₃Ngomsindo wokudubhuza kwezinselo zamahhashi akhe anamandla,

nangokuduma kwezinqola zakhe,

nangodumo lwamasondo akhe

ngenxa yobuthakathaka bezandla zabo

₄ngenxa yosuku olufika ukuchitha onke amaFilisti

nokunquma eTire naseSidoni bonke abasizi abaseleyo,

ngokuba uJehova uyakuwachitha amaFilisti,

insali yesiqhingi saseKafitori.

₅Ubumpandla bulehlele iGaza;

i-Ashikeloni liphelile,

insali yesigodi sabo;

uyakuzisika kuze kube nini na?

₆“Awu wena nkemba kaJehova,

Buyela emgodleni wakho,

₇Ingathula kanjani,

lapho iyalezwe nguJehova, na?

Uyinqumele i-Ashikeloni nogu lolwandle.”

“Wo kulo iNebo,

ngokuba lichithekile,

iKiriyatayimi lijabhile, linqotshiwe;

iMisigabi lijabhile, liphelile amandla.

₂Udumo lukaMowabi alusekho;

eHeshiboni bacebe okubi ngaye ngokuthi:

Wozani simnqume, angabe esaba yisizwe.

Nawe Madimeni uyakuthuliswa,

inkemba ikulandele.

₃Izwi lokukhala livela eHoranayimi,

ukuchithwa nokuqothulwa okukhulu.

₄UMowabi uchithekile;

abancane bakhe bezwakalisa ukukhala.

₅Ngokuba bakhuphuka egqumeni laseLuthite,

bekhala njalo,

nasekwehleni ukuya eHoronayimi

bezwile usizi lokukhala kwencithakalo.

₆Balekani, nisindise ukuphila kwenu,

nibe njengesihlahla esiyize ehlane.

₇Ngokuba ngenxa yokwethemba

kwakho imisebenzi yakho

nengcebo yakho nawe uyakubanjwa,

uKemoshi aye ekuthunjweni,

abapristi bakhe nezikhulu zakhe kanyekanye.

₈Umchithi uyakufikela yonke imizi,

akuyikuphunyuka muzi;

isigodi siyakuchithwa,

ithafa liqothulwe,

njengalokho uJehova eshilo.

₉Nikani uMowabi amaphiko,

ngokuba uyakundiza, aphume;

imizi yakhe iyakuba yincithakalo,

kungabikho osahlala kuyo.

₁₀“Makaqalekiswe owenza umsebenzi

kaJehova ngokunganakekeli,

aqalekiswe naye ogodla inkemba yakhe egazini.

₁₁“UMowabi ugciniwe kwasebusheni bakhe,

uphumulile enhleseni yakhe,

kathululwanga ezitsheni ngezitsha,

akayanga ekuthunjweni;

ngalokho ukuzwakala kwakhe kuhlala kuye,

nephunga lakhe aliguquki.

₁₂Ngalokho bheka, izinsuku ziyeza,” usho uJehova,

“engiyakuthuma ngazo kuye abathambekayo

abayakumthambeka,

bazithulule izitsha zakhe,

baziphohloze izimvaba zakhe.

₁₃UMowabi uyakujabha ngoKemoshi,

njengalokhu indlu ka-Israyeli yajabha ngeBethele,

ithemba labo.

₁₄“Ningasho kanjani ukuthi:

‘Singamaqhawe

namadoda anamandla okulwa’ na?

₁₅Umchithi kaMowabi nemizi yakhe bakhuphukile,

izinsizwa zakhe ezikhethekileyo zehlele ukuyobulawa,”

isho iNkosi egama layo linguJehova Sebawoti.

₁₆“Ingozi kaMowabi iseduze ukufika,

usizi lwakhe lushesha kakhulu.

₁₇Nina nonke enimzungezayo manimkhalele;

nani nonke enilaziyo igama lakhe anothi:

‘Yeka ukwaphuka kwenduku enamandla,

udondolo oluhle!’

₁₈“Yehla ebukhosini bakho,

uhlale womile,

ndodakazi, ohlala eDiboni,

ngokuba umchithi kaMowabi ukhuphukela kuwe,

achithe izinqaba zakho.

₁₉Yima endleleni,

uqaphele wena ohlezi e-Aroweri,

ubuze obalekayo nowesifazane ophunyukayo ukuthi:

‘Kwenze njani na?’

₂₀UMowabi ujabhile, uphelile amandla;

hhewulani, nikhale,

nikwazise e-Arinoni

ukuthi uMowabi uchithiwe.

₂₁Ukwahlulela kwehlele izwe lethafa:

iHoloni, neJahasi, neMefahati,

₂₂neDiboni, neNebo,

neBeti Dibilatayimi,

₂₃neKiriyatayimi, neBeti Gamuli,

neBeti Mehoni,

₂₄neKeriyote, neBosira,

nemizi yonke yezwe lakwaMowabi

ekude noma eseduze.

