Ezekiela 37
1 KAU mai la ka lima o Iehova maluna o'u, a lawe ae ia'u iwaho ma ka Uhane o Iehova, a hooku iho ia'u ilalo mawaenakonu o ka papu, ua paapu ia i na iwi.
Isandla seNkosi sasiphezu kwami, sangikhupha ngoMoya weNkosi, sangibeka phakathi kwesihotsha esasigcwele amathambo.
2 A hoohele ia'u e maalo ma ia mau mea a puni; aia hoi he nui wale o lakou ma ka papu, aia hoi, ua maloo loa lakou.
Yangidlulisa kuwo ngibhoda inhlangothi zonke; khangela-ke, ayemanengi kakhulu ebusweni besihotsha, njalo khangela, ayomile kakhulu.
3 A ninau mai la oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hiki anei i keia mau iwi ke ola? I aku la hoi au, E Iehova ka Haku, o oe no ka i ike.
Yasisithi kimi: Ndodana yomuntu, amathambo la angaphila yini? Ngasengisithi: Nkosi Jehova, nguwe owaziyo.
4 Olelo hou mai la oia ia'u, E wanaua oe i keia mau iwi, a e olelo aku ia lakou, E na iwi maloo, e hoolohe i ka olelo a Iehova.
Yasisithi kimi: Profetha phezu kwalamathambo, uthi kiwo: Lina mathambo omileyo, zwanini ilizwi leNkosi.
5 Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei i keia mau iwi; Eia hoi, e hookomo au i ke ea iloko o oukou, a e ola na oukou.
Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova kula amathambo: Khangelani, ngizakwenza umoya ungene kini, liphile.
6 A e kau iho au i na olona maluna o oukou, a lawe mai au i ka io maluna o oukou, a e uhi ia oukou i ka ili, a e hookomo ae au i ke ea iloko o oukou, a e ola oukou; a e ike no oukou owau no Iehova ka Haku.
Ngibeke imisipha phezu kwenu, ngivuselele inyama phezu kwenu, ngilembese ngesikhumba, ngifake umoya kini, liphile. Khona lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
7 A wanana aku la au e like me au i kauohaia mai ai: a i kuu wanana ana, kawewe ae la, aia hoi, he nauwe ana, a hui ae na iwi, ka iwi me kona iwi.
Ngasengiprofetha njengokulaywa kwami; kwasekusiba lomsindo ngisaprofetha, khangela-ke ukunyikinyeka, amathambo asesondelelana, ithambo kuthambo lalo.
8 A i ko'u nana ana'ku, aia hoi, pii mai no na olona a me ka io maluna o lakou, a uhi mai ka ili ia lakou maluna; aka, aole ea iloko o lakou.
Ngasengibona, khangela-ke, kwakulemisipha phezu kwawo, yavela inyama, lesikhumba sawasibekela ngaphezulu; kodwa kwakungelamoya kiwo.
9 Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, E wanana oe i ka makani, e wanana, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, a e olelo i ka makani, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, E hele mai, e ka makani, mai na makani eha mai, a e ha iho maluna o keia poe make i ka pepehiia, i ola lakou.
Yasisithi kimi: Profetha emoyeni, profetha ndodana yomuntu, uthi emoyeni: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Woza uvela emimoyeni emine, wena moya, uphefumulele kulaba ababuleweyo ukuze baphile.
10 A wanana aku la au e like me kana i kauoha mai ai ia'u, a komo mai ke ea iloko o lakou, a ola ae la lakou, a ku ae la lakou iluna ma ko lakou mau wawae, he mau koa lehulehu loa.
Ngasengiprofetha njengalokho yayingilayile; umoya wasungena kiwo, aphila, ema ngenyawo zawo, ibutho elikhulu kakhulukazi.
11 Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, o keia poe iwi, o ka ohana a pau ia a Iseraela; aia hoi, ke olelo nei lakou, Uamaloo ko kakou mau iwi, a ua lilo ko kakou mea i manaolana ai; ua oki loa ia'e nei kakou.
