ʻIsikieli 11
1 Ko eni foki naʻe hiki hake au ʻe he laumālie ʻo ne ʻomi au ki he matapā fakahahake ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova ʻaia ʻoku hanga ki he feituʻu hahake: pea vakai, naʻe ʻi he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko uofulu ma toko nima; pea naʻaku mamata ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa Sesania ko e foha ʻo ʻAsuli mo Peletaia ko e foha ʻo Penaia ko e houʻeiki ʻoe kakai.
Lapho-ke uMoya wangiphakamisela phezulu wangisa esangweni lendlu kaThixo elikhangele empumalanga. Khonapho ekungeneni kwesango kwakulamadoda angamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, njalo phakathi kwawo ngabona uJazaniya indodana ka-Azuri kanye loPhelathiya indodana kaBhenayiya, abakhokheli babantu.
2 Pea ne toki pehē kiate au, “Foha ʻoe tangata, ko e kau tangata ʻena ʻoku fakatupu ʻae kovi, ʻonau fakakaukau kovi ʻi he kolo ni:
UThixo wathi kimi, “Ndodana yomuntu, laba yibo abantu abenza amacebo amabi, benika lezeluleko ezimbi kulelidolobho.
3 ʻO nau pehē, ‘ʻOku ʻikai ofi ha meʻa ka tau langa fale ʻakitautolu: ko e kulo ʻae kolo ni ka ko e kakano ʻakitautolu.
Bathi, ‘Masinyane nje akuyikuba yiso na isikhathi sokwakha izindlu? Idolobho leli liyimbiza yokupheka, njalo thina siyinyama.’
4 “Ko ia ke ke kikite kiate kinautolu, kikite, ʻe foha ʻoe tangata.”
Ngakho-ke phrofetha okubi ngabo; phrofetha ndodana yomuntu.”
5 Pea naʻe hoko mai kiate au ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova ʻo ne pehē kiate au, “Lea, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; Ko eni, kuo mou lea pehē ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli: he ʻoku ou ʻilo kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku hū mai ki homou loto.
Lapho-ke uMoya kaThixo weza kimi wangitshela ukuba ngithi, Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: “Lokho yikho wena okutshoyo, wena ndlu ka-Israyeli, kodwa mina ngiyakwazi okusengqondweni yakho.
6 Kuo mou fakatokolahi hoʻomou mate tāmateʻi ʻi he kolo ni pea kuo mou fakafonu ʻaki ʻae mate tāmateʻi ʻa hono ngaahi hala.
Sewabulala abantu abanengi phakathi kwedolobho leli wagcwalisa imigwaqo yalo ngabafileyo.”
7 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Ko hoʻomou mate ʻaia kuo mou fokotuʻu ʻi loto ʻi ai, ko e kakano ʻakinautolu, pea ko e kolo ni ko e kulo ia: ka te u ʻomi kituʻa ʻakimoutolu mei ai.
Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: “Izidumbu oziphosele lapho ziyinyama njalo idolobho leli liyimbiza, kodwa wena ngizakuxotshela ngaphandle kwalo.
8 Kuo mou manavahē ki he heletā; pea te u ʻomi ʻae heletā kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
Inkemba uyayesaba, njalo inkemba yiyo engizayiletha ukuba imelane lawe, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
9 Pea te u ʻomi kituʻa ʻakimoutolu mei he lotolotonga ʻo ia, mo tukuange ʻakimoutolu ki he nima ʻoe kau muli, pea te u fai ʻae fakamalaʻia kiate kimoutolu.
Ngizakuxotshela ngaphandle kwedolobho ngikunikele kwabezizweni ngiphinde ngikujezise.
10 Pea ʻe tulaki hifo ʻakimoutolu ʻi he heletā; te u fakamaau ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻIsileli; pea te mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova.
Uzabulawa ngenkemba, njalo ngizakwahlulela emingceleni yako-Israyeli. Lapho-ke uzakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.
11 ʻE ʻikai hoko eni ko hoʻomou kulo, pea ʻe ʻikai hoko ʻakimoutolu ko e kakano ʻi loto ʻi ai; ka te u fakamaau ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻIsileli:
Idolobho leli kaliyikuba yimbiza yakho, kumbe wena ube yinyama phakathi kwalo; ngizakwahlulela emingceleni yako-Israyeli.
12 Pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au: he kuo ʻikai te mou ʻaʻeva ʻi heʻeku fekau, pe fai ki heʻeku fakamaau, ka kuo mou fai ki he anga ʻae hiteni ʻoku nofo tākai ʻiate kimoutolu.”
Njalo uzakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo, ngoba izimiso zami kawuzilandelanga kumbe wagcina imithetho yami kodwa ulandele izenzo zezizwe ezikuhanqileyo.”
13 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻeku kikite, naʻe mate ʻa Peletaia ko e foha ʻo Penaia. Pea naʻaku tō hifo ai ki hoku mata ʻo tangi ʻi he leʻo lahi, ʻo pehē, “ʻOiauē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua! Te ke fakaʻosi ke ʻosi ʻaupito ʻae toenga ʻo ʻIsileli?”
