Hoseya 3:1-5

  • Hoseya ubuyela kumfati wakhe lophingako (1-3)

  • Israyeli utawubuyela kuJehova (4, 5)

3  Jehova wabese utsi kimi: “Hamba ubuyele kumfati wakho, uphindze umtsandze nanobe asatsandvwa ngulenye indvodza futsi aphinga,+ njengobe nje naJehova abatsandza bantfu baka-Israyeli+ nanobe sebagucukele kulabanye bonkulunkulu+ futsi batsandza emagilebisi lomisiwe.”*  Ngako ngatitsengela yena ngetinhlavu telisiliva letingu-15 nangemalitha langu-330* ebhali.  Ngabese ngitsi kumfati wami: “Wena utawuba ngewami emalanga lamanyenti. Yekela kugwadla* futsi ungalali nalenye indvodza, nami angeke ngilale nawe.”  Loku kungenca yekutsi kutawuphela sikhatsi lesidze* ema-Israyeli ete inkhosi,+ ete umbusi, angayenti imihlatjelo, ete litje lelingcwele, ete nesidziya+ kanye netithico.*+  Ngemuva kwaloko, emalangeni ekugcina bantfu baka-Israyeli batawubuya bafune Jehova Nkulunkulu wabo+ naDavide inkhosi yabo,+ futsi ngenca yekutsi bayamesaba Jehova, batawubuyela kuye kuze abentele lokuhle.+
