UJoweli 2
1 Vuthelani icilongo eZiyoni; hlabani umkhosi entabeni yami engcwele. Bonke abahlala elizweni kabathuthumele, ngoba usuku lukaThixo luyeza. Selusondele, selufikile,
E PUHI oukou i ka pu ma Ziona, A e hookani i ka puwaikana ma kuu mauna hoano: E haalulu na kanaka a pau o ka aina: No ka mea, e hiki mai ana ka la o Iehova, Oia hoi, ua kokoke mai.
2 usuku lomnyama lokudana, usuku lwamayezi lobumnyama. Njengokusa kusendlaleka phezu kwezintaba, liyeza ibutho elikhulu elilamandla elingazange libe khona endulo kumbe libe khona eminyakeni ezayo.
He la pouli, a me ka popilikia, He la naulu a me ka pouli nui, E like me ka hohola ana o ke kakahiaka maluna o na mauna; He lahuikanaka nui, a me ka ikaika; Aole me keia mai ka wa kahiko mai, Aole hoi e like hou me ia mahope, I na makahiki o na hanauna he nui.
3 Phambi kwabo umlilo uyatshisa, ngemva kwabo amalangabi ayavutha. Phambi kwabo ilizwe linjengensimu yase-Edeni ngemva kwabo yinkangala elugwadule, akukho okubaphunyukayo.
E ai ana ke ahi imua ona, A mahope ona, he lapalapa e hoopau ana. Me ka mala o Edena, pela ka aina mamua ona; A mahope ona, me he waoakua la; Aole hoi e pakele kekahi mea ia ia.
4 Bakhangeleka benjengamabhiza; bamatha njengamabhiza empi.
Like me ka helehelena lio, pela kona helehelena; A me na hoohololio, pela lakou e holo ai.
5 Ngomsindo onjengowezinqola zempi, beqa phezu kwezingqongo zezintaba, njengamabibi omlilo etshisa inhlanga, njengebutho elilamandla selilungele impi.
Like me ka halulu o na halekaa maluna o na piko o na mauna, pela lakou e lele ai, Me ka halulu o ka lapalapa ahi e hoopau ana i ka nahelehele, Like me ka lahuikanaka ikaika i hoomakaukau e kaua aku.
6 Ekubaboneni nje, izizwe zizwa ubuhlungu; ubuso bonke buyadana.
E haalulu na kanaka imua o lakou: A keokeo na maka a pau i ka makau.
7 Bahlasela njengamaqhawe; bakhwele imiduli njengamabutho. Bonke bahamba beludwendwe bengaphambuki endleleni yabo.
E like me na kanaka ikaika e holo lakou: Like me na kanaka kaua e pii lakou i ka pa; E hele kela mea keia mea o lakou ma kona ala, Aole lakou e kapae ae i ko lakou hele ana;
8 Kabasunduzani; lowo lalowo uhamba eqonde phambili. Badabula phakathi kwezivikelo kungekho kwehlukana kubo.
Aole kekahi e hooke i kekahi; E hele no kela mea keia mea ma kona ala; A ina e lele aku lakou i ka pahikaua, aole lakou e eha.
9 Baya ngesiqubu edolobheni; bagijima besekele umduli. Bayakhwela bangene ezindlini; bangena ngamawindi njengamasela.
E hele lakou i o i o ma ke kulanakauhale, E holo lakou maluna o ka papohaku; E pii lakou maluna a na hale; E komo lakou ma na pukamakani me he aihue la.
10 Umhlaba uyanyikinyeka phambi kwabo; umkhathi uyaqhaqhazela, ilanga lenyanga kube mnyama, lezinkanyezi kazisakhanyisi.
E naue ka honua imua o lakou; E haalulu na lani; E pouli ka la, a me ka mahina, A e hoonalowale na hoku i ko lakou malamalama.
11 UThixo uyakhwaza phambi kwebutho lakhe; amabutho akhe angeke abalwe, njalo balamandla labo abalalela ukulaya kwakhe. Usuku lukaThixo lukhulu; luyesabeka. Ngubani ongalumela na?
A e hoopuka mai o Iehova i kona leo imua o kona kaua; No ka mea, ua nui loa kona wahi i hoomoana'i; No ka mea, ua ikaika ka mea nana e hooko i kana olelo; No ka mea, ua nui ka la o Iehova, a me ka weliweli nui; A owai la ke hoomanawanui ia mea?
12 “Lakhathesi,” kutsho uThixo, “phendukelani kimi ngenhliziyo zenu zonke, ngokuzila langokukhala lokulila.”
