Kasiyikuzifihlela abantwana babo, kusizukulwana esilandelayo, silandisa izindumiso zeNkosi, lamandla ayo, lezimangaliso ezenzileyo.
5 Akatema zvirevo zvaJakobho akasimbisa murayiro muIsraeri, waakarayira madzitateguru edu kuti vadzidzise vana vavo,
Ngoba wamisa ubufakazi koJakobe, wabeka umlayo koIsrayeli, awulaya obaba, ukuze bawazise abantwana babo,
6 kuti rudzi runotevera ruzvizive, kunyange vana vachazoberekwa, naivo vagozoudzawo vana vavo.

7 Ipapo vachavimba naMwari wavo uye havangazokanganwi mabasa ake asi vachazochengeta mirayiro yake.
ukuze babeke ithemba labo kuNkulunkulu, bangayikhohlwa imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu, kodwa bagcine imithetho yakhe;
8 Havazofanani namadzitateguru avo, rudzi rwakanga rwakasindimara uye rwaimumukira, mwoyo yavo yakanga isingateereri Mwari, mweya yavo yakanga isina kutendeka kwaari.
njalo bangabi njengaboyise, isizukulwana esilenkani lesivukelayo, isizukulwana esingaqondisanga inhliziyo yaso, lesimoya waso ungathembekanga kuNkulunkulu.
9 Vanhu vokwaEfuremu, kunyange vakanga vakapakata uta, vakadzokera shure pazuva rokurwa;
Abantwana bakoEfrayimi, behlomile betshoka ngamadandili, babuyela emuva mhla wempi.
10 havana kuchengeta sungano yaMwari, uye vakaramba kufamba maererano nomurayiro wake.
Kabasilondolozanga isivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu, bala ukuhamba emlayweni wakhe.
11 Vakakanganwa zvaakaita, zvishamiso zvaakavaratidza.
Bakhohlwa izenzo zakhe lezimangaliso zakhe ayebatshengisa zona.
12 Akaita zviratidzo pamberi pamadzibaba avo munyika yeIjipiti, mudunhu reZoani.
Phambi kwaboyise wenza isimangaliso elizweni leGibhithe, egangeni leZowani.
13 Akapamura gungwa akavayambutsa napakati; akaita kuti mvura imire yakasimba sorusvingo.
Waqhekeza ulwandle, wabachaphisa, wenza amanzi ema njengenqumbi.
14 Akavatungamirira negore masikati, uye nechiedza chomoto usiku hwose.
Wabakhokhela ngeyezi emini, lebusuku bonke ngokukhanya komlilo.
15 Akapamura ruware mugwenga akavapa mvura yakawanda seyamakungwa;
Waqhekeza amadwala enkangala, wabanathisa kungathi kuvela ezinzikini ezinkulu.
16 akabudisa hova dzemvura paruware akaita kuti iyerere seyenzizi.
Waseveza izifula edwaleni, wenza amanzi ehla njengemifula.
17 Asi vakaramba vachingomutadzira, vachimukira Wokumusoro-soro mugwenga.
Kodwa baphinda futhi ukona kuye, ngokumvukela oPhezukonke enkangala.
18 Vakaedza Mwari nobwoni vachimugombedzera kuti avape zvokudya zvavaipanga.
Bamlinga uNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yabo ngokucela ukudla kwenkanuko yabo.
19 Vakapopotera Mwari, vachiti, “Ko, Mwari angawadzira tafura mugwenga here?
Basebekhuluma bemelene loNkulunkulu bathi: UNkulunkulu angalungisa itafula enkangala yini?
20 Paakarova dombo, mvura yakatubuka, uye hova dzakayerera mvura zhinji. Asi angagona kutipawo zvokudya here? Angavigira vanhu vake nyama here?”
Khangela, watshaya idwala, kwampompoza amanzi, lezifula zagabha; anganika lesinkwa yini? angalungisela abantu bakhe inyama na?
