iMizekeliso ngoSirayeli
1Kwaphinda kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi: 2Iyintoni na kuni le mizekeliso ngomhla wamaSirayeli, nisithi, Ooyise badla iidiliya ezibolileyo, aba buthelezi amazinyo oonyana? 3Ndihleli nje, utsho uYehova, anisayi kuba sazekelisa ngale mizekeliso ezweni lakwaSirayeli. 4Yabonani, yonke imiphefumlo yeyam; unjengomphefumlo kayise, unjalo umphefumlo wonyana wam; umphefumlo owonayo umele ufe. 5Kodwa ukuba umntu uthe walungisa, wenza ubulungisa nobulungisa, 6Wayengadli ezintabeni, engawaphakamiseli amehlo akhe emifanekisweni eqingqiweyo yendlu kaSirayeli, engamhlambeli umfazi wommelwane, engasondeli nakumfazi wenyanga; 7akacudisa mntu, wasibuyisela isibambiso sakhe konetyala, akaphanga mntu, wasinika olambileyo isonka sakhe, wamambesa oze ngengubo; 8Obengasebenzisi nzala, akathabathanga nkongozelo, osigcineyo isandla sakhe ebubini, ugweba ngenyaniso phakathi komntu nomntu; 9wahamba ngemimiselo yam, wawagcina amasiko am, ukuba enze ngenyaniso; ulilungisa, inene, uya kuphila; itsho iNkosi uYehova. 10Ngokungathi wazala unyana wesela, umbulali, wenza ngolo hlobo komnye wabo; 11Ke ukuba akenzanga nanye kwezo zinto, wodlela ezintabeni, umhlambele umfazi wommelwane wakhe; 12Wacudisa usizana nolihlwempu, wathinjwa, akasibuyisa isibambiso, wawaphakamisela kwizigodo amehlo akhe, wenza amasikizi; 13Wayesebenzisa inzala, ethabatha inzala; uyakuphila ke? akayi kuphila; bayawenza onke amasikizi; inene, uya kufa; igazi lakhe malibe phezu kwakhe. 14Yabonani ke, ethe wazala unyana othe wazibona zonke izono zikayise azenzileyo, walinda, ukuba angenzi ngolo hlobo; 15ongadliyo ezintabeni, angawaphakamiseli amehlo akhe kwizigodo zendlu kaSirayeli, akamenza inqambi umfazi wommelwane wakhe; 16Nokuba uthe wacudisa abantu, angasilulameli isibambiso, angaxhakamfuli; isonka sakhe asinike olambileyo, amgubungele oze ngengubo; 17owabamba isandla sendoda elihlwempu, yona engathabathanga nzala, nanzala, neyayigcina imali yam, wahamba ngemali yam; akayi kufa ngobugwenxa bukayise; uya kuphila. 18Ke yena uyise, ngenxa yokuba wamcinezela ngenkohlakalo waza waphanga umntakwabo waza wenza okungafanelekanga phakathi kwabantu bakowabo, yabona, naye uya kufa ngenxa yobungendawo bakhe. 19Ke nina nithi, Ngani na? Unyana akabuthwali na ubugwenxa bukayise? Ukuba inkwenkwe ithe yenza ngokwesiko nangobulungisa, yayigcina yonke imithetho yam, ukuba iyayenza, iphila. 20Umphefumlo owenza isono kuya kufa wona. Unyana akayi kuthwala ubugwenxa bukayise, noyise akayi kubuthwala ubugwenxa bonyana; 21Kodwa ukuba umntu ongendawo uthe waguquka ezonweni zakhe zonke azenzileyo waza wayigcina yonke imiyalelo yam emisiweyo waza wenza ubulungisa nobulungisa, ngokuqinisekileyo uya kuphila, akayi kufa. 22Bonke ubugwenxa bakhe abenzileyo abuyi kubizwa kuye; uya kuphila ngobulungisa bakhe abenzileyo. 23Kumnandi na kum ukufa kongendawo? itsho iNkosi uYehova, akukuko nokuba abuye ezindleleni zakhe, aphile? 24Kodwa ukuba ilungisa liyaguquka ebulungiseni balo, lenze ngokungekho sikweni, lenze ngokwamasikizi awenzileyo ongendawo, ngaba liya kuphila na? Bonke ubulungisa bakhe abenzileyo abunakubizwa; 25Ke nina nithi, Indlela kaYehova ayilungelelene. Yivani, ndlu kaSirayeli; Indlela yam ayilunganga? Ngaba iindlela zenu azilunganga? 26Xa ilungisa liguquka ebulungiseni balo, lenza ngobugqwetha, lize life ngenxa yoko; ngenxa yobubi bakhe abenzileyo, uya kufa. 27Kanjalo, ukuba uthe waba mbi, wabangela ububi abenzileyo, wenza okulungileyo nobulungisa, uya kuwugcina umphefumlo wakhe uphila. 28Ekubeni ebuyile ezikreqweni zakhe zonke azenzileyo waza wabuya, ngokuqinisekileyo uya kuphila, akayi kufa. 29Yathi ke indlu kaSirayeli, Indlela kaYehova ayilungelelene. Iindlela zam azilungelelene na, ndlu kaSirayeli? Ngaba iindlela zenu azilunganga? 30Ngoko ke ndiya kunigweba, nina bendlu kaSirayeli, ngamnye ngendlela yakhe, itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova. Guqukani, niguquke kuzo zonke izikreqo zenu; ngoko abuyi kunifikela ububi. 31Lahla zonke izikreqo zakho okreqe ngazo kuwe; nizenzele intliziyo entsha nomoya omtsha; Yini na ukuba nife, ndlu kaSirayeli? 32Kuba andikholiswanga kukufa komntu ofayo, itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova. Ngoko ke, guquka, uphile.
