UMose wayesekhuluma kubantu, wathi: Hlomiselani impi amadoda phakathi kwenu ukuba ahlasele abakwaMidiyani , aphindisele uJehova kwabakwaMidiyani;

Kwase kunikelwa ezinkulungwaneni zakwa -Israyeli inkulungwane kuleso naleso sizwe, izinkulungwane eziyishumi nambili, zihlonyiselwe impi.

Nenxenye eyayiyisabelo sabaphuma impi umumo wayo wawuyizimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu namashumi amathathu nesikhombisa namakhulu ayisihlanu,

UMose wayesethi kubantwana bakwaGadi nakubantwana bakwaRubeni : Abafowenu bayakuphuma impi, nina nihlale lapha, na?

UMose wayesethi kubo : Uma nenza lokhu , uma nihloma ukuba nihambe phambi kukaJehova, niphume impi,

kepha izinceku zakho ziyakuwela , kube yilowo nalowo ohlomele ukulwa , phambi kukaJehova, ziphume impi, njengalokhu isho inkosi yami.

nowakwenzayo kuyo impi yaseGibithe , nakuwo amahhashi abo , nakuzo izinqola zabo , nokwenza kwakhe ukuba amanzi oLwandle Olubomvu abaminzise ekunixosheni kwabo , nokubabhubhisa kukaJehova kuze kube namuhla,

Nxa uphuma impi ukuhlasela izitha zakho , bese wubona amahhashi , nezinqola, nabantu abaningi kunawe , ungabesabi, ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho unawe, yena owakukhuphula ezweni laseGibithe.

Lapho uphuma impi ukuhlasela izitha zakho uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho azinikela ezandleni zakho, uzithumbe,

Nxa umuntu ethatha umfazi omus ha, akayikuphuma impi, anganikwa futhi umsebenzi noma yimuphi ; uyakuhlala ekhululekile ekhaya umnyaka , athokozise umkakhe amthathileyo. Izibambiso

kuphela ukuba izizukulwane zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli zazi , zifundiswe impi, ikakhulu labo ababengayazi ngaphambili.

UMoya kaJehova wayephezu kwakhe, wahlulela u-Israyeli, waphuma impi, uJehova wanikela uKushani Rishatayimi inkosi yase-Aramu Naharayimi esandleni sakhe; isandla sakhe samahlula uKushani Rishatayimi.

Kepha uBaraki waxosha izinqola nempi kwaze kwaba seHarosheti labezizwe; yonke impi kaSisera yawa ngosiko lwenkemba, akwasala muntu.

Bakhetha onkulunkulu abasha ; lapho kwafika impi emasangweni; kwabonwa isihlangu noma umkhonto yin i phakathi kwezinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane kwa-Israyeli na?

Kwathi uGideyoni ekuzwa ukulandwa kwephupho nokuchazwa kwalo , wakhuleka; wabuyela ekamu lakwa-Israyeli, wathi: Vukani, ngokuba uJehova unikele esandleni senu impi yakwaMidiyani.

Izikhulu zaseSukoti zathi: Izandla zikaZeba noSalimuna sezisesandleni sakho ukuba siphe impi yakho isinkwa na?

UGideyoni wenyuka ngendlela yabahlala ematendeni ngasempumalanga kwaseNoba neJogibeha, wanqoba impi, impi yayithi ilondekile.

OZeba noSalimuna babaleka , wabaxosha; wawabamba amakhosi omabili akwaMidiyani, oZeba noSalimuna, wachitha impi yonke.

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

Abantu, amadoda akwa-Israyeli, baziqinisa, babuye bahlela impi endaweni abazihlela kuyo ngosuku lokuqala.

AmaFilisti azihlela ukuhlangana no -Israyeli; impi yaqhubeka, u-Israyeli wahlulwa phambi kwamaFilisti abulala empini ngasendle kungathi abantu abayizinkulungwane ezine.

