1 Ihubo ka-Asafu Zwanini imfundiso yami, bantu bami; lilalele amazwi omlomo wami.
Nkunga Asafi. A batu bama, wanu malongi mama! Dimbanu mambu ma munu ama.
2 Ngizavula umlomo wami ngemifanekiso, ngizakutsho izinto ezifihlekileyo, izinto zekadeni,
Ndiela zibula munu ama mu tuba zingana ayi ndiela samuna mambu ma suama, mambu makhulu;
3 esakuzwayo lesikwaziyo esakutshelwa ngokhokho bethu.
momo tuwa ayi momo tuzaba ayi momo bakulu beto batukamba;
4 Kasizukuzifihlela abantwana babo; sizasitshela isizukulwane esizayo ngemisebenzi emangalisayo kaThixo, amandla akhe, lemimangaliso aseyenzile.
Tulendi masuekila ko bana bawu; tuela samuna kuidi tsungi yinkuiza mavanga ma Yave mafueti zitusu, lulendo luandi ayi matsiminanga momo kavanga.
5 Wamisela uJakhobe imithetho wabeka umlayo ko-Israyeli, walaya okhokho bethu ukuthi bawufundise abantwababo,
Wuvana zithumunu mu diambu di Yakobi. Wukubika Mina mu Iseli, ayi wutumina bakulu beto muingi bamilonga kuidi bana bawu;
6 ukuze aziwe yisizukulwane esilandelayo, kanye labantwana abazazalwa, kuthi labo batshele abantwababo.
buna tsungi yinkuiza, yela zaba mawu buela bana bobo babutuki ko ayi bawu mamvawu mu thangu awu bela yolukila bana bawu;
7 Yikho-ke bazabeka ithemba labo kuNkulunkulu njalo abasoze bakhohlwa izenzo zakhe kodwa bagcine imilayo yakhe.
buna bela tula diana diawu mu Nzambi, ayi balendi zimbakana mavanga mandi ko, vayi bela keba zithumunu ziandi;
8 Kabayikuba njengabokhokho babo ababeyisizukulwana esilobuqholo lesihlamukayo, onhliziyo zabo zazingazinikelanga kuNkulunkulu omoya yabo yayingathembekanga kuye.
Balendi ba banga bakulu bawu ko; tsungi yikambulu bulemvo, ayi tsungi yi matingu; bobo mintima misia ba mifuana ko kuidi Nzambi bobo pheve yisia yikuikama kuidi Nzambi ko.
9 Amadoda ako-Efrayimi, loba ayehlomile ngemitshoko, afulathela mhla welanga lempi;
Batu ba Efalayimi bobo baba ayi mimbasa, bavutuka ku mbusa mu lumbu ki mvita.
10 kabasigcinanga isivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu, bala ukuphila ngomthetho wakhe.
Basi keba ko Nguizani yi Nzambi, ayi bamanga zingila boso buididi Mina miandi.
11 Bakhohlwa lokho ayekwenzile, izimanga ayebatshengise zona.
Bazimbakana momo kavanga; matsiminanga momo kabamonisa.
12 Wenza imimangaliso oyise bekhangele elizweni laseGibhithe, esigodini saseZowani.
Wuvanga bikumu va ntuala bakulu bawu mu tsi yi Ezipite; mu zunga ki Tsowani.
13 Walwahlukanisa ulwandle wabahola bachapha; wenza amanzi ema aqina saka njengomduli.
Wuvasa mbu ayi wuba viokila muawu; wutelimisa nlangu dio ngui banga baka.
14 Wabahola ngeyezi emini njalo ngokukhanya komlilo ubusuku bonke.
Wuba diatisa mu dituti va muini, ayi mu kiezila ki mbazu va builu bu mvimba.
15 Wawaqhekeza amadwala enkangala wabapha amanzi amanengi njengolwandle;
Wubasa matadi mu dikanga, ayi wuba vana nlangu wuwombo banga mbu;
16 wantshazisa impophoma emadwaleni amawa wenza amanzi ageleza njengemifula.
Wutotula mimvuila minlangu mu ditadi ayi wukumbisa minlangu banga minlangu minneni.
17 Kodwa baqhubeka besona phambi kwakhe, bamhlamukela enkangala yena oPhezukonke.
Vayi babuela tatamana sumuka diaka va ntualꞌandi; batinguna Nzambi Yizangama mu dikanga.
18 Bamlinga uNkulunkulu ngabomo ngokucela ukudla ababekutshisekela.
Batota Nzambi mu luzolo lungolo, mu lombanga mu kingolo bidia biobi batomba.
