UMose wabiza bonke abakwa-Israyeli, wathi kubo: Nibonile konke uJehova akwenzayo phambi kwamehlo enu ezweni laseGibithe kuFaro , nakuzo zonke izinceku zakhe, nakulo lonke izwe lakhe:

uma ulalela izwi likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho , ugcine imiyalo yakhe nezimiso zakhe ezilotshwe kule ncwadi yomthetho , uma ubuyela kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ngayo yonke inhliziyo yakho nangawo wonke umphefumulo wakho.

lapho wonke u -Israyeli efike ukubonakala phambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho endaweni ayakuyikhe tha, wofunda lo mthetho phambi kuka-Israyeli wonke ezindlebeni zakhe.

Uyidwala, umsebenzi wakhe uphelele , ngokuba zonke izindlela zakhe zingukulunga; unguNkulunkulu wokuthembeka ongenakonakal a; ulungile, uqotho yena.

Njengokhozi olu nyakazisa isidleke salo , lubhakuza phezu kwamazinyane alo, wawelula amaphiko akhe, wabathatha, wabathwala ngezimpaphe zakhe.

Ngokuba uJehova uyakubahlulela abantu bakhe , azihawukele izinceku zakhe, lapho ebona ukuthi amandla abo aphelile, kungekho omunye ovalelweyo noma okhululekileyo.

Yenanelani abantu bakhe nina zizwe , ngokuba uyakuphindisela igazi lezinceku zakhe, abuyisele impindiselo kwabamelene naye, enzele izwi lakhe nabantu bakhe ukubuyisana.

Busisa, Jehova, amandla akhe, uyamukele imisebenzi yezandla zakhe; sicila ukhalo lwabo abamvukelayo, nolwabamzondayo, ukuba bangaphindi bavuke.

Izibulo lenkunzi yakhe liludumo lwakhe , nezimpondo zenyathi ziyizimpondo zakhe ; uyakuqhubukusha ngazo izizwe zonke ekugcineni komhlaba; zinjalo izigidi zakwa -Efrayimi, zinjalo izinkulungwane zakwaManase.

Wazikhethela isabelo sokuqala , ngokuba sasigodliwe lapho isabelo somahluleli; wahamba nezinhloko zabantu , wafeza ukulunga kukaJehova , nezahlulelo zakhe kanye no-Israyeli.

UJoshuwa indodana kaNuni wayegcwele umoya nokuhlakanipha , ngokuba uMose wayebekile izandla zakhe phezu kwakhe ; abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bamlalela-ke, benza njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.

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.

uJoshuwa wabiza wonke u -Israyeli, amalunga akhe , nezinhloko zakhe , nabahluleli bakhe, nezinduna zakhe, wathi kubo: Sengimdala ngineminyaka eminingi;

UJoshuwa wab utha zonke izizwe zakwa -Israyeli eShekemi , wabiza amalunga akwa -Israyeli, nezinhloko zakhe , nabahluleli bakhe , nezinduna zakhe, bema phambi kukaNkulunkulu.

Nxa esephumile yena , kwafika izinceku zakhe ; zabona, bheka, iminyango yekamelo eliphezulu yayihluthulelwe; zathi: Mhlawumbe uyembesa ezinyawo zakhe ekamelweni lakhe elipholileyo.

Ngiyakusondeza kuwe emfudlaneni iKishoni uSisera induna yempi kaJabini , nezinqola zakhe, nesixuku sakhe, ngimnikele esandleni sakho.

UBaraki wabiza oZebuloni noNafetali ukuba beze eKedeshi ; kwakhuphuka abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyishumi ezinyathelweni zakhe ; naye uDebora wakhuphuka naye.

USisera wayesebutha zonke izinqola zakhe , izinqola ezingamakhulu ayisishiyagalolunye zensimbi, nabantu bonke ababenaye, kusukela eHarosheti labezizwe kuze kube semfudlaneni iKishoni.

UJehova wamngquzula uSisera nazo zonke izinqola zakhe nempi yakhe yonke ngosiko lwenkemba phambi kukaBaraki ; uSisera wehlika enqoleni yakhe, wabaleka ngezinyawo.

Izikhulu zakwa-Isakare zazinaye uDebora; njengo-Isakare, kanjalo noBaraki; behlela ngokushesha esigodini ezinyathelweni zakhe . Ngaseminonjaneni yakwaRubeni kwakukhona ukululekana okukhulu kwenhliziyo.

Wakhothama ngasezinyaweni zakhe , wawa, walala; ngasezinyaweni zakhe wafola, wawa; lapho wakhothama khona, wawela khona efile.

Wabheka efasiteleni , wamemeza, unina kaSisera wathi eheleni : Inqola yakhe ilibalelani ukufika na? Zilibaziselwani izinyawo zezinqola zakhe na?

UGideyoni wathi kuyo : O nkosi yami , uma uJehova enathi , konke lokhu kusehlele ngani na? Ziphi izimangaliso zakhe abasitshela ngazo obaba, bathi: UJehova akasikhuphulanga eGibithe na ? Kepha manje uJehova u silahlile, wasinikela esandleni sakwaMidiyani.

