1 Umhlakazi ukhuphukile phambi kobuso bakho; gcina inqaba, linda indlela, qinisa ukhalo, yenza amandla akho aqine kakhulu.
U A pii mai ka mea luku imua o kou alo; E malama i kahi paa, e kiai i ke ala, E kaei i na puhaka, E hookupaa loa i ka ikaika.
2 Ngoba iNkosi ibuyisile ubukhosi bukaJakobe, njengobukhosi bukaIsrayeli. Ngoba abathululayo babathululile, bona izingatsha zevini zabo.
No ka mea, ua hoihoi mai o Iehova i ka nani o Iakoba, e like me ka nani o Iseraela, No ka mea, ua luku aku ka poe luku ia lakou, A ua hookai lakou i ka lakou mau lala waina.
3 Isihlangu samaqhawe akhe senziwe saba bomvu, amadoda alesibindi agqoke okubomvu; izinqola ziphakathi lomlilo wensimbi ngosuku lokuzilungiselela kwakhe; lezihlahla zamafiri zizazanyazanyiswa.
O ka palekaua o ka poe ikaika, ua ulaula. A o na kanaka koa, ua kahikoia lakou i ke kapa ulaula: Me ka wakawaka o na kila o na halekaa i ka la o kona hoomakaukau aua, A e haalulu na ihe paina.
4 Izinqola ziyahlanya ezitaladeni, zihaluzela ziye le lale emidangeni; ukubonakala kwazo kunjengezibane, zigijime njengemibane.
A e holo kiki na halekaa ma na alanui; Holo lakou ma o ma o, ma na ala palahalaha, Like ko lakou ikeia'na me na lamaku, A holo lakou me he uwila la.
5 Uzakhumbula izikhulu zakhe; zizakhubeka ekuhambeni kwazo; ziphangise emthangaleni wakhe, sesimisiwe isivikelo.
Hoomanao no oia i kona poe ikaika; E hina lakou i ko lakou hele ana, A holo lakou i kona papohaku, A e hoomakaukauia kahi e uhi ai.
6 Amasango emifula azavulwa, lesigodlo sincibilike.
A e weheia na pukapa o na muliwai, A e hehee iho ko ka halealii, a ua hookupaaia;
7 Njalo uHuzabhi uzakhokhelwa engothunjiweyo, uzakhutshulwa, lezincekukazi zakhe zimkhokhele kwangathi ngelizwi lamajuba, zitshaya ezifubeni zazo.
A ua weheia kona kapa, a alakaiia'ku ia, A o kana poe kauwawahine e u ana, e like me ka leo o na manu nunu, e hahau ana i ko lakou umauma.
8 Loba iNineve injengechibi lamanzi kusukela kwasendulo, kanti bazabaleka. Bathi: Manini! manini! kodwa kakho ozaphenduka.
A ua like o Nineva me he kiowai la, mai ka manawa mamua mai; Aka, e holo aku no lakou. E ku oukou, e ku! aohe mea e nana ihope,
9 Phangani isiliva, phangani igolide; ngoba kakulakuphela kokubuthelelweyo, lenkanzimulo kuzo zonke izitsha eziloyisekayo.
E lawe aku oukou i ke kala, e lawe aku i ke gula: Aole he hope no ka waiwai, no ka nani, a me kona mau mea maikai a pau.
10 Iyize, kayiselalutho, ichithekile; inhliziyo iyancibilika, lamadolo ayatshayana, lobuhlungu obukhulu busezinkalweni zonke, lobuso babo bonke bunyukumele.
Ua nele, ua neoneo, a ua lukuia oia: Ua hehee ka naau, ua palupalu na kuli, A he haalulu ma na puhaka a pau, A ke nananakea na maka a pau.
11 Ingaphi indawo yokuhlala yezilwane, lendawo yokudlela yamabhongo esilwane, lapho esasihamba khona isilwane, isilwane esidala, lomdlwane wesilwane, njalo kungekho okuzethusayo?
Auhea ka noho ana o na liona; A mahea la kahi e ai ai na liona opio; Kahi i hele ai ka liona, ka liona wahine, A me ke keiki liona, aohe mea nana lakou e hoomakau;
12 Isilwane sadabudabula okwenele imidlwane yaso, sakhamela izilwanekazi zaso, sagcwalisa imilindi yaso ngempango, lezindawo zaso zokuhlala ngokudatshuliweyo.
Ua haehae ka liona a nui no kana poe keiki, A uumi no ia no kana liona wahine, A hoopiha no ia i kona mau lua i ka mea pio, a i kona mau ana i ka mea i laweia.
13 Khangela, ngimelene lawe, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, ngizazitshisa inqola zakhe entuthwini, lenkemba izaqeda amabhongo ezilwane akho; njalo ngizaquma impango yakho kusuke emhlabeni, lelizwi lezithunywa zakho kalisayikuzwakala.
Aia hoi, ua maka e aku au ia oe, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, A e puhi aku au i kona mau halekaa iloko o ka uahi, A e luku aku ka pahikaua i kau mau liona opiopio; A e oki aku au i kou mea pio mai ka honua aku, Aole loa e lohe hou ia ka leo o kau mau elele.
