< Amosi 9 >
1 Nĩndonire Mwathani arũgamĩte kĩgongona-inĩ, nake akiuga atĩrĩ: “Gũtha ciongo cia itugĩ, nĩgeetha hingĩro cia nyũmba cienyenye. Hingĩro icio nĩigwĩre mĩtwe ya andũ othe, na arĩa magatigara nĩngamooraga na rũhiũ rwa njora. Gũtirĩ o na ũmwe ũkoora; gũtirĩ ũkaahonoka.
Ngabona uThixo emi phansi kwe-alithari, wasesithi: “Tshaya izihloko zensika ukuze imibundu inyikinyeke. Ziwisele phansi phezu kwamakhanda abantu bonke; labo abazasala ngizababulala ngenkemba. Kakho lamunye ozaphunyuka, kakho ozabaleka.
2 O na mangĩkenja thĩ makinye kwa ngoma, guoko gwakwa no gũkaamaruta kuo. O na mangĩkaahaica igũrũ, nĩngamaharũrũkia kuuma kuo. (Sheol )
Loba besimba baze bafike ekudepheni kwengcwaba, isandla sami sizabathatha khonapho. Loba bekhwela baye phezulu emazulwini, bekhonapho ngizabehlisela phansi. (Sheol )
3 O na mangĩkehitha igũrũ rĩa kĩrĩma gĩa Karimeli, nĩngamaguĩma kuo ndĩmanyiite. O na mangĩkehitha mathiĩ rungu rwa iria-rĩ, o nakuo nĩngatha nyoka ĩmarũme.
Loba becatsha engqongweni yeKhameli, khonapho ngizabadinga ngibabambe. Loba bengicatshela enzikini yolwandle, khonapho ngizalaya inyoka ukuba ibalume.
4 O na mangĩgaatwarwo ithaamĩrio nĩ thũ ciao, nĩngathana mooragĩrwo kuo na rũhiũ rwa njora. Ngamakũũrĩra maitho makwa, maitho ma ũũru, no ti ma wega.”
Loba izitha zabo zingabasa ekuthunjweni, khonale ngizalaya inkemba ukuba ibabulale. Ngizagxilisa amehlo ami kubo ngenxa yobubi hatshi ngobuhle.”
5 Mwathani, o we Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, ũrĩa ũhutagia thĩ, ĩgatweka, nao arĩa othe matũũraga kuo magacakaya, bũrũri wothe nĩkũiyũra ũiyũrĩte ta Rũũĩ rwa Nili, ningĩ ũkahũcũka ta rũũĩ rwa Misiri,
INkosi, uThixo uSomandla, yena othinta umhlaba uncibilike, kuthi bonke abahlezi kuwo bakhale, ilizwe lonke liyaphakama njengoNayili liphinde litshone phansi njengomfula waseGibhithe,
6 we ũrĩa wakaga gĩikaro gĩake kĩa ũthamaki kĩraihu kũu igũrũ, na akahaanda gĩtina gĩakĩo gũkũ thĩ, ũrĩa wĩtaga maaĩ ma iria rĩrĩa inene, na akamaitũrũra gũkũ thĩ-rĩ, Jehova nĩrĩo rĩĩtwa rĩake.
yena owakha indlu yakhe yobukhosi ephakemeyo emazulwini njalo ubeka isisekelo sakhe phezu komhlaba, ebiza amanzi olwandle awathele phezu kobuso bomhlaba, uThixo yilo ibizo lakhe.
7 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Githĩ inyuĩ andũ a Isiraeli mũtihaana andũ a Kushi harĩ niĩ? Githĩ ti niĩ ndaarutire na ngĩambatia andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri, na Afilisti kuuma Kafitori, na Asuriata ngĩmaruta Kiri?
“Lina ma-Israyeli, kimi kalinjengamaKhushi na?” kutsho uThixo. “U-Israyeli kangimkhuphanga eGibhithe, lamaFilistiya eKhafithori, kanye lama-Aramu eKhiri na?
