U-Amosi 2
1 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngenxa yeziphambeko ezintathu zikaMowabi, langenxa yezine, kangiyikuphambula isijeziso sabo, ngoba watshisa amathambo enkosi yeEdoma aba yikalaga.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Koeʻuhi ko e talangataʻa ʻe tolu ʻa Moape, mo hono fā, ʻe ʻikai te u fakaafe [hono tautea ʻo ia]; he naʻa ne taʻo ʻae ngaahi hui ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻItomi ke lahe:
2 Ngakho ngizathumela umlilo koMowabi, ozaqeda izigodlo zeKeriyothi, uMowabi afele phakathi kokuxokozela, ngokumemeza, ngokukhala kophondo.
Ka te u fekau ʻae afi ki Moape, pea te ne kai ʻo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi fale fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻo Kiliote: pea ʻe mate ʻa Moape ʻi he maveuveu, mo e kaila, pea mo e ongo ʻoe meʻalea:
3 Ngiqume umahluleli asuke phakathi kwakhe, ngibulale zonke iziphathamandla zakhe kanye laye, itsho iNkosi.
Pea te u motuhi ʻae fakamaau mei honau haʻohaʻonga, pea tāmateʻi ʻae houʻeiki kotoa pē mo ia:” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.”
4 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngenxa yeziphambeko ezintathu zakoJuda, langenxa yezine, kangiyikuphambula isijeziso sabo, ngoba bawalile umlayo weNkosi, kabagcinanga izimiso zayo, lamanga abo abaduhisile, oyise abawalandelayo.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; “Koeʻuhi ko e talangataʻa ʻe tolu ʻa Siuta, pea mo hono fā, ʻe ʻikai te u fakaafe hono [tautea ʻo ia]; he kuo nau vaʻinga ʻaki ʻae fono ʻa Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau tauhi ʻene ngaahi fekau, pea naʻa nau hē ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau loi, ʻaia naʻe muimui ki ai ʻenau ngaahi tamai:
5 Ngakho ngizathumela umlilo koJuda, futhi uzaqeda izigodlo zeJerusalema.
Ka te u fekau ʻae afi ki Siuta, pea te ne kai ʻo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi fale fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻo Selūsalema.”
6 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngenxa yeziphambeko ezintathu zakoIsrayeli, langenxa yezine, kangiyikuphambula isijeziso sabo, ngoba bathengisa olungileyo ngesiliva, loswelayo ngamanyathela amabili,
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; “Koeʻuhi ko e talangataʻa ʻe tolu ʻa ʻIsileli, pea mo hono fā, ʻe ʻikai te u fakaafe [hono tautea ʻo ia]; he kuo nau fakatau ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni ki he siliva, pea mo e kakai masiva ʻaki ha topuvaʻe;
7 abaphefuzelela uthuli lomhlaba oluphezu kwekhanda labayanga, baphambukisa indlela yabamnene; njalo umuntu loyise baya entombini, ukuze bangcolise ibizo lami elingcwele.
ʻAia ʻoku feinga ke ʻai ʻae efu ʻoe kelekele ʻi he ʻulu ʻoe kakai masiva, pea ʻoku fakahēʻi ʻae hala ʻoe angamalū: pea ko e tangata mo ʻene tamai ʻoku na mohe ki he fefine pe taha, ke fakaongokovi hoku huafa tāpuhā:
8 Bacambalale ezembathweni zesibambiso eceleni kwalelo lalelo ilathi, banathe iwayini labalahliweyo endlini yabonkulunkulu babo.
Pea ʻoku nau tokoto ʻi he ngaahi kofu ʻoku tuku ko e fakamoʻoni ki he totongi ʻi he veʻe feilaulauʻanga kotoa pē, pea ʻoku nau inu ʻae uaine ʻoe halaia ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau tamapua.
9 Kanti mina ngachitha umAmori phambi kwabo, obude bakhe babunjengobude bamasedari, eqine njengama-okhi; kodwa ngachitha isithelo sakhe ngaphezulu, lempande zakhe ngaphansi.
Ka naʻaku fakaʻauha ʻae kakai ʻAmoli ʻi honau ʻao, ʻaia naʻe māʻolunga hangē ko e sita, pea naʻe mālohi hangē ko e oke; ka naʻaku fakaʻauha hono fua mei ʻolunga, pea mo hono aka ʻi lalo.
10 Futhi mina ngalenyusa elizweni leGibhithe, ngalikhokhela enkangala iminyaka engamatshumi amane, ukuze lidle ilifa lelizwe lomAmori.
Pea naʻaku ʻomi foki ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea naʻaku tataki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he toafa ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, ke maʻu ʻae fonua ʻoe kakai ʻAmoli.
11 Ngavusa abanye emadodaneni enu babe ngabaprofethi, labanye emajaheni enu babe ngamaNaziri. Kakunjalo yini, lina bantwana bakoIsrayeli? itsho iNkosi.
Pea naʻaku tuʻutuʻuni mei ho ngaahi foha ʻae kau palōfita, pea mei hoʻo kau talavou ʻae kakai naʻe fakamavahe. ʻIkai ʻoku pehē pe, ʻe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli?” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
12 Kodwa lawanathisa amaNaziri iwayini, lalaya abaprofethi lisithi: Lingaprofethi.
“Ka naʻa mou ʻatu ʻae uaine ke inu ʻe he kau Fakamavahe; pea ne mou fekau ʻae kau palōfita, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOua naʻa kikite.’
13 Khangelani, ngizalicindezela phansi, njengenqola igcwele izithungo icindezela.
Vakai, ʻoku ou taʻomia ʻiate kimoutolu, hangē ko e saliote ʻi he ngaahi ʻū koane.
14 Ngakho isiphephelo sizabhubha kolejubane, lolamandla kayikuqinisa amandla akhe, leqhawe kaliyikukhulula impilo yalo.
Ko ia ʻe mole ʻae faʻa lele mei he veʻe vave, pea ko e mālohi ʻe ʻikai te ne fakamālohiʻi ʻe ia ia; pea ʻe ʻikai fakahaofi ʻae mālohi ʻe ia ia:
15 Lophethe idandili kayikuma, lolenyawo ezilula kayikuzikhulula, logade ibhiza kayikukhulula impilo yakhe.
Pea ʻe ʻikai tuʻu ia ʻoku ne teke ʻae kaufana; pea ʻe ʻikai fakahaofi ʻae veʻe vave ʻe ia ia: pea ko ia ʻoku heka hoosi ʻe ʻikai fakahaofi ʻe ia ia.
16 Lolenhliziyo eqinileyo phakathi kwamaqhawe uzabaleka eze ngalolosuku, itsho iNkosi.
Pea ko ia ʻoku lototoʻa ʻi he kau mālohi te ne hola telefua ʻi he ʻaho ko ia,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
