UAmos
Isahluko 4
Liveni eli lizwi, nina zimazi zaseBhashan, zisezintabeni zakwaSamari, zizicudisayo izisweli, ziwavikivayo amahlwempu, zithi ezinkosini zazo, Zisani sisele.
2 INkosi uYehova ifunge ubungcwele bayo, yathi, Yabonani, nizelwa yimihla eniya kuqweqwediswa ngamagwegwe, nabokugqibela kuni ngamaqerhu okubambisa iintlanzi.
3 Niya kuphuma ngamathuba okuqhekezwa kodonga, elowo aphume ngelilunge naye, niye kuphoswa eHarmon; utsho uYehova.
4 Yiyani eBheteli nikreqe; yiyani eGiligali, nandise ukukreqa; nizise imibingelelo yenu imiso ngemiso, nezishumi zenu kanye ngemihla emithathu;
5 niqhumisele umbingelelo wemibulelo ngento enegwele, nimemeze imibingelelo yokuqhutywa yintliziyo; memezani, kuba nithanda njalo, nyana bakaSirayeli; itsho iNkosi uYehova.
6 Kananjalo mna ndininike ubumsulwa bamazinyo emizini yenu yonke, nokusweleka kwesonka ezindaweni zenu zonke; anibuyanga nize kum noko; utsho uYehova.
7 Kananjalo mna ndayithintela imvula kuni, zisentathu iinyanga zokuba kuvunwe; ndayinisa komnye umzi, andayinisa komnye; esinye isahlulo somhlaba sanelwa yimvula, esinye isahlulo esinganelwanga satsha;
8 imizi emibini, emithathu, ibhadulele kumzi omnye, ukuze isele amanzi ingakholwa; anabuya nize kum noko; utsho uYehova.
9 Ndanibetha ngembabala nangexoshomba; imiyezo yenu nezidiliya zenu, nemikhiwane yenu, neminquma yenu emininzi, yadliwa yinkumbi enqunquthayo; anabuya nize kum noko utsho uYehova.
10 Ndathumela phakathi kwenu indyikitya yokufa, ngokuya kwaseYiputa, ndawabulala ngekrele amadodana enu, kwanamahashe enu angamaxhoba, ndanyusa ukunuka kweminquba yenu, kweza ezimpumlweni zenu; anabuya nize kum noko; utsho uYehova.
11 Ndibabhukuqile abanye benu, njengoko wabhukuqa ngako uThixo iSodom neGomora, naba njengesikhuni esinyothulwe emlilweni; anabuya nize kum noko; utsho uYehova.
12 Ngako oko ndiya kwenjenje kuwe, Sirayeli; ngokokuba ndiya kwenjenje ke kuwe, zilungiselele ukuhlangabeza uThixo wakho, Sirayeli.
13 Ngokuba, yabona, uloyila iintaba, ulodala umoya, uloxelela umntu into okuyiyo ukuthelekelela kwakhe, ulowenza mnyama isifingo, ulonyathela phezu kwemimango yehlabathi: nguYehova uThixo wemikhosi, igama lakhe.
