2. Ndipo opandukawo analowadi m'zobvunda; koma Ine ndine wakuwadzudzula onsewo.

5. Ndipo kudzikuza kwa Israyeli kudzamcitira umboni pamaso pace; cifukwa cace Israyeli ndi Efraimu adzakhumudwa m'mphulupulu mwao; Yudanso adzakhumudwa pamodzi nao.
6. Adzamuka ndi zoweta zao zazing'ono ndi zazikuru kufunafuna Yehova: koma sadzampeza; Iye wadzibweza kuwacokera.
