1 Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri, richiti,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi lisithi:
2 “Mwanakomana womunhu, zvanzi naIshe Jehovha kunyika yeIsraeri: Kuguma! Kuguma kwasvika kumativi mana enyika.
Wena-ke, ndodana yomuntu, itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova kulo ilizwe lakoIsrayeli: Isiphetho, isiphetho sesifikile phezu kwamagumbi womane elizwe.
3 Kuguma kwava pamusoro pako zvino uye ndichatuma kutsamwa kwangu pamusoro pako. Ndichakutonga zvakafanira tsika dzako ndigotsiva zvinyangadzo zvako zvose.
Khathesi isiphetho siphezu kwakho, njalo ngizathumela ukuthukuthela kwami phakathi kwakho, ngikwahlulele njengokwezenzo zakho, ngehlisele phezu kwakho wonke amanyala akho.
4 Handizokunzwiri ngoni kana kukuponesa; zvirokwazvo ndichakutsiva zvakafanira tsika dzako nezvinyangadzo zviri pakati pako. Ipapo uchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.
Lelihlo lami kaliyikukuhawukela, kangiyikuyekela, kodwa ngizakwehlisela izindlela zakho phezu kwakho, lamanyala akho azakuba phakathi kwakho. Khona lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
5 “Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Njodzi! Njodzi isina kumbonzwikwa nezvayo iri kuuya!
Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ububi, ububi obubodwa, khangela, sebufikile.
6 Kuguma kwasvika! Kuguma kwasvika! Kwamuka kuti kuzokurwisai. Kwauya!
Isiphetho sesifikile, isiphetho sesifikile, siyakuvukela; khangela, sesifikile.
7 Kuparadzwa kwauya pamusoro pako, iwe ugere panyika. Nguva yasvika, zuva rava pedyo; pava nokutya, kwete mufaro, pamusoro pamakomo.
Ukusa sekufikile kuwe, wena mhlali welizwe; isikhathi sesifikile, usuku lwenkathazo luseduze, njalo kungeyisikho ukumemeza ngenjabulo kwezintaba.
8 Ndava pedyo nokudurura hasha dzangu pamusoro pako ndigopedzera kutsamwa kwangu pamusoro pako; ndichakutonga zvakafanira mafambiro ako ndigotsiva zvinyangadzo zvako zvose.
Khathesi, kuseduze ukuthi ngithululele ulaka lwami phezu kwakho, ngiphelelise intukuthelo yami phakathi kwakho, ngikwahlulele njengokwezindlela zakho, ngehlisele phezu kwakho wonke amanyala akho.
9 Handizombokunzwiri ngoni kana kukuponesa; ndichakutsiva zvakafanira mafambiro ako nezvinyangadzo zviri pakati pako. Ipapo uchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha ndiri kukurova.
Lelihlo lami kaliyikuhawukela, njalo kangiyikuyekela; ngizanika njengokwezindlela zakho phezu kwakho, lamanyala akho azakuba phakathi kwakho. Khona lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi etshayayo.
10 “Zuva rasvika! Rauya! Kuparadzwa kwabuda, shamhu yabukira, kuzvikudza kwatumbuka!
Khangela usuku, khangela, selufikile; ukusa sekuphumile; intonga ihlumile, ukuziqhenya kukhahlele.
11 Kuita nechisimba kwakura kukava shamhu yokuranga zvakaipa; hakuna mumwe wavanhu ava achasara, hakuna pavazhinji vavo ivavo, kana pfuma kana chinokosha.
Udlakela lusukume lwaba yintonga yobubi; kakuyikusala kubo, hatshi-ke exukwini labo, hatshi-ke okwabo, njalo kakuyikuba khona ukuqhinqa isililo phakathi kwabo.
12 Nguva yauya, zuva rasvika. Mutengi ngaarege kufara uye mutengesi ngaarege kusuwa, nokuti hasha dziri pamusoro pavazhinji vose.
Isikhathi sesifikile, usuku selusondele; umthengi kangathokozi, lomthengisi angalili, ngoba ulaka luphezu kwexuku lonke lalo.
13 Mutengesi haangadzorerwi nyika yaakanga atengesa kana vose vari vaviri vachiri vapenyu, nokuti chiratidzo chakaonekwa pamusoro pavazhinji vose chichazozadziswa. Nokuda kwezvivi zvavo, hakuna kana mumwe wavo achachengetedza upenyu hwake.
Ngoba umthengisi kayikubuyela kokuthengisiweyo, lanxa impilo yabo isesephakathi kwabaphilayo; ngoba umbono mayelana lexuku lonke lalo kawuyikuphenduka; futhi kakulamuntu ongaqinisa impilo yakhe ngesiphambeko sakhe.
14 Kunyange vakaridza hwamanda uye vakagadzirira zvose, hapana achaenda kuhondo, nokuti hasha dzangu dziri pamusoro pavazhinji vose.
Baluvuthele uphondo ukuthi balungise konke, kodwa kakho oya empini, ngoba ulaka lwami luphezu kwexuku lalo lonke.
