Intaba Yendlu KaSimakade
1Indaba eyabonwa ngu-Izaya, indodana ka-Amozi, maqondana noJuda neJerusalema.
2Kuyothi ngezinsuku zokugcina,
intaba yendlu kaSimakade
imiswe njengephakeme kunezintaba,
iphakame kunamagquma;
zonke izizwe ziyakugobhozela kuyo.
3Abantu abaningi bayofika, bathi:
“Wozani senyukele entabeni kaSimakade,
endlini kaNkulunkulu kaJakobe,
ukuze asifundise izindlela zakhe,
sihambe emikhondweni yakhe,”
ngokuba umthetho uyakuphuma eZiyoni,
nezwi likaSimakade, eJerusalema.
4Uyokwehlulela phakathi kwezizwe,
axazulule imibango yezizwe eziningi.
Ziyocangcatha izinkemba zazo zibe ngamageja,
nemikhonto yazo ibe ngocelemba.
Isizwe asiyukuphakamisela esinye inkemba,
zingabe zisaviviselwa ukulwa.
5Wena ndlu kaJakobe,
woza sihambe ekukhanyeni kukaSimakade.
Usuku LukaSimakade
6Ubalahlile abantu bakho,
indlu kaJakobe,
ngokuba isigcwele imikhuba yasempumalanga;
sebengabalumbi njengamaFilisti,
bamdibimunye nabantwana babezizwe.
7Izwe lakubo ligcwele isiliva negolide,
ingcebo yabo ayinakubalwa;
izwe labo ligcwele amahhashi,
izinqola zabo zempi azinakubalwa.
8Izwe lakubo ligcwele izithombe ezibaziweyo;
bakhothamela umsebenzi wezandla zabo,
owenziwe yiminwe yabo.
9Ngakho-ke bonke abantu bathotshisiwe,
bonke behliswa isithunzi;
ungabathetheleli.
10Ngena edwaleni, ucashe othulini,
ngenxa yokwesabeka kukaSimakade
nenkazimulo yobukhosi bakhe.
11Amehlo omuntu oziphakamisayo azakuthotshiswa,
nokuzidla kwabantu kufojiswe;
nguSimakade kuphela oyophakama ngalolo lusuku.
12Ngokuba uSimakade Wamabandla umise usuku
ayakumelana ngalo nabo bonke
abazidlayo, abazigqajayo nabazikhukhumezayo,
bonke bayothotshiswa;
13amelane nayo yonke imisedari eLebhanoni
ezidlayo nephakemeyo,
nayo yonke imi-okhi eBhashani,
14nazo zonke izintaba eziphakemeyo,
nawo wonke amagquma aphakemeyo,
15nayo yonke imibhoshongo ephakemeyo,
nazo zonke izingange eziqinisiweyo,
16nemikhumbi yonke eTharishishi,
nazo zonke izinto ezinxanelekayo.
17Ukuzidla kwabantu kuyothotshiswa,
nokuzikhukhumeza kwabantu kuyofojiswa;
nguSimakade kuphela oyophakanyiswa ngalolo lusuku.
18Izithombe ezibaziweyo ziyoshabalala.
19Abantu bayongena emigedeni esemadwaleni,
nasemigodini emhlabathini,
bebalekela ukwesabeka kukaSimakade
nenkazimulo yobukhosi bakhe,
lapho ephakama ukuthuthumelisa umhlaba.
20Ngalolo lusuku
abantu bayozilahla ezimvukuzaneni nasemalulwaneni,
izithombe zabo zesiliva
nezithombe zabo zegolide,
abazenzele zona ukuba bazikhonze.
21Bayongena emihumeni esemadwaleni
nasemifantwini yamawa,
bebalekela ukwesabeka kukaSimakade
nenkazimulo yobukhosi bakhe,
lapho ekhuphuka ukuthuthumelisa umhlaba.
22Bayekeni abantu abamphefumulo usemakhaleni abo,
ngokuba bayini nje nempela?
