Hagi keagama erino vu vahe Ra Anumzamo'a mago ne' hunenteno, amanage hunka ama mopafima nemaniza vahera ome zamasamige'za, Maka vahe'mo'za retrotra nehu'za, sondia nagazmia zamazeri tru hute'za Idomu vahera hara ome huzmanteho huno hunte'ne.
Umbono Ka-Obhadaya. Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi nge-Edomi: Sesizwe ilizwi elivela kuThixo: Kuthunywe isithunywa ezizweni ukuba sithi, “Phakamani, asihambeni silwe laye impi”:
2 Ra Anumzamo'a Idomu vahekura amanage huno hu'ne. Ama mopafima nemaniza vahe amu'nompintira tamagrira tamazeri anteramisuge'za, vahe'mo'za tamagefenkami atregahaze.
“Khangela, ngizakwenza ube mncinyane phakathi kwezizwe; uzakweyiswa kakhulu.
3 Tamagrama tamavufga rama nehaza zamo reramavatga hu'ne. Na'ankure tamagra havemoke higeno, mesga hu'nea agonaramimpi nemanita amanage huta tamagra nentahize, Mago vahe'mo'a amaretira eme tazeri fenkami otregahie huta nehaze.
Ukuzigqaja kwenhliziyo yakho sekukukhohlisile, wena ohlala ezingoxweni zamadwala wakhe umuzi wakho eziqongweni, wena ozitshela uthi, ‘Ngubani ongangiwisela phansi enhlabathini na?’
4 Hagi tamagra tumpamo onagamu hampompi hareno vano hiaza nehutma, ofuramima me'nea amu'nompi nona negize. Hianagi anantetira tamazeri fenkami atregahue hu'na Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na nehue.
Lanxa uqonga njengengqungqulu wakhe isidleke sakho phakathi kwezinkanyezi, ngizakwethula khonale,” kutsho uThixo.
5 Hagi kumazufa vahe'mo'zama kenage'ma musufama eme e'neriza mago'a zana netraze. Hagi waini hozafinti'ma grepi rgama taginaku'ma aza vahe'mo'za maka tagi vaganorazanki mago'a netraze.
“Nxa amasela efike kuwe, nxa abaphangi ebusuku, Awu, yeka ubukhulu bomonakalo okulindeleyo, kabayikuntshontsha kuphela lokho okwanele abakufunayo na? Nxa abavuni bamavini befike kuwe, kabangeke batshiye amalutshwana na?
6 Hianagi Iso (Idom) nagamotma tamagri feno zantamina maka eme agu'zaneru'za, marerisa feno zantamima fra'ma ki'nazana hake'za eri'za vugahaze.
Kodwa yeka ukuphangwa okuzakwenziwa u-Esawu, inotho yakhe efihliweyo izathunjwa!
7 Tamagritegama eme ante'za tamazama hu'za ha'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za, rukrahe hu'za ha' huneramante'za mopatamifintira ha'reramante'za tamahenati atregahaze. Tamagranema fru huta manisanune hu'zama kema huhagerafi'naza vahe'mo'za havige hute'za tamagrira tamazeri haviza hugahaze. Tamagrama antahima nezamiza ronetamimo'za, tamagrira tamazerinaku krifu anaginte gahazanagi tamagra anazana keta antahita osugahaze.
Bonke abamanyane lawe bazakuxotshela emngceleni; abangane bakho bazakukhohlisa bakunqobe; labo abadla ukudla kwakho bazakuthiya ngomjibila, kodwa wena kawuyikuwubona.
8 Hagi ana knafina magore hu'na knare antahi'zane vahera Idomu mopafina zamatre suge'za omanigahaze. Ana nehu'na Idomu mopafima me'nea agonaramimpima ama' antahi'zane vahetamima nemaniza vahera maka zamazeri haviza hugahue.
Ngalolosuku,” kutsho uThixo, “kangiyikuwabhubhisa yini amadoda ahlakaniphileyo ase-Edomi, amadoda aqedisisayo ezintabeni zako-Esawu na?
9 Temani kumate harfa sondia vahe'mo'za tusi koro hugahaze. Ana nehanage'za Idomu mopafima me'nea agona ramimpima nemaniza vahera zamahe hana hugahaze.
Amabutho akho, wena Themani, azathuthumela, njalo bonke abasezintabeni zako-Esawu bazacakazelwa phansi ekubulaweni kwabanengi.
10 Na'ankure Jekopu naga nofira tamagri tamafuhe'za mani'nazanagi, tamagrama zamazeri havizama hu'naza agafare, tamagaze zamo refite neramante'na, Nagra tamagrira tamazeri haviza hanugeta tamagaze zampi manivava huta vugahaze.
Ngenxa yodlakela kumfowenu uJakhobe, uzakwembeswa lihlazo; uzachithwa nini lanini.
11 Hagi Juda naga'mokizmi ha' vahe'mo'zama e'za, Jerusalemi kuma keginamofo kafaramima tapage hu'za zago fenozmima e'neri'za, Jerusalemi kuma'ma refko hu'za erinaku'ma satu zokago'ma neragazegeta tamagranena ha' vahe tro huta oti'neta zamaza osu'naze.
Ngosuku owema ngalo khatshana mhla izihambi zithumba inotho yakhe labezizweni bengena emasangweni akhe bephosa inkatho ngeJerusalema, wawunjengomunye wabo.
12 Tamagri tamafuhe'za Juda nagama kna zampima mani'nazageta anazankura antahi muse nehuta kiza zokago ke huzmante'naze. Ana nehutma Juda naga'ma eme zamazeri havizama nehazageta, osuga'za huta musena nehuta, hazenkema eme zami'za zamazeri havizama nehazage'za tusi'a knazampima mani nazageta, tamagra osuga'za huta tamimiza runafage nehuta rantamagi eri'naze.
