Nakuzo zonke izilwane uzakungenisa ezimbili kuzo zonke izinhlobo zenyama ukuba ziphile nawe, kube ngeyeduna neyensikazi.

Kuzo izinyoni ngezinhlobo zazo , nakuzo izinkomo ngezinhlobo zazo , nakuzo izilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni ngezinhlobo zazo kuzakufika kuwe ezimbili zezinhlobo zonke, ziphile.

Kuzo izilwane ezihlambulukileyo nezingahlambulukile , nezinyoni, nezilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni

UNowa wamakhela uJehova i -altare, wathatha kuzo zonke izilwane ezihlambulukileyo nakuzo zonke izinyon i ezihlambulukileyo , wanikela umnikelo wokushiswa e-altare.

Kodwa elenu igazi okukulo umphefumulo wenu ngiyakulibiza ; kuzo zonke izilwane ngiyakulibiza ; nakubo bonke abantu ngiyakubiza umphefumulo wabo, owomunye esandleni somunye.

Kuzo izinkambo zakhe wasuka eningizimu , wafika eBethele , leyo ndawo lapho lalikhona itende lakhe kuqala, phakathi kweBethele ne-Ayi,

Kwathi mhla uNkulunkulu engiphumisa endli ni kababa, ngathi kuye: Yilo umusa ozakungenzela wona: ezindaweni zonke esiyakufika kuzo, yisho ngami ukuthi: Ungumnewethu.

Ngalokho ningesabi ; mina ngiyakunondla , nina nezingane zenu . Wabaduduza, wakhuluma kuzo izinhliziyo zabo. Ukufa kukaJosefa

Izanusi zazingenakuma phambi kukaMose ngenxa yamathumba , ngokuba amathumba ayekhona kuzo izanusi nakubo bonke abaseGibithe.

Bazakuthabatha igazi , balibhece ezinsikeni zombili zomnyango nasekhothameni lomnyango ezindlini abayakulidlela kuzo.

Ngokuba ngiyakudabula izwe laseGibithe ngalobo busuku, ngibulale onke amazibulo ezweni laseGibithe , abantu nezinkomo , ngenze izahlulelo kuzo zonke izithixo zaseGibithe; nginguJehova.

nithi: Kungumhlatshelo wephasika likaJehova owadlula kuzo izindlu zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli mhla ebulala abaseGibithe , ezophula izindlu zethu. Abantu bakhothama, bakhuleka.

Wathi kuzo : Lokhu kuyikho uJehova akukhulumileyo : kusasa kulusuku lokuphumula, isabatha elingcwele likaJehova ; yosani lokho eniyakukosa , nipheke lokho eniyakukupheka , nizibekele konke okuseleyo , kulondolozwe kuze kuse.

Akasibekanga isandla sakhe kuzo izikhulu zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli; sebembonile uNkulunkulu badla, baphuza.

Amatshe ayeyishumi nambili njengamagama amadodana ka -Israyeli, njengamagama abo; njengokuqoshwa kwendandatho yilelo nalelo lalinegama lakhe kuzo izizwe eziyishumi nambili.

Uwuhlephule izingcezu, uthele amafutha kuzo; kungumnikelo wempuphu.

Yishoni kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, nithi: Yilokhu okuphilayo eningakudla kuzo zonke izilwane zasemhlabeni:

Ngalolo suku abantu bayakulahla kuw o amavukuzi nakuwo amalulwan e izithombe zabo zesiliv a nezithombe zabo zegolide , abazenzele zona ukuba bakhuleke kuzo,

Lezi ningazidla kuzo zonke ezisemanzini : zonke ezinamaphiko nezingcwecwe ezisemanzini neziselwandle nezisemifuleni, lezo ningazidla.

Kepha lezi ningazidla kuzo zonke izilwanyana ezinamaphiko , ezihamba ngezinyawo zozine , ezinamanqina ngaphezu kwezinyawo zazo ukuxhuma ngazo emhlabeni;

kuzo ningadla lezi : isikhonyane ngezinhlobo zaso, namaboni ngezinhlobo zawo, namadiye ngezinhlobo zawo, nezintethe ngezinhlobo zazo.

Nazo zonke ezihamba ngezidladla kuzo zonke izilwane ezihamba ngezinyawo ezine zingcolile kini ; bonke abathinta izidumbu zazo bayakuba ngabangcolile kuze kuhlwe.

Lezi zingcolile kini kuzo izilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni: uchakide, nempuku, noxamu ngezinhlobo zakhe,

Nezitsha zonke esiwela kuzo esinye sazo , noma yintoni ephakathi kwazo iyakuba ngengcolile, nize nizaphule.

Yonke imibhede alala kuyo ocucuzayo iyakuba ngen gcolile; nezinto zonke ahlala kuzo ziyakuba ngezingcolile.

Zonke izihlalo akhwela kuzo ocucuzayo ziyakuba ngezingcolile.

Ningaphendukeli kuzo izithombe, ningazenzeli onkulunkulu ababunjiweyo; nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu.

Ngomnyaka wesihlanu niyakudla kuzo izithelo zayo , ukuze inithelele kakhulu; nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu.

Zamukele kuzo , ukuze zenze inkonzo yetende lokuhlangana , uzinike amaLevi, kube yilowo nalowo muntu ngokomsebenzi wakhe.

Khuluma kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli, uthabathe kubo izintonga , ibe nye kuleyo naleyo ndlu kayise , kuzo zonke izikhulu njengezindlu zawoyise , izintonga eziyishumi nambili ; loba wena igama lalowo nalowo muntu entongeni yakhe.

Kuzo zonke izipho zenu niyakunikela ngayo yonke iminikelo yokuphakanyiswa kuJehova , konke okuhle kwayo , inxenye yayo engcwelisiweyo.

Nazo zonke izitsha ezivulekileyo ezingenaso isisibekelo esiboshwe kuzo zingcolile.

UBileyamu wavuka ekuseni , wathi kuzo izikhulu zikaBalaki : Buyelani ezweni lakini, ngokuba uJehova uyangalela ukuba ngihambe nani.

UBileyamu waphendula wathi kuzo izinceku zikaBalaki : Noma uBalaki ebeyakunginika indlu yakhe igcwele isiliva negolide, anginakulidlula izwi likaJehova uNkulunkulu wami ukwenza okuncane nokukhulu.

UBileyamu wathi kuBalaki : Angikhulumanga yini kuzo izithunywa zakho owazithuma kimi ukuthi:

Umnikelo wabo wokuphuzwa uyakuba yinxenye yehini lewayini ngenkunzi, nokwesithathu kwehini ngenqama , nokwesine kwehini ngemvu ; lokhu kungumnikelo wokushiswa wezinyanga zonke kuzo zonke izinyanga zomnyaka.