Naye uSawule w aya ekhaya lakhe eGibeya ; kwahamba naye impi ezinhliziyo zayo uNkulunkulu azithintile.

USawule nabantu bakwa -Israyeli babuthana , bamisa esigodini sase -Ela, bahlela impi ukuhlangabezana namaFilisti.

Wema, wamemeza ezinhleni zakwa -Israyeli, wathi kuzo : Niphumelani ukuhlela impi na ? Angisiye umFilisti , nina niyizinceku zikaSawule , na? Zikhetheleni umuntu, ehle eze kimi.

UDavide wavuka ekuseni kakhulu , washiya izimvu kumlindi , wathatha, wahamba, njengalokho uJese amyale ngakho ; wafika enqabeni yezinq ola, impi isaphuma ukuyakuhlelwa, yahlaba umkhosi.

U-Israyeli namaFilisti bahlela impi, babhekana.

UDavide wakhuluma kubantu ababemi naye , wathi: Kuyakwenziwa ntoni kumuntu obulala lowo mFilisti , asuse ihlazo kwa -Israyeli, na? Ngokuba ngubani lowo mFilisti ongasokile ukuba ayeyise impi kaNkulunkulu ophilayo na?

U-Eliyabe umfowabo omkhulu wezwa lapho ekhuluma kubantu ; intukuthelo ka -Eliyabe yamvuthela uDavide, wathi: Wehleleni na? Uzishiye kubani leziya zimvu ezingengakanani ehlane na ? Mina ngiyakwazi ukuziphakamisa kwakho nobubi benhliziyo yakho , ngokuba wehlile ukuba ubuke impi.

Inceku yakho yahlula ingonyama nebhere , nalowo mFilisti ongasokile uyakuba njengenye yazo, lokhu eyeyisile impi kaNkulunkulu ophilayo.

Kwabuye kwaba khona impi futhi ; uDavide waphuma walwa namaFilisti , wawaceka ngokuceka okukhulu; ambalekela.

Kwathi ngalezo zinsuku amaFilisti abutha amabutho awo ukuba aphume impi no -Israyeli. U-Akhishi wathi kuDavide : Yazi nokwazi ukuthi uyakuphuma impi nami, wena nabantu bakho.

Lapho uSawule ebona impi yamaFilisti , wesaba, inhliziyo yakhe yathuthumela kakhulu.

Ngokuba ngokucabanga ungaphaka impi yakho , nokusinda kumi ngobuningi babeluleki.

Impi yaba nzima kuSawule; abacibishelayo bamfica, wakhathazeka kakhulu ngenxa yabacibishelayo.

Isikhathi uDavide eyinkosi ngaso eHebroni phezu kwendlu yakwaJuda sasiyiminyaka eyisikhombisa nezinyanga eziyisithupha. Ukulwa kuka-Ishi Bosheti noDavide. Impi yaseGibeyoni

Kuyakuthi lapho usuzwa umsindo wokuhamba ezihlokweni zamajikijolo , usheshe, ngokuba kuyilapho uJehova eyakube ephumile ngaphambi kwakho ukuchitha impi yamaFilisti.

Lapho uThoyi inkosi yaseHamati ezwa ukuthi uDavide u shayile yonke impi kaHadadezeri,

Abantwana bakwa -Amoni baphuma , bahlela impi ngasesikhaleni sesango ; ama-Aramu aseSoba naseRehobe , nabantu baseThobi , nabaseMahakha babebodwa endle.

Esefikile kuye u -Uriya, uDavide wabuza kuye impilo yakhe , nempilo yabantu, nokuthi impi ihamba kanjani.

Waloba encwadini ukuthi : Misani u -Uriya ngaphambili, lapho impi ishisa khona, nihlehle kuye ukuba ashaywe, afe.

UDavide wayesethi kuso isithunywa : Uyakusho kanje kuJowabe , uthi: Le nto mayingabi mbi emehlweni akho , ngokuba inkemba idla omunye njengomunye; qinisa impi yakho ngasemzini, uwuchithe; bese wumqunga isibindi.

