< Amahubo 122 >
1 Ngathokoza lapho besithi kimi: Kasiye endlini yeNkosi.
Ko e Hiva ʻa Tevita maʻae ʻalu hake. Naʻaku fiefia ʻi heʻenau pehē mai kiate au, “Ke tau ō ki he fale ʻo Sihova.”
2 Inyawo zethu zimi emasangweni akho, Jerusalema.
ʻE tuʻu homau vaʻe ki lotoʻā ʻi ho ngaahi matapā, ʻE Selūsalema.
3 IJerusalema yakhiwe njengomuzi ohlangeneyo ngokwawo,
Kuo langa ʻa Selūsalema ʻo hangē ko e kolo ʻoku māʻopoʻopo:
4 lapho izizwe ezenyukela khona, izizwe zeNkosi, kubufakazi bukaIsrayeli, ukuze zibonge ibizo leNkosi.
ʻAia ʻoku ʻalu hake ki ai ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo Sihova, ki he fakamoʻoni ʻa ʻIsileli, ke ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi ki he huafa ʻo Sihova.
5 Ngoba kumiswe khona izihlalo zobukhosi zesahlulelo, izihlalo zobukhosi zendlu kaDavida.
He ʻoku fokotuʻu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi nofoʻa ʻoe fakamaau, ko e ngaahi nofoʻa ʻoe fale ʻo Tevita.
6 Khulekelani ukuthula kweJerusalema; bazaphumelela abakuthandayo.
Mou hūfia ke melino ʻa Selūsalema: “ʻE monūʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku nau ʻofa kiate koe.
7 Kakube khona ukuthula phakathi kwemiduli yakho, inhlalakahle ezigodlweni zakho.
Ke ʻai ʻae melino ʻi ho ngaahi lotoʻā maka, mo e monūʻia ʻi ho ngaahi fale fakaʻeiʻeiki.”
8 Ngenxa yabafowethu labangane bami sengizakuthi: Ukuthula kakube phakathi kwakho.
Pea koeʻuhi ko hoku ngaahi kāinga mo hoku ngaahi kaumeʻa, te u lea ni, “Ke ʻiate koe ʻae melino.”
9 Ngenxa yendlu yeNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ngizakudingela okuhle.
Koeʻuhi ko e fale ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, te u kumi ke ke lelei ai.
