uNehemiya 2

1Ngenyanga enguNisan, ngomnyaka wamashumi amabini ka-Artashashta ukumkani, bekukho iwayini phambi kwakhe, ndayithabatha iwayini leyo, ndayinika ukumkani. Ngoku ndandingenalusizi phambi kwakhe ngaphambili. 2Wathi ukumkani kum, Kungani na ukuba ubuso bakho bube nje, ukuba bubi, ungasafi nje? ayonto ngaphandle kobuhlungu bentliziyo. Ndiye ndoyika kakhulu. 3Wathi kukumkani, Ukumkani makadle ubomi ngonaphakade; Yini na ukuba ubuso bam bungabi bubi, ulinxuwa nje umzi, indawo yokungcwaba ooyihlo, amasango awo etshiswe ngomlilo? 4Wathi ukumkani kum, Ucela ntoni na? Ndathandaza ke kuThixo wamazulu. 5Ndathi kukumkani, Ukuba ukumkani uthe wakubona kufanelekile, ukuba umkhonzi wakho lo abona kulungile kuwe, ndithumele kwaYuda, kuwo umzi wamangcwaba kabawo, ndiwakhe. 6Wathi ukumkani kum (ukumkanikazi ehleli naye), Uhambo lwakho loba lolwexesha elingakanani na? kwaye uya kubuya nini? Ngoko ke, ukumkani wavuma ukundithuma; ndamnika ixesha. 7Kananjalo ndathi kukumkani, Ukuba ukumkani uthe wathanda, mabanikwe iincwadi zam eziya kumabamba anganeno koMlambo, aze andise kwaYuda; 8nencwadi eya kuAsafu, umgcini wehlathi lokumkani, ukuba andinike imithi yokwenza imiqadi yeengcango zendlu yokumkani, neyodonga lomzi, neyendlu endiya kuyakhela indlu ndiya kuyaba. Wandinika ke ukumkani ngokwesandla sikaThixo esilungileyo esiphezu kwam. 9Ndafika kumabamba anganeno koMlambo, ndawanika iincwadi zokumkani. Waza ukumkani wathumela nam abathetheli nabamahashe. 10Xa uSanebhalati umHoron noTobhiya umkhonzi womAmoni bakuyivayo loo nto, baba buhlungu kakhulu xa kwafika enye indoda ukuze incede oonyana bakaSirayeli. 11Ndafika ke eYerusalem, ndahlala khona iintsuku zantathu. 12Ndavuka ebusuku, ndinamadoda ambalwa; Andixelelanga mntu into abeyibeke entliziyweni yam uThixo wam, ukuba ndiyenzele eYerusalem; Ndibe ndingenamaqegu, ibilelo lodwa bendikhwele kulo. 13Ndaphuma ebusuku ngesango likaPhula phambi komhadi wenamba ndaya kwisango laseMoiteli, ndabona udonga lwaseYerusalem ludilika, namasango ayo etshiswe ngomlilo. 14Ndaphuma ndaya esangweni leQula nechibi lokumkani; akwabakho ndawo yokuba lidlule iqegu endandikhwele kulo. 15Ndanyuka ebusuku ndaya entilini yomlambo, ndaza ndalugqala udonga, ndabuya ndangena ngesango lomfula, ndabuya. 16Abaphathi babengazi apho ndandiye khona, nento endayenzayo; andiwaxelanga amaYuda, nababingeleli, nezikhulu, nabathetheli, nabanye abasebenzi. 17Ndathi kubo, Niyabubona ububi esikubo, ukuba iYerusalem yinxuwa, ukuba iingcango zayo zitshiswe ngomlilo; yizani silwakhe udonga lweYerusalem, singabi saba lihlazo. 18Ndabaxelela ukulunga kum isandla soThixo wam; namazwi okumkani, awawathethayo kum. Athi: Masilinde, masakhe. Bazomeleza izandla zabo ukuwenza lo msebenzi ulungileyo. 19Kwathi kamsinya nje akuba uSanebhalati umHoron noTobhiya umkhonzi womAmoni noGeshem umArabhu bakuyivayo le nto, basuka bahlekisa ngathi baza basiphoxa besithi: “Yintoni le niyenzayo? Niya kugwilika na kukumkani? 20Ndabaphendula, ndathi kubo, uThixo wamazulu uya kusisikelela; ngoko ke, thina bakhonzi bakhe, siya kusuka sakhe; ke nina aninasabelo nalungelo nasikhumbuzo eYerusalem.
