UDanyeli 12
1 “Ngalesosikhathi uMikhayeli, umbusi omkhulu olinda abantu bakini, uzavela. Kuzakuba khona isikhathi sokuhlukumezeka okungazange kube khona kulokhu kwadabuka izizwe kuze kube yiso. Kodwa kulesosikhathi abantu bakini bonke labo abalamabizo azafunyanwa elotshiwe encwadini bazahlengwa.
Pea ʻi he kuonga ko ia ʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Maikeli, ʻae ʻEiki lahi, ʻaia ʻoku tokoni ki he fānau ʻa hoʻo kakai: pea ʻe hoko ha kuonga ʻoe mamahi, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito hano tatau talu mo e ʻi ai ha puleʻanga, ʻo aʻu ki he puleʻanga ko ia: pea ʻe fakahaofi hoʻo kakai ʻi he kuonga ko ia, ʻaia kotoa pē ʻe ʻiloʻi kuo tohi ʻi he tohi.
2 Izixuku lezixuku zabaleleyo othulini lomhlaba bazavuka; abanye baye ekuphileni okungapheliyo, abanye baye ehlazweni lokunengeka okungapheliyo.
Pea ʻē ʻā ʻae tokolahi ʻokinautolu ʻoku mohe ʻi he efu ʻo māmani, ko e niʻihi ki he moʻui taʻengata, mo e niʻihi ki he mā mo e manuki taʻengata.
3 Labo abahlakaniphileyo bazakhazimula njengokubenyezela kwamazulu, lalabo abaholela abanengi ekulungeni, bazakhazimula njengezinkanyezi okwanini lanini.
Pea ko kinautolu ʻoku poto ʻe ngingila ʻo hangē ko e ulo ʻoe langi; pea ko kinautolu ʻoku fakatafokiʻi ʻae tokolahi ki he māʻoniʻoni, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi fetuʻu, ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata.
4 Kodwa wena Danyeli, vala ungcine amazwi omgoqwancwadi kuze kube yisikhathi sokucina. Abanengi bazakuya lapha lale ukwandisa ulwazi.”
Ka ko koe, ʻe Taniela, ke ke tāpuni ʻae ngaahi lea mo fakamaʻu ʻae tohi, ʻo aʻu ki he kuonga ʻoe ngataʻanga: ʻe feʻaluʻaki fano pe ʻae tokolahi, pea ʻe tupu ʻae poto.
5 Kwathi mina, Danyeli, ngakhangela, ngabona khonapho phambi kwami kumi abanye ababili, omunye ngakuleli ikhumbi lomfula lomunye ngakuleliyana ikhumbi.
Pea ko au Taniela ne u sio, pea vakai, naʻe tutuʻu mai ʻae toko ua kehe, ko e tokotaha ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe vaitafe, pea mo e tokotaha ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe vaitafe.
6 Omunye wabo wathi emuntwini owayegqoke ilineni owayengaphezulu kwamanzi omfula, “Kuzakuba yisikhathi esingakanani zingakenzakali izinto lezi eziyisimanga na?”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tokotaha ki he tangata naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae tupenu lelei, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fukahi vai ʻoe vaitafe, “ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa pea hoko ʻae ngataʻanga ʻoe ngaahi meʻa fakaofo ni?”
7 Indoda eyayigqoke ilineni, eyayiphezulu kwamanzi omfula yaphakamisela isandla sayo sokunene lesandla sayo sokhohlo ezulwini, ngayizwa ifunga ngaye ohleziyo laphakade, isithi, “Kuzakuba ngokwesikhathi, izikhathi lengxenye yesikhathi. Lapho amandla abantu abangcwele eseze afohlozwa, zonke lezi izinto zizapheleliswa.”
Pea ne u fanongo ki he tangata naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae tupenu lelei, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fukahi vai ʻoe vaitafe, ʻi heʻene hiki hake hono nima toʻomataʻu, mo hono toʻohema ki he langi, pea ne fuakava ʻiate ia ʻoku moʻui ʻo taʻengata, “ʻE fai ia ʻi ha kuonga mo e ngaahi kuonga, mo e vaeuamālieʻanga; pea ʻi heʻene lavaʻi ke movete ʻae mālohi ʻoe kakai māʻoniʻoni, ʻe toki fakaʻosi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē.”
8 Ngezwa, kodwa kangizwisisanga. Yikho ngabuza ngathi, “Nkosi yami, pho sizaba yini isiphetho sakho konke lokhu na?”
Pea ne u fanongo, ka naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo: pea ne u pehē, “ʻE hoku ʻEiki, ko e hā hono ngataʻanga ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ni?”
9 Waphendula wathi, “Zihambele, Danyeli, ngoba amazwi asevaliwe ananyekwa kuze kube sekucineni kwesikhathi.
Pea naʻa ne pehē mai, “Ke ke ʻalu koe Taniela: he kuo tāpuni mo fakamaʻu ʻae ngaahi lea, ʻo aʻu ki he kuonga ʻoe ngataʻanga.
10 Abanengi bazahlanjululwa, bangabi latshatha njalo bacolisiswe, kodwa abagangileyo bazaqhubeka begangile. Kakho kwababi ozazwisisa, kodwa labo abahlakaniphileyo bazazwisisa.”
ʻE ʻi ai ʻae tokolahi ʻe fakamaʻa, mo fakahinehina, mo ʻahiʻahiʻi; ka e fai hala ʻae kau angahala: pea ʻe ʻikai ha niʻihi ʻi he kau angahala ʻe ʻilo; ka e ʻilo ʻe he kau poto.
11 Kusukela ngesikhathi kusaliswa umhlatshelo wansuku zonke, sekumiswe amanyala abanga incithakalo, kuzakuba lensuku eziyinkulungwane lamakhulu amabili lamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye.
Pea mei he kuonga ko ia, ʻe ʻave ai ʻae feilaulau ʻaho, mo e fokotuʻu ʻae fakalielia, ʻaia ʻoku fakaʻulia, ʻe ai ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻe taha afe ma uangeau mo e hivangofulu.
12 Ubusisiwe lowo okulindelayo njalo akufice ukucina kwensuku eziyinkulungwane lamakhulu amathathu alamatshumi amathathu lanhlanu.
ʻOku monūʻia ia ʻoku tatali, pea hoko ki he ngaahi ʻaho ʻe taha afe ma tolungeau, mā tolungofulu ma nima.
13 “Kodwa wena, zihambele nje kuze kube sekucineni. Uzaphumula, besekusithi ekucineni kwensuku uzavuka ukuba wamukele elakho ilifa olabelweyo.”
Ka ke ʻalu pe koe ʻi ho hala kaeʻoua ke hoko ʻae ngataʻanga: he te ke mālōlō pea te ke tuʻu ʻi ho lakanga ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe ngaahi ʻaho.”
