1Wena ulungile izikhathi zonke,
Oh Thixo, lapho ngiletha indaba kuwe.
Ikanti ngingakhuluma lawe ngokulunga kwakho:
Kungani indlela yababi iphumelela na?
Kungani abangathembekanga behlezi kuhle na?
2Ubahlanyele, njalo sebemilile;
bayakhula bathele izithelo.
Bahlezi bekhuluma ngawe,
kodwa ezinhliziyweni zabo ukhatshana.
3Kodwa mina, Oh Thixo, uyangazi;
uyangibona uhlole imicabango yami ngawe.
Bahudule njengezimvu eziyahlatshwa!
Bamisele usuku lokubulawa!
4Koze kube nini ilizwe lomile
lotshani iganga lonke bubunile?
Ngenxa yokuthi labo abahlala kulo babi,
izinyamazana lezinyoni sezibhubhile.
Kanti futhi abantu bathi,
“Kasoze akubone okwenzakala kithi.”
Impendulo KaNkulunkulu5“Nxa ugijime labantu ngezinyawo
bakudinisa,
ungancintisana njani lamabhiza na?
Nxa ukhubeka elizweni elingelangozi,
pho uzakwanelisa njani ezixukwini zaseJodani na?
6Abafowenu, abendlu yakwenu
labo futhi bakunikele;
baklabalale batsho okubi ngawe.
Ungabathembi,
lanxa bekhuluma kuhle ngawe.
7Indlu yami ngizayitshiya,
ngilidele ilifa lami;
lowo engimthandayo
ngizamnikela ezandleni zezitha zakhe.
8Ilifa lami kimi selibe
njengesilwane ehlathini.
Liyangihwabhela;
ngakho ngiyalizonda.
9Ilifa lami kimi kaselibe
njengenyoni emabalabala edla inyama ehanqwa
ngezinye izinyoni ezidla inyama, ziyihlasela na?
Hamba uyebutha zonke izinyamazana zeganga;
uzilethe ukuba zidle.
10Abelusi abanengi bazasichitha isivini sami
bagandele insimu yami;
bazaguqula insimu yami enhle
ibe lugwadule oluphundlekileyo.
11Izakwenziwa ugwadule,
yome iphundlekile phambi kwami;
ilizwe lonke lizachitheka
ngoba kakho olinakayo.
12Emiqolweni yonke engelalutho enkangala
abachithi bazaphithizela,
ngoba inkemba kaThixo
izakudla kusukela komunye umkhawulo welizwe kusiya komunye;
kakho ozavikeleka.
13Bazahlanyela ingqoloyi kodwa bavune ameva;
bazazidinisa kodwa bangazuzi lutho.
Ngakho wobani lenhloni ngesivuno senu
ngenxa yolaka olwesabekayo lukaThixo.”
14 UThixo uthi: “Bonke omakhelwane bami ababi abathumba ilifa engalinika abantu bami bako-Israyeli, ngizabasusa emazweni abo ngisuse lendlu kaJuda phakathi kwabo.
15Kodwa emva kokubasusa kwami, ngizaphinda ngibe lesihawu ngibuyisele omunye lomunye wabo endaweni eyilifa lakhe elizweni lakhe.
16Bangazifunda kuhle izindlela zabantu bami njalo bafunge ngebizo lami besithi, ‘Ngeqiniso elinjengoba uThixo ephila’ lanxa nje bake bafundisa abantu bami ukufunga ngoBhali, bazahlaliswa phakathi kwabantu bami.
17Kodwa nxa isizwe singalaleli, ngizasisusa ngokupheleleyo ngisibhubhise,” kutsho uThixo.
