Isiprofetho ngeKushe
1Wo kuwena lizwe lokuhashaza kwamaphiko
eliphesheya komfula waseKushe,
2elithuma izigijimi ngolwandle
nangemikhumbi yemihlanga phezu kwamanzi.
Hambani nina zithunywa ezinejubane,
niye esizweni esidephileyo nesikhazimulayo,
kubantu abesabekayo lapha nasekudeni,
isizwe esinamandla amakhulu nesinyathelayo,
esilizwe laso lidatshulwe yimifula.
3Nonke nina enakhileyo ezweni
nani nonke enihlezi emhlabeni
bhekani, lapho ibhanela* liphakanyiswa ezintabeni;
zwanini, lapho icilongo libethwa.
4Ngokuba uJehova ushilo kimi kanje, wathi:
“Ngiyakubheka ngithule, ngisendaweni yami,
njengokubalela okukhazimula ekukhanyeni kwelanga,
njengefu lamazolo ekufudumaleni ngesikhathi sokuvuna.”
5Ngokuba kungakafiki ukuvuna,
nokukhahlela sekuphelile,
nembali isiphenduka isithelo esivuthiweyo,
uyakunquma amahlumela ngawocelemba,
awasike amagatsha, awasuse.
6Ayakushiywa ndawonye abe ngawamanqe asezintabeni
nawezilwane zasemhlabeni;
amanqe ayakuhlala ehlobo phezu kwawo,
nazo zonke izilwane zomhlaba
ziyakuhlala ebusika phezu kwawo.
7 Ngaleso sikhathi kuyakulethwa isipho kuJehova Sebawoti
yibo abantu abadephileyo nabakhazimulayo,
sivela kubantu abesabekayo lapha nasekudeni,
isizwe esinamandla amakhulu nesinyathelayo,
esilizwe laso lidatshulwe yimifula,
endaweni yegama likaJehova Sebawoti,
intaba yaseSiyoni.
