Hezekeli 14
1Kwasekufika kimi abanye bamalunga akwaIsrayeli, bahlala phambi kwami.
2Izwi likaJehova lafika kimi, lathi:
3Ndodana yomuntu, la madoda abeke izithombe zawo ezinhliziyweni zawo, abeka phambi kwawo isikhubekiso sobubi bawo; kufanele ngikhulume nabo nhlobo?
4Ngakho khuluma kubo uthi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova; Yilowo nalowo muntu wendlu yakwa-Israyeli ophakamisa izithombe zakhe enhliziyweni yakhe, abeke isikhubekiso sobubi bakhe phambi kobuso bakhe, eze kumprofethi; Mina Jehova ngiyakumphendula ozayo njengobuningi bezithombe zakhe;
5ukuze ngifake indlu ka-Israyeli enhliziyweni yayo, ngokuba bonke behlukanisiwe nami ngezithombe zabo.
6Ngalokho yisho kuyo indlu yakwa-Israyeli, uthi: ‘Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Phendukani, nifulathele izithombe zenu; bususe ubuso bakho kuzo zonke izinengiso zakho.
7Ngoba yilowo lalowo wendlu kaIsrayeli loba owemzini ogogobeleyo koIsrayeli, ozazahlukanisa lami, abeke izithombe zakhe enhliziyweni yakhe, abeke isikhubekiso sobubi bakhe phambi kobuso bakhe, eze kumprofethi ukubuza kuye. Mayelana nami; Mina Jehova ngizamphendula ngokwami;
8Ngiyakubhekisa ubuso bami bumelane nalowo muntu, ngimenze isibonakaliso nesaga, ngimnqume phakathi kwabantu bami; nizokwazi ukuthi nginguJehova.
9Futhi uma umprofethi emkhohlisa lapho ekhuluma okuthile, mina Jehova ngimkhohlisile lowo mprofethi, futhi ngizokwelulela isandla sami kuye ngimqede phakathi kwabantu bami u-Israyeli.
10Bayothwala isijeziso sobubi babo; isijeziso somprofethi siyoba njengesijeziso salowo omfunayo;
11ukuze indlu yakwa-Israyeli ingabe isaduka isuka kimi, ingabe isangcoliswa ngeziphambeko zayo zonke; kodwa ukuze babe ngabantu bami, lami ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
12Izwi likaJehova lafika kimi, lathi:
13Ndodana yomuntu, uma izwe lisona kimi ngokweqa nokuphambuka, ngiyakwelula isandla sami phezu kwalo, ngiphule udondolo lwesinkwa salo, ngithumele phezu kwalo indlala, nginqume kulo abantu nezilwane;
14Ngisho noma la madoda amathathu, uNowa, uDaniyeli noJobe, ebekhona kulo, ayeyosindisa umphefumulo wawo kuphela ngokulunga kwawo, isho iNkosi uJehova.
15Uma ngithuma ukuduma ezweni, balichithe, libe yihlane, kungabikho muntu odabula izilwane;
16Noma lawa madoda amathathu ebekhona kulo, kuphila kwami, isho iNkosi uJehova, awayikusindisa amadodana namadodakazi; yibo kuphela abayakusindiswa, kepha izwe liyakuba yihlane.
17Noma ngiletha inkemba kulelo zwe ngithi: ‘Inkemba, dabula izwe;’ ukuze ngiqothule kuwo umuntu nesilwane.
18Noma ngabe lawa madoda amathathu ebekhona kulo, kuphila kwami, isho iNkosi uJehova, awayikusindisa amadodana noma amadodakazi, kepha wona wodwa ayakusindiswa wona.
19Noma ngithuma isifo kulelo zwe, ngithulule ukufutheka kwami phezu kwalo ngegazi, ukuba ngiqede kulo abantu nezilwane;
20Noma uNowa noDaniyeli noJobe babephakathi kwalo, kuphila kwami, isho iNkosi uJehova, abayikusindisa indodana noma indodakazi; kodwa bazahlenga imiphefumulo yabo ngokulunga kwabo.
21Ngokuba isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Kakhulu kangakanani uma ngithumela phezu kweJerusalema izahlulelo zami ezine ezimbi, inkemba, nendlala, nokuduma, nesifo, ukuqothula kulo abantu nezilwane na?
22Kodwa bhekani, kuyosala kuyo insali eyozalwa, amadodana namadodakazi; bheka, bayakuphumela kini, nibone indlela yabo nezenzo zabo; niyoduduzwa ngobubi engilwehlisele phezu kweJerusalema, nangakho konke engikwehlisele phezu kwalo.
23Futhi bayoniduduza lapho nibona izindlela zabo nezenzo zabo; niyakwazi ukuthi angikwenzanga ngaphandle kwesizathu konke engikwenzile kulo, isho iNkosi uJehova.
