Emavi lahlakaniphile a-Aguri
1Leti-ke taga ta-Aguri, umsa waJakhe waseMasa: “Nkulunkulu ungilahlile, ungilahle mbamba, sengiphelelwe ngemandla! 2Sengifanana nesilwane, angisesiye umuntfu, ngobe tintfo angisaticondzi njengemuntfu. 3Angikakufundzi kuhlakanipha; angimati naLongcwele.
4 “Ngubani lowake waya ezulwini waphindze wabuya?
Ngubani lophetse imimoya etandleni takhe?
Ngubani logocotele emanti ngengubo yakhe?
Ngubani lowamisa yonkhe imikhawulo yemhlaba?
Ngubani libito lakhe nelendvodzana yakhe?
Ungangitjela nje?
5 “Nkulunkulu wetsembekile etetsembisweni takhe. Uyabaphephisa labo labeta kutewukhosela kuye. 6 Ungengeti lutfo etetsembisweni takhe. Uma uke wengeta nje, uyakukutsetsisa utfolakale ungumuntfu wemanga.”
Letinye taga
7Ticelo tami timbili, Nkulunkulu, lengicela kutsi ungiphe ngisengakafi: 8 Ngisindzise ekukhulumeni emanga. Buphuya nebunjinga ungangiphi, kodvwa umane ungiphe lengikudzingako. 9 Nangingaba nako kube kunyenti, ngingahle ngicabange kutsi wena angisakudzingi, ngidzimate ngitsi: “Ngubani yena loSimakadze?” Nome-ke nangingaba luphuya, ngingahle ngebe, ngaloko ngihlazise Nkulunkulu wami.
10Ungakhulumi kabi ngesisebenti kumphatsi waso; nawenta loko, sitakucalekisa uhlupheke.
11Labanye bantfu bacalekisa boyise, bangabongi ngisho nekubonga kubonina.
12Labanye bantfu bacabanga kutsi bona bahlantekile; kantsi bangcole kakhulu, abakahlantwa.
13Labanye bayatigcabha, bahlala ngekuchukuluta labanye bantfu.
14Labanye bantfu banematinyo latinkemba, nemihlatsi lengimikhwa; yebo, babukhali. Baloshela bamite tonkhe timphuya emhlabeni.
15Simunyangati unemadvodzakati lamabili; emabito awo boNgiphe naNgiphe.
Tintsatfu tintfo letingeneliswa, kantsi empeleni tine letingeke tisho titsi: “Sekwenele”:
16 Lithuna,
nemfati loyinyumba,
nemhlabatsi lowomele imvula,
nemlilo longacimeki.
17 Liso leliphukuta uyise, ledzelele nenina nasagugile, liyawukhokhwa ngemahhwabayi; yebo, lowo muntfu uyawuba kudla kwemangce.
18Kukhona tintfo letintsatfu letiyimfihlakalo, kantsi empeleni tine lengingaticondzi kahle:
19Yindlela yelusweti esibhakabhakeni,
nendlela yenyoka edvwaleni,
nendlela yemkhumbi elwandle,
nendlela yelijaha entfombini.
20Lena-ke yindlela yemfati loyingwadla: Udla esule umlomo, bese utsi: “Angikenti lutfo mine lolubi.”
21Tintsatfu tintfo letitfutfumelisa umhlaba, kantsi empeleni tine umhlaba lowehluleka kutibeketelela:
22 Kubekwa kwesigcili kuba yinkhosi,
silima nasishaye inala,
23kushada kwentfombi lebeyenyanywa ngemajaha,
nesidzandzane lesisisebenti,
nase sengcelele umfati endvodzeni yakhe.
24Lapha emhlabeni kukhona tilwanyakatana letincane, kodvwa tihlakaniphe kakhulu:
25 Tintfutfwane: tibutsakatsaka, kodvwa tikwekhweta ehlobo kudla kwato.
26Timbila: tilwanyakatana letite emandla, noko takha emakhaya ato emadvwaleni.
27Sikhonyane: site inkhosi, noko sihamba ngemaviyo.
28Tibankhwa: ungatibamba ngesandla, kodvwa ungatikhandza ngisho nasetindlini temakhosi.
29Kunetintfo letintsatfu letihamba ngekutigcabha; kodvwa leti letine tihamba ngekutigabatisa:
30Libhubesi: linemandla kunato tonkhe tilwane, futsi alesabi lutfo.
31 Lichudze: liyantontomela emkhatsini wetikhukhukati.
Siphongo: singumholi wemhlambi wetimbuti.
Inkhosi: nayime embikwemabutfo ayo.
32 Nangabe wente bulima watiphakamisa nome wacabanga kwenta lokubi, sale sewuyekela. 33Kuphehla lubisi kuveta liphehla. Kushaya likhala kuveta ingati. Kanjalo, nekususa luchuku kuveta kucabana.
