uThixo, indawo yokhuseleko

1Yiyo le intsikelelo, awabasikelela ngayo uMoses, umfo wakwaThixo, oonyana bakaSirayeli, engekafi.

2Wathi, uYehova wavela eSinayi, wabakhupha kwaSehire; Wabengezela esezintabeni zaseParan, weza neshumi lamawaka abantu bengcwele; ekunene kwakhe ngumthetho womlilo kubo.

3Ewe, wayebathanda abantu; Bonke abangcwele bakhe basezandleni zenu, yaye bahleli ezinyaweni zenu; bonke baya kuwamkela amazwi akho.

4uMoses wasiwisela umyalelo, Ilifa ke elo lebandla lakwaYakobi.

5Waba ngukumkani kwaYeshurun, Ekuzihlanganiseni iintloko zabantu, nezizwe zakwaSirayeli.

6uRubhen makadle ubomi, angafi; kwaye amadoda akhe makangabi buthathaka.

7Yiyo le intsikelelo kaYuda: yaye wathi: “Yehova, liphulaphule ilizwi likaYuda, uze umzise kubantu bakowabo; iingalo zakhe zimnele; Umncede ezintshabeni zakhe.

8Wathi uLevi, IiTumim zakho neeUrim zakho mazibe koyiNgcwele wakho, Owamlingayo eMasa, Owamnyulayo emanzini aseMeribha;

9Lowo wathi kuyise nakunina, Andimbonanga; yaye akabazi abantakwabo, akabazi nabantwana bakhe, ngenxa yokuba baligcina ilizwi lakho nomnqophiso wakho.

10Baya kumyala uYakobi ngamasiko akho, bamfundise uSirayeli umyalelo wakho; baqhumisele phambi kwakho, baqhumisele ngamadini anyukayo esibingelelweni sakho.

11Dumisani, Yehova, ukulunga kwakhe, Yamkelani imisebenzi yezandla zakhe; wababetha esinqeni abo basukela phezulu kuye, nabamthiyayo, bangabi savuka.

12NgoBhenjamin wathi, Intanda kaYehova iya kuhlala kuye ikholosile; yaye uYehova uya kumgubungela yonke imihla, yaye uya kuhlala phakathi kwamagxa akhe.

13Wathi uYosefu, uYehova makalisikelele ilizwe lakhe ngezinto ezinqabileyo zezulu, nangombethe, naphezu komlambo wamanzi asezantsi;

14nakwiziqhamo ezilungileyo eziveliswa lilanga, nakwiziqhamo ezilungileyo eziveliswa yinyanga.

15Ngezinto ezinqwenelekayo zeentaba zamandulo, Nezinto ezinqabileyo ezisezintabeni ezihlala zihleli;

16Ngokuphathelele izinto ezinqwenelekayo zehlabathi nenzaliseko yalo nokukholisa lowo uhlala emahlathini: Intsikelelo mayibe entlokweni kaYosefu nasentlokweni yalowo wahlukanisiweyo naye abazalwana.

17Eyamazibulo inkunzi yakhe, ubungangamsha bayo, neempondo zayo zinjengeempondo zenqu; ngoko ke uya kubatyhala abantu kude kuse eziphelweni zehlabathi; yaye bangamawaka alishumi akwaEfrayim, yaye bangamawaka akwaManase.

18Ngokusingisele kuZebhulon wathi, Yiba nemihlali, Zebhulon, ngenxa yokumka kwakho; noIsakare ezintenteni zakho.

19Baya kubizela entabeni iintlanga; baya kubingelela khona imibingelelo yobulungisa; ngokuba besanya ubutyebi baselwandle nobuncwane obufihliweyo entlabathini.

20NgoGadi wathi, Makabongwe owandisa uGadi; uhleli njengengonyama, esolula isandla sakhe elukakayini lwentloko yakhe.

21Wazinyulela isahlulo esiyingqalo; ngokuba besihleli khona isabelo sommisi-mthetho; Wabazisa iintloko zabantu, wenza ubulungisa bukaYehova, namasiko akhe kwaSirayeli.

22Wathi yena uDan, uDan yingonyama; uya kubonakala eBhashan.

23Wathi yena uNafetali, Nafetali, yaneliseke yintsikelelo kaYehova; owasentshona nomzantsi.

24Wathi uAshere, Usikelelwe ngoonyana uAshere; Makamkeleke kubazalwana bakhe, athi nkxu unyawo lwakhe eolini.

25Iimbadada zakho mazibe yintsimbi nobhedu; kube njengemihla yakho ukuqina kwakho.

26Akukho unjengoThixo, Yeshurun, unyuka emazulwini ukuba ancede, Nokuphakama kwakhe emazulwini.

27Likhaya uThixo wamandulo, Ngaphantsi ziingalo ezingunaphakade; wolugxotha utshaba phambi kwenu; bathi, Batshabalalise.

28uSirayeli uya kuhlala yedwa ekonwabayo; Iqula likaYakobi liya kuba sezweni lengqolowa nelewayini; nesibhakabhaka sakhe siya kuwisa umbethe.

29Unoyolo, Sirayeli, onjengawe, luhlanga oluhlawulelweyo nguYehova, Ikhaka loncedo lwakho, Ikrele lobukhulu bakho zofunyanwa zixoka kuni iintshaba zenu; yaye uya kuzinyathela iindawo zabo eziphakamileyo.
