1 Hanki nagra ama nanekema huana, Israeli nagatema ugotama hu'naza kva vahe'mota antahiho, e'i zana fatgo zanki havi zanki huta ko keta antahita hu'naze.
Lapho-ke mina ngathi, “Lalelani lina bakhokheli bakoJakhobe, lina babusi bendlu yako-Israyeli. Ukulunga akumelanga likwazi na,
2 Hianagi tamagra knare avu'ava zankura tamavesra nehuta, kefo avu'ava zama hu'zankuke tamave'nesie. Nagri vahe'mo'za ofri kasefa mani'nazageta zamavufaga eri tragatragu nehuta, zaferina zamiretira ame'a zamia eri hazori netraze.
lina elizonda okuhle lithande okubi; elixebula isikhumba ebantwini bami lenyama emathanjeni abo;
3 Tamagra Nagri veamokizmi zamufga neneta, maka zamavufaga hakaneta eri vaga neraze. Ana nehuta zaferina zamia rufu netagita, afu me'ama osi kavofine ran kavofinema krenaku'ma tagahu osi'osi'ma hazaza nehaze.
lina elibadla inyama abantu bami, lihlubule isikhumba sabo lichoboze lamathambo abo abe yizicucu; elibaqumaquma njengenyama yepani, lanjengenyama yembiza?”
4 Ana nehuta kna zamo'ma tamagrite'ma ne-egeta Ra Anumzamo'ma tamaza hanigura zavi krafa nehazanagi, Ra Anumzamo'a eme tamaza osugahie. Na'ankure tamagra rama'a havi avu'avaza hu'nazankino avugosa, rukarahe nehuno ontamagegahie.
Lapho-ke bazakhala kuThixo, kodwa kayikubaphendula. Ngalesosikhathi uzabafihlela ubuso bakhe ngenxa yobubi ababenzileyo.
5 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nehie. Tamagra havige kasnampa kema nehaza vahe'mota, Nagri vahera zamavareta havi kante nevaze. Ana nehutma ne'zama tamamiza vahera fruge hunezmantaze. Hianagi ne'zama ontamamiza vahera, agafa hutma koro kea ha' vahe'mo'za tamazeri haviza hugahaze huta hunezmantaze.
Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: “Okunjengabaphrofethi, abedukisa abantu bami, umuntu angabapha ukudla, bamemezela ‘ukuthula’ nxa engabaphi balungisela ukumhlasela ngempi.
6 E'ina hu'negu tamagritera hanizamo eme refitesigeta hanimpi mani'neta mago'enena ava'nagna zana onketfa hugahaze. Ana hanigetma henkama fore'ma hania zankura mago'enena huamara osugahaze. Ana kasnampa kema nehaza vahe'mota masare manigahazanagi hanimpima maniaza huta manigahaze.
Ngakho ubusuku buzakwehlela phezu kwenu, kungekho mibono, kanye lomnyama, kungekho kuhlahlula. Ilanga lizabatshonela abaphrofethi, losuku luzakuba mnyama kubo.
7 Ana'ma hanigetma henkama fore'ma hania zanku'ma havige kasnampa kema nehaza vahe'mota tusi tamagazegu nehuta kepri hugahaze. Na'ankure Anumzamo'a naneke tamirera kenona huoramigahie.
Ababonisayo bazayangeka labahlahluli babe lenhloni. Bonke bazamboza ubuso babo ngoba kungelampendulo evela kuNkulunkulu.”
8 Hianagi Ra Anumzamofo Avamumo'a nagripi emani viteno hankavea nenamie. Ana nehuno fatgo avu'ava zane fatgoma huno refkoma hu avu'avazanena naza hige'na kena antahina nehue. Ana nehuno nazeri hankanavetige'na Israeli vahe'motama keontahi avu'ava zama nehaza zanku'ene kumi tamigura, korora osu'na huama nehue.
Kodwa mina ngiphiwe amandla, loMoya kaThixo, lokulunga kanye lesibindi, ukuba ngitshele uJakhobe ukona kwakhe lo-Israyeli isono sakhe.
9 Israeli vahe'mokizmi kva vahe'mota tamagesa ante'neta ama nanekea antahiho. Fatgoma huno refko'ma hu avu'ava zankura tamavesra nehutma, fatgo avu'ava zana netretma akrahe karahe avu'avaza nehaza vahe mani'naze.
Zwanini lokhu lina bakhokheli bendlu kaJakhobe, lani babusi bendlu ka-Israyeli, eleyisa ukulunga lihlanekele konke okuqondileyo;
10 Hagi Jerusalemi kuma'ma eri agafama huta kinte'nazana, vahe'ma ahe fri avu'ava zamo'ene havi avu'ava zamo avite'nea agofetu kinte'naze.
elakha iZiyoni ngokuchitha igazi; leJerusalema ngobubi.
11 Tamagra kva vahe'mota keagama refko'ma hazana, masavema hu'za ramiza zago e'nerita, keaga refkoa nehaze. Tamagra pristi vahe'motane kasnampa vahe'motanena zagoma eritetage kasnampa nanekea nehuta vahera rempia hunezmize. Ana nehutma makamota huta Ra Anumzamo'a tagrane magoka mani'neankino hazenke zamo'a tagritera omegahie huta nehaze.
Abakhokheli bayo bahlulela ngokufunjathiswa, abaphristi bayo bafundisela inhlawulo, labaphrofethi bayo baphrofithela imali; ikanti bathembele kuThixo njalo bathi, “Kanti uThixo kakho phakathi kwethu na? Akulancithakalo engasehlela.”
12 E'ina hu'negu kva vahe'motane, pristi vahe'motane kasnampa vahe'motanema hu'naza avu'ava zamofo hazenkea Ra Anumzamo'a Jerusalemi kumamofo agofetu anteno kumara eri haviza hanigeno, fragu vaziramino kugusopamo'ma hiaza huno hihi huno marerigahie. Ana hanigeno Saioni agonafima menima Anumzamofo mono noma me'nea agonafina, zafa tanopamo hageno refitegahie.
Ngakho-ke ngenxa yenu, iZiyoni izalinywa njengensimu, iJerusalema izakuba yinqwaba yemfucuza, intaba yethempeli ibe yindunduma eyande izixukwana.
