| 1. | Ke kaloku kwathi ngomnyaka wesixhenxe, ngenyanga yesihlanu, ngolweshumi enyangeni leyo, kwafika amadoda, evela kumadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli, ukuba abuzise kuYehova. Ahlala phantsi phambi kwam. |
| 2. | Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi, |
| 3. | Nyana womntu, thetha namadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli, uthi kuwo, Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Nize kubuzisa kum na? Ndihleli nje, unakanye ukuba ndibuzwe nini; itsho iNkosi uYehova. |
| 4. | Uza kubagweba na, uza kugweba na, nyana womntu? Bazise ke amasikizi ooyise. |
| 5. | Yithi kubo, Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Ngemini endamnyulayo uSirayeli, endayiphakamiselayo isandla sam imbewu yendlu kaYakobi, endazazisayo kubo ezweni laseYiputa, endabapha kamisela isandla sam, ndisithi, NdinguYehova uThixo wenu: |
| 6. | ngaloo mini kanye, ndabaphakamisela isandla sam, ukuze ndibakhuphe ezweni laseYiputa, ndibase ezweni endabahlolelayo lona, elibaleka amasi nobusi, liligugu kunamazwe onke. |
| 7. | Ndathi kubo, Lahlani elowo izinto ezinezothe zamehlo akhe, ningazenzi iinqambi ngezigodo zaseYiputa; ndinguYehova uThixo wenu. |
| 8. | Basuka baba neenkani kum, abavuma ukundiphulaphula, abazilahla elowo izinto ezinezothe zamehlo akhe, abazishiya izigodo zaseYiputa. Ndathi ke, ndiya kuthulula ubushushu bam phezu kwabo, ndiwuphelelisele kubo umsindo wam phakathi kwelizwe laseYiputa. |
| 9. | Koko ndenzayo ngenxa yegama lam; ukuze lingahlanjelwa emehlweni eentlanga, ababephakathi kwazo, endazazisa kubo emehlweni azo, ekubakhupheni kwam ezweni laseYiputa. |
| 10. | Ndabakhupha ke ezweni laseYiputa, ndabasa entlango; |
| 11. | ndabanika imimiselo yam, ndabazisa namasiko am, awothi umntu ewenzile, aphile ngawo. |
| 12. | Kananjalo ndabanika iisabatha zam, ukuba zibe ngumqondiso phakathi kwam nabo, ukuze bazi ukuba mna Yehova ndiya bangcwalisa. |
| 13. | Indlu kaSirayeli yesuka yaba neenkani kum entlango; abahamba ngemimiselo yam; bawacekisa amasiko am, awothi umntu ewenzile, aphile ngawo; bazihlambela kakhulu iisabatha zam. Ndathi ke, ndiya kuthulula ubushushu bam phezu kwabo entlango, ukuze ndibagqibele. |
| 14. | Koko ndenzayo ngenxa yegama lam; ukuze lingahlanjelwa emehlweni eentlanga, endabakhuphayo emehlweni azo. |
| 15. | Kananjalo mna ndabaphakamisela isandla entlango, ukuba ndingabasi ezweni endandibanikile, elibaleka amasi nobusi, liligugu kunamazwe onke; |
| 16. | ngenxa yokuba bawacekisayo amasiko am, abahamba ngemimiselo yam, bazihlambela iisabatha zam; ngokuba intliziyo yabo yazilandela izigodo zabo. |
| 17. | Koko laba nenceba iliso lam kubo, ukuba ndingabatshabalalisi, ndingabagqibeli entlango. |
| 18. | Ndathi ke koonyana babo entlango, Musani ukuhamba ngemimiselo yooyihlo, ningawagcini amasiko abo, ningazenzi iinqambi ngezigodo zabo. |
| 19. | Mna Yehova ndinguThixo wenu; hambani ngemimiselo yam, niwagcine amasiko am, niwenze; |
| 20. | nizingcwalise iisabatha zam, zibe ngumqondiso phakathi kwam nani, ukuze nazi ukuba ndinguYehova uThixo wenu. |
| 21. | Basuka oonyana baba neenkani kum; abahamba ngemimiselo yam, abawagcina amasiko am ukuba bawenze, awothi umntu ewenzile aphile ngawo; bazihlambela iisabatha zam. Ndathi ke, ndiya kuthulula ubushushu bam phezu kwabo, ndiphelelisele umsindo wam kubo entlango. |
| 22. | Koko ndasibuyisayo isandla sam, ndenza ngenxa yegama lam, ukuba lingahlanjelwa emehlweni eentlanga, endabakhuphayo emehlweni azo. |
| 23. | Kananjalo ndabaphakamisela isandla sam entlango, ukuba ndibachithachithe ezintlangeni, ndibaphangalalisele emazweni; |
| 24. | ngenxa enokuba bengawenzanga amasiko am, bayicekisayo imimiselo yam, bazihlambela iisabatha zam, amehlo abo alandela izigodo zooyise. |
| 25. | Nam ndabamisela imimiselo engabalungeleyo, namasiko abangenakuphila ngawo. |
| 26. | Ndabenza iinqambi ngezipho zabo, ekucandiseni kwabo emlilweni yonke into evula isizalo, ukuze ndibaphanzise; ukuze bazi ukuba ndinguYehova. |