21 Jehovha akati avanzwa, akatsamwa zvikuru kwazvo; moto wake ukaveserwa Jakobho, uye hasha dzake dzikamukira Israeri,
Ngakho iNkosi yezwa yathukuthela; umlilo wasubaselwa uJakobe, njalo lolaka lwavukela uIsrayeli,
22 nokuti havana kutenda muna Mwari kana kuvimba nokurwira kwake.
ngoba kabakholwanga kuNkulunkulu, kabathembanga esindisweni lwakhe.
23 Asi akarayira matenga kumusoro akazarura makonhi okumatenga;
Lanxa walaya amayezi ngaphezulu, wavula iminyango yamazulu,
24 akanayisa mana kuti vanhu vadye, akavapa zviyo zvokudenga.
wabanisela imana ukuthi badle, wabapha amabele amazulu.
25 Vanhu vakadya chingwa chavatumwa; akavatumira zvokudya zvose zvavaigona kudya.
Umuntu wadla isinkwa sabalamandla; wabathumela ukudla ukuze basuthe.
26 Akazarura mhepo yokumabvazuva kubva kudenga, uye akafambisa mhepo yakabva zasi nesimba rake.
Wenza umoya wempumalanga wavunguza emazulwini; langamandla akhe waqhuba umoya weningizimu.
27 Akavanayisira nyama pamusoro pavo seguruva, shiri dzinobhururuka dzakaita sejecha rokumhenderekedzo yegungwa.
Wasenisela phezu kwabo inyama njengothuli, lenyoni ezilempiko njengetshebetshebe lolwandle;
28 Akaita kuti dziburukire mumisasa yavo, dzakapoteredza matende avo ose.
wazenza zawela phakathi kwenkamba yabo, zagombolozela indawo zabo zokuhlala.
29 Vakadya kusvikira vaguta kwazvo, nokuti akanga avapa zvavakanga vachipanga.
Ngakho badla basutha kakhulu, ngoba wabalethela isiloyiso sabo.
30 Asi vasati vafuratira chokudya chavaikarira, kunyange pachakanga chichiri pamiromo yavo,
Kabehlukananga lenkanuko yabo; ukudla kusesemlonyeni wabo,
31 kutsamwa kwaMwari kwakavamukira; akauraya vakanga vakanyanya kusimba pakati pavo, akaparadza majaya eIsraeri.
ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lwaselubavukela, wabulala kwabakhulupheleyo babo, watshaya abakhethiweyo bakoIsrayeli.
32 Kunyange zvakadaro, vakaramba vachingotadza; kunyange zvazvo zviratidzo zvake izvi zvaivapo, havana kutenda.
Kulokhu konke bajinga besona, njalo kabakholwanga ngenxa yezimangaliso zakhe.
33 Saka akagumisa mazuva avo nezvisina maturo, uye makore avo mukutya.
Ngakho waziqeda izinsuku zabo ngeze, leminyaka yabo ovalweni.
34 Pose pavaiurayiwa naMwari, ndipo pavaimutsvaka; vaishingairira kudzokerazve kwaari.
Lapho ebabulala, bamdinga, baphenduka, bamdingisisa uNkulunkulu.
35 Vakarangarira kuti Mwari ndiye Dombo ravo, kuti Mwari Wokumusoro-soro ndiye Mudzikinuri wavo.
Bakhumbula ukuthi uNkulunkulu ulidwala labo, loNkulunkulu oPhezukonke ungumhlengi wabo.
36 Asizve vaingomubata kumeso nemiromo yavo, vachimurevera nhema nendimi dzavo;
Kodwa bamyenga ngomlomo wabo, baqamba amanga kuye ngolimi lwabo.
37 mwoyo yavo yakanga isina kutendeka kwaari, vakanga vasina kutendeka pasungano yake.
Ngoba inhliziyo yabo yayingaqondanga kuye, njalo bengathembekanga esivumelwaneni sakhe.
38 Kunyange zvakadaro iye akavanzwira tsitsi; akavakanganwira kuipa kwavo akasavaparadza. Nguva nenguva akadzora kutsamwa kwake, uye haana kumutsa hasha dzake dzose.
