< UHabakhukhi 2 >
1 Ngizakuma esilindweni sami ngime phezu komthangala; ngizakhangela ukuba ngibone ukuthi uzakuthini kimi, lokuthi yimpendulo bani engizayitsho ngale insolo.
Te u tuʻu ʻi heʻeku leʻo, pea u nofo ʻi hoku fale leʻo, pea te u leʻo ke ʻilo pe ko e hā te ne folofola mai kiate au, pea ko e hā te u tali ʻaki ʻoka valokiʻi au.
2 UThixo waphendula wathi: “Loba phansi isibonakaliso usenze sicace ezicecedwini ukuze isithunywa sigijime laso.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē, “Tohi ʻae meʻa hā mai, pea fai ke ʻilongofua ia ʻi he ngaahi palepale, koeʻuhi ke faʻa lele ʻe ia ʻoku ne lau ia.
3 Ngoba isibonakaliso silindela isikhathi esimisiweyo; sikhuluma ngesiphetho njalo kasiyikuba ngamanga. Lanxa siphuza, silindele; sizafika impela njalo kasiyikuphuza.
He ʻoku tuku ʻae meʻa hā mai ki ha kuonga kuo kotofa, pea ʻe lea ia ʻi he ngataʻanga, ka ʻe ʻikai loi: kapau ʻoku tuai ia, tatali ki ai, koeʻuhi ʻe hoko moʻoni ia, ʻe ʻikai tuai ia.
4 Khangela, uyazigqaja; izifiso zakhe kazilunganga, kodwa olungileyo uzaphila ngokholo lwakhe.
Vakai, ko ia ʻoku hiki hake ʻa hono laumālie, ʻoku ʻikai angatonu ia ʻiate ia ka ko e tonuhia ʻe moʻui ʻi heʻene tui.”
5 Impela iwayini liyamkhohlisa; uyazikhukhumeza njalo kalakho ukuphumula. Ngoba uyisihwaba njengengcwaba, njalo kasuthi njengokufa, ubuthelela izizwe zonke kuye athumbe labantu bonke. (Sheol )
Ko e moʻoni, hangē ko e tangata ʻoku angahala ʻi he uaine, ʻoku fielahi ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai nofomaʻu ʻi hono ʻapi: ʻoku ne fakalahi ʻene holi ʻo hangē ko e faʻitoka, pea tatau mo e mate, pea ʻoku ʻikai ke mākona, ka ʻoku tānaki kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea ʻoku fokotuʻu ki ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē: (Sheol )
6 Bonke kabayikumchothoza na bamhleke besithi, ‘Maye kulowo obuthelela impahla zokwebiwa azinothise ngobugebenga! Koze kube nini lokhu kusenzakala na?’
ʻE ʻikai toʻo hake ʻekinautolu ni kotoa pē ʻae lea fakatātā kiate ia, pea mo e lea taukae kiate ia, ʻo pehē, ‘Ke malaʻia kiate ia ʻoku fakalahi ʻaki ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ʻaʻana! ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa? Pea kiate ia ʻoku fakamamafa ʻaki ʻe ia ʻae ʻumea matolu!’
7 Labo olezikwelede kubo kabayikukujuma na? Kabayikuvuka bakuthuthumelise na? Lapho-ke uzakuba yinto yabo yokuhlutshwa.
ʻIkai ʻe tuʻu hake fakafokifā ʻakinautolu ʻo ʻuusi koe, pea ʻā ʻaia ʻe fakaʻitaʻi koe, pea ʻe hoko koe ko e vetea kiate kinautolu?
8 Ngoba sewaphanga izizwe ezinengi, abantu abaseleyo bazakuphanga ngoba wachitha igazi labantu; watshabalalisa amazwe lamadolobho labo bonke abakuwo.
Koeʻuhi kuo ke fakamālohi ki he ngaahi puleʻanga lahi, ʻe fakamālohiʻi koe ʻe he toenga kotoa pē ʻoe kakai; koeʻuhi ko e toto ʻoe kakai, mo e fakamālohi ki he fonua, mo e kolo, mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nofo ai.
9 Maye kulowo obumba umbuso ngenzuzo embi ukuba akhele isidleke sakhe phezulu ukuba abalekele ukuwelwa yingozi!
Ke malaʻia kiate ia ʻoku manumanu ki he koloa kovi ki hono fale, koeʻuhi ke ne ngaohi hono pununga ʻi he māʻolunga, koeʻuhi ke fakahaofi ia mei he mālohi ʻoe kovi!
