Umthandazo woKumkani
EkaSolomon.
Umthandazo ocela kuBawo wethu ngonyana wokumkani, olinganisa ulawulo ngento enye: okwenzeka kwabaxhwalekileyo. Wanga angamtyumza umcinezeli, ahlangule osweleyo ongenamncedi, aze alibale igazi labo njengelixabisekileyo—aze ehle njengemvula phezu kwengca esikiweyo.
72 1Mnike ukumkani ukwahlulela kwakho okusesikweni, Bawo, nobulungisa bakho kunyana wokumkani. 2Makabagwebe abantu bakho ngobulungisa, nabaxhwalekileyo bakho ngokusesikweni. 3Iintaba mazizise uxolo ebantwini, neenduli zizise ubulungisa. 4Makabakhusele abaxhwalekileyo babantu, abasindise abantwana bamahlwempu, aze amtyumze umcinezeli. 5Mabakoyike abantu lo gama lisekho ilanga nenyanga isahleli, kuzo zonke izizukulwana. 6Makehle njengemvula phezu kwengca esikiweyo, njengezihlambi ezinkcenkceshela umhlaba. 7Ngemihla yakhe mabachume abalungileyo, lwande uxolo, ide inyanga ingabikho. 8Makalawule ethabathela elwandle esa kolunye ulwandle, athabathele emLanjeni ese eziphelweni zomhlaba. a a v8 “UmLambo” nguyufrati, umlambo omkhulu owawungumda osempumalanga welizwe lesithembiso lakwaSirayeli. 9Abemi basentlango mabaqubude phambi kwakhe, zize iintshaba zakhe zikhothe uthuli. 10Ookumkani baseTarshishe nabasezinxwemeni mabahlawule irhafu; ookumkani baseShebha naseSebha mabazise izipho. 11Bonke ookumkani mabawe phantsi phambi kwakhe, zonke iintlanga zimkhonze. 12Kuba uyalihlangula ihlwempu elikhalayo, noxhwalekileyo ongenamncedi. 13Unosizi kwabuthathaka namahlwempu, aze asindise ubomi bamahlwempu. 14Kwingcinezelo nakubundlobongela ubukhulula ubomi babo, negazi labo lixabisekile kuye. 15Mahle aphile ixesha elide; malinikwe kuye igolide laseShebha! Abantu mabamthandazele ngamaxesha onke, bamsikelele imini yonke. 16Mayibe yinkitha inkozo ezweni; mayidlambalaze ezincotsheni zeentaba; isiqhamo sayo sibe njengeLebhanon, yaye abantu mabatyatyambe bephuma ezixekweni njengengca yasendle. b b v16 “NjengeLebhanon” kukhumbuza amahlathi aphakamileyo adumileyo nemveliso etyebileyo yaseLebhanon — umfanekiso wobuninzi obumangalisayo. 17Igama lakhe malihlale ngonaphakade, udumo lwakhe luqhubeke lo gama lisekho ilanga. Zonke izizwe mazisikelelwe ngaye; zonke iintlanga mazithi usikelelekile. 18Makabongwe uBawo wakwaSirayeli, yena yedwa owenza imisebenzi emangalisayo. 19Malibongwe igama lakhe elizukileyo ngonaphakade; umhlaba wonke mawuzaliswe luzuko lwakhe! Amen, Amen.
