UmTshumayeli 11
1 Phosela isinkwa sakho phezu kobuso bamanzi, ngoba uzasithola emva kwensuku ezinengi.
E HOOLEI i kau bereua maluna iho o ka wai; no ka mea, a hala na la he nui loa, e loaa hou mai no ia ia oe.
2 Nika isabelo kwabayisikhombisa, yebo, lakwabayisificaminwembili, ngoba kawazi ukuthi bubi bani obuzakuba emhlabeni.
E puunaue aku na na mea ehiku, a me na mea ewalu paha; no ka mea, aole oe i ike i ka hewa e hiki mai ana maluna o ka honua.
3 Uba amayezi egcwele izulu, ayalithululela emhlabeni; uba-ke isihlahla siwela ngeningizimu kumbe ngenyakatho, endaweni lapho isihlahla esiwela khona sizakuba khonapho.
Ina i piha na ao i ka ua, alaila ua haule mai maluna o ka honua; a ina e hina ka laau i ke kukulu hema, a i ke kukulu akau paha, ma kahi a ka laau e hina ai, malaila auanei no ia.
4 Onanzelela umoya kayikuhlanyela, lalowo okhangela amayezi kayikuvuna.
O ka mea i manao nui i ka makani. aole ia e kanu, a o ka mea i manao nui i na ao, aole ia e ohi.
5 Njengoba ungazi ukuthi iyini indlela yomoya, akhula njani amathambo esiswini sokhulelweyo, ngokunjalo kawazi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu owenza konke.
Me kou ike ole ana i ka aoao o ka uhane, a me na iwi iloko o ka opu o ka wahine hapai; pela no, aole oe i ike i ka hana a ke Akua, ka mea nana i hana na mea a pau.
6 Hlanyela inhlanyelo yakho ekuseni, lantambama ungaphumuzi isandla sakho; ngoba kawazi ukuthi yiyiphi ezaphumelela, le kumbe leyana, loba zombili zizakuba zinhle ngokufananayo.
I ke kakahiaka, e lulu oe i kau hua, a i ke ahiahi, aole hoi e hoomaha kou mau lima, no ka mea, aole oe i ike i ka mea maikai o laua, o kela paha, o keia paha, ua maikai pu paha laua.
7 Sibili, ukukhanya kumnandi; njalo kuhle emehlweni ukubona ilanga.
Oia hoi, ua oluolu ka malamalama, a he mea maikai no hoi i na maka ke ike i ka la.
8 Kodwa uba umuntu ephila iminyaka eminengi, kathokoze ngayo yonke; kodwa kakhumbule lensuku zomnyama, ngoba zizakuba zinengi. Konke okuzayo kuyize.
Aka, ina e ola kekahi kanaka i na makahiki he nui wale, a olioli no hoi ia lakou a pau, e pono ia ia ke hoomanao i na la o ka pouli, no ka mea, ua nui no lakou. O na mea a pau e hiki mai ana, he lapuwale ia.
9 Thokoza, jaha, ebutsheni bakho, lenhliziyo yakho kayikuthokozise ensukwini zobutsha bakho, uhambe endleleni zenhliziyo yakho lekuboneni kwamehlo akho. Kodwa yazi ukuthi ngenxa yazo zonke izinto uNkulunkulu uzakuletha kusahlulelo.
E ke kanaka ui, e olioli oe i kou wa ui, a e hoohauoli kou naau ia oe iho i kou mau la opiopio, a e hele ma na aoao o kou naau iho, a ma ka ike ana o kou mau maka; aka hoi, e ike pono oe, e hookomo ana ke Akua ia oe iloko o ka hookolokoloia, no keia mau mea a pau.
10 Ngakho susa ukudabuka enhliziyweni yakho, ukhuphe ububi enyameni yakho, ngoba ubutsha lobujaha buyize.
No ia mea, e hookaawale aku oe i ke kaumaha mai kou naau aku, a me ka ino mai kou kino aku; no ka mea, o ka wa opiopio, a me ka wa ui, he mea lapuwale ia.