UMose wayesekhuluma kuzo izinhloko zezizwe zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, ethi: Yilokhu uJehova ayale ngakho ukuthi:

UMose wathi kuzo: Nisindisile bonke abesifazane na?

Izinkomo zaziyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amathathu nesithupha, intela kaJehova kuzo ingamashumi ayisikhombisa nambili.

Izimbongolo zaziyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amathathu namakhulu ayisihlanu, intela kaJehova kuzo ingamashumi ayisithupha nanye.

OMose no -Eleyazare umpristi bamukela igolide kuzo izinduna zezinkulungwane nakwezamakhulu , baliletha etendeni lokuhlangana, laba yisikhumbuzo sabantwana bakwa-Israyeli phambi kukaJehova.

Abantwana bakwaGadi nabantwana bakwaRubeni baphendula bathi : Njengalokho uJehova eshilo kuzo izinceku zakho, siyakwenze njalo.

Lezi zinto ziyakuba yisimiso sesahlulelo kini ezizukulwaneni zenu kuzo zonke izindlu zenu.

nalapho uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ezinikela phambi kwakho , uzinqobe, wozichitha nokuzichitha, ungenzi isivumelwano nazo, ungabi namusa kuzo,

izilingo ezinkulu azibonayo amehlo akho , nezibonakaliso, nezimangaliso, nesandla esinamandla , nengalo eyelul iweyo uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akukhipha ngakho ; uyakwenza kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho kuzo zonke izizwe ozesabayo.

izwe lapho uyakudla khona isinkwa kungekho kuswela ; awuyikudinga lutho; izwe elimatshe alo ayinsimbi, nelizintaba zalo ungemba kuzo ithusi.

funa lapho usudlile wasutha , nalapho usuwakhile izindlu e zinhle, wahlala kuzo,

Kodwa indawo uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu ayakuyikhetha kuzo zonke izizwe zenu ukuba abeke igama lakhe kuyo , leyo ndlu yakhe niyakuyifuna , nize kuyo,

Ningadla nezilwane ezahlukanisa inselo, ezidabula inselo kabili, ezetshisayo kuzo izilwane.

Lezi ningazidla kuzo zonke ez isemanzini: zonke ezinamaphiko nezingcwecwe;

Ningadla kuzo zonke izinyoni ezihlambulukileyo.

Kodwa yilezi eningayikudla kuzo: ukhozi, nenqe, nengqungqulu,

Ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho uyakukubusisa njengokukwethembisa kwakhe, utsheleke izizwe eziningi, kepha ungatsheleki lutho kuzo; uyakubusa izizwe eziningi, kepha zona aziyikukubusa wena.

Izinsuku eziyisikh ombisa uyakumgcinela uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho umkhosi endaweni uJehova ayakuyikhetha , ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho uyakukubusisa kuzo zonke izithelo zakho nasemsebenzini wonke wezandla zakho, uthokoze kakhulu.

Ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho umkhethile kuzo zonke izizwe zakho ukuba eme, akhonze egameni likaJehova, yena namadodana akhe, kuze kube phakade.

Awuyikubona inkabi yomfowenu noma imvu yakhe iduka , ucashe kuzo ; wozibuyisela nokuzibuyisela kumfowenu.

Awuyikubona imbongolo yomfowenu noma inkabi yakhe iwile endleleni , ucashe kuzo; womsiza nokumsiza ukuzivusa.

Kuyakuthi lapho uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho esekuphumuzile kuzo zonke izitha zakho nxazonke ezweni uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akunika lona libe yifa lakho ukuba ulidle , wesule inkumbulo ka-Amaleki phansi kwezulu ; awuyikukhohlwa lokho.

UJehova uyakukuvulela indlu yakhe yengcebo , izulu, anise imvula yezwe lakho ngesikhathi sayo , abusise wonke umsebenzi wesandla sakho ; uyakutsheleka izizwe eziningi, kepha ungatsheleki lutho kuzo.

ngokuba nina niyazi ukuthi sahlala ezweni laseGibithe nokuthi sad lula phakathi kwezizwe enadabula kuzo,

UJehova uyakumahlukanisela ububi kuzo zonke izizwe zakwa -Israyeli njengeziqalekiso zonke zesivumelwano ezilotshwe kule ncwadi yomthetho.

UJehova uyakuzinikela phambi kwenu , nenze kuzo njengemiyalo yonke enginiyale ngayo.

Zonke izindawo ayakunyathela kuzo amathe onyawo lwenu ngininikile zona, njengalokho ngakhuluma kuMose.

UJoshuwa wathi kuzo : Ningesabi, ningabi naluvalo; qinani, nime isibindi, ngokuba uJehova uyakwenza kanjalo kuzo zonke izitha zenu enilwa nazo.

UJehova wabanika ukuphumula nxazonke njengakho konke ayekufungile koyise; kwakungekho muntu kuzo zonke izitha zabo owema phambi kwabo ; uJehova wanikela zonke izitha zabo esandleni sabo.

Qaphelisisani kuphela ukwenza imiyalo nomthetho aniyala ngakho uMose inceku kaJehova ukuba nimthande uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu , nihambe kuzo zonke izindlela zakhe , nigcine imiyalo yakhe , ninamathele kuye , nimkhonze ngayo yonke inhliziyo yenu nangawo wonke umphefumulo wenu.

Abantwana bakwaRubeni nabantwana bakwaGadi nenxenye yesizwe sakwaManase baphendula , bakhuluma kuzo izinhloko zemindeni yakwa - Israyeli, bathi:

nibonile konke uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu akwenzile kuzo zonke lezi zizwe ngenxa yenu, ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu nguye onilweleyo.

Ngokuba uma nibuyela emuva , ninamathele ensalini yalezo zizwe , zona lezi ezisele phakathi kwenu, niganiselane nazo, ningene kuzo, nazo kini,

Bhekani, namuhla ngiyahamba indlela yomhlaba wonke ; niyazi ezinhliziyweni zenu zonke nasemiphefumulweni yenu yonke ukuthi akuphuthanga nento eyodwa kuzo zonke izinto ezinhle azikhuluma uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu ngani; kwenziwa konke kini, akuphuthanga nento eyodwa kukho.

Inkosi yabantwana bakwa -Amoni yath i kuzo izithunywa zikaJefta : Ngokuba u-Israyeli walithatha izwe lakithi ekukhuphukeni kwakhe eGibithe , kusukela e -Arinoni kuze kube seJaboki naseJordani , buyisani lawo mazwe ngokuthula.