Yasisithi kimi: Ndodana yomuntu, la amathambo ayindlu yonke kaIsrayeli. Khangela, bathi: Amathambo ethu omile, lethemba lethu libhubhile, siqunyiwe ngokwethu.
12 Nolaila e wanana aku, a e olelo aku ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, Aia hoi, e ko'u poe kanaka, e huai ae au i ko oukou mau luakupapau, a e hoopii mai au ia oukou mai loko mai o ko oukou mau luakupapau, a e lawe ae ia oukou i ka aina o ka Iseraela.
Ngakho profetha uthi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangelani, ngizavula amangcwaba enu, ngilikhuphule emangcwabeni enu, lina bantu bami, ngilise elizweni lakoIsrayeli.
13 Alaila e ike oukou owau no Iehova, i ka wa i huai ai au i ko oukou mau luakupapau, e ko'u poe kanaka, a lawe mai hoi au ia oukou mai loko mai o ko oukou mau luakupapau;
Khona lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi, lapho ngivula amangcwaba enu, ngilikhuphule emangcwabeni enu, lina bantu bami.
14 A hookomo i kuu Uhane iloko o oukou, a e ola oukou, a e hoonoho au ia oukou ma ko oukou aina; alaila e ike oukou owau no Iehova ka i olelo a e hana aku hoi, wahi a Iehova.
Besengifaka umoya wami kini, liphile, besengilibeka elizweni lenu; khona lizakwazi ukuthi mina Nkosi ngikhulumile, ngakwenza, itsho iNkosi.
15 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi lisithi:
16 A o oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e lawe oe i ka laau nou, a e kakau iho maluna iho ona, No Iuda, a no na mamo a Iseraela kona mau hoa; alaila e lawe i kekahi laau, a e kakau iho maluna ona, No Iosepa, ka laau o ka Eperaima, a no ka ohana a pau a Iseraela kona mau hoa.
Wena-ke ndodana yomuntu, zithathele intonga eyodwa, ubhale phezu kwayo uthi: EkaJuda, leyabantwana bakaIsrayeli abangane bakhe; ubusuthatha enye intonga, ubhale phezu kwayo uthi: EkaJosefa, intonga kaEfrayimi, layo yonke indlu kaIsrayeli abangane bakhe.
17 A e hookui ia laua i kekahi i kekahi i laau hookahi; a e lilo laua i hookahi iloko o kou lima.
Ubusuzisondeza, enye kwenye kuwe, zibe yintonga eyodwa; njalo zizakuba ngeyodwa esandleni sakho.
18 Aia olelo na keiki a kanaka ia oe, e ninau ana, Aole anei oe e hoike mai ia makou i kou ma keia mau mea?
Lalapho abantwana babantu bakini bekhuluma kuwe besithi: Kawuyikusitshela yini ukuthi lezi ziyini kuwe?
19 E olelo aku oe ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Aia hoi, e lawe au i ka laau o Iosepa, ka mea iloko o ka lima o Eperaima, a me na ohana a Iseraela kona mau hoa, a e hui aku au ia lakou me ia, me ka laau hoi o Iuda, a e hoolilo au ia lakou i laau hookahi, a lilo lakou i hookahi iloko o ko'u lima.
Tshono kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngizathatha intonga kaJosefa, esesandleni sikaEfrayimi, lezizwe zakoIsrayeli abangane bakhe, ngizibeke kuyo, kuyo intonga kaJuda, ngizenze zibe yintonga eyodwa, zibe ngeyodwa esandleni sami.
20 A e waiho no na laau au e kakau ai iloko o kou lima imua o ko lakou alo.
Njalo izintonga obhale kizo zizakuba sesandleni sakho phambi kwamehlo abo.
21 A e olelo aku oe ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Aia hoi, e lawe mai au i ka poe mamo a Iseraela mai waena mai o na lahuikanaka kahi i hele aku ai lakou, a e houluulu au ia lakou ma kela aoao keia aoao, a e lawe mai ia lakou iloko o ko lakou aina.
