Malachi 2
1 and now to(wards) you [the] commandment [the] this [the] priest
Khathesi-ke, bapristi, umlayo lo ngowenu.
2 if not to hear: hear and if not to set: consider upon heart to/for to give: give glory to/for name my to say LORD Hosts and to send: depart in/on/with you [obj] [the] curse and to curse [obj] blessing your and also to curse her for nothing you to set: consider upon heart
Uba lingalaleli, njalo uba lingakubeki enhliziyweni ukunika ibizo lami udumo, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, ngizathumela isiqalekiso phakathi kwenu, ngiqalekise izibusiso zenu. Yebo, sengiziqalekisile, ngoba kalikubeki enhliziyweni.
3 look! I to rebuke to/for you [obj] [the] seed: children and to scatter refuse upon face your refuse feast your and to lift: bear [obj] you to(wards) him
Khangelani, ngizakona inzalo yenu, ngithele umswane ebusweni benu, umswane wamadili enu, lisuswe kanye lawo.
4 and to know for to send: depart to(wards) you [obj] [the] commandment [the] this to/for to be covenant my with Levi to say LORD Hosts
Njalo lizakwazi ukuthi ngithumele lumlayo kini, ukuze isivumelwano sami sibe loLevi, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
5 covenant my to be with him [the] life and [the] peace and to give: give them to/for him fear and to fear: revere me and from face: because name my to to be dismayed he/she/it
Isivumelwano sami besilaye siyikuphila lokuthula; ngamnika khona kube yikwesaba angesaba ngakho; wathuthumela phambi kwebizo lami.
6 instruction truth: true to be in/on/with lip his and injustice not to find in/on/with lips his in/on/with peace and in/on/with plain to go: walk with me and many to return: repent from iniquity: crime
Umlayo weqiniso wawusemlonyeni wakhe, lesiphambeko kasitholakalanga endebeni zakhe. Wahamba lami ngokuthula langobuqotho, waphendula abanengi ebubini.
7 for lips priest to keep: guard knowledge and instruction to seek from lip his for messenger LORD Hosts he/she/it
Ngoba indebe zompristi ziyagcina ulwazi, njalo bayadinga umlayo emlonyeni wakhe, ngoba uyisithunywa seNkosi yamabandla.
8 and you(m. p.) to turn aside: turn aside from [the] way: conduct to stumble many in/on/with instruction to ruin covenant [the] Levi to say LORD Hosts
Kodwa lina liphambukile endleleni, lakhubekisa abanengi emlayweni; lona isivumelwano sikaLevi, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
9 and also I to give: make [obj] you to despise and low to/for all [the] people like/as lip: according which nothing you to keep: obey [obj] way: conduct my and to lift: kindness face: kindness in/on/with instruction
Ngakho lami ngilenzile laba ngabadelelekayo labehliselwe phansi phambi kwabantu bonke, njengokuba lingagcinanga izindlela zami, kodwa lamukele ubuso emlayweni.

11 to act treacherously Judah and abomination to make in/on/with Israel and in/on/with Jerusalem for to profane/begin: profane Judah holiness LORD which to love: lover and rule: to marry daughter god foreign
UJuda wenze ngenkohliso, njalo kwenziwe amanyala koIsrayeli leJerusalema; ngoba uJuda ungcolisile ubungcwele bukaJehova abuthandayo, uthethe indodakazi kankulunkulu wezizweni.
12 to cut: eliminate LORD to/for man which to make: do her to rouse and to answer from tent Jacob and to approach: bring offering to/for LORD Hosts

13 and this second to make: do to cover tears [obj] altar LORD weeping and groaning from nothing still to turn to(wards) [the] offering and to/for to take: recieve acceptance from hand: power your