Kwathi lapho ngisaphrofitha, uPhelathiya indodana kaBhenayiya wafa. Ngakho ngathi mbo phansi ngobuso ngakhala ngelizwi eliphezulu ngisithi, “Awu, Thixo Wobukhosi! Uzaqothula insalela ka-Israyeli na?”
14 Naʻe toe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
15 “Foha ʻoe tangata, ko ho kāinga, ʻio, ho kāinga ʻoʻou, ʻae kau tangata ʻo ho faʻahinga, pea mo e fale kātoa kotoa ʻa ʻIsileli, ko kinautolu ia kuo pehē ki ai ʻae kakai ʻo Selūsalema, ‘ʻAlu ke mamaʻo ʻakimoutolu meia Sihova: he ko kimoutolu kuo foaki ki ai ʻae fonua ni ko e tofiʻa.’
“Ndodana yomuntu, abafowenu, abafowenu abayizihlobo zakho zegazi kanye lendlu yonke ka-Israyeli, yibo labo abantu baseJerusalema abathe ngabo: ‘Bakhatshana loThixo kakhulu; ilizwe leli saliphiwa ukuba libe yilifa lethu.’”
16 Ko ia ke ke lea, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; neongo ʻeku liʻaki ke mamaʻo ʻakinautolu ki he hiteni, pea neongo ʻeku fakahē ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fonua, ka te u hangē ko e siʻi hūfanga kiate kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi fonua ʻaia te nau hoko ki ai.
“Ngakho-ke wothi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Lanxa ngabasa khatshana phakathi kwezizwe njalo ngabahlakazela phakathi kwamazwe, ikanti okwesikhatshana ngibe yindlu engcwele kubo emazweni abaye kuwo.’
17 Ko ia ke ke pehē, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Te u tānaki moʻoni ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai pea fakataha mai kimoutolu mei he ngaahi fonua ʻaia kuo fakahēʻi ʻakimoutolu ki ai, pea te u foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae fonua ʻo ʻIsileli.
Ngakho-ke wothi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Ngizakubutha ezizweni ngikubuyise ngikususa emazweni owawuhlakazekele kuwo, njalo ngizakunika ilizwe lako-Israyeli futhi.’
18 Pea te nau hoko mai ki heni, pea te nau fetuku mei heni ʻa hono ngaahi meʻa kovi mo hono ngaahi fakalielia.
Bazabuyela kulo basuse zonke izifanekiso zalo ezihlazisayo kanye lezithombe ezenyanyekayo.
19 Pea te u foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae loto pe taha, pea te u ʻai ha laumālie foʻou kiate kimoutolu; pea te u toʻo atu ʻae loto maka mei honau kakano, pea te u foaki ʻae loto kakanoʻia kiate kinautolu:
Ngizabanika inhliziyo engehlukananga ngifake lomoya omutsha phakathi kwabo; ngizasusa kubo inhliziyo yabo yelitshe ngibaphe inhliziyo yenyama.
20 Koeʻuhi ke nau faʻa ʻeveʻeva ai ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea tauhi ʻa ʻeku tuʻutuʻuni mo fai ki ai: pea ʻe hoko ko hoku kakai ʻakinautolu, pea ko honau ʻOtua au.
Lapho-ke bazalandela izimiso zami baqaphele ukugcina imithetho yami. Bazakuba ngabantu bami, lami ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wabo.
21 Ka koeʻuhi ko kinautolu ʻoku muimui honau loto ki he loto ʻo ʻenau ngaahi meʻa fakaliliʻa mo ʻenau fakalielia, te u totongi ʻenau anga ki honau tumuʻaki, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
Kodwa labo abanhliziyo zabo zinikelwe ezifanekisweni zabo ezihlazisayo lasezithombeni ezenyanyekayo, lokhu abakwenzileyo ngizakwehlisela phezu kwamakhanda abo, kutsho Thixo Wobukhosi.”
22 Pea hili ia naʻe hiki ki ʻolunga ʻe he selupimi ʻa honau kapakau pea mo e ngaahi teka naʻe ofi ai; pea naʻe feangai hifo mei ʻolunga ʻiate kinautolu ʻae nāunau ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
Lapho-ke amakherubhi, ayelamavili emaceleni, elula impiko zawo, njalo inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli yayingaphezu kwawo.
23 Pea naʻe mahuʻi ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova mei he loto kolo, pea tuʻu mei he moʻunga ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he potu hahake ʻoe kolo.
Inkazimulo kaThixo yaya phezulu isuka phakathi kwedolobho yayakuma ngaphezu kwentaba ngasempumalanga kwedolobho.
24 Pea hili ia naʻe toʻo hake au ʻe he laumālie, pea ʻomi au ʻe he Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he meʻa hā mai ki Kalitia kiate kinautolu ʻoe pōpula. Pea naʻe pehē ʻae mahuʻi ʻiate au ʻae meʻa hā mai ʻaia naʻaku mamata ki ai.
UMoya wangiphakamisela phezulu wangisa kwabathunjiweyo eBhabhiloni ngombono owawulethwe nguMoya kaNkulunkulu. Emva kwalokho umbono engangiwubonile wasuka kimi,
25 Pea naʻaku toki fakamatala kiate kinautolu ʻoe pōpula ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻaia naʻe fakahā ʻe Sihova kiate au.
ngasengitshela abathunjiweyo konke Thixo ayengitshengise khona.
