1Ngizakuma esilindweni sami
ngime phezu komthangala;
ngizakhangela ukuba ngibone ukuthi uzakuthini kimi,
lokuthi yimpendulo bani engizayitsho ngale insolo.
Impendulo KaThixo2 UThixo waphendula wathi:
“Loba phansi isibonakaliso
usenze sicace ezicecedwini
ukuze isithunywa sigijime laso.
3Ngoba isibonakaliso silindela isikhathi esimisiweyo;
sikhuluma ngesiphetho
njalo kasiyikuba ngamanga.
Lanxa siphuza, silindele;
sizafika impela
njalo kasiyikuphuza.
4Khangela, uyazigqaja;
izifiso zakhe kazilunganga,
kodwa olungileyo uzaphila ngokholo lwakhe.
5Impela iwayini liyamkhohlisa;
uyazikhukhumeza njalo kalakho ukuphumula.
Ngoba uyisihwaba njengengcwaba,
njalo kasuthi njengokufa,
ubuthelela izizwe zonke kuye
athumbe labantu bonke.
6Bonke kabayikumchothoza na bamhleke besithi,
‘Maye kulowo obuthelela impahla zokwebiwa
azinothise ngobugebenga!
Koze kube nini lokhu kusenzakala na?’
7Labo olezikwelede kubo kabayikukujuma na?
Kabayikuvuka bakuthuthumelise na?
Lapho-ke uzakuba yinto yabo yokuhlutshwa.
8Ngoba sewaphanga izizwe ezinengi,
abantu abaseleyo bazakuphanga
ngoba wachitha igazi labantu;
watshabalalisa amazwe lamadolobho labo bonke abakuwo.
9Maye kulowo obumba umbuso ngenzuzo embi
ukuba akhele isidleke sakhe phezulu
ukuba abalekele ukuwelwa yingozi!
10Ucebe ukubhujiswa kwabantu abanengi,
wayangisa indlu yakho, walahlekelwa yikuphila kwakho.
11Amatshe omduli azakhala
imijabo yamapulanka izasabela.
12Maye kulowo owakha idolobho ngokuchitha igazi
akhe umuzi ngobudlwangudlwangu.
13 UThixo uSomandla kakumisanga na
ukuthi umsebenzi uzinkuni zomlilo nje kuphela,
lokuthi izizwe ziqeda amandla azo ngeze?
14Ngoba umhlaba uzagcwala ngolwazi lodumo lukaThixo,
njengamanzi egcwalisa ulwandle.
15Maye kulowo onika omakhelwane bakhe
okunathwayo ekuthulula
esigujini sewayini badakwe,
ukuze akhangele imizimba yabo enqunu.
16Uzakuba lehlazo elikhulu endaweni yodumo.
Khathesi sekulithuba lakho! Natha uchayeke.
Inkezo yesandla sokunene kaThixo iyeza kuwe,
ihlazo lizamboza udumo lwakho.
17Udlakela olwenze eLebhanoni luzakuqeda amandla,
lokubulala kwakho izinyamazana kuzakuthuthumelisa.
Ngoba uchithe igazi labantu;
uchithe amazwe lamadolobho labo bonke abakuwo.
18Silosizo bani isithombe njengoba sibazwe ngumuntu?
Kumbe isifanekiso esifundisa amanga?
Ngoba lowo osenzayo uthemba isidalwa sakhe;
wenza izithombe ezingeke zikhulume.
19Maye kulowo othi esigodweni, ‘Vuka uphile!’
loba athi elitsheni elingaphiliyo, ‘Phaphama!’
Linganika iseluleko na?
Lembeswe ngegolide langesiliva,
akulamphefumulo phakathi kwalo.”
20Kodwa uThixo usethempelini lakhe elingcwele;
umhlaba wonke kawuthule phambi kwakhe.
