< ʻIsikieli 20 >
1 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi hono fitu ʻoe taʻu, ʻi hono nima ʻoe māhina, pea ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe ʻaho ʻi he māhina, naʻe haʻu ai ʻae niʻihi ʻi he kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli ke fakafehuʻi kia Sihova, pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi hoku ʻao.
Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wesikhombisa, ngenyanga yesihlanu, ngolwetshumi lwenyanga, abathile babadala bakoIsrayeli beza ukuzabuza iNkosi, bahlala phambi kwami.
2 Pea naʻe hoko mai kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi lisithi:
3 “Foha ʻoe tangata, lea ki he kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, pea ke pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; kuo mou haʻu ke fakafehuʻi kiate au? ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, Hangē ʻoku ou moʻui, ʻe ʻikai te u tali ha fakafehuʻi meiate kimoutolu.
Ndodana yomuntu, khuluma kubadala bakoIsrayeli, uthi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Lize ukuzangibuza yini? Kuphila kwami, isibili kangiyikubuzwa yini, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
4 “ʻIkai te ke fakahalaia ʻakinautolu, ʻe foha ʻoe tangata, ʻikai te ke fakahalaia ʻakinautolu? Fakaʻilo kiate kinautolu ʻae fakalielia ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai:
Uzabahlulela yini, uzabahlulela yini, ndodana yomuntu? Bazise izinengiso zaboyise;
5 Pea ke pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻI he ʻaho ko ia naʻaku fili ʻa ʻIsileli, pea u hiki hake hoku nima ki he hako ʻoe fale ʻo Sēkope, pea naʻaku fakahā au kiate kinautolu ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻi heʻeku hiki hake hoku nima kiate kinautolu, pea u pehē, Ko au, ko Sihova, ko homou ʻOtua;
uthi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ngosuku engakhetha ngalo uIsrayeli, ngaphakamisa isandla sami kunzalo yendlu kaJakobe, ngazazisa kubo elizweni leGibhithe, lapho ngiphakamisa isandla sami kibo, ngisithi: NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
6 ʻI he ʻaho naʻaku hiki hake hoku nima kiate kinautolu, ke u ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ki ha fonua ne u fili mai moʻonautolu, naʻe fetāfeaki ai ʻae huʻahuhu mo e hone, ʻaia ko e fungani ʻi he fonua kotoa pē.
Ngalolusuku ngaphakamisa isandla sami kubo, ukuthi ngibakhuphe elizweni leGibhithe ngibase elizweni engangibahlolele lona, eligeleza uchago loluju, eliludumo lwawo wonke amazwe.
7 Pea naʻaku toki pehē ai kiate kinautolu, Liʻaki atu ʻekimoutolu, ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakalielia ʻoku ne sio ki ai, pea ʻoua naʻa fakaʻuli ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi tamapua ʻo ʻIsipite: Ko au ko Sihova, ko homou ʻOtua.
Ngasengisithi kubo: Lahlani ngulowo lalowo izinengiso zamehlo akhe, lingazingcolisi ngezithombe zeGibhithe: NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
8 Ka naʻa nau angatuʻu kiate au, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau fanongo kiate au: naʻe ʻikai ke liʻaki taki taha ʻe he tangata, ʻae ngaahi fakalielia naʻa nau sio ki ai, pea naʻe ʻikai liakiʻi ʻekinautolu ʻae ngaahi tamapua ʻo ʻIsipite: ko ia naʻaku pehē ai, te u lilingi atu hoku houhau kiate kinautolu, ke fai ʻeku houhau kiate kinautolu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fonua ko ʻIsipite.
Kodwa bangivukela, bengavumi ukulalela kimi, kabalahlanga ngulowo lalowo izinengiso zamehlo abo, kabatshiyanga izithombe zeGibhithe. Ngasengisithi ngizathululela ukuthukuthela kwami phezu kwabo, ukuze ngiphelelise ulaka lwami ngimelene labo phakathi kwelizwe leGibhithe.
9 Ka naʻaku ngāue koeʻuhi ko hoku huafa, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa fakalielia ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni, ʻaia naʻa nau nofo ai, ʻakinautolu naʻaku fakahā au ʻi honau ʻao kiate kinautolu, ʻi heʻeku ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
Kodwa ngakwenza ngenxa yebizo lami, ukuze lingangcoliswa emehlweni ezizwe, ababephakathi kwazo, engazazisa kubo phambi kwamehlo azo, ukubakhupha elizweni leGibhithe.
10 Ko ia naʻaku pehē ai ke nau ʻalu atu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he toafa.
Ngakho ngabakhupha elizweni leGibhithe, ngabangenisa enkangala.