Akumelanga weyise umfowenu ngosuku lokuhlupheka kwakhe, loba uthokoze ngabantu bakoJuda ngosuku lokubhujiswa kwabo, loba uklamase kangaka ngosuku lokuhlupheka kwabo.
13 Ana knazamo'ma Nagri vahe'ma zamazeri havizama hige'zama mani'nazageta, rankuma zamifi ufreta feno zamia aguza ruta eri'naze. Hazenke zamo'ma zamazeri havizantfama hige'zama mani'nazageta, kiza zokago ke hunezmanteta osugaza huta, tusi'a knazampima mani'nazageta feno zamia aguzaruta eri'naze.
Akumelanga ungene ngamasango abantu bami ngosuku lomonakalo wabo, loba ubeyise osizini lwabo ngosuku lomonakalo wabo, loba uthumbe inotho yabo ngosuku lomonakalo wabo.
14 Tamagra kantu hanare oti'neta Juda naga'ma koro'ma fre'za vaza nagara zamahe nefrita, ozamahe zamatrage'zama mani'naza nagara tusi knafi mani'nazanagi zamazerita ha' vahe zamazampi ante'naze.
Akumelanga ume emahlukanandlela ukuba ubulale ababalekayo babo, loba unikele abaphephileyo babo ngosuku lokuhlupheka kwabo.
15 Ama mopafima kokankokama mani'naza vahe'ma Ra Anumzamo'ma refko hune zamanteno, zamagrama hu'naza avu'ava zante'ma mizama zamitere hania knamo'a hago erava'o nehie. Tamagra vahe'ma huzmante'naza kna avu'ava zana tamagri huramantegahaze. Hu'neankita ana avu'ava zamofo knazama'a tamagra'a erigahaze.
Usuku lukaThixo selusondele ezizweni zonke. Njengalokho okwenzileyo, yikho okuzakwenziwa kuwe; izenzo zakho zizaphendukela phezu kwekhanda lakho.
16 Ruotage'ma hu'nea agonanifinti'ma tima neaza huta nagri vahera zamahe'nagu, maka ama mopafima kokankokama nemaniza vahete'ene tamagrite'enena knaza atre'na tamahe fanene hanugeno tamagia omanegahie.
Njengokunatha elakwenzayo entabeni yami, ngokunjalo izizwe zonke zizanatha njalonjalo; zizanatha, zinathe kuze kube angathi kazizange zivele zibe khona.
17 Hianagi osi'a naga'ma hapinti'ma ozamahenaza naga'mo'za, Saioni Agonafi manisnageno, ete ana kumamo'a ruotage kuma megahie. Ana'ma hanige'za Israeli vahe'mo'za ete e'za mopa'zamia erisanti hare'za manigahaze.
Kodwa phezu kweNtaba iZiyoni kuzakuba lokusindiswa; kuzakuba ngcwele, lendlu kaJakhobe izazuza ilifa layo.
18 Jekopu naga'mo'za tevemo kaninkani huno teaza nehanageno, Josefe naga'mo'za tevemo hagna hagna hiankna hu'za, Idomu vahera hagege hu'nea trazankna hu'nazanki'za tevemo traza te fanane hiaza hu'za Idomu vahera ozmatre maka zamahe hana hugahaze. Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na ama nanekea huama nehue.
Indlu kaJakhobe izakuba ngumlilo lendlu kaJosefa ibe lilangabi; indlu ka-Esawu izakuba libibi, njalo bazayithungela ngomlilo ozayiqothula. Akuyikuba khona abasilayo endlini ka-Esawu.” UThixo usekhulumile.
19 Hagi Nagri vahe'ma Negevi kazigama nemaniza vahe'mo'za vu'za, Idomu agona mopama me'neana omeri'za umanigahaze. Juda mopafima me'nea agona ramimofo asoparegama nemaniza vahe'mo'za, Filistia vahe'mokizmi agupo mopa erigahaze. Ana nehu'za Efraemi naga'mokizmi hoza mopane, Sameria vahe'mokizmi mopanena ete eri nafa'a nehanage'za, Benzameni naga'mo'za Gileati mopa ome eri'za manigahaze.
Abantu abavela eNegebi bazathumba izintaba zako-Esawu, labantu abavela emawatheni ezintaba bazathumba ilizwe lamaFilistiya. Bazathumba amasimu ako-Efrayimi lawaseSamariya, loBhenjamini uzathumba iGiliyadi.
20 Hanki Israeli vahe'ma ru moparegama kina ome hu'za mani'naza vahe'ma ete mopa zamire'ma esanu'za, mopama erisna zana Fonesia vahe mopa atupareti agafa huteno, vuvava huno noti kaziga Zarefati mopare vanige'za eri'za manigahaze. Jerusalemi kumapi vahe'ma zamavare'za noti kazigama kinama ome huzmante'naza vahe'mo'za Negevi mopafima me'nea ranra kumatamimpi emanigahaze.
Lelibutho labako-Israyeli abathunjwayo abaseKhenani lizalithatha ilizwe kusiyafika eZarefathi; abathunjwa eJerusalema abaseSefaradi bazathatha amadolobho aseNegebi.
21 Hanki ha'ma hugatere'naza vahe'mo'za Saioni agonare mareri'za mani'neza, Idomu mopafima me'nea agonaramina kegava hugahaze. Ana'ma hutesageno'a Ra Anumzamo'a Agra'a kinia manino ana mopa kegava hugahie.
Abakhululi bazakhwela iNtaba iZiyoni ukuba babuse izintaba zako-Esawu. Njalo umbuso uzakuba ngokaThixo.
