali kala linene.
