14 Hagi e'inahu kefo avu'ava'ene ne'mofo mofavremo'ma nefa'ma hu'nea kumi avu'avazama negeno, avaririno ana avu'avara osu mani koro huno mani'neno,
Khangela-ke, uzala indodana ebona zonke izono zikayise azenzileyo, ibona, ingenzi njengalezizinto,
15 havi anumzante'ma Kresramanama vuntesaza ne'zama onege, Israeli vahe'mofo kaza osu anumzante'ma mono huontege, ru vahe'mofo a'nene savri nosuno,

ingacindezeli muntu, ingagodli isibambiso, ingaphangi impango, isipha olambileyo isinkwa sayo, yembese oze ngesembatho,
17 zamunte omane vahera zamazeri haviza nosuno, zagoma nofi'ma hu vahera agofetu huno zago agia ahenteno e'norino, kasegeni'ane tra ke'ni'anema kegava huno amage'ma antesuno'a, agra nefa'ma hu'nea kumi avu'avazamofo nona hunora ofrigahianki, tamage huno amne manigahie.
isuse isandla sayo kongumyanga, ingemukeli inzuzo lokwengezelelweyo, isenza izahlulelo zami, ihambe ngezimiso zami, yona kayiyikufela isiphambeko sikayise, izaphila isibili.
18 Hagi nefa'a frigahie. Na'ankure agra havige huno vahe'mofo zantamina eri savri nehuno, musufa neseno, vahe'amofona knare avu'avara huozmante'neankino, ana kefo avu'va'zama hu'nea zantera frigahie.
Uyise, ngoba ecindezele ngocindezelo, waphanga impango kumfowabo, wenza okungalunganga phakathi kwabantu bakibo, khangela-ke, uzafela ebubini bakhe.
19 Hagi mofavre'amo'ma knare huno fatgo avu'ava'ma nehuno, kasege'nine tra ke'ni'anema kegava huno amage'ma nenteno, ofrino amnema manisigeta, amanage huta nantahigegahaze, nahigeno nefa'ma hu'nea kumi'mofo mizama'a nemofo'a e'orie? huta hugahaze.
Kanti lithi: Kungani indodana ingathwali isiphambeko sikayise? Nxa indodana yenzile isahlulelo lokulunga, igcinile zonke izimiso zami, yazenza, izaphila isibili.
20 Hagi kumi'ma hania vahe'moke frigahie. Hagi mofavremo'a nefa'ma hu'nenia kumimofo nona'a knazana e'orisigeno, mago ne'mo'a mofavre'amo'ma hu'nesia kumimofo nona'a knazana e'origahie. Hagi fatgo avu'ava'ma nehania vahera agri fatgo avu'avate mizana nemino, kefo avu'ava'ma hania vahera, agri'a kefo avu'ava zante azeri haviza hugahie.
Umphefumulo owonayo, wona uzakufa. Indodana kayiyikuthwala isiphambeko sikayise, loyise kayikuthwala isiphambeko sendodana. Ukulunga kolungileyo kuzakuba phezu kwakhe, lenkohlakalo yokhohlakeleyo izakuba phezu kwakhe.
21 Hianagi kefo avu'ava zama nehania vahe'mo'ma kefo avu'ava zama netreno agu'a rukrahe huno tra keni'a amage nenteno, knare avu'ava'ene fatgo avu'ava'enema hanuno'a, ofrigahianki amne manigahie.
Kodwa uba omubi ephenduka ezonweni zakhe zonke azenzileyo, agcine zonke izimiso zami, enze isahlulelo lokulunga, uzaphila isibili, kayikufa.
22 Hagi magore hu'na mago kumi'agura nagesa ontahigosue. Na'ankure fatgo avu'avaza hugahiankino ofri amne manigahie.
Iziphambeko zakhe zonke azenzileyo kaziyikukhunjulelwa kuye; ekulungeni kwakhe akwenzileyo, uzaphila.
23 Miko'zama Kegava Hu'nea Anumzamo'a huno, kefo avu'ava'ma nehia vahe'ma nefrigeta, tamagesama antahi'zana Nagrikura musena nehie huta nehazo? I'o. Nagra musena nosue. Hagi kefo avu'ava zama'a atreno amnema mani'zanku nave'nesie.
Ngiyathokoza lokuthokoza ngokufa kokhohlakeleyo yini? itsho iNkosi uJehova; kakusikuthi aphenduke ezindleleni zakhe, aphile yini?
