IZAGA 28 - IsiNdebele 2012 Translation

1Okhohlakeleko ubaleka nanyana kungekho omgijimisako,

kodwana abalungileko banesibindi njengebhubezi.

2Ilizwe nalinokuvukelana, vane linababusi abanengi,

kodwana onengqondo nelwazi wenza kube nokuthula.

3Ochakileko nagandelela abachakileko,

ufana nezulu elirhurhula litjhiye kungasenasivuno.

4Abalahla umthetho badumisa iinkhohlakali,

kodwana abawugcinako balwisana nazo.

5Abantu abonakeleko abakuzwisisi ukulunga,

kodwana abafuna uSomnini bakuzwisisa ngokupheleleko.

6Singcono isichaka esineendlela ezimsulwa

kunenjinga eneendlela ezikhohlakeleko.

7Ogcina umthetho mntwana ozwisisako,

kodwana umkhozi wamahlongandlebe uhlazisa uyise.

8Owandisa umnonwakhe ngenzalo ehlukahlukeneko,

uyibuthela omunye ozakuba nomusa kabachakileko.

9Ofulatheza indlebakhe kobana angezwa umthetho,

ngitjho nemithandazwakhe isinyenyiso.

10Orholela abaqotho eendleleni zobukhohlakali,

uzakurhohlomela ngemgodini azenzele wona,

kodwana abamsulwa bazakufumana ilifa elihle.

11Injinga ingazitjela bona ihlakaniphile,

kodwana isichaka esinokuzwisisa sibona amaqhingayo.

12Abalungileko lokha nabajekezelako,

kuba nedumo elikhulu,

kodwana abakhohlakeleko nababa barholi,

abantu bayabhaca.

13Ofihla iimphambeko zakhe akaphumeleli,

kodwana ozivumako abe azitjhiye ufunyana isirhawu.

14Ubusisiwe umuntu ohlala esaba uSomnini njalo,

kodwana oqinisa ihliziywakhe uwela engozini.

15Njengebhubezi elibhodlako namkha ibhere elibhozomelako,

unjalo nokhohlakeleko nabusa phezu kwabadududu.

16Umbusi onganangqondo

udlondlobala ngokususa abantu elifeni labo,

kodwana ozonda inzuzo engakalungi

uzakwandisa amalangakhe.

17Umuntu owurubajwa sisazela sokubulala,

uzakuhlala abalekela ethuneni;

akungabi nomuntu omvimbako.

18Onekambo emsulwa uyaphepha,

kodwana oneendlela zokonakala uzakuwa msinyana.

19Otjheja amasimakhe uzakuba nenala,

kodwana ogijimisana nelize uzakuba nobuchaka.

20Othembakeleko uzakuba neembusiso ezinengi,

kodwana opharhazela kobana anjinge,

uzakuhlunguphazwa.

21Akusikuhle ukukhetha ubuso ekugwebeni,

kodwana umuntu uyaphambuka

ukuze afumane igedzwana lesikwa.

22Umuntu odimanako upharhazela bona anjinge,

kodwana akayeleli bonyana ubuchaka bumlindele.

23Osola umuntu, ekugcineni uzakufumana umusa

ukudlula loyo onelimu elibutjhelelezi.

24Odlelezela uyise nanyana unina

bese athi, “Akusiso isiphambeko lokho”,

umukhozi waloyo obhubhisako.

25Umuntu omarhamaru uvusa ukucabana,

kodwana othembela kuSomnini uzakunotha.

26Othembela ekwazini kwakhe usidlhadlha,

kodwana okhamba ngokuhlakanipha uyaphepha.

27Opha abachakileko, angeze aswela litho,

kodwana obadima amehlo

ufumana amanikelela amanengi.

28Iinkhohlakali naziba barholi, abantu bayabhaca;

kodwana nazibhubhako, abalungileko bayanda.
