Isahluko 34

Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi,
2 Nyana womntu, profeta ngabalusi bakwaSirayeli; profeta, uthi kubo, ngabalusi abo, Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Yeha ke abalusi bakwaSirayeli, abaye bezalusa ngokwabo! Abalusi babengafanele ukwalusa umhlambi wabo, yini na?
3 Amanqatha niyawadla, uboya nizambathise ngabo; ezityetyisiweyo izimvu niyazixhela, umhlambi aniwalusi.
4 Ezityhafileyo anizomelezi, ezifayo aniziphilisi, ezaphukileyo anizibophi, eziziintsali anizibuyisi, ezidakileyo anizifuni; nizinyathela ngamandla kalukhuni.
5 Zaba lusali ngokungabi namalusi; zaba kukudla kwamarhamncwa onke asendle, zaba lusali.
6 Umhlambi wam wadungudela ezintabeni zonke, nasezindulini zonke ezinde, waba lusali umhlambi wam ebusweni bonke belizwe. Akubangakho namnye uwukhathalelayo, akwabakho namnye uwufunayo.
7 Ngako oko, balusindini, liveni ilizwi likaYehova, lisithi,
8 Ndihleli nje, itsho iNkosi uYehova, inyaniso, ngenxa enokuba umhlambi wam ulixhoba, umhlambi wam udliwa ngamarhamncwa onke asendle, ngokungabi namalusi; abalusi bam bengawukhathaleli umhlambi wam, abalusi bezalusa ngokwabo, bengawalusi umhlambi wam:
9 ngako oko, balusindini, liveni ilizwi likaYehova, lisithi,
10 Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Yabonani, ndibachasile ibalusi. Ndiya kuwubiza umhlambi wam ezandleni zabo, ndibanqumamise ekwaluseni umhlambi wam, bangabi sazalusa ngokwabo abalusi; ndiwuhlangule umhlambi wam emlonyeni wabo, ungabi saba kukudla kubo.
11 Ngokuba itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Yabonani, mna ngokwam ndiya kuwukhathalela umhlambi wam, ndiwuvelele.
12 Njengoko umalusi awuvelelayo umhlambi wakhe, ngemini yokubakho kwakhe phakathi komhlambi wakhe othiwe saa qhu, ndiya kwenjenjalo ukuwuvelela umhlambi wam; ndiwuhlangule ezindaweni zonke, owaba lusali kuzo ngemini enamafu, enamafu amnyama.
13 Ndiya kuwukhupha ezizweni, ndiwubuthe emazweni, ndiwuse emhlabeni wawo, ndiwalusele ezintabeni zakwaSirayeli, ezihlanjeni nasezindaweni zonke ezimiweyo zelizwe.
14 Ndiya kuwalusela ebutyanini obulungileyo, libe sezintabeni ezinde zakwaSirayeli idlelo lawo; edlelweni elilungileyo, uya kubutha khona, udle utyani obutyebileyo ezintabeni zakwaSirayeli.
15 Mna ndiya kuwalusa umhlambi wam, ndiwenze ubuthe mna; itsho iNkosi uYehova.
16 Ezilahlekileyo ndiya kuzifuna, ndibuyise eziziintsali, ndibophe ezaphukileyo, ndizomeleze ezifayo; ke ezityebileyo ndozitshabalalisa, nezomeleleyo ndizaluse ngokusesikweni.
17 Nina ke, mhlambi wam, itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Yabonani, ndiya kugweba phakathi kweegusha neegusha, naphakathi kweenkunzi zeegusha neenkunzi zeebhokhwe.
18 Yinto encinane na kuni, ukuthi nibudle utyani obulungileyo, nize okuseleyo kotyani nikunyhashe ngamanqina enu? nisele amanzi angcwengekileyo, niwagxobhe aseleyo ngamanqina enu?
19 Umhlambi wam udla obunyhashiweyo ngamanquna enu; usela agxojiweyo ngamanqina enu.
20 Ngako oko itsho iNkosi uYehova kuzo ukuthi, Yabonani, mna ndiya kugweba phakathi kweegusha ezityebileyo neegusha ezinqinileyo.
21 Ngenxa enokuba nityhala ngehleza nangegxalaba, nizihlabe ngeempondo zenu ezityhafileyo zonke, nide nizenze zibe lusali, zigqibe ilizwe:
22 ndowusindisa umhlambi wam, ungabi saba lixhoba, ndigwebe phakathi kweegusha neegusha.
23 Ndomisa phezu kwawo umalusi abe mnye, awaluse, umkhonzi wam uDavide; yena uya kuwalusa, abe ngumalusi wawo yena;
24 mna Yehova ndibe nguThixo wawo, umkhonzi wam uDavide abe sisikhulu phakathi kwawo; mna Yehova ndithethile.
25 Ndiya kuwenzela umnqophiso woxolo, ndiwaphelise amarhamncwa amabi elizweni, uhlale entlango ukholosile, ulale emahlathini.
26 Ndowenza wona, kwaneendawo ezingeenxa zonke endulini yam, ube yintsikelelo; ndihlise imvula ngexesha elililo; iya kuba yimvula yentsikelelo.
27 Umthi wasendle wonika isiqhamo sawo, ilizwe linike indyebo yalo, banqabe emhlabeni wabo; bazi ukuba ndinguYehova, ekuzaphuleni kwam izikeyi zedyokhwe, ndibahlangule esandleni sabo babebakhonzisa.
28 Abayi kuba saba lixhoba leentlanga, angabadli amarhamncwa elizwe; bahlale bekholosile, kungabikho ubothusayo.
29 Ndobavelisela isityalo sokuba ludumo, bangabi sasuswa yindlala ezweni, bangabi sathwala hlazo leentlanga.
30 Baya kwazi ukuba mna Yehova Thixo wabo ndinabo, bangabantu bam bona, indlu kaSirayeli; itsho iNkosi uYehova.
31 Nina ke ningumhlambi wam, umhlambi wedlelo lam; nisisintu, ndinguThixo wenu; itsho iNkosi uYehova.
