< UHabakhukhi 3 >

1 Umkhuleko kaHabhakhukhi umphrofethi. NgeShigiyonothi.
Ko e lotu ʻa Hapakuki ko e palōfita ʻi he Sikaiona.
2 Thixo, ngizwile ngodumo lwakho; ngiyazesaba izenzo zakho, awu Thixo. Zivuselele ensukwini zethu, yenza zazakale esikhathini sethu; ekuthukutheleni khumbula isihawu.
‌ʻE Sihova, kuo u fanongo ki hoʻo folofola, pea ne u manavahē: ʻE Sihova, fakaakeake hoʻo ngāue ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi taʻu, fakahā ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi taʻu; ʻi he houhau, manatu ki he ʻaloʻofa.
3 UNkulunkulu wavela eThemani, oNgcwele wavela eNtabeni iPharani. Inkazimulo yakhe yasibekela amazulu lokudunyiswa kwakhe kwagcwala umhlaba wonke.
Naʻe hāʻele mai ʻae ʻOtua mei Timani, mo e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni mei he moʻunga ko Palani. (Sila) Naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻae ngaahi langi ʻe hono nāunau, pea naʻe fonu ʻa māmani ʻi hono fakamālō.
4 Ubucwazicwazi bakhe babunjengokuphuma kwelanga; imisebe yaphazima esandleni sakhe lapho amandla akhe ayefihlwe khona.
Pea naʻe malama ia ʻo hangē ko e maama; naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae maama ulo mei hono nima: pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae fakafufū ʻo ʻene māfimafi.
5 Isifo sahamba phambi kwakhe, umkhuhlane walandela amanyathelo akhe.
Naʻe ʻalu atu ʻi hono ʻao ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha, pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻi hono vaʻe ʻae maka fefie ʻoku vela.
6 Wasukuma, wanyikinya umhlaba; wakhangela, waqhaqhazelisa izizwe. Izintaba zasendulo zabhidlika lamaqaqa akudala adilika. Izindlela zakhe ngezanini lanini.
Naʻe tuʻu ia, ʻo fuofua ʻae fonua: naʻa ne ʻafioʻi, mo fakamovetevete ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga; naʻe fakamovetevete ʻae ngaahi moʻunga taʻengata, naʻe ofeʻi hifo ʻae ngaahi tafungofunga tuʻumaʻu: ʻoku taʻengata ʻa hono ngaahi ʻaluʻanga.
7 Ngabona amathente aseKhushani ephakathi kosizi, lezindawo zokuhlala zaseMidiyani zisebuhlungwini.
Naʻaku mamata ʻoku ʻi he mamahi ʻae ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo Kusani: pea naʻe tetetete ʻae ngaahi puipui ʻoe fonua ko Mitiane.
8 Awu Thixo, imifula wawuyithukuthelele na? Ulaka lwakho lwavuthela izifula na? Ulwandle wawuluthukuthelele na lapho ugade amabhiza akho lezinqola zakho zempi ezinqobayo?
Naʻe mamahi ʻa Sihova ki he ngaahi vaitafe? Naʻa ke houhau ki he ngaahi vaitafe? Naʻe ʻi he tahi ʻa ho tuputāmaki, koeʻuhi naʻa ke heka ai ʻi hoʻo fanga hoosi, mo hoʻo ngaahi saliote ʻoe fakamoʻui?
9 Idandili lakho ulembule, ufune imitshoko eminengi. Uqhekeze umhlaba ngemifula;
Naʻe toʻo ʻo teke ʻa hoʻo kaufana, ʻo fakatatau mo e ngaahi fuakava ki he ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻio, ko hoʻo folofola. (Sila) Naʻa ke fahifahi ʻaki ʻae fonua ʻae ngaahi vaitafe.
10 izintaba zakubona zajanqula, izikhukhula zamanzi zedlula, ulwandle lwahlokoma, lwaphakamisela amagagasi alo phezulu.
Naʻe mamata kiate koe ʻae ngaahi moʻunga, pea nau tetetete ai: naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae fetafeaki ʻoe vai: naʻe fakahā ʻe he moana ʻa hono leʻo, pea hiki hake hono nima ki ʻolunga.
