1 “Namhlanje uBhele uthotyiwe; uNebho uwe bhaxa!*Oothixo ebenikade nijikeleza nabonamhlanje batyabula imiqolo yezilwanyana.Ngenene baluxanduva lomthwalo.
2 Nâzo izilwanyana zisiwa zivuka.Akukho kusinda kuzo;zithinjwa kunye nomthwalo wazo.
3 “I-i-i-nzwi ke wena, ndlu kaYakobi!Ndiphulaphuleni nina masalela endlu kaSirayeli,nina endanixhasa kwasekukhawulweni kwenu,ndaza ndanisingatha kwasekuzalweni kwenu.
4 Noda niguge nibe ziingwevumna ndisengulowo unixhasayo.Nenziwa ndim, ngoko ke ndonisingatha;ewe, ndonigcina ndinihlangule.
5 “Kodwa-kodwa ndolinganiswa nabani?Ngubani na onjengam endinokufaniswa naye?
6 Abantu bakhupha igolide engxoweni,isiliva bayilinganisa esikalini,basuke baqeshe ingcibi, ibenzele uthixo;kamva ke basuka bee guqaqa bamnqule.
7 Bambeka emagxeni, bamtyathe;bambeke endaweni yakhe, eme bhuxe.Kaloku yena lutiniko olungashukumiyo.Udl' imu noba umntu uyazibika kuye;akakwazi kuhlangula mntu ezingxakini.
8 “Khumbulani le nto nizikise;khaniyiguqu-guqule, nina bavukeli.
9 Khanikhumbule iziganeko zamandulo,nivume ukuba mna ndinguThixo;ewe, akukho thixo ufana nam.
10 Isiphelo ndasixela kwasekuqaleni;kwamandulo ndazivakalisa izinto ezizayo.Ndatsho ukuba icebo lam soze liwe,koko ndokufezekisa oko ndikumisileyo.
11 Mna ndibize umfo empumalanga;sisitshu esiya kurhiwula njengokhetshe.Yena woyifezekisa yonke injongo yam;njengoko ndithethile kuya kuba njalo kanye.
12 Phulaphulani, bantundini baneenkani,nina banxaxhileyo elusindisweni.
13 Umhla wosindiso wona ndiyawusondeza;ngenene awukude kuya phi.Ukusindisa kwam akuyi kulibazisa;ewe, ndiza kuyihlangula iZiyon,uSirayeli ndimzisele isidima nesithozela.”
