< UHezekheli 34 >
1 Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi lisithi:
Pea naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
2 Ndodana yomuntu, profetha umelene labelusi bakoIsrayeli, profetha uthi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova kubelusi: Maye kubelusi bakoIsrayeli abazelusayo bona! Abelusi bebengayikuzelusa izimvu yini?
“Foha ʻoe tangata, kikite ki he kau tauhi ʻo ʻIsileli, kikite, pea ke pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ki he ngaahi tauhi; Malaʻia ki he kau tauhi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻoku nau fafanga pe ʻakinautolu! ʻIkai ʻoku totonu ke fafanga ʻe he tauhi ʻa ʻene fanga sipi?
3 Lidla amanono, lizigqokise ngoboya, lihlabe ezinonileyo, umhlambi kaliwelusi.
ʻOku kai ʻekimoutolu ʻae ngako, pea ʻoku mou kofuʻaki ʻae fulufuluʻi sipi, ʻoku mou tāmateʻi ia ʻaia ʻoku sino, ka ʻoku ʻikai te mou fafanga ʻae fanga sipi.
4 Ezibuthakathaka kaliziqinisanga, lezigulayo kalizelaphanga, lezephukileyo kalizibophanga, lebezixotshiwe kalizibuyisanga, lebezilahlekile kalizidinganga; kodwa ngamandla langesihluku lizibusile.
Naʻe ʻikai te mou fakamālohi ʻae vaivai, pea naʻe ʻikai te mou faitoʻo ki he mahaki, pe te mou nonoʻo ʻaia naʻe mafesi, pe te mou toe kumi mai ʻaia naʻe fakahēʻi, pe te mou kumi ʻaia naʻe mole, ka kuo mou pule mālohi mo fai fakamamahi ki ai.
5 Ngokunjalo zahlakazeka ngoba kungelamelusi; zaba yikudla kuzo zonke izilo zeganga, lapho zihlakazekile.
Pea naʻe fakahēʻi ʻakinautolu, koeʻuhi ʻi he ʻikai ha tauhi: pea naʻa nau hoko ko e meʻakai ki he fanga manu fekai kotoa pē ʻoe vao, ʻi heʻenau movetevete.
6 Izimvu zami zazulazula kuzo zonke izintaba, laphezu kwalo lonke uqaqa oluphakemeyo; yebo umhlambi wami wawuhlakazeke phezu kobuso bonke bomhlaba, njalo kungekho ozidingayo, kungekho ozibhudulayo.
Naʻe ʻalu hēhē pe ʻa ʻeku fanga sipi ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga kotoa pē, pea ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻolunga kotoa pē: ʻio, naʻe fakahēʻi ʻeku fanga sipi ki he funga ʻo māmani kotoa pē, pea naʻe ʻikai hakule pe kumi ki ai ha taha.
7 Ngakho, lina belusi, zwanini ilizwi leNkosi.
“Ko ia, ʻE kau tauhi, fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova.
8 Kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehova, isibili, ngoba umhlambi wami usube yimpango, lomhlambi wami usube yikudla kwaso sonke isilo seganga, ngoba kungelamelusi, labelusi bami bengazidinganga izimvu zami, kodwa abelusi bezelusile bona, bengazelusanga izimvu zami;
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ko au ʻoku ou moʻui, pea ko e moʻoni, koeʻuhi kuo hoko ʻa ʻeku fanga sipi ko e fakamālohia, pea kuo hoko ia ko e meʻakai ki he fanga manu kotoa pē ʻoe vao, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai ha tauhi, pea naʻe ʻikai kumi ʻe heʻeku kau tauhi ki heʻeku fanga sipi, pea naʻe kai pe ʻe heʻeku kau tauhi, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau fafanga ʻa ʻeku fanga sipi;
9 ngakho, lina belusi, zwanini ilizwi leNkosi.
Ko ia, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau tauhi, fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova;
10 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngimelane labelusi, ngizabiza umhlambi wami esandleni sabo, ngibenze bayekele ukwelusa umhlambi, ukuthi abelusi bangabuyi bazeluse bona; ngiwophule umhlambi wami emlonyeni wabo, ukuze ungabi yikudla kwabo.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai, ʻoku ou tuʻu au ki he kau tauhi pea te u ʻeke ʻa ʻeku fanga sipi mei honau nima pea te u fekau ke tuku ʻenau fafanga ʻae fanga sipi: pea ʻe ʻikai toe kai ʻe he kau tauhi ʻiate kinautolu; he te u fakamoʻui ʻeku fanga sipi mei honau ngutu, ke ʻoua naʻa nau kei meʻakai ʻaki ʻakinautolu.
11 Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, mina, ngitsho mina ngizafuna izimvu zami, ngizidinge.
