Base bethi kuye abafowabo : Impela uyakuba yinkosi yethu , usibuse na ? Bamzonda kakhulu kunakuqala ngenxa yamaphupho akhe namazwi akhe.

USawule wayesethi kuSamuweli : Ngonile, ngokuba ngeqile isiyalezo sikaJehova namazwi akho, lokhu ngesaba abantu, ngalalela izwi labo.

Manje, Nkosi Jehova , wena unguNkulunkulu, namazwi akho ayiq iniso, uthembisile inceku yakho lokhu okuhle;

Kwakuhlala eBethele umprofethi omdala. Amadodana akhe afika amtshela yonke imisebenzi lowo muntu kaNkulunkulu abeyenzile ngalolo suku eBethele, namazwi abewakhulumile enkosini. Uyise esetsheliwe,

Kepha enkosini yakwaJuda eyanithuma ukubuza kuJehova niyakusho kuyo kanje, nithi: Usho kanje uJehova uNkulu nkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Maqondana namazwi owezwileyo,

Ngokuba lapho kukhona amaphupho amaningi, kukhona nokuyize namazwi amaningi, kepha wena yesaba uNkulunkulu.

Ezinye izindaba zika -Abiya, nezindlela zakhe, namazwi akhe , kulotshiwe esichasiselweni somprofethi u-Ido.

Ezinye izindaba zikaManase , nomkhuleko wakhe kuNkulunkulu wakhe , namazwi ababoni ababewakhuluma kuye egameni likaJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, bheka, kulotshiwe ezindabeni zamakhosi akwa-Israyeli.

Kepha enkosini yakwaJuda eyanithuma ukubuza kuJehova niyakusho k uyo kanje, nithi: Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Maqondana namazwi owezwileyo,

Ngase ngithi : Ukuhlakanipha kuhle kunamandla , kepha ukuhlakanipha kompofu kuyadelelwa, namazwi akhe awezwakali.

Isilinganiso sawo siphumele emhlabeni wonk e namazwi awo emkhawulweni womhlaba. Ulimisele ilanga itende kulo.

Nkulunkulu wami , Nkulunkulu wami , ungishiyeleni na ? Ukude namazwi okubububula kwami nokusindiswa kwami.

Wathuma ubumnyama , wenza kwaba mnyama , kepha baphambana namazwi akhe.

ngokuba babephambene namazwi kaNkulunkulu , babesidelele isiluleko soPhezukonke.

ukuba aqonde izaga nezimfihlakalo , namazwi abahlakaniphileyo nezimfumbe zabo.

Mina-ke, lokhu kuyisivumelwano sami nabo, usho uJehova, sokuthi umoya wami ophezu kwakho namazwi ami engiwabeke emlonyeni wakho akuyikusuka emlonyeni wakho , nasemlonyeni wenzalo yakho , nasemlonyeni wenzalo yenzalo yakho, usho uJehova, kusukela manje kuze kube phakade.

Lase lifika izwi likaJehova kuJeremiya , inkosi isishisile umqulu namazwi awaloba uBaruki, ewathatha emlonyeni kaJeremiya, lithi:

Wena ndodana yomuntu , ungabesabi, ungesabi namazwi abo , noma amakhakhasi nameva kukuwe , uhlezi phakathi kwawofezela ; ungawesabi amazwi a bo, ungapheli am andla ngobuso babo , ngokuba bayindlu ehlubukayo.

UZerubabele indodana kaSheyali tiyeli noJoshuwa indodana kaJehosadaki , umpristi omkhulu , nayo yonke insali yabantu balalela izwi likaJehova uNkulunkulu wabo namazwi kaHagayi umprofethi , njengokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wabo emthumile; abantu besaba phambi kukaJehova.

Benza izi nhliziyo zabo zaba yidayimani , funa bezwe umthetho namazwi ayewathume uJehova Sebawoti ngoMoya wakhe ngesandla sabaprofethi bokuqala; ngalokho kwavela intukuthelo enkulu ivela kuJehova Sebawoti.

Uma nihlala kimi , namazwi ami ehlala kini , niyakucela enikuthandayo , nikwenzelwe.

Namazwi abaprofethi ayavum elana nalokho , njengalokho kulotshiwe ukuthi:

Ngokuba abakhileyo eJerusalema nababusi babo abamazanga yena , namazwi abaprofethi afundwa amasaba tha ngamasabatha bawagcwalisa ngokumlahla;

Kepha njengalokho nivamile kukho konke : ukukholwa, namazwi, nokwazi, nokukhuthala konke, nothando enisithanda ngalo , manivame nakuwo lowo msebenzi womusa.

Ngokuba asizange sibe namazwi okuthopha, njengokuba nazi; asizange futhi sibe nobuqili bokufisa, uNkulunkulu ungufakazi,

umxwaye nawe, ngokuba wamelana kakhulu namazwi ethu.

Nasesihlalweni sobukhosi kwaphuma imibani , namazwi, nokuduma; nezibani zomlilo eziyisikhombisa zavutha phambi kwesihlalo sobukhosi , ezingoMoya abayisikhombisa bakaNkulunkulu;

Ingelosi yayisithabatha isitsha sempepho , yasigcwalisa ngomlilo wase - altare, yasiphonsa emhlabeni ; kwase kuba khona ukuduma , namazwi, nemibani, nokuzamazama komhlaba. Izingelosi eziyisikhombisa zimi phambi kukaNkulunkulu ziphethe amacilongo. Ezine zokuqala ziyabetha amacilongo

Kwase kuvulwa ithempeli likaNkulunkulu elisezulwini , kwabonakala umphongolo wesivumelwano sakhe ethempelini lakhe ; kwase kuba khona imibani, namazwi, nokuduma, nokuzamazama komhlaba , nesichotho esikhulu.

Kwase kuba khona imibani , namazwi, nokuduma, kwaba khona nokuzamazama okukhulu komhlaba okungazange kube khona okunjalo , selokhu kwaba khona abantu emhlabeni , ukuzamazama komhlaba okukhulu kangaka.
