Ndichashamisa muromo wangu nditaure nomufananidzo, ndichataura zvinhu zvakavanzika, zvinhu zvakare kare,
3 esakuzwayo lesikwaziyo esakutshelwa ngokhokho bethu.
zvatakanzwa nezvatakaziva, zvatakaudzwa namadzibaba edu.
4 Kasizukuzifihlela abantwana babo; sizasitshela isizukulwane esizayo ngemisebenzi emangalisayo kaThixo, amandla akhe, lemimangaliso aseyenzile.
Hatingazozvivanziri vana vavo; tichaudza rudzi runotevera mabasa angarumbidzwa aJehovha, simba rake, nezvishamiso zvaakaita.
5 Wamisela uJakhobe imithetho wabeka umlayo ko-Israyeli, walaya okhokho bethu ukuthi bawufundise abantwababo,
Akatema zvirevo zvaJakobho akasimbisa murayiro muIsraeri, waakarayira madzitateguru edu kuti vadzidzise vana vavo,
6 ukuze aziwe yisizukulwane esilandelayo, kanye labantwana abazazalwa, kuthi labo batshele abantwababo.
kuti rudzi runotevera ruzvizive, kunyange vana vachazoberekwa, naivo vagozoudzawo vana vavo.
7 Yikho-ke bazabeka ithemba labo kuNkulunkulu njalo abasoze bakhohlwa izenzo zakhe kodwa bagcine imilayo yakhe.
Ipapo vachavimba naMwari wavo uye havangazokanganwi mabasa ake asi vachazochengeta mirayiro yake.
8 Kabayikuba njengabokhokho babo ababeyisizukulwana esilobuqholo lesihlamukayo, onhliziyo zabo zazingazinikelanga kuNkulunkulu omoya yabo yayingathembekanga kuye.
Havazofanani namadzitateguru avo, rudzi rwakanga rwakasindimara uye rwaimumukira, mwoyo yavo yakanga isingateereri Mwari, mweya yavo yakanga isina kutendeka kwaari.
9 Amadoda ako-Efrayimi, loba ayehlomile ngemitshoko, afulathela mhla welanga lempi;
Vanhu vokwaEfuremu, kunyange vakanga vakapakata uta, vakadzokera shure pazuva rokurwa;
10 kabasigcinanga isivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu, bala ukuphila ngomthetho wakhe.
havana kuchengeta sungano yaMwari, uye vakaramba kufamba maererano nomurayiro wake.
11 Bakhohlwa lokho ayekwenzile, izimanga ayebatshengise zona.
Vakakanganwa zvaakaita, zvishamiso zvaakavaratidza.
12 Wenza imimangaliso oyise bekhangele elizweni laseGibhithe, esigodini saseZowani.
Akaita zviratidzo pamberi pamadzibaba avo munyika yeIjipiti, mudunhu reZoani.
13 Walwahlukanisa ulwandle wabahola bachapha; wenza amanzi ema aqina saka njengomduli.
Akapamura gungwa akavayambutsa napakati; akaita kuti mvura imire yakasimba sorusvingo.
14 Wabahola ngeyezi emini njalo ngokukhanya komlilo ubusuku bonke.
Akavatungamirira negore masikati, uye nechiedza chomoto usiku hwose.
15 Wawaqhekeza amadwala enkangala wabapha amanzi amanengi njengolwandle;
Akapamura ruware mugwenga akavapa mvura yakawanda seyamakungwa;
16 wantshazisa impophoma emadwaleni amawa wenza amanzi ageleza njengemifula.
akabudisa hova dzemvura paruware akaita kuti iyerere seyenzizi.
17 Kodwa baqhubeka besona phambi kwakhe, bamhlamukela enkangala yena oPhezukonke.
Asi vakaramba vachingomutadzira, vachimukira Wokumusoro-soro mugwenga.
18 Bamlinga uNkulunkulu ngabomo ngokucela ukudla ababekutshisekela.
Vakaedza Mwari nobwoni vachimugombedzera kuti avape zvokudya zvavaipanga.
19 Bamchothoza uNkulunkulu besithi, “Kambe uNkulunkulu angendlala itafula lokudlela enkangala na?
Vakapopotera Mwari, vachiti, “Ko, Mwari angawadzira tafura mugwenga here?
