Ukukhonza izithombe nendlu ka-Israyeli
1Zwanini izwi uJehova alikhuluma kini nina ndlu ka-Israyeli!
2Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Ningafundi indlela yabezizwe, ningesabi izibonakaliso zezulu; ngoba abezizwe bayabesaba.
3Ngokuba imikhuba yabantu iyize, ngokuba umuntu ugawula umuthi ehlathini, umsebenzi wezandla zesisebenzi ngembazo.
4Balihlobisa ngesiliva nangegolide; bayibethela ngezipikili nangezando, ukuze inganyakazi.
5Baqotho njengesundu, kodwa abakhulumi; kumele zithwalwe ngoba azikwazi ukuhamba. Ningabesabi; ngokuba abakwazi ukwenza okubi, akukho kubo ukwenza okuhle.
6Ngoba akakho ofana nawe, Jehova; Wena umkhulu, futhi iGama lakho likhulu ngamandla.
7Ngubani ongekwesabe, Nkosi yezizwe? ngoba ingeyakho, ngoba phakathi kwabo bonke abahlakaniphileyo bezizwe lemibuso yabo yonke kakho onjengawe.
8Kepha bayiziphukuphuku neziwula; imfuyo iyimfundiso eyize.
9Isiliva elinezingcwephe lilethwa livela eTharishishi, negolide lase-Ufazi, umsebenzi wengcweti nowezandla zomkhandi; izingubo zabo ziluhlaza nokububende; konke kungumsebenzi wamadoda anobuqili.
10Kepha uJehova unguNkulunkulu weqiniso, unguNkulunkulu ophilayo, neNkosi yaphakade; ngentukuthelo yakhe umhlaba uyazamazama, nezizwe aziyikuthwala ukufutheka kwakhe.
11Ngakho kumelwe uthi kubo: Onkulunkulu abangalenzanga izulu nomhlaba, bayoshabalala emhlabeni nangaphansi kwaleli zulu.
12Wenza umhlaba ngamandla akhe, walimisa izwe ngokuhlakanipha kwakhe, waleneka izulu ngecebo lakhe.
13Lapho ezwakalisa izwi lakhe, kukhona inqwaba yamanzi ezulwini, futhi ubangela ukuba inkungu ikhuphuke emikhawulweni yomhlaba; wenza umbani nemvula, akhiphe umoya engcebweni yakhe.
14Wonke umuntu unesibindi ekwazini kwakhe; bonke abakhandi bajabhiswa ngesithombe esibaziweyo, ngokuba izithombe zabo ezibunjiweyo zingamanga, nomoya awukho kuzo.
15Ziyize nomsebenzi wenkohliso; ngesikhathi sokuhanjelwa kwazo ziyakubhubha.
16Oyisabelo sikaJakobe akafani nazo, ngokuba unguMbumbi wazo zonke izinto; u-Israyeli uyinduku yefa lakhe; nguJehova Sebawoti igama lakhe.
17Qoqa impahla yakho elizweni, wena owakhileyo ezinqabeni!
18Ngokuba usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Bheka, ngiyakuxosha abakhileyo ezweni ngalesi sikhathi, ngibacindezele ukuba bakuthole kunjalo.
19Maye kimi ngenxa yobuhlungu bami! isilonda sami sibuhlungu, kepha ngathi: Impela buhlungu, ngimelwe ukubuthwala.
20Itabernakele lami lichithiwe, nezintambo zami zonke zephuliwe; abantwana bami baphumile kimi, futhi abasekho; akasekho ongagxumeka itende lami, amise amakhethini ami.
21Ngokuba abelusi baba yiziwula, abamfunanga uJehova; ngalokho abayikuphumelela, nezimvu zabo zonke ziyakuhlakazwa.
22Bhekani, kuyeza umsindo wesithelo, nesiyaluyalu esikhulu esivela ezweni lasenyakatho, ukwenza imizi yakwaJuda ibe yihlane nomhume wezimpungushe.
23Ngiyazi, Jehova, ukuthi indlela yomuntu ayikuye uqobo; akukumuntu ukuba aqondise izinyathelo zakhe.
24Ngiqondise, Jehova, kepha ngokwahlulela; kungabi ngentukuthelo yakho, funa ungibhubhise.
25Thela ukufutheka kwakho phezu kwezizwe ongazaziyo, nasezizukulwaneni ezingalibizi igama lakho; ngokuba bamdlile uJakobe, bamshwabadela, bamshwabadela, benza ikhaya lakhe laba yihlane.
