¹ Izwi likaJehova lafika kimi, lathi:

² Ndodana yomuntu, iJerusalema malazi izinengiso zalo,

³ uthi: Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova kulo iJerusalema; Ukuzalwa kwakho nozalo lwakho kuvela ezweni laseKhanani; uyihlo wayengumAmori, unyoko engumHeti.

⁴ Ngokuqondene nokuzalwa kwakho, ngosuku owazalwa ngalo, inkaba yakho ayizange inqunywe, futhi awugezwanga ngamanzi ukuba wondle; ubungenawo nhlobo usawoti futhi ungabandakanyeki nhlobo.

⁵ Alikho iso elikuyekile ukwenza noma iyiphi yalezi zinto kuwe ukuba libe nesihe kuwe; kodwa waphonswa ngaphandle endle, ngenxa yokunengeka kobuntu bakho, ngosuku owazalwa ngalo.

⁶ Lapho ngidlula kuwe, ngakubona ungcolile ngegazi lakho, ngathi kuwe usegazini lakho: Phila! yebo, ngathi kuwe usegazini lakho: Phila!

⁷ Ngakwenza wande njengembewu yasendle, wanda, wakhula, wafika emihlobeni emihle kakhulu;

⁸ Lapho ngidlula kuwe, ngakubona, bheka, isikhathi sakho kwakuyisikhathi sothando; ngendlala ingubo yami phezu kwakho, ngembesa ubunqunu bakho; yebo, ngafunga kuwe, ngenza isivumelwano nawe, isho iNkosi uJehova, waba ngowami.

⁹ Ngakugeza ngamanzi; yebo, ngigezisile igazi lakho kuwe, ngakugcoba ngamafutha.

¹⁰ Ngakugqokisa izinto ezilukiweyo, ngakugqokisa izicathulo zezikhumba zamatahasi, ngakubhincisa ilineni elicolekileyo, ngakumboza ngosilika.

¹¹ Ngakuhlobisa ngezivunulo, ngakufaka amasongo ezandleni neketanga entanyeni yakho.

¹² Ngafaka itshe ebunzini lakho namacici ezindlebeni zakho nomqhele omuhle ekhanda lakho.

¹³ Wawuhlotshiswe ngegolide nangesiliva; izingubo zakho zazingezelineni elicolekileyo, nosilika, nezelukiweyo; wadla impuphu ecolekileyo nezinyosi namafutha, wawumuhle kakhulu, waphumelela embusweni.

¹⁴ Udumo lwakho lwaphumela ezizweni ngenxa yobuhle bakho, ngokuba bapheleliswa ngobuhle bami engabubeka phezu kwakho, isho iNkosi uJehova.

¹⁵ Kodwa wethemba ebuhleni bakho, wafeba ngenxa yebizo lakho, wathululela ubufebe bakho phezu kwabo bonke abadlulayo; bekungeyakhe.

¹⁶ Wathatha ezinye zezingubo zakho, wahlobisa izindawo zakho eziphakemeyo ngemibala eminingi, wafeba kuzo; izinto ezinjalo aziyikufika, futhi aziyikuba njalo.

¹⁷ Wathatha nezinto zakho ezinhle egolideni lami nasesilivani lami engakunika lona, wazenzela izithombe zabantu, wafeba nazo.

¹⁸ Wathatha izingubo zakho ezilukiweyo, wazimboza; wabeka amafutha ami nempepho yami phambi kwazo.

¹⁹ Ukudla kwami engakunika khona, impuphu ecolekileyo, namafutha, nezinyosi, engakondla ngakho, wakunika khona, kube yiphunga elimnandi; kwaba njalo, isho iNkosi uJehova.

²⁰ Futhi wathatha amadodana akho namadodakazi akho owangizalela wona, wawanikela ukuba adliwe. Kuyinto encane yini ubufebe bakho,

²¹ Ukuthi ubulele abantwana bami, wabanikela ukuba badabule bona ngokwabo emlilweni?

²² Kuzo zonke izinengiso zakho nobufebe bakho awukhumbulanga izinsuku zobusha bakho, lapho wawunqunu, uyinyumba, ungcoliswe ngegazi lakho.

