< 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,
Ngoba khangela, ngalezonsuku langalesosikhathi lapho ngibuyisa ukuthunjwa kukaJuda 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.
ngizabutha zonke izizwe, ngizehlisele esigodini sikaJehoshafathi, ngizigwebe khona ngenxa yabantu bami lelifa lami uIsrayeli, ezibahlakaze phakathi kwezizwe, zalaba 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 yokuphosa ngabantu bami, zanika umfana ngewule, zathengisa inkazana 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;
Yebo-ke, lilani kimi, Tire leSidoni, lani lonke mingcele yeFilisti? Lizangibuyisela umvuzo yini? Uba-ke lingibuyisela, masinyane ngokuphangisa ngizabuyisela umvuzo wenu ekhanda lenu.
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 lithethe isiliva sami legolide lami, laletha izinto zami eziloyisekayo ezinhle 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 abantwana bakoJuda labantwana beJerusalema ebantwaneni bamaGriki, ukuze libasusele khatshana lomngcele wabo.
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 endaweni elabathengisa kiyo, ngibuyisele umvuzo wenu ekhanda lenu.
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.”
Njalo ngizathengisa amadodana enu lamadodakazi enu esandleni sabantwana bakoJuda, abazabathengisa kumaSabeya esizweni esikhatshana; ngoba iNkosi ikhulumile.
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 phakathi kwezizwe; lingcwelise impi; livuse amaqhawe; kawasondele enyuke wonke amadoda empi.
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 yizinkemba, lengqamu zenu zokuthena zibe yimikhonto; obuthakathaka athi: Ngiliqhawe.
11 Fakataha ʻakimoutolu, pea haʻu ʻakimoutolu ko e kau hiteni, pea tānaki takatakai ʻakimoutolu:” ʻE Sihova, ke hifo ʻi hena hoʻo kau mālohi:
Phangisani lize, lina zizwe zonke ezizingelezeleyo, libuthane; Nkosi, yehlisa amaqhawe akho kuleyondawo.
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.
Kazizivuse izizwe zenyukele esihotsheni sikaJehoshafathi; ngoba kulapho engizahlala khona ukugweba zonke izizwe inhlangothi 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.”
Fakani isikela, ngoba isivuno sivuthiwe; wozani lehlele phansi, ngoba isikhamelo sewayini sigcwele, amafatshi ewayini ayaphuphuma, ngoba ububi babo bukhulu.
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 esihotsheni sesinqumo; ngoba usuku lweNkosi luseduze esihotsheni sesinqumo.
15 ʻE fakapoʻuli ʻae laʻā mo e māhina, pea ʻe ʻikai ulo ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu.
Ilanga lenyanga kuzakuba mnyama, lezinkanyezi zigodle ukukhanya kwazo.
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.
INkosi izabhonga-ke iseZiyoni, ikhuphe ilizwi layo iseJerusalema, kunyikinyeke amazulu lomhlaba. Kodwa iNkosi ibe yisiphephelo sabantu bayo, lamandla abantwana bakoIsrayeli.
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.
Ngalokho lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi, uNkulunkulu wenu, ohlala eZiyoni, intaba yobungcwele bami. Njalo iJerusalema izakuba yibungcwele, labezizwe kabasayikudlula phakathi kwayo.
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.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku izintaba zithontise iwayini elimnandi, lamaqaqa ageleze uchago, lazo zonke izifula zakoJuda zigeleze amanzi, lomthombo uphume endlini yeNkosi, uthelele isihotsha seShithimi.
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.
IGibhithe izakuba lunxiwa, leEdoma ibe yinkangala elunxiwa, ngenxa yodlakela olumelene labantwana bakoJuda, ngoba bachithe igazi elingelacala elizweni labo.
20 Ka ʻe nofo ʻa Siuta ʻo taʻengata, pea mo Selūsalema mei he toʻutangata ki he toʻutangata.
Kodwa uJuda uzahlala kuze kube nininini, leJerusalema kuze kube yisizukulwana lesizukulwana.
21 Koeʻuhi te u fakamaʻa ʻae toto ʻi ai ʻoku teʻeki ai te u fakamaʻa: he ʻoku ʻafio ʻa Sihova ʻi Saione.”
Ngoba ngizahlanza igazi labo, engangingalihlanzanga; ngoba iNkosi ihlala eZiyoni.
