Siphrofetho lesimelene nelive lakaMowabi (1-47)
48 Naku Jehova wemabutfo longuNkulunkulu wema-Israyeli lakushoko ngelive lakaMowabi:+
“Maye ngeNebo+ ngobe seyibhujisiwe!
IKhiriyathayimu+ ihlazekile futsi yancotjwa.
Indzawo yekukhosela levikelekile* ihlazekile futsi yabhidlitwa.+
2 Live lakaMowabi alisadvunyiswa.
EHeshboni+ titsa tilakhele licebo lekulibhubhisa, tatsi:
‘Wotani, asilibhubhiseni lonkhe lelive.’
Nawe Madmeni, bindza,Ngobe inkemba iyakulandzela.
3 Kuvakala umsindvo wekukhala eHoronayimu,+Ngobe lelidolobha litawubhujiswa futsi lidzilike lonkhe.
4 Live lakaMowabi selibhujisiwe.
Nebantfwana labancane bayakhala.
5 Bantfu bayakhala njengobe bakhuphukela eLuhithi.
Nabehla basuka eHoronayimu kuvakala bantfu bakhala ngenca yalenhlekelele.+
6 Balekani niphephise kuphila kwenu!
Banini njengesihlahla semjunipha ehlane.
7 Njengobe netsembele etentweni tenu nasebunjingeni benu,Nani-ke nitawuncotjwa.
Nankulunkulu wenu Khemoshi+ utawutfunjwaKanye nebaphristi bakhe netindvuna takhe.
8 Sitsa lesibhubhisako sitawahlasela onkhe emadolobha,Futsi kute ngisho nalinye lelitawusindza.+
Sihosha* sitawushabalala,Nendzawo lebekile* itawucotfulwa, njengobe nje Jehova ashito.
9 Bekelani sive sakaMowabi luphawu lolukhomba indlela,Ngobe bantfu bakhona batawubaleka nasekubhujiswa lelive,Emadolobha akhona atawuba yintfo leyetfusako,Futsi kute lotawuhlala kuwo.+
10 Ucalekisiwe loyo longawenti ngenhlitiyo yonkhe umsebenti waJehova!
Ucalekisiwe umuntfu longabulali ngenkemba yakhe!
11 Bantfu bakaMowabi bebasolo bangahlushwa ngulutfo kusukela ebusheni babo,Banjengeliwayini lelihleli nje langakhuhlutiswa.
Abakake batfululwe kulesinye sitja batselwe kulesinye,Futsi abakake batfunjwe.
Kungako solo banambitseka njengobe bebanjalo,Neliphunga labo alikashintji.
12 “Jehova utsi: ‘Emalanga ayeta lapho ngitawutfumela khona emadvodza kutsi atobabhubhisa. Atawubatfulula futsi atfulule titja tabo, aphihlite netimbita tabo letinkhulu tibe ticucu.
13 Bantfu bakaMowabi batawuba nemahloni ngaKhemoshi, njengobe nje nebantfu baka-Israyeli banemahloni ngeBetheli lebebatsembele kuyo.+
14 Nisitsatsaphi sibindzi sekutsi: “Tsine silibutfo lelinemandla futsi siyilungele imphi”?’+
15 ‘Live lakaMowabi libhujisiwe,Emadolobha akhona ahlaselwe,+Emajaha akhona lanemandla kakhulu abulewe,’+Kusho iNkhosi, libito layo lokunguJehova wemabutfo.+
16 Inhlekelele letawehlela bantfu bakaMowabi seyiyasondzela,Futsi kuwa kwabo sekusemnyango.+
17 Bonkhe labasedvute nabo batabavela buhlungu,Lokungibo bonkhe lebebati kutsi badvume ngani.*
Batawutsi kubo: ‘Awu yaze yephuka indvuku lenemandla, yaze yephuka indvuku lenhle!’
18 Yehlani esikhundleni senu lesikhatimulako,Nihlale phansi ningenalutfo,* nine bantfu baseDiboni,*+Ngobe sesifikile sitsa lesitawuhlasela live lakaMowabi,Futsi sitawubhubhisa tindzawo tenu letivikelekile.+
19 Nine lenihlala e-Aroyeri,+ manini ngasemgwacweni nibukele.
Butani indvodza lebalekako nemfati lobalekako nitsi: ‘Kwentekeni?’
20 Live lakaMowabi lihlazekile futsi lesaba kakhulu.
Khalani futsi nilile,Nimemetele e-Anoni+ kutsi live lakaMowabi selibhujisiwe.
21 “Nkulunkulu sewulehlulele live lelibekile,*+ wehlulela iHoloni, iJahasi+ neMefathi;+
22 iDiboni,+ iNebo,+ neBhethi-diblathayimu;
23 iKhiriyathayimu,+ iBhethi-gamuli neBhethi-meyoni;+
24 iKheriyothi,+ neBhosra; kanye nawo onkhe emadolobha akaMowabi lasedvute nalakhashane.
25 ‘Live lakaMowabi licedvwe emandla;*Nemkhono walo wephuliwe,’ kusho Jehova.
26 ‘Linatsiseni lize lidzakwe,+ ngobe litiphakamisile, latenta ncono kunaJehova.+
Live lakaMowabi litigicita emahlanteni alo,Futsi seliyinhlekisa.