₂₅Uphondo lukaMowabi lunqunyiwe,

ingalo yakhe yaphukile,” usho uJehova.

₂₆“Mdakiseni, ngokuba uzikhukhumezile kuJehova;

uMowabi makahuquzele ebuhlanzweni bakhe, abe ngohlekwayo naye.

₂₇U-Israyeli wayengahlekwa nguwe na?

Wafunyanwa phakathi kwamasela,

njengokuba, lapho ukhuluma ngaye,

unikina ikhanda, na?

₂₈Shiyani imizi,

nihlale esiweni nina enakhileyo kwaMowabi,

nibe njengejuba elakha emaceleni omlomo wesiwa.

₂₉Sizwile ngokuzidla kukaMowabi okukhulu kakhulu,

ukuziphakamisa kwakhe,

nokuzidla kwakhe,

nokuziqhenya kwakhe,

nokuzikhukhumeza kwenhliziyo yakhe.

₃₀Ngiyazi intukuthelo yakhe,” usho uJehova;

“amacebo akhe ayinkohliso,

nalokhu akwenzayo kuyinkohliso.

₃₁Ngalokho ngiyakuhhewula ngoMowabi,

ngikhale ngaye wonke uMowabi,

balilisele amadoda aseKhiri Heresi.

₃₂Ngiyakukhalela wena mvini waseSibima kunokukhala kukaJazeri;

amagatsha akho adlulile ulwandle,

afinyelela elwandle lwakwaJazeri;

umchithi uthelekele phezu kwezithelo zenu namavini enu.

₃₃Ukuthokoza nokujabula kususiwe

ensimini nasezweni lakwaMowabi;

ngenze ukuba kuphele iwayini ezikhamweni;

akusayikunyathelwa ngokujabula,

ukumemeza akuseyikho ukumemeza.

₃₄“Kusukela eHeshiboni elikhalayo

liyezwakalisa ukukhala kwalo

kuze kube se-Elehale naseJahasi,

kusukela eSowari kuze kube seHoronayimi

nase-Egilati Shelishiya,

ngokuba namanzi aseNimrimi ayakuba yincithakalo.

₃₅Ngiyakwenza ukuba kuphele kwaMowabi,” usho uJehova,

“yena onikela ezindaweni eziphakemeyo

noshisela onkulunkulu bakhe impepho.

₃₆“Ngalokho inhliziyo yami

ikhalela uMowabi njengemitshingo,

futhi inhliziyo yami

ikhalela amadoda aseKhiri Heresi njengemitshingo,

ngokuba okuseleyo abakuzuzileyo kuyachitheka.

₃₇Ngokuba onke amakhanda ayizimpandla,

nazo zonke izilevu zigundiwe;

zonke izandla zisikiwe,

nasezinkalweni zonke kukhona indwangu yamasaka.

₃₈Phezu kwazo zonke izindlu zakwaMowabi

nasezitaladini zakhe kukhona isililo kuphela,

ngokuba ngimaphulile uMowabi

njengesitsha okungathokozi muntu ngaso,” usho uJehova.

₃₉“Yeka ukuphela kwakhe amandla.

Hhewulani!

Yeka ukufulathela kukaMowabi ngamahloni,

uMowabi abe ngohlekwayo noqeda amandla

kubo bonke abamzungezayo.”

“Bheka, uyandiza njengokhozi,

elulele amaphiko akhe kuMowabi.

₄₁Imizi inqotshiwe,

nezinqaba zithathiwe;

izinhliziyo zamaqhawe akwaMowabi

ziyakuba njengenhliziyo yowesifazane onemihelo.

₄₂UMowabi uyakuchithwa,

angabe esaba yisizwe,

ngokuba uzikhukhumezile kuJehova.

₄₃Ukwesaba, nomgodi, nogibe

kuphezu kwabakhileyo kwaMowabi,” usho uJehova.

₄₄“Obalekela ukwesaba uyakuwela emgodini,

okhuphuka emgodini uyakubanjwa ogibeni,

ngokuba ngiyakwehlisela phezu kwabo,

phezu kukaMowabi,

umnyaka wokujeziswa kwabo,” usho uJehova.

₄₅“Emthunzini waseHeshiboni

ababalekileyo bayema bephelile amandla,

ngokuba umlilo uphumile eHeshiboni,

nelangabi phakathi kweSihoni;

udlile amacele akwaMowabi,

nokhakhayi lwamadoda omsindo okulwa.

₄₆Maye kuwena Mowabi!

Abantu bakaKemoshi baphelile,

ngokuba amadodana akho athunjiwe,

namadodakazi akho ayiswe ekuthunjweni.

