1 Buthanani ndawonye, buthanani ndawonye, wena sizwe esiyangisayo,
Yeirai ka panuek hoeh e miphunnaw namahoima kâpouk awh haw.
2 isikhathi esimisiweyo singakafiki losuku ludlule njengamakhoba, ukuthukuthela okwesabekayo kukaThixo kungakafiki kuwe, usuku lolaka lukaThixo lungakafiki kuwe.
A dei e patetlah na ka pouk awh hoeh, nangmae atueng teh vaikong patetlah a palek hoehnahlan, BAWIPA lungkhueknae ni nangmae lathueng a pha hoehnahlan namahoima kâpouk awh haw.
3 Dingani uThixo, lonke lina abathobekileyo belizwe, lina elenza lokho akulayayo. Dingani ukulunga, dingani ukuthobeka; mhlawumbe lingavikelwa ngosuku lwentukuthelo kaThixo.
A lung kârahnoum niteh, lawk ka tarawi e khocanaw pueng Cathut teh tawng awh haw. Lannae hoi kârahnoumnae hai tawng awh haw. BAWIPA lungkhueknae hnin nah kâhro nahan na hmawt awh mahoeh.
4 IGaza izadelwa le-Ashikheloni isale isingamanxiwa. Abantu base-Ashidodi bazaxotshwa emini, le-Ekroni isitshulwe.
Gaza kho tâco takhai vaiteh, Ashkelon teh kingdi han. Kanîthun vah Ashdodnaw pâlei vaiteh, Ekron kho hai raphoe lah ao han.
5 Maye kini lina elihlala ngasolwandle, lina sizwe samaKherethi; ilizwi likaThixo limelana lani, wena Khenani, lizwe lamaFilistiya. “Ngizakutshabalalisa, njalo kakho ozasala.”
Talî rai lah kaawm e Kereth miphunnaw, nangmouh teh Cathut lawk hah na taran awh. Filistin onae Kanaan ram, apihai o hoeh nahanlah ka raphoe han.
6 Ilizwe elingasolwandle lizakuba yindawo yabelusi lezibaya zezimvu.
Talîpui rai teh, tu kakhoumnaw ni kâkawknae hmuen lah ao han.
7 Ilizwe lizakuba ngelabaseleyo abendlu kaJuda; bazathola amadlelo khona. Kusihlwa bazalala phansi ezindlini zase-Ashikheloni. UThixo uNkulunkulu wabo uzabalondoloza; uzabenza baphumelele futhi.
Talîpui rai e hmuen teh ka cawi e Judahnaw ni ao nah vaiteh kâkawknae lah ao han. Tangmin lah Ashkelon kho dawk a roe awh han. Ahnimae BAWIPA Cathut teh ahnimouh koe tho vaiteh, hawinae bout a hmu awh han.
8 “Ngizizwile izithuko zeMowabi lokuchothoza kwama-Amoni, abathuka abantu bami besongela lelizwe labo.
Moabnaw hoi Amonnaw ni ka miphun a dudam awh teh a kâoup sin e lawk ka thai toe.
9 Ngakho ngeqiniso elinjengoba ngikhona,” kutsho uThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, “impela iMowabi izakuba njengeSodoma, ama-Amoni abe njengeGomora, indawo yokhula lemigodi yetshwayi, ilizwe elichithekileyo nini lanini. Abaseleyo babantu bami bazabaphanga; abaphephileyo babantu bami bazathatha ilizwe labo.”
Hatdawkvah Isarel Cathut ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei e teh Moab ram hoi Amon ram teh Sodom hoi Komorah kho patetlah pâkhing ka pâw e hmuen, palawi thawng nahanelah tai e talai, a yungyoe ka rawk e ram lah ao teh, kacawie ka tami, ka miphunnaw hah a tuk awh vaiteh a man awh han.
10 Lokhu yikho abazakuthola kungumvuzo wokuzigqaja kwabo, ngenxa yokuthuka lokuklolodela abantu bakaThixo uSomandla.
Ahnimanaw teh a lung kalen e tami lah ao awh teh kâoup laihoi dudam awh vaiteh, ransahu BAWIPA e taminaw koe hottelah a sak awh han.
11 UThixo uzakwesabeka kubo lapho esetshabalalisa bonke onkulunkulu belizwe. Izizwe ezisemakhunjini wonke zizamkhonza, ngulowo elizweni lakhe.
Yungyoe Cathut teh ahnimouh hanelah taki kawi lah ao teh talai Cathutnaw hah cungkeihoehe lah a coung sak han. Alouke miphunnaw ni amamae hmuen koehoi lengkaleng a bawk awh han.
12 “Lani futhi, lina maKhushi lizabulawa ngenkemba yami.”
Oe Kush khocanaw nangmouh hai ka tahloi hoi na due awh han.
13 Uzakwelulela isandla sakhe enyakatho achithe i-Asiriya, atshiye iNiniva itshabalele ngokupheleleyo njalo yome njengenkangala.
Atunglae naw hai ka tuk vaiteh Assiria ram hai ka raphoe han. Nineveh khopui hah tami kingkadi e lah ka hruek vaiteh a yawn patetlah ka ke sak han.
14 Imihlambi yezimvu leyenkomo izalala phansi khonapho, lezidalwa zezinhlobo zonke. Isikhova senkangala lomandukulo kuzahlala ensikeni zakhe. Ukukhala kwazo kuzezwakala emawindini, imfucuza izakuba eminyango, imijabo yemisedari ichayeke.
Khopui lungui vah tuhunaw hoi Jentelnaw pueng teh a i awh han. Bukbu hoi basairek ni takhang hoi hlalangaw koehoi a cai awh han. Thonaw koe tami kingdi vaiteh sidarkung teh a emkâlo han.
15 Leli lidolobho elingakhathaliyo elalizihlalele livikelekile. Lazitshela lathi: “Ngiyimi, kakho omunye ngaphandle kwami.” Yeka ukuchitheka eseliyikho, isikhundla sezinyamazana zeganga! Bonke abadlula kulo bahleka usulu balikhombe ngeminwe.
Hote khopui ni kai ka o. Kai hloilah api awm hoeh, tâluengnae awm hoeh, a lung kahawi e khopui lah ka o. Atuteh raphoe e lah, sarang onae kho lah ao toe. Ka cet e pueng ni hai dudam lawk dei awh vaiteh a kut a palik sin awh han.
