Hoshea 4:1-19
4 Umvuayi dîyi dia Yehowa, nuenu bantu ba Isalele,Bualu Yehowa udi tshilumbu ne bantu badi basombele mu buloba ebu,+Bualu kakuena bulelela anyi dinanga dia lulamatu peshi dimanya dia Nzambi mu buloba ebu to.+
2 Mitshipu ya mafi, dishima+ ne dishipangana+Ne buivi ne masandi+ mbitangalake,Ne tshienzedi tshimue tshia diela mashi panshi tshidi tshilonda tshienzedi tshikuabu tshia diela mashi panshi.+
3 Ke bualu kayi buloba nebudile+Ne muntu yonso udi musombelamu neanyane;Nyama ya tshisuku ya mu mpata ne nyunyi ya muulu,Too ne mishipa ya mu mâyi, nebifue.
4 “Kadi muntu nansha umue kaluishanganyi anyi katandishanganyi to,+Bualu bantu benu badi bu bantu badi baluisha muakuidi.+
5 Nunku neulenduke munda munya,Ne muprofete nealenduke nebe, bu badi butuku.
Ne nempuwishe* mamuebe.
6 Nebapuwishe* bantu banyi, bualu kakuena dimanya to.
Bualu wewe udi ubenga dimanya,+Meme panyi nenkubenge bua kuenji mudimu bu muakuidi wanyi to;Ne bu muudi mupue mukenji wa* Nzambi webe muoyo,+Meme nempue bana bebe muoyo.
7 Pavuabu bavula bikole, ke pavuabu batamba kungenzela mpekatu.+
Nenkudimune butumbi buabu bulue bundu.*
8 Badi badia mpekatu ya bantu banyi,Ne badi ne lukuka lua* tshilema tshiabu.
9 Malu neikale muomumue bua bantu ne bua muakuidi;Nembalumbuluishe bua njila yabu,Ne nembatumine bipeta bia bienzedi biabu.+
10 Nebadie, kadi kabakukuta to.+
Nebalue bena tshiendenda,* kadi kabakuvulangana to,+Bualu ki mbaleje Yehowa kanemu to.
11 Bundumba* ne mvinyo, ne mvinyo mupiamupia
Bidi biumbusha lungenyi lua kuenza tshidi tshiakane.*+
12 Bantu banyi badi bakonka malu kudi mpingu yabu ya mitshi,Benza malu adi dikombo diabu* dibambila;Bualu lungenyi lua bundumba* ludi lubapambuisha,Ne bua bundumba* buabu badi babenga kukokela Nzambi wabu.
13 Badi balambula milambu pa nsongo ya mikuna minene,+Ne badi bafuimisha muishi wa milambu pa mikuna mikese,Muinshi mua mitshi ya nsanga, ne mitshi ya stirakse, ne mutshi munene wonso,+Bualu dileji diayi ndimpe.
Ke bualu kayi bana benu ba bakaji badi benda bundumba*Ne bakaji ba bana benu badi benda masandi.
14 Tshiakulumbuluisha bana benu ba bakaji bua bundumba* buabu,Ne bakaji ba bana benu bua masandi abu to.
Bualu balume badi bapatuka ne bakaji ba ndumbaNe bafila milambu ne ndumba ya ku ntempelo;Bantu ba nunku badi kabayi ne lungenyi+ nebabutuke.
15 Nansha muudi wenda bundumba,* wewe Isalele,+Yuda kalu muena tshibawu to.+
Kanulu ku Gilegala+ anyi ku Bete-awena,+Ne kanuditshipi ne: ‘Bushuwa, bu mudi Yehowa ne muoyo!’+ to.
16 Bualu Isalele mmulue ne tshitunu bu ngombe wa tshitunu.+
Mpindieu Yehowa neabalame bu tshimpanga tshia mukoko tshitshidi tshiana mu mpata mualabale* anyi?
17 Efelayima mmudisange ne mpingu.+
Mulekelayi!
18 Padi maluvu* abu ajika,Badi baditua mu tshiendenda.*
Ne bakokeshi bende* mbanange bundu bikole.+
19 Lupepele nelumuvunge* mu mapuapua alu,Ne nebumvue bundu bua milambu yabu.”