| 27. | Ngako oko, thetha kwindlu kaSirayeli, nyana womntu, uthi kubo, Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Ooyihlo babuye bandinyelisa nangale nto, ekumenezeni kwabo ababemeneza ngako kum. |
| 28. | Kuba xenikweni ndabasayo ezweni endasiphakamiselayo isandla sam sokuba ndibanike lona, basuka bakhangela zonke iinduli ezinde, nemithi yonke ethe shinyi; bayibingelela khona imibingelelo yabo, banikela khona imisondezo yabo equmbisayo, babeka khona ivumba lamadini abo elithozamisayo, bathululela khona iminikelo yabo ethululwayo. |
| 29. | Ndathi ke kubo, Esi siganga niya kuso siyintoni na? Igama laso ke kuthiwa, siSiganga, unanamhla. |
| 30. | Ngako oko yithi kwindlu kaSirayeli, Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Nizenze iinqambi ngendlela yooyihlo, nihenyuze ngokulandela izinto zabo ezinezothe nje; |
| 31. | nizenze iinqambi ezigodweni zenu ngokunikela izipho zenu, nangokuba candisa emlilweni oonyana benu nanamhlanje; mna ndingabuzwa nini na, ndlu kaSirayeli? Ndihleli nje, itsho iNkosi uYehova, andiyi kubuzwa nini, nakanye. |
| 32. | Loo nto ithe qatha emoyeni wenu, ayiyi kubakho nokubakho: leyo nithi, Siya kuba njengeentlanga, njengemizalwane yamazwe, silungiselele kwimithi namatye. |
| 33. | Ndihleli nje, inyaniso, itsho iNkosi uYehova, ngesandla esithe nkqi, nangengalo eyolukileyo, nangobushushu obuthululwayo, ndiya kuba ngukumkani phezu kwenu. |
| 34. | Ndonikhupha ezizweni, ndinibuthe emazweni enaphangalaliswa kuwo, ngesandla esithe nkqi, nangengalo eyolukileyo, nangobushushu obuthululwayo, |
| 35. | Ndiya kunisa kwintlango yezizwe, ndimangalelane nani, sikhangelane ebusweni; |
| 36. | njengoko ndamangalelana nooyihlo kwintlango yelizwe laseYiputa, ndiya kwenjenjalo ukumangalelana nani; itsho iNkosi uYehova. |
| 37. | Ndoniphumelisa phantsi kwentonga, ndinibophelele ngomnqophiso; |
| 38. | ndibakhethe kuni abagwilikayo nabakreqayo kum. Ndiya kubakhupha ezweni lokuphambukela kwabo; ke akuyi kungena namnye emhlabeni wakwaSirayeli, ukuze nazi ukuba ndinguYehova. |
| 39. | Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Nina ke, ndlu kaSirayeli, hambani, nikhonze elowo isigodo sakhe; kodwa emveni koko, inyaniso, niya kundiphulaphula, ningabi salihlambela igama lam elingcwele ngezipho zenu nangezigodo zenu. |
| 40. | Ngokuba itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Entabeni yam engcwele, entabeni ende yakwaSirayeli, khona apho iya kundikhonza yonke indlu yakwaSirayeli, yonke iphela ezweni; khona apho baya kuba likholo kum; khona apho ndiya kubiza imirhumo yenu neentlahlela yezipho zenu, entweni yenu yonke eniyingcwalisayo. |
| 41. | Niya kuba likholo kum ninevumba elithozamisayo, ekunikhupheni kwam ezizweni; ndinibuthe emazweni enaphangalaliswa kuwo, ndizingcwalisele kuni emehlweni eentlanga; |
| 42. | nazi ukuba ndinguYehova, ekuniseni kwam emhlabeni wakwaSirayeli, ezweni endasiphakamisela isandla sam sokuba ndilinike ooyihlo, |
| 43. | Niya kuzikhumbula khona iindlela zenu neentlondi zenu zonke, enazenza iinqambi ngazo; nizikruqukele ngokwenu ngenxa yazo zonke izinto ezimbi enizenzileyo; |
| 44. | nazi ukuba ndinguYehova, ekuniphatheni kwam ngenxa yegama lam, kungekhona ngokweendlela zenu ezimbi, nangokweentlondi zenu ezibolileyo, ndlu kaSirayeli; itsho iNkosi uYehova. |
| 45. | Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi, |
| 46. | Nyana womntu, bhekisa ubuso bakho kwelasezantsi, uwise intetho usingise ezantsi, uprofete ngehlathi lelizwe lasezantsi; |
| 47. | uthi kwihlathi lelizwe lasezantsi, Live ilizwi likaYehova; itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Yabona, ndifaka umlilo kuwe, utshise kuwe wonke umthi omanzi, nawo wonke umthi owomileyo. Akuyi kucima dangatye lamadangatye; borhawuka ubuso babantu bonke, kuthabathele ezantsi kuse entla, |
| 48. | Yobona yonke inyama, ukuba mna Yehova ndiwubasile; awuyi kucinywa. |
| 49. | Ndathi, Awu! Nkosi Yehova, bathi ngam lo, Akenzi ngemizekeliso kodwa na? |