Ngokuba impi yahlakazeka khona ezweni lonke , ihlathi laqeda abantu abaningi ngalolo suku kunabadliwa yinkemba. Ukufa kuka-Abisalomu nokukhala kukaDavide

Abantu bangena emzini ngalolo suku ngokunyenya njengabantu abanamahloni benyenya, bebalekela impi.

AmaFilisti abuye aphaka impi no -Israyeli; uDavide wehla, izinceku zakhe zinaye, balwa namaFilisti; uDavide waphela amandla.

Kepha u-Abishayi indodana kaSeruya wamsiza , wamshaya umFi listi wambulala. Base befunga kuye abantu bakaDavide , bathi: Awusayikuphuma impi nathi, funa ucime isibani sakwa-Israyeli.

Kwathi emva kwalokho kwabuye kwavuka impi namaFilisti eGobi ; khona uSibekayi umHushati wabulala uSafi owayengowamadodana amaRefa.

Kwabuye kwaba khona impi namaFilisti eGobi ; u-Elihanani indodana kaJahari Oregimi waseBetlehema wabulala uGoliyati umGiti oluthi lomkhonto wakhe lwalunjengogongolo lomaluki.

Kwabuye kwaba khona impi eGati , lapho kwakukhona umuntu omude owayeneminwe ey isithupha esandleni nezinzwani eziyisthupha onyaweni , kungamashumi amabili nane kukonke; naye wazalwa yiRefa.

Ngokuba ngawe ngingahlasela impi ; ngoNkulunkulu wami ngingeqa ugange.

Kwehla abathathu kwaba yizinhloko ezingamashumi amathathu , bafika kuDavide ngesikhathi sokuvuna emhumeni wase -Adulamu; impi yamaFilisti yayimise esiGodini samaRefa.

Uma abantu bakho bephuma impi ukulwa nesitha sabo ngendlela obathuma ngayo , bese bekhuleka ku Jehova bebhekene nalo muzi owukhethileyo nale ndlu engiyakhele igama lakho,

UBeni Hadadi inkosi yase -Aramu wabutha yonke impi yakhe ; wayenamakhosi angamashumi amathathu nambili , namahhashi, nezinqola; wenyuka, wavimbezela iSamariya, walwa nalo,

Wayesethi u -Ahabi: Ngobani na ? Wathi: Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Ngezinsizwa zez ikhulu zezifunda . Wayesethi: Ngubani oyakokha impi ? Wathi: Nguwe.

uzibalele impi njengaleyo mpi olahlekelwe yiyo , ihhashi ngehhashi, inqola ngenqola, silwe nabo ethafeni , sibahlule impela . Yalalela izwi labo , yenze njalo.

Nokho wanamathela ezonweni zikaJerobowamu indodana kaNebati onisa ngazo u-Israyeli, kasukanga kuzo. Impi noMowabi

Isikhonzi somuntu kaNkulunkulu sesivukile ekuseni , saphuma, bheka, impi enamahhashi nezinqola yayiwukakile umuzi . Yayisithi inceku kuye: Maye, nkosi! Sesiyakwenze njani?

Kwathi emva kwalokho uBeni Hadadi , inkosi yase-Aramu, wabutha yonke impi yakhe, wenyuka, wavimbezela iSamariya.

INkosi ibiyizwisile impi yama -Aramu umsindo wezinqola , nomsindo wamahhashi, nomsindo wempi enkulu aze akhuluma omunye komunye ngokuthi: Bheka, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli isiqashele amakhosi amaHeti namakhosi aseGibithe ukuba asifikele.

Kwathi ngomnyaka wesishiyagalolunye wokubusa kwakhe , ngenyanga yeshumi ngolweshumi lwenyanga , uNebukadinesari inkosi yaseBabele wafika, yena nayo yonke impi yakhe , eJerusalema, wamisa malungana nalo; bakha inqaba ngakulo nxazonke.

