UMose Ubusisa Abantu Bakwa-Israyeli

1 Nasi isibusiso uMose, umuntu kaNkulunkulu, abusisa ngaso abantu bakwa-Israyeli, engakafi;

2 wathi:

“USimakade weza evela eSinayi,

wabakhanyisela evela eSeyiri,

wakhazimula entabeni iPharanu.

Weza nezigidi zabangcwele;

ebaphathele umthetho ovuthayo

esandleni sakhe sokunene.

3 Yebo, uyazithanda izizwe,

bonke abangcwele bakhe

basesandleni sakho;

baholelwe ngasezinyaweni zakho,

bayakwemukela okwamazwi akho.

4 UMose wasinika umthetho,

waba yifa lenhlangano kaJakobe.

5 USimakade waba yinkosi eJeshuruni,

ngesikhathi izinhloko zabantu ziqoqana ndawonye,

nezizwana zakwa-Israyeli

zabuthanela ndawonye.

6 “Sengathi uRubeni angaphila, angafi;

amadodana akhe ande kakhulu.

7 “Washo lokhu ngoJuda:

‘Yizwa, Simakade,

yizwa izwi likaJuda,

umlethe kwabakubo;

izandla zakho zimlwele,

umsize kwabamelene naye.’

8 “NgoLevi wathi:

‘IThumimi lakho ne-Urimi lakho

makuye kothembekileyo wakho,

owamvivinya eMasa,

owaphikisana naye ngasemanzini eMeribha,’

9 owathi ngoyise nonina:

‘Angibabonanga,’

wangabanaka abafowabo,

akaze abanakekela abantwana bakhe.

Ngokuba baligcina izwi lakho,

basigcina isivumelwano sakho.

10 Bafundisa uJakobe izehlulelo zakho,

no-Israyeli umthetho wakho;

babeka impepho phambi kwamakhala akho,

nomnikelo oshiswa wonke e-althare lakho.

11Busisa, Simakade, amandla akhe,

uyamukele nemisebenzi yezandla zakhe.

Labo abamvukelayo bafihlize izinkalo zabo,

nezalabo abamzondayo,

ukuze bangaphindi bavuke.

12 “NgoBhenjamini wathi:

‘Othandiweyo kaSimakade

uyakuhlala elondwa nguye;

uyamsibekela usuku lonke,

ahlale phakathi kwamahlombe akhe.’

13 “NgoJosefa wathi:

‘Izwe lakhe malibusiswe nguSimakade

ngamagugu asezulwini, ngamazolo,

ngotwa olwenabileyo phansi,

14ngamagugu ezithelo zelanga,

ngamagugu esivuno senyanga,

15ngezinto ezinqabileyo zezintaba zasemandulo,

ngamagugu amagquma angunaphakade,

16 ngamagugu omhlaba nokugcwala kwawo,

nangentando enhle yowabonakala esihlahleni;

isibusiso masehlele ekhanda likaJosefa

nasemqheleni wekhanda

lalowo owehlukaniswa nabafowabo.

17 Izibulo lenkunzi yakhe,

udumo lwakhe,

nezimpondo zenyathi ziyizimpondo zakhe;

ngazo uyakuqhubukusha

izizwe zonke ekugcineni komhlaba;

zinjalo izigidi zakwa-Efrayimi,

zinjalo izinkulungwane zakwaManase.’

18 “NgoZebuloni wathi:

‘Yenama, Zebuloni, ekuphumeni kwakho,

nawe Isakhare, emathendeni akho.

19Bayobizela izizwe entabeni,

lapho bayonikela imihlatshelo yokulunga,

ngokuba bayoncela inala yezilwandle,

nengcebo yesihlabathi efihliweyo.’

20 “NgoGadi wathi:

‘Makabusiswe owandisa uGadi:

uhlezi njengengonyama,

udwengula ingalo nomqhele okhakhayini.

21 Wazikhethela isabelo sekhethelo,

ngokuba sasigodlwe lapho isabelo somehluleli;

wahamba nabaholi babantu,

wafeza ubulungiswa bukaSimakade

nezehlulelo zakhe ngo-Israyeli.’

22 “NgoDani wathi:

‘UDani uyibhongo lengonyama,

elitshakadulayo, liphuma eBhashani.’

23 “NgoNafethali wathi:

‘Nafethali, ugcwele umusa,

ugcwele isibusiso sikaSimakade:

uyakudla intshonalanga neningizimu.’

24 “Ngo-Asheri wathi:

‘Ubusisiwe u-Asheri ngaphezu kwabafowabo,

makafumane umusa kubafowabo,

unyawo lwakhe alucwilise emafutheni.

25 Imigoqo yakho ingeyensimbi nethusi,

njengoba zinjalo izinsuku zakho;

ayoba njalo namandla akho.’

26 “Akekho ofana noNkulunkulu, Jeshuruni,

ogibela amazulu ukuzokusiza,

namafu ngobukhosi bakhe.

27 UNkulunkulu wasemandulo uyisiphephelo

nangaphansi zikhona izingalo ezingunaphakade;

wazixosha izitha phambi kwakho

wathi: ‘Bhubhisa.’

28 U-Israyeli uhleli ngokuvikeleka;

umthombo kaJakobe wehlukene wodwa

ezweni lokusanhlamvu nelewayini;

lapho amazulu akhe econsa amazolo.

29 Ubusisiwe wena Israyeli;

ngubani ofana nawe,

isizwe esisindiswe nguSimakade

oyisihlangu nosizo lwakho,

oyinkemba yakho yokunqoba.

Izitha zakho ziyokhwantshabala,

wena unyathele ezindaweni zazo eziphakemeyo.”
