UZakhariya 13
Ukuhlanjululwa KweJerusalema
1Ngalolo lusuku kuyakuvulwa umthombo oyakuhlanza izono nokungcola kwendlu kaDavide nabakhileyo eJerusalema.
2USimakade Wamabandla uthi: “Ngalolo lusuku ngiyakushabalalisa amagama ezithombe ezweni, futhi awayukuphinde akhunjulwe; ngiyakususa abaphrofethi nemimoya engcolileyo ezweni. 3Kuyakuthi uma omunye ephrofetha, uyise nonina abamzalayo bathi kuye: ‘Kufanele ufe, ngokuba uqambe amanga egameni likaSimakade,’ uyise nonina bayakumgwaza esaphrofetha.
4“Kuyakuthi ngalolo lusuku kube yilowo nalowo mphrofethi abe namahloni ngombono wakhe. Abayukuyigqoka ingubo enoboya ukuze bakhohlise. 5Uyakuzihlangula athi: ‘Angisiyena umphrofethi, ngingumuntu nje ozilimela umhlabathi, ngokuba ngathengwa ngumuntu othile ngisemncane.’ 6Omunye uyakumbuza athi: ‘Pho lawa manxeba asezandleni zakho ngawani na?’ Uyakuphendula athi: ‘Lawa manxeba ngawokushaywa ngangisendlini yabangani bami.’ ”
Umyalo Wokugwaza UMelusi
7“Vuka nkemba, umelane nomelusi wami,
umelane nomuntu ongumgani wami.
Shaya umelusi, ukuze kuhlakazeke izimvu,
ngiyakuphendulela isandla sami kumawundlu,”
kusho uSimakade Wamabandla.
8USimakade uthi:
“Kuyakuthi ezweni lonke
kunqunywe izingxenye ezimbili,
zishabalale,
kushiywe ingxenye yesithathu kulo.
9Ngiyakufaka ingxenye yesithathu emlilweni,
ngibacwengisise njengokucwengisiswa kwesiliva,
ngibavivinye njengokuvivinywa kwegolide.
Bayakubiza igama lami,
ngiyakubaphendula,
ngithi: ‘Bangabantu bami!’
Bona bayakuthi: ‘USimakade
unguNkulunkulu wami.’ ”
