AMARHUBO 50 - IsiNdebele 2012 Translation

UZimu ugweba abantu bakhe

1Irhubo laka-Asafa.

UZimu ongaphezu kwabosingazimu

okutjho uSomnini, uyakhuluma;

ubiza iphasi kusukela epumalanga

bekube setjingalanga.

2Kusukela eZiyoni elipheleleko ngobuhle,

uZimu ukhanya ngokudarhileko.

3UZimethu uyeza begodu angeze athula,

phambi kwakhe kunomlilo oqothulako,

uphahlwe siwuruwuru esesabekako.

4Ubiza amazulu phezulu kanye nephasi

kobana agwebe abantu bakhe,

5athi: “Ngibuthelani abathembekileko bami,

labo abenza isivumelwano nami ngomhlabelo.”

6Amazulu amemezela ukulunga kwakhe,

athi: “Mbala, uZimu umugwebi!”

7UZimu uthi:

“Yizwani nina bantu bami, ngizakukhuluma,

wena Israyeli, ngizakufakaza ngokujamelana nawe.

NginguZimu, uZimakho.

8Angikukhalimi ngebanga lemihlabelwakho, Israyeli.

Imihlabelwakho yokutjhiswa ihlala iphambi kwami njalo.

9Angidingi ukuthatha ikunzi emizinenu,

namkha iimbuzi eembayeni zenu

10ngombana zingezami zoke iinyamazana zehlathi

neenkomo ezisemibundwini eyikulungwana.

11Ngazi zoke iinyoni zeentatjana

neenkhakhabi zommango zingezami.

12Ibe thana bengilamba, bengingeze nganitjela

ngombana iphasi nakho koke okukilo kungekwami.

13Kanti mina ngidla inyama yeenkunzi,

ngisele iingazi zeembuzi na?

14Yenzani ukuthokoza kwenu kube mhlabelo kuZimu,

niphethe iinthembiso zenu kongoPhezulu.

15Ngibizani ngelanga lembandezeleko,

mina ngizanitjhaphulula,

nina nizangihlonipha.”

16Kodwana kokhohlakeleko uZimu uthi:

“Unelungelo liphi lokumemezela iimiso zami

bewukhulume ngesivumelwano sami na?

17Wena uzonda ukusolwa

namezwami uwaphayela ngemva kwakho.

18Lokha nawubona isela, uvumelana nalo;

umdibi munye neenhlobongi.

19Uliselela umlomakho kibo boke ubumbi,

ubophele ilimu lakho ekohlisweni.

20Uditjha ngokunyefula umfowenu,

uhlebe umntwanakwenu.

21Nawenza lokhu, kufuze ngithule na?

Udlumbana bona nami ngifana nawe?

Awa, ngiyakukhalima,

ngibeke iimphambeko zakho phambi kwakho.

22“Yelelani indaba le,

nina enikhohlwa uZimu,

nakungasinjalo ngizanidabula,

kutlhogeke nomenyeli.

23Loyo oletha ukuthokoza njengomnikelwakhe,

uyangihlonipha;

owenza ngendlela leyo,

ngizomambulela isindiso kaZimu.”