11 Pea naʻaku foaki kiate kinautolu ʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea u fakaʻilo kiate kinautolu ʻa hoku finangalo, ʻaia ka fai ʻe he tangata te ne moʻui moʻoni mei ai.
Ngabanika izimiso zami, ngabazisa izahlulelo zami, okuthi nxa umuntu ezenza, uzaphila ngazo.
12 Pea naʻaku foaki foki kiate kinautolu ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻaho tapu, ko e fakaʻilonga kiate kinautolu mo au, ke nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova, ʻoku fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakinautolu.
Ngabanika futhi amasabatha ami ukuze abe yisibonakaliso phakathi kwami labo, ukuze bazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi ebangcwelisayo.
13 Ka naʻe angatuʻu ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli kiate au ʻi he toafa: naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻalu ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea naʻa nau paetaku ki hoku finangalo, ʻaia ka fai ki ai ʻae tangata, te ne moʻui moʻoni mei ai; pea naʻe fakalieliaʻi lahi ʻaupito ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻaho tapu: ko ia ne u pehē, te u lilingi hoku houhau kiate kinautolu ʻi he toafa, ke nau ʻauha ai.
Kodwa indlu kaIsrayeli yangivukela enkangala; kabahambanga ngezimiso zami, badelela izahlulelo zami, okuthi nxa umuntu ezenza, uzaphila ngazo; lamasabatha ami bawangcolisa kakhulu. Ngasengisithi ngizathululela ukuthukuthela kwami phezu kwabo enkangala, ukuze ngibaqede.
14 Ka naʻaku ngāue koeʻuhi ko hoku huafa, ke ʻoua naʻa fakalieliaʻi ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni, ʻakinautolu naʻaku ʻomi ai ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ʻao.
Kodwa ngakwenza ngenxa yebizo lami, ukuze lingangcoliswa emehlweni ezizwe, engabakhupha emehlweni azo.
15 Kaeʻumaʻā foki, naʻaku hiki hake hoku nima kiate kinautolu ʻi he toafa, koeʻuhi ke u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he fonua naʻaku foaki kiate kinautolu ʻoku fetafeaki ai ʻae huʻahuhu mo e hone, ʻaia ko e fungani ʻi he fonua kotoa pē;
Futhi lami ngabaphakamisela isandla sami enkangala, ukuthi kangiyikubaletha elizweni engangilinike bona, eligeleza uchago loluju, eliludumo lwawo wonke amazwe;
16 Koeʻuhi naʻa nau paetaku ki hoku finangalo, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻalu ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau, ka naʻa nau fakaʻuliʻi hoku ngaahi ʻaho tapu: he naʻe muimui honau loto ki honau ngaahi tamapua.
ngoba badelela izahlulelo zami, kabahambanga ngezimiso zami, kodwa bangcolisa amasabatha ami, ngoba inhliziyo yabo yalandela izithombe zabo.
17 Ka neongo ia, naʻe mamae hoku mata kiate kinautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai te u fakaʻosiʻosi ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa.
Lanxa kunjalo ilihlo lami labahawukela ukuze ngingababhubhisi, futhi kangibaqedanga enkangala.
18 Ka naʻaku pehē ki heʻenau fānau ʻi he toafa, ʻoua naʻa mou muimui ʻi he ngaahi fekau ʻa hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, pea ʻoua naʻa fai ki honau loto, pe te mou fakalieliaʻi ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻa honau ngaahi tamapua;
Kodwa ngathi kubantwana babo enkangala: Lingahambi ngezimiso zaboyihlo, lingagcini izahlulelo zabo, lingazingcolisi ngezithombe zabo.
19 Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua; ʻeveʻeva ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea tauhi ki hoku finangalo ke fai ki ai;
NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu; hambani ngezimiso zami, ligcine izahlulelo zami, lizenze.
20 Pea fakatapui ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻaho tapu; pea ʻe tuku ia ko e fakaʻilonga kiate kimoutolu mo au, koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo, ko au, ko Sihova, ko homou ʻOtua.
Lingcwelise amasabatha ami, abe yisibonakaliso phakathi kwami lani, ukuze lazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
21 Ka neongo ia naʻe angatuʻu ʻae fānau kiate au: naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻeveʻeva ʻi heʻeku fekau, pe te nau tauhi ki hoku finangalo, ke fai ki ai, ʻaia ka fai ʻe he tangata, te ne moʻui moʻoni mei ai; naʻa nau fakaʻuliʻi hoku ngaahi ʻaho tapu: ko ia ne u pehē ai, te u lilingi hoku houhau kiate kinautolu, ke fai ʻeku houhau kiate kinautolu ʻi he toafa.
