UNARHUME 2
2
1“Abasabaleleko uzababona
lokha nababuyako wena Juda.
Yenyukelani esithaleni, nigade indlela!
Zilungiseleleni, niziqinise!”
2Ngambala uSomnini uzakubuya ngedumo lakaJakopo,
iye, ngedumo laka-Israyeli.
Ngambala abarhayili bazabarhayila
begodu bazakutjhabalalisa abavikeli babo.
3Ngelanga elibekwe nguSomnini,
iinhlangu zeentsitsirimba zayo zibomvu;
iingorho zakhona zivunule okutlerebede.
Iinsimbi zeenkarana zepi ziyamenyezela,
abakhweli beenjomani baya ngapha nangapha.
4Batjhayela iinkarana inga mahlanya eendleleni,
zehla zenyuka nommango woke.
Zifana neenhlothi ezivuthako;
zigijima zitsekeze njengombani.
5Amabutho kaSomnini akhethekileko ziingorho,
akhamba ahlula endlelenawo.
Agijimela emthangaleni wedorobho;
alungisa umgqala wawo ukugiriza umthangala.
6Amasango wangemlanjeni avulwe petle,
isigodlo siyathuthumela ngevalo.
7Indlovukazi isiwa ekuthunjweni ngekoloyana.
Amakhobokakazi wayo ayathunjwa;
athwala imikhono ehloko,
alile irhabiya njengamazuba.
8INiniva injengedamu elivulelweko:
Amanzi wakhona ayagobhoza.
“Valani! Valani!”,
kodwana amanzi akavaleki.
9Thumbani isiliva!
Thumbani igolide!
Umgodla uvulekile,
umnotho uze ngonina lapha!
10INiniva idlelezelwe, yahlangulwa;
yasala ilirubhi!
Iinhliziyo zadana,
amadolo ayathuthumela,
imizimba yoke iyahlengezela;
boke ubuso buyaphaphatheka.
Kukhalelwa ingoma ngekosi ye-Asiriya
11Gadesi liphi-ke idzaba leengwenyama,
lapha kondlelwa khona imindlwana yeengwenyama,
lapha ingwenyama eduna nesikazi zikhambakhamba khona,
lapha iingwenyama zizibusa khona na?
12Iphi ingwenyama ebulele ngokwaneleko,
ukondla imindlwanayo;
ekghamela ukondla ingwenyama esikazi,
ezalisa isikhundla sayo ngeenyamazana
nedzaba layo ngeendumbu na?
13USomnini uMninimandlawoke uthi:
“Ngijamelene nawe kosi.
Ngizakutjhisa iinkarana zakho,
isabula izakurhayila iingwenyamana zakho.
Ngizakutjhabalalisa koke okuhlangule kabanye.
Amezwi weenthunywa zakho angeze asazwakala.”
