2 "Ni mwebwe mwenyene natoranije

9 Nimumenyeshe abari mu bihome bikomeye vy’i Ashidodi

n’abo mu ngoro zikomeye zo muri Egiputa muti:

‘Nimukoranire ku misozi y’i Samariya;

mwirabire umuryano waho,

n’agacinyizo kari mu bantu baho.’

10 Ntibazi gukora ivyiza," ni ko Uhoraho avuze,

"bujuje mu mazu yabo akomeye

ivyo banyaze, n’ivyo bakuye mu bwicanyi."

11 Nuko rero uku ni ko Uhoraho Nyeninganji avuze:

"Umwansi azokwifatira igihugu canyu,

anyage ibiri mu ngoro zawe vyose."

12 Uku ni ko Uhoraho avuze:

"Nk’uko umwungere agerageza kurokora intama mu kanwa k’intambwe

akayaka amagufa y’amaguru gusa canke agace k’ugutwi,

ni ko Abisirayeli baba i Samariya bazorokoka,

bazokiza umutwe w’uburiri gusa

n’igice c’impuzu bisasiye.

13 Nimwumve ibi kandi mubimenyeshe aba Yakobo," ni ko Uhoraho Imana Mushoboravyose, avuze.

14 "Ku musi nzohanirako Abisirayeli kubera ivyaha vyabo,

nzosambura ibicaniro vy’i Beteli;

amahembe y’igicaniro azocibwa

akorokere hasi.

15 Nzosenyurira hasi inzu yo mu gihe c’imbeho nyinshi

hamwe n’inzu yo mu gihe c’ubushuhe;

amazu asharijwe n’amahembe y’inzovu azosamburwa

n’inyubakwa zagutse zizosamburirwa hasi,"

ni ko Uhoraho avuze.
