Bible Reading Plan – Day 177

₁Makhe ndintyiloze ndivum' ingoma,

ingoma ngogxa wam nesidiliya sakhe.

Ugxa wam wayenesidiliya

kwinduli echuma kunene.

₂Wawuphethula umhlaba, wawageqa amatye,

waza watyala idiliya yodidi.

Kwalapho wakha nemboniselo;

ngokunjalo wenza nesixovulelo.

Waza ke wanqumama ekholosile;

suka ke zona iidiliya zavela zingezizo.

₃“Athi ke, nina bemi baseJerusalem,

ngokunjalo nani, bantu bakwaJuda!

Ndiyanibongoza, khanahlule phakathi kwam nesidiliya sam.

₄Ngaba yintoni endingasenzelanga yona?

Yiyiphi enye into engendisenzele yona?

Ngaba uphi undonakele?

Kaloku mna ndithe ndijonge iidiliya,

suka sona savelisa ezingezizo.

₅Phulaphulani ke, mna ndinixelele,

nantsi into endiya kusenza yona:

ndoyisusa loo nto ndisibiyele ngayo,

sitsho sibe sisisulu sokubhuqwa;

ndiya kuzidiliza iindonga ezisibiyeleyo,

imidiliya ibe sisisulu sokunyathelwa.

₆Ndosiyeka nje, side sibe lifusi;

isidiliya singàthenwa, singàhlakulwa,

sikhule utshungu nenkunzane.

Namafu ngokwawo ndowagunyazisa

ukuze angasiphatheli namvula.”

₇Isidiliya *sikaNdikhoyo onamandla onke yindlu kaSirayeli;

ewe, esi sidiliya ngamaJuda, wona angumyezo oligugu lakhe.

Yena walindela okusemthethweni kuwo,

suka wona ee dyubhu ngobutyadidi begazi!

Wayelindele ubulungisa kuwo,

suka yasisijwili sokuzibika!

₈Kunyembelekile ke kuni,

kuba nithatha imizi ninemizi.

Nongeza amasimi, ninawo amasimi,

nifunzel' ukugqiba konke tu,

ibe nini nodwa abemi kweli lizwe.

₉Ndimvile *uNdikhoyo onamandla onke;

ewe, ufunge wathi:

“Ngenene la mapomakazi ezindlu ndowatsho akhal' ibhungane,

neenzwakazi zemizi zoba ngamanxuwa.

₁₀Kwisidiliya esiziindima ezilishumi

kuya kuphuma umphanda wewayini kuphela,

ize yona imbewu ezele ingobozi

ivelise isitya sengqolowa kuphela.”

₁₁Yeha! Kunyembelekile kuni,

nina bavuka ekuseni,

nisukelana notywala kube njeya;

nina bajikeleza kude kube sebusuku,

nide nibe zizinxada-nxada kukunxila!

₁₂Kwezo ziyunguma sisigingci nehapu,

umrhubhe nefluthi, ndawonye notywala;

uNdikhoyo yena animkhathalele,

nemisebenzi ayenzayo aniyihoyanga.

₁₃Ngenxa yokuba bengaqiqi

abantu bam baza kuthinjwa.

Oomaqhuzu babo bofa yindlala,

ngokunjalo nomndilili ufe lunxano.

₁₄Ngoko ke elabafileyo libalambele;

ewe, ingcwaba likhamise ng'aa,

liza kuziqongqoloza izihandiba zaseJerusalem.

Ngokunjalo nezihlwele ziya kutshona kulo,

ingabi yongxolo ke, ibe yingxuba kaxaka!

₁₅Abantu baya kuthotywa bawe bhaxa;

abakhukhumeleyo baya kuhlazeka.

₁₆Kodwa ke uNdikhoyo onamandla onke

uphakanyiswa bubulungisa bakhe;

ewe, yena uThixo onguYedwa

wozicacisa ngobulungisa bakhe.

₁₇Amatakane aya kutya kuloo mabhodlo,

nawebhokhwe atsho afumane idlelo.

₁₈Lusizi lodwa kwabarhuqa ukona ngomnxeba wokuxoka,

abo balandelwa sisono ngathi basirhuqa ngentsontela,

₁₉abo bathi: “UThixo makakhawulezise;

makangxame enze sibone kaloku.

