UHezekheli 25

1 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:

Naʻe toe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

2 “Ndodana yomuntu, khangelisa ubuso bakho umelane lama-Amoni, uphrofithe okubi ngawo.

“Foha ʻoe tangata, fakahanga ho mata ki he kau ʻAmoni, pea kikite kiate kinautolu;

3 Tshono kuwo uthi, ‘Zwanini ilizwi likaThixo Wobukhosi. Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngoba lina lathi “Aha!” ngendlu yami engcwele lapho yayingcolisiwe langelizwe lako-Israyeli lapho lalichithiwe kanye langabantu bakoJuda lapho babethunjiwe,

Pea ke pehē ki he kau ʻAmoni, Fanongo mai ki he folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; koeʻuhi naʻa ke fakamaʻitoʻa mai ki hoku fale tapu ʻi hono fakalieliaʻi; pea ki he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi hono fakalala; pea ki he fale ʻo Siuta ʻi hono ʻave ʻakinautolu ke fakapōpulaʻi;

4 ngakho ngizalinikela ebantwini baseMpumalanga njengenotho yabo. Bazakwakha izihonqo zabo bamise amathente abo phakathi kwenu; bazakudla izithelo zenu banathe lochago lwenu.

Vakai, ko ia ia te u tukuange ai koe ki he kakai hahake ke nau maʻu koe, pea te nau fokotuʻu honau nofoʻanga fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻiate koe; mo langa honau ngaahi fale ʻiate koe; te ne kai hoʻo fua, pea te nau inu hoʻo huʻahuhu.

5 Ngizakwenza iRabha ibe lidlelo lamakamela le-Amoni ibe yindawo yokuphumulela izimvu. Lapho-ke lizakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo.

Pea te u ngaohi ʻa Lepaa ko e fale kāmeli, pea ko ʻAmoni ko e nofoʻanga ʻoe fanga sipi; pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au.

6 Ngoba nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngoba liqakeze izandla zenu lagida langezinyawo zenu, lithokoza ngabo bonke ububi benhliziyo yenu ngelizwe lako-Israyeli,

He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; koeʻuhi kuo ke pasi ho nima, mo malaki ʻaki ho vaʻe, pea ke fiefia ʻi loto, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo fehiʻa lahi ki he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli;

7 ngakho ngizakwelula isandla sami ngimelane lani, ngilinikele ezizweni. Ngizaliqeda du phakathi kwezizwe, ngibuye ngilisuse emazweni enu. Ngizaliqothula, njalo lizakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo.’”

Vakai, ko ia ia te u mafao atu ai hoku nima kiate koe, pea te u tuku koe ke veteki ʻe he kakai hiteni; pea te u motuhi ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai, pea te u pule ke ke ʻosiʻosi mei he ngaahi fonua: Te u fakaʻauha koe; pea te ke ʻilo ko Sihova au.”

8 “Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: ‘Ngenxa yokuthi iMowabi kanye leSeyiri athi, “Khangelani, indlu kaJuda isinjengezinye izizwe zonke,”

ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: “Koeʻuhi ʻoku pehē ʻe Moape, pea mo Seia, Vakai, ʻoku tatau ʻae fale ʻo Siuta mo e hiteni kotoa pē;

9 ngakho-ke ngizakwambula uhlangothi lweMowabi, kusukela emadolobheni asemingceleni yeBhethi-Jeshimothi, leBhali-Meyoni kanye leKhiriyathayimi, udumo lwelizwe.

Ko ia, vakai, Te u fakaava ʻae feituʻu ʻo Moape mei hono ngaahi kolo, ʻae kolo ʻoku ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo hono fonua, ʻaia ko e ongoongolelei ʻoe fonua, ʻa Pete-Sesimote mo Pealimeoni, mo Kiliatemi,

10 Ngizanikela iMowabi ndawonye lama-Amoni ebantwini baseMpumalanga njengenotho, ukuze ama-Amoni angakhunjulwa phakathi kwezizwe;

Ki he kakai mei he potu hahake ke nau maʻu ia mo e kau ʻAmoni, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa toe manatuʻi ʻae kau ʻAmoni ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga.

11 njalo ngizaletha isijeziso eMowabi. Bazakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.’”

Pea te u fai ʻae tautea ki Moape pea te nau ʻilo ko Sihova au.”

12 “Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: ‘Ngoba i-Edomi yaphindisela endlini kaJuda yasisiba lecala elikhulu ngokwenza njalo,

ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “Ko e meʻa kuo fai ʻe ʻItomi ki he fale ʻo Siuta ʻi heʻene tautea ia, pea kuo ne fai hala ʻaupito, mo fakafāsifasi ia kiate kinautolu;

13 ngakho nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngizakwelula isandla sami ngimelane le-Edomi ngibulale abantu bayo kanye lezifuyo. Ngizayichitha, njalo kusukela eThemani kusiya eDedani, bazabulawa ngenkemba.

Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Te u mafao atu foki ʻeau ʻa hoku nima ki ʻItomi, pea te u fakaʻosi mei ai ʻae tangata pea mo e manu; pea te u ngaohi ia ke lala ʻo fai mei Temani; pea ʻe hinga ʻi he heletā ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻo Temani.

14 Ngizaphindisela e-Edomi ngesandla sabantu bami u-Israyeli, njalo i-Edomi bazayiphatha mayelana lentukuthelo yami kanye lolaka lwami; bazayazi impindiselo yami, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.’”

Pea te u ʻai ke hilifaki ʻa hoku houhau ki ʻItomi ʻi he nima ʻo hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli; pea te nau fai ki ʻItomi ʻo hangē ko hoku houhau, pea fakatatau mo ʻeku tuputāmaki; pea te nau ʻilo ʻa hoku houhau,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.

15 “Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: ‘Ngoba amaFilistiya enza impindiselo njalo aphindisela ngolunya ezinhliziyweni zawo, njalo ngenzondo yasendulo afuna ukuchitha uJuda,

ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “Koeʻuhi kuo fai fakafasifasi ʻae kau Filisitia, ʻonau fai ʻae tautea mo e loto fehiʻa, ke fakaʻauha ia ʻi he fehiʻa ʻe ʻikai ngata;

16 ngakho nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Sekuseduze ukuba ngelule ingalo yami ngimelane lamaFilistiya, njalo ngizaqothula amaKherethi ngichithe lalabo abaseleyo ngasolwandle.

Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai, te u mafao atu ʻeau hoku nima ki he kakai Filisitia, pea teu motuhi ʻae kakai Keliti, mo fakaʻauha ʻa hono toe ʻoku ʻi he matātahi.

17 Ngizakwenza impindiselo enkulu kubo njalo ngibajezise ekuthukutheleni kwami. Ngakho bazakwazi ukuthi nginguThixo, lapho sengiphindisela kubo.’”

Pea te u fai ʻae totongi lahi kiate kinautolu mo e valoki kakaha; pea te nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova, ʻo kau ka tuku atu hoku houhau kiate kinautolu.”
