Chapter 22
Isai Ndebele 22:1  Umthwalo wesigodi sombono. Kutheni kuwe khathesi, ukuthi ngulowo lalowo wakho akhwele empahleni zezindlu?
Isai Ndebele 22:2  Wena ogcwele imisindo, muzi oxokozelayo, dolobho elilentokozo, ababuleweyo bakho kababulawanga ngenkemba, kabafelanga empini.
Isai Ndebele 22:3  Bonke ababusi bakho babaleke kanyekanye, babotshwe ngabatshoki, bonke abatholakala kuwe, babotshiwe kanyekanye, babaleke besuka khatshana.
Isai Ndebele 22:4  Ngenxa yalokhu ngathi: Susani amehlo kimi; kangikhale kabuhlungu; ungaphangisi ukungiduduza ngenxa yokuchitheka kwendodakazi yabantu bakithi.
Isai Ndebele 22:5  Ngoba kulusuku lokusanganiseka, lolokunyathelela phansi, lolokuphithizela kweNkosi uJehova wamabandla esigodini sombono, lokudilizela phansi umduli, lolokuhlaba umkhosi kuze kube sentabeni.
Isai Ndebele 22:6  IElamu yathatha-ke isikhwama semitshoko, kanye lenqola, abantu, abagadi bamabhiza; leKiri yembula isihlangu.
Isai Ndebele 22:7  Kuzakuthi-ke izigodi zakho ezikhethekileyo zigcwala izinqola, labagadi bamabhiza bazihlele lokuzihlela ngasesangweni.
Isai Ndebele 22:8  Njalo yena uzakwembula isimbombozo sakoJuda; langalolosuku wena uzakhangela izikhali zendlu yehlathi.
Isai Ndebele 22:9  Njalo lizabona imikenke yomuzi kaDavida, ukuthi minengi, liqoqe amanzi echibini elingaphansi.
Isai Ndebele 22:10  Lizabala izindlu zeJerusalema, lidilize izindlu ukuze liqinise umduli.
Isai Ndebele 22:11  Lizakwenza ichibi phakathi kwemiduli yomibili lisenzela amanzi omgodi omdala. Kodwa kaliyikukhangela kowakwenzayo, kalimnanzanga owakubumbayo kudala.
Isai Ndebele 22:12  Langalolosuku iNkosi uJehova wamabandla izamemezela ukulila, lokukhala, lokuphucwa kwamakhanda, lokugqokwa kwesaka.
Isai Ndebele 22:13  Kodwa khangela, injabulo lokuthaba, ukubulawa kwenkomo, lokuhlatshwa kwezimvu, ukudliwa kwenyama, lokunathwa kwewayini; lathi: Asidleni sinathe, ngoba kusasa sizakufa.
Isai Ndebele 22:14  Kodwa iNkosi yamabandla yembula endlebeni zami isithi: Isibili lesisono kaliyikusenzelwa inhlawulo yokuthula lize life, kutsho iNkosi uJehova wamabandla.
Isai Ndebele 22:15  Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova wamabandla: Hamba uye kulo umphathi, kuShebina, ophezu kwendlu, uthi:
Isai Ndebele 22:16  Ulani lapha, njalo ulobani lapha, ukuthi uzigebhele ingcwaba lapha, njengozigebhela ingcwaba lakhe phezulu, ozigubhela indawo yokuhlala edwaleni?
Isai Ndebele 22:17  Khangela, iNkosi izakujikijela khatshana ngokujika kwendoda; izakugoqela ngokukugoqela,
Isai Ndebele 22:18  ikuthandele lokukuthandela njengebhola eligoqelwayo; njengebhola izakuphosela elizweni elibanzi; lalapho uzafela, lalapho izinqola zodumo lwakho zizakuba lihlazo, olwendlu yenkosi yakho!
Isai Ndebele 22:19  Njalo ngizakusunduza usuke esikhundleni sakho, ikuwise ekumeni kwakho.
Isai Ndebele 22:20  Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku ngibize inceku yami uEliyakhimi indodana kaHilikhiya;
Isai Ndebele 22:21  ngizamgqokisa isigqoko sakho, ngimqinise ngebhanti lakho, nginikeze umbuso wakho esandleni sakhe; njalo yena uzakuba nguyise kubahlali beJerusalema lendlini yakoJuda.
Isai Ndebele 22:22  Ngizabeka-ke isihluthulelo sendlu kaDavida ehlombe lakhe; yena uzavula kungavali muntu, avale kungavuli muntu.
Isai Ndebele 22:23  Ngizambethela njengesikhonkwane endaweni eqinileyo; njalo uzakuba yisihlalo sobukhosi esilodumo endlini kayise.
Isai Ndebele 22:24  Njalo bazaphanyeka phezu kwakhe udumo lonke lwendlu kayise, inzalo lembewu, zonke izitsha ezincinyane, kusukela ezitsheni zenkezo kusiya kuzo zonke izitsha zeziphiso.
Isai Ndebele 22:25  Ngalolosuku, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, isikhonkwane esabethelwa endaweni eqinileyo sizasuswa, siganyulwe siwe; lomthwalo obuphezu kwaso uzaqunywa; ngoba iNkosi ikhulumile.