UGideyoni wayesethatha amadoda ayishumi ezincekwini zakhe , wenza njengalokho uJehova ekhulumile kuye; kwathi lokhu ebesaba abendlu kayise nabantu bomuzi ukuba angakwenzi emini, wakwenza ebusuku.

Ngalokho uma nenzile ngeqini so nangobuqotho lapho nimbeka u - Abimeleki inkosi, uma nimphathile kahle uJerubali nendlu yakhe, nenza kuye njengokufanele izandla zakhe

ukuba ubudlo va obenziwe kuwo amadodana angamashumi ayisikhombisa kaJerubali bufike , negazi labo libekwe phezu kuka -Abimeleki umfowabo owababulala, naphezu kwabaseShekemi abaqinisa izandla zakhe ukuba abulale abafowabo.

Wayeseshesha ebiza udibi olwaluphethe izikhali zakhe , wathi kulo: Hosha inkemba yakho, ungibulale ukuba abantu bangasho ngami ukuthi: Wabulawa ngowesifazane. Udibi lwakhe lwase lumgwaza, wafa.

Kwathi lapho eyibona , waklebhula izingubo zakhe , wathi: Hawu, mntanami, ungithobisile kakhulu , ungomunye wabangihluphayo , ngokuba ngivulile umlomo kuJehova, angisenakubuya.

Wazitapa ngezandla zakhe, wahamba, wahamba edla, wafika kuyise nonina, wabapha, badla nabo ; kepha akabatshelanga ukuthi wayetape izinyo si esidumbini sengonyama.

Lapho efika eLehi , amaFilisti amhlangabeza ekhamuluka; uMoya kaJehova wafika kuye ngamandla , izintambo ezazisezingalweni zakhe zaba njengefilakisi elishiswe ngomlilo , nezibopho zakhe zancibilika , zasuka ezandleni zakhe.

UDelila wayesethatha amagoda amasha , wambopha ngawo , wathi kuye : AmaFilisti aphezu kwakho , Samsoni. Abaqamekeli babehlezi ekamelweni eliphakathi. Wawagqabula ezingalweni zakhe njengomucwana.

Inkosi yakhe yavuka ekuseni , yavula iminya ngo yendlu , yaphuma ukuba ihambe indlela yayo ; bheka, owesifazane, isancinza sakhe , wayewile ngasemnyango wendlu, izandla zakhe ziphezu kombundu.

Kuyakuthi nxa eselala , uqaphele indawo ayakulala kuyo , ungene, wambule izinyawo zakhe, ulale; uyakukutshela lokhu oyakukwenza.

UBowazi wadla waphuza , inhliziyo yakhe yathokoza , waya ukulala ngasekugcineni kwenqwaba yamabele ; wafika kahle , wambula izinyawo zakhe, walala.

Walala ngasezinyaweni zakhe kwaze kwasa, wavuka bengakazani. Ngokuba yathi: Makungaziwa ukuthi owesifazane wafika esibuyeni.

UHana wayekhuluma enhliziyweni yakhe , kwabikizela izindebe zakhe zomlomo kuphela , kepha izwi lakhe lalingezwakali ; ngalokho u -Eli wacabanga ukuthi udakiwe.

Kwaphuma umuntu wakwaBenjamini empini , wagijima w aya eShilo ngalolo suku, izingubo zakhe ziklebhukile, enomhlabathi ekhanda.

Sebevukile kusasa ekuseni , bheka, uDagoni wayewile phansi ngobuso phambi komphongolo kaJehova ; ikhanda likaDagoni nezimpama zombili zezandla zakhe zazinqamukile zisembundwini ; kwasala isidumbu sakhe kuphela.

Amadodana akhe ayengahambi ngezindlela zakhe , kepha aphambukela inzuzo embi, athengwa ngemivuzo, aphendukezela izahlulelo. Abakwa-Israyeli bafuna inkosi

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.

Kwathi ngosuku oluthile uJonathani indodana kaSawule wathi odibini oluphethe izikhali zakhe : Woza siwele , siye ekhandeni lamaFilisti elingaphesheya. Kepha akamtshelanga uyise.

UJonathani wathi odibini lwakhe oluphethe izikhali zakhe : Woza siwele , siye ekha ndeni lalabo abangasokile ; ingabe uJehova uyakusisebenzela , ngokuba akukh o okumthiyayo uJehova ukuba asindise ngabaningi noma ngabayingcosana.

Ophethe izikhali zakhe wathi kuye : Yenza konke okusenhliziyweni yakho : hamba, bheka, nginawe njengenhliziyo yakho.

Abantu basekhandeni bamphendula uJonathani nodibi lwakhe , bathi: Khuphukelani kithi , siyakunifundisa indaba . UJonathani wayesethi odibini oluphethe izikhali zakhe : Khuphuka emva kwami , ngokuba uJehova ubanikele esandleni sakwa-Israyeli.