Ano hoi, wahi a Iehova, E hoi hou mai oukou ia'u me ko oukou naau a pau, A me ka hookeai ana, a me ka uwe ana, a me ke kanikau ana:
13 Dabulani inhliziyo zenu hatshi izigqoko zenu. Buyelani kuThixo uNkulunkulu wenu, ngoba ulomusa lesihawu, uyaphuza ukuthukuthela, ulothando olukhulu, njalo uyaxola ukuthumela umonakalo.
A e haehae i ko oukou naau, aole i ko oukou aahu, A e huli hou ae ia Iehova i ko oukou Akua; No ka mea, he lokomaikai, a he aloha kona, Ua lohi mai ka inaina, A he aloha nui kona, A ua hoololi hou ia i ka manao hoopai.
14 Ngubani owaziyo? Engxenye angaphenduka abe lesihawu atshiye isibusiso, iminikelo yamabele leminikelo yokunathwayo kaThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.
Malama paha e huli mai ia a e loli i ka manao, A e waiho mahope ona i ka hoomaikai ana; I ka mohai makana, a me ka mohai inu no Iehova ko oukou Akua?
15 Vuthelani icilongo eZiyoni, memezelani ukuzila okungcwele, bizani ibandla elingcwele.
E puhi oukou i ka pu ma Ziona, E hoolaa i ka hookeai ana, E kahea aku i ka halawai.
16 Buthanisani abantu, ngcwelisani ibandla; hlanganisani abadala, buthanisani abantwana labo abamunyayo. Umyeni katshiye indlu yakhe lomlobokazi atshiye ikamelo lakhe.
E hoakoakoa i na kanaka; E hoomaemae i ka ahakanaka; E houluulu i ka poe kahiko; E hoakoakoa i na keiki, a me na mea omo waiu: E hele aku ke kane mare iwaho o kona keena, A me ka wahine mare iwaho o kona keena moe.
17 Abaphristi abakhonzayo phambi kukaThixo, kabakhale bephakathi laphakathi kwentuba le-alithari. Kabathi, “Awu Thixo, zwela abantu bakho. Ungenzi ilifa lakho libe yinto yokuhlekwa, isiga phakathi kwezizwe. Kungani phakathi kwezizwe kumele bathi, ‘Ungaphi uNkulunkulu wabo?’”
Iwaena o ka lanai a me ke kuahu e auwe iho na kahuna, na lawehana a Iehova, A e olelo aku lakou, E ahonui mai, e Iehova, i kou poe kanaka, A mai haawi aku i kou hooilina i ka hoinoia mai, I noho alii ai na lahuikanaka e maluna o lakou: No ke aha la e olelo ae lakou, iwaena o na kanaka, Auhea ko lakou Akua?
18 Lapho-ke uThixo uzakuba lobukhwele ngelizwe lakhe abe lesihawu ebantwini bakhe.
Alaila, e lili mai o Iehova no kona aina, A e aloha mai i kona poe kanaka.
19 UThixo uzabaphendula athi: “Ngiyalithumela amabele lewayini elitsha lamafutha, okwaneleyo ukulisuthisa ngokugcweleyo; angiyikuphinda futhi ukulenza into yokuhlekisa ezizweni.
A e olelo mai o Iehova, a e i mai i kona poe kanaka, Aia hoi, e haawi aku au i ka ai, i ka waina, a me ka aila, a e maona oukou ma ia mea: Aole au e hoolilo hou ia oukou i ka hoinoia iwaena o na lahuikanaka:
20 Ibutho lasenyakatho ngizalixotshela khatshana lani, ngilifuqele elizweni elomileyo elilugwadule, amaviyo alo aphambili esiya olwandle lwasempumalanga lawo angemuva esiya olwandle lwasentshonalanga. Iphunga lalo elibi lizakuya phezulu, umnuko walo uzaphakama.” Ngempela wenze izinto ezinkulu ezimangalisayo.
A e hookaawale loa aku au, mai o oukou aku, i ke kaua o ke kukulu akau. A hookuke aku ia ia i ka aina maloo, a neoneo; O kona alo ma ke kai hikina, A o kona kua ma ke kai komohana; A e pii ae kona pilau, A e pii ae kona hauna, No ka mea, ua hana hookiekie no ia.
21 Ungesabi, wena lizwe; thaba uthokoze. Impela uThixo wenze izinto ezinkulu.
Mai makau oe, e ka aina; E olioli, a e hauoli hoi, No ka mea, e hana mai o Iehova i na mea nui.