USamsoni wathi kumfana owayembambe ngesandla : Ngivumele ukuphatha izinsika indlu emi ngazo ukuba ngencike kuzo.

USamsoni wayesebamba izinsika ezimbili eziphakathi eyayimi ngazo indlu , wencika kuzo, kwenye ngesandla sokunene, kwenye ngesokhohlo.

sithathe abantu abayishumi ekhulwini kuzo zonke izizwe zakwa -Israyeli, nabayikhulu enkulungwaneni , nabayinkulungwane ezinkulungwaneni eziyishumi, ukuba balande ukudla kwabantu , nalapho sebefike eGibeya lakwaBenjamini benze ngokobuwula ababenzile kwa-Israyeli.

Bathi: Yisiphi kuzo izizwe zakwa -Israyeli esingakhuphukelanga kuJehova eMispa na? Bheka, akufikanga muntu ekamu ovela eJabesh i Gileyadi ukuya ebandleni.

Ngamkhetha kuzo zonke izizwe zakwa-Israyeli ukuba abe ngumpristi wami, anikele e -altare lami , ashise impepho , afake ingubo yamahlombe phambi kwami, nganika indlu kayihlo yonke iminikelo yomlilo yabantwana bakwa - Israyeli.

Wahamba iminyaka ngeminyaka ezungeza , waya eBethele , naseGiligali, naseMispa; wahlulela u-Israyeli kuzo zonke lezo zindawo.

Izimbongolo zakho esezinezinsuku ezintathu zilahlekile, ungabeki inhliziyo yakho kuzo , ngokuba zitholiwe . Ngokukabani konke oku nxanelekayo kwa - Israyeli na? Akusikho okwakho nokwendlu yonke kayihlo na?

Wathatha izinkabi ezimbili, wazihlahlela, wazithuma emikhawulweni yonke yakwa-Israyeli ngesandla sezithunywa, ethi: Ongaphumi emva kukaSawule noSamuweli kuyakwenziwa kanjalo kuzo izinkabi zakhe . Ingebhe ngoJehova yehlela phezu kwabantu, baphuma njengomuntu munye.

Bathi kuzo izithunywa ezazifikile : Niyakusho kanje kubantu ba seJabeshi Gileyadi, nithi: Kusasa lapho ilanga libalele niyakukhululwa . Izithunywa zafika, zabatshela abantu baseJabeshi; bathokoza.

Bonke abantu bathi kuSamuweli : Khulekela izinceku zakho kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ukuba singafi, ngokuba senezele kuzo zonke izono zethu ububi bokuzicelela inkosi.

USawule wayesethi kuzo izinceku za khe: Ngiboneleni umuntu owazi ukubetha kahle, nimlethe kimi.

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

UDavide waziphatha ngokuhlakanipha kuzo zonke izindlela zakhe; uJehova wayenaye.

U-Ahimeleki waphendula inkosi , wathi: Ngubani kuzo zonke izinceku zakho othembekile njengoDavide, umkhwenyana wenkosi, nenduna yabalindi bakho, nodumileyo endlini yakho, na?

Inkosi yathi kuzo izigijimi ezazimi ngakuyo : Sondelani, nibulale abapristi bakaJehova, ngokuba nesandla sabo sinaye uDavide nangokuba bazi ukuthi uDavide wabaleka , bengakwambulelanga kimi . Kepha izinceku zenkosi azivumanga ukwelula isandla sazo ukuba zisukele abapristi bakaJehova.

UDavide wathuma izinsizwa eziyishumi ; uDavide wathi kuzo izinsizwa : Khuphukelani eKarmeli, niye kuNabali, nimbingelele egameni lami,

Wathi kuzo izinsizwa : Hambani phambi kwami ; bhekani, ngiyanilandela. Kepha akayitshelanga indoda yakhe uNabali.

UNkulunkulu makenze njalo kuzo izitha zikaDavide , enezele futhi , uma ngishiya ngasekuseni kusasa kukho konke okungokwakhe nokukodwa okungokwesilisa.

Wayesethi uSawule kuzo izinceku zakhe : Ngifuneleni owesifazane onedlozi ukuba ngiye kuye, ngibuze kuye. Izinceku zakhe zathi kuye: Bheka, kukhona owesifazane onedlozi e-Eni Dori.

Zase zithi izikhulu zamaFilisti : Ayini lawa maHeberu na ? U-Akhishi wathi kuzo izikhulu zamaFilisti : Akusiye uDavide inceku kaSawule inkosi yakw a- Israyeli okade enami kulezi zinsuku nakule minyaka na ? Angifumananga lutho kuye selokhu ahlubuka weza kimi kuze kube namuhla.

Wathi-ke u -Ahithofeli ku -Abisalomu: Ngena kuzo izancinza z ikayihlo azishiyile ukuba zilinde indlu ; u-Israyeli wonke uyakuzwa ukuba unengwa nguyihlo, ziqine izandla zabo bonke abanawe.

UJowabe wabuya ekumxosheni u -Abineri; lapho esebuthile bonke abantu , kwasilala kuzo izinceku zi kaDavide abantu abayishumi nesishiyagalolunye no-Asaheli.

Ezindaweni zonke engihambahambe kuzo nakubo bonke abantwana bakwa - Israyeli ngake ngakhuluma yini izwi noma kusiphi isizwe sakwa -Israyeli engasiyaleza ukwalusa abantu bami u -Israyeli ukuthi: Aningakhelanga ngani indlu yemisedari na?

Bammisela u-Abisalomu itende ophahleni lwendlu; u-Abisalomu wangena kuzo izancinza zikayise emehlweni abo bonke abakwa-Israyeli.

Zase zifika izinceku zika -Abisalomu kowesifazane endlini , zathi: Baphi o - Ahimahasi noJonathani na ? Owesifazane wathi kuzo : Bawuwele umfudlana. Sezibafunile zingabatholanga, zabuyela eJerusalema.

Hamba ukhulume kuDavide ngokuthi : U Jehova usho kanje , uthi: Ngiyakubekela izinto ezintathu; khetha enye kuzo ukuba ngikwenzele yona.

Futhi wena uyazi okwenziwayo kimi nguJowabe indodana kaSeruya , nalokho akwenzayo kuzo izinduna ezimbili zezimpi zak wa-Israyeli, o-Abineri indodana kaNeri no-Amasa indodana kaJetheri, owababulala, wachitha igazi lokulwa ngesikhathi sokuthula , wabeka igazi lokulwa kulo ibhande lakhe elalisokhalweni lwakhe nasezicathulweni zakhe ezazisezinyaweni zakhe.

kuzo izindini ezaziphakathi kwezinsiko kwakukhona izingony ama, nezinkabi, namakherubi; kwakunjalo nakuzo izinsiko phezulu ; phansi kwezingonyama nezinkabi kwakukhona imigexo elengayo yezimbali.

