Labo bantu bahlezi ngokuthula nathi ; ngalokho mabahlale ezweni , balihambe, ngokuba bheka , izwe libanzi inxa zombili phambi kwabo ; asizithathele amadodakazi abo abe ngomkethu, sibaphe amadodakazi ethu.

Kuphela ngalokho bayasivumela laba bantu ukuhlala nathi , sibe yisizwe sinye, ukuthi bonke abesilisa bakithi basokwe, njengalokho bona besokiwe.

UMose wayesebuyela kuJehova, wathi: Nkosi, wenzeleni okubi kulaba bantu na? Ungithumeleni mina na?

Selokhu ngafika kuFaro ukukhuluma egameni lakho , ubaphathe kabi laba bantu, nawe awubophulanga nakanci abantu bakho.

Izinsuku eziyisikhombisa niyakudla isinkwa esingenamvubelo ; yebo, ngosuku lokuqala noyikhipha imvubelo ezindlini zenu, ngokuba bonke abadla okuvutshelweyo, kusukela osukwini lokuqa la kuze kufike usuku lwesikhombisa, labo bantu bayakunqunywa kwa-Israyeli.

UMose wayesekhala kuJehova , ethi: Ngizakwenzani kulaba bantu na ? Sekukancane ukuba bangikhande ngamatshe.

Hawu, sizwe esonayo , bantu abasindwe ngububi , nzalo yababi , bantwana abonakeleyo! Bamshiyile uJehova, bamdelele oNgcwele ka-Israyeli, babuyele emuva.

Yizwani izwi likaJehov a nina babusi baseSodoma , nibeke indlebe ekufundiseni kukaNkulunkulu wethu nina bantu baseGomora.

Umukhwe kaMose esebona konke abenzela khona abantu , wathi: Kuyini lokhu obenzela khona bantu na ? Uhlalelani wedwa , abantu bonke bemi ngakuwe kusukela ekuseni kuze kuhlwe na?

Uyakudinwa nokudinwa , wena nalaba bantu abanawe , ngokuba lokhu kuyakusinda; awunakukwenza uwedwa.

Uma wenza lokhu, noNkulunkulu ekuyala kanje, uzakuba namandla okuma, nabo bonke laba bantu bayakubuyela ezindaweni zabo benokuthula.

UJehova wathi kuMose : Ngibabonile laba bantu ; bheka, bangabantu abantamo ilukhuni.

UMose wathi ku -Aroni: Benzeni kuwe laba bantu ukuba ubehlisele isono esingaka na?

UMose wabuyela kuJehova , wathi: Hawu, laba bantu benzile isono esikhulu, bazenzele onkulunkulu ngegolide.

UMose wathi kuJehova : Bheka, uthi kimi : Khuphula laba bantu , kepha awungazisanga yena oyakumthuma nami . Nokho ushilo ukuthi : Ngiyakwazi ngegama, ufumene umusa emehlweni ami.

Abantu bami -ke izingane ziyabacindezela , nabesifazane bayababusa . O bantu bami, abaniholayo bayanidukisa; bachitha indlela yemikhondo yakho.

UMose wathi kuJehova : Uyiphatheleni kabi inceku yakho na ? Angifumananga ngani umusa emehlweni akho ukuba ubeke umthwalo wabo bonke laba bantu phezu kwami na?

Ngakhulelwa bonke laba bantu yini , ngabazala, ukuze uthi kimi : Bagone ngasesifubeni sakho njengomondli egona umntwana oncelayo , ubayise ezweni owalifungela oyise, na?

Ngingathathaphi inyama ukubanika bonke laba bantu na? Ngokuba bakhala kimi, bathi: Siphe inyama ukuba sidle.

Anginakuthwala bonke laba bantu ngedwa, ngokuba kuyangisinda.

Kepha amadoda ayenyuke naye athi: Asinakwenyuka, sihlasele labo bantu, ngokuba banamandla kunathi.

UJehova wayesekhuluma kuMose , wathi: Koze kube nini laba bantu bengidelela na ? Koze kube nini bengakholwa yimi ngezibonakaliso z onke engizenzile phakathi kwabo na?

