1Isigidimi selizwi likaYehova kuSirayeli ngoMalaki.

2Ndinithandile, utsho uYehova. Kodwa uthi: Usithande njani? uEsawu ebengengomkhuluwa kaYakobi na? utsho uYehova, kodwa ndathanda uYakobi;

3Ndamthiya uEsawu, Ndazitshabalalisa iintaba zakhe, Nelifa lakhe laba leleempungutye entlango.

4Ngoxa uEdom wathi: “Sizizisweli, kodwa siya kubuya siwakhe amanxuwa; utsho uYehova wemikhosi ukuthi, Bona baya kwakha, kodwa mna ndiya kugungxula; yaye baya kuzibiza ngokuba: “Isiphelo sobungendawo yaye: Ngabantu abacaphukeleyo uYehova ngonaphakade.

5Amehlo enu aya kukubona oko, nithi, Mkhulu uYehova emdeni wakwaSirayeli;

6Unyana uyambeka uyise, nomkhonzi uyayihlonela inkosi yakhe; ukuba ndinguyihlo, kuphi na ukubekwa kwam? ukuba ndingukumkani, kuphi na ukoyikwa kwam? Utsho uYehova wemikhosi kuni, nina babingeleli, nina balinyelisa igama lam; Nithi ke, Silihlambele ngantoni na igama lakho?

7Nizisa esibingelelweni sam isonka esiyinqambi; nithi, Sikungcolise ngantoni na? Kuba uthi: Isithebe sikaYehova yinto edelekileyo.

8Ukuba nizisa umntu oyimfama njengombingelelo, akunto imbi oko? Ukuba nibingelela ngesiqhwala nangesifayo, akunto imbi oko? Linike kaloku irhuluneli yenu; Ngaba uya kuvuya nawe, okanye athathe ubuntu bakho? utsho uYehova wemikhosi.

9Kaloku ke khanimbongoze uThixo, ukuba abe nenceba kuthi; utsho uYehova wemikhosi.

10Ngubani na kuni oya kuzitshixa iingcango ngelize? musani ukufaka umlilo kwisibingelelo sam. Aninanzeleli kuni, utsho uYehova wemikhosi; andiyi kuyamkela esandleni senu imibingelelo;

11Kuba kuthabathela ekuphumeni kwelanga kuse ekutshoneni kwalo, likhulu igama lam phakathi kweentlanga; yaye kuyo yonke indawo kuya kwenziwa isiqhumiso egameni lam nombingelelo osulungekileyo, ngenxa yokuba igama lam liya kuba likhulu phakathi kweentlanga,” utsho uYehova wemikhosi.

12Ke nina nenze inqambi ngokuthi, Isithebe sikaYehova singcolile; neziqhamo zayo, ewe, ukudla kwayo kulisikizi.

13Kananjalo nathi, Yabona, kukudinwa okunjani na! ke nina niya kuyicima, utsho uYehova wemikhosi; Bazisa abadumbileyo, nabaziziqhwala, nabafayo; ngoko xa ubingelela; Ndiyithathe kuwe? utsho uYehova.

14Uqalekisiwe lowo umlukuhlisi, xa kukho iduna emhlambini wakhe, nokuba enze isibhambathiso, asondeza kuYehova into eyonakeleyo; ngokuba ndinguKumkani omkhulu, utsho uYehova wemikhosi, negama lam liyoyikeka phakathi kweentlanga.
