Hoseya 14:1-9
14 “Yiwi Isirayeli, were kwaku Yehova Chiuta waku,+Pakuti waguŵa chifukwa cha kunanga kwaku.
2 Were kwaku Yehova ndipu ukambi mazu yanga,Umukambiyi kuti, ‘Tigowokiyeni kunanga kwidu,+ londiyani cho ntchamampha,Ndipu tikuthamikeningi ndi milomu yidu+ nge mo tingapereke matholi* nge sembi.
3 Charu cha Asiriya chazakutitaska cha.+
Tazamukwera pamahachi cha,+Ndipuso ntchitu ya manja ngidu tazakuyikambiya so cha kuti, “Chiuta widu!”Pakuti yimwi ndimwi mulongo lisungu ŵana ambula awusewu.’+
4 Ndazamuchizga kuleka kugomezgeka kwawu.+
Ndazakuŵayanja mwakukhumba kwangu,+Chifukwa chakuti ukali wangu watuwaku kwaku yiwu.+
5 Ndazamuja nge dungwi kwaku Isirayeli;Iyu wazamuchita maluŵaNdipu wazamusereza pasi misisi yaki nge vimiti va ku Lebanoni.
6 Mphanda zaki zazamuthaza,Unkhankhu waki wazamuja nge unkhankhu wa chimiti cha maolivi,Ndipu iyu wazamununkhira nge vimiti va ku Lebanoni.
7 Yiwu azamuja so mu mduzi waki.
Azamupanda mbewu ndipuso azamuphuka nge chimiti cha mphereska.+
Wazamutchuka nge vinyu wa ku Lebanoni.
8 Efurayemu wazamukamba kuti, ‘Ndingachitanji nawu so angoza?’+
Ndazamumuka ndi kumuwonere.+
Ndazamuja nge chimiti cha junipa chakubiriŵira.
Vipasu vaku vazamutuliya kwaku ini.”
9 Ndiyani yo we ndi zeru? Wavwisi vinthu venivi.
Ndiyani yo ngwakuwamu? Waviziŵi.
Pakuti nthowa zaku Yehova zakunyoloka,+Ndipu ŵanthu arunji azamuyendamu;Kweni ŵanthu wo ananga azamuguŵa mu nthowa zo.
