Soeli 3
1 “Vakai, koeʻuhi ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, pea ʻi he kuonga ko ia, ʻaia te u toe ʻomi ai ʻae pōpula ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema,
“Ngalezonsuku langalesosikhathi, lapho sengibuyisela inotho kaJuda leJerusalema,
2 Te u tānaki foki ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea te u ʻomi ki lalo ʻakinautolu ki he teleʻa ʻo Sihosafate, pea te u fakamaauʻi ʻakinautolu koeʻuhi ko hoku kakai, pea mo hoku tofiʻa ko ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo nau fakamovetevete ki he ngaahi puleʻanga, pea vaheʻi hoku fonua.
ngizaqoqa izizwe zonke ngizehlisele eSigodini sikaJehoshafathi. Lapho-ke ngizazahlulela mayelana lelifa lami, abantu bami u-Israyeli ngoba zahlakazela abantu bami phakathi kwezizwe, zabelana ilizwe lami.
3 Pea kuo nau talotalo ki hoku kakai: pea kuo nau foaki ha tamasiʻi ke maʻu ʻaki ha fefine feʻauaki, pea nau fakatau ʻae taʻahine maʻa e uaine, koeʻuhi ke nau inu.
Zenza inkatho ngabantu bami, zathenga izifebe ngabafana; zathengisa amankazana ngewayini ukuze zinathe.
4 “ʻIo, pea ko e hā ʻamoutolu ke mo fai mo au, ʻe Taia mo Saitone, pea mo e matātahi kotoa pē ʻo Palesitaine? Te mou totongi kiate au? Pea kapau te mou totongi mai, ʻe mātuʻaki vave mo toʻotoʻo ʻeku toe ʻatu hoʻomou totongi ki homou tumuʻaki;
Manje-ke lisolani ngami, wena Thire loSidoni lani lonke zifunda zaseFilistiya? Liyangiphindisela ngolutho engilwenzileyo na? Nxa lingiphindisela, ngizaphanga ngibuyisele elakwenzayo phezu kwamakhanda enu ngokuphangisa.
5 Koeʻuhi kuo mou ʻave ʻeku siliva mo ʻeku koula, pea kuo mou ʻave ki homou ngaahi fale fakaʻeiki ʻa ʻeku ngaahi meʻa matamatalelei mo ʻaonga:
Ngoba lathatha isiliva sami legolide lami lathwalela lenotho yami eligugu emathempelini enu.
6 Ko e fānau foki ʻa Siuta, pea mo e fānau ʻa Selūsalema kuo mou fakatau ki he kakai Kalisi, koeʻuhi ke mou fakahē mamaʻo ʻakinautolu mei honau mata fonua.
Lathengisa abantu bakoJuda laseJerusalema kumaGrikhi, ukuze libase khatshana lelizwe labo.
7 Vakai, te u hiki ʻakinautolu mei he potu ne mou fakatau ʻakinautolu ki ai, pea te u toe ʻatu hoʻomou totongi ki homou tumuʻaki:
Khangelani, ngizabavusa ezindaweni elabathengisa kuzo, njalo ngizabuyisela phezu kwamakhanda enu lokho elakwenzayo.
8 Pea te u fakatau homou ngaahi foha mo homou ngaahi ʻofefine ki he nima ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta, pea te nau fakatau ʻakinautolu ki he kakai Sapea, ki ha kakai mamaʻo atu: he kuo pehē ʻe Sihova.”
Ngizathengisa amadodana enu lamadodakazi enu ebantwini bakoJuda, njalo labo bazawathengisa kumaSabhini, isizwe esikhatshana.” UThixo usekhulumile.
9 “Fanongonongo eni ki he ngaahi Senitaile, “Teuteu ʻae tau, fakaʻā ʻae kau tangata mālohi, tuku ke unu mai ʻae kau tangata tau kotoa pē; ke nau ʻalu hake:
Memezelani lokhu ezizweni lithi: Lungiselani impi! Vusani amabutho! Wonke amadoda empi kasondele ahlasele.
10 Tuki ʻaki hoʻomou huo toho ʻae ngaahi heletā, pea mo hoʻomou ngaahi hele ʻauhani ʻae ngaahi tao: ke pehē ʻe he vaivai, ‘ʻoku ou mālohi;’
Khandani amakhuba enu abe zinkemba lemihedla yenu yokuthena izihlahla ibe yimikhonto. Obuthakathaka kathi, “Ngiqinile!”
11 Fakataha ʻakimoutolu, pea haʻu ʻakimoutolu ko e kau hiteni, pea tānaki takatakai ʻakimoutolu:” ʻE Sihova, ke hifo ʻi hena hoʻo kau mālohi:
Wozani ngokuphangisa, lonke lina zizwe zasezinhlangothini zonke, libuthane khonapho. Yehlisa amabutho akho, Oh Thixo!
