Amose 5 Isililo ngendlu ka-Israyeli

¹ Zwanini lelilizwi engiliphakamisa phezu kwenu, isililo, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli.

² Iwile intombi yakwa-Israyeli; ngeke lisavuka; washiywa ezweni lakubo; akakho ongamvusa.

³ Ngokuba isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Umuzi owaphuma uyinkulungwane uyakusala uyikhulu, owaphuma unekhulu, uyakusalela indlu ka-Israyeli ishumi.

⁴ Ngokuba usho kanje uJehova kuyo indlu yakwa-Israyeli, uthi: “Ngifuneni, nizakuphila;

⁵ Kepha ningalifuni iBethele, ningangeni eGiligali, ningaweli eBeri Sheba; ngoba iGiligali lizakuya ekuthunjweni, leBhetheli lizabhubha.

⁶ Funani uJehova, niyakuphila; funa avuthe njengomlilo endlini kaJosefa, awuqede, kungabikho owucimayo eBethele.

⁷ Wena ophendula ukwahlulela kube ngumhlonyane, umise ukulunga emhlabeni,

⁸ Mfuneni owenza izinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa ne-Oriyoni, ophendula ithunzi lokufa libe ukusa, afiphaze imini nobusuku, obiza amanzi olwandle, awathululele emhlabeni: nguJehova igama lakhe.

⁹ Abaqinisa abaphangiwe kwabanamandla, abaphangiweyo beze bemelene nenqaba.

¹⁰ Bayamzonda okhuzayo esangweni, bamenyanya okhuluma ukulunga.

¹¹ Kusukela lapho ninyathela ompofu, nithatha isithungu senu, nakhe izindlu zamatshe abaziweyo, kepha aniyikuhlala kuzo; nitshale izivini ezithandekayo, kepha aniyikuphuza iwayini lazo.

¹² Ngokuba ngiyazazi iziphambeko zenu eziningi nezono zenu ezinamandla;

¹³ Ngakho abahlakaniphileyo bayakuthula ngalesi sikhathi; ngoba kuyisikhathi esibi.

¹⁴ Funani okuhle, hhayi okubi, ukuze niphile; kanjalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu Sebawoti, ibe nani, njengalokho nikhulumile.

¹⁵ Zondani okubi, nithande okuhle, nimise ukulunga esangweni; mhlawumbe uJehova uNkulunkulu Sebawoti uyakuba nomusa kuyo insali kaJosefa.

¹⁶ Ngalokho usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu Sebawoti, uJehova, uthi: Kuyakuba khona ukulila ezitaladini zonke; futhi kuyo yonke imigwaqo bayothi: Maye! maye! futhi bayobiza umlimi ukuba alile, nalabo abakwaziyo ukusuka ekulileni baye ekulileni.

¹⁷ Zonke izivini ziyakukhala, ngokuba ngiyakudabula phakathi kwakho,” usho uJehova.

¹⁸ Maye kinina enifisa usuku lukaJehova! kuyini kuwe na? usuku lukaJehova luwubumnyama, alukona ukukhanya.

¹⁹ Njengokungathi umuntu ubalekela ingonyama, ahlangane nebhere; noma engena endlini, wancika isandla sakhe odongeni, walunywa yinyoka.

²⁰ Usuku lukaJehova aluyikuba ngubumnyama, lungabi ngukukhanya na? ngisho emnyama kakhulu futhi akukho ukukhanya kuyo?

²¹ Ngiyayizonda, ngiyayidelela imikhosi yenu, angiyikuhogela imikhosi yenu.

²² Noma ningilethela iminikelo yenu yokushiswa neminikelo yenu eyenziwa ngomlilo, angiyikuthokoza ngayo; futhi angiyikunaka imihlatshelo yezinkomo zenu ezikhuluphele.

²³ Susa kimi umsindo wezingoma zakho; ngoba kangithandi ukuzwa ukuhlabelela kwezingubhu zenu.

²⁴ Kodwa ukwahlulela makugeleze njengamanzi, nokulunga njengomfula omkhulu.

²⁵ Langilethela yini imihlatshelo lezipho enkangala iminyaka engamatshumi amane, lina ndlu kaIsrayeli?

²⁶ Kepha nathwala itabernakele likaMoloki wenu noKiuni, izithombe zenu, inkanyezi kankulunkulu wenu enazenzela yona.

²⁷ Ngalokho ngiyakunithuma ekuthunjweni ngaphesheya kweDamaseku, usho uJehova ogama lakhe linguNkulunkulu Sebawoti.