Wathi kuzo : Nina ningeluleka ukuba sibuyisele mpenduloni kulaba bantu abakhulume kimi ngokuthi : Yenza ijoka uyihlo alibeka phezu kwethu libe lula, na?

Wayesethi kuzo izithunywa zikaBeni Hadadi: Yitsheleni inkosi yami, inkosi, ukuthi: Konke owathumela ngakho encekwini yakho kuqala ngiyakukwenza , kepha le nto anginakuyenza. Zase zihamba izithunywa, zambuyisela izwi.

Wahamba ngezindlela zonke zika-Asa uyise , kaphambukanga kuzo , enza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova . Kepha izindawo eziphakemeyo azisuswanga; abantu babesanikela , babesashisa impepho ezindaweni eziphakemeyo.

U-Ahaziya wawa eheleni lekame lo lakhe eliphezulu laseSamariya , wagula, wathuma izithunywa , wathi kuzo : Hambani nibuze kuBali Zebubi unkulunkulu wase-Ekroni, uma ngiyakusinda kulokhu kugula kwami.

Kepha ingelosi kaJehova yathi ku -Eliya waseThishibi : Suka ukhuphuke ukuhlangabeza izithu nywa zenkosi yaseSamariya , uthi kuzo : Kungokuba kungekho Nkulunkulu kwa -Israyeli ukuba niye nibuze kuBali Zebubi unkulunkulu wase-Ekroni na?

Izithunywa zabuyela kuye; wathi kuzo: Nibuyeleni na?

Wathi kuzo : Bekungumuntu onjani owakhuphuka ukunihlangabeza , wanitshela lawo mazwi na?

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

Inhliziyo yenkosi yase -Aramu yayiphethwe yitwetwe ngale ndaba , yabiza izinceku zayo , yathi kuzo : Ningengitshele yini ukuthi ngobani abakithi abavuma inkosi yakwa-Israyeli na?

UJehu waphumela ezincekwini zenkosi yakhe ; enye yathi kuye : Konke kusalungile na? Luzeleni lolo hlanya kuwe na ? Wathi kuzo: Nina niyamazi lowo muntu nakukhulumileyo.

UJehoyada, umpristi, wayala izinduna zamakhulu ezazibekwe phezu kwempi, wathi kuzo : Mkhipheni endlini , nimngenise phakathi kwezinhla ; omlandelayo nimbulale ngenkemba ; ngokuba umpristi wathi : Makangabulawa endlini kaJehova.

Wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova , walandela izono zikaJerobowamu , indodana kaNebati, onisa ngazo u-Israyeli, kasukanga kuzo.

Nokho abasukanga ezonweni zendlu kaJerobowamu onisa ngazo u-Israyeli, kepha bahamba kuzo; naye u-Ashera wasala eSamariya.

Wenza okubi emehlwe ni kaJehova , kasukanga kuzo zonke izono zikaJerobowamu indodana kaNebati onisa ngazo u -Israyeli, kodwa wahamba kuzo.

Inkosi u -Ahazi yanquma izindini zezinqe , yasusa kuzo umcengezi wokugeza, yehlisa ulwandle ezinkabini zethusi ezaziphansi kwawo , yawubeka endaweni egandayiwe ngamatshe.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bahamba ezonweni zonke zikaJerobowamu azenzayo, abasukanga kuzo,

u-Isaya wathi kuzo : Niyakusho kanje enkosini yenu , nithi: U sho kanje uJehova, uthi: Ungesabi lawo mazwi owezwileyo , izinceku zenkosi yase - Asiriya ezingithuke ngawo.

Wahamba ngezindlela zonke uyise ahamba ngazo , wakhonza izithombe azikhonzayo uyise, wakhuleka kuzo;

Amphanga, athatha ikhanda lakhe nezikhali zakhe , akuthuma ezweni lamaFilisti nxazonke ukukumemezela kuzo izithombe zawo nakubantu.

Ezindaweni zonke engihambahambe kuzo naye wonke u -Israyeli ngake ngakhuluma yini izwi nakoyedwa wabahluleli bakwa -Israyeli engabayala ukuba baluse abantu bami , ngathi: Aningakhelanga ngani indlu yemisedari na?

Hamba ukhulume kuDavide n gokuthi: U Jehova usho kanje , uthi: Ngiyakubekela izinto ezintathu; khetha enye kuzo ukuba ngikwenzele yona.

UJehova Sebawoti wathi ezindlebeni zami: Impela izindlu eziningi ziyakuba yincithakalo, nezinkulu nezinhle zingabi namuntu ohlala kuzo.

Izingalo zakhe ziyizindilinga zegolide , okufakwe kuzo amakrisolithe ; isidumbu sakhe sinjengokwenziwe ngophondo lwendlovu , sembesiwe ngamasafire.

Ngalokho ukolweni, nebhali, namafutha, newayini, inkosi yami ekhulume ngakho, mayikuthume kuzo izinceku zayo.

Wathi kuzo : Nina niluleka ukuba sibuyis e mpenduloni kulaba bantu abakhulume kimi ngokuthi : Yenza ijoka uyihlo alibeka phezu kwethu libe lula, na?

Waziqinisa izinqaba, wabeka izinduna kuzo, nokudla, namafutha, newayini.

Bheka, u-Amariya umpristi omkhulu uphezu kwenu kuzo zonke izindaba zikaJehova, noZebadiya indodana ka -Ishmayeli, umbusi wendlu yakwaJuda , kuzo zonke izindaba zenkosi ; namaLevi ayakuba yizinduna ngaphambi kwenu. Yibani namandla ekwenzeni kwenu, uJehova uyakuba nabalungileyo.

UJehoyada wayesezikhipha izinduna zamakhulu ezazibekwe phezu kwempi, wathi kuzo : Mkhipheni endlini , nimngenise phakathi kwezinhla; omlandelayo nimbulale ngenkemba ; ngokuba umpristi wathi : Ningambulali endlini kaJehova.

Umkhuleko wakhe, nokunxuswa kukaNkulunkulu nguye, nazo zonke izono zakhe, nazo zonke iziphambeko zakhe , nezindawo akha kuzo izindawo eziphakemeyo, amisa kuzo o-Ashera nezithombe ezibaziweyo, engakazithobi, bheka, lokho kulotshiwe ezindabeni zikaHozayi.