²³ Futhi lokhu kwenzeka ngemva kwabo bonke ububi bakho, maye, maye kini, isho iNkosi uJehova!

²⁴ ukuthi wazakhela indawo enhle kakhulu, wazenzela indawo ephakemeyo ezitaladini zonke.

²⁵ Wakha indawo ephakemeyo kuzo zonke izinhloko zemigwaqo, wenza ubuhle bakho baba yisinengiso, wavulela bonke abadlulayo izinyawo zakho, wandisa ubufebe bakho.

²⁶ Wafeba nabaseGibithe, abakhelwane bakho, abakhulu ngenyama; ngandisa ubufebe bakho ukuze ungicunule.

²⁷ Bheka, yingakho ngelulela isandla sami phezu kwakho, nganciphisa ukudla okudlayo, ngakunikela entandweni yabakuzondayo, amadodakazi amaFilisti anamahloni ngendlela yakho eyihlazo.

²⁸ Wafeba nama-Asiriya, ngokuba ungasuthi; yebo, wafeba nabo, nokho awuneliswanga.

²⁹ Futhi wandisa ubufebe bakho ezweni laseKhanani kuze kube seKaledi; nokho anigculisekanga ngakho.

³⁰ Yeka ukuthi inhliziyo yakho ibuthakathaka kangakanani, isho iNkosi uJehova, ngokuba wenza zonke lezi zinto, umsebenzi wesifebe esibusayo;

³¹ Ngokwakha udumo lwakho emakhanda azo zonke izindlela, wenze ukuphakama kwakho kuzo zonke izitaladi; futhi awuzange ube njengesifebe ngokudelela inkokhelo;

³² Kodwa njengowesifazana ophingayo, othatha izihambi esikhundleni sendoda yakhe!

³³ Zonke izifebe zinika izipho, kodwa wena upha zonke izithandwa zakho izipho zakho, uziqatshe, ukuze zize kuwe zivela nhlangothi zonke ngenxa yobufebe bakho.

³⁴ Futhi okuphambene nalokho kukini kwabanye besifazane ebufebeni benu, kuyilapho kungekho muntu onilandela ukuze aphinge;

³⁵ Ngakho, sifebe, yizwa izwi likaJehova.

³⁶ Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Ngenxa yokuthi ukungcola kwakho kuthululiwe, nobunqunu bakho sembulwe ngokuphinga kwakho nezithandwa zakho nangabo bonke onkulunkulu abangcolileyo bezinengiso zakho nangegazi labantwana bakho obanike lona;

³⁷ Ngakho-ke bheka, ngiyakubutha zonke izithandwa zakho, owajabula ngazo, nabo bonke owabathanda, kanye nabo bonke obazondayo; Futhi ngiyobabutha nxazonke kuwe futhi ngembule ubunqunu bakho kubo, ukuze babone lonke ihlazo lakho.

³⁸ Ngiyakunahlulela njengabesifazane abachitha umshado nabachitha igazi; ngiyakuninika igazi lokufutheka nokushisekela.

³⁹ Futhi ngiyokunikela esandleni sabo, futhi bayodiliza indawo yakho eyisiduli, badilize izindawo zakho eziphakemeyo; futhi bayokuhlubula izingubo zakho bakuthathele amagugu akho amahle bakushiye unqunu futhi obala.

⁴⁰ Futhi bayokuphakamisela isixuku futhi bakukhande ngamatshe futhi bakugwaze ngezinkemba zabo.

⁴¹ Bayoshisa izindlu zakho ngomlilo, bakwenzele izijeziso phambi kwamehlo abesifazane abaningi; futhi ngiyokwenza ukuba uyeke ubufebe, futhi ungase ungabe usanikeza inkokhelo.

⁴² Khona ngizakwehlisela ulaka lwami kuwe, lokutshiseka kwami kusuke kuwe, ngithule ngingabe ngisathukuthela.

