Bible Reading Plan – Day 145

₁₇Kungcono ukuphulaphula amazwi esilumko esithetha sizolile

kunokuzikhathaza ngokukhwaza komlawuli wezityhakala.

₁₈Ubulumko bubaluleke ngaphezu kwezixhobo zemfazwe,

kambe ke nomoni omnye nje angonakalisa lukhulu kwizinto ebezilungile.

₁Iimpukane ezifileyo zingasonakalisa isiqholo sitsho sibile sinuke,

ngokunjalo nentwana nje yobutyhakala ingabutshabhisa ubulumko ndawonye nesidima.

₂Intliziyo yesilumko isitsho sibe namandla;

kanti ke eyesityhakala isitsho sibe buthathaka.

₃Noba isityhakala sesihamba ngendlela, sibonakala kubo bonke ukuba simuncu.

Umntu onjalo uzicacisa nakubani na ukuba usisiyatha.

₄Xa ekhathazekile umlawuli wakho musa ukurhoxa esikhundleni sakho –

kaloku kukuzola into ewulungisayo umonakalo.

₅Apha phantsi kwelanga kukho ububi endibubonileyo,

impazamo eyenziwa ngophetheyo.

₆Izikhundla ezininzi eziphezulu zinikwa izityhakala,

zize ke zona izityebi zinikwe ezisezantsi.

₇Ndiwabonile amakhoboka ekhwele amahashe,

kodwa zona izikhulu zibhadaza ngeenyawo ngathi ngamakhoboka.

₈Umntu owomba umngxuma usenokweyela kuwo;

otyhoboza eludongeni usenokulunywa yinyoka.

₉Umntu owomba amatye usenokwenzakaliswa ngawo,

nocanda iinkuni usenokuba sengozini.

₁₀Xa izembe libuthuntu, lingalolwanga,

kufuneka ubethe ngamandla ngalo.

Kodwa ke bubuchule into enika impumelelo.

₁₁Inyoka kufuneka ilalaniswe ngaphambi kokuba imlume umntu,

kuba xa seyimlumile akusancedi lutho kumlalanisi wayo.

₁₂Anendili amazwi aphuma emlonyeni wesilumko,

ukanti ke sona isityhakala sizitshabalalisa ngemilebe yaso.

₁₃Siqala ngokulavuza,

size sigqibele sesiwanqa impambano.

₁₄Ewe, isityhakala sithetha singayeki.

Akukho mntu uyaziyo into eza kwehla,

kungekho namntu unokuyixela into eya kwenzeka kamva.

₁₅Umntu ongenangqondo uzidinisa ngomsebenzi,

aze ke akhohlwe nayindlela egodukayo isiya esixekweni.

₁₆Mawoo kwilizwe elikumkani ebesakuba likhoboka,

elimatshawe enza amatheko kusekusasa.

₁₇Kambe ke linoyolo ilizwe elikumkani uzalwa zizikhulu,

elimatshawe atya ngexesha elililo, efuna amandla, ingekuko ukunxila.

₁₈Ngobuvila iyawa imiqadi;

kozandla ziqhokriweyo indlu iyanetha.

₁₉Isidlo simenza onwabe umntu,

ke yona iwayini iyabudlamkisa ubomi;

kambe ke kuyo yonke into yimali ethethayo.

₂₀Ungaze umnyembe ukumkani, nditsho nangeengcinga;

nesityebi sukusinyelisa, noba sewusesililini sakho,

hleze kubekho ntakazana iphuma namazwi akho,

into enamaphiko iyixele loo ntetho.

₁Kusebenzise oko unako;

ngokuhamba kwexesha uya kufumana inzuzo.

₂Indyebo yakho yigcinise kwiindawo ezisixhenxe –

ewe, noba zide zasibhozo –

kuba kaloku akuyazi intlekele enokulihlela ihlabathi.

₃Amafu xa anemvula ayithulula emhlabeni;

noba umthi uwela ngasezantsi okanye ngasentla,

kodwa uhlala uthi ncwaba kuloo ndawo uwe kuyo.

₄Ukuba ujonge imo ethile yezulu soze ulime;

kanti ke ukuba uqwalasela amafu soze uvune.

₅Njengoko ungayazi indlela yomoya,

ungamazi nokuba wenziwa njani na umntu esizalweni sonina,

kananjalo soze ukuqonde nokusebenza kukaThixo onguMdali weento zonke.

₆Imbewu yihlwayele kusasa,

nangokuhlwa ungasiphumzi isandla sakho.

Kaloku akuyazi eya kuphumelela:

isenokuba yile okanye leya,

ukanti zisenokuphumelela zombini.

₇Kuyanambitheka ukukhanya;

kulungile emehlweni ukulibona ilanga.

₈Yixhamle ngokobungakanani bayo iminyaka yokudla kwakho ubomi,

ukhumbule ukuba imihla yobumnyama xa ungasekhoyo iya kuba mininzi.

Ewe, yonke into ezayo ingamampunge.

₉Wena mntu osemtsha, yonwaba ngethuba lobutsha bakho,

intliziyo yakho ichwayite lo gama uselula.

Yenze loo nto isentliziyweni yakho,

nditsho leyo ibonwa ngamehlo akho,

kambe ke ukhumbule ukuba uza kuziphendulela enkundleni kaThixo ngayo yonke into oyenzileyo.

₁₀Ngoko ke ligxothe ixhala entliziyweni yakho,

ukuphephe okunokwenzakalisa umzimba wakho.

Kaloku ubutsha namandla awo ngamampunge.

₁Mkhumbule uMdali wakho ngemihla yobutsha bakho,

ngoku ingekafiki imihla yeenkathazo,

ingekasondeli neminyaka apho uya kuthi: “Akukho nto imnandi ekudleni ubomi.”

₂Ngelo thuba ke ukukhanya kwelanga, inyanga, neenkwenkwezi, kosuka kufiphale kuwe,

nezulu lihlale lisibekele ngathi kungemva kwemvula.

₃Iingalo zakho ebezikukhusela ziya kuba nomkhinkqi;

ngokunjalo nale milenze yakho yomeleleyo okwangoku iya kuba nengevane.

Uya kuba ungasenako ukuhlafuna, kuba amazinyo embalwa,

namehlo selemfiliba, ungasaboni kakuhle.

₄Iindlebe ziya kuba sezixinene, ungabi sayiva nengxolo esesitalatweni,

nditsho nesandi selitye lokusila.

Uya kuvuka kusasa zisantyiloza iintaka,

noxa kungasekho nayiphi na ingoma onokuyiva.

₅Ngelo xesha uya kuzoyika iindawo eziphakamileyo,

ngokunjalo uziphephe iingozi ezitalatweni.

Iinwele zakho zosuka zibe mhlophe oku kom-amangile otyatyambileyo,

nasekuhambeni ungabi nako nokuzirhuqa oku,

ke yona iminqweno ingabi nako ukuvuseleleka.

Kaloku umntu uhlalelwe kukuhamba

aye ekhayeni lakhe laphakade,

abazili behle benyuka ezitalatweni.

₆Ewe kaloku, umxokelelwana wesiliva uya kushunquka,

nesibane segolide siwe saphuke;

ukanti ke nentambo phaya equleni iya kuqhawuka,

nomphanda utsho ukroboke.

₇Ke lona uthuli lwethu luya kubuyela emhlabeni, apho lwaluvele khona kakade,

umoya ubuyele kuThixo njengoko wawuvela kuye.

₈Ewe, itsho iNgqondi ukuthi: “Ngamampunge akwampunge! Yonke into ngamampunge!”
