< UHabakhukhi 3 >

1 Umkhuleko kaHabhakhukhi umprofethi ngamaShigayoni.
Ko e lotu ʻa Hapakuki ko e palōfita ʻi he Sikaiona.
2 Nkosi, ngizwile umbiko wakho, ngesaba; Nkosi, vuselela umsebenzi wakho phakathi kweminyaka, phakathi kweminyaka wenze kwaziwe; olakeni ukhumbule umusa.
‌ʻE Sihova, kuo u fanongo ki hoʻo folofola, pea ne u manavahē: ʻE Sihova, fakaakeake hoʻo ngāue ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi taʻu, fakahā ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi taʻu; ʻi he houhau, manatu ki he ʻaloʻofa.
3 UNkulunkulu wavela eThemani, loNgcwele entabeni yeParani. (Sela) Inkazimulo yakhe yasibekela amazulu, lomhlaba wagcwala indumiso yakhe.
Naʻe hāʻele mai ʻae ʻOtua mei Timani, mo e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni mei he moʻunga ko Palani. (Sila) Naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻae ngaahi langi ʻe hono nāunau, pea naʻe fonu ʻa māmani ʻi hono fakamālō.
4 Lokucwazimula kwakunjengokukhanya, wayelemisebe ephuma esandleni sakhe; njalo lapho kwakulokufihlwa kwamandla akhe.
Pea naʻe malama ia ʻo hangē ko e maama; naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae maama ulo mei hono nima: pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae fakafufū ʻo ʻene māfimafi.
5 Phambi kwakhe kwahamba umatshayabhuqe wesifo, lelangabi laphuma ezinyaweni zakhe.
Naʻe ʻalu atu ʻi hono ʻao ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha, pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻi hono vaʻe ʻae maka fefie ʻoku vela.
6 Wema, walinganisa umhlaba; wabona, wathuthumelisa izizwe; lentaba zaphakade zahlakazeka, amaqaqa amandulo akhothama; izindlela zaphakade zingezakhe.
Naʻe tuʻu ia, ʻo fuofua ʻae fonua: naʻa ne ʻafioʻi, mo fakamovetevete ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga; naʻe fakamovetevete ʻae ngaahi moʻunga taʻengata, naʻe ofeʻi hifo ʻae ngaahi tafungofunga tuʻumaʻu: ʻoku taʻengata ʻa hono ngaahi ʻaluʻanga.
7 Ngabona amathente eKushani phansi kwenhlupheko; amakhetheni elizwe leMidiyani athuthumela.
Naʻaku mamata ʻoku ʻi he mamahi ʻae ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo Kusani: pea naʻe tetetete ʻae ngaahi puipui ʻoe fonua ko Mitiane.
8 INkosi yathukuthelela imifula yini? Ulaka lwakho lwalumelene lemifula yini? Intukuthelo yakho yayimelene lolwandle yini, lokhu ugade amabhiza akho, izinqola zakho zosindiso?
Naʻe mamahi ʻa Sihova ki he ngaahi vaitafe? Naʻa ke houhau ki he ngaahi vaitafe? Naʻe ʻi he tahi ʻa ho tuputāmaki, koeʻuhi naʻa ke heka ai ʻi hoʻo fanga hoosi, mo hoʻo ngaahi saliote ʻoe fakamoʻui?
9 Idandili lakho lembuliwe lavela obala, njengokwezifungo zezizwe, ngitsho ilizwi lakho. (Sela) Waqhekeza umhlaba ngemifula.
Naʻe toʻo ʻo teke ʻa hoʻo kaufana, ʻo fakatatau mo e ngaahi fuakava ki he ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻio, ko hoʻo folofola. (Sila) Naʻa ke fahifahi ʻaki ʻae fonua ʻae ngaahi vaitafe.
10 Intaba zakubona, zathuthumela; isikhukhula samanzi sedlula; ukujula kwakhupha ilizwi lakho, kwaphakamisela izandla zakho phezulu.
Naʻe mamata kiate koe ʻae ngaahi moʻunga, pea nau tetetete ai: naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae fetafeaki ʻoe vai: naʻe fakahā ʻe he moana ʻa hono leʻo, pea hiki hake hono nima ki ʻolunga.
