UHabhakuki 1
1 Isihlabo awasibonayo uHabhakuki umprofeti.2 Kunini na, Yehova, ndizibika, ungeva; ndikhala kuwe ndisithi, Ugonyamelo, ungasindisi?3 Yini na ukuba undikhangelise ubutshinga, ukondele okubi? Yimbuqo nogonyamelo phambi kwam; kukho ubambano, kuphakame ingxabano.4 Ngenxa yoko uyekelelwe umyalelo, ukuze kungaveli naphakade okusesikweni; kuba abangendawo bayawarhawula amalungisa; ngenxa yoko okusesikweni kuphuma kujikekile.
5 Khangelani phakathi kweentlanga, nondele, ningakhulumi nokukhuluma; ngokuba ndiya kusebenza umsebenzi ngemihla yenu, eningayi kukholwa nguwo, nokuba niyawubaliselwa.6 Kuba, yabonani, ndixhoxha amaKaledi, uhlanga olulugcalagcala, oluyintshakavula; oluhamba nobubanzi behlabathi, ukuze luhluthe amakhaya angewalo.7 Luyadengisa, luyoyikeka; kuphuma kwakulo okusesikweni kwalo, nokuphakama kwalo.8 Anamendu ngaphezu kwezingwe amahashe alo, aqubula ngaphezu kweengcuka zangokuhlwa. Bayaphalisa abamahashe balo; abamahashe balo beza bevela kude, bee tshwebelele njengexhalanga elikhawulezayo ukuza kudla.9 Bonke bephela beza ngokugonyamela; ubuso babo buzamela phambili; bahlanganisa abathinjwa njengentlabathi.10 Bona bacukuceza ookumkani, nezidwangube ziyintlekisa kubo; bona bayazihleka iinqaba zonke; bafumba uthuli, bazithi hlasi.11 Baya kwandula bakhukule ngokomoya, badlule, bazeke ityala; la mandla abe nguthixo wabo.
12 Wena akunguye na owasusela kwakumandulo, Yehova, Thixo wam, ungoyiNgcwele wam? Asiyi kufa. Yehova, ubamisele ukuba bagwebe; Liwa, ubaseke ukuba bohlwaye.13 Wena ungomehlo ahlambulukileyo, ukuba angayikhangeli into embi, ukuba ungabi nakukondela okubi; ubondele ngani na ke abanginizi, ukuba uthi cwaka njeongendawo emginya olilungisa kunaye?14 Ulwenze ke uluntu lwanjengeentlanzi zaselwandle, njengezinambuzane ezingenamlawuli.15 Bonke bephela babanyusa ngeqherhu labo; babaqweqwedisa ngomnatha wabo, babahlanganise ngomnathakazi wabo; ngenxa yoko bayavuya, bagcobe.16 Ngenxa yoko babingelela kumnatha wabo, baqhumisele kumnathakazi wabo; kuba sityebe ngezo zinto isahlulo sabo, nokudla kwabo kwaba ngamanqatha ngazo.17 Baya kuwukhuphela na ngenxa yoko umnatha wabo, bahlale bebulala iintlanga, bangacongi na?