UJonathani wakhuphuka ngezandla zakhe nangezinyawo zakhe , nodibi lwakhe emva kwakhe; bawa phambi kukaJonathani, nodibi lwezikhali zakhe lwababulala emva kwakhe.

Lokho kuceka kokuqala abakwenzayo uJonathani nodibi lwezikhali zakhe kwakungabantu kungathi amashumi amabili ebangeni elingathi inxenye ye - eka lensimu.

USawule wayesethi kubantu ababe naye : Balani manje, nibone ukuthi ngubani omukile kithi . Babala, bheka, uJonathani nodibi lwezikhali zakhe babengekho.

USawule esethathile umbuso wakwa-Israyeli walwa nazo zonke izitha zakhe nxazonke, noMowabi, nabantwana bakwa-Amoni, no-Edomi, namakhosi aseSoba, namaFilisti; nomaphi lapho ebheka khona, wayehlula.

UDavide waf ika kuSawule , wema phambi kwakhe ; wamthanda kakhulu , waba ludibi lwezikhali zakhe.

UDavide wabhinca inkemba yakhe phezu kwezambatho zakhe , wazama ukuhamba, ngokuba wayengakazilingi . UDavide wathi k uSawule: Anginakuhamba nalezi, angikazilingi. UDavide wayesezikhumula.

UDavide wathatha ikhanda lomFilisti, waliyisa eJerusalema; kepha wafaka izikhali zakhe etendeni lakhe.

UJonathani wakhumula ingubo ayenayo , wayinika uDavide , nezinye izambatho zakhe kwaze kwaba nenkemba yakhe, nomnsalo wakhe, nebhande lakhe.

Abesifazane bavumelana ngokudlala , bathi: USawule ubulele izinkulungwane zakhe, kepha uDavide izinkulungwane zakhe eziyishumi.

UDavide waziphatha ngokuhlakanipha kuzo zonke izindlela zakhe; uJehova wayenaye.

USawule wayaleza izinceku zakhe ngokuthi : Khulumani noDavide ngasese, nithi: Bheka, inkosi yenamile ngawe, nazo zonke izinceku zayo ziyakuthanda; ngalokho yiba ngumkhwenyana wenkosi.

Izinceku zakhe zamtshela uDavide lawo mazwi , kwaba kuhle emehlweni kaDavide ukuba abe ngumkhwenyana wenkosi, kepha izinsuku zazingakapheleli;

USawule wakhuluma kuJonathani indodana yakhe nakuzo zonke izin ceku zakhe ngokubulala uDavide . Kepha uJonathani indodana kaSawule wamenamela kakhulu uDavide.

Naye wakhumula izingubo zakhe, waprofetha naye phambi kukaSamuweli, walala phansi enqunu lonke lolo suku nabo bonke lobo busuku . Ngalokho kwathiwa: Naye uSawule uphakathi kwabaprofethi na?

UJonathani wanika umfana wakhe izikhali zakhe , wathi kuye : Hamba, uziyise emzini.

Izinceku zika -Akhishi zathi kuye : Lo akasiye uDavide , inkosi yezwe , na? Abavumelananga yini ngaye omunye nomunye , besina bethi : USawule ubulele izinkulungwane zakhe , kepha uDavide izinkulungwane zakhe eziyishumi, na?

U-Akhishi wayesethi ezincekwini zakhe : Bheka, uyabona ukuthi lo muntu uyahlanya; nimletheleni kimi na?

USawule wathi ezincekwini zakhe ezazimi ngakuye : Yizwani nina bakwaBenjamini; indodana kaJese iyakuninika nonke amasimu nezivini , inenze nonke nibe yizinduna zezinkulungwane nezinduna zamakhulu,

Wafika ezibayeni zezimvu ngasendleleni, lapho kukhona umhume; uSawule wangena khona ukuba embese izinyawo zakhe . UDavide nabantu bakhe babehlezi emuva emhumeni.

Kwakukhona umuntu eMahoni onemfuyo yakhe eKarmeli ; lowo muntu wayemkhulu kakhulu , wayenezimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezintathu nezimbuzi eziyinkulungwane; wayezigunda izimvu zakhe eKarmeli.

UDavide wezwa ehlane ukuthi uNabali ugunda izimvu zakhe.

Wawa ngasezinyaweni zakhe , wathi: Lobo bubi mabube phezu kwami , nkosi; incekukazi yakho mayikhulume ezindlebeni zakho , uzwe amazwi encekukazi yakho.

U-Abigayili washesha wasuka , wakhwela imbongolo kanye nezintombi zakhe ezazihamba naye ; wazilandela iz ithunywa zikaDavide , waba ngumkakhe.

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

Kepha wala wathi: Angiyikudla. Kodwa zamcindezela izinceku zakhe kanye nowesifazane, walilalela izwi labo . Wayesevuka emhlabathini , wahlala embhedeni.

wasiletha phambi kukaSawule naphambi kwezinceku zakhe , badla. Base besuka bahamba ngalobo busuku.