UMose wathi kuJehova : Khona abaseGibithe bayakukuzwa , ngokuba wakhuphula laba bantu ngamandla akho phakathi kwabo,

babatshele abakhe kuleli zwe ; bezwile ukuthi wena Jehova uphakathi kwalaba bantu, babonane nawe Jehova ubuso nobuso ; ifu lakho limi phezu kwabo, wena uhamba phambi kwabo usensikeni yefu emini nasensikeni yomlilo ebusuku.

Manje-ke uma ubulala laba bantu njengomuntu munye, izizwe ezizwe udumo lwakho ziyakukhuluma zithi:

Ake uthethelele ububi balaba bantu ngokobukhulu bomusa wakho , njengalokho uyekele laba bantu kusukela eGibithe kuze kube manje.

lokhu bonke labo bantu ababone inkazimulo yami nezibonakaliso zami engazenza eGibithe nasehlane bengilingile kayishumi, abalalela izwi lami,

Futhi awusingenisanga ezweni elivame ubisi nezinyosi , awusinikanga ifa lamasimu nelezivini ; uyakubhoboza amehlo ala ba bantu na ? Asiyikukhuphuka.

Wayesekhuluma kuyo inhlangano , wathi: Ake nisuke ematendeni alaba bantu ababi, ningathinti lutho olwabo, funa niqedwe ngezono zabo zonke.

Uma laba bantu befa ngokufa kwabantu bonke, noma behlelwa ngokwehlela abantu bonke, uJehova uyakube kangithumanga.

Kepha uma uJehova edala into entsha , umhlaba uvule umlomo wawo , ubagwinye kanye nakho konke okwabo , bashone besezwa endaweni yabafileyo, niyakuqonda ukuthi laba bantu bamdelele uJehova.

U-Israyeli wenza isithembiso kuJehova, wathi: Uma unikela nokunikela laba bantu esandleni sami, ngiyakuchitha impela imizi yabo.

Maye kuwena Mowabi ! Niphelile, nina bantu bakaKemoshi ; unikele amadodana akhe abe ngababaleki , namadodakazi akhe athunjwe kuSihoni inkosi yama-Amori.

ngalokho ake uze manje , ungiqalekisele laba bantu, ngokuba bayangahlula; mhlawumbe ngingaze ngibe namandla ukuba sibanqobe , ngibaxoshe ezweni, ngokuba ngiyazi ukuthi ombusisayo ubusisiwe, nomqalekisayo uqalekisiwe.

ngokuba ngiyakukunika udumo olukhulu , nakho konke ongitshela khona ngiyakukwenza; ake uze ngalokho manje, ungiqalekisele laba bantu.

Bheka manje , ngibuyela kubantu bakithi ; woza ngikumemezelele ukuthi laba bantu bayakwenzani kubantu bakini ngezinsuku ezizayo.

Impela kulaba bantu abaphuma eGibithe , kusukela kwabaneminyaka engamashumi amabili kuya phezulu , akayikubona noyedwa izwe engalifungela u -Abrahama, no-Isaka, noJakobe, ngokuba abangilandelanga ngokuphelelyo,

Ngokuba uma nibuyela emuva ekumlandeleni, uyakubuye abashiye ehlane, nize nibhubhise laba bantu.

Impela akuyikubona noyedwa walaba bantu balesi sizukulwane esibi izwe elihle engafunga ukubanika lona oyihlo,

Kepha yala uJoshuwa, umqunge isibindi , umqinise, ngokuba uyakuwela phambi kwalaba bantu, abenze ukuba balidle izwe oyakulibona.

UJehova wawezwa amazwi enu ekukhulumeni kwenu kimi ; uJehova wayesethi kimi: Ngiwezwile amazwi alaba bantu abawakhulume kuwe; basho kahle konke abakukhulumile.

