IsiHlabelelo seziHlabelelo 2
2
Umakoti:
1Ngiyintebe yaseSharoni,
nomnduze wezigodi.
Umnyeni:
2Njengomnduze phakathi kwameva,
sinjalo isithandwa sami phakathi kwezintombi.
3Njengomapula* phakathi kwemithi yasehlathini,
unjalo othandiweyo wami phakathi kwamadodana.
Ngahlala phansi emthunzini wakhe ngokwenama okukhulu,
nesithelo sakhe sasimnandi emlonyeni wami.
4Ungingenisile endlini yewayini,
nebhanela* lakhe phezu kwami liluthando.
5 Ngiphaseni ngezigaxa zezithelo zomvini ezomileyo,
ngihlumelele ngama-apula,*
ngokuba ngiyafa uthando.
6 Isandla sakhe sokhohlo siphansi kwekhanda lami,
nesokunene siyangigona.
7 Ngiyanifungisa,
madodakazi aseJerusalema,
ngezinsephe nangezindluzelekazi zasendle
ukuba ningalunyakazisi,
ningaluvusi uthando,
lungakavumi.
Isihlabelelo sothando somakoti
8Nanto izwi lothandiweyo wami!
Bheka, uyeza eqa ezintabeni,
etshekula emagqumeni.
9Othandiweyo wami unjengensephe
noma njengesixhumu sendluzele;
bheka, umi emva kodonga lwakwethu;
uyalunguza emafasiteleni,
ubonakala ngaseheleni.
10Othandiweyo wami wakhuluma, wathi kimi:
“Vuka, sithandwa sami,
muhlekazi wami; woza sihambe,
11ngokuba bheka, ubusika budlulile;
imvula isiphelile, yamuka;
12izimbali ziyabonakala emhlabeni,
nesikhathi sokuthena imivini sesisondele,
nezwi lehobhe liyezwakala ezweni lakithi.
13Umkhiwane uthela amakhiwane awo aluhlaza,
imivini inezimbali,
ithaphuka iphunga layo;
vuka, sithandwa sami,
muhlekazi wami; woza sihambe.”
Umnyeni:
14 Juba lami elisemifantwini yamadwala
nasekusithekeni kweziwa,
mangibone ubuso bakho,
ngizwe izwi lakho,
ngokuba izwi lakho limnandi,
nobuso bakho buhle.
15Sibambeleni izimpungushe,
izimpungushe ezincane
ezichitha izivini,
ngokuba izivini zethu zinezimbali.
Umakoti:
16 Othandiweyo wami ungowami,
mina ngingowakhe;
uyalusa phakathi kweminduze.
17 Kuze kuphole ilanga,
namathunzi abaleke,
mawube njengensephe,
wena othandiweyo wami,
nanjengesixhumu sendluzele
ezintabeni eziqhekezekileyo.
