Amacebo Abantu LakaNkulunkulu
1 Maye kulabo abaceba ububi,
kulabo abaceba ukwenza okubi emibhedeni yabo!
Ekudabukeni kokusa bayakwenza
ngoba kusemandleni abo ukukwenza.
2 Bahawukela amasimu bawathumbe,
kanye lezindlu, bazithathe.
Badlelezela umuntu ngomuzi wakhe,
lomuntu wakibo ngelifa lakhe.

3 Ngakho uThixo uthi:

“Ngiceba ukwenza umonakalo kulababantu,
elingeke liziphephise kuwo.
Kalisayikuhamba ngokuziqhenya,
ngoba kuzakuba yisikhathi sencithakalo.
4 Ngalolosuku abantu bazalihleka;
bazaliklolodela ngale ingoma yokulila bathi:
‘Thina sichithwe okupheleleyo;
ilifa labantu bami labiwe.
Uyangithathela!
Amasimu ethu uwanika abathengisi.’ ”
 
5 Ngakho-ke kawuzukuba laye ebandleni likaThixo
ozalabela ilizwe ngenkatho.
Abaphrofethi Bamanga
6 Abaphrofethi babo bathi, “Lingaphrofethi.
Lingaphrofethi ngalezizinto;
ihlazo kaliyikusehlela.”
7 Wena ndlu kaJakhobe, kufanele yini ukuba kuthiwe,
“UMoya kaThixo uzondile na?
Uyazenza izinto ezinje na?”
 
“Amazwi ami kawenzi okulungileyo
kuye ozindlela zakhe ziqondile na?
8 Okwamanje abantu bami sebehlamuke
njengesitha.
Lihlubula ingubo eligugu
kulabo abedlulayo linganakile,
njengabantu abavela empini.
9 Abesifazane babantu bami liyabaxotsha
emizini yabo emihle.
Lisusa isibusiso sami
kokuphela ebantwaneni babo.
10 Sukani lihambe!
Ngoba le akusindawo yenu yokuphumula,
ngoba ingcolile,
ichithekile, okungeke kulungiswe.
11 Nxa umqambi wamanga lomkhohlisi efika athi,
‘Ngizaliphrofethela iwayini elinengi lotshwala,’
uyabe engumphrofethi walababantu nje kuphela!”
Isithembiso Sokukhululwa
12 “Impela ngizalibutha lonke, wena Jakhobe;
impela ngizabaqoqela ndawonye abako-Israyeli abasalayo.
Ngizabaqoqela ndawonye njengezimvu esibayeni,
njengomhlambi wezimvu emadlelweni awo;
indawo ibe lokuphithizela kwabantu.
13 Lowo ozavula indlela uzahamba phambi kwabo;
bazafohla isango baphume.
Inkosi yabo izadlulela phambi kwabo,
uThixo abe phambi kwabo.”