15 “Kunze kuno munondo, mukati mune denda nenzara; vaya vari musango vachafa nomunondo, uye vari muguta vachapedzwa nenzara nedenda.
Inkemba ingaphandle, lomatshayabhuqe wesifo lendlala kungaphakathi; osegangeni uzakufa ngenkemba, losemzini indlala lomatshayabhuqe wesifo kuzamqeda.
16 Vose vanorarama vachapunyuka vachange vari mumakomo, vachirira senjiva dzomumipata, mumwe nomumwe nokuda kwezvivi zvake.
Kodwa abaphunyukayo babo bazaphunyuka, babe sezintabeni njengamajuba ezihotsha, bonke belila, ngulowo lalowo ngenxa yesiphambeko sakhe.
17 Ruoko rumwe norumwe ruchapera simba uye ibvi rimwe nerimwe richarukutika semvura.
Zonke izandla zizaphela amandla, lamadolo wonke ageleze njengamanzi.
18 Vachafuka nguo dzamasaga uye vachafukidzwa nokutya. Zviso zvavo zvichafukidzwa nenyadzi uye misoro yavo ichaveurwa.
Njalo bazabhinca amasaka, lovalo luzabembesa, lenhloni zibe sebusweni bonke, lempabanga phezu kwamakhanda abo wonke.
19 Vachakanda sirivha yavo munzira dzomumisha, uye goridhe yavo ichava chinhu chisina kuchena. Sirivha yavo negoridhe ravo hazvingavaponesi pazuva rokutsamwa kwaJehovha. Hazvingapedzi nzara yavo kana kugutsa matumbu avo nazvo, nokuti ndizvo zvakavagumbusa vakapinda muchivi.
Bazalahla isiliva sabo ezitaladeni, legolide labo libe yikungcola; isiliva sabo legolide labo kakuyikuba lakho ukubophula ngosuku lokuthukuthela kweNkosi; kabayikonelisa umphefumulo wabo, bangagcwalisi amathumbu abo; ngoba kuyisikhubekiso sesiphambeko sabo.
20 Vakanga vachizvikudza nokuda kwoukomba hwavo hwakanaka uye vachihushandisa kuita zvifananidzo zvinonyangadza nezviumbwa zvakaipisisa. Naizvozvo ndichashandura izvi, zvikava chinhu chine tsvina kwavari.
Lobuhle besiceciso sakhe wabumisa ebukhosini, kodwa benza kubo imifanekiso yokunengekayo kwabo lezinengiso zabo; ngenxa yalokho ngibumise bube yinto engcolileyo kubo.
21 Ndichazvipa zvose kuvatorwa sezvinhu zvakapambwa uye sepfuma ingapambwa navakaipa venyika, uye vachazvisvibisa.
Njalo ngizakunikela esandleni sabezizwe kube yimpango, lakwabakhohlakeleyo bomhlaba kube yimpango, njalo bazakungcolisa.
22 Ndichavafuratira uye vachasvibisa nzvimbo yangu inokosha; mbavha dzichapinda mairi dzigoisvibisa.
Njalo ngizaphendula ubuso bami busuke kubo, bangcolise indawo yami yensitha; ngoba abaphangi bazangena kuyo, bayingcolise.
23 “Gadzirai ngetani, nokuti nyika izere nokuteura ropa uye guta rizere nokuita nechisimba.
Yenza iketane, ngoba ilizwe ligcwele amacala egazi, lomuzi ugcwele udlakela.
24 Ndichauyisa vanhu vakaipisisa vendudzi kuti vavatorere dzimba dzavo; ndichaita kuti kuzvikudza kwavane simba kugume, uye nzvimbo dzavo tsvene dzichasvibiswa.
Ngakho ngizaletha ababi bezizwe, abazakudla ilifa lezindlu zabo; ngikwenze kuphele ukuziqhenya kwabalamandla; lendawo zabo ezingcwele zizangcoliswa.
25 Kana kutya kwauya, vachatsvaka rugare asi havangaruwani.
Ukwethuka kuyeza; bazadinga-ke ukuthula, kodwa kakuyikuba khona.
26 Kuchauya njodzi pamusoro penjodzi uye guhu pamusoro peguhu. Vachaedza kutsvaka chiratidzo kumuprofita; kudzidziswa murayiro nomuprista kuchashayikwa, namazano anobva kuvakuruwo achashayikwa.
Incithakalo izakuza phezu kwencithakalo, lombiko ube phezu kombiko; khona bezadinga umbono kumprofethi, kodwa umlayo uzabhubha kumpristi, leseluleko kubadala.
27 Mambo achachema, muchinda achafukidzwa nokuora mwoyo, uye maoko avanhu vomunyika achadedera. Ndichavaitira zvakafanira mafambiro avo, uye ndichavatonga nemitemo yavo. Ipapo vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.”
Inkosi izalila, lesiphathamandla sembathiswe incithakalo, lezandla zabantu belizwe zizathuthumela. Ngizakwenza kubo ngokwendlela yabo, ngibahlulele ngezahlulelo zabo; khona bezakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
