Amahubo 60
1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabelela. Kulandelwa itshuni ethi, “Iluba lesiVumelwano.” Imikithamu kaDavida. Elokufundisa. Lapho alwa lo-Aramu Naharayimu lo-Aramu Zobha, njalo lapho uJowabi athi ekubuyeni kwakhe walahla phansi ama-Edomi azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili eSigodini seTswayi. Ususilahlile, Oh Nkulunkulu, wabhidliza izinqaba zethu; ubukade uthukuthele, manje ake usivuselele!
Kumutungamiri wokuimba namaimbirwo e“Ruva reMahapa reSungano.” Rwiyo rweMikitami rwaDhavhidhi. Rwokudzidzisa. Paakarwa neAramu Naharaimu neAramu Zobha, uye panguva yakadzoka Joabhu akaparadza zviuru gumi nezviviri zvavaEdhomu muMupata woMunyu. Makatiramba, imi Mwari, uye mukatirwisa; makanga makatsamwa, zvino tidzorei henyu!
2 Usulizamazamisile ilizwe waliqhekeza; namathisela iminkenke yalo ngoba selivevezela.
Makazungunusa nyika mukaitsemura napakati; gadzirai henyu mitswe yayo, nokuti iri kudengenyeka.
3 Ubabonisile abantu bakho izikhathi ezilukhuni; usiphe iwayini elisenza sidiyazele.
Makaratidza vanhu venyu nguva dzakaoma; makatipa waini inotidzedzeresa.
4 Kodwa kulabo abakwesabayo usuphakamise uphawu lokubahlanganisa ndawonye.
Asi kuna vanokutyai, makasimudza mureza kuti urege kupfaranyurwa neuta. Sera
5 Sisindise, usisize ngesandla sakho sokunene, ukuze bonke labo obathandayo bakhululwe.
Tiponesei uye tibatsirei noruoko rwenyu rworudyi, kuti avo vamunoda varwirwe.
6 UNkulunkulu usekhulumile esendlini yakhe engcwele: “Ngokunqoba ngizayaba iShekhemu, ngihlole leSigodi saseSukhothi.
Mwari akataura ari muimba yake tsvene achiti: “Ndichaganhura Shekemu nesimba uye ndichayera Mupata weSukoti.
7 Ngeyami iGiliyadi, loManase ngowami; u-Efrayimi yisivikelo sekhanda lami, uJuda uyintonga yami yobukhosi.
Gireadhi nderangu, uye Manase ndowangu; Efuremu inguwani yangu yakasimba, Judha itsvimbo yangu.
8 IMowabi ngumganu wami wokugezela, phezu kuka-Edomi ngiphosela amanyathelo ami; phezu kweFilistiya ngihalalisa umkhosi wokunqoba.”
Moabhu ndiwo mudziyo wangu wokushambira, pamusoro paEdhomu ndipo pandinokanda shangu yangu; pamusoro paFiristia ndinopururudza mukukunda.”
9 Ngubani ozangisa emzini olenqaba na? Ngubani ozangiholela e-Edomi na?
Ndianiko achandiisa kuguta rakakomberedzwa? Ndianiko achanditungamirira kuenda kuEdhomu?
10 Kakusuwe na, Oh Nkulunkulu, wena osusilahlile, ongasaphumi lathi ezimpini zethu?
Hamusimi, iyemi Mwari, iyemi makatiramba here, uye mukarega kubuda nehondo dzedu?
11 Ake usisize ezitheni zethu, ngoba usizo lomuntu luyize.
Tibatsirei pavavengi vedu, nokuti rubatsiro rwavanhu haruna maturo.
12 Nxa siloNkulunkulu sizanqoba, njalo uzazinyathelela phansi izitha zethu.
NaMwari wedu, tichakunda, uye achatsikira vavengi vedu pasi.