“He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai ko au, ʻio, ko au, te u hakule ʻa ʻeku fanga sipi, mo kumi ki ai.
12 Njengomalusi edinga umhlambi wakhe ngosuku ephakathi kwezimvu zakhe ezihlakazekileyo, ngokunjalo ngizadinga izimvu zami, ngizophule kuzo zonke izindawo lapho ezihlakazekele khona ngosuku lweyezi lolomnyama.
ʻO hangē ko e kumi ʻe he tauhi ʻa ʻene fanga sipi, ʻi he ʻaho ʻoku ne ʻalu atu ai ki he fanga sipi kuo movetevete; ʻe pehē ʻa ʻeku kumi mai ʻa ʻeku fanga sipi, mo ʻeku fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu mei he potu kotoa pē kuo nau hē ki ai ʻi he ʻaho ʻalotāmaki mo fakapoʻupoʻuli.
13 Ngizazikhupha ebantwini, ngizibuthe emazweni, ngizise elizweni lazo, ngizeluse phezu kwezintaba zakoIsrayeli ngasemifuleni lakuzo zonke indawo zokuhlala zelizwe.
Pea te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he kakai, mo tānaki ʻakinautolu mei he ngaahi fonua, pea ʻe ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki honau fonua ʻonautolu, pea ʻe fafanga ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he veʻe vaitafe, pea mo e ngaahi potu kakai ʻoe fonua.
14 Ngizazelusa edlelweni elivundileyo, lesibaya sazo sizakuba sezintabeni eziphakemeyo zakoIsrayeli. Zizalala lapho esibayeni esihle, zidle edlelweni elihle ezintabeni zakoIsrayeli.
Te u fafanga ʻakinautolu ʻi he potu lau maʻuiʻui, pea ʻe ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga māʻolunga ʻo ʻIsileli ʻa honau lotoʻā: te nau tokoto ai ʻi he lotoʻā lelei, pea te nau kai ʻi he potu lau maʻuiʻui ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻIsileli.
15 Mina ngizawelusa umhlambi wami, mina ngiwulalise phansi, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
Te u fafanga ʻa ʻeku fanga sipi, pea te u fakatokoto ʻakinautolu ki lalo, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
16 Ngizadinga ezilahlekileyo, ngibuyise ezixotshiweyo, ngibophe ezephukileyo, ngiqinise ezigulayo; kodwa ezinonileyo leziqinileyo ngizazibhubhisa, ngizeluse ngesahlulelo.
Te u kumi kiate ia naʻe mole, pea te u toe ʻomi ʻaia naʻe fakahēʻi atu, te u nonoʻo ʻaia naʻe mafesi, pea te u fakamālohi ʻaia naʻe vaivai: pea te u tāmateʻi ʻaia ʻoku sino mo mālohi; te u fafanga ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae tautea.
17 Lina-ke, mhlambi wami, itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngizakwahlulela phakathi kwemvu lemvu, phakathi kwezinqama lezimpongo.
Pea koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ʻa ʻeku fanga sipi, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai te u fili vakavakai ki he manu mo e manu, ki he fanga sipitangata, mo e fanga kosi tangata.
18 Kuyinto encane kini yini ukuthi lidle edlelweni elihle, linyathelele phansi ngenyawo zenu insali yamadlelo enu, lokuthi linathe amanzi acengekileyo, kodwa lidunge aseleyo ngenyawo zenu?
Ko e meʻa siʻi koā ia kiate kimoutolu ke mou kai ke ʻosi ʻae potu lau maʻuiʻui, pea mou toe malaki hifo ai ʻi homou lalo vaʻe ʻa hono toe ʻoe potu ʻoku fafanga ai kimoutolu? Pea kuo mou inu mei he ngaahi vai loloto, ka ko hono toe kuo mou fakaʻuliʻi ʻaki homou vaʻe?
19 Kodwa umhlambi wami udla lokhu elikunyathele ngenyawo zenu, wanatha lokho elikudunge ngenyawo zenu.
Pea ko ʻeku fanga sipi, ʻoku kai ʻekinautolu mei he meʻa kuo mou malaki ʻaki homou vaʻe; pea ʻoku nau inu mei he meʻa kuo fakaʻuliʻi ʻaki homou vaʻe.
20 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova kuzo: Khangelani, mina, ngitsho mina ngizakwahlulela phakathi kwezimvu ezinonileyo lezimvu ezicakileyo.
“Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua kiate kinautolu; Vakai, ko au, ʻio, ko au, te u fili vakavakai ki he manu ʻoku sino mo e manu ʻoku tutue.