Masifike isicwangciso sikaYedwa kaSirayeli,

ukuze nathi sibe nokusiqonda.”

₂₀Kulusizi kwabathi ububi kokuhle,

nakwabo bathi okuhle bububi;

nditsho abathi ubumnyama kukukhanya,

bajike bathi ukukhanya bubumnyama.

Bona ekrakrayo bathi imnandi,

ukanti emnandi bathi iyakrakra.

₂₁Kunyembelekile kwabo bazicingela ukuba bazizilumko;

nditsho abo bazicingela ukuba bandwebile.

₂₂Yeha ke nina, makroti asetywaleni,

nina bangamachule okuxuba utywala;

₂₃nditsho nina bamkhululayo onetyala,

ngenxa yokuba nifumene isicengo,

nina babugqwethayo ubulungisa komsulwa!

₂₄Ngoko ke niya kufana nomququ,

wona ulencwayo lidangatye;

nani niya kuba njengengca,

yona ishwatyaniswayo ngumlilo.

Niya kusuka nibole iingcambu;

intyatyambo yenu iya kuvuthuluka.

Kaloku niyimangele ingqeqesho kaNdikhoyo onamandla onke,

nalitshica ilizwi likaYedwa kaSirayeli.

₂₅Ewe, uNdikhoyo uyalwa nabantu bakhe;

wosuka abathi mpaka ngesandla sakhe!

Ke zona iintaba zonyikima,

izidumbu zibe yinkunkuma ezitalatweni.

Naxa kunjalo nje usavutha ngumsindo;

ewe, akajiki, uyalekuza.

₂₆UNdikhoyo uza kuxhokonxa isizwe esikude;

uza kuntyontyela esiseziphelweni zehlabathi.

Nâso ke sisiza sigxalathelana!

₂₇Amajoni aso akakhubeki, engadinwa;

wona akozeli, akalali nokulala.

Ezawo iibhanti azikhululeki,

nemitya yeembadada zawo ayiqhawuki.

₂₈Iintolo zawo azibukhali, ziingcangula;

ewe, ziinto ezihlala zityedile.

Iimpuphu zamahashe – nyengane yakwabani!

Ke wona amavili eenqwelo sisitshu.

₂₉Ziinto ezivungama okwengonyama;

ewe, umgqumo wazo ngathi yingonyama entsha.

Zigragrama zilithi xhwii ixhoba lazo,

zilithi xhakamfu kungabikho unokulamla.

₃₀Ngaloo mini ke zibhavumla phezu kwalo,

zitsho ngomgqumo ngathi lulwandle.

Wothi wakukrwaqula ke kulo mhlaba

ufike uyinkxwaleko nembonde-mbonde,

ukukhanya kuginywe bubumnyama bamafu.

“Hay' isidima, ayisosidima, ayisosidima *kuNdikhoyo uSomandla-onke!

Ubungangamsha bakhe bulizalisile ihlabathi jikelele!”

“ ‘Niya kuphulaphula niphulaphule, ningaqondi noko;

niya kujonga nijonge, kodwa ningaboni nto!’

₁₀Iqhube yenjenje:

‘Yenze gqathu-gqathu ingqiqo yaba bantu;

iindlebe zabo uzivale zivingceke tu,

namehlo abo ke uwavale mba,

hleze babone ngamehlo abo,

okanye beve ngeendlebe zabo,

mhlawumbi baqiqe ngeengqondo zabo,

nto leyo ke iya kubenza basuke beze kum banyangeke.’ ”

₁₁Ndibuzile ke mna ndathi:

“Koda kube nini na kunje, Mhlekazi?”

Ke yena undiphendule wenjenje:

“Izixeko zoda zibe ngamabhodlo;

ewe, koda kukhal' ibhungane,

imizi ingahlalwa bani mpela,

nomhlaba ubhuqeke ube yinkangala.

₁₂Ewe, xa bebonke ndiya kubafudusa,

kulo mhlaba kusale kukwanti-zitshile.

₁₃Noba kungakho mngqandanda usalayo,

nawo ngokwawo uya kutshitshiswa kuthi tu!

Kambe ke uya kufana nomterebhinte nom-oki,

mithi leyo ivelisa ihlumelo yakugawulwa.

Kananjalo ke isiphunzi sohlanga siya kuba nalo ihlumelo.”
