IZililo 2:1-22
א [Aleph]
2 UJehova wembese indodakazi yeZiyoni ngeyezi lentukuthelo yakhe!
Ubutaklazele phansi ubuhle buka-Israyeli busuka ezulwini.+
Kazange asikhumbule isenabelo* senyawo zakhe+ ngosuku lolaka lwakhe.
ב [Beth]
2 UJehova utshabalalise zonke izindawo zokuhlala zikaJakhobe, kazange abe lozwelo.
Ngolaka lwakhe udilize wonke amadolobho endodakazi yakoJuda+ agonjolozelwe ngemiduli.
Uwisele phansi umbuso+ labakhokheli bawo,+ watshiya indodakazi yakoJuda iyangekile.
ג [Gimel]
3 Ngolaka lwakhe oluvuthayo uqede wonke amandla ako-Israyeli.
Ususe isandla sakhe sokudla ngesikhathi isitha sizohlasela.+
Njengomlilo olobisa yonke into,+ ulaka lwakhe luqhubeka luvutha kuJakhobe.
ד [Daleth]
4 Umtshoko wakhe usewukhokhile angathi yisitha, isandla sakhe sokudla sesilungele ukuhlasela;+Uqhubeke ebulala bonke esibathandayo.+
Ulaka lwakhe oluvutha njengomlilo+ uluthululele phezu kwetende lendodakazi yeZiyoni.+
ה [He]
5 UJehova usenjengesitha kithi,+Usemtshabalalisile u-Israyeli,
Wadiliza yonke imiphotshongo yakhe.
Ubhidlize zonke izinqaba zakhe,
Wenza ukuthi indodakazi yakoJuda ikhale kakhulu, isiqhinqe isililo.
ו [Waw]
6 Udilize ithempeli lakhe+ angathi ngokulidumba okusemasimini.
Usewamisile amadili akhe.*+
UJehova wenze ukuthi amadili kanye leSabatha kungasakhunjulwa eZiyoni.
Ngenxa yolaka lwakhe olwesabekayo, akaselandaba lokuthi umuntu uyinkosi loba ungumphristi.+
ז [Zayin]
7 UJehova uselikhalele i-alithare lakhe,Wafulathela indawo yakhe engcwele.+
Unikele imiduli yezinqaba zeZiyoni ezandleni zezitha.+
Ziyamemeza endlini kaJehova+ angathi lilanga ledili.*
ח [Heth]
8 UJehova usezimisele ukudiliza umduli wendodakazi yeZiyoni.+
Welule intambo yokulinganisa.+
Kayekelanga ukubhidliza ngesandla sakhe.
Wenza ukuthi imiduli lemibundu yokuvikela kulile.
Konke akusaqinanga.
ט [Teth]
9 Amagedi ayo asetshone phansi emhlabathini.+
Wephule imigoqo yayo wayitshabalalisa.
Inkosi yayo lezikhulu zayo zithunjiwe zahanjiswa ezizweni.+
Akulamuntu olandela umthetho futhi labaphrofethi bayo abasayitholi imibono evela kuJehova.+
י [Yod]
10 Abadala bendodakazi yeZiyoni bahlezi emhlabathini bethule zwi.+
Bazithela ngenhlabathi ekhanda begqoke izembatho zamasaka.+
Izintombi zeJerusalema zikhothamise amakhanda zakhangela phansi.
כ [Kaph]
11 Sengikhale amehlo aze avuvuka.+
Ngiyatsha ngaphakathi.
Inhliziyo yami ibuhlungu* ngenxa yokuthi indodakazi* yabantu bakithi+ isitshabalele,Izinsane labantwana bayaqaleka emagcekeni edolobho.+
ל [Lamed]
12 Baqhubeka bebuza onina besithi, “Kungaphi ukudla lewayini?”+
Bayaqaleka emagcekeni edolobho njengomuntu olimeleyo,Bafa besezandleni zabonina.
מ [Mem]
13 Yibuphi ubufakazi engingakunika bona?
Ngingakufananisa lani, awu ndodakazi yeJerusalema?
Ngingakuqathanisa lani ukuze ngikududuze, awu ndodakazi yeZiyoni?
Inxeba lakho likhulu njengolwandle.+ Manje ngubani ongakwelapha?+
נ [Nun]
14 Abaphrofethi bakho bakutshele imibono yamanga engancedi ngalutho.+
Abazange basiveze egcekeni isono sakho ukuze bakuncede ungathunjwa,+Kodwa baqhubeke bekutshela imibono engamanga bekwenza ulahleke.+
ס [Samekh]
15 Bonke abadlula ngomgwaqo bakuhleka baze batshaye izandla ndodakazi yeJerusalema.+
Nxa bekubona bayamangala batshaye umlozwi,+ benikina amakhanda besithi:
“Leli yilo yini idolobho okwakuthiwa lihle kakhulu futhi lenza abantu bonke emhlabeni bathokoze?”+
פ [Pe]
16 Zonke izitha zakho ziyakuhoza ngemilomo yazo.
Ziyakuchothoza zizondile zisithi: “Simtshabalalisile.+
Leli yilo ilanga ebesililindele!+ Selize lafika, salibona ngawethu!”+
ע [Ayin]
17 UJehova usekwenzile lokho ayekuhlosile,+ wenze lokho ayekutshilo,+Lokho akukhuluma kudala.+
Udilizile, kazange abe lozwelo.+
Uvumele isitha sakunqoba, wasenza sathokoza; wenze abakuzondayo baba lamandla.
צ [Tsade]
18 Ndodakazi yeZiyoni, abantu bakho bayakhala kuJehova.
Inyembezi kazigeleze njengomfula ubusuku lemini.
Khala ungaphumuli, ungawaphumuzi amehlo akho.
ק [Qoph]
19 Vuka ukhale ubusuku bonke!*
Thulula inhliziyo yakho njengamanzi phambi kukaJehova.
Phakamisela izandla zakho kuye uncengele impilo yabantwabakhoAbaqalekayo kuyo yonke imigwaqo ngenxa yendlala.+
ר [Resh]
20 Awu Jehova, khangela lowo omjezise kabuhlungu.
Kungani kumele abesifazana baqhubeke besidla abantwababo+ ababondlileyo?
Kungani kumele abaphristi labaphrofethi babulawe endaweni engcwele kaJehova?+
ש [Shin]
21 Izidumbu zamajaha lezamaxhegu zithe dandalazi emigwaqweni.+
Amajaha lezintombi babulewe ngenkemba.+
Ubabulele ngosuku lwentukuthelo yakho, wabaqeda ungelazwelo.+
ת [Taw]
22 Ubize izitha angathi ubizela abantu edilini,*+ zathutsha zivela kuzo zonke indawo.
Ngosuku lolaka lukaJehova kakho ophunyukileyo kumbe osindileyo,+Izitha zami zitshabalalise abantwabami engabazalayo ngabondla.+
