1Umthwa­lo uHa­bha­khu­khi umpro­fe­thi awu­bo­na­yoa.

2 Nko­si, ngi­za­kha­lab ku­ze ku­be ni­nic, we­na unge­zwa! ngi­me­me­za ku­wede ngo­dla­ke­lafg, we­na unga­si­ndi­si!

3 Ungi­tshe­ngi­se­la­ni isi­pha­mbe­koh, ukha­nge­le inka­tha­zoi? Ngo­ba inci­tha­ka­loj lo­dla­ke­lak ku­pha­mbi kwa­mi, nja­lo ku­le­nka­ni, ku­pha­ka­me ingxa­ba­nol.

4 Nga­kho-ke umla­yo uya­ye­ke­thi­sam, le­sa­hlu­le­lo ka­si­phu­mi la­ka­nye; ngo­ba omu­bin uha­nqa olu­ngi­le­yoo; nga­kho-ke isa­hlu­le­lo esi­go­bi­le­yo si­ya­phu­ma.

INko­si ivu­se­la uJu­da ama­Kha­la­di­ya

5 Bo­na­ni pha­ka­thi kwa­be­zi­zwe, li­kha­nge­lep, ma­nga­la­ni li­ma­nga­leq, ngo­ba ngi­za­kwe­nza umse­be­nzi ezi­nsu­kwi­ni ze­nu, e­li­nga­yi­kuwu­kho­lwa, la­nxa ula­ndi­swa.

6 Ngo­ba, kha­nge­la­ni, ngi­vu­sar ama­Kha­la­di­ya, isi­zwe esi­le­si­hlu­kus le­si­pha­ngi­sa­yot, esi­za­ha­mba ebu­ba­nzi­ni bo­mhla­bau, uku­dla ili­fa le­nda­wo zo­ku­hla­lav ezi­nge­yi­si­zo eza­sow.

7 Si­ye­sa­be­ka, si­ye­thu­sax; isa­hlu­le­lo sa­so lo­ku­pha­ka­ma kwa­so ku­za­phu­ma ku­soy.

8 Ama­bhi­za aso la­wo ale­ju­ba­nez ku­le­zi­ngwea, nja­lo abu­kha­li ku­le­zi­mpi­si za­ku­si­hlwab; la­ba­ga­di ba­ma­bhi­za ba­so ba­za­sa­ba­la­lac, la­ba­ga­di ba­ma­bhi­za ba­so ba­za­ve­la kha­tsha­nad; ba­za­ndi­zae nje­ngo­kho­zif o­lu­pha­ngi­se­la uku­dlag.

9 Bo­nke ba­za­fi­ke­la udla­ke­la; uku­bu­tha­na ko­bu­so ba­bo ku­nga­se­mpu­ma­la­nga; ba­bu­the aba­thu­nji­we­yoh nje­nge­tshe­be­tshe­bei.

10 Bo­na-ke ba­za­klo­lo­de­la ama­kho­si, la­ba­bu­si ba­za­ku­ba yi­nhle­ki­sa ki­bo; bo­na ba­za­hle­ka usu­lu nga­yo yo­nke inqa­baj, ngo­ba ba­za­bu­the­le­la uthu­lik, ba­yi­thu­mbe.

11 Be­se­si­khu­khu­la nje­ngo­mo­ya, se­dlu­lel, si­pha­mbe­kem, si­ba­le­la la ama­ndla aso ku­nku­lu­nku­lu wa­son.

UHa­bha­khu­khi uya­so­la eNko­si­ni

12 Ka­wu­su­ke­li epha­ka­de­ni yi­nio, Nko­si Nku­lu­nku­lu wa­mi, oNgcwe­le wa­mi? Ka­si­yi­ku­fap. We­na, Nko­si, uba­mi­se­le isa­hlu­le­loq; la­we Dwa­la, uba­mi­se­le isi­je­zi­sor.

13 We­na uhla­mbu­lu­ke ka­khu­lu eme­hlwe­ni ku­lo­ku­thi ubo­ne oku­bi, onge­la­ku­kha­nge­la inka­tha­zos. Uba­kha­nge­le­la­nit aba­kho­hli­sa­youv, uthu­la la­pho omu­bi egi­nyaw olu­ngi­le­yo ku­la­yex?