24 Hianagi fatgo avu'ama nehania ne'mo'ma atreno'ma kefo avu'ava ome nehuno, kasrino hi'mnage avu'avazama ome haniana, agra manigahio? I'o. Agra omanigahianki frisigeno maka fatgo avu'ava'ma hu'nea zamo'a amnezankna hanige'na, Nagra ana zankura nagesa ontahigahue. Na'ankure kefo avu'ava huno kumi hu'neankino ana kumimofo nona'a omanigahianki frigahie.
Kodwa nxa olungileyo ephenduka ekulungeni kwakhe, esenza isiphambeko, enze njengokwezinengiso zonke azenzayo omubi, uzaphila yini? Ukulunga kwakhe konke akwenzileyo kakuyikukhunjulwa; esiphambekweni sakhe aphambeke ngaso, lesonweni sakhe asonileyo, uzafela kikho.
25 Hianagi amanage huta hugahaze, Ra Anumzamo'ma hia avu'ava zamo'a fatgo osie huta hugahaze. Hagi Israeli vahe'mota antahiho, Nagri navu'navamo fatgoa hunefi, tamagri tamavu tamava'mo fatgoa hu'ne?
Kanti lithi: Indlela yeNkosi kayilingani. Zwanini-ke, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli; indlela yami kayilingani yini? Kayisizo yini izindlela zenu ezingalinganiyo?
26 Hagi Fatgo avu'ava'ene vahe'mo'ma ana fatgo avu'ava'ama atreno kumi'ma haniana, agra kumi hugahiankino frigahie. Na'ankure fatgo osu avu'azama hania zanku huno agra frigahie.
Lapho olungileyo ephenduka ekulungeni kwakhe, enze iziphambeko, afele kuzo, eziphambekweni azenzileyo uzakufa.
27 Hagi kefo avu'ava'ma nehania vahe'mo'ma ana kefo avu'ava'ma atreno agu'ama rukrahe huno'ma fatgo avu'ava zama haniana, agra'a agu'vazigahie.
Futhi nxa omubi ephenduka ebubini bakhe abenzileyo, enze isahlulelo lokulunga, yena uzagcina umphefumulo wakhe uphila.
28 Na'ankure agra maka kefo avu'ava'ma hu'nea zana keno antahino nehuno, ana avu'ava zana atreno agu'a rukrahe hu'neankino, tamage huno agra ofrino manigahie.
Ngoba ebona, ephenduka kuzo zonke iziphambeko zakhe azenzileyo, uzaphila isibili, kayikufa.
29 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mota huta, Ra Anumzamofo avu'avamo'a fatgo osu'ne huta nehaze. Hagi tamage huno Nagri navu'navamo'a fatgoa osu'nefi? I'o. Tamagri tamavu tamava'mo fatgoa osu'ne.
Kanti indlu kaIsrayeli ithi: Indlela yeNkosi kayilingani. Wena ndlu kaIsrayeli, indlela zami kazilingani yini? Kayisizo yini indlela zenu ezingalinganiyo?
30 E'ina hu'negu Israeli vahera, magoke magoke'mota tamagrama hu'nesaza avu'ava zante ante'na Nagra refko huramantegahue huno Mikozama Kegava Hu'nea Anumzamo'a hu'ne. Hagi aru tamagri kumi avu'ava zamo tamazeri haviza hanigi kefo avu'ava zana atreta tamagu'a rukrahe hiho.
Ngakho ngizalahlulela, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli, ngulowo lalowo njengokwendlela zakhe, itsho iNkosi uJehova. Phendukani, libuye lisuke eziphambekweni zenu zonke; ukuze ububi bungabi yisikhubekiso kini.
31 Hagi kefo avu'avazama nehaza zana netreta tamagu'a rukrahe huta kasefa tamagu tamagesa enerita kasefa avamu eriho. Hagi Israeli vahe'mota nahanigeta tamagra frigahaze?
Lahlani lisuse kini zonke iziphambeko zenu eliphambeke ngazo, lizenzele inhliziyo entsha lomoya omutsha; ngoba lizafelani, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli?
32 Na'ankure vahe'ma nefrizage'na Nagra musena nosuanki, tamagu'a rukrahe huta ofri amne maniho hu'na Miko'zama Kegava Hu'noa Anumzamo'na nehue.
Ngoba kangithokozi ngokufa kofayo, itsho iNkosi uJehova; ngakho phendukani liphile.