Kepha oZerubabele noJeshuwa nensali yezinhloko zawoyise bakwa -Israyeli bathi kuzo: Aninandaba nathi yokwakhela uNkulunkulu wethu indlu , kepha thina sodwa siyakumakhela uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli njengokusiyala kwenkosi uKoresi, inkosi yasePheresiya.

Lapho kufika isikhathi sezintombi ngezintombi sokuba zingene enkosini u - Ahashiveroshi emva kokuba kwenziwe kuzo njengomthetho wabesifazane izinyanga eziyishumi nambili ngokuba zagcwalis wa kanjalo izinsuku zokuqholwa kwazo , izinyanga eziyisithupha ngamafutha emure nezinyanga eziyisithupha ngamakha nangezinto zokuqhola abesifazane

Kuzo zonke izifunda lapho kwafika khona izwi lenkosi nomthetho wayo , kwaba khona ukulila okukhulu phakathi kwabaJuda , nokuzila ukudla nokukhala ngezinyembezi , nokulila; abaningi balala phansi bembethe izindwangu zamasaka nomlotha. U-Esteri uyabikelwa indaba. Impendulo yakhe

zona ezaphiwa zodwa izwe, kungadabulanga kuzo umfokazi ngokuthi:

Amazinyane azo aqina , akhulela endle; ayahamba, angabe esabuyela kuzo futhi.

kubo ababi abangilimazayo, kuzo izitha zokuphila kwami ezingihaqileyo.

Nkulunkulu, hlenga u-Israyeli kuzo zonke izinkathazo zakhe.

Nasi isihlupheki esakhala , uJehova wezwa , wasikhulula kuzo zonke izinhlupheko zaso.

Labo bayakhala, uJehova uyezwa; uyabakhulula kuzo zonke izinhlupheko zabo.

Ziningi izinhlupheko zolungileyo, kepha uJehova uyamkhulula kuzo zonke.

Ngisindise kuzo iziphambeko zami, ungangenzi isithuko sesiwula.

Uyakubongwa yizulu nomhlaba, yizilwandle nakho konke okuphila kuzo.

Bazinikile izidumbu zezinceku zakh o zibe ngukudla kwezinyoni zezulu , inyama yabakwesabayo kuzo izilo zomhlaba.

Izenzo zakho mazibonakale kuzo izinceku zakho , nenkazimulo yakho kubantwana bazo.

Bakhuphukela ezulwini , babuye behlela kuzo izintwa ; umphefumulo wancibilika ngosizi.

Amehlo akho angibona ngiseyihlule ; zonke izinsuku zami zalotshwa encwadini yakho, zanqunywa, lungakafiki nolulodwa kuzo.

Isifiso esigcwalisiweyo simnandi emphefumulweni , kepha ukudeda ebubini kuyisinengiso kuzo iziwula.

Uyakuba ngokungcwele, futhi abe yitshe lokukhubekisa, nedwala lokuwisa kuzo izindlu zombili zakwa-Israyeli, abe lugibe nesihibe kwabakhileyo eJerusalema.

Emanzini amaningi imbewu yaseSihor i nokuvuna kweNayile kwakuyinzuzo yalo; laliyindawo yokuthenga kuzo izizwe.

Kuzo zonke izintaba eziphakemeyo nakuwo onke amagquma amade kuyakuba khona imifula nemifudlana yamanzi ngosuku lokuhlaba okukhulu, lapho kuyakuwa imibhoshongo.

Emhlabathini wabantu bami kuyakumila amakhakhasi nameva, yebo, kuzo zonke izindlu zokujabula emzini ojabulayo,

Ngalokho ake uvumelane nenkosi yami , inkosi yase-Asiriya, ngiyakukunika amahhashi ayizinkulungwane ezimbili, uma ungabeka izinkweli kuzo.

u-Isaya wathi kuzo : Niyakusho kanje enkosini yenu , nithi: U sho kanje uJehova, uthi: Ungesabi lawo mazwi owezwileyo, izinceku zenkosi yase - Asiriya ezingithuke ngawo.

Mhubeleni uJehova ihubo elisha , nodumo lwakhe , kusukela emikhawulweni yomhlaba , nina enehlela elwandle nakho konke okukulo , nina ziqhingi nabakhileyo kuzo.

Mina ngimvusile lona ngokulunga; ngiyakuhlelemba zonke izindlela zakhe; yena uyakuwakha umuzi wami , avumele abathunjwa bami ukuba bahambe , kungabi ngenkokhelo nangesipho, usho uJehova Sebawoti. U-Israyeli ungufakazi kuzo izizwe zonke

Njengokwenza kwabo, kanjalo uyakubaphindisela: ukufutheka kuzo izitha zakhe, nokwenza kwabo kwabamelene naye, abuyisele eziqhingini izenzo zazo.

Bayakwakha izindlu , bahlale kuzo ; bayakutshala izivini , badle izithelo zazo.

UJehova wathi kimi emihleni kaJosiya inkosi : Ubonile okwenziwe ngu - Israyeli ohlehlayo na ? Ukhuphukele kuzo zonke izintaba eziphakemeyo naphansi kwayo yonke imithi eluhlaza, wafeba khona.

Ngalokho usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Bheka, ngiyakubekela laba bantu izikhubekiso, oyise namadodana bakhubeke kanyekanye kuzo, umakhelwane abhubhe kanye nomngane wakhe.

Bonke abantu bayiziphukuphuku , abanakwazi; bonke abakhandi bajabhiswa nezithombe zabo ezibaziweyo , ngokuba izithombe zabo ezibunjiweyo zingamanga, nomoya awukho kuzo.

Bheka, ngiyakuthumela kubadobi abaningi , usho uJehova , babadobe; besengithumela kubazingeli abaningi , babazingele kuzo zonke izintaba , nakuwo onke amagquma, nakuyo imifantu yeziwa.

Ngiyakubenza babe yingebhe nokubi emibusweni yonke yomhlaba , babe yihlazo nesaga, isifenqo nesiqalekiso ezindaweni zonke engiyakubaxoshela kuzo.

Ngokuba washo kanje uJehova uNkulunk ulu ka -Israyeli kimi , wathi: Thatha le ndebe yewayini lokufutheka esandleni sami , uphuzise kuyo zonke izizwe engikuthuma kuzo.

Ngase ngiyithatha indebe esandleni sikaJehova, ngaziphuzisa zonke izizwe uJehova angithuma kuzo:

Wayesesho uJeremiya kuzo zonke izikhulu nakubo bonke abantu , ethi: UJehova wan githuma ukuprofetha ngale ndlu nangalo muzi onke amazwi eniwezwileyo.

