Bayobeka ithemba labo kuNkulunkulu, bangakhohlwa yimisebenzi kaNkulunkulu, ukuze bagcine imiyalo yakhe. Bangabi njengawoyisemkhulu, isizukulwane esiphambeneyo nesihlubukayo, isizukulwane esingaqinisanga inhliziyo yaso, nesimoya waso wawungathembekile kuNkulunkulu. Abantu bakwa-Efrayimi, sebehlomile bephethe iminsalo, babuyela emuva ngosuku lwempi. Kabasigcinanga isivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu, benqaba ukuhamba ngomthetho wakhe. Bayikhohlwa imisebenzi yakhe nezimangaliso zakhe ayebabonise khona. Izimangaliso wazenza phambi koyisemkhulu eGibhithe, eZowani. Wehlukanisa ulwandle, wabadabulisa kulo, amanzi wawamisa anjengodonga. Emini wabahola ngefu, ubusuku bonke, ngokukhanya komlilo. Waqhekeza amadwala ehlane, wabaphuzisa benela, kungathi kuvela ekujuleni. Wenza kwagobhoza imithombo edwaleni, amanzi wawenza ageleza njengemifula. Nokho baqhubeka bona kuye, bamhlubuka Ophezukonke ehlane. Bamlinga uNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yabo ngokucela ukudla ababekufisa. Bakhuluma kabi ngoNkulunkulu, bathi: “UNkulunkulu angalendlala yini itafula ehlane na? Noma ashaya idwala kwaphuma amanzi, kwampompoza imifula; angabapha yini isinkwa noma abahlinzeke ngenyama abantu bakhe na?” Ngakho-ke lapho uSimakade ekuzwa lokho, wathukuthela, kwavutha umlilo kwaJakobe, ulaka lwakhe lwehlela ku-Israyeli, ngoba abakholwanga nguNkulunkulu, abaze bethembela ensindisweni yakhe. Nokho wayala amafu, wavula iminyango yezulu, wanisela phezu kwabo imana ukuze badle, wabapha ukudla kwasezulwini. Abantu badla isinkwa sezingelosi, wabathumelela insada yokudla. Wadedela umoya wasempumalanga ezulwini, ngamandla akhe waqhuba umoya waseningizimu. Wanisa inyama phezu kwabo njengothuli, nezinyoni ezinamaphiko zafana nesihlabathi solwandle. Lokho wakwehlisa phakathi kwenkambu yabo, naphakathi kwezindlu zabo. Badla basutha kakhulu, ngokuba Yena wabapha ababekufisa. Babengakehlukani nokufisa kwabo, besakumumethe ukudla kwabo emilonyeni, ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lwehlela phezu kwabo, wazibulala iziqhwaga, waziqumba phansi izinsizwa zakwa-Israyeli. Phezu kwakho konke lokho baqhubeka nokona, abaze bazikholwa izimangaliso zakhe. Ngakho-ke izinsuku zabo waziqeda njengomoya, neminyaka yabo, ngokwesaba. Lapho ebabulala, bamfuna, babuye bamfunisisa uNkulunkulu. Bakhumbula ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyidwala labo; uNkulunkulu Ophezukonke ungumkhululi wabo. Ngemilomo yabo babemthopha, kodwa beqamba amanga bngezilimi zabo. Inhliziyo yabo yayingabambelele kuye, bengathembekile esivumelwanei sakhe. Kepha Yena waba nobubele, wabathethelela ububi babo, akaze ababhubhisa, yebo, wazibamba kaningi olakeni lwakhe, wangayikhiphela kubo yonke intukuthelo yakhe. Wakhumbula ukuthi bangabantu nje, bangumoya owedlulayo ongenakubuya.