Kodwa impi yamaKaledi yayixosha inkosi , yayifica emathafeni aseJeriko , yonke impi yayo yahlakazeka.

Yonke impi yamaKaledi induna yabalindi eyayinayo yadiliza iz ingange zaseJerusalema nxazonke.

Emihleni kaSawule baphaka impi kumaHagiri, awa ngesandla sabo; bahlala ematendeni abo ngasempumalanga yonke yakwaGileyadi.

Amadodana kaRubeni , nabakwaGadi, nenxenye yesizwe sakwaManase , amadoda anamandla, amadoda aphatha ihawu nenkemba , ansala umnsalo , ayefunde ukulwa , ayeyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane nane namakhulu ayisikhombisa namashumi ayisithupha aphuma impi.

Aphaka impi kumaHagiri, noJeturu, noNafishi, noNodabi.

Ngokuba kwawa abaningi befile , lokhu impi yayingekaNkulunkulu. Ahlala esikhundleni sabo aze athunjwa.

Bonke labo babe ngamadodana kaJediyayeli ngezinhloko zezindlu zawoyise, amaqhawe anamandla , beyizinkulungwane eziyishumi nesikhombisa namakhulu amabili abangaphuma impi ukuyokulwa.

Impi yaba nzima kuSawule ; abacibishelayo bamfica; wakhathazeka ngenxa yabacibishelayo.

Kwehla abathathu kwabayizinhloko ezingamashumi amathathu , baya etsheni kuDavide emhumeni wase -Adulamu; impi yamaFilisti yayimise esiGodini samaRefa.

KuZebuloni abangaphuma impi, bayihlele impi benezikhali zonke zokulwa , yizinkulungwane ezingamashumi ayisihlanu, bezihlela nganhliziyonye.

KwabakwaDani abangahlela impi yizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nesishiyagalombili namakhulu ayisithupha.

Ku-Asheri abangaphuma impi , bayihlele impi , yizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane.

Onke lawo madoda empi , angahlela impi , afika eHebroni ngezinhliziyo ezipheleleyo ukubeka uDavide inkosi kwa -Israyeli; nabo bonke abaseleyo bakwa-Israyeli babenhliziyonye ukumbeka uDavide inkosi.

Kuyakuthi lapho usuzwa umsindo wokuhamba ezihlokweni zamajikijolo , uphume impi, ngokuba uNkulunkulu uphumile ngaphambi kwakho ukuchitha impi yamaFilisti.

UDavide wenza njengokumyala kukaNkulunkulu, bachitha impi yamaFilisti kusukela eGibeyoni kuze kube seGezeri.

Lapho uThowu inkosi yaseHamati ezwa ukuthi uDavide ushayile yonke impi kaHadarezeri inkosi yaseSoba,

Abantwana bakwa -Amoni baphuma , bahlela impi ngasesangweni lo muzi; kepha amakhosi ayefikile ayewodwa endle.

UJowabe esebona ukuthi impi ibhekene naye ngaphambili nangasemuva , wakhetha kwabakhethekileyo bonke bakwa -Israyeli, wabahlela ukuba balwe nama-Aramu;

UDavide watshelwa , wabutha wonke u -Israyeli, wawela iJordani , wawafikela, wahlela impi ukulwa nawo . UDavide esehlelile impi ukulwa nama-Aramu, alwa naye.

Emva kwalokho kwavuka impi namaFilisti eGezeri ; khona uSibekayi , umHushati, wabulala uSiphayi wamadodana amaRefa; anqotshwa.

Kwabuye kwaba khona impi namaFilisti ; u-Elihanani, indodana kaJayire , wabulala uLahimi umfowabo kaGoliyati , umGiti, oluthi lomkhonto wakhe lwalunjengogongolo lomaluki.