Kodwa abantwana bangivukela; kabahambanga ngezimiso zami, kabagcinanga izahlulelo zami ukuthi bazenze; okuthi nxa umuntu ezenza, uzaphila ngazo; bawangcolisa amasabatha ami; ngasengisithi ngizathululela intukuthelo yami phezu kwabo, ukuthi ngiphelelise ulaka lwami ngimelene labo enkangala.
22 Ka naʻa mo ia, ne u taʻofi ki hoku nima, pea u ngāue koeʻuhi ko hoku huafa, ke ʻoua naʻa fakalieliaʻi ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni, ʻakinautolu naʻaku ʻomi ai ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ʻao.
Kodwa ngabuyisa isandla sami, ngenza ngenxa yebizo lami, ukuze lingangcoliswa phambi kwamehlo ezizwe, engangibakhuphe phambi kwamehlo azo.
23 Pea naʻaku hiki hake foki ʻa hoku nima kiate kinautolu ʻi he toafa, koeʻuhi ke u fakahēʻi ʻakinautolu ki he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi hiteni, pea fakamovetevete ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fonua;
Mina ngabaphakamisela isandla sami futhi enkangala, ukuthi ngizabahlakaza phakathi kwezizwe, ngibasabalalisele emazweni;
24 Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te nau fai hoku finangalo, ka naʻa nau manukiʻi ʻa ʻeku ngaahi fekau, mo nau fakaʻuliʻi ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻaho tapu, pea naʻe muimui ʻa honau mata ki he ngaahi tamapua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
ngoba bengazenzanga izahlulelo zami, kodwa badelela izimiso zami, bangcolisa amasabatha ami, lamehlo abo alandela izithombe zaboyise.
25 Ko ia naʻaku tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi fekau naʻe ʻikai lelei, mo e tuʻutuʻuni ʻe ʻikai te nau moʻui ai;
Ngakho mina ngabanika futhi izimiso ezazingalunganga, lezahlulelo ababengeke baphile ngazo.
26 Pea naʻaku fakalieliaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau ngaahi feilaulau ʻanautolu, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau tuku ke ʻalu atu ʻi he afi ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe haʻu mei he manāva, koeʻuhi ke u fakatōkilalo ʻakinautolu, koeʻuhi ke nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova.
Ngasengibangcolisa kuzo izipho zabo, ekudabuliseni kwaboemlilweni konke okuvula isizalo, ukuze ngibachithe, ukuze bazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
27 “Ko ia, foha ʻoe tangata, lea atu ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pea ke pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Ko e moʻoni, ko e meʻa eni kuo takuanoa au ʻe hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, koeʻuhi kuo nau fai ʻae angahala kiate au.
Ngakho, ndodana yomuntu, khuluma kuyo indlu yakoIsrayeli, uthi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Lakulokhu oyihlo bangihlambazile, ngokuthi baphambeke isiphambeko bemelene lami.
28 He naʻe hili ʻeku ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he fonua, ʻaia naʻaku hiki hake ai hoku nima kiate kinautolu, ke u foaki ia kiate kinautolu, pea nau toki mamata ki hono ngaahi potu māʻolunga kotoa pē, mo e vao ʻakau matolu, pea naʻa nau ʻatu ʻi ai ʻenau ngaahi feilaulau, pea nau fai ʻi ai ʻae fakahouhau ʻi heʻenau ngaahi feilaulau: naʻe ngaohi foki ʻi ai ʻenau fakanamu kakala, ʻonau lilingi ʻi ai ʻenau ngaahi feilaulau inu.
Lapho sengibalethe elizweni, engaphakamisela isandla sami ngalo ukuthi ngibanike lona, babona lonke uqaqa oluphakemeyo, lazo zonke izihlahla eziqatha, bahlaba khona imihlatshelo yabo, banikela khona isicunulo somnikelo wabo, bafaka khona iphunga labo elimnandi, bathulula khona iminikelo yabo yokunathwayo.
29 Pea naʻaku toki lea kiate kinautolu, Ko e hā ʻae potu māʻolunga ko ia, ʻaia ʻoku mou ʻalu ki ai? Pea ʻoku ui ia ko Pama, ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni.
Ngasengisithi kubo: Iyini indawo ephakemeyo eliya kuyo? Lebizo layo lithiwa yiNdawo ePhakemeyo kuze kube lamuhla.
