Jobe 29:1-25
29 Jobe wachubeka wakhuluma watsi:
2 “Kube mane ngisaphila esikhatsini lesendlulile,Ngesikhatsi Nkulunkulu asengivikele,
3 Ngesikhatsi sibane sakhe sisangikhanyisela enhloko,Futsi nangihamba ebumnyameni bengikhanyiselwa nguye,+
4 Ngesikhatsi ngisemusha* futsi tintfo tisangihambela kahle,Ngesikhatsi nginebuhlobo lobuhle naNkulunkulu,+
5 Ngesikhatsi Somandla asenami,Futsi nebantfwana bami basaphila,*
6 Ngesikhatsi tinyawo tami tisahamba endzaweni legcwele libhotela,Nemadvwala asangitfululela emafutsa emncumo lamanyenti.+
7 Ngesikhatsi ngisavame kuya esangweni lelidolobha+Futsi ngihlale esigcawini selidolobha,+
8 Emajaha bekatsi nakangibona akhweshele eceleni,*Ngisho nemakhehla abesukuma futsi achubeke emile.+
9 Tindvuna betibindza tingakhulumi;Betibeka tandla emlonyeni.
10 Emadvodza lahlonishwako abengakhulumi lutfo;Futsi kute ngisho nalinye ligama lebeliphuma emilonyeni yawo.
11 Bonkhe lebebangivile bebakhuluma kahle ngami,Nalabo lebebangibona bebangikhulumela kahle.
12 Ngobe bengimsita lohluphekile lokhalela lusito,+Ngisita nentsandzane kanye nanobe ngubani lodzinga kusitwa.+
13 Umuntfu lohluphekile abengikhulumela kahle+Futsi bafelokati bebajabula nangibasita.+
14 Bengihlale ngenta tintfo letilungile;*Futsi tonkhe tincumo tami bengitenta ngendlela lelungile.*
15 Bengingemehlo alabangaboniFutsi ngitinyawo kulabangakhoni kuhamba.
16 Bengingubabe kulabeswele;+Bengisita bantfu lengingabati kute behlulelwe ngekulunga.+
17 Bengiyephula imihlatsi yemuntfu lowenta lokubi+Ngikhulule labo lababanjwe ngematinyo akhe.
18 Bengivame kutsi: ‘Ngitawufela ekhaya lami,*+Nemalanga ami atawuba manyenti ngangesihlabatsi saselwandle.
19 Ngitawufana nesihlahla lesinetimphandze letifika emantini,Futsi lesinemagala lalala ematolo busuku bonkhe.
20 Inkhatimulo yami ihlale ivuseleleka,Futsi ngitawuhlala ngidubula ngebutjoki lobusesandleni sami.’
21 Bantfu bebakulangatelela kungilalela,Bathule balindzele kuva seluleko sami.+
22 Bengitsi nasengikhulumile, kube bete labangakusho,Emavi lebengiwasho bekamnandzi* etindlebeni tabo.
23 Bebangilindzela njengalapho bantfu balindzele imvula;Emavi lebengiwakhuluma bebawanatsa njengemvula yasentfwasahlobo.+
24 Nangimoyitela nabo, bebangakukholwa loko;Injabulo lebeyisebusweni bami beyibakhutsata.*
25 Bengibacondzisa njengobe bengingumholi wabo,Futsi bengiphila njengenkhosi lekanye nemabutfo ayo,+Nginjengemuntfu lodvudvuta labalilako.+
