E ico imfumu ya Asiria yalimwisalile no kumukakila mu cifungo.+
5 Kabili imfumu ya Asiria yaile mu kulwisha icalo conse, yaile na ku musumba wa Samaria no ku-ushinga+ pa myaka itatu. 6 Mu mwaka walenga pabula (9) ukutula apo Hoshea atendekele ukuteka, imfumu ya Asiria yapokele Samaria+ no kusenda abena Israele muli bunkole+ ku Asiria, kabili yabalengele ukwikala mu Hala+ na mu Habore ku mumana wa Gosani+ na mu misumba ya bena Madai.+
7 Nomba ici cacitike pa mulandu wa kuti abana ba kwa Israele babembukile+ Yehova Lesa wabo, uwabafumishe mu calo ca Egupti mu kuboko kwa kwa Farao imfumu ya Egupti,+ kabili batendeke ukutiina balesa bambi;+ 8 kabili bale-enda mu fipope+ fya nko isho Yehova atamfishe ku cinso ca bana ba kwa Israele, na mu fipope fya shamfumu sha kwa Israele ifyo shapangile; 9 kabili abana ba kwa Israele baipoosele mu fintu ifishaweme kuli Yehova Lesa wabo+ no kuikuulila ififulo fya kupepelapo+ mu misumba yabo yonse, ukutula ku lupungu+ lwa mulinshi ukufika na ku musumba we linga; 10 no kulaimikila ifyaimikwa ifya mabwe+ ne fya fimuti+ pa kapili+ konse na mwi samba lya muti onse uwalelema;+ 11 kabili kulya e ko balefutumwina icushi ca malambo pa fifulo fya kupepelapo fyonse nge nko+ isho Yehova atwele muli bunkole ukufuma ku cinso cabo, kabili balecita ifyabipa no kukalifya+ Yehova;
12 Kabili balebombela utulubi twa bunani,+ uto Yehova abebelepo ukuti: “Mwilacita ici cintu”;+ 13 kabili Yehova alesoka+ Israele+ na Yuda+ muli bakasesema+ bakwe bonse na muli bonse abalemona ifimonwa+ ati: “Lekeni imibele yenu iyabipa+ e lyo mulekonka amafunde+ yandi ne fipope+ fyandi, ukulingana na mafunde+ yonse ayo naebele ifikolwe+ fyenu kabili ayo natumine kuli imwe mu babomfi bandi bakasesema”;+ 14 kabili tabaumfwile lelo baletalamike imikoshi+ yabo nge fyo ifikolwe fyabo ifishacetekele+ Yehova Lesa wabo fyatalamike;15 kabili balekaana ifipope fyakwe ne cipangano+ cakwe ico apangene ne fikolwe fyabo, bakeene no kumfwila amashiwi+ yakwe ayo alebasoka, kabili balekonka utulubi+ twa fye kabili na bo bene baishileba aba fye,+ nge nko ishabashingulwike, isho Yehova abebele ukuti bepalana na sho;+
16 Kabili balesuula amafunde+ yonse aya kwa Yehova Lesa wabo kabili baipangiile ifimpashanya ifya kwenga,+ abana ba ng’ombe babili,+ kabili baputwile icimuti no kucimika,+ e lyo balekontamina ne fya mu muulu+ fyonse no kubombela Baali;+ 17 balepisha na bana babo abaume na bana babo abanakashi mu mulilo+ no kubuka+ no kusobela ifya ku ntanshi,+ baleipoosa+ na mu kucita ifyabipa mu menso ya kwa Yehova ku kumukalifya;+
18 E ico Yehova afuliilwe+ nga nshi abena Israele, ica kuti abafumishe ku cinso cakwe.+ Tashilepo nangu bamo kano fye umukowa wa kwa Yuda.+
19 Na bena Yuda na bo tabakonkele amafunde ya kwa Yehova Lesa wabo,+ lelo bale-enda mu fipope fya bena Israele+ ifyo bapangile. 20 E ico Yehova akeene abana+ bonse aba kwa Israele, no kulabacusha no kubapeela ku balepokolola ifipe, mpaka abatamfishe pa ntanshi yakwe.+ 21 Pantu afumishe Israele ku ng’anda ya kwa Davidi, kabili babikile Yeroboamu mwana Nebati pa bufumu; na Yeroboamu+ afumishe abena Israele mu kukonka Yehova, kabili abalengele ukubembuka ulubembu ulukalamba.+ 22 Na bana ba kwa Israele bale-enda mu membu shonse isho Yeroboamu acitile.+ Tabafuminemo nakalya, 23 mpaka Yehova atamfya Israele ku cinso cakwe,+ filya fine alandiile mu babomfi bakwe bakasesema.+ E ico abena Israele bafumine mu calo cabo no kuya muli bunkole ku Asiria ukufika ne lelo.+
