1Isiprofetho ngeNineve, incwadi yombono kaNahume wase-Elikoshi.

2UJehova unguNkulunkulu oshisekelayo nophindiselayo; uJehova uyaphindisela, ugcwele ukufutheka; uJehova uphindisela kwabamelene naye, ugcinela izitha zakhe intukuthelo.

3UJehova wephuza ukuthukuthela, mkhulu ngamandla, akenzi onecala abe msulwa; uJehova unendlela yakhe esivunguvungwini nasesiphephweni, namafu ayibhuqu lezinyawo zakhe.

4Uyakhuza ulwandle, alomise, ashise nemifula yonke; iBashani liyawuma kanye neKarmeli, nezimbali zaseLebanoni ziyabuna.

5Izintaba ziyathuthumela phambi kwakhe, amagquma ayancibilika; umhlaba uyaphakama ebusweni bakhe, yebo, nakho konke okuhlala kuwo.

6Ngubani ongema ebusweni bentukuthelo yakhe na? Ngubani ongema ekufuthekeni kolaka lwakhe na? Ukufutheka kwakhe kuthululiwe njengomlilo, namadwala ayaqhekezeka phambi kwakhe.

7UJehova muhle, uyinqaba ngosuku lwenhlupheko, uyabazi abaphephela kuye.

8Kepha ngesikhukhula esiphuphumayo uyakuqeda indawo yakhona, axoshele izitha zakhe ebumnyameni.

9Enikucebayo ngoJehova uyakuqeda yena; ukuhlupheka akuyikuvela ngokwesibili.

10Lapho bethandela njengameva, benjengabaminzileyo ophuzweni lwabo, bayakuqedwa nokuqedwa njengamabibi omileyo.

11Kuphume kuwe owamcebela uJehova okubi, wanika isiluleko esibi.

12Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Noma benamandla, futhi bebaningi, nokho bayakuqedwa, banyamalale; noma ngikuhluphile, angisayikukuhlupha.

13Sengiyakulaphula ijoka eliphezu kwakho, ngigqabule izibopho zakho.”

14Kepha uJehova uyalezile ngawe ukuthi akusayikuhlwanyelwa okwegama lakho; endlini yawonkulunkulu bakho ngiyakunquma izithombe ezibaziweyo nezibunjiweyo; ngiyakulungisa ithuna lakho, ngokuba awuyinto yalutho.

15Bheka ezintabeni izinyawo zoletha izindaba ezinhle, omemezela ukuthula. Gubha imikhosi yakho, Juda, ugcwalise izithembiso zakho, ngokuba omubi akasayikudabula kuwe; unqunyiwe ngokupheleleyo.
