UMikha 6
1 Lalelani okutshiwo nguThixo ukuthi: “Sukumani lilandise indaba yenu phambi kwezintaba; amaqaqa kawezwe lokho elikutshoyo.
Mou fanongo mai ki he meʻa ʻoku folofola ki ai ʻa Sihova; “Tuʻu hake, pea ke fai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga, pea ke fanongo ʻae ngaahi tafungofunga ki ho leʻo.
2 Zwanini, lina zintaba, icala elethulwa nguThixo; lalelani lina zisekelo zomhlaba ezingulaphakade. Ngoba kulecala uThixo alibeka ebantwini bakhe, wethesa u-Israyeli icala.
Fanongo ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ki he fakamaau ʻae ʻEiki, mo kimoutolu ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga mālohi ʻo māmani; he ʻoku ai ʻae fakamaau ʻae ʻEiki mo hono kakai, pea te ne fakamatala mo ʻIsileli.
3 Bantu bami, ngenzeni kini na? Ngilihluphe ngani na? Ngiphendulani.
ʻE hoku kakai, Ko e hā kuo u fai kiate koe? Pea kuo u fakafiuʻi ko e ʻi he hā? Fakamatala mai!
4 Ngalikhupha eGibhithe ngalikhulula elizweni lobugqili. Ngathuma uMosi ukuba alikhokhele kanye lo-Aroni loMiriyemu.
He ne u ʻomi koe mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea ne u huhuʻi koe mei he fale ʻoe kau tamaioʻeiki, pea ne u fekau ʻa Mōsese, mo ʻElone, mo Miliami ke ʻalu ʻi ho ʻao.
5 Bantu bami, khumbulani izicebiso zikaBhalaki inkosi yaseMowabi lokuthi uBhalamu indodana kaBheyori waphendula wathini. Khumbulani uhambo lwenu kusukela eShithima kusiya eGiligali, ukuze lazi imisebenzi elungileyo kaThixo.”
ʻE hoku kakai, manatu eni ki he meʻa naʻe fakakaukau ki ai ʻe Pelaki, ko e tuʻi ʻo Moape, pea mo ia naʻe tali ʻaki ʻe Pelami ko e foha ʻo Peoli, mei Sitimi, ʻo aʻu ki Kilikali; koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻa Sihova.”
6 Kuyini engizakuza lakho phambi kukaThixo ngikhothame phambi kukaNkulunkulu ophakemeyo na? Ngizakuza phambi kwakhe ngilomnikelo wokutshiswa, ngilamathole alomnyaka owodwa na?
Te u ʻunuʻunu atu mo e ha kia Sihova, mo fakatōmapeʻe au ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua Māʻolunga? Te u ʻalu ki hono ʻao mo e ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo e fanga ʻuhiki pulu ʻoku taha taʻu?
7 UThixo angathokoziswa zinqama eziyizinkulungwane, izinkulungwane ezilitshumi zemifula yamafutha na? Ngizanikela izibulo lami ngenxa yokona kwami, isithelo somzimba wami ngenxa yesono somphefumulo wami na?
ʻE fiemālie ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngaahi toko afe ʻoe sipitangata, pe ʻi he ngaahi vaitafe lolo ʻe taha mano? ʻE ʻatu ʻeku ʻuluaki, koeʻuhi ko ʻeku ngaahi hia; ʻae fua ʻo hoku sino, koeʻuhi ko e angahala ʻa hoku laumālie?
8 Ukutshengisile wena muntu okuhle. UThixo ufunani kuwe na? Ukwenza okulungileyo lokuthanda umusa kanye lokuhamba ngokuzithoba loNkulunkulu wakho.
Kuo ne fakahā kiate koe, ʻe tangata ʻaia ʻoku lelei; pea ko e hā ʻoku ʻamanaki ʻe Sihova ʻiate koe, ka koeʻuhi ke ke fai totonu mo ke loto ki he ʻofa, mo ke ʻaʻeva mo ho ʻOtua ʻi he angavaivai?
9 Lalelani! UThixo umemezela kulo idolobho, lokwesaba ibizo lakho kuyikuhlakanipha, “Qaphelani umqwayi laLowo owubekileyo.
Ko e leʻo ʻo Sihova ʻoku ui ki he kolo, pea ʻe mamata ki ho huafa [ʻe he tangata ]poto: “Fanongo ʻakimoutolu ki he meʻa tā, pea mo ia kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ia.
10 Wena ndlu yobubi, kufanele lakhathesi ngiyikhohlwe inotho yakho eyazuzwa ngobubi, lehefa elinganelanga, eliqalekisiweyo na?
ʻOku kei ʻi he fale ʻoe angahala ʻae koloa ʻoe angahala, mo e meʻa fua nounou ʻaia ʻoku fakalielia?
11 Ngizamkhulula yini ecaleni umuntu olezilinganiso zobuqili, lesaka lezilinganiso zamanga na?
Te u lau ʻakinautolu ko e maʻa ka ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakamamafa kākā, pea mo e kato meʻa fakamamafa kākā?
12 Abantu bakhona abanothileyo balochuku; abantu bakhona ngabaqambi bamanga, lezilimi zabo zikhuluma inkohliso.
He ʻoku pito ʻi he fakamālohi ʻae kau tangata koloaʻia ʻi ai, pea kuo lea loi ʻae kakai ʻo ia; pea ʻoku kākā ʻa honau ʻelelo ʻi honau ngutu.
13 Ngakho sengiqalisile ukukuchitha, ukukuqothula ngenxa yezono zakho.
Ko ia foki te u fakamamahiʻi koe ʻi ho faʻa taaʻi, ʻi he ngaohi koe ke lala, koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ngaahi angahala.
14 Uzakudla kodwa ungasuthi; isisu sakho sizakuba silokhu singelalutho. Uzabuthelela kodwa ungalondolozi lutho, ngoba lokho okulondolozayo ngizakupha inkemba.
Te ke kai, ka ʻe ʻikai te ke mākona, pea ʻe ʻi ho lotolotonga ʻa hoʻo fakahifo ki lalo; pea te ke puke ka ʻe ʻikai te ke fakahaofi; pea ko ia ʻoku ke fakahaofi, te u tukuange ki he heletā.
15 Uzalima kodwa ungavuni; uzakhama ama-oliva kodwa amafutha awo ungawagcobi, uzakhama amavini kodwa iwayini lawo ungalinathi.
Te ke tūtuuʻi ka ʻe ʻikai te ke tuʻusi; te ke malaki ʻae ʻolive, ka ʻe ʻikai te ke takai koe ʻaki ʻae lolo; pea mo e uaine melie, ka ʻe ʻikai te ke inu uaine.
16 Ugcinile imithetho ka-Omri layo yonke imikhutshana yasendlini ka-Ahabi, walandela lamasiko abo. Ngakho-ke ngizakunikela ekubhujisweni, labantu bakho ekubeni yinhlekisa; uzathwala ihlazo lezizwe.”
He kuo maʻu pe ʻae ngaahi fono ʻa ʻOmili, pea mo e ngaahi ngāue ʻae fale ʻo ʻEhapi, pea ʻoku mou ʻeveʻeva ʻi heʻenau ngaahi fakakaukau; koeʻuhi ke u ngaohi kimoutolu ke lala, pea mo e kakai ʻo ia ko e fakaʻiseʻisa: ko ia te mou fua ai ʻae manuki ʻa hoku kakai.”
