UHezekeli 18

¹Izwi likaJehova lafika kimi, lathi:

²Litshoni ukuthi likhuluma lesi saga ngezwe lakoIsrayeli esithi: Oyise badlile izithelo zomvini ezimunyu, lamazinyo abantwana aba buthuntu?

³Kuphila kwami, usho uJehova, anisayikuba nathuba lokukhuluma lesi saga kwa-Israyeli.

⁴Bhekani, yonke imiphefumulo ingeyami; njengomphefumulo kayise, unjalo umphefumulo wendodana yami; umphefumulo owonayo kumelwe ufe.

⁵Kodwa uba umuntu elungile, esenza ukulunga lokulungileyo,

⁶Akadlanga ezintabeni, akaphakamiselanga amehlo akhe ezithombeni zendlu yakwa-Israyeli, akamngcolisanga umkamakhelwane wakhe, akasondelanga kowesifazane osesikhathini;

⁷futhi engacindezeli muntu, kodwa wabuyisela isibambiso koweletayo, engaphanga muntu ngokuphoqa, wanika olambileyo isinkwa sakhe, wembathisa onqunu ngengubo;

⁸Lowo ongasebenzisanga nzalo, engathathi nzuzo, nobuyisa isandla sakhe ebubini, wenza isahlulelo esiqinisileyo phakathi komuntu nomuntu;

⁹Wahamba ngezimiso zami, wagcina izahlulelo zami ukuba enze ngokwethembeka; ulungile, uyakuphila impela, isho iNkosi uJehova.

¹⁰Uma ezala indodana engumphangi, engumbulali, enze into enjalo kwenye yalezi zinto,

¹¹lalowo ongenzi lezo mfanelo, kodwa wadla ezintabeni, wangcolisa umkamakhelwane wakhe;

¹²Wacindezela ompofu nompofu, ephangiwe ngenkani, akasibuyiselanga isibambiso, waphakamisela amehlo akhe kuzo izithombe, wenza izinengiso,

¹³Wasebenzisa inzuzo, wathatha inzuzo; uzophila ngaleso sikhathi? akayikuphila; zonke lezi zinengiso wazenza; uyakufa nokufa; igazi lakhe liyakuba phezu kwakhe.

¹⁴Bheka-ke, uma izala indodana ebona zonke izono zikayise azenzile, iqaphele, ingenzi okunjalo,

¹⁵ongadli ezintabeni, engaphakamiseli amehlo akhe ezithombeni zendlu kaIsrayeli, ongangcolisanga umkamakhelwane wakhe;

¹⁶futhi ocindezelweyo, ongagodlanga isibambiso, akaphanga ngamandla, kepha wanika olambileyo isinkwa sakhe, wembesa onqunu ngengubo,

¹⁷owabamba isandla sakhe kompofu, owayengamukeli nzuzo nenzuzo, wagcina izimiso zami, wahamba ngezimiso zami; akayikufa ngenxa yobubi bukayise, uyakuphila impela.

¹⁸Uyise-ke, ngokuba wacindezela ngonya, waxhaphaza umfowabo, wenza okubi phakathi kwabantu bakubo, bheka, naye uyakufa ngobubi bakhe.

¹⁹Kodwa nithi: Ngani na? Indodana ayithwali yini ububi bukayise na? Uma umfana enza okulungile nokulungile, agcine zonke izimiso zami, azenze, uyakuphila nokuphila.

²⁰Umphefumulo owonayo kumelwe ufe. Indodana ayiyikuthwala ububi bukayise, noyise akayikuthwala ububi bendodana;

²¹Kepha uma omubi ephenduka ezonweni zakhe zonke azenzileyo, agcine zonke izimiso zami, enze ukulunga nokulunga, uyakuphila impela, akayikufa.

²²Zonke iziphambeko zakhe azenzile aziyikubizwa kuye; ngokulunga kwakhe akwenzileyo uyakuphila.

²³Ngiyathokoza yini ngokufa komubi na? isho iNkosi uJehova, kungesikho ukuthi abuye ezindleleni zakhe, aphile, na?

²⁴Kepha uma olungileyo ephenduka ekulungeni kwakhe, enze ukungalungi, enze izinengiso zonke omubi azenzayo, uyakuphila na? “Konke ukulunga kwakhe akwenzileyo akuyikubizwa;

²⁵Kodwa lina lithi: Indlela yeNkosi kayilingani. Yizwani nina ndlu ka-Israyeli! Indlela yami ayilingani na? izindlela zenu azilingani na?

²⁶Lapho olungileyo ephenduka ekulungeni kwakhe, enze ukungalungi, afe kukho; ngenxa yobubi bakhe abenzileyo, uyakufa.

²⁷Futhi, uma omubi ephenduka ebubini bakhe abenzileyo, enze ukulunga nokulunga, uyakusindisa umphefumulo wakhe.

²⁸Ngenxa yokuthi uyeka futhi efulathela zonke iziphambeko zakhe azenzile, ngokuqinisekile uyophila, ngeke afe.

²⁹Kodwa indlu kaIsrayeli ithi: Indlela yeNkosi ayiqondile. Nina ndlu ka-Israyeli, izindlela zami aziqondile na? izindlela zenu azilingani na?

³⁰Ngakho ngiyakunahlulela nina ndlu ka-Israyeli, kube yilowo nalowo ngokwezindlela zakhe, isho iNkosi uJehova. Phendukani, niphenduke kuzo zonke iziphambeko zenu; ngakho ububi abuyikuba ukuwa kwenu.

³¹Lahlani kini zonke iziphambeko zenu eleqa ngazo; futhi anenze inhliziyo entsha nomoya omusha; ngoba lizafelani lina ndlu kaIsrayeli?

³²Ngokuba angithokozi ngokufa kofayo, isho iNkosi uJehova. Ngakho-ke phenduka uphile.