30 “Ko ia, lea ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; kuo mou fakalielia ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou ngaahi tamai? Pea ʻoku mou fai feʻauaki ʻo hangē ko ʻenau ngaahi fakalielia?
Ngakho tshono kuyo indlu kaIsrayeli: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Lizazingcolisa ngendlela yaboyihlo yini, liphinge lilandela izinengiso zabo?
31 He ka mou ka ʻatu hoʻomou ngaahi feilaulau, pea ka mou ka tuku ke ʻalu atu ʻi he afi ʻa homou ngaahi foha, ʻoku mou fakalieliaʻi ʻakimoutolu mo homou ngaahi tamapua, ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni: pea ʻe fakafehuʻi au ʻekimoutolu, ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli? ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, hangē ʻoku ou moʻui, ʻe ʻikai te u tali haʻamou fakafehuʻi kiate au.
Ngoba lapho linikela izipho zenu, lapho lisenza amadodana enu adabule emlilweni, liyazingcolisa ngezithombe zenu zonke kuze kube lamuhla. Mina-ke ngizabuzwa yini na, wena ndlu kaIsrayeli? Kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehova, isibili kangiyikubuzwa yini.
32 Pea ko ia ʻoku ʻi homou loto ke fai, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito hoko ia, ʻaia ʻoku mou lea ʻaki, Te mau hangē ko e hiteni, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi faʻahinga ʻi he ngaahi fonua, ʻoku tauhi ki he ʻakau mo e maka.
Lalokho okuvela engqondweni yenu kakuyikuba khona ngitsho, elikutshoyo ukuthi: Sizakuba njengabezizwe, njengensapho zamazwe, ukuthi sikhonze isigodo lelitshe.
33 “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ʻoku ou moʻui, te u puleʻi moʻoni ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae nima mālohi, pea mo e nima kuo mafao, mo e lilingi atu ʻoe houhau.
Kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehova, isibili ngizabusa phezu kwenu ngesandla esilamandla langengalo eyeluliweyo langolaka oluthululiweyo!
34 Pea te u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai, pea te u tānaki ʻakimoutolu mei he ngaahi fonua kuo mou he ki ai, ʻaki ʻae nima mālohi mo e nima kuo mafao, pea mo e lilingi atu ʻoe houhau.
Ngoba ngizalikhupha ebantwini, ngiliqoqe emazweni elihlakazekele kuwo, ngesandla esilamandla langengalo eyeluliweyo langolaka oluthululiweyo.
35 Pea te u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki he ‘Toafa ʻoe Kakai,’ pea te ta fai mo koe ʻi ai ko e mata ki he mata.
Njalo ngizaliletha enkangala yabantu, ngizaphikisana lani lapho ubuso ngobuso.
36 Hangē ko ʻeku fai mo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai ʻi he toafa ʻoe fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻe pehē ʻa ʻeku fai mo kimoutolu,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
Njengalokhu ngaphikisana laboyihlo enkangala yelizwe leGibhithe, ngokunjalo ngizaphikisana lani, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
37 “Pea te u pule ke mou ʻalu atu ʻi he lolo vaʻa ʻakau, pea te u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ke mou puke ki heʻeku fuakava:
Njalo ngizalidlulisa ngaphansi kwentonga, ngilingenise kusibopho sesivumelwano.
38 Pea te u fakamaʻa ʻakimoutolu mei ho kau angatuʻu mo kinautolu ʻoku fai angahala kiate au: Te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he fonua ʻoku nau ʻāunofo ai, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau hū atu ki he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli; pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au.
Ngihlanze ngikhuphe phakathi kwenu abavukeli lalabo abaphambeka bemelene lami, ngibakhuphe elizweni lokuhlala kwabo njengabezizwe, kodwa kabayikungena emhlabathini wakoIsrayeli. Khona lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
39 Pea ko e meʻa kiate kimoutolu, ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻAlu ʻakimoutolu, tauhi taki taha ki hono tamapua, ʻo fai ki mui foki, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou fanongo kiate au: kaeʻoua naʻa mou toe fakalieliaʻi ʻa hoku huafa tāpuhā ʻi hoʻomou feilaulau, pea mo homou ngaahi tamapua.
Lina-ke, ndlu kaIsrayeli, itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova, hambani likhonze, ngulowo lalowo izithombe zakhe, langemva kwalokho, uba lingangilaleli; kodwa lingangcolisi futhi ibizo lami elingcwele ngezipho zenu langezithombe zenu.
