UJoweli 3

¹Ngokuba bhekani, ngalezo zinsuku nangaleso sikhathi, lapho ngiyakubuyisa ukuthunjwa kukaJuda neJerusalema,

²Ngiyakubutha zonke izizwe, ngizehlisele esigodini sikaJehoshafati, ngilwe nazo lapho ngenxa yabantu bami nefa lami u-Israyeli, owabahlakazela ezizweni, wahlukanisa izwe lami.

³Benza inkatho phezu kwabantu bami; wanika isifebe indodana, wathengisa ngentombazane ukuze aphuze iwayini.

⁴Yebo, nihlangene ngani nami, Tire, neSidoni, nani nonke zifunda zasePalestina na? uzongibuyisela yini? futhi uma ungiphindisela, ngokushesha futhi ngokushesha ngizokwehlisela impindiselo yakho phezu kwekhanda lakho;

⁵Ngoba nathatha isiliva lami legolide lami, laletha izinto zami eziligugu emathempelini enu.

⁶Abantwana bakwaJuda nabantwana baseJerusalema bathengisa ngani kumaGreki ukuba awasuse kude nemingcele yawo.

⁷Bhekani, ngiyakubavusa endaweni enabathengisa kuyo, ngenze ukuba umvuzo wenu uwe phezu kwamakhanda enu.

⁸Ngiyakuthengisa ngamadodana enu namadodakazi enu esandleni sabantwana bakwaJuda, bona bathengise ngabo kumaSheba, isizwe esikude, ngokuba uJehova ukukhulumile.

⁹Kumemezeleni phakathi kwabezizwe; Lungisani impi, phakamisani amaqhawe, asondele onke amaqhawe; mabakhuphuke.

¹⁰Phosani izinkemba zenu ezinkulu nemikhonto yenu yokuthena imithi; obuthakathaka makathi: Nginamandla.

¹¹Buthanani nize nina zizwe zonke, nibuthane nxazonke; makwehlele khona amaqhawe akho, Jehova.

¹²Izizwe mazivuke, zikhuphukele esigodini sikaJehoshafati, ngokuba ngiyakuhlala khona ukuba ngahlulele zonke izizwe nxazonke.

¹³Hlalani esikeleni, ngokuba isivuno sesivuthiwe; woza, yehla; ngokuba isikhamo sigcwele, amanoni ayachichima; ngoba ububi babo bukhulu.

¹⁴Izixuku, izixuku esigodini sokwahlulela, ngokuba usuku lukaJehova luseduze esigodini sokwahlulela.

¹⁵Ilanga nenyanga kuyoba mnyama, nezinkanyezi ziyosusa ukukhanya kwazo.

¹⁶INkosi izabhonga iseZiyoni, iphakamise ilizwi layo iseJerusalema; kuyakuzamazama izulu nomhlaba, kepha uJehova uyakuba yithemba labantu bakhe nenqaba yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

¹⁷Niyakwazi ukuthi nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu ohlezi eSiyoni, intaba yami engcwele; khona iJerusalema liyakuba ngcwele, abafokazi abasayikulidabula futhi.

¹⁸Kuyakuthi ngalolo suku izintaba ziconse uleme, amagquma agobhoze ubisi, nemifula yakwaJuda igobhoze amanzi, kuphume nomthombo endlini kaJehova, futhi uyonisela isigodi saseSitimi.

¹⁹IGibithe liyakuba yincithakalo, no-Edomi abe yihlane eliyincithakalo, ngenxa yobudlova phezu kwabantwana bakwaJuda, ngokuba bachitha igazi elingenacala ezweni labo.

²⁰Kodwa uJuda uzaphila kuze kube nininini, leJerusalema izizukulwane ngezizukulwane.

²¹Ngokuba ngiyakulihlanza igazi labo engingalihlanzanga, ngokuba uJehova uhlala eSiyoni.
