16 UJehova wasesithi kuMosi: “Usuzakufa* njalo abantu laba bazaqala ukukhonza onkulunkulu* bezinye izizwe ezizabe zingomakhelwane babo elizweni abaya kulo.+ Bazangitshiya+ futhi bephule isivumelwano sami engisenze labo.+

6 Ngomnyaka wesi-9 wokubusa kukaHosheya, inkosi ye-Asiriya yanqoba iSamariya+ yasithumba abantu bako-Israyeli+ yabahambisa e-Asiriya. Yabahlalisa eHala laseHabhori ngasemfuleni uGozani+ kanye lasemadolobheni amaMede.+

7 Lokhu kwenzakala ngenxa yokona kwabako-Israyeli phambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wabo owabakhipha elizweni leGibhithe esandleni sikaFaro inkosi yeGibhithe.+ Babekhonza* abanye onkulunkulu,+

 7 Kodwa benze njengabantu abalesono, bephula isivumelwano sami.+

Bangidanise ngithembile elizweni labo.