19 Bamchothoza uNkulunkulu besithi, “Kambe uNkulunkulu angendlala itafula lokudlela enkangala na?
Batubidila Nzambi batuba: “Nzambi beki kuandi bu kubikila meza mu dikanga e?
20 Wathi lapho etshaya idwala, amanzi antshantshaza, kwageleza amanzi amanengi. Kodwa angasipha njalo lokudla na? Angabalethela inyama abantu bakhe na?”
Bu kabula ditadi dingolo, mbadi nlangu wutotuka ayi mimvuila mikumba mu buwombo vayi buna wulendi kuandi kutuvana bidia e? Wulendi kuandi kubika zimbizi mu diambu di batu bandi e?”
21 UThixo wathi ebezwa wathukuthela kakhulu; umlilo wakhe wavuthela kuJakhobe, ulaka lwakhe lwaqina ku-Israyeli,
Yave bu kaba wa, wufuema ngolo, mbazu andi yilema mu diambu di Yakobi ayi miangu miandi mibuila Iseli.
22 ngoba kabamkholwanga uNkulunkulu njalo kabawathembanga amandla okuhlenga kwakhe.
Bila basia wilukila Nzambi ko, voti basia tula diana diawu mu khudulu andi ko.
23 Loba kunjalo walaya umkhathi ngaphezulu wavula iminyango yamazulu;
Muaki wuvana lutumunu kuidi matuti ma yilu ayi wuzibula mielo mi diyilu;
24 wanisa imana ukuthi badle abantu, wabapha amabele asezulwini.
Wunokisa mana mu diambu di batu muingi badia; wuba vana zitheti zi diyilu.
25 Abantu badla isinkwa sezingilosi; wabathumela konke ukudla ababengakudla.
Batu badia dipha di zimbasi; wuba fidisila bidia bioso biobi balenda dia.
26 Wawukhulula umoya wempumalanga uvela emazulwini, wawukhulula umoya weningizimu ngamandla akhe.
Wuvevumuna phemo yi Esite mu diyilu. Wudiata ku ntuala phemo yi Sude mu lulendo luandi.
27 Wanisela inyama kubo njengothuli, izinyoni eziphaphayo zaba njengetshebetshebe ogwini lolwandle.
Wuba nokisila zimbizi banga mbungi-mbungi; zinuni zieti dumuka banga nzielo yi mbu.
28 Wazenza zehlela phakathi kwezihonqo zabo, indawana yonke emathenteni abo.
Wuba buisila biawu va khatitsika ka kiawu; muyenda zinzo ziawu zioso zingoto.
29 Bazitika baze bakhangela, ngoba wayebaphe ababekade bekukhalela.
Badia nate bayukuta kuwombo; ayi wuba vana biobi baleba mu kingolo.
30 Kodwa bengakakutshiyi lokho kudla ababekukhalela belokhu besakunambitha emilonyeni yabo,
Tuamina batamba bidia biobi baleba mu kingolo mbusa, buela bikidi mu miunu miawu.
31 ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lwavutha kubo; wabulala zona iziqwabalanda zabo, wawahemula amajaha ako-Israyeli.
Nganzi yi Nzambi yi babuila; wuvonda bobo baluta ba zinitu zingolo mu bawu; wuvonda bana ba matoko ma Iseli.
32 Phezu kwakho konke lokhu baqhubeka besona; phezu kwezimanga zakhe, kabazange bakholwe.
Ka diambu ko mambu moso momo, batatamana vola masumu ka diambu ko matsiminanga mandi, basia wilukila ko.
33 Ngakho wenza insuku zabo zaphelela ezeni njalo leminyaka yabo yagcwala ukwesaba.
Buna wumanisa bilumbu biawu mu phamba ayi mimvu miawu mu tsisi.
34 Kwakusithi uNkulunkulu angababulala, bamdinge; baphendukele kuye njalo ngokutshiseka.
Kadika khumbu kaba kuba vondanga, tombanga baba kuntombanga, balukanga nsualu-nsualu diaka kuidi niandi.
35 Bakhumbula ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayelidwala labo, ukuthi uNkulunkulu oPhezukonke wayenguMhlengi wabo.
Batebuka moyo ti Nzambi niandi wuba dibanga diawu ayi Nzambi Yizangama niandi nkudi awu.
36 Kodwa-ke kwakuyikumyenga ngemilomo yabo, beqamba amanga kuye ngendimi zabo;
Vayi buna bankamba mambu ma lueki mu miunu miawu bamvuna mu ludimi luawu.