Ubususithi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangelani, ngizathatha abantwana bakoIsrayeli phakathi kwezizwe, abaye kizo, ngibabuthe inhlangothi zonke, ngibalethe elizweni labo;
22 A e hoolilo au ia lakou i lahuikanaka hookahi ma ka aina maluna o na mauna o ka Iseraela; a no lakou a pau he alii hookahi no; aole alua lahuikanaka hou aku lakou, aole loa hoi e mokuahana hou aku i elua aupuni.
ngibenze babe yisizwe esisodwa elizweni phezu kwezintaba zakoIsrayeli; njalo inkosi eyodwa izakuba yinkosi yabo bonke; njalo kabasayikuba yizizwe ezimbili, kabasayikwehlukaniswa babe yimibuso emibili futhi.
23 Aole hoi e hoohaumia hou aku lakou ia lakou iho me ko lakou mau akuakii, aole hoi me ko lakou mau mea inainaia, aole hoi me kahi o ka lakou lawehala ana: aka, a e hoola au ia lakou mai loko mai o ko lakou mau wahi i noho ai, i hana hewa ai lakou, a e hoomaemae au ia lakou: a e lilo lakou i kanaka no'u, a owau hoi i Akua no lakou.
Kabasayikuzingcolisa ngezithombe zabo, langamanyala abo, langasiphi seziphambeko zabo; kodwa ngizabasindisa baphume kuzo zonke indawo zabo zokuhlala, abona kizo, ngibahlambulule. Ngalokho bazakuba ngabantu bami, lami ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo.
24 A e lilo ka'u kauwa o Davida i alii maluna o lakou, a no lakou a pau he kahuhipa hookahi; e hele hoi lakou ma ko'u mau kanawai, a malama hoi lakou i ka'u mau kauoha, a e hana hoi malaila.
Njalo inceku yami uDavida izakuba yinkosi phezu kwabo; labo bonke bazakuba lomalusi munye; futhi bazahamba kuzahlulelo zami, bagcine izimiso zami, bazenze.
25 A e noho lakou ma ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai i kuu kauwa ia Iakoba, kahi i noho ai ko oukou mau makua; a e noho lakou malaila, o lakou, a me ka lakou poe keiki, a me ka poe keiki a ka lakou poe keiki a mau loa aku; a e mau ana no ko ka'u kauwa ko Davida alii ana no lakou.
Bahlale elizweni engalinika inceku yami uJakobe, ababehlala kulo oyihlo, yebo, bazahlala kulo, bona, labantwana babo, labantwana babantwana babo, kuze kube phakade. Futhi uDavida inceku yami uzakuba yisiphathamandla sabo kuze kube phakade.
26 A e hana au i ka berita hoomalu me lakou, e lilo ia i berita mau loa me lakou; a e hoonoho au ia lakou, a e hoonui au ia lakou, a e hoonoho au i kuu wahi hoano iwaena o lakou a mau loa.
Futhi ngizakwenza isivumelwano sokuthula labo; sizakuba yisivumelwano esilaphakade labo; ngibamise, ngibandise, ngibeke indawo yami engcwele phakathi kwabo kuze kube phakade.
27 A o ko'u halelewa kekahi me lakou; a owau auanei ko lakou Akua, a o lakou hoi ko'u poe kanaka.
Ithabhanekele lami lalo lizakuba kubo, njalo ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wabo, labo bazakuba ngabantu bami.
28 A e ike hoi na lahuikanaka, owau o Iehova ka i hoomaemae i ka Iseraela, i ka mau loa ana o ko'u wahi hoano iwaenakonu o lakou.
Lezizwe zizakwazi ukuthi mina Nkosi ngenza uIsrayeli abe ngcwele, nxa indawo yami engcwele izakuba phakathi kwabo kuze kube phakade.