21 Ngoba lisunduza ngomhlubulo langehlombe, lihlabe zonke ezigulayo ngezimpondo zenu, lize lizihlakazele ngaphandle;
Koeʻuhi kuo mou fetuotuai pea kuo mou feteketekeʻi ʻae kau vaivai ʻaki homou nifo pea ko ia kuo nau hē ai ke mamaʻo;
22 ngakho ngizasindisa umhlambi wami, njalo kawusayikuba yimpango; ngahlulele phakathi kwemvu lemvu.
Ko ia ia te u fakamoʻui ai ʻeku fanga sipi, pea ʻe ʻikai toe tulia ʻakinautolu; pea te u fili vakavakai ki he manu mo e manu.
23 Ngimise umelusi oyedwa phezu kwazo, azeluse, inceku yami uDavida; yena uzazelusa, yena abe ngumelusi wazo.
Pea te u fokotuʻu ha tauhi pe taha kiate kinautolu, pea te ne fafanga kinautolu, ʻio, ʻa ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita: ko ia ia te ne fafanga ʻakinautolu, pea ko ia ia te ne tauhi kiate kinautolu.
24 Mina-ke Nkosi ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wazo, lenceku yami uDavida ibe yisiphathamandla phakathi kwazo. Mina Nkosi ngikhulumile.
Pea ko au Sihova, te u hoko ko honau ʻOtua; pea ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita ko e ʻeiki ʻiate kinautolu; ko au Sihova, kuo u lea ki ai.
25 Njalo ngizakwenza lazo isivumelwano sokuthula, ngenze izilo ezimbi ziphele elizweni; njalo zizahlala zivikelekile enkangala, zilale emahlathini.
Pea te nau fai mo au ʻae fuakava ke melino, pea te u fakaʻosi ʻae fanga manu fekai mei he fonua; pea te nau nofo lelei pe ʻi he toafa, pea nau mohe ʻi he ngaahi vao.
26 Futhi ngizakwenza zona lezindawo ezihanqe uqaqa lwami kube yisibusiso; ngenze umkhizo wehle ngesikhathi sawo, kuzakuba lemikhizo yesibusiso.
Pea te u ngaohi ʻakinautolu pea mo e ngaahi potu ʻoku tuʻu takatakai ʻi hoku moʻunga, ko e monūʻiaʻanga; pea te u fakatō hifo ʻae ʻuha ʻi hono ʻaho totonu; ʻe ai ʻae ʻuha lolo ʻoe tāpuaki.
27 Lesihlahla sasendle sizathela izithelo zaso, lomhlaba uveze isivuno sawo; njalo zizakuba ngezivikelekileyo elizweni lazo, zazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi, nxa sengephule izikeyi zejogwe lazo, ngizophule esandleni salabo abazisebenzisayo.
Pea ʻe tupu mei he ʻakau ʻoe ngoue ʻa hono fua, pea ʻe tuku mai ʻe he kelekele ʻa hono tupu, pea te nau malu pe ʻi honau fonua, mo nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova, ʻo kau ka motuhi ʻae nonoʻo ʻo honau haʻamonga, mo fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻonautolu naʻe fakamālohia ʻakinautolu.
28 Njalo kazisayikuba yimpango yabezizwe, njalo izilo zelizwe kazisayikuzidla; kodwa zizahlala zivikelekile, njalo kakukho okungazethusa.
Pea ʻe ʻikai toe tulia ʻakinautolu ʻe he hiteni, pea ʻe ʻikai toe keina ʻakinautolu ʻe he fanga manu ʻoe fonua; ka ʻe malu pe ʻenau nofo, pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha te ne faʻa fakamanaʻi ʻakinautolu.
29 Njalo ngizazivusela isilimo esilebizo njalo kazisayikususwa yindlala elizweni, kazisayikuthwala ihlazo labezizwe.
Pea te u fakatupu maʻanautolu ʻae ʻakau ke ongoongolelei, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau toe mate fiekaia ʻi he fonua, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau toe fua ʻae mā ʻoe hiteni ʻo taʻengata.
30 Ngalokho zizakwazi ukuthi mina Nkosi, uNkulunkulu wazo, ngilazo, lokuthi zona, indlu kaIsrayeli, zingabantu bami, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
ʻE pehē ʻa ʻenau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, ʻoku ou ʻiate kinautolu; pea ko kinautolu, ʻio, ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ko hoku kakai ʻakinautolu, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
31 Lina-ke, mhlambi wami, mhlambi wedlelo lami, lingabantu; mina nginguNkulunkulu wenu, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
“Pea ko kimoutolu ʻa ʻeku fanga sipi, ʻae fanga sipi ʻoku ou tauhi, ko e kau tangata ʻakimoutolu, pea ko homou ʻOtua au,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