Kwabuye kwaba khona impi eGati , lapho kwakukhona umuntu omude ; iminwe yakhe nezinzwani z akhe kwakungamashumi amabili nane , isithupha esandleni sisinye, nesithupha onyaweni lulunye; naye wazalwa yiRefa.

Uma abantu bakho bephuma impi ukulwa nezitha zabo ngendlela obathuma ngayo , bese bekhuleka kuJehova be bhekene nalo muzi owukhethileyo nale ndlu engiyakhele igama lakho,

Lapho uJuda esephenduka , bheka, impi yayingaphambili nangasemva kwabo; bakhala kuJehova, abapristi bakhalisa amacilongo.

U-Asa wayesephuma ukuhlangabezana naye , bahlela impi esigodini saseSefata ngaseMaresha.

Ngaleso sikhathi kwe za uHanani, umboni ka-Asa, inkosi yakwaJuda, wathi kuye: Ngokuba wencike enkosini yase -Aramu, ungencikanga kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho , ngalokho impi yenkosi yase -Aramu iphunyukile esandleni sakho.

AmaKushe namaLubi ayengesiyo impi enkulu yini , inezinqola nabamahhashi abaningi kakhulu na ? Kepha ngenxa yokwencika kwakho kuJehova wawanikela esandleni sakho.

emva kwakhe kwakunguJehozabadi , enabahlomele impi abayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi ayisishiyagalombili.

wathi: Yizwani nina nonke bakwaJuda, nabakhileyo eJerusalema , nawe nkosi Jehoshafati : usho kanje kini uJehova , uthi: Ningesabi, ningapheli amandla ngenxa yalesi sixuku esikhulu , ngokuba impi ayisiyo eyenu , ngekaNkulunkulu.

Kwathi ngasekupheleni komnyaka impi yase -Aramu yakhuphukela kuye , yafika kwaJuda naseJerusalema, yabhubhisa zonke izikhulu zabantu phakathi kwabantu, yathuma yonke impango yazo enkosini yaseDamaseku.

Ngokuba impi yase -Aramu yafika neviyo elincane labantu , nokho uJehova wanikela impi enkulu kakhulu esandleni sabo , ngokuba babemshiyile uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise. Base bemahlulela uJowashi.

Futhi u-Amasiya wabutha uJuda, wabamisa ngokwezindlu zawoyise phansi kwezinduna zezinkulungwane nezinduna zamakhulu , oJuda wonke noBenjamini; wababala kusukela kwabaneminyaka en gamashumi amabili kuya phezulu , wabafumana beyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu abakhethekileyo abangaphuma impi nabangaphatha umkhonto nesihlangu.

Kepha kwafika kuye umuntu kaNkulunkulu , wathi: Nkosi, impi yakwa - Israyeli mayingahambi nawe , ngokuba uJehova akasenaye u -Israyeli nabo bonke abantwana bakwa-Efrayimi,

kepha noma kuhamba wena , ukwenza, uziqinisela impi ; uNkulunkulu uyakukuwisa phansi ebuswen i bezitha . Ngokuba uNkulunkulu unamandla okuwisa phansi nokusiza.

U-Amasiya wayesethi kulowo muntu kaNkulunkulu: Kepha siyakwenze njani ngamatalenta ayikhulu engiwanike impi yakwa -Israyeli na ? Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathi: UJehova unamandla okukunika okuningi kunalokho.

U-Amasiya wayeseyahlukanisa impi ebifike kuye ivela kwa -Efrayimi ukuba iye ekhaya ; ngalokho ulaka lwabo lwavuthela kakhulu uJuda , babuyela ekhaya bevutha ulaka.

Kepha abantu bempi ababebuyiselwe emu va ngu -Amasiya ukuba bangaphumi impi naye baphundla imizi yakwaJuda kusukela eSamariya kuze kube seBeti Horo ni, babulala kuyo izinkulungwane ezintathu , bathatha impango eningi.