Lona akasiye uDavide ababehlabelela ngaye , besina bethi: USawule ubulele izinkulungwane zakhe, kepha uDavide izinkulungwane zakhe eziyishumi na?

funa ufunde izindlela zakhe, uthole ugibe lomphefumulo wakho.

Unganxaneli izilovela zakhe, lokhu zingukudla okukhohlisayo.

Ungadli ukudla koneso elibi, ungafisi izilovela zakhe,

USawule wayesethi odibini lwezikhali zakhe : Hosha inkemba yakho , ungigwaze ngayo , funa labo abangasokile bafike , bangigwaze, bangone. Kepha aluvumanga udibi lwezikhali zakhe, ngokuba lwesaba kakhulu . Ngalokho uSawule wayithatha inkemba, wawela phezu kwayo.

Udibi lwezikhali zakhe selubonile ukuthi uSawule ufile , lwawela nalo phezu kwenkemba yalo, lwafa kanye naye.

Amnquma ikhanda , athatha izikhali zakhe , azithuma ezweni lamaFilisti nxazonke ukukumemezela endlini yezithombe zawo nakubantu.

Azibeka izikhali zakhe endlini ka -Ashitaroti, abethela isidumbu sakhe ogangeni lwaseBeti Shani.

kwathi-ke ngosuku lwesithathu , bheka, kwaphuma umuntu ekamu likaSawule, izingubo zakhe ziklebhukil e, enomhlabathi ekhanda , wawa phansi ekufikeni kwakhe kuDavide, wakhuleka.

UDavide wayesebamba izingubo zakhe , waziklebhula kanye nawo onke amadoda ayenaye.

U-Abineri wayesethi kuye : Chezukela ngakwesokunene noma ngakwesokhohlo, ubambe enye yezinsizwa, uthathe izikhali zakhe. Kepha u- Asaheli akavumanga ukuchezuka ekumlandeleni.

umuntu owangit shela ukuthi : Bheka, uSawule ufile , ecabanga ukuthi ulethile izindaba ezinhle , ngambamba, ngambulala eSikilagi , ethi ngangiyakumnika umvuzo wezindaba zakhe;

UDavide wayeseyaleza izinsizwa zakhe , zababulala, zabanquma izandla nezinyawo, zabaphanyeka ngaseceleni kwechibi laseHebroni. Kepha bathatha ikhanda lika-Ishi Bosheti, balimbela ethuneni lika-Abineri eHebroni.

UDavide wayesebuya ukubusisa indlu yakhe . UMikhali indodakazi kaSawule waphuma ukumhlangabeza uDavide, wathi: Yeka udumo lwenkosi ka-Israyeli namuhla, ezambulile namuhla emehlweni ezincekukazi zezinceku zakhe njengomunye wamayiyane, ezambula nokuzambula.

UMefibosheti wayesehlala eJerusalema , ngokuba wadla njalo etafuleni lenkosi; wayelunyonga ngezinyawo zakhe zombili.

UDavide wathi : Ngiyakumenzela umusa uHanuni indodana kaNahashi , njengalokho uyise angenzela umusa . UDavide wayesethuma ngesandla sezinceku zakhe ukumduduza ngoyise . Zafika-ke izinceku zikaDavide ezweni labantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Kepha izikhulu zabantwana bakwa-Amoni zathi kuHanuni inkosi yazo: Imbala ngokubona kwakho uDavide uthume abaduduzi kuwe ukuba atuse uyihlo na? UDavide akazithumanga yini izinceku zakhe kuwe ukuba ziphenye umuzi, ziwuhlole, ziwuchithe, na?

Emva komnyaka ngesikhathi sokuhlasela kwamakhosi uDavide wamthuma uJowabe nezinceku zakhe zinaye kanye no -Israyeli wonke , babachitha abantwana bakwa-Amoni, bavimbezela iRaba ; kepha uDavide wahlala eJerusalema.

Kepha uDavide ebona uk uthi izinceku zakhe ziyanyenyezelana , uDavide waqonda ukuthi umntwana ufile ; uDavide wayesethi ezincekwini zakhe : Usefile umntwana na? Zathi: Ufile.

UDavide wayesevuka emhlabathini , wageza, wazigcoba, waphendulela izingubo zakhe, wangena endlini kaJehova , wakhuleka; wayeseya endlini yakhe; lapho esecela ukudla, bakubeka phambi kwakhe, wadla.

Zase zithi izinceku zakhe kuye : Yintoni le oyenzileyo na ? Wazila ukudla, wakhala ngomntwana esekhona, kepha lapho esefile, uvukile wadla.

Nxa ephucula ikhanda lakhe ngokuba wayelo khu eliphucula njalo ngasekupheleni komnyaka , lokhu izinwele zakhe zamsinda ; ngalokho waziphucula wazilinganisa izinwele zekhanda lakhe , zalingana namashekeli angamakhulu amabili ngesisindo senkosi.

Wayesethi ezincekwini zakhe : Bhekani, insimu kaJowabe iseduze neyami , unebhali khona ; hambani niyithungele ngomlilo . Izinceku zika -Abisalomu zayithungela-ke insimu ngomlilo.

