Mikha
6 Ngicela nilalele naku lokushiwo nguJehova.
Sukumani nitivikele ecaleni lenibekwe lona, nitivikele embikwetintsaba,
Futsi shengatsi emagcuma anganiva.+
2 Awu nine tintsaba, lalelani nali licala lelibekwa nguJehova etafuleni,
Lalelani nine tisekelo leticinile temhlaba,+
Ngobe Jehova ubabeke licala bantfu bakhe.
Utawabeka ema-Israyeli licala, atsi:+
3 “Awu bantfu bami, kukhona yini lenginente kona?
Ukhona yini umtfwalo lenginetfwese wona lonente nadzinwa?+
Ngicela nikhulume.
4 Mine nganikhipha eGibhithe,+
Nganikhulula eveni lebenigcilateke kulo;+
Futsi ngatfuma Mosi, Aroni naMiriyamu kini.+
5 Awu bantfu bami, ngicela nikhumbule loko Bhalaki inkhosi yakaMowabi lebekafuna kukwenta,+
Kanye naloko Bhalamu indvodzana yaBheyori lamtjela kona.+
Khumbulani netintfo letenteka kusukela eShithimu+ kuze kuyofika eGilgali,+
Khona nitewubona kutsi Jehova wenta lokulungile.”
6 Ngitawuta ngiphetseni embikwaJehova?
Ngitawuta nani nangitokhotsama embikwaNkulunkulu lohlala endzaweni lephakeme?
Ngitawuta kuye ngiphetse umnikelo wekushiswa lophelele yini,
Nobe ematfole lanemnyaka munye?+
7 Timvu letindvuna letinyenti kakhulu tingamjabulisa yini Jehova,
Angamjabulisa yini emafutsa lamanyenti kakhulu?+
Nginganikela yini ngendvodzana yami lelitibulo kuze kwesulwe licala lami,
8 Awu wena muntfu, Jehova ukutjelile kutsi yini lenhle.
Yini layilindzele* kuwe?
Nakisisani siyalo, ninakisise naloyo losikhiphako.*+
10 Umcebo lotfolakele ngekukhohlakala usekhona yini etindlini talababi,
Futsi tisekhona yini tikali teli-efa* letingemanga, letenyanywa nguNkulunkulu?
11 Bengingabe ngenta kahle* yini nangingasebentisa tikali letingaketsembeki,
Futsi ngibe netisindvo letikhohlisako esikhwameni sami?+
12 Tinjinga takulelidolobha tihlale tenta budlova,
Futsi bantfu bakhona bakhuluma emanga;+
Nelulwimi lwabo luyakhohlisa.+
13 “Ngako ngitanijezisa kakhulu,+
Futsi ngitanenta nisale ningenabani, ngenca yetono tenu.
14 Nitawudla, kodvwa ngeke nesutse;
Futsi nitawuhlale nilambile.+
Nitawutsatsa tintfo nitsi niyatilondvolota, kepha tingalondvoloteki,
Naloko lenitawukhona kukulondvolota, ngitakunikela etitseni tenu.
15 Nitawuhlanyela, kodvwa ngeke nivune.
Nitawugcobagcoba titselo temincumo, kodvwa ngeke niwasebentise lawo mafutsa;
Futsi nitawenta liwayini lelisha, kodvwa ngeke nize nilinatse.+
16 Ngobe nilandzela imitsetfo ya-Omri, nayo yonkhe imikhuba ya-Ahabi nemndeni wakhe,+
Futsi nilalela seluleko sabo.
Kungako-ke ngitanijezisa.