Kodwa yena elesihawu wathethelela ububi babo, kababhubhisanga; yebo, kanengi walunqanda ulaka lwakhe, kakuvusanga konke ukuthukuthela kwakhe.
39 Akarangarira kuti ivo vaingova nyama bedzi, mhepo inopfuura isingadzoki.
Ngoba wakhumbula ukuthi bayinyama, umoya odlulayo, ongabuyiyo.
40 Vakamumukira mugwenga kazhinji sei, uye vakamuitisa shungu murenje!
Kanengi kangakanani bemvukela ehlane, bemdabukisa enkangala.
41 Vakaedza Mwari vamuedzazve; vakagumbusa Iye Mutsvene waIsraeri.
Yebo baphenduka bamlinga uNkulunkulu, bamdabukisa oNgcwele kaIsrayeli.
42 Havana kurangarira simba rake, zuva raakavadzikinura kubva pamudzvinyiriri,
Kabasikhumbulanga isandla sakhe, usuku abahlenga ngalo esitheni.
43 zuva raakaratidza zviratidzo zvake zvinoshamisa muIjipiti, zvishamiso zvake mudunhu reZoani.
Ukuthi wamisa njani izibonakaliso zakhe eGibhithe, lezimangaliso zakhe emmangweni weZowani,
44 Akashandura nzizi dzavo dzikava ropa; havana kugona kunwa muhova dzavo.
lokuthi waphendula imifula yabo yaba ligazi, lezifula zabo, ukuze banganathi.
45 Akavatumira mapupira enhunzi dzikavaparadza, uye matatya akavaparadza zvikuru.
Wathumela phakathi kwabo umtshitshi wezibawu, ezabadlayo, lamaxoxo ababhubhisayo.
46 Akapa zviyo zvavo kumagutaguta nezvibereko zvavo kumhashu.
Wasenika imihogoyi isivuno sabo, lomsebenzi wabo isikhonyane.
47 Akaparadza mazambiringa avo nechimvuramabwe, uye namaonde emionde yavo nechando.
Wabulala ivini labo ngesiqhotho, lemikhiwa yabo yesikhamore ngongqwaqwane.
48 Mombe dzavo akadziisa kuchimvuramabwe, nezvipfuwo zvavo kukurova kwemheni.
Wasenikela izifuyo zabo esiqhothweni, lemihlambi yabo kuyo imibane.
49 Akaregedzera kutsamwa kwake kukuru pamusoro pavo, hasha dzake, shungu dzake noukasha hwake, boka ravatumwa vokuparadza.
Waphosela phezu kwabo ukuvutha kolaka lwakhe, ukuthukuthela, lokucunuka, lokuhlupheka, ngokuthuma izithunywa zobubi.
50 Akagadzira nzira yokutsamwa kwake; haana kuponesa mweya yavo parufu asi akavaisa kudenda.
Walungisela ulaka lwakhe indlela, kanqandanga umphefumulo wabo ekufeni, kodwa wanikela impilo yabo kumatshayabhuqe wesifo.
51 Akauraya matangwe ose eIjipiti, chibereko chokutanga chomurume pamatende aHamu.
Wasetshaya wonke amazibulo eGibhithe, okokuqala kwamandla emathenteni kaHamu.
52 Asi akabudisa vanhu vake seboka ramakwai; akavatungamirira samakwai nomugwenga.
Wasebakhupha abantu bakhe njengezimvu, wabakhokhela enkangala njengomhlambi.
53 Akavafambisa norugare, asi gungwa rakamedza vavengi vavo.
Wasebakhokhela bephephile ukuze bangesabi; kodwa ulwandle lwasibekela izitha zabo.
54 Saizvozvo akavasvitsa kumuganhu wenyika yake tsvene, kunyika yamakomo yaakatora noruoko rwake rworudyi.
Wasebafikisa emkhawulweni wendawo yakhe engcwele, le intaba, isandla sakhe sokunene esayizuzayo.
