9 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.
9 Watakuja kwa kulia, na kwa maombi nitawaongoza; nitawaendesha penye mito ya maji, katika njia iliyonyoka; katika njia hiyo hawatajikwaa; maana mimi ni baba wa Israeli, na Efraimu ni mzaliwa wa kwanza wangu.