11 Ilanga lenyanga kwema mpo emazulwini ekubenyezeleni kwemitshoko yakho entwezayo, ekuphazimeni kwemitshoko yakho ecazimulayo.
Naʻe tuʻumaʻu ʻae laʻā, mo e māhina ʻi hona nofoʻanga: naʻe ʻalu atu hoʻo ngaahi ngahau ʻi hona maama, pea ʻi he ulo ho tao ngingila.
12 Wanyathela umhlaba ngolaka, wabhula izizwe ngentukuthelo.
Naʻa ke hāʻele atu ʻi he fonua, ʻi he tuputāmaki, naʻa ke haha ʻae hiteni ʻi ho houhau.
13 Waphuma ukuba ukhulule abantu bakho, ukuba usindise ogcotshiweyo wakho. Umkhokheli welizwe lobubi umchobozile, wamebula kusukela ekhanda kusiya enyaweni.
Naʻa ke meʻa atu koeʻuhi ko e fakamoʻui ʻo hoʻo kakai, ʻio, koeʻuhi ko e fakamoʻui ʻo hoʻo kau pani: naʻa ke taaʻi ʻae ʻulu ʻi he fale ʻoe angakovi, naʻa ke fakaʻauha hono tuʻunga, ʻo aʻu ki he maka. (Sila)
14 Umhlabe ikhanda ngomkhonto wakhe lapho amabutho akhe ephume ngesiqubu ukuba asihlakaze, ethokoza kungani asezakudla abahluphekayo abebecatshile.
Naʻa ke hokaʻi ʻae ʻulu ʻo ʻene kautau, mei hono ngaahi faʻahinga: naʻe haʻu ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e ʻahiohio ke fakamovete au: ko ʻenau fiefiaʻanga ia, ke keina ʻae masiva ʻi he fufū.
15 Wanyathela ulwandle ngamabhiza akho, uqubula amanzi amanengi.
Naʻa ke hāʻele atu mo hoʻo fanga hoosi ʻi he tahi, ʻi he fokotuʻunga ʻoe ngaahi vai lahi.
16 Ngezwa, inhliziyo yami yatshaya, izindebe zami zabikizeliswa ngumsindo; amathambo ami angenwa yikubola, imilenze yami yaqhaqhazela. Kodwa ngizalindela ngesineke usuku lomonakalo ukuba lufike esizweni esihlasela esethu.
‌ʻI heʻeku fanongo ki ho leʻo, naʻe ngalulu hoku fatu; naʻe tetetete hoku ngutu ʻi ho leʻo: naʻe hū ʻae popo ki hoku ngaahi hui, pea u tetetete ʻiate au; ka te u mālōlō ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi: ʻoka hoko hake ia ki he kakai, te ne hoko mo ʻene ngaahi kautau, kiate kinautolu.
17 Lanxa isihlahla somkhiwa singanunkuli lamavini engekho emivinini; lanxa ama-oliva engathelanga, lamasimu engabanga lokudla, lanxa kungelazimvu esibayeni lenkomo zingekho ezibayeni,
Neongo ʻene ʻikai fisi ʻae ʻakau ko e fiki, pea ʻe ʻikai ha fua ʻi he ngaahi vaine; pea kovi ʻae tupu ʻoe ʻolive, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻi he ngaahi ngoue ha meʻakai; pea ʻe motuhi ʻae fanga sipi mei he lotoʻā, pea ʻe ʻikai ha fanga manu ʻi he ngaahi tuʻunga:
18 kodwa ngizathokoza kuThixo, ngizajabula kuNkulunkulu uMsindisi wami.
Ka neongo ia te u fiefia ʻia Sihova, pea u nekeneka ʻi he ʻOtua ʻo hoku fakamoʻui.
19 UThixo Wobukhosi ungamandla ami; wenza inyawo zami zibe njengezempala, ungenza ngihambe ezindaweni eziphakemeyo. Ngeyomqondisi womculo. Ezigincini zami.
Ko ʻeku mālohi ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua, pea te ne ngaohi hoku vaʻe ke hangē ko e vaʻe ʻoe hainite, pea te ne pule ke u ʻeveʻeva ʻi hoku ngaahi potu māʻolunga. Ki heʻeku takimuʻa ʻoe fasi hiva ʻi he Nekina.