⁴³ Ngokuba awukhumbulanga izinsuku zobusha bakho, kepha wangikhathaza kukho konke lokho; bheka, ngiyakubeka indlela yakho phezu kwekhanda lakho, isho iNkosi uJehova; futhi akumelwe wenze lesi senzo esiyihlazo ngaphezu kwazo zonke izinengiso zakho.

⁴⁴ Bheka, bonke abasebenzisa izaga mabasebenzise lesi saga ngawe, bathi: ‘Njengonina, injalo indodakazi yakhe.

⁴⁵ Wena uyindodakazi kanyoko, ozonda umyeni wakhe nabantwana bakhe; wena ungudade wabodadewenu ababezonda abayeni babo nabantwana babo; unyoko wayengumHeti, uyihlo engumAmori.

⁴⁶ Udadewenu omkhulu uyiSamariya namadodakazi alo ahlala ngakwesobunxele sakho; udadewenu omncane ohlala ngakwesokunene sakho yiSodoma namadodakazi ayo.

⁴⁷ Kodwa awuhambanga ngezindlela zabo, awenzanga njengezinengiso zabo, kepha kwaba sengathi kuyinto encane kakhulu, wonakala kunabo ezindleleni zakho zonke.

⁴⁸ Kuphila kwami, isho iNkosi uJehova, iSodoma udadewenu akenzanga, lona namadodakazi alo, njengalokho wenzile, wena namadodakazi akho.

⁴⁹ Bheka, lobu yibubi bukadadewenu iSodoma;

⁵⁰ Futhi babezidla futhi benza izinengiso phambi kwami; ngakho ngazisusa ngokubona kwami.

⁵¹ NeSamariya alenzanga ingxenye yezono zakho; kepha wena wandisa izinengiso zakho kunabo, walungisisa odadewenu kuzo zonke izinengiso zakho ozenzileyo.

⁵² Nawe owahlulela odadewenu, thwala ihlazo lakho ngezono zakho ozenze okubi kakhulu kunabo; bahle kunawe; osisi.

⁵³ Lapho ngibuyisa ukuthunjwa kwabo, ukuthunjwa kweSodoma lamadodakazi ayo, lokuthunjwa kweSamariya lamadodakazi ayo, ngizabuyisela ukuthunjwa kwabathunjwa bakho phakathi kwabo.

⁵⁴ Ukuze uthwale ihlazo lakho, ube lenhloni kukho konke okwenzileyo, ngoba uyinduduzo kibo.

⁵⁵ Lapho odadewenu, iSodoma namadodakazi alo, sebebuyela ezweni lakubo lakuqala, neSamariya namadodakazi alo ebuyela ezweni lakubo lakuqala, wena namadodakazi akho niyobuyela ezweni lakini.

⁵⁶ Ngokuba iSodoma udadewenu ayiphathwanga emlonyeni wakho ngosuku lokuzidla kwakho,

⁵⁷ Bungakabonakali ububi bakho, njengasesikhathini sokuhlanjalazwa kwakho amadodakazi ase-Aramu nabo bonke abayihaqayo, amadodakazi amaFilisti, ayekudelela nxazonke.

⁵⁸ Uthwale ihlazo lakho nezinengiso zakho,” usho uJehova.

⁵⁹ Ngokuba isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Ngiyakwenza kuwe njengalokho okwenzileyo, odelele isifungo ngokwephula isivumelwano.

⁶⁰ Kepha mina ngiyakukhumbula isivumelwano sami nawe ezinsukwini zobusha bakho, ngikumisele isivumelwano esiphakade.

⁶¹ Khona-ke uyozikhumbula izindlela zakho futhi ube namahloni, uma wamukela odadewenu, abadala bakho nabancane bakho; ngizakunika bona babe ngamadodakazi, kodwa kungeyisikho ngesivumelwano sakho.

⁶² Ngizamisa isivumelwano sami lani; nizokwazi ukuthi nginguJehova.

⁶³ Ukuze ucabange, ume unamahloni, ungabe usavula umlomo wakho ngenxa yehlazo lakho, uma ngibuyisana nawe ngakho konke okwenzileyo, isho iNkosi uJehova.
