UJobe 33

¹“Khathesi-ke, Jobe, lalela amazwi ami;

²Sengizawuvula umlomo wami;

³Amazwi ami aphuma enhliziyweni eqotho;

⁴UMoya kaNkulunkulu wangenza;

⁵Ngiphendula nxa usenelisa;

⁶Lami nginjengawe phambi kukaNkulunkulu;

⁷Ukungesaba kwakho makungakwethusi,

⁸Kodwa ukhulumile ngisizwa,

⁹‘Ngimsulwa njalo kangilasono;

¹⁰Ikanti uNkulunkulu ubone okusolekayo kimi;

¹¹Uyazikhina inyawo zami ngezibopho;

¹²Kodwa ngiyakutshela ukuthi lapha uyalahleka,

¹³Kungani umsola

¹⁴Ngempela uNkulunkulu uyakhuluma,

¹⁵Kungaba ngephupho, kube ngombono ebusuku

¹⁶angakhuluma ezindlebeni zabo,

¹⁷ukuze aguqule umuntu ekwenzeni okubi

¹⁸ukulondoloza umphefumulo wakhe ungayi egodini,

¹⁹Loba umuntu angajeziswa ngobuhlungu esembhedeni wakhe,

²⁰aze ezwe umzimba wakhe usunengwa yikudla

²¹Inyama yakhe iyacikizeka iphele,

²²Umoya wakhe uyasondela egodini,

²³Kodwa nxa kulengilosi eceleni kwakhe,

²⁴ukuba lomusa kuye isithi,

²⁵bese inyama yakhe ivuselelwa njengeyomntwana;

²⁶Uyakhuleka kuNkulunkulu amthokozele,

²⁷Kuthi-ke abesebuya ebantwini athi,

²⁸Wawuhlenga umphefumulo wami ukuze ungayi egodini,

²⁹UNkulunkulu uyazenza zonke lezizinto emuntwini

³⁰ukubuyisa umphefumulo wakhe ungayi egodini,

³¹Nanzelela, Jobe, ulalele kimi;

³²Nxa ulolutho lokutsho, ngiphendula;

³³Kodwa nxa lungekho lalela kimi;