14 Ese­nza aba­ntu ba­be nje­nge­nhla­nzi zo­lwa­ndley, nje­nge­zi­nto ezi­ha­ha­ba­yoz, ezi­nge­la­mbu­si phe­zu kwa­zo?

15 Ba­ya­ba­khu­pha bo­nkea nge­ngwe­gweb, ba­ba­ba­mbe embu­le­ni la­boc, ba­ba­bu­the embu­le­ni la­bod; nga­kho-ke ba­ya­tho­ko­za ba­ja­bu­le.

16 Nga­kho-ke ba­ya­li­hla­be­lae imbu­le la­bof, ba­tshi­se­le imbu­le la­bo impe­phag; ngo­ba nga­kho isa­be­lo sa­bo si­no­ni­le, lo­ku­dla kwa­bo ku­la­ma­fu­tha.

17 Nga­kho-ke ba­ya­thu­lu­la imbu­le la­bo yi­ni, ba­nga­ye­ke­li yi­ni uku­bu­la­la izi­zwe nja­lo­nja­loh?

Impe­ndu­lo ye­Nko­si

2Ngi­za­ku­ma enda­we­ni ya­mi yo­ku­li­ndaa, ngi­zi­mi­se enqa­be­ni, ngi­li­nde, uku­ze ngi­bo­neb uku­thi iza­ku­thi­ni ki­mi, lo­ku­thi ngi­za­phe­ndu­la ngi­thi­ni eku­so­lwe­ni kwa­mic.

2 INko­si ya­si­ngi­phe­ndu­la ya­thi: Bha­la umbo­nod, uwe­nze uca­ce phe­zu kwe­zi­bhe­bhe, uku­ze ogi­ji­ma­yo awu­fu­ndee.

3 Ngo­ba umbo­nof use­za­ku­ba ngo­we­si­kha­thi esi­mi­si­we­yog; ko­dwa uza­khu­lu­ma eku­ci­ne­ni, unga­qa­mbi ama­ngah; la­nxai uphu­zaj, uwu­li­nde­lek; ngo­ba isi­bi­li uza­fi­kal, ka­wu­yi­ku­phu­zam.

4 Kha­nge­la, uzi­khu­khu­me­zan, umphe­fu­mu­lo wa­kheo ka­wu­qo­nda­nga ku­ye; ko­dwa olu­ngi­le­yo uza­phi­la ngo­kho­lo lwa­khepq.

5 Ye­bo fu­thi, ngo­ba ekho­hli­sar nge­wa­yi­nis, engu­mu­ntu ozi­khu­khu­me­za­yo, enga­hla­li ekha­yat, ekhu­li­sa isi­lo­yi­so sa­kheu nje­nge­si­ho­gov, fu­thi unje­ngo­ku­fa, ka­su­thi­se­kiw, ko­dwa ubu­the­le­la ku­ye zo­nke izi­zwex, azi­qo­qe­le bo­nke aba­ntuy.

6 Bo­nke la­ba ka­ba­yi­ku­pha­ka­mi­saz umze­ke­li­so nga­ye yi­nia, le­sa­gabc esi­yi­nhle­ki­sad nga­ye? Nja­lo ba­za­ku­thi: Ma­ye ku­ye owa­ndi­sa oku­nge­yi­si­kho okwa­khee! Ko­ze ku­be ni­nif? Lo­ze­thwe­sa nge­zi­ba­mbi­so.

7 Ka­ba­yi­ku­hle ba­su­ku­me ba­ku­lu­me yi­nig, ba­vu­ke aba­za­ku­thu­thu­me­li­sa yi­nih? Nja­lo uza­ku­ba yi­zi­mpa­ngo ku­boi.

8 Ngo­ba we­na uzi­pha­ngi­le izi­zwe ezi­ne­ngij, yo­nke insa­li ya­ba­ntuk iza­ku­pha­ngal; nge­nxa ye­ga­zi eli­ne­ngi la­ba­ntum, lo­dla­ke­la lwe­li­zwen, umu­zi, la­bo bo­nke aba­hla­la ki­woo.

9 Ma­ye ko­zu­ze­la indlu ya­khe inzu­zo embip, uku­ze abe­ke isi­dle­ke sa­kheq nga­phe­zu­lu, uku­ze akhu­lu­lwe esa­ndle­ni so­bu­bir.

