UJobe 37 - Ndebele Contemporary Bible 2022

U-Elihu Uqhubeka Ekhuluma

1“Konke lokhu kwenza inhliziyo yami itshaye

ize itshede endaweni yayo.

2Lalela! Lalela ukubhonga kwelizwi lakhe,

ukuzamazama okuphuma emlonyeni wakhe.

3Uyawukhulula umbane wakhe ngaphansi kwawo wonke amazulu

awuthumele emikhawulweni yomhlaba.

4Ngemva kwalokho kuza umdumo wokubhonga kwakhe;

uduma ngelizwi lakhe lobukhosi.

Nxa ilizwi lakhe seliqaqamba

ulikhulula lonke angaligodli.

5Ilizwi likaNkulunkulu liduma ngezindlela ezimangalisayo;

wenza izinto ezinkulu ngaphezu kokuzwisisa kwethu.

6Utshela ungqwaqwane athi, ‘Khithika phezu komhlaba,’

lezulu athi kulo, ‘Thululeka ube yisihlambo esikhulu.’

7Ukuze kuthi bonke abantu abadalayo bakwazi ukusebenza kwakhe,

uyamisa umuntu wonke emsebenzini wakhe.

8Izinyamazana ziyacatsha;

zihlale ezikhundleni zazo.

9Isiphepho siyaphuma ekamelweni laso,

umqando uphume entshongolweni esikayo.

10Ukuphefumula kukaNkulunkulu kukhupha iliqhwa,

amanzi aluwaca ajiye abe yilitshe.

11Ugcwalisa amayezi ngamanzi;

ahlakaze umbane wakhe ngawo.

12Ngokuqondisa kwakhe ayaqhela embese umhlaba wonke

ukuze enze loba yini awalaya yona.

13Uyawaletha amayezi ajezise ngawo abantu,

loba ukuthelezela umhlaba wakhe ukuze atshengise uthando lwakhe.

14Lalela lokhu, Jobe;

akume ukhumbule izimangaliso zikaNkulunkulu.

15Uyakwazi na ukuthi uNkulunkulu uwalawula njani amayezi

enze umbane wakhe ulavuke?

16Uyakwazi na ukuthi amayezi emi njani elengile,

leyomimangaliso yakhe yena lowo opheleleyo elwazini?

17Wena oginqiswa yikutshisa kwezigqoko zakho

nxa umhlaba uthule zwi kubetha umoya waseningizimu,

18ungamncedisa yini ukwendlala isibhakabhaka,

esilukhuni njengesibuko sensimbi yethusi?

19Ake usitshele ukuthi pho sithini kuye;

ngeke siyimise kuhle indaba yethu ngoba kumnyama nje lapha kithi.

20Atshelwe kambe ukuthi ngifuna ukukhuluma?

Ukhona umuntu ongacela ukuthi aginywe?

21Phela kakho ongalikhangela ilanga,

njengoba licazimula kangaka esibhakabhakeni

nxa umoya uwaphephule wonke amayezi kwacethula.

22Esuka enyakatho uqhamuka ngenkazimulo enjengegolide;

uNkulunkulu uqhamuka ngobukhosi obesabekayo.

23USomandla asingeke simfinyelele njalo uphakeme ulamandla;

ekwahluleleni kwakhe okuhle lokulunga okukhulu kancindezeli.

24Ngakho-ke abantu bayamhlonipha,

ngoba kanti kabanaki yini bonke abahlakaniphileyo enhliziyweni?”