12 “Ke ʻā ʻae hiteni, pea ʻalu hake ki he teleʻa ʻo Sihosafate: he te u nofo ʻi ai ke fakamaauʻi ʻae hiteni ʻoku nofo takatakai.
“Izizwe kazivuswe; kaziye eSigodini sikaJehoshafathi ngoba ngizahlala khona ukwehlulela izizwe zonke zasezinhlangothini zonke.
13 ʻAi ʻae hele tuʻusi, he kuo motuʻa ʻae taʻu: haʻu, pea ʻalu hifo; he kuo pito ʻae tataʻoʻanga, ʻoku mahuohua ʻae ngaahi puha fakatali; koeʻuhi ʻoku lahi ʻenau angahala.”
Hehethani ngesikela ngoba okuvunwayo sekuvuthiwe. Wozani, gxobani amavini, ngoba isikhamelo sewayini sesigcwele lezimbizakazi seziphuphuma, bukhulu kangaka ububi bazo!
14 Ko e fuʻu tokolahi, ko e fuʻu tokolahi ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe fakamaau: he ʻoku ofi ʻae ʻaho ʻo Sihova ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe fakamaau.
Amaxuku, amaxuku esigodini sesinqumo! Ngoba usuku lukaThixo luseduze esigodini sezinqumo.
15 ʻE fakapoʻuli ʻae laʻā mo e māhina, pea ʻe ʻikai ulo ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu.
Ilanga lenyanga kuzakuba mnyama, lezinkanyezi zingabe zisakhanya.
16 ʻE ʻuʻulu ʻa Sihova mei Saione, pea ʻe fakaongo hono leʻo mei Selūsalema; pea ʻe lulululu ʻae langi mo māmani: ka ko Sihova ko e ʻamanaki leleiʻanga ia ʻo hono kakai, pea ko e mālohiʻanga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
UThixo uzavungama eseZiyoni aphinde akhwaze eseJerusalema; umhlaba lomkhathi kuzagedezela. Kodwa uThixo uzakuba yisiphephelo sabantu bakhe, inqaba yabantu bako-Israyeli.”
17 “Pea te mou ʻilo ai ko au ko Sihova, ko homou ʻOtua ʻoku ʻafio ʻi Saione, ko hoku moʻunga tapu: pea ʻe toki māʻoniʻoni ʻa Selūsalema, pea ʻe ʻikai toe ʻalu ʻiate ia ha muli.
“Ngakho lizakwazi ukuthi mina, uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu, ngihlala eZiyoni, intaba yami engcwele. IJerusalema izakuba ngcwele; kayiyikuphinda ihlaselwe ngabezizweni futhi.
18 “Pea ʻe pehē ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ko e ngaahi moʻunga te nau toʻiʻi ʻae uaine foʻou, pea ʻe tafe ʻae huhuʻa ʻi he ngaahi tafungofunga, pea ko e ngaahi vaitafe kotoa pē ʻo Siuta ʻe tafe ai ʻae vai, pea ko e matavai ʻe pa mai mei he fale ʻo Sihova, pea fakavai ʻae teleʻa ʻo Sitimi.
Ngalolosuku izintaba zizagobhoza iwayini elitsha, lamaqaqa ageleze uchago; zonke indonga zakoJuda zizageleza amanzi. Umthombo uzantuntuza endlini kaThixo uthambise isigodi saseShithima.
19 ʻE lala ʻa ʻIsipite, pea ʻe hoko ʻa ʻItomi ko e toafa kuo lala, koeʻuhi ko e fakamālohi ki he fānau ʻa Siuta, he kuo nau lilingi ʻae toto taʻehalaia ʻi honau fonua.
Kodwa iGibhithe izachithakala, i-Edomi ibe yinkangala elugwadule, ngenxa yodlakela olwenziwa ebantwini bakoJuda lapho bachitha khona igazi elingelacala elizweni labo.
20 Ka ʻe nofo ʻa Siuta ʻo taʻengata, pea mo Selūsalema mei he toʻutangata ki he toʻutangata.
KoJuda kuzahlalwa khona kuze kube nininini laseJerusalema kuzahlala izizukulwane zonke.
21 Koeʻuhi te u fakamaʻa ʻae toto ʻi ai ʻoku teʻeki ai te u fakamaʻa: he ʻoku ʻafio ʻa Sihova ʻi Saione.”
Umlandu wabo wegazi, engingakaxoli ngawo, ngizabaxolela ngawo.”
