Hezekeli 14

¹ Kwasekufika kimi abanye bamalunga akwaIsrayeli, bahlala phambi kwami.

² Izwi likaJehova lafika kimi, lathi:

³ Ndodana yomuntu, la madoda abeke izithombe zawo ezinhliziyweni zawo, abeka phambi kwawo isikhubekiso sobubi bawo; kufanele ngikhulume nabo nhlobo?

⁴ Ngakho khuluma kubo uthi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova; Yilowo nalowo muntu wendlu yakwa-Israyeli ophakamisa izithombe zakhe enhliziyweni yakhe, abeke isikhubekiso sobubi bakhe phambi kobuso bakhe, eze kumprofethi; Mina Jehova ngiyakumphendula ozayo njengobuningi bezithombe zakhe;

⁵ ukuze ngifake indlu ka-Israyeli enhliziyweni yayo, ngokuba bonke behlukanisiwe nami ngezithombe zabo.

⁶ Ngalokho yisho kuyo indlu yakwa-Israyeli, uthi: ‘Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Phendukani, nifulathele izithombe zenu; bususe ubuso bakho kuzo zonke izinengiso zakho.

⁷ Ngoba yilowo lalowo wendlu kaIsrayeli loba owemzini ogogobeleyo koIsrayeli, ozazahlukanisa lami, abeke izithombe zakhe enhliziyweni yakhe, abeke isikhubekiso sobubi bakhe phambi kobuso bakhe, eze kumprofethi ukubuza kuye. Mayelana nami; Mina Jehova ngizamphendula ngokwami;

⁸ Ngiyakubhekisa ubuso bami bumelane nalowo muntu, ngimenze isibonakaliso nesaga, ngimnqume phakathi kwabantu bami; nizokwazi ukuthi nginguJehova.

⁹ Futhi uma umprofethi emkhohlisa lapho ekhuluma okuthile, mina Jehova ngimkhohlisile lowo mprofethi, futhi ngizokwelulela isandla sami kuye ngimqede phakathi kwabantu bami u-Israyeli.

¹⁰ Bayothwala isijeziso sobubi babo; isijeziso somprofethi siyoba njengesijeziso salowo omfunayo;

¹¹ ukuze indlu yakwa-Israyeli ingabe isaduka isuka kimi, ingabe isangcoliswa ngeziphambeko zayo zonke; kodwa ukuze babe ngabantu bami, lami ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo, itsho iNkosi uJehova.

¹² Izwi likaJehova lafika kimi, lathi:

¹³ Ndodana yomuntu, uma izwe lisona kimi ngokweqa nokuphambuka, ngiyakwelula isandla sami phezu kwalo, ngiphule udondolo lwesinkwa salo, ngithumele phezu kwalo indlala, nginqume kulo abantu nezilwane;

¹⁴ Ngisho noma la madoda amathathu, uNowa, uDaniyeli noJobe, ebekhona kulo, ayeyosindisa umphefumulo wawo kuphela ngokulunga kwawo, isho iNkosi uJehova.

¹⁵ Uma ngithuma ukuduma ezweni, balichithe, libe yihlane, kungabikho muntu odabula izilwane;

¹⁶ Noma lawa madoda amathathu ebekhona kulo, kuphila kwami, isho iNkosi uJehova, awayikusindisa amadodana namadodakazi; yibo kuphela abayakusindiswa, kepha izwe liyakuba yihlane.

¹⁷ Noma ngiletha inkemba kulelo zwe ngithi: ‘Inkemba, dabula izwe;’ ukuze ngiqothule kuwo umuntu nesilwane.

¹⁸ Noma ngabe lawa madoda amathathu ebekhona kulo, kuphila kwami, isho iNkosi uJehova, awayikusindisa amadodana noma amadodakazi, kepha wona wodwa ayakusindiswa wona.

¹⁹ Noma ngithuma isifo kulelo zwe, ngithulule ukufutheka kwami phezu kwalo ngegazi, ukuba ngiqede kulo abantu nezilwane;

²⁰ Noma uNowa noDaniyeli noJobe babephakathi kwalo, kuphila kwami, isho iNkosi uJehova, abayikusindisa indodana noma indodakazi; kodwa bazahlenga imiphefumulo yabo ngokulunga kwabo.

²¹ Ngokuba isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Kakhulu kangakanani uma ngithumela phezu kweJerusalema izahlulelo zami ezine ezimbi, inkemba, nendlala, nokuduma, nesifo, ukuqothula kulo abantu nezilwane na?

²² Kodwa bhekani, kuyosala kuyo insali eyozalwa, amadodana namadodakazi; bheka, bayakuphumela kini, nibone indlela yabo nezenzo zabo; niyoduduzwa ngobubi engilwehlisele phezu kweJerusalema, nangakho konke engikwehlisele phezu kwalo.

²³ Futhi bayoniduduza lapho nibona izindlela zabo nezenzo zabo; niyakwazi ukuthi angikwenzanga ngaphandle kwesizathu konke engikwenzile kulo, isho iNkosi uJehova.
