Sihlabelelo 82
Nkulunkulu wehlulela ngekulunga
Sihlabelelo sa-Asafa.
1Nkulunkulu ukhuluma
emhlanganweni lomkhulu,
wehlulela bonkulunkulu utsi:
2“Kutawuze kube ngunini
nehlulela ngalokungakalungi
nikhetsa tindlubu nishiye tinkhobe? Cabanga.
3“Vikelani emalungelo
alabamphofu netintsandzane,
nimele emalungelo
alabacindzetelwe nalabeswele.
4Bephuleni labamphofu nalabeswele,
nibakhulule esandleni salababi.
5“Abati lutfo, abacondzi lutfo,
badvukuta ebumnyameni;
tonkhe tisekelo temhlaba tiyatanyatanyiswa.
6Ngatsi kini: ‘Nibonkulunkulu nine;
nonkhe ningemadvodzana
aLosetikwako Konkhe.’
7Nome kunjalo,
niyakufa njengebantfu bonkhe,
niphele njengato tonkhe tikhulu.”
8Vuka-ke, Nkulunkulu,
wehlulele umhlaba,
ngobe nguwe umnikati wetive tonkhe.