37 inhliziyo zabo zazingabambelelanga kuye, babengathembekanga esivumelwaneni sakhe.
Mintima miawu misia ba mifuana kuidi niandi ko basia ba bakuikama ko mu Nguizani andi.
38 Kodwa wayelesihawu; wazithethelela izono zabo kaze ababhubhisa. Isikhathi ngesikhathi waluthoba ulaka lwakhe akaze akuqubula konke ukuthukuthela kwakhe.
Vayi niandi wuba nkua kiadi wuba lemvukila mambimbi mawu kasia babunga ko thangu ka thangu wudekula nganzi andi ayi kasia totula ko miangu miandi mioso.
39 Wakhumbula ukuthi babeyinyama nje intshongolo eyedlulayo nje ingabe isabuya.
Wutebuka moyo ti baba minsuni kaka; phemo yeti vioka yoyi yilendi vutuka ko. Ayi wulendi buela vutuka ko.
40 Kodwa ukuthi bamhlamukela kanengi njani enkangala, bamdabukisa egwaduleni!
Zikhumbu ziwombo bantingunina mu dikanga, ayi bansoka mu bibuangu bikambulu batu.
41 Baphindaphinda ukulinga uNkulunkulu; bamthukuthelisa oNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
Khumbu ka khumbu baba vutukilanga diaka tota Nzambi; bafuemisa mutu wunlongo wu Iseli kiadi.
42 Kabawakhumbulanga amandla akhe usuku abakhulula ngalo kumncindezeli,
Basia tebukila ko moyo lulendo luandi mu lumbu kioki kaba kula mu mioko mi mutu wuba yamisa;
43 usuku lapho aveza khona izibonakaliso zakhe ezimangalisayo eGibhithe, izimanga zakhe esigodini saseZowani.
mu lumbu kamonisa bidimbu bi bikumu biandi mu Ezipite, mambu mandi matsiminanga mu ndambu tsi yi Tsowani
44 Waguqula imifula yabo yaba ligazi; behluleka ukunatha ezifuleni zabo.
wukitula minlangu miawu menga; basia buela baka bumina mu mimvuila mi minlangu miawu.
45 Wathumela imihlambi yezibawu zabantinya, lamaxoxo ababhuqayo.
Wufidisa nkangu zinzinzi ziozi zibadia ayi zinguanga ziozi zi babunga.
46 Amabele abo wawathela izintethe, izithelo zabo isikhongwane.
Wavana mimbutu miawu mu zitsola kuidi binzienzi biobi basala kuidi makhoko.
47 Wathintitha amavini abo ngesiqhotho lemikhiwa yabo yesikhamore wayitshazisa ngongqwaqwane.
Wumana bunga zindima ziawu zi vinu mu mvula yi matadi ayi minti miawu mi sikomole mu kiozi ki ngolo,
48 Inkomo zabo wazithela ngesiqhotho, izifuyo zabo zadliwa yizikhatha zombane.
wuyekula bibulu biawu kuidi mvula yi matadi ayi minkangu mi mamemi mawu kuidi lusiemo.
49 Wabathululela ulaka lwakhe oluvuthayo, intukuthelo yakhe, ukucunuka lenzondo ixuku lezingilosi ezibhubhisayo.
Wuba fidisila nganzi andi yi mbazu, miangu miandi mi ngolo khakumusu, kimbeni weti bunga
50 Wayilungisa indlela yolaka lwakhe; kabaphephisanga ekufeni kodwa wabanikela emikhuhlaneni.
Wukubika nsolo mu diambu di nganzi andi kasia kuba tanina ko mu lufua; vayi wuba yekula mu minsongo;
51 Wawabulala wonke amazibulo aseGibhithe, izithelo zabo zokuqala zokuba ngamadoda emathenteni kaHamu.
Wuvonda bana boso batheti bababakala ba Ezipiti mimbutu mitheti mi zingolo mu zinzo zi ngoto zi Hami.
52 Kodwa wabakhupha abantu bakhe njengomhlambi wezimvu; wabahola njengezimvu bedabula inkangala.
Vayi wutotula batu bandi banga mamemi; wuba tuadisa banga nkangu wu bibulu mu dikanga.
53 Wabakhokhela ngonanzelelo, ngakho babengesabi; kodwa ulwandle lwazigubuzela izitha zabo.
Wuba diatisila mu luvovomo; diawu basia mona tsisi ko ayi mbu wumina bambeni ziawu.
