UJOROMIYA 5 - IsiNdebele 2012 Translation

Akakho noyedwa oqotho

1“Yehlani nenyuke neendledlana zeJerusalema,

niqale ngapha nangapha niyelele,

nifunisise ematatawini wakhona,

nibone bonyana ningafumana umuntu

owenza okufaneleko,

ophikelela ekwethembekeni,

khona-ke ngizakucolela idorobheli.

2Nanyana abantwabo basithi,

‘Sifunga ngepilo kaSomnini’,

basafunga ngekohliso.”

3Somnini, wena uqala ukwethembeka!

Wabamadlha, kodwana azange bezwe ubuhlungu,

wabaqeda, kodwana bala ukusolwa.

Benza ubuso babo baqina ukudlula ilitje,

bala ukuphenduka.

4Ngadlumbana ngathi,

“Abantwaba ziinchaka, badlhayele

ngombana abayazi indlela kaSomnini,

iye, umthetho kaZimabo.

5Yeke ngizakuya eenkhulwini,

ngikhulumisane nazo,

zona kufuze ziyazi indlela kaSomnini,

iye, umthetho kaZimazo.”

Kodwana nazo zoke njalo

zephula ijogi, zidabula iimbopho.

6Ngalokho ibhubezi elivela ngehlathini

lizazibhozomela,

ipisi yerhalawumbeni iziqede.

Ingwe izazilalela eduze namadorobhazo,

kobana idabule iinquqwana

nanyana ngubani ophumako

ngombana ukuhlubuka kwazo kukhulu

nokuhlehla kwazo kwandile.

7USomnini uthi:

“Kubayini ngifanele ngikucolele,

wena Juda?

Abantwabakho bangilahlile,

bafunga ngozinyana ongekho.

Nasele ngibondlile, bahlobonga;

bazidlhunya ngekumbeni yesitjhatjha.

8Baziinjomani eziduna ezondlekileko nezindindako,

enye nenye elilela umfazi wenye indoda.

9Kumele ngingabahlunguphazi ngalokhu na?

Kumele ngingazibuyiseleli

esizweni esinjalo na?”

Kubuza uSomnini.

10“Khuphukelani embundwini,

eendiribeni zakwaJuda

bese niyarhayila;

ningakhawuli ukubhubhisa.

Phulani iingala zeendiribe

ngombana abantwaba abasi ngebakaSomnini.

11Mbala, ikumba ka-Israyeli neyakaJuda,

azange yethembeke nakanye kimi.”

Kutjho uSomnini.

12Baphike uSomnini bathi:

“Angekhe enze litho!

Akunangozi ezasehlela,

angeze sabona isabula namkha indlala.

13Abaphorofidi bazakuba mumoya;

ilizwi lakaZimu alikho kibo.”

Yeke akuthi abakutjhoko kwenzeke phezu kwabo.

14Ngalokho-ke nakhu okutjhiwo nguSomnini uZimu uMninimandlawoke:

“Ngebanga lokobana abantu bakhulume amezwi la,

qala, ngenza amezwami emlonyenakho abe mlilo,

abantwaba babe ziinkuni

baqothulwe mlilo lowo.”

15USomnini uthi:

“Wena kumba ka-Israyeli,

qala, sele ngizokuletha isizwe esivela kude

kobana sijamelane nawe;

iye, isizwe sakade nesizakuhlala sikhona,

okubabantu abanelimi eningalaziko

nabanekulumo eningayizwisisiko.

16Isilanda saso sifana nethuna elivulekileko,

boke bamadoda aziingorho.

17Bazakugoma isivuno kanye nokudla kwenu,

batle amadodana namadodakazenu.

Bazakurhiribidela izimvu, iimbuzi neenkomo zenu;

bagomojele iindiribe kanye namakhiwanenu.

Amadorobhenu anemithangala nenithembele kiwo,

bazawalalisa phasi ngesabula.”

18USomnini uthi: “Ngitjho nemalangeni la, angeze ngakhawula ukunibhubhisa.

19Abantu nababuza bathi, ‘Kubayini uSomnini uZimethu enze koke lokhu kithi na?’, uzakuthi kibo, ‘Njengombana ningihlubukile nayokulotjha abosingazimu enarhenenu, ngaleyondlela nizakulotjha imiqhamuka enarheni ekungasi ngeyenu.’ ”

20Bikani lokhu ekumbeni kaJakopo

nibuye nikuzwakalise kwaJuda:

21Lalelani lokhu nina bantu abaziindlhadlha nabanganagqondo,

abantu abanamehlo, kodwana bangaboni,

abaneendlebe, kodwana bangezwa.

22USomnini uthi:

“Aningesabi na?

Anithuthumeli phambi kwami,

mina engibeke itjhwabatjhwaba

yaba mkhawulo welwandle,

isimiso sasafuthi nelingeze laseqa na?

Amagagasi angakhephuzela

kodwana angeze asitjhidisa,

angabhodla kodwana angeze aseqa.

23Kodwana abantwaba

baneenhliziyo eziqinileko nezihlubukako,

baphambukile, banyelela.

24Eenhliziyweni zabo akukho ukuthi,

‘Asesabeni uSomnini uZimethu,

onisa izulu ngesikhathi sakhona,

iye, lesilimela nelesiruthwana;

oqinisekisa ngeemveke ezibekiweko zesivuno.’

25Kodwana amacalenu akuphambukisile lokho

nezono zenu ziniphundise ubuhle.

26Phakathi kwabantu bami kuneenkhohlakali:

Zibadalele njengabantu abacuphe iinyoni,

zibeka isifu, zibambe abantu.

27Njengesiqwebu esigcwele iinyoni,

zinjalo neenkumba zazo

zigcwele ipahla yekohliso.

Ngebangelo ziphenduke iinkhulu neenjinga.

28Iye, zinonile, zinemikhaba, ziyaphumelela!

Ngezenzo zazo ezimbi sezidlulelele!

Azisakhuphi iingwebo:

Indaba yeentandani

nomlandu wabachakileko azisawuyeleli.”

29USomnini uthi:

“Alo, kumele ngingabahlunguphazi ngalokhu na?

Ngingazibuyiseleli phezu kwesizwe esinjengalesi na?

30Kunento erarako nethusako

eyenzekako enarheni:

31Abaphorofidi baphorofida ngehloso yamanga,

abaphristi babusa ngegunya labo;

nje-ke abantu bami bathanda khona lokho.

Alo-ke, yini okhunye enizokwenza

emva kwalokhu na?”