UDavide wayesethi ezincekwini zakhe zonke ezazinaye eJerusalema : Sukani, sibaleke, ngokuba, uma singenzi njalo, akuyikuphunyuka muntu kithi phambi kuka-Abisalomu; sheshani, nimuke, funa asifice masinyane, asehlisele okubi, awuchithe umuzi ngosiko lwenkemba.

UDavide wayesethi ku -Abishayi nakuzo zonke izinceku zakhe: Bhekani, indodana yami eyaphuma ezibilinini zami ifuna ukuphila kwami ; kakhulu kangakanani lo mBenjamini na ? Myekeni, athuke, ngokuba uJehova ukhulumile kuye.

Kweza naye abantu abayinkulungwane bakwaBenjamini , noSiba inceku yendlu kaSawule , namadodana akhe ayishumi nanhlanu , nezinceku zakhe ezingamashumi amabili zinaye; bawela iJordani phambi kwenkosi.

Naye uMefibosheti indodana kaSawule wehla ukuhlangabeza inkosi ; wayengalungisanga izinyawo zakhe , engalungisanga nesil evu sakhe , engahlanzanga futhi izingubo zakhe , kwasukela osukwini inkosi eyamuka ngalo kwaze kwaba lusuku owabuya ngalo ngokuthula.

Kodwa u-Amasa akayinakanga inkemba eyayisesandleni sikaJowabe ; wamgwaza ngayo esiswini , wachithela izibilini zakhe emhlaba thini; wafa engamphindanga. OJowabe no -Abishayi umfowabo bamxosha uSheba indodana kaBikri.

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

Labo bobane bazalwa ngamaRefa eGati ; bawa ngesandla s ikaDavide nangesandla sezinceku zakhe.

UDavide wakhuluma kuJehova amazwi aleli hubo mhla uJehova emophula esandleni sezitha zakhe zonke nasesandleni sikaSawule,

Ekuhluphekeni kwami ngambiz a uJehova, ngakhala kuNkulunkulu wami ; walizwa izwi lami esethempelini lakhe ; ukukhala kwami k wangena ezindlebeni zakhe.

Wathobisa izulu, wehla; ubumnyama babuphansi kwezinyawo zakhe.

Ngokuba yonke imithetho yakh e yayiphambi kwami , nezimiso zakhe angizivumanga ukuba zisuke kimi.

ugcine isiyalezo sikaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ukuba uhambe ezindleleni zakhe, ugcine izimiso zakhe, nemiyalo yakhe, nezahlulelo zakhe, nobufakazi bakhe njengokulotshiweyo emthethweni kaMose , ukuze uphumelele kukho konke okwenzayo nakukho konke okubhekayo,

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.

Wayesesuka uShimeyi, wabophela imbongolo yakhe, waya eGati ku-Akhishi ukuba afune izinceku zakhe ; wahamba uShimeyi, wazibuyisa izinceku zakhe eGati.

USolomoni wayesephaphama; bheka, kwakuyiphupho; waya eJer usalema, wema phambi komphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova , wanikela ngeminikelo yokushiswa , wanikela ngeminikelo yokuthula , wazenzela izinceku zakhe zonke idili. Ukuhlakanipha kukaSolomoni ekwahluleleni

Wayesekhuluma enkosini owesifazane ongowakhe umntwana ophilayo , ngokuba izibilini zakhe zavutha ngomnta nakhe, wathi: E nkosi, mnike yena umntwana ophilayo, ungambulali nakanye, kepha omunye wathi: Makangabi ngowami nangowakho; mdabuleni.

Wabusa ezweni lonke ngaphesheya koMfula kusukela eThifisa kuze kube seGaza phezu kwawo onke amakhosi ngaphesheya koMfula ; wayenokuthula nxazonke zakhe.

USolomoni wayenezipani eziyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane zamahhashi ezinqola zakhe nabamahhashi abayizinkulungwane eziy ishumi nambili.

UHiramu inkosi yaseTire wathuma izinceku zakhe kuSolomoni , ngokuba wayezwile ukuthi ugcotshi we abe yinkosi esikhundleni sikayise , ngokuba uHiramu wayengumngane kaDavide njalo.

Wena uyazi ukuthi uDavide ubaba wayengenakwakhela igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe indlu ngenxa yezimpi ezazimzungeza nxazonke, uJehova waze wazibeka phansi kwamathe ezinyawo zakhe.

Othuma izwi ngesandla sesiwula unquma izinyawo zakhe, uphuza ingozi.

Ozondayo uyazenzisa ngezindebe zakhe , ubekelela inkohliso enhliziyweni yakhe.

Ungcono ompofu ohamba ekupheleleni kwakh e kunocebileyo ophambene ngezindlela zakhe.

Ofihla iziphambeko zakhe akayi kuphumelela, kepha ozivumayo azishiye uyakuthola umusa.

Wena sikhulu esi ngenakuqonda nesicindezelayo , ozonda inzuzo engalungile uyakwandiza izinsuku zakhe.

Ohamba ekupheleleni uyakusinda , kepha ophambene ngezindlela zakhe uyakuwa kwenye yazo.