24 E lyo imfumu ya Asiria yafumishe abantu ku Babiloni+ na ku Kutu na ku Aba+ na ku Hamati+ na ku Sefaribaimu,+ no kubaleka ukwikala mu misumba ya Samaria,+ mu cifulo ca bena Israele; kabili balya bantu bapyene Samaria no kwikala mu misumba ya iko. 25 Nomba ilyo batendeke ukwikala mulya, tabaletiina+ Yehova. E ico Yehova atumine inkalamo+ mu kati kabo, na sho shalabepaya. 26 E ico batumine amashiwi ku mfumu ya Asiria abati: “Inko isho mwasendele muli bunkole no kushibika mu misumba ya Samaria tashaishiba imipepele ya kwa Lesa wa cilya calo, ica kuti aletuma inkalamo mu kati kabo;+ kabili, moneni! shilebepaya, pantu tapali nangu umo uwaishiba imipepele ya kwa Lesa wa cilya calo.”
27 E lyo imfumu ya Asiria yasosele aiti: “Lekeni umo pali bashimapepo+ uo mwasendele muli bunkole kulya aleya, ayeikala kulya no kubasambilisha imipepele ya kwa Lesa wa cilya calo.” 28 Awe umo pali bashimapepo uo basendele muli bunkole ukufuma ku Samaria aileikala mu Betele,+ kabili e walebasambilisha ifya kutiina Yehova.+
29 Lelo uluko lumo na lumo lwaipangiile lesa wa luko,+ uo lwabikile mu mayanda ya kupepelamo ayo abena Samaria bapangile, uluko lumo na lumo, mu misumba yabo umo baleikala. 30 Abantu ba ku Babiloni bapangile Sukote-benote, aba ku Kutu+ bapangile Nergali, aba ku Hamati bena bapangile Ashima. 31 Kabili abena Aba+ bapangile Nibhasi na Tartaki; na bena Sefaribaimu+ baleoca abana babo mu mulilo+ kuli Adrameleke na Anameleke, balesa ba kwa Sefaribaimu. 32 Kabili batendeke ukutiina Yehova, kabili basontele na bamo mu bantu babo ukuba bashimapepo+ ba pa fifulo fya kupepalapo, kabili na bo balebombela mu ng’anda ya kupepelamo. 33 Baletiina Yehova,+ lelo balepepa balesa babo+, ukulingana ne mipepele ya mu nko umo babasendele bunkole.+
34 Ukufika na lelo, bacita ukulingana ne mipepele yabo iya kale.+ Takwali abaletiina Yehova+ kabili takwali abalecita ifintu ukulingana ne fipope fyakwe no bupingushi+ na mafunde+ ne fyebo ifyo Yehova aebele abana ba kwa Yakobo,+ uo ayalwile ishina ukuba Israele;+ 35 ilyo Yehova apangene nabo icipangano+ no kubeba ati: “Mwilatiina balesa bambi,+ kabili mwilabakontamina nangu kubabombela nangu kubepaila amalambo.+ 36 Lelo Yehova uwamufumishe mu calo ca Egupti ku maka ayakalamba no kuboko ukwatambalikwa,+ e o muletiina+ kabili e o mulekontamina,+ kabili e o muleipaila amalambo.+ 37 Kabili lyonse mulebika amano ku kukulakonka+ ifipope+ no bupingushi+ na mafunde ayo amulembele;+ kabili mwilatiina balesa bambi. 38 Kabili mwikalaba icipangano ico napangana na imwe;+ kabili mwilatiina balesa bambi.+ 39 Lelo Yehova+ Lesa wenu e o muletiina fye, pantu e ukamupokolola ku balwani benu.”+
40 Kabili tabaumfwilile, lelo balecita ukulingana ne mipepele yabo iya kale.+ 41 Kabili shilya nko shatendeke ukutiina Yehova+, lelo shalebombela ifimpashanya fya shiko ifyabaswa. Kabili abana babo na beshikulu babo, filya fine ifikolwe fyabo fyalecita, e fyo na bo bacita ukufika na buno bushiku.
