ICANDELO LOKUQALA

(IiNdumiso 1 – 41)

Ilungisa nomoni

1¹Hayi inyhweba yomntu ongahambiyo ngecebo labantw' abagwenxa,

ongahambiyo ekhondweni lamatshijolo,

umnt' ongadlelaniyo nabaphoxisayo.

²Lowo wonwatyiswa yimiyalelo *kaNdikhoyo,

ayetyise emini nasebusuku.

³Unjengomth' otyalwe ngasemijelweni yamanzi,Jer 17:8

umth' ovelisa iziqhamo ngexesha leziqhamo,

umth' omagqabi angasoz' abune.

Ewe, konk' akwenzayo umnt' onjalo kuyaphumelela.

⁴Àbanjalo kambe bona abantw' abagwenxa;

bona banjengomquq' ophetshethwa ngumoya.

⁵Ngenxa yoko aboni abanako ukujongana nenkundla,

koko bona baya kugxothwa embizweni yamalungisa.

⁶Kaloku uNdikhoyo uyalusile indlela yamalungisa;

ke indlela yabakhohlakeleyo iya kudaka.

UMthanjiswa kaThixo

2¹Ngani na izizwe zisenza imbudumbudu nje?

Ngani na abantu besenza amayelenqe azé nje?

²Ookumkani bemi bume,

neziphathamandla zenza amabhunga

okuvukela *uNdikhoyo nomthanjiswa wakhe,Mseb 4:25-26 besithi:

³“Masiziqhawule ezo mbophelelo zabo,

sikhululeke kuloo makhamandela abo.”

⁴Lowo ungqendeve esihlalweni sakhe ezulwini uyabahleka;

uNdikhoyo usuka abagxwale.

⁵Uya kusuka akhalimele ngomsindo,

abankwantyise ngengqumbo yakhe, athi:

⁶“Ndim lo umisele lo kumkani wam phezu kweZiyon,

intaba yam ncakasana.”

⁷Ewe, ndivakalisa isibhengezo sikaNdikhoyo esithi:

“Ungunyana wam wena; ndikuzele namhlanje.Mseb 13:33; Hebh 1:5; 5:5

⁸Cela kum, ndikunike iintlanga zibe lilifa lakho,

namaphethelo ehlabathi abe ngawakho.

⁹Wòzilawula ngegqudu lentsimbi,

ùzintlekeze zibe ziingceba oku kwezitya zomdongwe.SiTyh 2:26-27; 12:5; 19:15”

¹⁰Ngoko ke, nina bokumkani, lumkani,

nina ziphathamandla zelizwe, yalekani.

¹¹Mkhonzeni ngembeko uNdikhoyo,

nivuye ninokuzoyikela.

¹²Khahlelani kuye unyana ngentobeko,

hleze aniqumbele nitshabalale endleleni;

kaloku umsindo wakhe uyakhawuleza.

Hayi uyolo lwabo bonke abazimela ngoNdikhoyo!

Umthandazo wokucela uncedo kusasa

Umhobe kaDavide xa wayesaba uAbhasalom unyana wakhe.2 Sam 15:13 – 17:22

3¹*Ndikhoyo, hay' ukuba ninzi kwazo iintshaba zam!

Ewe, zindivukela zinguMbo nomXesibe.

²Zide zithi xa zithetha ngam:

“Naloo Thixo wakhe akamhlanguli konke!”

³Kambe ke, wena Ndikhoyo, ulikhaka lam.

Usisidima sam; undenza ndibe neqhayiya.

⁴Ndiyakhala, ndibhenele kuNdikhoyo,

andiphendule esentabeni yakhe eyodwa.

⁵Ndiyaphumla, ndilale ubuthongo,

ndibuye ndivuke, kuba uNdikhoyo uyandixhasa.

⁶Andiwoyiki amawaka-waka eentshaba,

naxa zindirhawule nje, zindingqonge macal' onke.

⁷Khawuphakame ume, Ndikhoyo!

Ndisindise, Thixo wam!

Kaloku nguwe ozoyisayo zonk' iintshaba zam;

ewe, nguwe ozaphul' iimpondo iintshaba zam.

⁸Ukuhlangulwa kuvela kuwe, Ndikhoyo;

khawubathamsanqele ke abantu bakho!
