UJOBHO 5 - IsiNdebele 2012 Translation

U-Elifasi usakhuluma

1“Nawubizako, uzakuphendulwa ngubani?

Ngisiphi seendalwa zezulu ozakuphendukela kiso na?

2Ngambala itukuthelo kaZimu iyasibulala isidlhadlha

nesikhwele sakhe simadlha isidlhamatletle.

3Mina ngikhe ngabona isidlhadlha siphumelela,

khonapho ikumbaso yaba sisiga sokuthuwelelisa.

4Abantwabaso abakavikeleki,

indababo ayithathwa ebandla,

akakho obasekelako.

5Isivuno saso sigonywa bomalambana,

basithuthela hlangana nameva;

imigulukudu leyo irharhela ilifa laso.

6Ngambala ukonakala akuveli ethulini

nehlekelele ayiqubuki equlwanini:

7Umuntu unemvelo yokonakala asabelethwa

njengombana kuyimvelo yedlanga ukuphaphela phezulu.

8“Thana benginguwe, bengizazifunela uZimu,

ngethule kuye indabami.

9Nguye ongumenzi wokukhulu nokungahlathululekiko

okuzizinto ezimkariso nezinganasibalo:

10Unisa izulu phezu komhlaba,

athumele amanzi phezu kwemimango

11ukuze aphakamisele phezulu labo abaphasi,

abalilako abanyusele ekwenameni.

12Utjharaganisa amaqhinga wamaqili,

ukuze izandla zawo zingaphumeleli.

13Abahlakaniphileko ubabamba ngobuqili babo,

amaqhinga wamaqili apheliswe msinyana.

14Emini bahlangana nobumnyama,

baphumbuthe inga kusebusuku.

15Iye, uZimu usindisa abadududu esabuleni,

emlonyeni nezandleni zabanamandla,

16ukuze abakhwahlileko babe nethemba

begodu ukungalungi kuvaleke umlomo.

17“Tjheja-ke, ubusisiwe umuntu okhalinywa nguZimu,

yeke unganyazi ukusolwa ngoSabekako.

18Iye, ubanga ubuhlungu,

kodwana uyapholisa,

godu amadlhe,

kodwana isandla sakhe sibuye selaphe.

19Uzakwenyula kasithandathu ematshwenyekweni,

nakwesikhomba kungabi nobumbi obukuthintako.

20Nakunendlala uzakuhlenga ekufeni,

nakunepi akuhlenge emandleni wesabula.

21Uzakuvikeleka elimini elinesihlungu,

ungesabi ukubhujiswa nakukufikelako.

22Uzakuhleka ukubhujiswa nendlala,

angeze waba nevalo ngeembandana zephasi;

23ngombana uzakuba nesivumelwano neenlwana,

iimbandana zommango zilawulwe nguwe.

24Uzakwazi bonyana itende lakho liphephile,

nawuhlola ipahlakho, kungabikho elahlekileko.

25Godu uzakwazi

bona iinzukulwana zakho zizakwanda,

nabantwabakho bahlume njengotjani ehlabathini.

26Ithuna lakho lizakwamukela sele ukhulile,

kube njengesithala sekoroyi

nasiwela eselelweni ngesikhathi sakhona.

27Iye, sikuhlolile lokhu, yeke kuliqiniso.

Kulalele, ulemuke bese uyakusebenzisa.”
