UYobi: Ngubani ongàzaziyo ezi zinto?
1Ke uYobi waphendula wathi:
2“Inene, ningabona bantu;
ibe ke nobulumko buya kufa nani!
3Kambe ke nam ndinengqondo njengani;
anindidluli nganto.
Kakade ke nithi ngubani ongàzaziyo ezi zinto?
4“Mna ndiyakhala kuThixo, aze andiphendule;
kodwa ngoku sendiyintlekisa nakwizihlobo zam –
ewe, ilungisa lomfo ongenabala,
kambe ke namhlanje ndisisigculelo!
5Oseshweni uyadelwa ngabathe zava;
ogxadazelayo uyakhatywa!
6Kukho ulonwabo ezindlwini zezikrelemnqa;
abamqumbisayo uThixo bakhuselekile;
nditsho abo bacingayo ukuba uThixo usezandleni zabo.
7“Kodwa ke khanibuze nakwiinyamakazi, ziya kunifundisa;
nibuze nasezintakeni, zinixelele.
8Khaningqawe ulwazi nakwizilo zomhlaba, ziya kuninika;
ninkinkqe ukuqonda nasezintlanzini elwandle, ziya kuniphokozela.
9Phakathi kwazo akukho ungaqondiyo ukuba le nto yenziwe *nguNdikhoyo.
10Kaloku zonke izinto eziphilayo zisesandleni sakhe,
nobomi boluntu lonke buxhomekeke kuye.
11Kaloku kwanjengokuba umlomo usiva ubunjani bokutya,
nendlebe ke iyawaphicotha amazwi.
12Ubulumko buyafumaneka kwiingwevu;
ke bona ubudala buza namava.
13“Kanti ke yena uThixo unobulumko namandla,
amacebo nengqiqo.
14Into ayiqhaqhileyo akukho mntu unokubuya ayakhe;
ngokunjalo nomntu amvaleleyo akukho ungamvulelayo.
15UThixo akuwavalela amanzi kuyabalela;
kanti ke akuwavulela kutsho kube ziimpuphuma.
16Ukomelela noloyiso lolwakhe,
kanti ke nabakhohlisi ngokunjalo nabakhohliswa basesandleni sakhe.
17Yena amaphakathi uwatsho ancitheke,
nabagwebi abatsho babe ziimpanga-mpanga.
18Uyawakhulula amakhamandela aqhotyoshwe ngookumkani,
aze bona ngokwabo abanxibise umbhinqo wamabanjwa.
19Ababingeleli ubatsho baphoxeke,
aze wona amakhwahla awakhiqe.
20Amaciko athenjiweyo uwatsho abhibhidle;
aze ayiphuthise nengqiqo yamadoda amakhulu.
21Amatshawe uwahlaza ngendelelo;
ke zona iingwanyalala uzihlutha izixhobo.
22Utyhila izinto ezifihlakele ezinzulwini zobumnyama,
nobona bumbonde-mbonde abujike bube kukukhanya.
23Uyazikhulisa izizwe, abuye azivuthulule;
azithi jize ngobungangalala, abuye aziyekele zithinjwe.
24Iinkokheli zezizwe uzitsho zibe zizithwanga-thwanga,
zifathule zibhadula enkangala.
25Ngoko ke ziphutha-phutha ebumnyameni, kungekho kukhanya;
zigxadazele njengamanxila.”
