UMalaki Chapter1
1 Isihlabo selizwi likaYehova, esisingisele kuSirayeli, ngoMalaki.
2 Uthi uYehova, Ndinithandile; ke nina nithi, Usithande ngokuthini na? UEsawu asingumkhuluwa kaYakobi na? utsho uYehova; ukanti ndathanda ke uYakobi;
3 ndamthiya uEsawu; iintaba zakhe ndazenza kwaba senkangala, nelifa lakhe laba leleempungutye entlango.
4 Ekubeni ke uEdom esithi, Sivikivekile, siya kubuya siwakhe amanxuwa; utsho uYehova wemikhosi ukuthi, Baya kwakha bona, kodwa mna ndiya kugungxula; kothiwa, Bangumda wokungendawo, ngabantu ababhavumelayo uYehova kude kuse ephakadeni.
5 Amehlo enu aya kubona, nithi ke nina, Mkhulu uYehova phezu komda wakwaSirayeli.
6 Unyana uyambeka uyise, umkhonzi uyayihlonela inkosi yakhe; ukuba ndinguyihlo, kuphi na ke ukubekwa kwam? ukuba ndiyinkosi, kuphi na ukoyikwa kwam? utsho uYehova wemikhosi kuni, babingeleli, nina balidelileyo igama lam. Nibe ke nisithi, Silidele ngokuthini na igama lakho?
7 Nina nizisa esibingelelweni sam isonka esingcolileyo, nibe ke nisithi, Sikungcolise ngokuthini na? Ngokuthi oku kwenu, Isithebe sikaYehova sidelekile sona.
8 Ukuba nizisa into eyimfama ukuba ibingelelwe, akunto imbi oko? Ukuba nizisa into esisiqhwala nento efayo, akunto imbi oko? Khawuyisondeze loo nto kwinkosi yakho, ukuba yokholiswa na nguwe; yokunonelela na? utsho uYehova wemikhosi.
9 Kaloku ke, khanimbongoze uThixo, ukuba asibabale; kuvele esandleni senu oku; womnonelela ke umntu ngenxa yenu na? utsho uYehova wemikhosi.
10 Akwaba bekukho umntu kuni ozivalileyo iingcango, anasibanekela ilize isibingelelo sam! Andininanze nganto, utsho uYehova wemikhosi, andikholiswa nangumnikelo ophuma esandleni senu.
11 Ngokuba kuthabathela ekuphumeni kwelanga, kude kuse ekutshoneni kwalo, likhulu igama lam phakathi kweentlanga; nasezindaweni zonke kuqhunyiselwa, kunikelwe igama lam umnikelo ohlambulukileyo; ngokuba likhulu igama lam phakathi kweentlanga; utsho uYehova wemikhosi.
12 Ke nina niyalihlambela ngokuthi oku kwenu, Isithebe sikaYehova singcolile, neziveliso zaso, ukutya kwaso kudelekile.
13 Nabuya nathi ke, Yabonani, yindinisa yani na le! nasivuthela; utsho uYehova wemikhosi; nazisa izinto eziphangiweyo, neziziqhwala, nezifayo; nenjenje ukuzisa umnikelo ke; ndikholiswe na ke zezo zinto ziphuma esandleni senu? utsho uYehova.
14 Uqalekisiwe ke oqhathaniselayo, ukanti kukho emhlambini wakhe iduna; nobhambathisa, abingelele eNkosini into eyonakeleyo; ngokuba ndingukumkani omkhulu, utsho uYehova wemikhosi, negama lam liyoyikeka phakathi kweentlanga.
