U-Adamu wabuye wamazi umkakhe ; wazala indodana, wamqamba igama lokuthi uSeti , ethi: UNkulunkulu ungibekele enye inzalo esikhundleni sika - Abela, njengokuba uKayini umbulele.

Wahlala ehlane lasePharanu ; unina wamtha thela umfazi ezweni laseGibithe. Isivumelwano sika-Abrahama no-Abimeleki

Emva kwalokho kwaphuma umfowabo , isandla sakhe sibambelele esithendeni sika -Esawu; igama lakhe labizwa ngokuthi uJakobe ; u-Isaka wayeneminyaka engamashumi ayisithupha ekuzalweni kwabo.

Wasuka lapho, wemba omunye umthombo; abaphikisananga ngawo; wabiza igama lawo ngokuthi iRehoboti , wathi: Ngokuba uJehova usenzele indawo ; siyakwanda ezweni. Isithembiso sika-Abrahama siyaphindwa ku-Isaka

Wakha khona i -altare, wakhuleka egameni likaJehova , wamisa lapho itende lakhe; izinceku zika-Isaka zemba umthombo khona. Isivumelwano sika-Isaka no-Abimeleki

akuphe isibusiso sika-Abrahama, wena nenzalo yakho kanye nawe , udle ifa lezwe lokugogobala kwakho uNkulunkulu amnika lona u-Abrahama.

Ake ungophule esandleni somfowethu, esandleni sika-Esawu, ngokuba mina ngiyamesaba, funa eze angichithe kanye nawonina nabantwana.

Kwakukhona nomprofethikazi , u-Ana, indodakazi kaFanuweli , owesizwe sika-Aseri; wayesekhulile kakhulu , ebehlalile nendoda iminyaka eyisikhombisa emva kobuntombi bakhe,

UThimna wayeyisancinza sika -Elifazi indodana ka -Esawu; wamzalela u - Elifazi u-Amaleki; yilawo angamadodana ka-Ada umka-Esawu.

UJosefa wayesebathatha bobabili , u-Efrayimi ngesokunene , engakwesokhohlo sika -Israyeli, noManase ngesokhohlo , engakwesokunene sika-Israyeli, wabasondeza kuye.

Lokhu kuyimali yetabernakele , itabernakele lobufakazi , njengokubalwa kwayo ngesiyalezo sikaMose , ngokubala kwamaLevi ngesandla sika -Itamari indodana ka-Aroni umpristi.

Leso siyisabelo sika -Aroni nesabelo samadodana akhe seminikelo yomlilo kaJehova mhla ebaletha ukuba bamkhonze uJehova esikhundleni sobupristi,

Ngesiyalezo sika -Aroni nangesamadodana akhe uyakwenziwa wonke umsebenzi wamadodana amaGereshoni emithwalweni yawo yonke nasemisebenzini yawo yonke ; niwamisele yonke imithwalo yawo ezakugcinwa yiwo.

Lowo ungumsebenzi wemindeni yamadodana amaGereshoni e tendeni lokuhlangana; okugcinwa yiwo kube phansi kwesandla sika-Itamari indodana ka-Aroni umpristi.

Lowo ungumsebenzi wemindeni yamadodana kaMerari ngokomsebenzi wabo wonke etendeni lokuhlangana phansi kwesandla sika -Itamari indodana ka-Aroni umpristi.

nezinqola ezine nezinkabi eziyisishiyagalombili wazinika amadodana kaMerari ngomsebenzi wawo phansi kwesandla sika -Itamari indodana ka - Aroni umpristi.

Ngiwanikile amaLevi abe yisipho sika -Aroni nesamadodana akhe esivela kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli ukusebenza umsebenzi wabantwana bakwa - Israyeli etendeni lokuhlangana nokwenzela abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ukubuyisana, ukuze kungabikho sifo phakathi kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, lapho abantwana bakwa-Israyeli besondela endlini engcwele.

Kwathi ekuseni uDavide wamlobela uJowabe incwadi , wayithuma ngesandla sika-Uriya.

abantu abaseleyo wababeka esandleni sika -Abishayi umfowabo, wabahlela ukuba balwe nabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

UJehova ubuyisele phezu kwakho lonke igazi lendlu kaSawule okade ubusa esikhundleni sakhe ; uJehova unikele umbuso esandleni sika -Abisalomu indodana yakho ; bheka, usubhajiwe ebubini bakho , ngokuba ungumuntu wegazi.

Isiluleko sika-Ahithofeli aluleka ngaso ngalezo zinsuku sasinjengokungathi bekubuzwe kuNkulunkulu; zazinjalo iziluleko zika-Ahithofeli kuDavide naku- Abisalomu.

U-Abisalomu nabantu bonke bakwa -Israyeli bathi : Isiluleko sikaHu shayi umArki singcono kunesiluleko sika-Ahithofeli. Ngokuba uJehova wayenqumile ukuba kushafiswe isiluleko esihle sika -Ahithofeli, ukuze uJehova amehlisele u-Abisalomu okubi.