20 Wathi lapho etshaya idwala, amanzi antshantshaza, kwageleza amanzi amanengi. Kodwa angasipha njalo lokudla na? Angabalethela inyama abantu bakhe na?”
Paakarova dombo, mvura yakatubuka, uye hova dzakayerera mvura zhinji. Asi angagona kutipawo zvokudya here? Angavigira vanhu vake nyama here?”
21 UThixo wathi ebezwa wathukuthela kakhulu; umlilo wakhe wavuthela kuJakhobe, ulaka lwakhe lwaqina ku-Israyeli,
Jehovha akati avanzwa, akatsamwa zvikuru kwazvo; moto wake ukaveserwa Jakobho, uye hasha dzake dzikamukira Israeri,
22 ngoba kabamkholwanga uNkulunkulu njalo kabawathembanga amandla okuhlenga kwakhe.
nokuti havana kutenda muna Mwari kana kuvimba nokurwira kwake.
23 Loba kunjalo walaya umkhathi ngaphezulu wavula iminyango yamazulu;
Asi akarayira matenga kumusoro akazarura makonhi okumatenga;
24 wanisa imana ukuthi badle abantu, wabapha amabele asezulwini.
akanayisa mana kuti vanhu vadye, akavapa zviyo zvokudenga.
25 Abantu badla isinkwa sezingilosi; wabathumela konke ukudla ababengakudla.
Vanhu vakadya chingwa chavatumwa; akavatumira zvokudya zvose zvavaigona kudya.
26 Wawukhulula umoya wempumalanga uvela emazulwini, wawukhulula umoya weningizimu ngamandla akhe.
Akazarura mhepo yokumabvazuva kubva kudenga, uye akafambisa mhepo yakabva zasi nesimba rake.
27 Wanisela inyama kubo njengothuli, izinyoni eziphaphayo zaba njengetshebetshebe ogwini lolwandle.
Akavanayisira nyama pamusoro pavo seguruva, shiri dzinobhururuka dzakaita sejecha rokumhenderekedzo yegungwa.
28 Wazenza zehlela phakathi kwezihonqo zabo, indawana yonke emathenteni abo.
Akaita kuti dziburukire mumisasa yavo, dzakapoteredza matende avo ose.
29 Bazitika baze bakhangela, ngoba wayebaphe ababekade bekukhalela.
Vakadya kusvikira vaguta kwazvo, nokuti akanga avapa zvavakanga vachipanga.
30 Kodwa bengakakutshiyi lokho kudla ababekukhalela belokhu besakunambitha emilonyeni yabo,
Asi vasati vafuratira chokudya chavaikarira, kunyange pachakanga chichiri pamiromo yavo,
31 ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lwavutha kubo; wabulala zona iziqwabalanda zabo, wawahemula amajaha ako-Israyeli.
kutsamwa kwaMwari kwakavamukira; akauraya vakanga vakanyanya kusimba pakati pavo, akaparadza majaya eIsraeri.
32 Phezu kwakho konke lokhu baqhubeka besona; phezu kwezimanga zakhe, kabazange bakholwe.
Kunyange zvakadaro, vakaramba vachingotadza; kunyange zvazvo zviratidzo zvake izvi zvaivapo, havana kutenda.
33 Ngakho wenza insuku zabo zaphelela ezeni njalo leminyaka yabo yagcwala ukwesaba.
Saka akagumisa mazuva avo nezvisina maturo, uye makore avo mukutya.
34 Kwakusithi uNkulunkulu angababulala, bamdinge; baphendukele kuye njalo ngokutshiseka.
Pose pavaiurayiwa naMwari, ndipo pavaimutsvaka; vaishingairira kudzokerazve kwaari.
35 Bakhumbula ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayelidwala labo, ukuthi uNkulunkulu oPhezukonke wayenguMhlengi wabo.
Vakarangarira kuti Mwari ndiye Dombo ravo, kuti Mwari Wokumusoro-soro ndiye Mudzikinuri wavo.
36 Kodwa-ke kwakuyikumyenga ngemilomo yabo, beqamba amanga kuye ngendimi zabo;
Asizve vaingomubata kumeso nemiromo yavo, vachimurevera nhema nendimi dzavo;
37 inhliziyo zabo zazingabambelelanga kuye, babengathembekanga esivumelwaneni sakhe.
mwoyo yavo yakanga isina kutendeka kwaari, vakanga vasina kutendeka pasungano yake.
