UJOBHO 37
37
1Ngalokho ihliziywami iyathuthumela,
yeqayeqa endawenayo ngebanga lomdumakhe.
2Lalela ukundonda kwelizwi lakhe
nokundindiza okuvela emlonyenakhe,
3uthukulula umdumo usabalale nephasi loke.
Umbanakhe uphazima emaphethelweni wephasi,
4ngemva kwalapho kurarambe umdumo,
iye, adume ngelizwi lobukhosi bakhe.
Akagodli ukunyazima kwakhe
ukuze azwakalise ilizwi lakhe.
5Iphimbo lakaZimu lithuthumba ngeendlela ezibabazekako,
wenza izinto ezikulu ngaphezu kokwazi kwethu:
6Uyala iliqhwa athi, ‘Yehlela ephasini!’,
umwuluko wezulu,
iye, umwuluko ukhombisa amandlakhe.
7Ujamisa boke abantu ekusebenzeni,
ukuze bazi imisebenzakhe.
8Iinyamazana zibhaca eenkhundleni zazo,
zihlale emiphandwinazo.
9Isiwuruwuru sivela ngesewula
nemimoya ihlakaza amakhaza.
10Ukuphefumula kwakaZimu kuveza iliqhwa,
ngaphezu kwamanzi kulale irhwaba.
11Uzalisa amafu ngomswakama,
amafu wezulu asabalalise imibanakhe.
12Umbani ugijima mazombe,
ngokuhlahlwa nguZimu,
kobana wenze koke ayala ngakho,
wehlele phasi ehlabathini yoke indawo.
13Ngamafu anzima uhlunguphaza iphasi,
namkha ngesisa sakhe, abusise ngawo.
14“Lalela lapha wena Jobho,
akhe ujame, uyelele iimangaliso zakaZimu.
15Uyazi bonyana uZimu ulawula njani imibani,
akhanyise njani amafu wakhe na?
16Ingabe uyalemuka bona imimoya
iphephula njani amafu na?
Kuziimangaliso zopheleleko ngelwazi
17lokha izambatho zakho nazifuthumalako,
iphasi nalithulileko kunganamsikinyeko
ngebanga lomtjhiso otjhwabisako.
18Ungamsiza uZimu ekwendlaleni isibhakabhaka,
sona esiqine inga siboniboni sekoporo na?
19Sitjela-ke bonyana sithini kuZimu.
Ngebanga lokobana sisebumnyameni,
angeze sakghona ukwendlala indabethu.
20Udlumbana bona
kufuze atjelwe engikutjhoko,
namkha kukhona ozakuthi indaba le ayibikwe na?
21“Ehlobo umbani awusabonwa
uphazima emafini,
ngombana ummoya sewudlulile
wembula isibhakabhaka,
22watjhiya umkayi wangetlhagwini
uphazima njengegolide.
UZimu wembethwe bukhosi obesabekako,
23nje-ke asikwazi ukufikelela koSabekako.
Omkhulu ngamandla nangokulunga
akadingi ukuphendula.
24Ngalokho, inga abantu bangamesaba,
boke abahlakaniphileko bamhloniphe!”