27 Israyeli bekangasiyo yini intfo yenu lenihlekisa ngayo?+
Kantsi namkhandza emkhatsini wetigebengu yini,Kutsi ningaze ninikine tinhloko futsi nikhulume kabi ngaye?
28 Nine bantfu bakaMowabi, shiyani emadolobha enu niyohlala emadvwaleni,Nibe njengelituba lelihlala ngasemaweni.’”
29 “Sivile ngekutigabatisa kwebantfu bakaMowabi, abatigcabhi nje ngumhlolo,Sivile nekutsi bayatiphakamisa, bayatati, bayatikhukhumeta futsi bayatigcabha.”+
30 “Jehova utsi: ‘Ngiyati kutsi basheshe batfukutsele,Kodvwa emavi abo lalite atawuphelela eteni.
Futsi kute nalabatakufeza.
31 Kungako ngitalililela live lakaMowabi,Ngikhalele bonkhe bantfu bakaMowabi,Futsi ngikhalele nemadvodza aseKhiri-heresi.+
32 Ngitakukhalela kakhulu kuneJazeri,+Ngikukhalele wena sihlahla semagilebisi saseSibima.+
Emagala akho lahlumako asakhule aze aya ngale kwelwandle.
Ahambe ayofika elwandle, aze afika ngisho naseJazeri.
Sitselo sakho sasehlobo kanye nemagilebisi lowavunileAhlaselwe sitsa lesibhubhisako.+
33 Kutfokota nenjabulo kususiwe ensimini yetitseloNaseveni lakaMowabi.+
Ngente kutsi liwayini lingasageleti etjeni lekuhlutela liwayini.
Kute nalotawumemeta ajabulile nakagcobagcoba emagilebisi.
Nanobe bantfu batawumemeta kodvwa angeke kube kumemeta kwenjabulo.’”+
34 “‘Kunemsindvo wekukhala eHeshboni+ lovakala nase-Eleyale.+
Bakhala kakhulu kuvakale ngisho naseJahasi,+Bakhala eSowari bavakale ngisho naseHoronayimu+ kuze kuyofika nase-Eglathi-shelishiya.
Kutawukoma ngisho nemanti aseNimrimu.’+
35 Jehova utsi: ‘Ngitamsusa kaMowabiLoyo lonikela umnikelo etindzaweni letiphakemeNaloyo lowentela bonkulunkulu bakhe imihlatjelo.
36 Kungako inhlitiyo yami itawukhala* njengemntjingo,* ikhalele live lakaMowabi,+Futsi itawukhala* njengemntjingo,* ikhalele emadvodza aseKhiri-heresi.
Ngobe umcebo labawucongelele utawushabalala.
37 Bonkhe bantfu banetimphandla,+Nato tonkhe tilevu tihhuliwe.
Tonkhe tandla tisikiwe,+Futsi babophe tindvwangu temasaka elukhalo!’”+
38 “‘Kulo lonkhe luphahla lwetindlu takaMowabiNakuto tonkhe timakethe takhona,Kuyalilwa nje kuphela.
Ngobe ngilephulile live lakaMowabiKuhle kweludziwo lolulahliwe,’ kusho Jehova.
39 ‘Maye lelive liyesaba! Lilani nine bantfu bakaMowabi!
Lelive lakaMowabi libalekile futsi lahlazeka!
Selibe yinhlekisa,Futsi bonkhe labadvutane nalo bafikelwa kwesaba nabalibuka.’”
40 “Naku Jehova lakushoko:
‘Njengelusweti loluntjweza luye phansi,+Nesitsa sitawelula timphiko taso etikwelive lakaMowabi.+
41 Emadolobha atawuncotjwa,Netindzawo talelive letivikelekile titawutsatfwa ngenkhani.
Ngalelolanga tinhlitiyo temasotja akaMowabiTitawuba njengenhlitiyo yemfati lobelekako.’”
42 “‘Live lakaMowabi litawubhujiswa lingabe lisaba sive,+Ngobe litiphakamisile, latenta ncono kunaJehova.+
43 Nihlalelwe kwesaba, ngumgodzi kanye nelugibe,Nine lenihlala kaMowabi,’ kusho Jehova.
44 ‘Nobe ngubani lobalekela kwesaba utawugcumkela emgodzini,Futsi nobe ngubani lophuma kulomgodzi utawubanjwa lugibe.’
‘Ngobe uyeta umnyaka lapho ngitalijezisa khona live lakaMowabi,’ kusho Jehova.
45 ‘Labo lababalekako batawuma esitfuntini saseHeshboni futsi batawube bete emandla.
Ngobe kutawuchamuka umlilo eHeshboniKuchamuke nelilangabi ekhatsi neSihoni.+
Lomlilo utawushisa emabunti akaMowabiNesikobho semasotja lanebudlova.’+
46 ‘Maye kini, nine bantfu bakaMowabi!
Bantfu lebebakhonta Khemoshi+ bashabalele.
Emadvodzana akaMowabi atfunjiwe,Nemadvodzakati akhona atfunjiwe.+
47 Kodvwa encenyeni yekugcina yemalanga ngitababutsisa ndzawonye bantfu bakaMowabi labatfunjiwe,’ kusho Jehova.
‘Uphela lapha-ke umlayeto lomayelana nekwehlulelwa kwelive lakaMowabi.’”+