40 Koeʻuhi ʻe tauhi au ʻe he fale kotoa ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi hoku moʻunga māʻoniʻoni, ʻi he moʻunga ʻoe māʻolunga ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: te u maʻu ʻakinautolu ʻi ai, pea te u ʻamanaki ʻi ai ki hoʻomou ngaahi feilaulau, mo e ʻinasi mei hoʻomou meʻa foaki, mo hoʻomou meʻa māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē.
Ngoba entabeni yami engcwele, entabeni yengqonga yakoIsrayeli, itsho iNkosi uJehova, lapho izangikhonza indlu yonke yakoIsrayeli, bonke elizweni; khona ngizabemukela, lakhona ngibize iminikelo yenu, lezithelo zokuqala zeminikelo yenu, lazo zonke izinto zenu ezingcwele.
41 Te u maʻu ʻakimoutolu mo hoʻomou namu kakala, ʻo kau ka ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai, pea tānaki ʻakimoutolu mei he ngaahi fonua ʻaia kuo mou hē ki ai, pea ʻe fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi au ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni.
Ngizalemukela ngephunga elimnandi nxa ngilikhupha ebantwini, ngiliqoqe emazweni ebelihlakazelwe kuwo; njalo ngizangcweliswa phakathi kwenu phambi kwamehlo ezizwe.
42 Pea te mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova, ʻo kau ka toe ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli, ki he fonua ko ia, naʻaku hiki hake ai hoku nima, ke foaki ia ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai.
Lizakwazi-ke ukuthi ngiyiNkosi, lapho sengilingenise emhlabathini wakoIsrayeli, elizweni engaliphakamisela isandla sami ukulinika oyihlo.
43 Pea te mou manatu ʻi ai ki homou ngaahi hala, pea mo hoʻomou faianga, ʻaia kuo mou fakalielia ai; pea te mou fehiʻa kiate kimoutolu ʻi homou ʻao pe ʻomoutolu, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi kovi ʻaia kuo mou fai.
Lapho-ke lizakhumbula izindlela zenu lezenzo zenu zonke, elazingcolisa ngazo; njalo lizazenyanya phambi kobuso benu ngenxa yazo zonke izinto ezimbi elizenzileyo.
44 Pea te mou ʻilo, ko au, ko Sihova, ʻo kau ka ngāue kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ko hoku huafa, ka ʻe ʻikai ke hangē ko homou ngaahi hala kovi, pe hangē ko hoʻomou fai fakalielia, ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli; ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
Beselisazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi, nxa ngenze kini ngenxa yebizo lami, hatshi njengokwezindlela zenu ezimbi, kumbe njengokwezenzo zenu zenkohlakalo, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
45 Pea naʻe hoko mai foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi lisithi:
46 “Foha ʻoe tangata, fakahanga ho mata ki he feituʻu tonga, pea tuku hoʻo lea ki he feituʻu tonga, pea ke kikite ki he vao ʻakau ʻoe ngoue ʻi he feituʻu tonga;
Ndodana yomuntu, misa ubuso bakho ngasendleleni yeningizimu, utshumayele ngaseningizimu, uprofethe umelene legusu lensimu yeningizimu;
47 Pea lea ki he vao ʻakau ʻi he feituʻu tonga, Fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova; ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai, te u tutu ʻae afi ʻiate koe, pea ʻe maumau ai ʻae ʻakau mata kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate koe, mo e ʻakau mōmoa kotoa pē; ʻe ʻikai fuʻifuʻi ʻae afi ulo, pea ʻe mangia ai ʻae mata kotoa pē, mei he feituʻu tonga ʻo ʻalu ki he tokelau.
uthi kilo igusu leningizimu: Zwana ilizwi leNkosi: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngizaphemba umlilo phakathi kwakho, njalo uzaqeda phakathi kwakho sonke isihlahla esiluhlaza laso sonke isihlahla esomileyo; ilangabi elivuthayo kaliyikucitshwa, kodwa kuzatshiswa ngalo bonke ubuso kusukela eningizimu kuze kufike enyakatho.
48 Pea ʻe mamata ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ko au, ko Sihova, kuo tutu ia; pea ʻe ʻikai fuʻifuʻi ia.”
Futhi yonke inyama izabona ukuthi mina Nkosi ngiwuphembile, kawuyikucitshwa.
49 Pea naʻaku toki pehē ai, “ʻOiauē, ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua! ʻOku nau pehē kiate au, ‘ʻIkai ʻoku lea ia ʻi he fakatātā pe?’”
Ngasengisithi: Hawu, Nkosi Jehova! Bathi ngami: Kakhulumi imifanekiso yini?
