Olubaga lurhebanyi kurhenga aha canjo
1 Efrayimu ampundikîre obunywesi, n’enyumpa y’Israheli oburhebanyi*. Ci Yûda Nyamuzinda acimumanyire, kwo banamuderha mpu lubàga lwa Mwimâna. 2 Efrayimu àyigusire empûsi, n’empûsi y’ebushoshôkero bw’izûba yo akulikîre; àyushwîre obunywesi n’obulyâlya: banywânîne bona Asîriya, badwîrhe bârhûla Mîsiri amavurha.
Obuhane kuli Yakôbo na Efrayimu
3 Nyamuzinda ali lubanja bona Israheli, âjirira Yakôbo nk’oku n’obwôrhere bwâge bunali, âmugalulira nk’oku ebijiro byâge binali. 4 Kurhenga omu nda ya nnina asigula mukulu wâge, erhi àbà musole, àlwîsa Nyamuzinda. 5 Alwîsa Malahika anamuhima, àrhoza emirenge, àhûna obwonjo. Amushimânaga aha Beteli, n’aho ho Nyamuzinda àmuderhekezagya. 6 Nêci, Nyamubâho Nyamuzinda w’Emirhwe, Nyamubâho lyo izîno lyâge. 7 Wêhe, galuka emwa Nyamuzinda wâwe, langa obuzigire n’obushinga nyanya, onalangâlire Nyamuzinda wâwe ensiku zoshi.
Obuhubu n’obuhane bw’Israheli
8 Kanâni afumbîrhe eminzâni y’oburhebanyi, asîma okuyungunganya. 9 Efrayimu àdesire, erhi: «Nêci, nkola mugale, nalundisire obuhirhi.» Ci kwône ntâco câmusigalira kuli ebyo byoshi, bulya àjizire amabî.
Okulangâlira okubabalirwa
10 Nie Nyamubâho, Nyamuzinda wâwe, kurhenga omu cihugo c’e Mîsiri. Nakuhândìsa kandi omu mahêma, nk’omu lusiku lw’okushimânana. 11 Nabwira abalêbi, nayûshûla amalêbi, n’abalêbi bo bâderhamwo emigâni.
Kandi Nyamubâho ashubibà burhè
12 Galadi bwabire bubî bwône nabo, bali banywesi; e Gilgali bakazirherekêra empanzi; co cirhumire empêro zâbo zâbà nka nnundo ya mabuye omu ishwa. 13 Yakôbo ayâkira omu ishwa ly’Aramu, Israheli âjishigira omukazi, akaziyâbula amasò mpu lyo abona omukazi. 14 Ci kwône, oku kanwa k’omulêbi, Nyamuzinda âyinamula Israheli e Mîsiri, âlangwa n’omulêbi. 15 Efrayimu akuniza bwenêne Nyamuzinda, Nyakasane wâge âmubarhuza omukò gwabulajisire. Nnawâbo âmugalulira ebijâci byâge.