54 Kanjalo wabaletha emngceleni welizwe lakhe elingcwele, elizweni lamaqaqa ayelithethe ngesandla sakhe sokunene.
Buna wuba kotisa mu yenda tsi andi yinlongo; ku tsi yi mongo wowo koko kuandi ku lubakala kukibakila.
55 Wazixotsha izizwe phambi kwabo wabahlukanisela ilizwe lazo laba yilifa; wahlalisa izizwana zako-Israyeli emizini yazo.
Wukuka makanda ku ntualꞌawu; ayi wuba kabudila mintoto miawu banga kiuka wuvuandisa makanda ma Iseli mu zinzo ziawu.
56 Kodwa bamlinga uNkulunkulu, bamhlamukela oPhezukonke; kabayigcinanga imilayo yakhe.
Vayi batota Nzambi ayi batinguna Nzambi Yizangama; basia keba zinzengolo ziandi ko.
57 Njengabokhokho babo babengathembekanga bengakholwa, ungeke wathemba njengedandili elenziwe kubi.
Banga madisa mawu basia ba bafuana ko ayi basia ba minu ko balendi tudulu diana ko banga wuvenga.
58 Bamvusa ulaka ngezindawo zabo eziphezulu; baqubula ubukhwele bakhe ngezithombe zabo.
Bamfuemisa mu bibuangu biawu bizangama balemisa kiphala kiandi mu bitumba biawu
59 Wathi uNkulunkulu ngokukuzwa lokho, wathukuthela kakhulu; wamlahla qobo lokumlahla u-Israyeli.
Nzambi bu kawa, buna wufuema ngolo wutumbu loza mvimba Iseli.
60 Walidela ithabanikeli lakhe eShilo, ithente ayelakhile phakathi kwabantu.
Wuyekula, nzo ngoto mbuabununu yi Silo; nzo yoyo mu kakivuandisa;
61 Umphongolo wakhe wamandla wawusa ekuthunjweni, inkazimulo yakhe ezandleni zesitha.
Wufidisa kesi yi lulendo luandi mu buvika, ayi kiezila kiandi mu mioko mi mbeni.
62 Abantu bakhe wabanikela ukudliwa yinkemba; wayethukuthele kakhulu ngelifa lakhe.
Wuyekula batu bandi mu sabala, wufuemina ngolo kiuka kiandi.
63 Umlilo waziqeda izinsizwa zabo, izintombi zabo zaswela izingoma zomtshado;
Mbazu yi zinisa bamatoko mawu, ayi bandumba ziawu ziozi zisia zaba babakala ko zisia baka ko minkunga mi makuela ko.
64 abaphristi babo babulawa ngenkemba, abafelokazi babo behluleka ukulila.
Zinganga ziawu zinzambi zimana fuila mu sabala ayi mafuola mawu masia baka bu didila ko.
65 INkosi yasivuka njengokade esebuthongweni, njengomuntu ephaphama ekudakweni yiwayini.
Buna Yave wukotuka banga mutu wuba wuleka, banga mutu kotukidi mu diambu di vinu kakololo.
66 Wazitshaya zahlehla izitha zakhe; waziyangisa okungapheliyo.
Wuvutula bambeni bandi ku manima; wuzifuisa zitsoni ka zisukanga ko.
67 Khonapho-ke wawakhalala amathente kaJosefa, akaze asikhetha isizwana sika-Efrayimi;
Buna wuloza zinzo zi ngoto zi Zozefi, kasia sobula ko dikanda di Efalayimi;
68 kodwa wakhetha isizwana sikaJuda, iNtaba iZiyoni ayeyithanda.
Vayi wusobula dikanda di Yuda, mongo wu Sioni, wowo kazola.
69 Wakha indlu yakhe engcwele njengeziqongo, njengomhlaba awumisela ingunaphakade.
Wutunga buangu kiandi kinlongo banga bibuangu bizangama, banga ntoto wowo kakubika mu zithangu zioso zi kazimani.
70 Wakhetha uDavida inceku yakhe wamthatha ezilugwini zezimvu;
Wusobula Davidi kisadi kiandi ayi wumbonga mu ziphangu zi mamemi,
71 wamsusa ekweluseni izimvu wamletha ukuba ngumelusi wabantu bakhe uJakhobe, baka-Israyeli ilifa lakhe.
Wumbongila vana vaba mamemi momo kaba sunga mu diambu di kaba nsungi wu batu bandi Yakobi, wu Iseli kiuka kiandi.
72 Njalo uDavida wabelusa ngobuqotho benhliziyo; wabakhokhela ngesandla sobungcitshi.
Buna Davidi wuba nsungi awu mu ntima wufuana ayi wuba diatisila mu koko ku diela.