Yakhani izindlu, nihlale kuzo; tshalani amasimu, nidle izithelo zawo;

Ngiyakubalandela ngenkemba , nangendlala, nangesifo, ngibenze babe yingebhe emibusweni yonke yomhlaba , babe yisiqalekiso , nesimangaliso, nento encimfelwayo, nehlazo ezizweni zonke engibaxoshele kuzo,

Ngokuba ngalokho uthumile kithi eBabele , wathi: Kuse kude ; yakhani izindlu, nihlale kuzo; tshalani amasimu, nidle izithelo zawo.

Ngokuba mina nginawe , usho uJehova , U kuba ngikusindise , ngokuba ngiyakuqeda ngokupheleley o zonke izizwe engikuhlakazele kuzo , kepha wena angiyikukuqeda , kodwa ngiyakukulay a ngokwahlulela, ngingakwenzi ube ngongenacala.

singakhi izindlu ukuba sihlale kuzo ; futhi isivini , nensimu, nembewu asinakho.

Ngalokho zonke izikhulu zathuma uJehudi indodana kaNethaniya kaShelemiya kaKushi kuBaruki , zathi: Umqulu owufundileyo ezindlebeni zabantu wuthathe ngesandla sakho , uze nawo . UBaruki indodana kaNeriya wawuthatha umqulu ngesandla sakhe, weza kuzo.

UBaruki wathi kuzo : Wawaphumisela onke lawa mazwi kimi ngomlomo wakhe, ngawaloba encwadini ngoyinki.

bonke abaJuda babuya ezindaweni zonke ababexoshelwe kuzo , bafika ezweni lakwaJuda kuGedaliya eMispa, babutha kakhulu iwayini nezithelo.

Kepha uJohanani ind odana kaKhareya nazo zonke izinduna zempi bayithatha yonke insali yakwaJuda eyayibuye ezizweni zonke eyayixoshelwe kuzo ukuba igogobale ezweni lakwaJuda,

Ungesabi wena Jakobe , nceku yami , usho uJehova , ngokuba nginawe , ngokuba ngiyakuqeda ngokupheleley o zonke izizwe engikuxoshele kuzo , kepha wena angiyikukuqeda ; kodwa ngiyakukulaya ngokwahlulela , ngingakwenzi ube ngongenacala.

Bonke abantu bayiziphukuphuku , abanakwazi, bonke abakhandi bajabhiswa nezithombe zabo ezibaziweyo , ngokuba izithombe zabo ezibunjiweyo zingamanga, nomoya awukho kuzo.

Mabufike bonke ububi bazo ebusweni bakho , wenze kuzo njengokwenza kwakho kim i ngenxa yazo zonke iziphambeko zami , ngokuba ukububula kwami kukhulu, nenhliziyo idangele.

Wathi uJehova : Kanjalo nabantwana bakwa -Israyeli bayakusidla isinkwa sabo singcolile phakathi kwezizwe engiyakubaxoshela kuzo.

Kuyakuba yihlazo , nesaga, nesifundiso, nesimangaliso kuzo izizwe ezikuhaqayo, lapho ngenza izahlulelo phakathi kwakho ngentukuthelo nangokufutheka nangezijeziso ezifuthayo. Mina Jehova ngikhulumile.

Nina zintaba zakwa -Israyeli, yizwani izwi leNkosi uJehova kuzo izintaba nakuwo amagquma , kuyo imifula yamanzi nakuzo izigodi , lithi: Bhekani, ngiyakwehlisela phezu kwenu inkemba , ngichithe izindawo zenu eziphakemeyo.

Kuzo zonke izindawo zokuhlala kwenu imizi iyakuchithwa , izindawo eziphakemeyo zibe yincithakalo ukuba kuchithwe ama -altare enu, achitheke, kwaphulwe izithombe zenu ziphele , ama-altare enu empepho abhidlizwe , imisebenzi yenu ihlangulwe.

Abaphephayo benu bay akungikhumbula phakathi kwezizwe abayakuthunjelwa kuzo , lapho ngaphula izinhliziyo zabo eziphingayo , ezichezukile kimi , namehlo abo alandela izithombe zabo ukuba baphinge nazo, banengwe emehlweni abo ngokubi abakwenzileyo ezinengisweni zabo zonke.

Niyakwazi ukuthi nginguJehova , lapho ababuleweyo babo beyakuba phakathi kwezithombe zabo nxa zonke zama-altare abo kuwo onke amagquma aphakemeyo, nakuzo zonke iziqongo zezintaba , naphansi kwayo yonke imithi eluhlaza, naphansi kwawo onke ama -oki adumbileyo, izindawo lapho bebenikela khona ngephunga elimnandi kuzo zonke izithombe zabo.

Ngiyakuselulela kubo isandla sami, ngenze izwe libe yincithakalo nokuyize kunehlane laseDibila kuzo zonke izindawo zabo zokuhlala , bazi ukuthi nginguJehova.

Wathatha ezingu tsheni zakho , wazenzela izindawo eziphakemeyo ezingamagqabhagqabha, wafeba kuzo, okungazange kwenzeke nokungasoze kwenziwa.

ukuba ubulale abantwana bami , unikele ngabo kuzo ngokubadabulisa emlilweni, na?

Kuzo zonke izi nengiso zakho nakubo bonke ubufebe bakho awukhumbulanga izinsuku zobusha bakho , lapho wawunqunu , wawuze, wangqasha egazini lakho.

Wakha iqhugwane lakho ezingosini zezitaladi , wenza indawo yakho ephakemeyo kuzo zonke izigcawu, ungaba nganjengezifebe ngokudelela inkokhelo,

Awuhambanga ngezindlela zabo , awenzanga ngezinengiso zabo , kepha njengokuba lokho kwakuyinto encane nje , wonakala kuzo zonke izindlela zakho kunabo.

Kepha uma omubi ebuya kuzo zonke izono zakhe azenzileyo, agcine zonke izimiso zami, enze ukwahlulela nokulunga, uyakuphila nokuphila; kayikufa.

Isiprofetho sezwi likaJehova phezu kwezwe lakwaHadiraki; nalo iDamaseku liyakuba yindawo yokuhlala kwaso , ngokuba uJehova uneso kubantu , ikakhulu kuzo zonke izizwe zakwa-Israyeli,

Izimvu zami zazulazula kuzo zonke izintaba nakuwo onke amagquma aphakemeyo, yebo, izimvu zami zazihlakazekele ebusweni bonke bomhlaba , akwabakho ozifunayo nozicingayo.

