Jobe 37:1-24
37 “Nyalo inhlitiyo yami ishayela etuluFutsi iyagcumagcuma endzaweni yayo.
2 Lalelisisa livi lakhe lelibhodlakoNekudvuma lokuphuma emlonyeni wakhe.
3 Libhodla livakale ngephansi kwemazuluFutsi utfumela umbane+ wakhe emikhawulweni yemhlaba.
4 Bese kuvakala umsindvo lomkhulu;Advume ngelivi lakhe lebukhosi,+Futsi akawugodli umbane naselivakele livi lakhe.
5 Liphimbo laNkulunkulu+ lidvuma ngendlela lemangalisako;Wenta tintfo letinkhulu lesingeke sikhone kuticondza.+
6 Ngoba ukhuluma nelichwa atsi: ‘Yehlela emhlabeni,’+Futsi atjele imvula lenkhulu atsi: ‘Tfululeka kakhulu.’+
7 Nkulunkulu umisa yonkhe imisebenti yebantfu*Kuze bonkhe batoyati imisebenti yaKhe.
8 Tilwane tesiganga tingena emigodzini yatoFutsi tihlale emihumeni yato.
9 Sivunguvungu sihhusha siphume emakamelweni aso,+Nemakhata achamuke emimoyeni yasenyakatfo.+
10 Ngekuphefumula kwaNkulunkulu, lichwa liyakheka,+Nemanti lamanyenti ayacina abe litje.+
11 Wetfwesa emafu ngemswakama;Asakate imibane+ emafini;
12 Itungeleta ngekushesha iye lapho ayitfumela khona;Yenta nobe yini layiyala+ kutsi iyente emhlabeni.*
13 Usebentisa emafu kute ajezise,+ kute anise imvula emhlabeni,Nobe kuze akhombise lutsandvo lolucotfo.+
14 Lalela la Jobe;Mani futsi ucabangisise ngemisebenti lemangalisako yaNkulunkulu.+
15 Uyati yini kutsi Nkulunkulu uwalawula* njani emafuNekutsi uwenta njani umbane umanyate emafini akhe?
16 Uyayati yini indlela emafu lalenga ngayo emoyeni?+
Lena yimisebenti lemangalisako yaLoyo lowati konkhe.+
17 Kungani timphahla takho tishisaUbe umhlaba uchubeka umile nanobe kunemoya lochamuka eningizimu?+
18 Ungasendlala yini sibhakabhaka njengaye+Sicine sifanane nesibuko lesakhiwe ngensimbi?
19 Sitjele loko lokufanele sikusho kuye;Tsine angeke sikhone kuphendvula ngobe sisebumnyameni.
20 Ngingamtjela yini Nkulunkulu kutsi ngifuna kukhuluma naye?
Nobe ukhona yini loshito lokutsite lokufanele atjelwe kona?+
21 Abakuboni ngisho nekukhanya,*Nanobe kukhanya esibhakabhakeni,Kuze kube ngulapho umoya ususa emafu.
22 Enyakatfo kuchamuka bukhatikhati beligolide;Bukhosi baNkulunkulu+ buyesabeka.
23 Angeke size sikwati kumcondza Somandla;+Unemandla lamakhulu,+Uhlala enta tintfo ngekulunga,+ futsi kulunga kwakhe kukhulu kakhulu.+
24 Ngako-ke bantfu kufanele bamesabe.+
Ngobe akabatsandzi labo labacabanga kutsi bahlakaniphile.”*+