AmaHubo 78:1-39 Contemporary Zulu Bible 2024 (CZB24)
IMaskili lika-Asafa. Lalelani, bantu bami, umthetho wami; beka izindlebe zakho emazwini omlomo wami. Ngiyakuwuvula umlomo wami ngomfanekiso, ngikhulume amazwi amnyama asendulo; Esikuzwileyo nesikwaziyo, nabasitshela khona obaba. Ngeke sikufihlele abantwana babo, futhi esizukulwaneni esizayo siyomemezela izindumiso zikaJehova namandla akhe nezimangaliso zakhe azenzile. Ngokuba wamisa ubufakazi kuJakobe, wamisa umthetho kwa-Israyeli, awuyala obaba ukuba bawazise abantwana babo. Ukuze isizukulwane esizayo sizazi, yebo, nabantwana abazozalwa; okufanele basukume bamemezele lokhu kubantwana babo. Ukuze bathembele kuNkulunkulu futhi bangakhohlwa imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu, kodwa bagcine imiyalo yakhe. Bangabi njengoyise, isizukulwane esinenkani nesihlubukayo; isizukulwane esingalungisanga inhliziyo yaso, nomoya waso ungagxili kuNkulunkulu. Abantwana bakwa-Efrayimi, ababehlomile bephethe idandili, babuyela emuva ngosuku lwempi. Abasigcinanga isivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu, benqaba ukuhamba emthethweni wakhe; Wakhohlwa imisebenzi yakhe nezimangaliso zakhe ababonise zona. Wenza izimangaliso emehlweni awoyise ezweni laseGibithe, endaweni yaseSowani. Wahlukanisa ulwandle, wabavumela ukuba bawele; wamisa amanzi njengenqwaba. Wabahola ngefu emini, nangokukhanya komlilo ubusuku bonke. Waqhekeza amadwala ogwadule, wabaphuzisa njengotwa otwayo olukhulu. Wakhipha nemifudlana edwaleni, wenza ukuba amanzi agobhoze njengemifula. Baphinda bona kakhulu kuye ngokuklolodela oPhezukonke ehlane. Basebecela kuNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yabo ngokucela ukudla kwenkanuko yabo. Yebo, bakhuluma kabi ngoNkulunkulu; bathi: UNkulunkulu angadeka itafula ehlane na? Bheka, washaya idwala, kwaze kwagobhoza amanzi, nezifufula zaphuphuma; angakwazi futhi ukunikeza isinkwa? angalungisela abantu bakhe inyama na? Ngakho uJehova wakuzwa wathukuthela; Ngoba kabakholwanga kuNkulunkulu, kabathembanga ensindisweni yakhe; Noma wayala amafu phezulu, wavula iminyango yezulu; Wanisa imana phezu kwabo ukuba badle, wabanika okusanhlamvu kwezulu. Abantu badla isinkwa sezingelosi: wazipha ukudla. Waphephula umoya wasempumalanga esibhakabhakeni, ngamandla akhe waletha umoya waseningizimu. Wanisa inyama phezu kwabo njengothuli, nezinyoni ezinezimpaphe njengesihlabathi solwandle. Yawela phakathi kwekamu labo nxazonke zezindlu zabo. Badla, basutha, ngokuba wabapha ukufisa kwabo; Abazange bahlukane nenkanuko yabo. Kodwa inyama yabo isesemlonyeni wabo. Ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lwaba phezu kwabo, wabulala abakhulupheleyo kubo, wahlula abakhethiweyo bakwa-Israyeli. Kukho konke lokhu baqhubeka bona njalo kabakholwanga yimisebenzi yakhe yamandla. Ngakho wachitha izinsuku zabo ngeze neminyaka yabo ekuhluphekeni. Kwathi ezibulala, zamfuna; babuya, babuza kuNkulunkulu ekuseni. Bakhumbula ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyidwala labo, nokuthi uNkulunkulu oPhezukonke uMhlengi wabo. Nokho bamthopha ngemilomo yabo, baqamba amanga kuye ngolimi lwabo. Ngoba inhliziyo yabo yayingaqondile kuye, futhi babengaqini esivumelwaneni sakhe. Kodwa yena owayelesihawu wabathethelela ububi babo, kababhubhisanga; Wakhumbula ukuthi babeyinyama; umoya odlulayo ungabuyi.
