IHubo 60:1-12
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela; lihamba lomculo othi “Iluba Lokukhumbuza.” Imikhithamu.* Lihubo likaDavida elokufundisa. Walihlabela aze alwe le-Aramu-naharayimi le-Aramu-zobha, lapho uJowabi athi esephenduka wabulala ama-Edomi angu-12 000 esigodini sesawudo.+
60 Awu Nkulunkulu, usilahlile wasichithachitha.+
Ubusizondele kodwa khathesi sicela usamukele!
2 Wenze umhlaba wazamazama wadabuka phakathi.
Vala imikenke yawo ngoba usudilika.
3 Wehlisele abantu bakho inhlupho.
Wasinathisa iwayini elisenza sidiyazele.+
4 Nika abantu abakwesabayo uphawu,Ukuze bavike imitshoko babaleke. (Selah)
5 Siphendule+ futhi usisindise ngesandla sakho sokudla,Ukuze abantu bakho obathandayo bakhululwe.
6 UNkulunkulu ongcwele ukhulumile* wathi:
“Ngizathokoza futhi ngizanika abantu bami iShekhemu ibe lilifa labo,+Ngizalinganisa isigodi seSukhothi+ ngisinike abantu bami.
7 IGiliyadi ngeyami njengoba nje loManase+ engowami,U-Efrayimi yingwane* yami yokuvikela ikhanda,UJuda yintonga yami yobukhosi,+
8 UMowabi yinditshi yami yokugezela.+
Ngizaphosela amanyathela ami phezu kuka-Edomi.+
Ngizamemeza ngentokozo ngoba ngizayinqoba iFilisti.”+
9 Ngubani ozangisa edolobheni elivinjezelweyo?
Ngubani ozangikhokhela aze ayengifikisa ko-Edomi?+
10 Nguwe Nkulunkulu kodwa wena usilahlile,Awusawakhokheli amabutho ethu.+
11 Sincedise usikhiphe ebunzimeniNgoba insindiso evela ebantwini ayincedi.+
12 UNkulunkulu uzasinika amandla,+Uzazigxobagxoba izitha zethu.+