₄₇Kepha ngiyakubuyisa ukuthunjwa kukaMowabi

ngezinsuku ezizayo,” usho uJehova.

“U-Israyeli kanamadodana,

kanandlalifa, na?

UMilkomu udleleni ifa likaGadi,

abantu bakhe bahlale emizini yakhe, na?

₂Ngalokho bheka, izinsuku ziyeza,” usho uJehova,

“lapho ngiyakwenza ukuba kuhlatshwe umkhosi wempi

ngeRaba labantwana bakwa-Amoni;

liyakuba yincithakalo,

imizi yalo ishiswe ngomlilo,

u-Israyeli abeselidla ifa lowalidla elakhe,” usho uJehova.

₃“Hhewula, Heshiboni,

ngokuba i-Ayi lichithekile,

nikhale, madodakazi aseRaba,

nibhince izindwangu zamasaka,

nilile, nigijime phakathi kwezintango,

ngokuba uMilikomu uyakuya ekuthunjweni,

abapristi bakhe nezikhulu zakhe kanyekanye.

₄Uzidumiselani ngezigodi,

isigodi sakho esichichimayo,

wena ndodakazi ehlubukayo,

othemba engcebeni yakho ngokuthi:

‘Ngubani ongehlela mina, na?’

₅Bheka, ngiyakwehlisela phezu kwakho uvalo,” isho iNkosi uJehova Sebawoti,

“luvela kubo bonke abakuzungezayo,

nixoshwe, kube yilowo nalowo ngendlela yakhe,

kungabikho obutha ababalekileyo.

₆“Kepha ngasemuva ngiyakubuyisa

ukuthunjwa kwabantwana bakwa-Amoni,” usho uJehova.

₇Ngo-Edomi.

Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti, uthi:

“Akusekho ukuhlakanipha eThemani na?

Amasu aphelile kwabaqondileyo,

ukuhlakanipha kwabo kunyamalele, na?

₈Balekani, nibuye,

nihlale ezigoxini nina bakhileyo eDedani,

ngokuba ngiyakwehlisela phezu kwakhe ingozi ka-Esawu

ngesikhathi sokumhambela kwami.

₉Uma bekufika kuwe abavuna izithelo zomvini,

abayikushiya umkhothozo;

namasela ebusuku

abeyakuchitha aze aneliswe.

₁₀Kepha mina ngiyakumhlubula u-Esawu,

ngambule izindawo zakhe ezichithekileyo, kanakucasha;

inzalo yakhe ichithekile,

nabafowabo, nabakhelwane bakhe,

yena abe engasekho.

₁₁Shiya izintandane zakho,

mina ngiyakuziphilisa,

abafelokazi bakho bethembe kimi.”

₁₄Ngizwile imibiko evela kuJehova;

kuthunyiwe isithunywa phakathi kwezizwe ngokuthi:

“Buthanani, nilihlasele,

nisukele ukulwa.”

₁₅“Ngokuba bheka,

ngiyakukwenza ube mncane phakathi kwezizwe,

udelelwe phakathi kwabantu.

₁₆Ukwesabeka kwakho kukudukisile,

ukuziqhenya kwenhliziyo yakho,

wena ohlezi emifantwini yamawa

ubambe isiqongo sentaba;

noma wakha isidleke sakho njengokhozi,

ngiyakukwehlisa khona,” usho uJehova.

₁₇“U-Edomi uyakuba yisimangaliso,

kumangale yilowo nalowo odlula kuye,

ancimfe ngenxa yezinhlupheko zakhe.

₁₈Njengasekuchithweni kweSodoma neGomora

nemizi yangakhona,” usho uJehova,

“akuyikuhlala muntu khona,

nendodana yomuntu ayiyikugogobala khona.

₁₉“Bheka,

njengengonyama ekhuphuka ezihlahleni zaseJordani,

iye endaweni eyinqaba,

ngiyakubazuma, ngibagijimise, basuke kuyo;

nobani okhethwayo ngiyakumbeka phezu kwabo,

ngokuba ngubani onjengami,

ngubani onginqumelayo,

ngumuphi umalusi oyakuma phambi kwami, na?”

₂₀Ngalokho yizwani isiluleko sikaJehova

asinike ngo-Edomi namacebo

awacebile ngabakhileyo eThemani ukuthi:

Abancinyane bomhlambi bayakudonswa,

basuswe, ikhaya labo limangale ngabo.

₂₁Ngomsindo wokuwa kwabo

umhlaba uyazamazama;

ngukukhala okumsindo wakho

uzwakele ngaseLwandle Olubomvu.

₂₂Bheka,

onjengokhozi uyakhuphuka, andize,

elulele amaphiko akhe kulo iBosira;

izinhliziyo zamaqhawe akwa-Edomi

ziyakuba njengenhliziyo yowesifazane onemihelo.