Umuntu othopha umakhelwane wakhe wenekela izinyawo zakhe inetha.

Uma umbusi elalela indaba yamanga, zonke izinceku zakhe zimbi.

USolomoni wema phambi kwe -altare likaJehova ebusweni balo lonke ibandla lakwa-Israyeli, welulela izandla zakhe ngasezulwini,

bese kuzwakala namuphi umkhuleko nakuphi ukunxusa noma ngumuphi umuntu noma yibo bonke abantu bakho u -Israyeli abayakwazi, kube yilowo nalowo inhlupheko yasenhliziyweni yakhe, elulele izandla zakhe kule ndlu,

mawuzwe wena ezulwini , indawo yakho yokuhlala , uthethelele, wenze, unike yilowo nalowo njengezindlela zakhe , wena owaziyo inhliziyo yakhe ngokuba wena kuphela uyazi izinhliziyo zabo bonke abantwana babantu

Kwathi uSolomoni eseqedile ukukhuleka wonke lo mkhuleko nalokho kunxusa kuJehova, wasuka e-altare likaJehova ekuguqeni ngamadolo akhe , izandla zakhe zelulelwe ngasezulwini.

ukuze adonsele izinhliziyo zethu kuye ukuba sihambe ngezindlela zakhe zonke, sigcine imiyalo yakhe , nezimiso zakhe , nezahlulelo zakhe ayala ngakho obaba.

Inhliziyo mayibe kuJehova uNkulunkulu wethu ngokupheleleyo, nihambe ngezimiso zakhe, nigcine imiyalo yakhe njenganamuhla.

nayo yonke imizi yokubekelela uSolomoni ayenayo , nemizi yezinqola zakhe, nemizi yabamahhashi bakhe , nalokhu uSolomoni ayefisa ukwakha khona eJerusalema, naseLebanoni, nasezweni lonke lapho ebusa khona.

Kodwa kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli uSolomoni akakhiphanga izigqila ngokuba bona babe ngamadoda empi , nezinceku zakhe , nezikhulu zakhe , nezinduna zakhe, nabaphathi bezinqola zakhe, nabamahhashi bakhe.

UHiramu wathuma ngale mikhumbi izinceku zakhe , amadoda emikhumbi ayelwazi ulwandle, kanye nezinceku zikaSolomoni.

nokudla kwasetafuleni lakhe , nokuhlala kwezinceku zakhe , nokuma kwezikhonzi zakhe , nezambatho zazo , nabaphathizitsha bakhe , nomnikelo wakhe wokushiswa owanikela ngawo endlini kaJehova , akwabe kusabakho moya kuyo.

Kwathi lapho u -Ahiya ezwa izigqi zezinyawo zakhe ekungeneni kwakhe emnyango, wathi: Ngena, mkaJerobowamu; uzishayelani omunye ; mina ngithunyiwe kuwe nginendaba elukhuni.

Kodwa izindawo eziphakemeyo azisuswanga ; nokho inhliziyo ka -Asa yayikuJehova ngokupheleleyo zonke izinsuku zakhe.

Wangenisa endlini kaJehova izinto ezingcwele zikayise nezinto zakhe ezingcwele: isiliva, negolide, nezitsha.

U-Asa wayesethatha lonke isiliva negolide elalisele engcebeni yendlu kaJehova nengcebo yendlu yenkosi , wakunikela ezandleni zezinceku zakhe ; inkosi u -Asa yazithuma kuBeni Hadadi indodana kaTabirimoni kaHeziyoni , inkosi yase-Aramu, owayehlala eDamaseku, yathi:

Zonke ezinye izindaba zika -Asa, nawo onke amandla akhe , nakho konke akwenzayo, nemizi ayakhayo , angithi kulotshiwe encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yamakhosi akwaJuda na ? Ngesikhathi sobudala bakhe wayenesifo ezinyaweni zakhe.

Kwafika ngesandla somprofethi uJehu indodana kaHanani izwi likaJehova ngoBahasha nendlu yakhe ngenxa yakho konke okubi akwenza emehlweni kaJehova ukuthi wamcunula ngomsebenzi wezandla zakhe, waba njengendlu kaJerobowamu, nangenxa yokuba wayiqothula. O-Ela noZimri no-Omri no-Ahabi bangamakhosi kwa-Israyeli

Inceku yakhe uZimri , induna yenxenye yezinqola zakhe , yamenzela ugobe; eseTirisa ephuzile waze wadakwa endlini ka -Arisa owayephezu kwabendlu yaseTirisa,

ngenxa yezono zakhe one ngazo ngokwenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova , ngokuhamba endleleni kaJerobowamu nasesonweni sakhe asenzayo ukuba onise u-Israyeli.

Ngokuba waham ba ezindleleni zonke zikaJerobowamu , indodana kaNebati, nasezonweni zakhe onisa ngazo u -Israyeli, baze bacunula uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ngezithombe zabo.