38 Kodwa wayelesihawu; wazithethelela izono zabo kaze ababhubhisa. Isikhathi ngesikhathi waluthoba ulaka lwakhe akaze akuqubula konke ukuthukuthela kwakhe.
Kunyange zvakadaro iye akavanzwira tsitsi; akavakanganwira kuipa kwavo akasavaparadza. Nguva nenguva akadzora kutsamwa kwake, uye haana kumutsa hasha dzake dzose.
39 Wakhumbula ukuthi babeyinyama nje intshongolo eyedlulayo nje ingabe isabuya.
Akarangarira kuti ivo vaingova nyama bedzi, mhepo inopfuura isingadzoki.
40 Kodwa ukuthi bamhlamukela kanengi njani enkangala, bamdabukisa egwaduleni!
Vakamumukira mugwenga kazhinji sei, uye vakamuitisa shungu murenje!
41 Baphindaphinda ukulinga uNkulunkulu; bamthukuthelisa oNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
Vakaedza Mwari vamuedzazve; vakagumbusa Iye Mutsvene waIsraeri.
42 Kabawakhumbulanga amandla akhe usuku abakhulula ngalo kumncindezeli,
Havana kurangarira simba rake, zuva raakavadzikinura kubva pamudzvinyiriri,
43 usuku lapho aveza khona izibonakaliso zakhe ezimangalisayo eGibhithe, izimanga zakhe esigodini saseZowani.
zuva raakaratidza zviratidzo zvake zvinoshamisa muIjipiti, zvishamiso zvake mudunhu reZoani.
44 Waguqula imifula yabo yaba ligazi; behluleka ukunatha ezifuleni zabo.
Akashandura nzizi dzavo dzikava ropa; havana kugona kunwa muhova dzavo.
45 Wathumela imihlambi yezibawu zabantinya, lamaxoxo ababhuqayo.
Akavatumira mapupira enhunzi dzikavaparadza, uye matatya akavaparadza zvikuru.
46 Amabele abo wawathela izintethe, izithelo zabo isikhongwane.
Akapa zviyo zvavo kumagutaguta nezvibereko zvavo kumhashu.
47 Wathintitha amavini abo ngesiqhotho lemikhiwa yabo yesikhamore wayitshazisa ngongqwaqwane.
Akaparadza mazambiringa avo nechimvuramabwe, uye namaonde emionde yavo nechando.
48 Inkomo zabo wazithela ngesiqhotho, izifuyo zabo zadliwa yizikhatha zombane.
Mombe dzavo akadziisa kuchimvuramabwe, nezvipfuwo zvavo kukurova kwemheni.
49 Wabathululela ulaka lwakhe oluvuthayo, intukuthelo yakhe, ukucunuka lenzondo ixuku lezingilosi ezibhubhisayo.
Akaregedzera kutsamwa kwake kukuru pamusoro pavo, hasha dzake, shungu dzake noukasha hwake, boka ravatumwa vokuparadza.
50 Wayilungisa indlela yolaka lwakhe; kabaphephisanga ekufeni kodwa wabanikela emikhuhlaneni.
Akagadzira nzira yokutsamwa kwake; haana kuponesa mweya yavo parufu asi akavaisa kudenda.
51 Wawabulala wonke amazibulo aseGibhithe, izithelo zabo zokuqala zokuba ngamadoda emathenteni kaHamu.
Akauraya matangwe ose eIjipiti, chibereko chokutanga chomurume pamatende aHamu.
52 Kodwa wabakhupha abantu bakhe njengomhlambi wezimvu; wabahola njengezimvu bedabula inkangala.
Asi akabudisa vanhu vake seboka ramakwai; akavatungamirira samakwai nomugwenga.
53 Wabakhokhela ngonanzelelo, ngakho babengesabi; kodwa ulwandle lwazigubuzela izitha zabo.
Akavafambisa norugare, asi gungwa rakamedza vavengi vavo.
54 Kanjalo wabaletha emngceleni welizwe lakhe elingcwele, elizweni lamaqaqa ayelithethe ngesandla sakhe sokunene.
Saizvozvo akavasvitsa kumuganhu wenyika yake tsvene, kunyika yamakomo yaakatora noruoko rwake rworudyi.
