Nkulunkulu uchaza ingwenya (1-34)
41 “Ungayibamba yini ingwenya*+ ngelidvwebaNobe ubophe lulwimi lwayo ngentsambo?
2 Ungayifaka yini intsambo* etimphumulweni tayoNobe ubhobose imihlatsi yayo ngelihhuka?*
3 Itawutincengela yini kuwe,Nobe ikhulume emavi lanemusa?
4 Itawenta sivumelwane yini nawe,Kute uyente sigcili sakho konkhe kuphila kwayo?
5 Utawudlala nayo yini njengobe udlala nenyoniNobe utayibopha yini kute emantfombatanyana akho adlale ngayo?
6 Batsengisi batawuphikisana yini ngekutsi batayitsengisa ngamalini?
Batawehlukaniselana yona yini?
7 Sikhumba sayo utasigcwalisa ngemicibisholo yetinhlanti letinkhulu+ yiniNobe inhloko yayo uyigcwalise ngetikhali tekudvweba?
8 Beka sandla sakho kuyo;Utakukhumbula kulwa kwayo futsi angeke uphindze ukwente loko!
9 Nobe ngumaphi ematsemba ekuyincoba alite.
Ngekuyibuka nje, utawuvele uphelelwe ngemandla.*
10 Kute nalocabanga kuyicala.
Ngako-ke ngubani longamelana nami?+
11 Ngubani longinike lokutsite kucala lokufanele ngimbhadale?+
Konkhe lokungephansi kwemazulu ngekwami.+
12 Angeke ngihlale ngingakhulumi ngemilente yayo,Ngebukhulu bayo nangendlela umtimba wayo lowakheke kahle ngayo.
13 Ngubani loyikhumule sembatfo sayo sangetulu?
Ngubani longangena emihlatsini yayo levulekile?
14 Ngubani longayivulisa umlomo wayo* ngenkhani?
Onkhe ematinyo ayo ayesabeka.
15 Umhlane wayo unemigca yemahawu*Lahlanganiswe ndzawonye.
16 Ngulelo nalelo lisondzelene kakhulu nalelinyeKute kungangeni umoya emkhatsini wawo.
17 Anamatselene;Ahlangene futsi angeke ehlukaniseke.
18 Itsi nayitsimula kuphume kukhanya,Futsi emehlo ayo afanana nemisebe yentsatsakusa.
19 Emlonyeni wayo kuphuma imibane;Kuphume netinhlase temlilo.
20 Emakhaleni ayo kuphuma intfutfu,Njengemlilo lobaswe ngetjani.
21 Itsi nayiphefumula kuvutse emalahle,Futsi kuphume lilangabi emlonyeni wayo.
22 Inemandla lamakhulu entsanyeni,Futsi bonkhe labayibonako bafikelwa kwesaba lokukhulu.
23 Emafindvofindvo enyama yayo ahlangene;Acinile, afanana nensimbi lengeke isuswe.
24 Inhlitiyo yayo icine njengelitje,Icine njengelitje lekusila.
25 Nayiphakama, ngisho nalabanemandla bayesaba;Nayihamba emantini ibangela kutsi kube nekudideka.
26 Kute inkemba leyigwazako letawuphumelela;Ngisho nesikhali, umcibisholo nobe butjoki ngeke kuphumelele.+
27 Kuyo insimbi ifanana nelutsi lwetjani,Litfusi lifanane nelukhuni lolubolile.
28 Butjoki abuyenti ibaleke;Ematje esidubulelo afanana neluhlanga kuyo.
29 Kuyo umzaca ufanana neluhlanga,Futsi iyahleka nakukhehleta sikhali lesifishane.
30 Lingephansi layo lifanana netincetu letikhaliphile talokubunjiwe;Nayihamba eludzakeni ishiya imidvwebo kube shengatsi bekuhamba sihliphi sekubhula.+
31 Yenta emanti lasekujuleni abile njengalasebhodweni;Inyakatisa lwandle kube shengatsi libhodo lemafutsa ekugcobisa.
32 Lapho ihambe khona ishiya kunemagwebu.
Ungaze ucabange kutsi kujula kunetinwele letimhlophe.
33 Kute lokufanana nayo emhlabeni,Yadalwa ngendlela yekutsi ingesabi lutfo.
34 Itibuka kabi tonkhe tilwane letitiphakamisako.
Iyinkhosi kuto tonkhe tilwane tesiganga letinemandla.”
