abekho abaqotho phakathi kwabantu
1Maye kimi! ngokuba nginjengalapho kuvuthwa izithelo zasehlobo nanjengezithelo zomvini zokuvuna; akukho hlukuzo lokudla; umphefumulo wami wafisa isithelo sokuqala.
2Umuntu omuhle ubhubhile emhlabeni, abekho oqotho phakathi kwabantu; bonke bafuna igazi; bazingela, kube yilowo nalowo umfowabo ngenetha.
3Ukuze benze okubi ngezandla zombili, kucela isikhulu, nomahluleli acele umvuzo; futhi umuntu omkhulu, ukhuluma isifiso sakhe esesabekayo; ngakho bayayivala.
4Abahle kunabo bonke banjengokhakhasi, abaqotho babukhali kunothango lwameva; luyeza usuku lwemilindo yakho nokuhanjelwa kwakho; manje bayoba ukudideka.
5Ningathembi umngane, ningathembi umholi; mgcinele olala esifubeni sakho iminyango yomlomo wakho.
6Ngoba indodana idelela uyise, indodakazi ivukela unina, umalokazana kuninazala; izitha zomuntu ngamadoda endlu yakhe.
7Ngakho ngiyakumbheka uJehova; ngiyakulindela uNkulunkulu wokusindiswa kwami; uNkulunkulu wami uyakungizwa.
8Ungathokozi ngami, sitha sami; uma ngiwa, ngiyakuvuka; uma ngihlezi ebumnyameni, uJehova uyakuba ngukukhanya kimi.
9Ngiyakuthwala ukufutheka kukaJehova, ngokuba ngonile kuye, aze angiphendulele indaba yami, anginike ubulungisa; Uyongikhiphela ekukhanyeni, futhi ngiyobona ukulunga kwakhe.
10Khona isitha sami siyakubona, simbozwe amahloni esasithi kimi: ‘Uphi uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho? amehlo ami ayakumbheka; manje liyakunyathelwa phansi njengodaka lwezitaladi.
11Ngosuku okufanele kwakhiwe ngalo izingange zakho, ngalolo suku isinqumo siyoba kude.
12Ngalolo suku uyakuza kini evela e-Asiriya nasemizini ebiyelweyo, kusukela ezinqabeni kuze kufike emfuleni, kusukela elwandle kuze kube selwandle, kusukela entabeni kuze kufike entabeni.
13Kodwa ilizwe lizakuba yinkangala ngenxa yabakhileyo kulo, ngenxa yesithelo sezenzo zabo.
14Yalusa abantu bakho ngentonga yakho, umhlambi wefa lakho ohlala wodwa ehlathini phakathi kweKarmeli; mabadle eBashani nakwaGileyadi njengasezinsukwini zasendulo.
15Njengokwezinsuku zokuphuma kwenu ezweni laseGibithe, ngiyakumbonisa izimangaliso.
16Izizwe ziyakubona lokhu, zibe namahloni ngawo wonke amandla azo; bayakubeka isandla sabo emlonyeni wabo, izindlebe zabo ziyakuba yizithulu.
17Bayakukhotha uthuli njengenyoka, baphume emigodini yabo njengezimpethu emhlabeni; bayakumesaba uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu, bakwesabe.
18Ngubani onguNkulunkulu onjengawe, othethelela ububi, adlule isiphambeko sensali yefa lakhe? Akayigodli intukuthelo yakhe kuze kube phakade, ngokuba ujabulela umusa.
19Uzabuya aphenduke, abe lesihawu kithi; Uzathobisa ububi bethu; futhi uyophonsa zonke izono zabo ekujuleni kolwandle.
20Uzafakazela iqiniso kuJakobe lakuAbrahama umusa owathembisa okhokho bethu ngesifungo kusukela ezinsukwini.