8 “Ti-itherũ, maitho ma Mwathani Jehova nĩmacũthagĩrĩria makona ũthamaki ũrĩa wĩhagia. Nĩngawananga, ũthire gũkũ thĩ, no ndikaananga nyũmba ya Jakubu biũ,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
Impela amehlo kaThixo Wobukhosi aphezu kombuso olesono. Ngizawukhucula ebusweni bomhlaba ikanti indlu kaJakhobe angiyikuyichitha ngokupheleleyo,” kutsho uThixo.
9 “Nĩgũkorwo nĩngathana, na nĩngainainia nyũmba ya Isiraeli gatagatĩ-inĩ ka ndũrĩrĩ ciothe, o ta ũrĩa ngano ĩinainagio ĩrĩ gĩcungi-inĩ, na gũkaaga kahĩndĩ kangĩgũa thĩ.
“Ngoba ngizakupha umlayo, njalo ngizahlungula indlu ka-Israyeli phakathi kwezizwe zonke njengokuhlungulwa kwamabele ekhomaneni njalo akukho hlamvu oluzawela phansi.
10 Andũ arĩa othe ehia thĩinĩ wa andũ akwa makooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, o arĩa othe moigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Tũtingĩkorererwo nĩ mũtino, kana ũtũtũnge.’
Izoni zonke phakathi kwabantu bami zizakufa ngenkemba, bonke labo abathi, ‘Umonakalo kawuyikusifica loba usihlangabeze.’”
11 “Mũthenya ũcio nĩngacookereria hema ya Daudi ĩrĩa ĩgwĩte, thondeke kũrĩa yunĩkangĩte, na njookererie kũrĩa yanangĩtwo, na ndĩmĩake o ta ũrĩa yatariĩ mbere,
“Ngalolosuku ngizavusa ithente likaDavida elawayo. Ngizavala izikhala zalo, ngivuselele okwadilikayo kwalo, ngilakhe njengelaliyikho khona,
12 nĩgeetha makegwatĩra matigari ma Edomu, na ndũrĩrĩ ciothe iria ciĩtanagio na rĩĩtwa rĩakwa,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga, ũrĩa ũgeeka maũndũ macio.
ukuze bathathe insalela ye-Edomi kanye lezizwe zonke ezizabizwa ngebizo lami,” kutsho uThixo, ozazenza lezizinto.
13 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Matukũ nĩmarooka, “rĩrĩa mũgethi agaakorererwo nĩ mũciimbi, nake mũhaandi akorererwo nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũhihaga thabibũ. Ndibei ya mũhihano ĩgaatataga kuuma irĩma-inĩ, na ĩthererage kuuma tũrĩma-inĩ tuothe.
UThixo uthi, “Zinsuku ziyeza, lapho ovunayo ezaficwa ngolimayo, lohlanyelayo aficwe ngokhama amavini. Iwayini elitsha lizagobhoza ezintabeni, njalo ligeleze emaqaqeni wonke.
14 Nĩngacookia andũ akwa a Isiraeli arĩa maatahĩtwo, nao macookererie matũũra manene marĩa maanangĩtwo, matũũre kuo; ningĩ marĩme mĩgũnda ya mĩthabibũ na manyuuage ndibei yayo. Magathondeka mĩgũnda ya irio na marĩĩage maciaro mayo.
Ngizababuyisela abantu bami bako-Israyeli abathunjwayo. Bazawakha kutsha amadolobho adilikayo bahlale kuwo. Bazahlanyela izivini banathe iwayini lazo; bazakwenza izivande badle izithelo zazo.
15 Niĩ ngaahaanda Isiraeli bũrũri wao ene, na matigacooka kũrutwo rĩngĩ bũrũri ũcio niĩ ndĩmaheete,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova Ngai wanyu ekuuga.
Ngizagxumeka u-Israyeli elizweni lakhe angaphindi asitshunwe futhi elizweni engimnike lona,” kutsho uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