Phansi kwezandl a zabo kwakukhona impi enamandla eyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu nezinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa namakhulu ayisihlanu, eyalwa ngamandla amakhulu ukuba isize inkosi ezitheni.

U-Uziya walungisela impi yonke izihlangu , nemikhonto, nezigqoko, namabhantshi, neminsalo, namatshe endwayimana.

Kepha kwakukhona lapho umprofethi kaJehova ogama lakhe lalingu -Odedi; waphuma ukuhlangabeza impi eyayiza eSamariya , wathi kubo : Bhekani, ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo wayethukuthelele uJuda , wabanikela esandleni senu , kepha nin a nibabulele ngokufutha okufinyelele nasezulwini.

Ngokuba nganginamahloni ukucela enkosini impi nabamahhashi ukuba basisize ezitheni zasendleleni, ngokuba sasikhulumile enkosini, sathi: Isandla sikaNkulunkulu wethu siphezu kwabo bonke abamfun ayo ukuba kube kuhle , kepha amandla akhe nentukuthelo yakhe kuphezu kwabo bonke abamshiyayo.

Ukuhlupheka nosizi kuyamethusa ; kuyamahlula njengenkosi ezil ungiselele impi,

Ngokuba ngawe n gingahlasela impi ; ngoNkulunkulu wami ngingeqa ugange.

Noma impi imisa ngakimi , inhliziyo yami ayesabi ; noma ngivukelwa ngukulwa, nokho nginethemba.

Baceba okubi enhliziyweni yabo; izinsuku zonke baviva impi.

Amacebo onke ayaqiniswa ngokululekana; yilwa impi ngamasu.

Umsindo wesixuku ezintaben i kungathi ngowabantu aban ingi! Umsindo wokuxokozela kwemibuso yabezizwe ihlangene! UJehova Sebawoti uyabutha impi yakhe.

nomoya wokwahlulela kohlezi ekwahluleleni , namandla kubo ababuy isa impi esangweni. Ukonakala kwaseJerusalema

Ngokuba uJehova uthukuthelela izizwe zonke , ufuthekela yonke impi yazo ; uziqalekisile, uzinikele ekubulaweni.

okhipha izinqola namahhashi, impi namandla ; kuyalala kanyekanye , akusenakuvuka; kucishile, kucinyiwe njengomongo.

Makuzwakale ukukhala e zindlini zabo , lapho ubehlisela impi ngokuzumayo, ngokuba bembile umgodi wokungibamba , bafihlela izinyawo zami izingibe.

Ngaleso sikhathi impi yenkosi yaseBabele yalivimbezela iJerusalema ; uJeremiya umprofethi wayevalelwe egcekeni letilongo elalisendlini yenkosi yakwaJuda,

Izwi elafika kuJeremiya livela kuJehova , lapho uNebukadinesari , inkosi yaseBabele, nayo yonke impi yakhe , nayo yonke imibuso yomhlaba ebuswa yisandla sakhe, nabantu bonke belwa neJerusalema nayo yonke imizi yalo , lathi:

lapho impi yenkosi yaseBabele ilwa neJerusalema nayo yonk e imizi yakwaJuda eseleyo , iLakishi ne -Azeka, ngokuba yiyo eyayisele phakathi kwemizi yakwaJuda iyimizi ebiyelweyo.

Impi kaFaro yayisiphumile eGibithe ; lapho amaKaledi avimbezela iJerusalema ekuzwa, akhuphuka eJerusalema.

Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Niyakusho kanje enkosini yakwaJuda eyanithuma kimi ukubuza kimi , nithi: Bheka, impi kaFaro ephume ukunisiza iyakubuyela eGibithe, izwe lakubo.

Ngokuba noma benichithile impi yonke yamaKaledi elwa nani , kwaze kwasala abantu abagwaziweyo bodwa phakathi kwabo , bona bebeyakuvuka, kube yilowo nalowo etendeni lakhe, bawushise lo muzi ngomlilo.