10 Indlu ya­kho usu­yi­ce­be­le ihla­zo, ngo­ku­qu­ma aba­ntu aba­ne­ngi; wo­ni­le ume­le­ne lo­mphe­fu­mu­lo wa­khos.

11 Ngo­ba ili­tshe li­za­kha­la li­se­mdu­li­nit, lo­thu­ngo lu­li­phe­ndu­le lu­se­si­go­dwe­ni.

12 Ma­ye ko­wa­kha umu­zi nge­ga­zi eli­ne­ngiu, ami­se ido­lo­bho nge­si­pha­mbe­kov.

13 Kha­nge­la, ka­ku­ve­li eNko­si­ni ya­ma­ba­ndla yi­ni uku­thi izi­zwe zi­za­tshi­ka­tshi­ke­law umli­lox, la­ba­ntuy ba­zi­di­ni­sez nge­zea?

14 Ngo­ba umhla­ba uza­gcwa­lab ngo­lwa­zic lwe­nka­zi­mu­lo ye­Nko­sid, nje­nga­ma­nzi esi­be­ke­la ulwa­ndlee.

15 Ma­ye ko­na­thi­sa uma­khe­lwa­ne wa­khef, othu­lu­lag imbo­dle­la ya­khoh, omda­ki­sa la­yei, uku­ze ubu­ke­le ubu­nqu­nu ba­boj!

16 Uza­su­tha nge­hla­zo ku­lo­du­mok; na­tha la­we, we­mbu­le ijwa­bul! Inke­zo ye­sa­ndla se­Nko­si so­ku­ne­ne iza­phe­ndu­ke­la ku­wem, le­hla­zo li­be phe­zu ko­du­mo lwa­khon.

17 Ngo­ba udla­ke­lao lwe­Le­bha­no­ni lu­za­ku­si­be­ke­lap, lo­ku­chi­the­ka kwe­zi­nya­ma­za­na ku­be­thu­seq, nge­nxa ye­ga­zi eli­ne­ngi la­ba­ntur, lo­dla­ke­la lwe­li­zwes, umu­zi, la­bo bo­nke aba­hla­la ki­wot.

18 Si­si­za­ni isi­tho­mbe esi­ba­zi­we­yo lo­khu umbu­mbi wa­so esi­ba­zi­leu? Ku­mbe isi­tho­mbe esi­bu­njwe ngo­ku­nci­bi­li­ki­sa, lo­mfu­ndi­si wa­ma­ngav, oku­thi umbu­mbi athe­mbe ko­ku­bu­nji­we­yo kwa­khe, ukwe­nza izi­tho­mbe ezi­yi­zi­mu­ngu­luw?

19 Ma­ye ku­ye otsho ku­so isi­go­do: Pha­pha­ma! Le­li­tshe­ni eli­yi­si­mu­ngu­lu: Vu­ka, lo­na li­za­fu­ndi­sa! Kha­nge­la, ku­na­nye­kwe nge­go­li­de le­si­li­va, nja­lo ku­nge­kho mo­ya pha­ka­thi kwa­khox.

20 Ko­dwa iNko­si ise­the­mpe­li­ni la­yo eli­ngcwe­ley; thu­la pha­mbi kwa­yo, mhla­ba wo­nkez.

Umkhu­le­ko ka­Ha­bha­khu­khi

2 Nko­si, ngi­zwi­le umbi­ko wa­khob, nge­sa­bac; Nko­si, vu­se­le­lad umse­be­nzi wa­kho pha­ka­thi kwe­mi­nya­ka, pha­ka­thi kwe­mi­nya­ka we­nze kwa­zi­wee; ola­ke­ni ukhu­mbu­le umu­saf.

3 UNku­lu­nku­lu wa­ve­la eThe­ma­nig, lo­Ngcwe­le enta­be­ni ye­Pa­ra­nih. Se­la*. Inka­zi­mu­lo ya­khe ya­si­be­ke­la ama­zu­lu, lo­mhla­ba wa­gcwa­la indu­mi­so ya­khe.

4 Lo­ku­cwa­zi­mu­la kwa­ku­nje­ngo­ku­kha­nya, wa­ye­le­mi­se­be ephu­ma esa­ndle­ni sa­khe; nja­lo ku­la­pho okwa­fi­hlwa ama­ndla akhei.

