1 Ndabuya ndawaphakamisa amehlo am, ndakhangela, nanzo iinqwelo zokulwa zine, ziphuma phakathi kweentaba zombini; iintaba ke iziintaba zobhedu.
2 Enqwelweni yokuqala ibingamahashe abomvu; enqwelweni yesibini ibingamahashe amnyama;
3 enqwelweni yesithathu ibingamahashe amhlophe; enqwelweni yesine ibingamahashe aziingwevu ezibomvu.
4 Ndaphendula ndathi kwisithunywa esibe sithetha nam, Ziyintoni na ezi zinto, nkosi yam?
5 Saphendula ke isithunywa, sathi kum, Le yimimoya emine esezulwini, ephuma yakuba ibizimisile ngakwiNkosi yehlabathi lonke.
6 Le inamahashe amnyama iphuma isiya ezweni langasentla; amhlophe aphume elandela wona; aziingwevu ezibomvu aphume esiya ezweni langasezantsi;
7 abomvu aphuma, efuna ukulihambahamba ihlabathi. Sathi, Hambani, nilihambahambe ihlabathi. Alihambahamba ke ihlabathi.
8 Sadanduluka kum, sathetha kum, sathi, Yabona, la aphuma aya ezweni langasentla, awuzolise umoya wam ezweni langasentla.
9 Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi,
10 Thabatha kwabasekuthinjweni, abaze khona bevela eBhabheli, kooHeledayi, nakooTobhiya, nakooYedaya, uye wena ngaloo mini endlwini kaYosiya unyana kaZefaniya;
11 uthabathe isilivere negolide, wenze izithsaba, ubeke entloko kuYoshuwa unyana kaYotsadaki, umbingeleli omkhulu.
12 Uze uthethe kuye uthi, Utsho uYehova wemikhosi ukuthi, Nantso indoda enguHlumelo, igama layo; iya kuhluma endaweni yayo, iyakhe itempile kaYehova.
13 Iya kuyakha ke yona itempile kaYehova, ithweswe uzuko, ihlale ilawule etroneni yayo, ibe ngumbingeleli etroneni yayo, icebo loxolo libe phakathi kwabo bobabini.
14 Izithsaba zoba kooHelem, nakooTobhiya, nakooYedaya, zibe sisikhumbuzo sobubele bonyana kaZefaniya, etempileni kaYehova.
15 Baya kuza abakude bakhe etempileni kaYehova; nazi ukuba uYehova wemikhosi undithumele kuni; kuya kwenzeka ke, ukuba nithe naliphulaphula ngenyameko ilizwi likaYehova uThixo wenu. |