UJehova wabuye wakhuluma kimi , wathi: Ngibabonile laba bantu; bheka, bangabantu abantamo ilukhuni;

Khumbula izinceku zakho o -Abrahama, no-Isaka, noJakobe, ungabheki inkani yalaba bantu, nabubi babo, nasono sabo,

Kodwa emizini yalaba bantu uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akunika bona babe yifa lakho awuyikusindisa lutho oluphefumulayo,

UMose wambiza uJoshuwa , wathi kuye emehlweni abantu bonke bakwa - Israyeli: Qina, ume isibindi, ngokuba uyakuhamba nalaba bantu, uye ezweni uJehova afunga koyise ukubanika lona ; wena uyakwenza ukuba balidle ifa lalo.

UJehova nimvuza kanjalo nina bantu abayiziwula nabangahlakaniphile na? Akasiye uyihlo owakudala na? Wakwenza, wakubumba.

UMose inceku yami ufile ; ngalokho suka uwele leli Jordani , wena nalaba bantu bonke, niye ezweni engibanika lona abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Qina, ume isibindi , ngokuba uyakwenza ukuba laba bantu badle izwe engalifungela oyise ukubanika lona.

UJoshuwa wathi: Maye, Nkosi Nkulunkulu! Ubaweliseleni iJordani nakanye laba bantu ukuba usinikele esandleni sama -Amori, usibhubhise, na? Sengathi nga saneliswa ukuhlala ngaphesheya kweJordani!

Sengathi laba bantu nga besesandleni sami ; bengiyakumsusa u-Abimeleki. Wathi ku-Abimeleki: Yandisa impi yakho, uphume.

UZebule wayesethi kuye: Uphi manje umlomo wakho ukuba uthi : Ngubani u-Abimeleki ukuba simkhonze na ? Akusibo labo bantu obadeleleyo na? Ake uphume manje, ulwe nabo.

Base bemuka labo bantu abayisihlanu , bafika eLayishi , babona abantu abakulo ukuthi basahlala belondekile ngendl ela yamaSidoni , benokuthula, bengenaluvalo, ngokuba kwakungekho ezweni onamandla ukuba abajabhise ngalutho; babekude namaSidoni, bengenandaba nabanye abantu.

Ngalokho khiphani labo bantu , abantu ababi , abaseGibeya, ukuba sibabulale, sixoshe ububi kwa -Israyeli. Kepha uBenjamini kavumanga ukulalela izwi labafowabo, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Phakathi kwabo bonke labo bantu kwakukhona amadoda angamakhulu ayisikhombisa akhethiweyo angamanxele; onke ayekwazi ukuphonsa amatshe ngisho nasonweleni, engageji.

Isiboniso esinqunyiweyo phakathi kwa bantu bakwa -Israyeli nabaqamekeli sasiyilesi sokuba bathunqise umusi omkhulu wenyuke emzini.

Bonke a bantu bafika ukuba bamdlise uDavide isinkwa kusesemini ; kepha uDavide wafunga wathi : Makenze njalo kimi uNkulunkulu , enezele futhi , uma ngidla isinkwa noma okunye lingakashoni ilanga.

Bheka, ngimelene nabaprofetha amaphupho amanga , usho uJehova, bawalandise, badukise abantu bami ngamanga abo nangokuwawa za kwabo; mina-ke angibathumanga nokho, angibayalanga, futhi abasizanga laba bantu, usho uJehova.

Nxa laba bantu , noma umprofethi, noma umpristi, bekubuza bethi: Iyini indaba kaJehova ? uyakubatshela ukuthi : Yinina eniyindaba , nokuthi: Ngiyakunilahla, usho uJehova.

Ngase ngikhuluma kubapristi nakubo bonke laba bantu, ngithi: Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Ningawalaleli amazwi abaprofethi benu abaprofetha kini ukuthi: Bhekani, izitsha zendlu kaJehova ziyakubuyiswa eBabele masinyane. Ngokuba baprofetha amanga kini.

Wayesethi umprofethi uJeremiya kuHananiya umprofet hi: Mawuzwe, Hananiya; uJehova kakuthumanga , kepha wena wenza laba bantu ukuba bethembe amanga.

ngalokho usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Bhekani, ngiyakumhambela uShemaya waseNehelamu nenzalo yakhe ; akayikuba namuntu oyakuhlala phakathi kwalaba bantu, angaboni okuhle engiyakwenzela khona abantu bami , usho uJehova, ngokuba ukhulume ukuhlubuka kuJehova.