UDavide wamukisa abantu , inxenye yesithathu iphansi kwesandla sikaJowabe, nenxenye yesithathu iphansi kwesandla sika -Abishayi indodana kaSeruya, umfowabo kaJowabe, nenxenye yesithathu iphansi kwesandla sika- Ithayi umGiti. Inkosi yathi kubantu: Nami ngiyakuphuma nokuphuma nani.

U-Abisalomu esekhona wayethathe insika , wazimisela yona esiGod ini seNkosi, ngokuba wathi : Anginandodana yokukhumbuzela igama lami . Wayiqamba insika ngegama lakhe; ithiwa isikhumbuzo sika -Abisalomu kuze kube namuhla.

Lapho ingelosi yelula isandla sayo kulo iJerusalema ukulichitha , uJehova wazisola ngalobo bubi, wathi engelosini eyachitha abantu: Sekwanele; buyisa isandla sakho. Ingelosi kaJehova yayisesibuyeni sika-Arawuna umJebusi.

UDavide wathi kuJehova , lapho eyibona ingelosi eyayibabulala abantu : Bheka, mina ngonile, ngenzile okubi; kepha lezi zimvu zenzeni na ? Isandla sakho masibe phezu kwami naphezu kwendlu kababa. I-altare elisesibuyeni sika-Arawuna

UGadi wafika ngalolo suku kuDavide , wathi kuye : Yenyuka, ummisele uJehova i-altare esibuyeni sika-Arawuna umJebusi.

Inkosi yayisimbeka uBenaya indodana kaJehoyada phezu kwempi esikhundleni sakhe ; uSadoki umpristi inkosi yambeka esikhundleni sika - Abiyathara.

Wamelana no -Israyeli zonke izinsuku zikaSolomoni phezu kokubi akwenzayo uHadadi, wanengwa ngu-Israyeli, wabusa e-Aramu. Isiprofetho sika-Ahiya

Inkosi ayilalelanga abantu , ngokuba kwakuyi siyiba esivela kuJehova , ukuze amise izwi lakhe uJehova alikhulumayo ngesandla sika -Ahiya waseShilo kuJerobowamu indodana kaNebati.

Imbiza yempuphu ayiphelanga, nophiso lwamafutha aluswelanga njengezwi likaJehova alikhulumile ngesandla sika-Eliya.

Wayesethi kuye: Ngoneni ukuba unikele inceku yakho esandleni sika-Ahabi ukungibulala na?

Uyakuchitha indlu ka -Ahabi inkosi yakho ukuba ngiphindisele igazi lezinceku zami abaprofethi negazi lezinceku zonke zikaJehova esandleni sika- Izebeli.

isidumbu sika-Izebeli siyakuba njengomquba ebusweni bomhlaba esiqeshini sezwe laseJizreyeli ukuba bangasho ukuthi: Nangu u-Izebeli.

UJehova wathi kuJehu: Ngenxa yokuba wenze kahle ngokufeza okulungile emehlweni ami , futhi wenze kuyo indlu ka -Ahabi njengakho konke okwakusenhliziyweni yami, amadodana akho ezizukulwane ezine ayakuhlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sika-Israyeli.

Wabeka isithombe esibaziweyo sika -Ashera asenzileyo endlini asho ngayo uJehova kuDavide nakuSolomoni indodana yakhe ukuthi : Kule ndlu naseJerusalema engilikhethile ezizweni zonke zakw a-Israyeli ngiyakubeka igama lami kuze kube phakade;

Amadodana kaKetura , isancinza sika-Abrahama: wazala oZimrani , noJokishani, noMedani, noMidiyani, no-Ishibaki, noShuwa. Amadodana kaJokishani: ngoSheba noDedani.

UDavide namalunga akwa -Israyeli nezinduna zezinkulungwane baya ukuwukhuphula umphongolo wesivumelwano sika Jehova endlini ka -Obede Edomi ngokuthokoza;

Ngalolo suku uDavide wayeseqala ukuhlela ukuba uJ ehova abongwe ngesandla sika-Asafa nabafowabo.

abantu abaseleyo wababeka esandleni sika -Abishayi umfow abo, bazihlela ukulwa nabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

UNkulunkulu wathuma ingelosi eJerusalema ukulichitha ; kwathi lapho isalichitha, uJehova wabuka , wazisola ngalobo bubi , wathi engelosini echithayo: Sekwanele; buyisa isandla sakho . Ingelosi kaJehova yayimi ngasesibuyeni sika-Orinani umJebusi.

UDavide wathi kuNkulunkulu : Akusimi yini owaya leza ukuba abantu babalwe na ? Yimina engonileyo ; ngenze kabi kakhulu, kepha lezi zimvu zenzeni na? Isandla sakho, Jehova Nkulunkulu wami , masibe phezu kwami naphezu kwendlu kababa , singabi phezu kwabantu bakho ukubashaya ngesifo. I-altare elisesibuyeni sika-Orinani

Ingelosi kaJehova yamyala uGadi ukusho kuDavide ukuba uDavide enyuke, amisele uJehova i-altare esibuyeni sika-Orinani umJebusi.

