Yoo! Itheni na iNkosi yam ukuyisibekela kangaka ngomsindo wayo intombi enguZiyon? Isikhuphile ezulwini, yasikhahlela ehlabathini, isihombo sikaSirayeli, Ayasikhumbula isihlalo seenyawo zayo ngemini yomsindo wayo.
2 INkosi yam iwaginyile, ayawaconga, onke amakriwa akwaYakobi; Izigungxule ngokuphuphuma komsindo wayo iinqaba ezinkulu zentombi enguYuda; Yazizisa emhlabeni; Ibungcolisile ubukumkani nabathetheli babo.
3 Izixakazile ngokuvutha komsindo wayo zonke iimpondo zikaSirayeli; Isibuyise umva isandla sayo sokunene ebusweni botshaba; Yatshisa kwaYakobi njengomlilo olenyayo, odlayo ngeenxa zonke.
4 Isityedile isaphetha sayo njengotshaba; imise isandla sayo sokunene, saxelisa esombandezeli, Yazibulala zonke izinto ezinqwenelekayo emehlweni; Ententeni yentombi enguZiyon, ibuphalazile ubushushu bayo njengomlilo.
5 INkosi yam isuke yaba njengotshaba; imginyile uSirayeli, Iziginyile zonke iingxande zayo ezinde, izonakalisile iinqaba zayo ezinkulu; Yandisa entombini enguYuda uncwino nokukhala.
6 Iyichithile indawo yayo ebiyiweyo njengomyezo; Iyitshabalalisile indawo yayo yentlangano; UYehova wenze walityalwa eZiyon umthendeleko nesabatha; Wabagiba ekubhavumeni komsindo wakhe ukumkani nombingeleli.
7 INkosi yam isihlambele isibingelelo sayo, ithe nethe kuyo ingcwele yayo, Izivingcelele esandleni sotshaba iindonga zeengxande zayo ezinde; Baxokozela endlwini kaYehova njengemini yomthendeleko.
8 UYehova ucinge ukonakalisa udonga lwentombi enguZiyon; Wolule ulutya lokulinganisela, akasibuyisa isandla sakhe ekuginyeni; Wenza ungqameko lomsele lwaba nesijwili, kwanodonga; zithokombisile kunye ezo zinto.
9 Amasango ayo atshonile emhlabeni; uyitshabalalisile, uyaphule imivalo yayo; Ukumkani wayo nabathetheli bayo basezintlangeni, akukho myalelo; Abaprofeti bayo abafumani mbono kuYehova.
10 Ahleli emhlabeni ethe cwaka amadoda amakhulu entombi enguZiyon; Azigalele ngomhlaba entloko, abhinqe ezirhwexayo; Uzithobele emhlabeni iintloko zawo umthinjana waseYerusalem.
11 Amehlo am aphela ziinyembezi, ziyabila izibilini zam, Isibindi sam siphalalele emhlabeni, ngenxa yokwaphuka kwentombi yabantu bakowethu, Ngokutyhafa kwabantwana, nabasemabeleni, ezitratweni zomzi.
12 Bamana ukuthi koonina, Iphi na ingqolowa newayini? Ekutyhafeni kwabo njengabangxwelerhiweyo ezitratweni zomzi, Ekuziphalazeni kwemiphefumlo yabo esifubeni sonina.
13 Ndikungqinele, ngantoni na? Ndikufanekise nantoni na, ntombi yaseYerusalem? Ndikulinganise nantoni na, ukuze ndikuthuthuzele, ntombindini iyintombi, inguZiyon? Ngokuba kukhulu ngangolwandle ukwaphuka kwakho; ngubani na onokukuphilisa?
14 Abaprofeti bakho bakubonele imibono yento engento nejavujavu; Ababutyhila ubugwenxa bakho, ukuba kubuyiswe ukuthinjwa kwakho; Bakubonele imibono ezizihlabo ezingezizo, nezokugxothwa.
15 Babetha izandla ngawe bonke abadlula ngendlela; Benza umsondlo, bahlunguzele iintloko ngentombi enguYerusalem, besithi, Ngulo mzi na, lo kuthiwa kuphela kwenzwakazi, yimihlali yehlabathi lonke?
16 Zonke iintshaba zakho zikwakhamisela umlomo; Zenza umsondlo, zitshixizela amazinyo; zithi, Siyiginyile; Inene, yiyo le imini ebe siyithembile; siyifumene, siyibonile.
17 Ukwenzile uYehova abekunkqangiyele; Ulizalisile ilizwi lakhe, abeliwisele umthetho kususela kwiimini zamandulo; Ugungxule, akaconga; Wenze lwakuvuyelela utshaba lwakho, Uphakamise uphondo lwababandezeli bakho.
18 Intliziyo yabo ikhala eNkosini yam; Ludonga lwentombi enguZiyon, mazihle iinyembezi njengomlambo imini nobusuku; Musa ukuyeka, malungaphezi ukhozo lweliso lakho.
19 Vuka, uhlahlambe ebusuku, ekuqalekeni kwemilindo; Yiphalaze njengamanzi intliziyo yakho ebusweni beNkosi; Ziphakamisele kuyo izandla zakho, ngenxa yomphefumlo wabantwana bakho, Abatyhafileyo kukulamba ekujikeni kwezitrato zonke.
20 Bona, Yehova, ukhangele, ngubani na lo wenjenje ukumphatha kakubi? Abafazi bangadla isiqhamo somzimba wabo na? Badle abantwana ababathantamisayo na? Angabulawelwa engcweleni yeNkosi na umbingeleli nomprofeti?
21 Balele emhlabeni phandle oyinkwenkwe noyindoda enkulu; Umthinjana wam namadodana am awile likrele; Ubulele ngemini yomsindo wakho, usikile, akwaconga.
22 Ukumemile ngokwemini yomthendeleko ukunxunguphala kwam ngeenxa zonke, Akwabakho usindayo, usalayo, ngemini yomsindo kaYehova. Endibathantamisileyo ndabakhulisa, utshaba lwam lubagqibele.