10 Ucebe ukubhujiswa kwabantu abanengi, wayangisa indlu yakho, walahlekelwa yikuphila kwakho.
Kuo ke filioʻi ʻae fakamā ki ho fale ʻi he tuʻusi ʻoe kakai tokolahi, pea kuo ke angahala ki ho laumālie.
11 Amatshe omduli azakhala imijabo yamapulanka izasabela.
ʻE tangi ʻae maka mei he ʻā, pea ʻe tali ia ʻe he ʻakau alanga fale.
12 Maye kulowo owakha idolobho ngokuchitha igazi akhe umuzi ngobudlwangudlwangu.
Ke malaʻia kiate ia ʻoku langa ʻae kolo ʻaki ʻae toto, pea fokotuʻu ʻae kolo ʻi he angahala!
13 UThixo uSomandla kakumisanga na ukuthi umsebenzi uzinkuni zomlilo nje kuphela, lokuthi izizwe ziqeda amandla azo ngeze?
Vakai, ʻikai ʻoku meia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻae kakai maʻa e afi pe, pea mo e fakamamahiʻi ʻae kakai ʻekinautolu ʻi he vaʻinga moʻoni?
14 Ngoba umhlaba uzagcwala ngolwazi lodumo lukaThixo, njengamanzi egcwalisa ulwandle.
Koeʻuhi ʻe fakafonu ʻa māmani ʻi he ʻilo ki he nāunau ʻo Sihova, ʻo hangē ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻae kilisi tahi ʻe he ngaahi vai.
15 Maye kulowo onika omakhelwane bakhe okunathwayo ekuthulula esigujini sewayini badakwe, ukuze akhangele imizimba yabo enqunu.
“Ke malaʻia kiate ia ʻoku ne ʻatu ʻae inu kona ki hono kaungāʻapi, ʻa koe ʻoku tuku hoʻo hina kiate ia, pea ke fakakona foki ia, koeʻuhi ke ke sio ki heʻenau telefua!
16 Uzakuba lehlazo elikhulu endaweni yodumo. Khathesi sekulithuba lakho! Natha uchayeke. Inkezo yesandla sokunene kaThixo iyeza kuwe, ihlazo lizamboza udumo lwakho.
Kuo fakapito ʻaki koe ʻae fakamā ko ho nāunau: ke ke inu foki, pea ʻe puke koe ʻi he tetetete mo e ofo lahi: ʻe ʻatu kiate koe ʻae ipu mei he nima toʻomataʻu ʻo Sihova, pea ʻe fakalieliaʻi ho nāunau.
17 Udlakela olwenze eLebhanoni luzakuqeda amandla, lokubulala kwakho izinyamazana kuzakuthuthumelisa. Ngoba uchithe igazi labantu; uchithe amazwe lamadolobho labo bonke abakuwo.
Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻufiʻufi koe ʻe he mālohi ʻo Lepanoni, mo e fakamālohiʻi ʻoe fanga manu, ʻaia naʻe fakamanavahēʻi ʻakinautolu; koeʻuhi ko e toto ʻoe kakai, pea koeʻuhi ko e fakamālohi ʻi he fonua, mo e kolo, mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nofo ai.
18 Silosizo bani isithombe njengoba sibazwe ngumuntu? Kumbe isifanekiso esifundisa amanga? Ngoba lowo osenzayo uthemba isidalwa sakhe; wenza izithombe ezingeke zikhulume.
“Ko e hā hono ʻaonga ʻoe fakatātā kuo tā, koeʻuhi ke tā ia ʻe he tufunga ʻo ia; pe ko e fakatātā haka, mo e akonaki loi, koeʻuhi ʻoku falala ʻae tufunga ki heʻene ngāue, ke ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi tamapua noa?
19 Maye kulowo othi esigodweni, ‘Vuka uphile!’ loba athi elitsheni elingaphiliyo, ‘Phaphama!’ Linganika iseluleko na? Lembeswe ngegolide langesiliva, akulamphefumulo phakathi kwalo.”
Ke malaʻia kiate ia ʻoku pehē ki he ʻakau, ‘Ke ʻā;’ pe ki he maka noa, ‘Tuʻu hake; ʻe akonaki ia!’ Vakai, ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae koula, mo e siliva, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻaupito ha mānava ʻi loto ʻiate ia.
20 Kodwa uThixo usethempelini lakhe elingcwele; umhlaba wonke kawuthule phambi kwakhe.
Ka ʻoku ʻi hono ʻafioʻanga tapu ʻa Sihova: tuku ke longo pe ʻa māmani kotoa pē ʻi hono ʻao.