Ngaleso sikhathi lapho uDavide esebonile ukuthi uJehova umphendulile esibuyeni sika-Orinani umJebusi, wahlaba khona.

Lezo zaziyizigaba zabo njengenkonzo yabo ukuba bangene endlini kaJehova njengomthetho ababewunikwe ngesandla sika -Aroni uyise , njengalokho uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ebemyalile.

USolomoni wayeseqala ukwakha indlu kaJehova eJerusalema entabeni yaseMoriya, lapho uJehova abonakala khona kuDavide uyise , nalapho eselungisile khona endaweni kaDavide esibuyeni sika-Orinani umJebusi.

Ezinye izindaba zikaSolomoni , ezokuqala nezokugcina , angithi zilotshiwe ezindabeni zikaNathani umprofethi, nasesiprofethweni sika-Ahiya waseShilo, nasemibonweni ka-Ido umboni ngoJerobowamu indodana kaNebati na?

Inkosi ayibalalelanga abantu , ngokuba kwakuyisiyiba esivela kuNkulunkulu, ukuze uJehova amise izwi lakhe alikhulumayo ngesandla sika-Ahiya waseShilo kuJerobowamu indodana kaNebati.

Lapho u -Asa esezwa lawo mazwi nesiprofetho sika -Azariya ka -Odedi umprofethi, waziqinisa isibindi , wasusa izinengiso ezweni lonke lakwaJuda noBenjamini, nasemizini ayeyithathile ezintabeni zakwa-Efrayimi, walivusa i- altare likaJehova elaliphambi kompheme kaJehova.

Wawamisa amaLevi endlini kaJehova ephethe amasimbali , nezingubhu, namahabu njengesiyalezo sika Davide nesikaGadi umboni wenkosi nesikaNathani ump rofethi, ngokuba isiyalezo sasingesikaJehova ngesandla sabaprofethi bakhe.

Lapho sesifikile isikhathi sika -Esteri, indodakazi ka -Abihayili, uyisekazi kaMoridekayi omthathe ukuba abe yindodakazi yakhe sokuba angene enkosini, akafunanga lutho , kuphela lokho akushoyo uHegayi induna yenkosi, umgcini wabesifazane . U-Esteri wafumana umusa emehlweni abo bonke abambonayo.

Kufana namafutha amahle ekhanda ehlela esilevini , isilevu sika -Aroni, ehlela nasemphethweni wezambatho zakhe.

ngaleso sikhathi uJehova wakhuluma ngesandla sika -Isaya indodana ka - Amose, wathi: Hamba uthukulule indwangu yamasaka okhalweni lwakho , ukhumule izicathulo zakho ezinyaweni zakho . Wenze njalo , wahamba ze , akafakanga nazicathulo.

Kepha isandla sika -Ahikamu, indodana kaShafani , sasinoJeremiya ukuba bangamnikeli esandleni sabantu ukumbulala.

ngesandla sika-Eleyasa indodana kaShafani noGemariya indodana kaHilikiya abathunywa nguSedekiya , inkosi yakwaJuda , eBabele kuNebukadinesari inkosi yaseBabele, athi:

khuluma kubo , uthi: Isho kan je iNkosi uJehova , ithi: Bheka, ngiyakuyithatha induku kaJosefa esesandleni sika -Efrayimi nezizwe zakwa - Israyeli, abangane bakhe , ngiyibeke endukwini kaJuda , ngizenze zibe yinduku inye, babe munye esandleni sami.

Kugcwaliseka kubo isiprofetho sika -Isaya sokuthi: Ngokuzwa niyakuzwa, ningaze naqonda; ngokubona niyakubona, ningaze nabonisisa;

Emihleni kaHerode inkosi yaseJudiya kwakukhona umpristi othile ogama lakhe nguZakariya, esigabeni sika-Abiya, nomkakhe engowamadodakazi ka - Aroni, igama lakhe ngu-Elisabethe.

Saphelela-ke isikhathi sika-Elisabethe sokuba abelethe; wazala indodana.

Kwakukhona futhi kwa-Israyeli abanochoko abaningi ngesikhathi sika - Elisha umprofethi; kepha akuhlanjululwanga namunye kubo , kuphela uNayimani umSiriya.

Kwase kuthi wafa ompofu , wathwalwa yizingelosi, wasiwa esifubeni sika- Abrahama; nesicebi safa, sembelwa.

nokho ukufa kwabusa kusukela ku -Adamu kwaze kwaba kuMose , naphezu kwabangonanga ngendlela yeseqo sika -Adamu oyisifanekiso sakhe obeyakuza. Ukulunga nokuphila kwafika ngoJesu

ukuba isibusiso sika-Abrahama ngoKristu Jesu sifike kubo abezizwe, ukuze samukeliswe isithembiso sikaMoya ngokukholwa. Isithembiso asichithwa ngumthetho
