< Amahubo 79 >
1 Ihubo lika-Asafi Oh Nkulunkulu, izizwe sezilingenele ilifa lakho; sezilingcolisile ithempeli lakho eligcwele, iJerusalema isibhidliziwe yaba luthuli.
Ko e Saame ʻa ʻAsafi. ʻE ʻOtua, kuo hoko ʻae hiteni ki ho tofiʻa; kuo nau fakaʻuliʻi ho faletapu māʻoniʻoni; kuo nau fakalala ʻa Selūsalema ke tafungofunga ia.
2 Izidumbu zezinceku zakho sebezilahlile ukuba yikudla kwezinyoni zasemoyeni, inyama yabangcwele bakho yaba yikudla kwezilo zelizwe.
Kuo nau ʻange ʻae sino mate ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ko e meʻakai ki he manupuna ʻoe langi, mo e kakano ʻo hoʻo kakai māʻoniʻoni ki he fanga manu ʻoe fonua.
3 Balichithile igazi njengamanzi bahonqolozela ngalo iJerusalema, kasekho ozangcwaba abafileyo.
Kuo nau lilingi honau toto ʻo hangē ko e vai ʻo takatakai ʻi Selūsalema; pea naʻe ʻikai ha niʻihi ke tanu ʻakinautolu.
4 Siyizinto zokuchothozwa kubomakhelwane bethu, inhlekisa lokweyiswa yibo bonke esihlala labo.
Kuo mau hoko ko e manukiʻanga ʻo homau ngaahi kaungāʻapi, ko e meʻa manuki mo e taukaeʻanga ʻokinautolu ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻiate kimautolu.
5 Koze kube nini, Oh Thixo? Uzazonda kuze kube nininini na? Koze kube nini ubukhwele bakho butshisa njengomlilo na?
ʻE Sihova, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa? Te ke houhau ʻo taʻengata? pea vela ho fuaʻa ʻo hangē ko e afi?
6 Thululela intukuthelo yakho kulezozizwe ezingakunanziyo, ezingalibiziyo ibizo lakho
Ke ke lilingi ho houhau ki he hiteni ʻoku teʻeki ai ʻilo koe, pea mo e ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoku teʻeki ai ui ki ho huafa.
7 ngoba zimchithile uJakhobe zalibhidliza ilizwe lakibo.
He kuo nau kai ʻo ʻosi ʻa Sēkope, ʻo maumauʻi ke lala hono nofoʻanga.
8 Ungawethesi thina umlandu wabokhokho; sengathi isihawu sakho singeza masinyane ukuzasivikela, ngoba sesisebunzimeni obubi.
ʻoua naʻa ke fakamanatu kiate kimautolu ʻemau ngaahi muʻaki hia: tuku ke tokoni vave ʻakimautolu ʻe hoʻo ʻaloʻofa ongongofua: he kuo ʻohifo ki lalo ʻaupito ʻakimautolu.
9 Sisize, awu Nkulunkulu Msindisi wethu, ngenxa yobukhosi bebizo lakho; sikhulule uthethelele izono zethu, ngenxa yebizo lakho.
ʻE ʻOtua ko homau fakamoʻui, ke ke tokoni ʻakimautolu, koeʻuhi ko e ongoongolelei ʻo ho huafa: pea fakahaofi ʻakimautolu, ʻo fakamaʻa ke ʻosi ʻemau ngaahi angahala, koeʻuhi ko ho huafa.
10 Kungani izizwe zisithi, “Ungaphi uNkulunkulu wabo?” Yenza emehlweni ethu, kwaziwe phakathi kwezizwe ukuthi uyaliphindisela igazi lezinceku zakho elachithwayo.
Koeʻumaʻā ʻae lea pehē mai ʻe he hiteni, “Ko e fē honau ʻOtua?” Tuku ke ʻilo ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe hiteni ʻi homau ʻao ʻi he totongi ʻoe toto ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻaia kuo huaʻi.
11 Sengathi ukububula kwezibotshwa kungafinyelela kuwe; ngamandla engalo yakho sindisa labo abagwetshelwe ukufa.
Tuku ke aʻu ki ho ʻao ʻae ngaahi mafulu ʻae kau nofo pōpula; ke ke fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu kuo tuʻutuʻuni ke mate ʻo fakatatau mo hono lahi ʻo hoʻo māfimafi.
12 Baphindisele kasikhombisa omakhelwane bethu ngezinhlamba ababekuchaphaza ngazo, Thixo.
ʻE ʻEiki, ke ke ʻange ke liunga fitu ki he fatafata ʻo homau kaungāʻapi ʻenau lauʻikovi, ʻaia naʻa nau lauʻikoviʻi ʻaki koe.
13 Kuzakuthi-ke thina abantu bakho, izimvu zedlelo lakho, sikudumise laphakade; kusuka esizukulwaneni kusiya esizukulwaneni sizabalisa udumo lwakho.
Pea ko kimautolu ko ho kakai mo e fanga sipi ʻo hoʻo ngoue, temau ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi kiate koe ʻo taʻengata: temau fakahā atu ho ongoongolelei ki he toʻutangata kotoa pē.
