IZAGA 22 - IsiNdebele 2012 Translation

1Ibizo elihle lithandeka khulu kunomnono omnengi;

ukuhlonipheka kungcono kunesiliva negolide.

2Abanjingileko nabachakileko bafana ngalokhu:

Boke njalo badalwe nguSomnini.

3Ovuthiweko nabona ingozi uyabhaca,

kodwana abanganalwazi bayaragalala, bahlupheke.

4Umphumela wokuzithoba nokwesaba uSomnini

uletha umnono, idumo nepilo.

5Endleleni yokonakala kunameva nezifu,

kodwana owelusa umphefumulwakhe uba kude nalokho.

6Nawukhulisa umntwana ngendlela azakukhamba ngayo,

nasele akhulile, angeze aphambuka kiyo.

7Injinga ibusa phezu kweenchaka,

nobolekako ulikhoboka lobolekisanako.

8Otjala okuphambeneko, uvuna ihlekelele

neswazi letukuthelwakhe lizakutjhabalaliswa.

9Umuntu onesisa uzakubusiswa,

ngombana ukugoma kwakhe ukwabelana nabadududu.

10Nawuqotjha isinyefuli, kuphuma ukucabana,

ukumangalelana nehlamba kuyaphela.

11Othanda ihliziyo emsulwa nonekulumo enezwelo,

uzakuba mngani wekosi.

12Amehlo kaSomnini aqaphele ilwazi,

uphambanisa amezwi wongathembekiko.

13Ivila lithi: “Kunebhubezi ngaphandlapha!

Ngizokubulawa eendledlaneni!”

14Umlomo kanondindwa umugodi otjhingako wesifu,

onikelelwe nguSomnini urhohlomela ngakiwo.

15Ubudlhadlha bubotjhelelwe ehliziyweni yomntwana,

kodwana iswazi lokuyala libutjhidisela kude naye.

16Ogandelela ochakileko ngehloso

yokwandisa umnonwakhe,

nopha abanjingileko izipho,

bobabili njalo bagcina bachakile.

Izaga zabahlakaniphileko

17Yelela bese ulalela izitjho zabahlakaniphileko,

beka ingqondwakho kengikufundisako,

18ngombana kuzakarisa nawukubeka ehliziywenakho,

kuhlale kulungiselelekile emlonyenakho.

19Nawe ngikwazisa zona namhlanjesi

ukuze ithemba lakho libe kuSomnini.

20Angithi ngikutlolele izitjho ezimatjhumi amathathu,

iye, izitjho zokweluleka nokuhlakaniphisa,

21bonyana zikufundise iqiniso namezwi wokwethembeka

ukuze ube nependulo enqophileko kabakuthumileko.

22Ungadlelezeli ochakileko ngombana umbona achakile

begodu ungagadangeli odududu ebandla.

23Mbala uSomnini uzamumela onjalo emlandwini,

adlelezele labo abamdlelezelako.

24Ungakhi ubungani nomuntu onehliziywana,

ungazimanyanisi nomuntu orhaba ukuthukuthela,

25nakungasinjalo uzakufunda imikhubakhe,

ufake ipilwakho engozini yesifu.

26Ungabi hlangana nabenze isibopho

ngesiga sokuqhawulana,

iye, labo abenza isithembiso malungana neenkolodo.

27Nakube awunalitho lokukhokha,

kubayini omkolodako akuthathele umbhedakho

uqalile na?

28Ungatjhidisi isikhonkhwani sekadeni

esabekwa boyihlomkhulu.

29Uyambona umuntu onekghono emsebenzinakhe na?

Nguye-ke ozakusebenza phambi kwamakhosi,

akazukusebenza phambi kwabantukazana.