Ezinsukwini zakhe uHiyeli waseBethele wabuye wakha iJeriko ; wabeka isisekelo salo ngokulahlekelwa ngu-Abiramu izibulo lakhe, wamisa amasango alo ngokulahlekelwa yithunjana lakhe uSegubi , njengezwi likaJehova owalikhuluma ngesandla sikaJoshuwa indodana kaNuni.

Kwathi esezwa leli zwi , ephuza kanye namakhosi emadokodweni , wathi ezincekwini zakhe: Mayiphume. Yayisiphuma ukulwa nomuzi.

Kepha izinceku zakhe zathi ku ye: Bheka, sizwile ukuthi amakhosi endlu yakwa-Israyeli angamakhosi anomusa ; ake sembathe izindwangu zamasaka ezinkalweni zethu nezintambo emakhanda ethu , siphume, siye enkosini yakwa-Israyeli; mhlawumbe iyakusindisa ukuphila kwakho.

Kwathi u -Ahabi esezwile lawo mazwi , waklebhula izingubo zakhe , wembatha indwangu yamasak a emzimbeni wakhe , wazila ukudla , walala endwangwini yamasaka, wahambahamba kancane.

U-Elisha wakubona , wamemeza wathi : Baba, baba, nqola ka -Israyeli nabamahhashi bakhe ! Akabe esambona futhi ; wabamba izingubo zakhe , waziklebhula kabili. U-Elisha ungumprofethi; izimangaliso zakhe

Wafika kumuntu kaNkulunkulu entabeni , wabamba izinyawo zakhe . UGehazi wasondela ukuba amxoshe , kepha umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathi : Myeke, ngokuba inhliziyo yakhe imunyu phakathi kwakhe ; uJehova ungifihlele lokho, kangitshelanga.

Wakhuphuka, walala phezu komntwana , wabeka umlomo wakhe phezu komlomo wakhe, namehlo akhe phezu kwamehlo akhe , nezandla zakhe phezu kwezandla zakhe ; lapho esekhothama phezu kwakhe , inyama yomntwana yafudumala.

Wayesefika, wawa ngasezinyaweni zakhe, wakhothama phansi; wayithatha indodana yakhe, waphuma. Ukufa kwasekhanzini

Wayesefika uNahamani namahhashi akhe nezinqola zakhe , wema ngasemnyango wendlu ka-Elisha.

Kepha uGehazi inceku ka-Elisha umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathi: Bheka, inkosi yami imyekile uNahamani lo wase -Aramu ngokungamukeli ezandleni zakhe akulethayo; kuphila kukaJehova, ngiyakugijima, ngimlandele, ngithathe into kuye.

UNahamani wathi: Vuma, wamukele amatalenta amabili . Wamncengisisa, wabopha amatalenta amabili esil iva ezinqalathini ezimbili kanye nezingubo ezimbili zokuphendulela, wakunikela ezincekwini zakhe ezimbili; zakuthwala phambi kwakhe.

U-Elisha wakhuleka , wathi: Jehova, ake uvule amehlo ayo ukuba ibone . UJehova wavula-ke amehlo aleyo nceku , yabona; bheka, intaba yayigcwele amahhashi nezinqola zomlilo nxazonke zakhe u-Elisha.

UJoramu wayesewelela eSayiri, nazo zonke izinqola zakhe zinaye ; wavuka ebusuku, wamchitha u -Edomi omhaqileyo nxazonke , nezinduna zezinqola , kepha abantu babalekela ematendeni abo.

Izinceku zakhe zamyisa ngenqola eJerusalema , zammbela ethuneni lakhe kanye nawoyise emzini kaDavide.

Wathi: Mphonseni phansi . Zamphonsa; igazi lakhe lasaphazeka odongeni nasemahhashini; wamnyathela phansi kwezinyawo zakhe.

Ngalokho ngibizele bonke abaprofethi bakaBali, zonke izinceku zakhe, nabo bonke abapristi bakhe, kungasali muntu, ngokuba nginomhlatshelo omkhulu kuBali; bonke abafunyaniswa bengekho abayikuphila . Kepha uJehu wakwenza ngobuqili ukuba abhubhise izinceku zikaBali.

Niyakuyizungeza inkosi nxazonke , yilowo nalowo abe nezikhali zakhe esandleni sakhe ; ongena phakathi kwezinhla makabulawe; yibani n enkosi ekuphumeni kwayo nasekungeneni kwayo.

Abalindi bema , kwaba yilowo nalowo enezikhali zakhe esandleni sakhe , kusukela ohlangothini lokunene lwendlu kuze kube sohlangothini lwesokhohlo lwendlu, ngase-altare nasendlini nxazonke zenkosi.

wabuka, bheka, inkosi yayimi ngasensikeni njengomthetho , izikhulu nabamacilongo bengasenkosini ; bonke abantu bezwe bathokoza , bakhalisa amacilongo. U-Athaliya wayeseklebhula izingubo zakhe, wamemeza ngokuthi: Ngugobe! Ngugobe!

