Selemaia 47
1 Ko e folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻe hoko kia Selemaia ko e palōfita ki he kau Filisitia, ʻi he teʻeki ai ke taaʻi ʻe Felo ʻa Kesa.
Ilizwi leNkosi elafika kuJeremiya umprofethi limelene lamaFilisti, uFaro engakatshayi iGaza.
2 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; “Vakai, ʻoku tupu ʻae ngaahi vai mei he tokelau, pea ʻe hoko ia ko e vai fonu mahakehake lahi, pea ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae fonua pea mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai: ko e kolo mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi ai: pea ʻe toki tangi ʻae kau tangata, pea ʻe tangilāulau ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua.
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela, amanzi azakhukhumala evela enyakatho, azakuba yisifula esikhukhulayo, akhukhule ilizwe lokugcwala kwalo, umuzi labahlala kiwo; labantu bazakhala, labo bonke abakhileyo belizwe bazaqhinqa isililo,
3 Ko e meʻa ʻi he patatū ʻae vaʻe ʻoe fanga hoosi mālohi, mo e meʻa ʻi he lele ʻae ngaahi saliote, pea mo e longoaʻa ʻo ʻene ngaahi saliote, ʻe ʻikai sio ki mui ʻae ngaahi tamai ki heʻenau fānau ko e meʻa ʻi he vaivai ʻa honau nima;
ngomsindo wokugidiza kwamasondo amabhiza akhe alamandla, ngomdumo wenqola zakhe, inhlokomo yamavili akhe; oyise kabanyemukuli kubantwana ngenxa yokuyekethiswa kwezandla;
4 Koeʻuhi ko e ʻaho ʻaia ʻoku haʻu ke fakaʻauha ai ʻae kau Filisitia kotoa pē, pea ke tuʻusi mei Taia mo Saitone ʻae tokoni kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku toe: koeʻuhi ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe Sihova ʻae kau Filisitia, ko e toenga ʻoe fonua ko Kafitoli.
ngenxa yosuku oluzayo ukuchitha wonke amaFilisti, ukuquma asuke eTire leSidoni wonke umsizi oseleyo; ngoba iNkosi izawachitha amaFilisti, insali yesihlenge seKafitori.
5 Kuo hoko ʻae tula ki Kesa; kuo tuʻusi ʻa ʻAsikiloni mo e toenga ʻi honau teleʻa: ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo hoʻo maumauʻi koe ʻe koe?
Ubumpabanga sebufikile eGaza, iAshikeloni iqunyiwe, insali yesihotsha sabo; uzazisika kuze kube nini?
6 “‘ʻA koe ko e heletā ʻo Sihova, ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa pea ke toki fiemālie? Ke ke ʻai koe ki ho ʻaiʻanga, pea mālōlō, mo fiemālie.
Hawu, nkemba yeNkosi; koze kube nini ungathuli? Zibuthele emgodleni wakho, phumula, uthule.
7 “ʻE fēfē ʻene fiemālie, he kuo fekauʻi ia ʻe Sihova ki ʻAsikiloni, pea mo e matātahi? Kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ia ki ai.”
Ungathula njani, lapho iNkosi iyilawulile? Imelene leAshikeloni, imelene lokhumbi lolwandle, lapho iyimisele khona.
