Abaherezi, umwami n'ihanga bose barahamagawe. Ivyo bakora ntibibareka ngo bagaruke, kandi iyo bagiye kumurondera bajanye imikumbi n'amashushu, Data aba yamaze kwiyigiza kure. Yiyita ukubora kuri Yuda n'intambwe kuri Efurayimu, hanyuma akagenda gushika amagorwa abagarukanye.
5 1Nimwumve iki, mwa baherezi! Nimwitege amatwi, mwa bene Isirayeli! Nimwumve, mwa benzi b’umwami! Kuko urubanza rubagenewe, kubera ko mwabaye umutego i Misipa n’urusenga rwanzwe kuri Tabori.
2“Abagumutsi binjiye cane mu kwica, ariko nzobahana bose. 3Ndamuzi Efurayimu, na Isirayeli ntiyankingiwe; kuko ubu, wewe Efurayimu, waramaze kwiraba, na Isirayeli arahumanye.
4“Ibikorwa vyabo ntibizobareka ngo basubire kuri Se wabo, kuko mu bwo barimwo harimwo impwemu y’uburaya, kandi ntibazi Data wa twese. 5Ubwibone bwa Isirayeli bumushinja; Isirayeli na Efurayimu batsitara mu caha cabo; na Yuda atsitarana na bo. 6N’imikuku yabo n’ubushyo bwabo bazogenda kurondera Data wa twese, ariko ntibazomubona; yarabiyeguye. 7Bagiriye Data wa twese ubugarariji, kuko bibarutse abana b’ikinyoma. Ubu ukwezi gushasha kuzobamira hamwe n’imirima yabo.
8“Nimuvuze inzamba i Gibeya, iryamba i Rama. Nimuvuze induru y’intambara i Beti-aveni; nurabe inyuma yawe, Benyamini! 9Efurayimu azoba irungu ku musi w’igihano; mu miryango ya Isirayeli nmenyekanisha ivy’ukuri. 10Abaganwa ba Yuda bameze nk’abimura ibuye ry’umbibe; muri bo nzosukamwo uburake bwanje nk’amazi. 11Efurayimu arahahazwa, aramenyagurwa mu rubanza, kuko yari yiyemeje gukurikira ibigirwamana vy’ubusa. 12Nuko ndi nk’inyegeri kuri Efurayimu, kandi nk’uburabirabi ku benzi ba Yuda.
13“Efurayimu yabonye indwara yiwe, Yuda yabona igisebe ciwe gikinguye; nuko Efurayimu yiruka aja i Ashuri, yitura umwami waho ahambaye. Ariko uwo mwami ntashobora kukuvura, canke gukiza igisebe cawe gibumbira. 14Kuko nzoba nk’intambwe kuri Efurayimu, kandi nk’intambwe nto ku benzi ba Yuda. Jewe nyene nzotabagura nce ngenda; nzojana, kandi nta n’umwe azotabara. 15Nzosubira iwanje, gushika basubize amaso icaha cabo bongere barondere mu maso hanje; mu makuba yabo bazonrondera n’umwete.”