55 Wazixotsha izizwe phambi kwabo wabahlukanisela ilizwe lazo laba yilifa; wahlalisa izizwana zako-Israyeli emizini yazo.
Akadzinga ndudzi mberi kwavo, akagovera nyika yavo kwavari senhaka; akagarisa rudzi rwaIsraeri mudzimba dzavo.
56 Kodwa bamlinga uNkulunkulu, bamhlamukela oPhezukonke; kabayigcinanga imilayo yakhe.
Asi vakaedza Mwari uye vakamukira Wokumusoro-soro; vakasachengeta zvirevo zvake.
57 Njengabokhokho babo babengathembekanga bengakholwa, ungeke wathemba njengedandili elenziwe kubi.
Vakanga vasingazvirereki uye vasina kutendeka samadzibaba avo, vasingavimbiki souta hunonyengera.
58 Bamvusa ulaka ngezindawo zabo eziphezulu; baqubula ubukhwele bakhe ngezithombe zabo.
Vakamutsamwisa nenzvimbo dzavo dzakakwirira; vakamutsa godo rake nokuda kwezvifananidzo zvavo.
59 Wathi uNkulunkulu ngokukuzwa lokho, wathukuthela kakhulu; wamlahla qobo lokumlahla u-Israyeli.
Mwari akati avanzwa akatsamwa zvikuru kwazvo; akaramba Israeri zvachose.
60 Walidela ithabanikeli lakhe eShilo, ithente ayelakhile phakathi kwabantu.
Akasiya tabhenakeri yeShiro, iyo tende yaakanga amisa pakati pavanhu.
61 Umphongolo wakhe wamandla wawusa ekuthunjweni, inkazimulo yakhe ezandleni zesitha.
Akaendesa areka yesimba rake kuutapwa, kubwinya kwake mumaoko omuvengi.
62 Abantu bakhe wabanikela ukudliwa yinkemba; wayethukuthele kakhulu ngelifa lakhe.
Akaisa vanhu vake kumunondo; akatsamwira nhaka yake zvikuru kwazvo.
63 Umlilo waziqeda izinsizwa zabo, izintombi zabo zaswela izingoma zomtshado;
Moto wakaparadza majaya avo, uye varandakadzi vavo vakashayiwa nziyo dzesvitsa;
64 abaphristi babo babulawa ngenkemba, abafelokazi babo behluleka ukulila.
vaprista vavo vakanga vaiswa kumunondo, uye chirikadzi dzavo hadzina kugona kuchema.
65 INkosi yasivuka njengokade esebuthongweni, njengomuntu ephaphama ekudakweni yiwayini.
Ipapo Ishe akamuka somunhu anga akakotsira, somunhu amuka pakubatwa newaini.
66 Wazitshaya zahlehla izitha zakhe; waziyangisa okungapheliyo.
Akarova vavengi vake vakadzokera shure; akavanyadzisa nokusingaperi.
67 Khonapho-ke wawakhalala amathente kaJosefa, akaze asikhetha isizwana sika-Efrayimi;
Ipapo akaramba matende aJosefa, haana kusarudza rudzi rwaEfuremu;
68 kodwa wakhetha isizwana sikaJuda, iNtaba iZiyoni ayeyithanda.
asi akasarudza rudzi rwaJudha, Gomo reZioni, raakada.
69 Wakha indlu yakhe engcwele njengeziqongo, njengomhlaba awumisela ingunaphakade.
Akavaka nzvimbo yake tsvene senhare yakakwirira, senyika yaakasimbisa nokusingaperi.
70 Wakhetha uDavida inceku yakhe wamthatha ezilugwini zezimvu;
Akasarudza Dhavhidhi muranda wake, akamutora kumatanga amakwai;
71 wamsusa ekweluseni izimvu wamletha ukuba ngumelusi wabantu bakhe uJakhobe, baka-Israyeli ilifa lakhe.
akamubvisa pakufudza makwai kuti ave mufudzi wavanhu vake Jakobho, vaIsraeri nhaka yake.
72 Njalo uDavida wabelusa ngobuqotho benhliziyo; wabakhokhela ngesandla sobungcitshi.
Uye Dhavhidhi akavafudza nokururama kwomwoyo; akavatungamirira namaoko ouchenjeri.