11 Ilanga lenyanga kwema endaweni yakho yokuhlala; ekukhanyeni imitshoko yakho yahamba, ngokukhazimula kokuphazima komkhonto wakho.
Naʻe tuʻumaʻu ʻae laʻā, mo e māhina ʻi hona nofoʻanga: naʻe ʻalu atu hoʻo ngaahi ngahau ʻi hona maama, pea ʻi he ulo ho tao ngingila.
12 Ngokuthukuthela wanyathela ilizwe, ngolaka wabhula izizwe.
Naʻa ke hāʻele atu ʻi he fonua, ʻi he tuputāmaki, naʻa ke haha ʻae hiteni ʻi ho houhau.
13 Waphumela usindiso lwabantu bakho, usindiso logcotshiweyo wakho; ulimaza ikhanda endlini yokhohlakeleyo, ngokwembula isisekelo kuze kube sentanyeni. (Sela)
Naʻa ke meʻa atu koeʻuhi ko e fakamoʻui ʻo hoʻo kakai, ʻio, koeʻuhi ko e fakamoʻui ʻo hoʻo kau pani: naʻa ke taaʻi ʻae ʻulu ʻi he fale ʻoe angakovi, naʻa ke fakaʻauha hono tuʻunga, ʻo aʻu ki he maka. (Sila)
14 Wahlaba ngemikhonto yakhe inhloko yamadoda akhe empi; baba njengesivunguzane ukungihlakaza; ukuthokoza kwabo kwakunjengokudla abayanga ngasese.
Naʻa ke hokaʻi ʻae ʻulu ʻo ʻene kautau, mei hono ngaahi faʻahinga: naʻe haʻu ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e ʻahiohio ke fakamovete au: ko ʻenau fiefiaʻanga ia, ke keina ʻae masiva ʻi he fufū.
15 Wanyathela phakathi kolwandle ngamabhiza akho, inqumbi yamanzi amanengi.
Naʻa ke hāʻele atu mo hoʻo fanga hoosi ʻi he tahi, ʻi he fokotuʻunga ʻoe ngaahi vai lahi.
16 Lapho ngisizwa, isisu sami sathuthumela; indebe zami zaqhaqhazela ngelizwi; ukubola kwangena emathanjeni ami, ngathuthumela endaweni yami, ukuze ngiphumule ngosuku lohlupho; lapho esenyuka emelene labantu uzabahlasela.
‌ʻI heʻeku fanongo ki ho leʻo, naʻe ngalulu hoku fatu; naʻe tetetete hoku ngutu ʻi ho leʻo: naʻe hū ʻae popo ki hoku ngaahi hui, pea u tetetete ʻiate au; ka te u mālōlō ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi: ʻoka hoko hake ia ki he kakai, te ne hoko mo ʻene ngaahi kautau, kiate kinautolu.
17 Loba umkhiwa ungakhahleli, kungekho lesivuno sesivini, umsebenzi womhlwathi uzaphutha, lamasimu angavezi ukudla, izimvu zizaqunywa zisuke esibayeni, kungabi khona inkomo ezibayeni;
Neongo ʻene ʻikai fisi ʻae ʻakau ko e fiki, pea ʻe ʻikai ha fua ʻi he ngaahi vaine; pea kovi ʻae tupu ʻoe ʻolive, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻi he ngaahi ngoue ha meʻakai; pea ʻe motuhi ʻae fanga sipi mei he lotoʻā, pea ʻe ʻikai ha fanga manu ʻi he ngaahi tuʻunga:
18 kanti mina ngizathokoza eNkosini, ngijabule kuNkulunkulu wosindiso lwami.
Ka neongo ia te u fiefia ʻia Sihova, pea u nekeneka ʻi he ʻOtua ʻo hoku fakamoʻui.
19 UJehova iNkosi ungamandla ami; njalo uzakwenza inyawo zami zibe njengezezimpala, angenze ukuthi nginyathele ezindaweni zami eziphakemeyo. Kumqondisi wokuhlabelela ngamachacho ami.
Ko ʻeku mālohi ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua, pea te ne ngaohi hoku vaʻe ke hangē ko e vaʻe ʻoe hainite, pea te ne pule ke u ʻeveʻeva ʻi hoku ngaahi potu māʻolunga. Ki heʻeku takimuʻa ʻoe fasi hiva ʻi he Nekina.