Kwathi lapho impi yamaKaledi isikhuphukile eJerusalema ngokwesaba impi kaFaro,

Kepha impi yamaKaledi yabaxosha, yamfica uSedekiya emahlane aseJeriko , yambamba, yamkhuphulela kuNebukadinesari , inkosi yaseBabele , eRibila ezweni laseHamati, wamahlulela.

nithi: Qha, ngokuba siyakuya ezweni laseGibithe , lapho singayikubona khona impi , singezwa ukukhala kwecilongo , singalambeli ukudla , sihlale khona,

Ocibishelayo uyakunsala umnsal o kogoba umnsalo khona , nakuye oziphakamisa ngebhantshi lakhe lensimbi; ningasindisi izinsizwa zalo, niqede nya impi yalo yonke.

Kwathi ngomnyaka wesishiyagalolunye wokubusa kwakhe ngenyanga yeshumi, ngolweshumi lwenyanga , kwafika uNebukadinesari, inkosi yaseBabele, yena nayo yonke impi yakhe , eJerusalema, wamisa malungana nalo, bakha inqaba ngakulo nxazonke.

Kodwa impi yamaKaledi yayixosha ink osi, yamfica uSedekiya emathafeni aseJeriko, yonke impi yakhe yahlakazeka.

Yonke impi yamaKaledi induna yabalindi eyayinayo yadiliza izingange zaseJerusalema nxazonke.

Babethile icilongo, balungisile konke, kepha akakho ophuma impi, ngokuba ukufutheka kwami kuphezu kwaso sonke isixuku sabo.

UFaro akayikumenzela impi enkulu nebandla elikhulu empini , lapho benqwabela iduli, bakhe izinqaba, ukuze banqume abantu abaningi.

Ndodana yomuntu, uNebukadinesari inkosi yaseBabele waseb enzisa impi yakhe umsebenzi omkhulu ngeTire ; onke amakhanda aphuculwa , onke amahlombe acothulwa, nokho yena nempi yakhe babengenankokhelo evela eTire ngomsebenzi abalenzela wona.

UFaro uyakubabona , aduduzeke ngaso sonke isixuku sakhe ; ubulewe ngenkemba uFaro nayo yonke impi yakhe, isho iNkosi uJehova.

Ngaprofetha njengalokho ngiyaliwe ; umoya wangena kuwo , aphila, ema ngezinyawo zawo, impi enkulu kakhulu impela.

ngiyakukuguqula, ngifake izingwegwe emihlathini yakho , ngikukhiphe kanye nayo yonke impi yakho , amahhashi nabamahhashi, bonke bembethe kahle kakhulu , iviyo elikhulu elinamahawu nezihlangu , bonke bephethe izinkemba,

Kwabekwa impi yokulwa kanye nomnikelo oshiswa imihla yonke ngesiphambeko: lwaphonsa phansi iqiniso, lwenza njengentando yalo, lwaba nempumelelo.

Abadla ukudla kwayo okumnandi bayakuyibhubhisa, impi yayo ikhukhulwe; abaningi bayakuwa phansi begwaziwe.

Kwasezinsukwini zaseGibeya wonile , Israyeli; bema khona ; impi nabo abobubi ayiyikubafica eGibeya na?

Ngiyakubuyisela kini iminyaka eyadliwa yisikhonyane , nezinkumbi, nenkasa, nesibotho, impi yami enkulu engayithuma phakathi kwenu.

Memezelani lokhu phakathi kwabezizwe , ningcwelise impi , niwavuse amaqhawe; mawasondele, enyuke onke amadoda empi.

Kwathi sekuvele isiyaluyalu esikhulu, induna yenkulungwane yesaba ukuba uPawulu angadwengulwa yibo, yayala impi ukuba yehle imhlwithe phakathi kwabo, imyise ekamu.

Niyafisa, nokho aninalutho ; niyabulala ninomhawu , nokho anizuzi lutho ; niyalwa nenza impi. Aninalutho, ngokuba ningaceli;
