Amahubo 49
1 Zwanini lokhu lonke bantu. Bekani indlebe lonke bakhileyo bomhlaba,
Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e Saame ki he ngaahi foha ʻo Kola. Mou fanongo ki he meʻa ni, ʻae kakai kotoa pē; fakafanongo, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku nofo ʻi māmani:
2 bonke abantukazana labaphakemeyo, abanothileyo labayanga, ndawonye.
ʻAe māʻulalo mo e māʻolunga, ʻae maʻumeʻa mo e masiva, fakataha.
3 Umlomo wami uzakhuluma izinhlakanipho, lokuzindla kwenhliziyo yami kuzakuba yikuqedisisa.
ʻE lea hoku ngutu ʻi he poto; pea ʻe kau ki he ʻilo ʻae fakakaukau ʻa hoku loto.
4 Ngizabeka indlebe yami kuso isaga, ngizavula ilibho lami ngechacho.
Te u fakatokangaʻi hoku telinga ki he lea fakatātā: te u fakahā ʻi he haʻape ʻeku lea ʻilongataʻa.
5 Ngizakwesabelani ensukwini zobubi, nxa ububi babagwenxi bami buzangihanqa.
Ko e hā te u manavahē ai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe kovi, ʻoka takatakai au ʻe he hia ʻo hoku vaʻe?
6 Abathemba ingcebo yabo, abazincoma ngobunengi benotho yabo,
Ko kinautolu ʻoku falala ki heʻenau mālohi, ʻo polepole ʻi hono lahi ʻo ʻenau koloa;
7 umuntu kasoze ahlenge lokuhlenga umfowabo, kasoze amnike uNkulunkulu inhlawulo yakhe,
ʻOku ʻikai ʻaupito faʻa fai ʻe hanau tokotaha ke huhuʻi hono tokoua, pe ʻatu ki he ʻOtua hano totongi:
8 (ngoba uhlengo lomphefumulo wabo luligugu, futhi luyaphela laphakade)
He ko e huhuʻi ʻo honau laumālie ʻoku mahuʻinga lahi, pea ʻoku tuku ai pe ia ʻo taʻengata:
9 ukuze ahlale ephila phakade, angaboni ukubola.
Koeʻuhi ke ne kei moʻui maʻuaipē, pea ʻikai ʻilo ʻae ʻauʻauha.
10 Ngoba ubona ukuthi abahlakaniphileyo bayafa, lokuthi isithutha kanye lesiphukuphuku bayabhubha, batshiyele inotho yabo abanye.
He ʻoku ne mamata ʻoku mate ʻae kau tangata poto, pea ʻoku ʻauha foki ʻae tangata vale pea mo e taʻeʻilo, ʻonau tuku ʻenau koloa ki he kakai kehe.
11 Umcabango wabo wangaphakathi uyikuthi izindlu zabo zizakuba ngezaphakade, izindawo zabo zokuhlala zibe ngezezizukulwana, babize amazwe ngamabizo abo.
ʻOku mahalo ʻa honau loto, ʻe tuʻumaʻu pē honau fale ʻo taʻengata, mo honau ngaahi nofoʻanga ki he toʻutangata kotoa pē; ʻoku nau fakahingoa honau ʻapi ki honau hingoa ʻonautolu.
12 Kodwa umuntu elodumo kayikuma, uyafanana lenyamazana ezibhubhayo.
Ka ko e moʻoni ko e tangata ʻoku māʻolunga ʻoku ʻikai tuʻumaʻu ia: ʻoku tatau ia mo e fanga manu ʻoku ʻauha.
13 Le indlela yabo iyibuthutha babo; kube kanti ababalandelayo bathokoza ngomlomo wabo. (Sela)
Pea ko honau hala ni ko ʻenau vale ia: ka ʻoku mālieʻia honau hako ʻi heʻenau ngaahi lea. (Sila)
14 Njengezimvu bamiselwe ingcwaba, ukufa kuzabelusa; labaqotho bazababusa ekuseni, isimo sabo ngesokuqedwa lingcwaba ukuze bangabi lendawo yokuhlala. (Sheol h7585)
Kuo tuku ʻakinautolu ki he faʻitoka ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi; ʻe fafanga ʻaki ʻae mate ʻakinautolu; pea ʻe maʻu ʻae mālohi kiate kinautolu ʻe he kakai angatonu ʻi he pongipongi; pea ʻe ʻauha honau matamatalelei ʻi he faʻitoka mei honau nofoʻanga. (Sheol h7585)
15 Kodwa uNkulunkulu uzahlenga umphefumulo wami emandleni engcwaba, ngoba uzangemukela. (Sela) (Sheol h7585)
Ka ʻe huhuʻi hoku laumālie ʻe he ʻOtua mei he mālohi ʻoe faʻitoka: he te ne maʻu au. (Sila) (Sheol h7585)
16 Ungesabi nxa umuntu enotha, nxa udumo lwendlu yakhe lusanda;
ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē koe ʻoka hoko ʻo koloaʻia ha tokotaha, ʻi he tupu pē ʻae nāunau ʻo hono fale;
17 ngoba ekufeni kwakhe kayikuthatha lutho, udumo lwakhe kaluyikwehla lumlandele.
He ʻoka mate ia ʻe ʻikai te ne fua ʻo ʻave ha meʻa ʻe taha: ʻe ʻikai muimui hifo ʻiate ia hono nāunau.
18 Lanxa empilweni yakhe wabusisa umphefumulo wakhe, njalo bakudumisa nxa uzenzela okuhle,
Ka ʻi heʻene moʻui naʻa ne tāpuaki hono laumālie: pea ʻe fakamālō ʻae kakai kiate koe, ʻoka ke ka fai lelei kiate koe.
19 uzakuya esizukulwaneni saboyise, kabayikubona ukukhanya kuze kube phakade.
ʻE ʻalu ia ki he toʻutangata ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai; ʻe ʻikai tenau mamata ki he maama.
20 Umuntu olodumo, engaqedisisi, unjengezinyamazana ezibhubhayo.
Ko e tangata ʻoku māʻolunga, ka ʻoku ʻikai poto, ʻoku tatau ia mo e fanga manu ʻoku ʻauha.