Njengomalusi efuna umhlambi wakhe mhla ephakathi kwezimvu zakhe ezilahlekileyo, kanjalo ngiyakufuna izimvu zami , ngizophule kuzo zonke izindawo ezihlakazekele kuzo ngosuku lwamafu nolobumnyama.

Ngalokho isho kanje iNkosi uJehova kuzo , ithi: Bhekani, mina ngiyakwahlulela phakathi kwezimvu ezikhulupheleyo nezimvu ezondileyo.

ngalokho, zintaba zakwa-Israyeli, zwanini izwi leNkosi uJehova lokuthi: Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova kuzo izintaba nakuwo amagquma, kuyo imifula nakuzo izigodi, nakuzo izi ndawo ezichithekileyo , nakuyo imizi eshiyiweyo , osekuyimpango nenhlekiso yezizwe eziseleyo ezikhona nxazonke,

ngalokho profetha ngezwe lakwa -Israyeli, uthi kuzo izintaba nakuwo amagquma, kuyo imifula nakuzo izigodi : Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova , ithi: Bhekani, ngikhulume ngomhawu wami nangokufutheka kwami , ngokuba nithwele ihlazo labezizwe.

Izinduku oloba kuzo ziyakuba sesandleni sakho phambi kwamehlo abo.

Ngiyakumbizela inkemba kuzo zonke izintaba zami , isho iNkosi uJehova , inkemba yalowo nalowo imelane nomfowabo.

Ngiyakubeka inkazimulo yami phakathi kwezizwe , zonke izizwe zibone isahlulelo sami engisenzileyo, nesandla sami engisibeke kuzo.

Kwakwenziwe kuzo , ezivalweni zethempeli , amakherubi namasundu njengokwenziwe ezindongeni ; kwakukhona isivikelo somuthi phezu kompheme ngaphandle.

Wathi kimi: Nazi izindlu zokuphekela izikhonzi zendlu eziyakuphekela kuzo imihlatshelo yabantu.

Khona uDaniyeli ogama lakhe lalinguBeliteshasari wamangala isikhashana , imicabango yakhe ya mesabisa. Inkosi yathatha yathi : Beliteshasari, iphupho nencazo makungakwesabisi . UBeliteshasari waphendula wathi : Nkosi, iphupho malibe kwabakuzondayo, nencazo yalo kuzo izitha zakho.

Kwathi isisondele emphandwini k uDaniyeli, yamemeza ngezwi elikhalayo ; inkosi yakhuluma , yathi kuDaniyeli : Daniyeli, wena nceku kaNkulunkulu ophilayo, uNkulunkulu wakho omkhonza njalo angakukhulula kuzo izingonyama na?

Emva kwalokho ngabona emibonweni ebusuku ; bheka, isilo sesine , esesabekayo, sinamandla, siqinile kakhulu; sasinamazinyo amakhulu ensimbi, sadla, saphula, sanyathela okuseleyo ngezinyawo zaso ; sahlukile kuzo zonke izilo ezazingaphambi kwaso; sasinezimpondo eziyishumi.

Ngase ngifuna ukwazi iqiniso ngesilo sesi ne esahlukile kuzo zonke zazo , esesabekayo kakhulu, esimazinyo aso ayeyinsimbi, nezinzipho zaso ziyithusi, esasidla, saphula, sanyathela okuseleyo ngezinyawo;

Ungajabuli, Israyeli, kube nguku thokoza njengokwabezizwe , ngokuba umukile kuNkulunkulu wakho ngokufeba , wathanda inkokhelo kuzo zonke izibuya zamabele.

Izindawo eziphakemeyo zase -Aveni, isono sakwa -Israyeli, ziyakuchithwa; ameva namakhakhasi ayakukhuphukela ema -altare abo ; bayakuthi kuzo izintaba: Sisibekeleni, nakuwo amagquma: Welani phezu kwethu.

Mina nganinika ukuhlanzeka kwa mazinyo emizini yenu yonk e nokuswela isinkwa kuzo zonke izindawo zenu, kepha anibuyelanga kimi, usho uJehova.

Ngalokho, ngokuba ninyathela abampofu, namukele kuye isipho samabele, noma nakha izindlu ngamatshe abaziwey o aniyikuhlala kuzo , nokuba nitshala izivini ezinhle aniyikuphuza iwayini lazo.

Ngiyakwenza impindiselo ngentukuthelo nangokufuthek a kuzo izizwe ezingalalelanga.

Ingcebo yabo iyakuba yimpango , nezindlu zabo incithakalo ; bayakwakha izindlu, kepha abayikuhlala kuzo , batshale izivini , bangaliphuzi kodwa iwayini lazo.

ngigumbuqele isihlalo sobukhosi semibuso , ngichithe amandla emibuso yabezizwe, ngigumbuqele izinqola nabakhwela kuzo ; namahhashi ayakuwa nezinkweli zawo, kube yileyo naleyo ngenkemba yomfowabo.

Ngase ngithi kuzo: Uma kukuhle emehlweni enu, ngipheni inkokhelo yami, kepha uma kungenjalo, yekani. Zase zilinganisela inkokhelo yami izinhlamvu ezingamashumi amathathu zesiliva.

Kuyakuthi ngalolo suku ngenze iJerusalema libe yitshe elisindayo kuzo zonke izizwe; zonke ezizithwesa lona ziyakusikwa nokusikwa ; zonke izizwe zomhlaba ziyakulihlanganyela.

Khona uHerode, ezibizile izazi ngasese, wabuzisisa kuzo isikhathi inkanyezi ebonakele ngaso,

Khona uHerode , esebonile ukuthi izazi zimphambile , wathukuthela kakhulu, wathumela wabulala bonke abantwana besilisa baseBetlehema nasendaweni yonke yangakhona , abaminyaka mibili nangaphansi njengesikhathi abesibuzisisile kuzo izazi.

Esengenile endlini , izimpumputhe zeza kuye . UJesu wathi kuzo : Niyakholwa yini ukuthi ngingakwenza lokhu na? Zathi kuye: Yebo, Nkosi.

Wathi kuzo : Lokhu kwenziwe ngumuntu oyisitha . Izisebenzi zathi kuye : Uthanda ukuba siye ukulubutha na?

Nithini na ? Uma umuntu enezimvu eziyikhulu , kuduke enye kuzo , akazishiyi ezingamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nesishiyagalolunye ezintabeni, ahambe ayofuna edukileyo, na?

Kepha eziyisihlanu kuzo zaziyiziwula, neziyisihlanu zazihlakaniphile.