55 Akadzinga ndudzi mberi kwavo, akagovera nyika yavo kwavari senhaka; akagarisa rudzi rwaIsraeri mudzimba dzavo.
Wasebaxotsha abezizwe phambi kwabo; wababela ilifa ngomzila, wahlalisa izizwe zakoIsrayeli emathenteni azo.
56 Asi vakaedza Mwari uye vakamukira Wokumusoro-soro; vakasachengeta zvirevo zvake.
Kanti bamlinga, bamvukela uNkulunkulu oPhezukonke, kabazigcinanga izifakazelo zakhe.
57 Vakanga vasingazvirereki uye vasina kutendeka samadzibaba avo, vasingavimbiki souta hunonyengera.
Kodwa babuyela emuva, benza ngokungathembeki njengaboyise, baphanjulwa njengedandili elikhohlisayo.
58 Vakamutsamwisa nenzvimbo dzavo dzakakwirira; vakamutsa godo rake nokuda kwezvifananidzo zvavo.
Ngoba bamthukuthelisa ngezindawo zabo eziphakemeyo, bavusa umona wakhe ngezithombe zabo ezibaziweyo.
59 Mwari akati avanzwa akatsamwa zvikuru kwazvo; akaramba Israeri zvachose.
UNkulunkulu esizwa wathukuthela, wamenyanya kakhulu uIsrayeli.
60 Akasiya tabhenakeri yeShiro, iyo tende yaakanga amisa pakati pavanhu.
Ngakho walitshiya ithabhanekele leShilo, ithente alimisa phakathi kwabantu.
61 Akaendesa areka yesimba rake kuutapwa, kubwinya kwake mumaoko omuvengi.
Wasenikela amandla akhe ekuthunjweni, lenkazimulo yakhe esandleni sesitha.
62 Akaisa vanhu vake kumunondo; akatsamwira nhaka yake zvikuru kwazvo.
Wasenikela abantu bakhe enkembeni, waselithukuthelela ilifa lakhe.
63 Moto wakaparadza majaya avo, uye varandakadzi vavo vakashayiwa nziyo dzesvitsa;
Umlilo waqeda amajaha abo, lezintombi zabo kazihlatshelelwanga.
64 vaprista vavo vakanga vaiswa kumunondo, uye chirikadzi dzavo hadzina kugona kuchema.
Abapristi babo bawa ngenkemba, labafelokazi babo kabalilanga.
65 Ipapo Ishe akamuka somunhu anga akakotsira, somunhu amuka pakubatwa newaini.
Khona iNkosi yavuka njengobelele, njengeqhawe eliklabalala ngenxa yewayini.
66 Akarova vavengi vake vakadzokera shure; akavanyadzisa nokusingaperi.
Yazitshaya izitha zayo emuva, yazithela ihlazo phakade.
67 Ipapo akaramba matende aJosefa, haana kusarudza rudzi rwaEfuremu;
Yasilahla ithente likaJosefa, kayikhethanga isizwe sakoEfrayimi.
68 asi akasarudza rudzi rwaJudha, Gomo reZioni, raakada.
Kodwa yakhetha isizwe sakoJuda, intaba yeZiyoni eyithandayo.
69 Akavaka nzvimbo yake tsvene senhare yakakwirira, senyika yaakasimbisa nokusingaperi.
Yayakha indlu yayo engcwele njengezingqonga, njengomhlaba ewusekeleyo kuze kube nininini.
70 Akasarudza Dhavhidhi muranda wake, akamutora kumatanga amakwai;
Yasikhetha uDavida inceku yayo, yamthatha ezibayeni zezimvu;
71 akamubvisa pakufudza makwai kuti ave mufudzi wavanhu vake Jakobho, vaIsraeri nhaka yake.
ekulandeleni izimvukazi ezenyisayo, yamletha ukwelusa uJakobe abantu bayo, loIsrayeli ilifa layo.
72 Uye Dhavhidhi akavafudza nokururama kwomwoyo; akavatungamirira namaoko ouchenjeri.
Njalo wabelusa njengobuqotho benhliziyo yakhe, wabakhokhela ngobugabazi bezandla zakhe.
