U-Amose 9

Umbono Wesihlanu: INkosi USimakade Imi E-Althare

1Ngabona iNkosi imi ngase-althare, yathi:

“Shaya izihloko zezinsika,

ukuze kuzamazame umnyango phansi,

uziphihlize phezu kwamakhanda abo bonke.

Abayakusala kubo ngiyakubabulala ngenkemba.

Obalekayo kubo akayukuphunyuka

nophunyukayo kubo akayukusinda.

2Noma bangagubha endaweni yabafileyo,

isandla sami siyakubakhipha khona lapho,

noma bangakhuphukela ezulwini,

ngiyakubehlisa khona lapho.

3Noma bangacasha esiqongweni seKharmeli,

ngiyakubathungatha, ngibabambe.

Noma bangazifihla ekujuleni kolwandle

ngingababoni ngawami amehlo,

kodwa nakhona lapho

ngiyakujuba inyoka ibalume.

4Noma bangathunjwa yizitha zabo,

nakhona lapho ngiyakujuba inkemba

ukuba ibabhuqabhuqe,

iso lami liyakuthi njo kubo,

kube kubi, kungabi kuhle.”

5INkosi uSimakade Wamabandla

nguye othinta umhlaba, uncibilike,

balile bonke abahlala kuyo;

uyakukhukhumala wonke njengomfula,

ubuye ubohle njengomfula eGibhithe;

6owakhe isigodlo sakhe

esinamakamelo aphezulu ezulwini,

ukwendlaleka kwaso kusekelwe emhlabeni,

obiza amanzi olwandle,

awathululele phezu komhlaba,

nguSimakade igama lakhe.

7“Anifani yini kimi bantu bakaKhushe,

nina bantu bakwa-Israyeli na?” kusho uSimakade.

“Angimkhuphulanga yini u-Israyeli eGibhithe,

namaFilisti eKhafithori,

nama-Aramu eKhiri na?

8Bhekani-ke, amehlo eNkosi uSimakade

awubhekile umbuso owonayo;

ngiyakuwuqenda nya ebusweni bomhlaba,

nakuba ngingeke ngiyishabalalise

ngokupheleleyo indlu kaJakobe,” kusho uSimakade.

9“Ngokuba bheka, ngiyakukhipha umyalo,

nginyakazise indlu yakwa-Israyeli

phakwathi kwezizwe zonke,

njengokunyakaziswa kwesihlungo kuhlungwa,

kodwa kungabi bikho okusanhlamvu

okuwela emhlabathini.

10Zonke izoni eziphakathi kwabantu bami

ziyakufa ngenkemba,

ezithi: ‘Inhlekelele ayiyukusondela kithi,

ayiyukusehlela thina,

futhi ngeke isikhathaze.’ ”

11“Ngalolo lusuku

ngiyakuvusa idokodo eliwile likaDavide,

ngivale imifantu yalo,

ngivuselele kabusha okuwileyo,

ngilakhe kabusha njengasezinsukwini zasemandulo,

12ukuze badle ifa lensali yakwa-Edomi,

nakho konke okwezizwe

ezazibizwa ngeGama lami,”

kusho uSimakade ozakukwenza lokhu.

13“Bhekani-ke, ziyeza izinsuku,

lapho olimayo eyakuficwa ovunayo,

onyathela amagilebhisi aficwe

ngohlwanyela imbewu;

izintaba ziyakuconsa iwayini elimnandi,

ligeleze emagqumeni wonke.

14Ngiyakuguqula ukuthunjwa kwabantu bami u-Israyeli,

bakhe kabusha imizi ebiyincithakalo,

bahlale kuyo;

bayakutshala izivini,

baphuze iwayini lazo,

balime izivande,

badle izithelo zazo.

15Ngiyakubatshala ezweni labo,

bangabe besasishulwa futhi

kwelabo izwe engibanike lona,”

kusho uSimakade uNkulunkulu wakho.
