Jobho 5:1-27
5 “Ukhona ozakuphendula nawunghonghoyilako na?
Uzokubiza bani kwabacwengileko bona azokusiza?
2 Ukusilingeka kuyasibulala isidlhadlha,Umona uzombulala ongatjhejiko.
3 Ngibone isidlhadlha siphumelela,Kodwana ngokuphazima kwelihlo indawaso izokwehlelwa yihlekelele.
4 Amadodanaso awakaphephi,Ayagandelelwa esangweni ledorobho+ begodu akunamuntu ozawaphephisa.
5 Olambileko udla akuvunileko,Ukukhupha ngitjho nahlangana nameva,Begodu izinto zakhe ziyathathwa.
6 Izinto ezimbi aziveli ethulini,Nomraro awuveli ehlabathini.
7 Njengombana ilangabi litjhinga phezulu,Nomuntu ubelethelwe imiraro.
8 Kodwana mina ngizakubawa kuZimu,Indabami ngizayibikela uZimu,
9 Ngombana wenza izinto ezikulu nezibabazekako,Wenza izinto ezinengi khulu ezikarisako.
10 Wenza bona izulu line ephasini
Begodu uthumela amanzi emasimini.
11 Abathobekileko ubaphakamisela phezulu,Abaphela amandla uyabaphakamisa bekabasindise.
12 Uhlangahlanganisa amahlelo wabahlakaniphileko,Bona imisebenzi yezandla zabo ingaphumeleli.
13 Ubamba abahlakaniphileko ngeenthiyo zabo,+Bona amanwabo angaphumeleli.
14 Baphahlwe bumnyama emini ka-bha!
Bafane nabantu abafuna izinto ebumnyameni.
15 Usindisa abantu kilabo abanamagama ahlabako,*Otlhagileko umsindisa esandleni sonamandla,
16 Bona abangasililitho babe nethemba,Kodwana umlomo wesikhohlakali uzokuvalwa.
17 Qala! Uyathaba umuntu okhalinywa nguZimu;Yeke ungakuphayeli eqadi ukukhalinywa Mninimandla Woke!
18 Ubangela ubuhlungu kodwana abophe inceba;Uyaphula abe alungise ngezandla zakhe.
19 Uzokusindisa eenhlekeleleni ezisithandathu,Ngitjho neyekhomba angeze ikulimaze.
20 Ngesikhathi sendlala uzokusindisa ekufeni,Nangesikhathi sepi uzokusindisa emandleni wesabula.
21 Uzokuvikelwa emlonyeni okhuluma izinto ezihlabako,+Nehlekelele nayifikako angeze uyisabe.
22 Ihlekelele nendlala uzozihleka,Neembandana angeze uzisabe.
23 Amatje wemasimini angeze akulimaze,*Iimbandana zemasimini zizokuba nokuthula nawe.
24 Uzokwazi bona itende lakho livikelekile,Begodu akunalitho ozolifumana lilahlekile nawuhlola amadlelwakho.
25 Uzokuba nabantwana abanengi,Iinzukulwana zakho zizokuba zinengi njengotjani.
26 Uzokuhlongakala usesenamandla,Njengekoroyi nayivunwako ngesikhathi sayo.
27 Qala! Lokhu sikuhlolisisile.
Akhucabange ngakho, nawe uzozibonela ukuthi izintwezi nangambala zinjalo.”
