Amahubo 73
1 Qotho uNkulunkulu ulungile kuIsrayeli, kulabo abahlambulukileyo enhliziyweni.
Ko e Saame ʻa ʻAsafi. Ko e moʻoni ʻoku angalelei ʻae ʻOtua ki ʻIsileli, ʻio, kiate kinautolu ʻoku loto maʻa.
2 Kodwa mina inyawo zami zaphose zasuka, izinyathelo zami zaphose zatshelela.
Ka ko au naʻe meimei mole hoku vaʻe: naʻaku meimei hekea ʻi heʻeku ngaahi laka.
3 Ngoba ngaba lomhawu ngabazikhukhumezayo, ngibona ukuphumelela kwababi.
He naʻaku meheka ʻi he kau vale, ʻi heʻeku mamata ki he fiemālie ʻae angakovi.
4 Ngoba kakulazibopho ekufeni kwabo, kodwa amandla abo aqinile.
He ʻoku ʻikai hanau mamahi ʻi heʻenau mate: ka ʻoku maʻu pe honau mālohi.
5 Kabakho enhluphekweni njengabanye abantu, njalo kabahlutshwa njengabanye abantu.
ʻOku ʻikai moʻua ʻi he mamahi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e kakai kehe; pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e kakai niʻihi.
6 Ngakho-ke ukuzigqaja kuyabazungeza njengeketane, udlame luyabasibekela njengesembatho.
Ko ia ʻoku takatakai ai ʻakinautolu ʻe he laukau ʻo hangē ko e ukamea fihifihi; ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻakinautolu ʻe he angamālohi ʻo hangē ko e kofu.
7 Amehlo abo aqumbile ngamafutha; iminakano yenhliziyo iyaphuphuma.
ʻOku hohopo honau mata ʻi heʻenau sino: ʻoku nau maʻu meʻa ʻo lahi hake ʻi he holi ʻoe loto.
8 Bayakloloda, bakhulume ngobubi ngocindezelo; bakhuluma besekuphakameni.
Kuo kovi ʻakinautolu, pea lea kovi ʻi he fakamālohi: ʻoku nau lea fakafiefielahi.
9 Bamisa umlomo wabo umelene lamazulu, lolimi lwabo luhamba emhlabeni.
ʻOku nau hangatonu atu honau ngutu ʻo angatuʻu ki he ngaahi langi, pea ʻoku ʻeveʻeva honau ʻelelo ʻi māmani.
10 Ngakho abantu bakhe bayaphendukela lapha, lamanzi enkezo egcweleyo akhanyelwa bona.
Ko ia ʻoku liu mai ai ki heni hono kakai: pea ʻoku tatau ʻae vai kiate kinautolu ke pito ʻae ipu.
11 Njalo bathi: UNkulunkulu wazi njani? Kukhona ulwazi yini koPhezukonke?
Pea ʻoku nau pehē, “ʻOku ʻilo fēfē ʻe he ʻOtua? Pea ʻoku ai ha ʻilo ʻi he Fungani Māʻolunga?”
12 Khangela, laba ngabangelaNkulunkulu, kanti bayaphumelela elizweni, bandisa inotho.
Vakai, ko eni ʻae kau angakovi ʻoku fiemālie ʻi he māmani; ʻoku tupu pē ʻenau koloa.
13 Isibili ngihlambulule inhliziyo yami ngeze, ngageza izandla zami ngokungelacala.
Ko e moʻoni ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ʻeku fakamaʻa hoku loto, mo ʻeku fanofano hoku nima ʻi he māʻoniʻoni.
14 Ngoba ngihlutshiwe usuku lonke, lesijeziso sami sisekuseni yonke.
He kuo ʻahiʻahiʻi au ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, pea kuo tautea au ʻi he pongipongi kotoa pē,
15 Uba bengingathi: Ngizakhuluma ngokunje, khangela, ngabe ngisikhohlisile isizukulwana sabantwana bakho.
Kapau te u tala, te u lea pehē; vakai, ko ʻeku fai hala ki he toʻutangata ʻo hoʻo fānau.
16 Lapho nganakana ukwazi lokhu, kwakubuhlungu emehlweni ami,
Pea ʻi heʻeku ʻahiʻahi ke ʻilo ʻae meʻa ni, naʻe faingataʻa ia kiate au;
17 ngaze ngangena ezindlini ezingcwele zikaNkulunkulu; ngasengikuqedisisa ukuphela kwabo.
Ka ʻi heʻeku hū ki he faletapu ʻoe ʻOtua; naʻaku toki ʻilo ai honau ikuʻanga.
18 Isibili ubamisa endaweni ezitshelelayo, ubawisela ekubhujisweni.
Ko e moʻoni naʻa ke tuku ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi potu hekeheke: kuo ke laku hifo ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fakaʻauha.
19 Yeka ukuchitheka kwabo njengokucwayiza kwelihlo! Baphela baqedwe ngokwesabisayo.
Kuo ʻomi vave ʻakinautolu ki he malaʻia, ʻo hangē ko e kemo pe taha ʻoe mata! Kuo fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi ilifia.
20 Njengephupho ekuphaphameni, Nkosi, nxa uvuka uzadelela umfanekiso wabo.
Hangē ko e misi ʻoka ʻā hake ha taha; ke pehē pe, ʻE ʻEiki, ʻoka ke ka ʻā hake, te ke manukiʻi honau tatau.
21 Ngakho inhliziyo yami yaba buhlungu, ngahlatshwa ezinsweni zami.
Naʻe mamahi pehē pe hoku laumālie, pea naʻe mahuhuhuhu ai hoku loto.
22 Njalo ngaba yisiphukuphuku esingaziyo, ngaba njengenyamazana kuwe.
Naʻe pehē ʻeku vale, pea naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo: naʻaku hangē ko e manu ʻi ho ʻao.
23 Kodwa mina ngihlezi ngilawe; ubambe isandla sami sokunene.
Ka ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou ʻiate koe maʻuaipē: pea kuo ke puke au ʻi hoku nima toʻomataʻu.
24 Uzangikhokhela ngeseluleko sakho, lemva kwalokho ungemukele enkazimulweni.
Te ke tataki au ʻi hoʻo poto, pea hili ia te ke maʻu au ki ho nāunau.
25 Ngilobani emazulwini ngaphandle kwakho? Njalo kakukho engikufisayo emhlabeni ngaphandle kwakho.
He ko hai mo koe ʻoku ou maʻu ʻi he loto langi? Pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻi māmani ʻoku ou holi ki ai, ka ko koe pē.
26 Inyama yami lenhliziyo yami kuyaphela; uNkulunkulu ulidwala lenhliziyo yami lesabelo sami kuze kube nininini.
ʻOku vaivai hoku kakano mo hoku loto: ka ko e makatuʻu ʻo hoku loto ʻae ʻOtua, mo hoku ʻinasi ʻo taʻengata.
27 Ngoba khangela, abakhatshana lawe bazabhubha; ubachithile bonke abaphingayo ngokusuka kuwe.
Vakai, ʻe ʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻoku mamaʻo ʻiate koe: kuo ke fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu meiate koe ʻo fai kovi.
28 Kodwa mina kungilungele ukusondela kuNkulunkulu; ngibeke isiphephelo sami eNkosini uJehova, ukutshumayela zonke izenzo zakho.
Ka ʻoku lelei kiate au ʻeku ʻunuʻunu ke ofi ki he ʻOtua: kuo u falala ki he ʻEiki ko Sihova, koeʻuhi ke u fakahā ai hoʻo ngāue kotoa pē.