Bamncenga bathi: Sithumele ezingulubeni ukuba singene kuzo.

Kwanda udumo ngaye kuzo zonke izindawo zangakhona.

Sekusile, waphuma waya endaweni eyihlane; izixuku zamfuna, zaze zafika kuye impela, zambamba ukuba angamuki kuzo.

Kepha wathi kuzo : Nakweminye imizi ngimelwe ukushumayela ivangeli lombuso kaNkulunkulu, ngokuba ngithunyelwe lokho.

Kwakukhona lapho umhlambi wezingulube eziningi ziklabile entabeni ; amncenga ukuba awavumele angene kuzo; wawavumela.

Kepha izixuku sezazi zamlandela ; wazithakazela, wakhuluma kuzo ngombuso kaNkulunkulu, wabaphulukisa abaswela ukuphulukiswa. UJesu usuthisa amadoda ayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu (Math. 14:13; Mark. 6:30; Joh. 6:1)

Emva kwalokho iNkosi yamisa abanye abangamashumi ayisikhombisa , yabathumela ngababili phambi kwayo emizini nasezindaweni zonke ebizakuya kuzo yona.

UJesu wathatha , wathi kuzo izazimthetho nabaFarisi : Kuvunyelwe yini ukuphulukisa ngesabatha noma qha?

Kwakuhamba naye izixuku eziningi; waphenduka, wathi kuzo:

Ngumuphi umuntu kini onezimvu eziyikhulu , alahlekelwe ngenye kuzo , angazishiyi ezingamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nesishiyagalolunye ehlane , aye kwelahlekileyo, aze ayithole, na?

Wayesebiza izinceku zakhe eziyishumi , wazinika omina abayishumi, wathi kuzo: Hwebani ngabo, ngize ngibuye.

Wayesethi kuzo: Yikhani manje, niyise kumphathi wokudla; zayisa-ke.

Zafika-ke izikhonzi kubapristi abakhulu nakubaFarisi . Bathi kuzo : Animlethanga ngani na?

Zona-ke zathi kuye: Mame, ukhalelani na? Wathi kuzo: Bayithathile iNkosi yami, futhi angazi ukuthi bayibekephi.

wamkhipha kuzo zonke izinhlupheko zakhe , wamupha umusa nokuhlakanipha phambi kukaFaro inkosi yaseGibithe ; yena wammisa abe ngumbusi eGibithe nakuyo yonke indlu yakhe.

Kepha uPawulu wathi kuzo : Basishayile phambi kwabantu singalahlwanga cala, thina singabantu abangamaRoma , basiphonsa etilongweni ; manje basikhipha ngasese na? Qhabo, akuze bona, basikhiphe.

Kepha abathile kuzo izazi zama-Epikhuru nezamaStoyiku baphikisana naye; abanye bathi : Leli p hoshophosho lithini na ? Abanye bathi : Kungathi ungomemezela onkulunkulu abangaziwayo , ngokuba wayeshumayela ivangeli ngoJesu nangokuvuka kwabafileyo.

Niyazi ukuthi nisengabezizwe naholekela kuzo izithombe eziyizimungulu , nakuba naholwa kanjalo.

Kepha yena ofundiswa izwi makahlanganyele nalowo omfundisayo kuzo zonke izinto ezinhle.

enanikade nihamba kuzo ngokwendlela yaleli zwe , ngokombusi wamandla omkhathi, ongumoya osasebenza kubantwana bokungalaleli,

Nani boyise , ningabathukuthelisi abantwana benu , kodwa nibondle ngokuyala nangokuqondisa kweNkosi. Iziluleko kuzo izinceku namakhosi

Nani makhosi , yenzani okunjalo kuzo , niyeke ukusongela, nazi ukuthi neyazo neyenu iNkosi isezulwini nokuthi ukukhetha umuntu akukho kuye. Izikhali zamaKristu

kuze kuthi thina ngokwethu sizincome ngani emabandleni kaNkulunkulu ngenxa yokukhuthazela kwenu nokukholwa ekuzingelweni kwenu konke nasezinhluphekweni enibekezela kuzo,

Likholekile leli zwi , lifanele impela ukwamukelwa ukuthi uKristu Jesu weza ezweni ukusindisa izoni, engingesikhulu kuzo;

Nakekela lezo zinto, ume kuzo, ukuze ukuqhubeka kwakho kuqhame kubo bonke.

UJakobe, inceku kaNkulunkulu neyeNkosi uJesu Kristu , uyakhonza kuzo izizwe eziyishumi nambili ezihlakazekileyo. Ukuyala ngezilingo

njengalokhu nasezincwadini zonke ekhuluma kuzo ngalezo zinto, okukhona kuzo okunye okulukhuni ukuzwisiswa , okuthi abangafundile nabangaqinile bakuhlanekezela, njengalokhu benze njalo nangezinye izincwadi , kube ngukubhujiswa kwabo.

Nezidalwa ezine , yileso naleso kuzo , zinamaphiko ayisithupha; emaceleni onke nangaphakathi zigcwele amehlo ; kazikhawuli imini nobusuku ukuthi : Ingcwele, ingcwele, ingcwele, iNkosi uNkulunkulu uMninimandla onke , owayekhona nokhona nozayo.

Ngase ngibona enye ingelosi yenyuka empumalanga , inophawu lukaNkulunkulu ophilayo, yamemeza ngezwi elikhulu kuzo izingelosi ezine ezanikwa ukuba ziwone umhlaba nolwandle,

Emva kwalokho ngabona , bheka-ke, isixuku esikhulu ebesingenakubalwa muntu, sivela kuzo zonke izizwe , nemindeni, nabantu, nezilimi, simi phambi kwesihlalo sobukhosi naphambi kweWundlu , sembethe izingubo ezinde ezimhlophe, siphethe amahlamvu esundu ngezandla zaso,

Ngase ngizwa izwi elikhulu livela ethempelini , lithi kuzo izingelosi eziyisikhombisa: Hambani nithululele em hlabeni izitsha eziyisikhombisa zolaka lukaNkulunkulu.

Ngase ngibona izihla lo zobukhosi ; bahlala kuzo , banikwa ukwahlulela ; ngabona nemiphefumulo yababenqunywe amakhanda ngenxa yokufakaza ngoJesu nangenxa yezwi likaNkulunkulu , nalabo abangakhulekanga kuso isilo nomfanekiso waso , nabangamukelanga uphawu lwesilo ebunzini labo nasesandleni sabo ; baphila, babusa kanye noKristu iminyaka eyinkulungwane.
