IsiLilo 4 Kuzokwenzekani kubantu abangamaJuda?

¹ Yeka indlela igolide elibuthuntu ngayo! igolide elicwengekileyo liguqulwa kanjani! amatshe endlu engcwele achithekile eziqongweni zazo zonke izitaladi.

² Amadodana ayigugu aseSiyoni alingana negolide elihle, yeka ukuthi abhekwa njengezitsha zebumba, umsebenzi wezandla zombumbi!

³ Ngisho nezilo zasolwandle zikhipha amabele azo, zincelise amazinyane azo; indodakazi yabantu bami isinonya njengezintshe zasogwadule.

⁴ Ulimi lomunya lunamathela olwangeni lwakhe ngokoma; abantwana abancane bacela isinkwa, futhi akakho osihlephulayo.

⁵ Abadlile kahle bangamaganga ezitaladini;

⁶ Ngokuba isijeziso sobubi bendodakazi yabantu bami sikhulu kunesijeziso sesono saseSodoma elachithwa ngokuphazima kweso, kungasalanga zandla phezu kwalo.

⁷ AmaNaziri alo ayehlanzekile kuneqhwa, ayemhlophe kunobisi, ebomvu ngomzimba kunamarubi, ukucwebeshwa kwawo kwakungokwesafire.

⁸ Ubuso babo bumnyama kunelahle; abaziwa ezitaladini; isikhumba sabo sinamathela emathanjeni abo; yabuna, yaba njengenduku.

⁹ Ababulewe ngenkemba bangcono kunababulawa yindlala, ngokuba laba bayabavula, benqotshiwe ngenxa yokuswela izithelo zensimu.

¹⁰ Izandla zabesifazane abanomusa zaphuzisa abantwana babo; babe ngukudla kwabo ekubhujisweni kwendodakazi yabantu bami.

¹¹ UJehova ulugcwalisile ulaka lwakhe; Wathulula ukufutheka kwakhe, waphemba umlilo eSiyoni, waqeda izisekelo zalo.

¹² Amakhosi omhlaba kanye nabo bonke abakhileyo emhlabeni babengeke bakholwe ukuthi isitha nesitha kufanele bangene emasangweni eJerusalema.

¹³ Ngenxa yezono zabaprofethi balo nobubi babapristi balo abachitha igazi labalungileyo phakathi kwalo;

¹⁴ Bazulazula njengezimpumputhe ezitaladini, bazingcolisa ngegazi, ukuze abantu bangabe besathinta izingubo zabo.

¹⁵ Basebememeza bathi: Hambani! ingcolile; sukani, sukani, ningathinti; lapho bebaleka bezulazula, bathi phakathi kwabezizwe: Kabayikugogobala khona;

¹⁶ Intukuthelo kaJehova yabahlukanisa; akasayikubanaka; babengahloniphi ubuntu babapristi, babengawathandi amadoda amadala.

¹⁷ Kepha thina, amehlo ethu asalokhu ephelile ukubheka usizo lwethu oluyize; ngokuqapha kwethu sibheke isizwe esingeke sisisindise.

¹⁸ Bazingela izinyathelo zethu, ukuze singahambi ezitaladini zethu; ukuphela kwethu kuseduze, izinsuku zethu ziphelele; ngoba ukuphela kwethu sekufikile.

¹⁹ Abasizingelayo banejubane kunezinkozi zezulu; basixosha ezintabeni, basilindela ehlane.

²⁰ Umoya wamakhala ethu, ogcotshiweyo kaJehova, wabanjwa emithonjeni yabo, esasho ngaye ukuthi: ‘Emthunzini wakhe siyakuhlala phakathi kwezizwe.

²¹ Jabula, ujabule, ndodakazi yakwa-Edomi, ohlala ezweni lakithi; nendebe iyakudlula kuwe; uzodakwa futhi ube nqunu.

²² Isijeziso sobubi bakho siphelele, ndodakazi yaseZiyoni! Akasayikukuyisa ekudingisweni; Uyakuhambela ububi bakho, ndodakazi yakwa-Edomi; uzakwambula izono zakho.