22 Lingesabi, lina zinyamazana zeganga, ngoba amadlelo asesiba luhlaza. Izihlahla sezithela izithelo zazo; imikhiwa lemivini kuthela kakhulu.
Mai makau oukou, e na holoholona o ke kula: No ka mea, ke uliuli mai nei ka aina panoa; Ke hua mai nei ka laau i kona hua, Ke hua mai nei ka laau fiku a me ke kumuwaina, me ko lakou ikaika.
23 Thabani, lina bantu baseZiyoni, thokozani kuThixo uNkulunkulu wenu ngoba ulinike izulu lekwindla ngokulunga. Ulilethela izulu elinengi kanye lezulu lekwindla lelentwasa, njengakuqala.
O oukou, e na keiki o Ziona, e olioli, a e hauoli hoi iloko o Iehova ko oukou Akua; No ka mea, ua haawi mai ia no oukou i ke kuaua mua ma ka pono, A e hooua mai no oukou i ka ua, I ke kuaua mua, a i ke kuaua hope, e like mamua.
24 Iziza zizagcwala amabele; izikhamelo zizaphuphuma iwayini lamafutha.
A piha na kahua hahi i ka ai, A piha loa na waihona i ka waina hou, a me ka aila.
25 “Ngizalihlawula okwaleyo minyaka lokho okwadliwa zintethe, lesikhonyane lobuyane, ezinye izintethe kanye lemitshitshi yezintethe, ibutho lami elikhulu engalithumela kini.
A e uku au ia oukou no na makahiki o na uhini i ai ai, A ka uhini huluhulu, a me ka uhini hulu ole, a me ka uhini opio hulu ole, Kuu poe kaua nui a'u i hoouna aku ai iwaena o oukou.
26 Lizakuba lokudla okunengi lize lisuthe, njalo lizadumisa ibizo likaThixo uNkulunkulu wenu, olenzele izimangaliso; abantu bami kabayikuphinda bayangeke futhi.
A e ai oukou i ka ai a maona, A e hoolea aku i ka inoa o Iehova ko oukou Akua, Ka mea i hana kupanaha mai ia oukou; Aole loa e hilahila kuu poe kanaka.
27 Ngakho lizakwazi ukuthi ngiko-Israyeli, lokuthi mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu, kanye lokuthi kakho omunye; abantu bami kabayikuphinda bayangeke futhi.”
A e ike no oukou, Owau no iwaena o ka Iseraela, A owau no o Iehova ko oukou Akua, aole mea e ae; Aole loa e hilahila kuu poe kanaka.
28 “Emva kwalokho, ngizathululela uMoya wami kubo bonke abantu. Amadodana lamadodakazi enu azaphrofitha, izinsizwa zenu zizabona imibono, lamaxhegu enu azaphupha amaphupho.
A i ka wa mahope, e ninini aku au i kuu Uhane maluna o na kanaka a pau; A e wanana na keikikane a oukou, a me na kaikamahine a oukou, A e moe ko oukou poe elemakule i na moe uhane, E ike ko oukou poe kanaka opio i na hihio:
29 Lasezincekwini zami, ezesilisa lezesifazane, ngizawuthulula uMoya wami ngalezonsuku.
A maluna hoi o na kauwakane, A maluna o na kauwawahine i kela mau la, e ninini aku au i kuu Uhane.
30 Ngizabonakalisa izimangaliso emazulwini lasemhlabeni, igazi lomlilo lezikhatha zentuthu.
A e hoike aku au i na mea kupanaha ma ka lani, a ma ka honua; He koko, a me ke ahi, a me na kia ao uahi.
31 Ilanga lizaphendulwa libe yibumnyama lenyanga ibeligazi phambi kokuba kufike usuku olukhulu lukaThixo, olwesabekayo.
E lilo ka la i pouli, a o ka mahina i koko, mamua o ka hiki ana mai o ia la nui weliweli la o Iehova.
32 Njalo wonke obiza ibizo likaThixo uzasindiswa; ngoba eNtabeni iZiyoni laseJerusalema kuzakuba lokukhululwa, njengoba uThixo etshilo, iloba phakathi kwabasindileyo labo ababizwa nguThixo.”
A o ka mea e kahea aku i ka inoa o Iehova, e hoopakeleia oia: No ka mea, ma ka mauna Ziona, a ma Ierusalema, ka mea hoopakele, e like me ka Iehova i olelo mai ai, A mawaena o ka poe i koe a Iehova o kahea aku ai.
