Inkosi yamboza ubuso bayo, inkosi yakhala ngezwi elikhulu, yathi: Hhawu, ndodana yami Abisalomu, Abisalomu, ndodana yami, ndodana yami!

Indlu inkosi uSolomoni eya yakhela uJehova , ubude bayo babuyizingalo ezingamashumi ayisithupha, nobubanzi bayo babungezingamashumi amabili, nokuphakama kwayo kwakuyizingalo ezingamashumi amathathu.

Ngomnyaka wokuqala kaKoresi inkosi , uKoresi inkosi wakhipha isimemezelo sokuthi : Ngendlu kaNkulunkulu eseJerusalema , indlu mayakhiwe endaweni lapho benik elela khona ngemihlatshelo , zibekwe izisekelo zayo , ziqine, ukuphakama kwayo kube yizingalo ezingamashumi ayisithupha, ububanzi bayo bube yizingalo ezingamashumi ayisithupha;

njengokuba uthunyiwe yinkosi nabeluleki bayo abayisikhombisa ukubuza ngelakwaJuda neJerusalema njengokomthetho kaNkulunkulu wakho osesandleni sakho,

nokuyisa isiliva negolide inkosi nabeluleki bayo abalinikele ngesihle kuNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ondlu yakhe iseJerusalema,

lapho iyibonakalisa ingcebo yombuso wayo odumileyo , nobukhosi nobuhle bobukhulu bayo izi nsuku eziningi , izinsuku eziyikhulu namashumi ayisishiyagalombili.

Inyama yakhe iyezwa ubuhlungu bayo kuphela ; umphefumulo wakhe uzidabukela wona kuphela.

Iyiswa enkosini igqoke izingubo ezifekethisiweyo; izintombi ezingabangane bayo ziyayilandela; ziyiswa kuwe.

Esalandele izimvukazi ezenyisayo , yamthabatha ukuba abeluse abantu bayo uJakobe, nefa layo u-Israyeli.

Imicabango yakho , Nkulunkulu, ingamagugu kimi ; bukhulu kangaka ubuningi bayo.

Inhliziyo iyazi ubumunyu bayo; umfokazi akahlanganyeli intokozo yayo.

ngalokho bheka , iNkosi iyabakhuphulela amanzi omfula anamandla namaningi -- yinkosi yase-Asiriya nabo bonke ubukhosi bayo -- ukhuphuke phezu kwazo zonke izingu zawo, weqe nazo zonke izindonga zawo,

Njengalokhu abaningi bamangala ngayo ubuso bayo babonakele kunobabantu, nesimo sayo kunesamadodana abantu

Yacindezelwa, kepha noma yathotshiswa , ayivulanga umlomo wayo ; njengewundlu eliyiswa ekuhlatshweni , nanjengemvu ethule phambi kwabagundi bayo, ayiwuvulanga umlomo wayo.

Ngakhuluma kuSedekiya inkosi yakwaJuda njengawo onke lawa mazwi , ngathi: Bekani izintamo zenu phansi kwejoka lenkosi yaseBabele, niyikhonze, yona nabantu bayo, niphile.

IDamaseku lalingumthengi wakho ngenxa yobuningi bemisebenzi yakho , ngobuningi bayo yonke ingcebo, linewayini laseHeliboni noboya obumhlophe bezimvu.

Ngiyakugcwalisa izintaba zayo ngababuleweyo bayo , abagwazwe ngenkemba bawa emagqumeni akho , nasezigodini zakho , nakuyo yonke imifula yakho.

Iyakufika inkosi yasenyakatho, inqwabele iduli, ithathe umuzi obiyelweyo; izingalo zaseningizimu aziyikuma , nabantu bayo abakhethiweyo abayikuba namandla okuma.

Yamemezela, yasho eNineve ngomthetho we nkosi nabakhulu bayo , yathi: Makungabikho muntu onambitha utho , nasilwane, nankomo, namvu, bangadli, bangaphuzi manzi,

Ngubani onguNkulunkulu onjengaw e othethelela insali yefa lakho ubu bi bayo, uyiyekele isiphambeko sayo , na? Akabambeleli entukuthelweni yakhe kuze kube phakade, ngokuba wenamela umusa.

Lapho iyakuthuma izingelosi , iqoqe abakhethiweyo bayo emimoyeni yomine, kusukela emkhawulweni womhlaba kuze kube semkhawulweni wezulu.

Mayibongwe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ngokuba ibahambele abantu bayo, yabenzela inkululeko.

njengalokho yakhuluma ngomlomo wabaprofethi bayo abangcwele basendulo,

ukunika abantu bayo ukuyazi insindiso ngokuthethelelwa kwezono zabo,

Abazali bayo bethuka; wabayala ukuba bangatsheli muntu okwenzekileyo.

Yayisithi iNkosi : Ngumuphi-ke umphathi othembekileyo noqondileyo , inkosi yakhe eyakumbeka phezu kwabendlu bayo ukuba abanike isabelo sabo sokudla ngesikhathi sakho?

Kepha nginovalo lokuthi njengalokho inyok a yamkhohlisa u -Eva ngobuqili bayo, kanjalo izingqondo zenu mhlawumbe zingadukiswa , ziyeke ubuqotho nobumhlophe ngakuKristu.

Konke okuba bayo, nentukuthelo, nolaka, nomsindo, nokuhlambalaza makususwe kini kanye nakho konke okubi.

Ngokuba siyamazi owathi: Ngeyami impindiselo, yimina engiyakubuyisela, futhi-ke: INkosi iyakubahlulela abantu bayo.

ngokuba, Yonke inyama injengotshani , nobukhosi bayo bonke bunjengembali yotshani ; utshani buyabuna , nembali iyavuthuluka , kepha izwi leNkosi limi kuze kube phakade.

Kubehlele njengokwesaga esiqinisileyo esithi : Inja yabuyela ebuhlanzweni bayo, nokuthi: Ingulube igezwe qede yaphindela ukuzibhixa odakeni.

Ilunga kuyo inkosikazi ekhethiweyo nabantwana bayo , engibathanda ngeqiniso, kungeyimi ngedwa kodwa nabo bonke abalaziyo iqiniso,

U-Enoke ongowesikhombisa kusukela ku-Adamu waprofetha ngabo, wathi: Bheka, iNkosi iyakufika nabangcwele bayo abayizigidigidi,

Ngase ngibona enye ingelosi enamandla yehla ezulwini yembethe ifu , nothingo lwenkosikazi lwaluphezu kwekhanda layo , nobuso bayo babunjengelanga, nezinyawo zayo zinjengezinsika zomlilo,
