I marry dem two and dem born shidren for mi. 5 Even doh e bi my wife, Oholah still dey do ashawo and e dey run follow Assyria sojas 6 wey wear purpol uniform; pipol wey dem dey respet, honor and wey fine well-well. 7 Na Oholah all di ofisas for Assyria dey sleep with, so e kon dirty ensef as e dey woship Assyria juju. 8 E still dey do ashawo and na from Egypt e for start to sleep with difren pipol. Na since e yong, men don dey sleep with am and dem dey trit am like ashawo. 9 So I kon gi-am to Assyria pipol wey e love well-well. 10 Dem naked am kon take en shidren komot en hand, den dem kill-am with dia swod. E kon turn who nor get shidren again and dem dey ponish am for evriwhere for di world. 11 Even doh en sista Oholibah si wetin happen, en own ashawo kon strong well-well pass Oholah own. 12 En too love Assyria ofisas; di sojas wey wear fine uniform and e even love di main ofisas and all di men wey fine. 13 I si sey e bad well-well.

Where men for dey play with yor breast and sleep with yu.
God Judge Di Yonga Sista
22 “Naw, Oholibah, dis na wetin God wey get pawa dey tell yu. Yu don taya for yor lovers, but I go make dem vex and gada round yu. 23 All di men for Babilon and Kaldea, I go bring dem kom from Pekod, Shoa, Koa and Assyria. I go gada doz fine men togeda. 24 Dem go attack yu from nort with many sojas and shariot. Dem wear shield and helmet for head and dem go gada round yu. I go give yu to dem and dem go judge yu with dia own law. 25 Bikos I dey vex for yu, I go let dem ponish yu as dem dey vex. Dem go kut yor nose and ear komot and dem go kill yor shidren. Yes! Dem go take yor shidren from yor hand kon burn dem alive. 26 Dem go tear yor klot kon take all yor gold. 27 I go stop yor yeye life and all di nonsense wey yu don do since wen yu bi small girl for Egypt. Yu nor go look anytin wey bi like juju again or tink about Egypt.”
28 Dis na wetin God wey get pawa dey tok: “I go give yu to pipol wey yu hate well-well. 29 Bikos dem hate yu, dem go take evritin wey yu don work for and yu nor go get anytin again; yu go dey naked like ashawo. Na yor yeye and ashawo life 30 make all dis tins dey happen to yu. Yu bi dia ashawo and yu don spoil yor body with dia juju. 31 Yu dey do as yor sista dey do and I go give yu dis ponishment cup wey I give yor sista make e drink from.”
32 God wey get pawa sey, “Yu go drink from yor sista cup; e dey big and deep. Evribody go laf yu well-well, bikos yor cup don full. 33 Di cup go make life taya yu and yu go bi like man wey don drink well-well. Dis cup get fear; wahala full am and na yor sista, Samaria, get am. 34 Yu go drink am dry, break am to pieces kon use am take tear yor breast.”
Mi, God wey get pawa, don tok.
35 Naw, dis na wetin God wey get pawa dey tok: “Bikos yu forget and turn from mi, yu go sofa for yor ashawo life.”
God Judge Di Two Sistas
36 God tell mi, “Man pikin, yu dey ready to judge Oholah and Oholibah? Judge dem for di yeye life wey dem live. 37 Dem sleep with pipol husband kon kill many pipol. Dem sleep with juju kon kill di boys wey dem born for mi. Dem sakrifice my shidren give juju. 38 Since dat one nor rish dem, dem dirty my temple kon skata di Sabat wey I make holy. 39 Di day wey dem sakrifice my shidren give juju, na dat day dem still dirty my temple! 40 Evritime, dem go send pipol go invite men kom from far. Di two sistas go baf kon take difren tins with gold take design dia face. 41 Dem go sidan for betta chair and for dia front, fine-fine tins like incense and olive oil wey I give dem, dey di tabol. 42 Pipol wey nor kare dey der dey shaut and na wildaness dem from bring dis pipol. Dem put shain for di wimen hand kon wear betta crown for dia head. 43 Den I tok about dis ashawo woman sey, ‘Dem go sleep with am naw.’ 44 Dem dey sleep with am just as dem dey sleep with ashawo. Like dis, dem don sleep with Oholah and Oholibah wey bi ashawo. 45 Pipol wey dey do good go ponish dem, bikos dem kill and sleep with pipol and di pipol blood dey dia hand.”
46 So, dis na wetin God wey get pawa dey tok: “Make yu bring pipol wey go give dem wahala and tif from dem. 47 Make dem stone and attack dem with swods; kill dia shidren kon burn dia house rish groun. 48 I go stop all dis yeye life for dis land and e go bi warnin to wimen sey, make dem nor sleep with who nor bi dia husband, bikos dis na wetin dem dey do. 49 But for dis two sistas; I go ponish dem for dia ashawo life and di juju wey dem dey serve. Den una go know sey na mi bi God wey get pawa.”
