Amose 9 I-altare lishayiwe

¹ Ngabona iNkosi imi e-altare, yathi: “Shaya umbundu ongaphezulu womnyango, ukuze izinsika zizamazame; uwaqobe wonke ekhanda; futhi ngizobulala abokugcina kubo ngenkemba;

² Noma bemba endaweni yabafileyo, isandla sami siyakubathatha; noma bekhuphukela ezulwini, ngiyakubehlisa khona.

³ Noma becasha esiqongweni seKarmeli, ngiyakubaphenya, ngibasuse; noma becashile ebusweni bami phansi kolwandle, ngiyakuyala inyoka lapho, ibalume.

⁴ Noma beya ekudingisweni phambi kwezitha zabo, ngiyakuyala inkemba kusukela lapho, ibabulale; ngiyakubhekisa amehlo ami kubo kube kubi, kungabi kuhle.

⁵ UJehova Sebawoti nguye othinta izwe, lincibilike, bonke abakhileyo kulo balile; futhi liyakukhuphuka liphelele njengesikhukhula; njalo lizaminzwa njengomfula waseGibhithe.

⁶ Nguye owakha izindlu zakhe ezulwini, wamisa iqembu lakhe emhlabeni; obiza amanzi olwandle, awathululele emhlabeni: nguJehova igama lakhe.

⁷ Aninjengabantwana bamaKushe yini kimi, nina bantwana bakwa-Israyeli? kusho uJehova. Angimkhuphulanga yini u-Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe na? namaFilisti eKafitori, nama-Aramu aseKiri?

⁸ Bheka, amehlo eNkosi uJehova aphezu kombuso owonayo, ngiwuchithe emhlabeni; ngaphandle kokuthi angiyikushaya indlu kaJakobe ngesiqalekiso, usho uJehova.

⁹ Ngokuba bhekani, ngiyaleza, futhi ngiyohlunga indlu ka-Israyeli phakathi kwezizwe zonke, njengokuhlungwa kukakolweni ngesisefo, kepha akuyikuwela nokuncane okusanhlamvu emhlabathini.

¹⁰ Zonke izoni zabantu bami ziyakufa ngenkemba, abathi: ‘Ububi abuyikusehlela, abuyikusehlela.

¹¹ Ngalolo suku ngiyakuvusa itabernakele likaDavide eliwileyo, ngivale imifantu yalo; ngiyakuvusa amanxiwa awo, ngilakhe njengasezinsukwini zasendulo.

¹² Ukuze badle ilifa lensali yakwaEdomi lazo zonke izizwe ezibizwa ngebizo lami,” kutsho uJehova owenza lokhu.

¹³ “Bheka, izinsuku ziyeza,” usho uJehova, “lapho umlimi eyakufica ovunayo nonyathela izithelo zomvini ohlwanyelayo; izintaba ziyoconsa iwayini elimnandi, namagquma onke ayakuncibilika.

¹⁴ Ngiyobuyisela ukuthunjwa kwabantu bami u-Israyeli, futhi bayokwakha imizi ebhuqiwe bahlale kuyo; bayakutshala izivini, baphuze iwayini lazo; bayotshala izivande badle izithelo zazo.

¹⁵ Ngiyakubatshala ezweni labo, bangabe besasishulwa ezweni labo engibanike lona,” usho uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho.