Awunakanga yini abakukhulumileyo laba bantu , bethi: Imindeni yomibili ayikhethayo uyilahlile na? Base bebadelela abantu bami , baze bangabe besaba yisizwe ngaphambi kwabo.

Njengokuba amadodana kaJonadaba indodana kaRekabi egcinile umyalo kayise awayala ngawo, kepha laba bantu bengangilalelanga.

Mhlawumbe ukunxusa kwabo kuyakufika phambi kukaJehova, babuye, kube yilowo nalowo endleleni yakhe embi , ngokuba inkulu intukuthel o nokufutheka akukhulumileyo uJehova ngalaba bantu.

UJeremiya wathi futhi enkosini uSedekiya : Ngoneni kuwe, nasezincekwini zakho, nakulaba bantu ukuba ningifake etilongweni na?

Zase zithi izikhulu enkosini: Makabulawe lo muntu, njengokuba edangalisa izandla zamadoda empi asele kulo muzi nezandla zabantu bonke ngokukhuluma amazwi anjalo kubo , ngokuba lo muntu akafuni ukuthula kwalaba bantu, ubafunela okubi.

Zwanini, bantu bonke , uqaphele, mhlaba nokugcwala kwakho , iNkosi uJehova ibe ngufakazi ngani, iNkosi isethempelini layo elingcwele.

Uma bekuhambahamba umunt u okhuluma umoya nje namanga , athi: Ngiyakuprofetha kuwe ngewayini nangophuzo olunamandla , ubeyakuba ngumprofethi walaba bantu.

Bantu bami , ngenzeni kini ; kuyini enginikhathaze ngakho na ? Ngiphenduleni.

Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uthi: Laba bantu bathi : Akukabi yisikhathi sokuza, isikhathi sokwakha indlu kaJehova.

Kepha qina manje , Zerubabele, usho uJehova , U be namandla , Joshuwa, ndodana kaJehosadaki , mpristi omkhulu , niqine nonke nina bantu bezwe , usho uJehova, nisebenze ngokuba nginani, usho uJehova Sebawoti.

Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uthi: Uma kuyisimangaliso emehlweni ensali yalaba bantu ngalezo zinsuku , kuyakuba yisimangaliso emehlweni ami na ? usho uJehova Sebawoti.

Kepha angisayikuba njalo kuyo insali yalaba bantu njengasezinsukwini zakuqala, usho uJehova Sebawoti.

Ngokuba kuyakuba khona imbewu yokuthula ; umvini uyakuthela izithelo zawo, umhlabathi uveze ukudla kwawo, amazulu anike amazolo awo, ngenze ukuba insali yalaba bantu idle ifa lazo zonke lezi zinto.

Kepha wathi kubo : Bapheni nina ukudla . Bathi-ke: Esinakho yizinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili kuphela ngaphandle kokuba siyobathengela bonke laba bantu ukudla.

bathi: Sizakubenzani laba bantu na ? Ngokuba kusobala kubo bonke abakhileyo eJerusalema ukuthi isibonakaliso esiqhamileyo senziwe yibo , asinakukuphika.

wayesethi kubo: Madoda akwa-Israyeli, qaphelani kulokho enizakukwenza kulaba bantu.

Manje-ke ngithi kini : Dedani kulaba bantu , nibayeke, ngokuba uma leli su nalo msebenzi kuvela kubantu, kuyakuchitheka;

Yona yamlandela uPawulu nathi, yamemeza yathi: Laba bantu bayizinceku zikaNkulunkulu oPhezukonke ezimemezela kini indlela yensindiso.

Kepha sekusile, izinduna zathuma izikhonzi, zathi: Bakhulule labo bantu.

Kwathiwa kuso masingoni utshani bomhlaba , nanye into e luhlaza, nowodwa umuthi, kuphela labo bantu abangenalo uphawu lukaNkulunkulu emabunzini abo.

Ngase ngizwa elinye izwi livela ezulwini , lithi: Phumani kulo, bantu bami, ukuze ningahlanganyeli nalo izono zalo, nokuba ningamukeli okwezinhlupho zalo,
