INTSHUMAYELI 1
1
Yonke into ingamampunge
1Amazwi eNtshumayeli, unyana kaDavide, ukumkani waseYerusalem.
2Amampunge awo amampunge, itsho iNtshumayeli; amampunge awo amampunge, yonke into ingamampunge. 3Únalungelo lini umntu emigudwini yakhe yonke, ayenzayo phantsi kwelanga? 4Kumka esinye isizukulwana, kulandele esinye isizukulwana; ke lona ihlabathi limi ngonaphakade. 5Ilanga liyaphuma, ilanga libuya litshone, liphikele endaweni yalo apho liphuma khona. 6Umoya uya ezantsi, ujikeleze usinge entla, uhamba ujikajikeleza, ubuye ubuya umoya ekujikelezeni kwawo. 7Yonke imilambo iya elwandle, ukanti ulwandle aluzali; endaweni eya kuyo imilambo, ibuya iye kwakhona. 8Zonke izinto ziyazixhamla; umntu akanako ukuzithetha; alihlúthi iliso kukubona, ayizali indlebe kukuva.
9Into eyayikho yeya kubuya ibekho; into eyenzekáyo yeya kubuya yenzeke yona. Akukho nto intsha phantsi kwelanga. 10Ukuba kukho into ekuthiwa, Yabona, le intsha! ibiselikho kade, emaphakadeni abekho ngaphambi kwethu. 11Akukho kukhumbula abokuqala; nabasemva abaya kubakho, abayi kukhunjulwa ngabaya kuza emva kwabo.
12Mna, Ntshumayeli, ndibe ndingukumkani kwaSirayeli eYerusalem. 13Intliziyo yam ndayinikela ukuba ingxoke, isingasinge ngobulumko, yonke into eyenzekayo phantsi kwezulu; ngumzamo ombi uThixo awuniké oonyana babantu, ukuba bawuzame. 14Ndazikhangela zonke izenzo ezenzékayo phantsi kwelanga; yabona, zonke zingamampunge nokusukelana nomoya. 15Into egoso ayinakolulwa; into engekhoyo ayinakubalwa.
16Ndathetha mna nentliziyo yam, ndisithi, Yabona, mna ndikhulisé ndandisa ubulumko, ngaphezu kwabo bonke ababephethe iYerusalem phambi kwam; nentliziyo yam iboné kakhulu ubulumko nokwazi. 17Intliziyo yam ndayinikela ekwazini ubulumko, nasekwazini ubugeza nobuyatha; kwanaloo nto ndayiqonda ukuba kukusukelana nomoya. 18Ngokuba ebuninzini bobulumko kukho ukuhlelwa sisiyengelezane esininzi; owongeza ukwazi, wongeza umvandedwa.
