uMika uMika 2 - Contemporary Xhosa Bible 2024

1Yeha ke, abo bacebayo, benza ububi ezililini zabo! xa kunetha imvula, bayayenza loo nto, kuba kusemandleni ezandla zabo.

2Bacebisana ngamasimi, bazithabatha; nezindlu bazifudusa; bacudisa umfo nendlu yakhe, indoda nelifa layo.

3Ngako oko, wathi uYehova, Yabonani, ndicinga ububi ngesi sizukulwana, ongayi kuzisusa iintamo zenu kuso; ningahambi ngokuzidla, ngokuba eli xesha libi.

4Ngelo xesha umntu uya kukhupha umzekeliso ngawo, abhomboloze elila, esithi, Sibhuqiwe ngenene; Usitshintshile isabelo sabantu bam; Uyisuse njani kum! Wayahlulahlula intsimi yethu.

5Ngoko ke akuyi kuba namntu owenza amaqashiso ebandleni likaYehova.

6Bathi, Musani ukuwisa intetho, bewisa intetho;

7Wena kuthiwa uyindlu kaYakobi, uyashukunyiswa na uMoya kaYehova? yinto ayenzayo leyo? Akalungisi na amazwi am kohamba ngobulungisa?

8Ngelo xesha abantu bam baqhubeka bekhula njengeentshaba: Nibahluba ingubo yokwaleka abo badlula ngoxolo njengabantu abaphambukayo emfazweni.

9Abafazi babantu bam bayakugxotha ezindlwini zezihombo zabo; ubuhluthe ubungangamsha babantwana babo ngonaphakade.

10Vuka, uhambe; ngokuba indawo yenu asiyiyo indawo yokuphumla kwenu;

11Ukuba umntu ohamba nomoya, wathetha ubuxoki, wathetha ubuxoki, wathi, Ndiya kuwisa intetho kuni ngewayini nangesiselo esinxilisayo; kwaye uya kuba ngumprofeti wolu hlanga.

12Ndiya kukuhlanganisa okunene, Yakobi, uphela; okunene ndiya kuwabutha amasalela akwaSirayeli; ndiya kubabutha njengempahla emfutshane yaseBhotsera, njengomhlambi ophakathi kwedlelo lawo;

13Unyuke phambi kwabo umbhuqi; batyhoboza, bangena ngesango, baphuma ngalo; yaye ukumkani wabo uya kubakhokela, yaye uYehova uya kubakhokela.