5 Pha­mbi kwa­khe kwa­ha­mba uma­tsha­ya­bhu­qe we­si­foj, le­la­nga­bi la­phu­makl ezi­nya­we­ni za­khem.

6 We­ma, wa­li­nga­ni­sa umhla­ba; wa­bo­na, wa­thu­thu­me­li­sa izi­zwen; le­nta­ba za­pha­ka­deo za­hla­ka­ze­kap, ama­qa­qa ama­ndu­lo akho­tha­maq; izi­ndle­la za­pha­ka­de zi­nge­za­khe.

7 Nga­bo­na ama­the­nte eKu­sha­nir pha­nsi kwe­nhlu­phe­kos; ama­khe­the­ni eli­zwe le­Mi­di­ya­ni athu­thu­me­lat.

8 INko­si ya­thu­ku­the­le­lau imi­fu­la yi­niv? Ula­ka lwa­kho lwa­lu­me­le­ne le­mi­fu­la yi­niw? Intu­ku­the­lo ya­kho ya­yi­me­le­ne lo­lwa­ndle yi­ni, lo­khu uga­de ama­bhi­za akho, izi­nqo­la za­kho zo­si­ndi­sox?

9 Ida­ndi­li la­kho le­mbu­li­we la­ve­la oba­lay, nje­ngo­kwe­zi­fu­ngo ze­zi­zwe, ngi­tsho ili­zwiz la­kho. Se­la*. Wa­qhe­ke­za umhla­baa nge­mi­fu­lab.

10 Inta­bac za­ku­bo­nad, za­thu­thu­me­lae; isi­khu­khu­la sa­ma­nzi se­dlu­la; uku­ju­la kwa­khu­pha ili­zwi la­khof, kwa­pha­ka­mi­se­la iza­ndla za­kho phe­zu­lug.

11 Ila­nga le­nya­nga kwe­mah enda­we­ni ya­kho yo­ku­hla­lai; eku­kha­nye­ni imi­tsho­ko ya­kho ya­ha­mbaj, ngo­ku­kha­zi­mu­la ko­ku­pha­zi­ma ko­mkho­nto wa­khok.

12 Ngo­ku­thu­ku­the­la wa­nya­the­la ili­zwel, ngo­la­ka wa­bhu­la izi­zwem.

13 Wa­phu­me­la usi­ndi­so lwa­ba­ntu ba­khon, usi­ndi­so lo­gco­tshi­we­yo wa­khoo; uli­ma­za ikha­nda endli­ni yo­kho­hla­ke­le­yop, ngo­kwe­mbu­la isi­se­ke­loq ku­ze ku­be se­nta­nye­nir. Se­la*.

14 Wa­hla­ba nge­mi­kho­nto ya­khe inhlo­ko ya­ma­do­da akhe empis; ba­ba nje­nge­si­vu­ngu­za­net uku­ngi­hla­ka­zau; uku­tho­ko­za kwa­bo kwa­ku­nje­ngo­ku­dla aba­ya­nga nga­se­sev.

15 Wa­nya­the­la pha­ka­thi ko­lwa­ndlew nga­ma­bhi­za akhox, inqu­mbi ya­ma­nzi ama­ne­ngi.

16 La­pho ngi­si­zway, isi­su sa­mi sa­thu­thu­me­laz; inde­be za­mi za­qha­qha­ze­la nge­li­zwi; uku­bo­la kwa­nge­na ema­tha­nje­ni ami, nga­thu­thu­me­la enda­we­ni ya­mia, uku­ze ngi­phu­mu­le ngo­su­ku lo­hlu­phob; la­pho ese­nyu­ka eme­le­ne la­ba­ntu uza­ba­hla­se­lac.

17 Lo­ba umkhi­wa unga­kha­hle­li, ku­nge­kho le­si­vu­no se­si­vi­ni, umse­be­nzi wo­mhlwa­thi uza­phu­thad, la­ma­si­mu anga­ve­zi uku­dla, izi­mvu zi­za­qu­nywae zi­su­ke esi­ba­ye­nif, ku­nga­bi kho­na inko­mo ezi­ba­ye­ni;