Bonke abantu bezwe baya endlini kaBali , bayibhidliza; ama-altare akh e nezithombe zakhe bakuphahlaza kakhulu , babulala uMathani , umpristi kaBali, phambi kwama-altare. Umpristi wamisela indlu kaJehova ababonisi.

UJehowashi wenza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova izinsuku zakhe zonke uJehoyada umpristi amfundisa ngazo.

UJehowashi, inkosi yakwaJuda , wathatha zonke izinto ezingcwele , ezingcwelisiwe ngoJehoshafati noJehoramu no-Ahaziya oyise , amakhosi akwaJuda, nezinto zakhe ezingcwelisiwe , nalo lonke igolide elafunyanwa engcebeni endlini kaJehova nasendlini yenkosi , wakuthuma kuHazayeli inkosi yase-Aramu; wayesesuka eJerusalema.

Izinceku zakhe zasuka, zenza ugobe, zambulala uJowashi endlini yaseMilo ekwehleleni eSila.

UJozakari, indodana kaShimeyati , noJehozabadi indodana kaShomeri , izinceku zakhe , bambulala, wafa; bammbela koyise emzini kaDavide . U- Amasiya, indodana yakhe, waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.

Wathi enkosini yakwa -Israyeli: Beka isandla sakho emnsalw eni. Yabeka-ke isandla sayo. U-Elisha wabeka izandla zakhe phezu kwezandla zenkosi.

Kwathi lapho besammbela umuntu othile , bheka, babona iviyo; bamlahla umuntu ethuneni lika-Elisha. Lowo muntu wanele ukuthinta nje amathambo ka-Elisha, waphila, wema ngezinyawo zakhe. Ama-Aramu ayahlulwa

Kwathi lapho umbuso usuqinisiwe esandleni sakhe , wazibulala izinceku zakhe ezaziyibulele inkosi uyise.

Wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova , kasukanga zonke izinsuku zakhe ezonweni zikaJerobowamu indodana kaNebati onisa ngazo u-Israyeli.

Badelela izimiso zakhe , nesivumelwano sakhe asenzayo nawoy ise, nezixwayiso abaxwayisa ngazo, balandela okuyize, benza okuyize, balandela abezizwe ababebazungeza , uJehova abayale ngabo ukuthi abayikwenza njengabo.

uJehova waze wamsusa u -Israyeli ebusweni bakhe njengokukhuluma kwakhe ngesandla sazo zonke izinceku zakhe abaprofethi . Wayesethunjwa u- Israyeli ezweni lakubo, wayiswa e-Asiriya kuze kube namuhla. AmaSamariya nokukhonza kwawo izithombe

Kepha uma nithi kimi: Siyamethemba uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu, akusiye yini ozindawo zakhe eziphakemeyo nama -altare akhe aku susile uHezekiya , wathi kuJuda nakulo iJerusalema : Niyakukhuleka phambi kwaleli altare eJerusalema, na?

UHezekiya wabalalela , wababonisa yonke indlu yengcebo yakhe , isiliva, negolide, namakha, namafutha amahle, nendlu yezikhali zakhe, nakho konke okwafunyanwa engcebeni yakhe ; akubangakho nto endlini yakhe nasembusweni wakhe wonke angababonisanga yona.

UJehova wayesekhuluma ngezinceku zakhe abaprofethi, wathi:

Ngokuba uManase inkosi yakwaJuda enzile lezi zinengiso, enze kabi kunakho konke ukwenza kwama -Amori ayephambi kwakhe , wonisa noJuda ngezithombe zakhe,

Inkosi yema ngasensikeni , yenza isivumelwano phambi kukaJehova ukumlandela uJehova nokugcina imiyalo yakhe , nobufakazi bakhe, nezimiso zakhe ngenhlizi yo yonke nangomphefumulo wonke ukuqinisa amazwi alesi sivumelwano alotshwe kule ncwadi; bonke abantu basivuma isivumelwano.

UJehova wathuma kuye amaviyo amaKaledi , namaviyo ama-Aramu, namaviyo abakwaMowabi, namaviyo abantwana bakwa -Amoni, wawathuma kuJuda ukumchitha njengezwi likaJehova alikhulumayo ngesandla sezinceku zakhe abaprofethi.

UNebukadinesari inkosi yaseBabele weza emzini , izinceku zakhe zisawuvimbezele.

UJehoyakini inkosi yakwaJuda waphuma , waya enkosini yaseBabele, yena nonina, nezinceku zakhe , nezikhulu zakhe , nezinduna zakhe; inkosi yaseBabele yamthatha ngomnyaka wesishiyagalombili wokubusa kwakhe.

Waguqula izingubo zakhe zasetilongweni ; wadla njalo phambi kwakhe zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakhe.

Wabhalwa-ke wonke u -Israyeli ngezizukulwane ; bheka, balotshiwe encwadini yamakhosi akwa -Israyeli; uJuda wathunjelw a eBabele ngeziphambeko zakhe.

USawule wayesethi odibini lwezikhali zakhe : Hosha inkemba yakho , ungigwaze ngayo , funa labo abangasokile bafike , bangone. Kepha aluvumanga udibi lwezikhali zakh e, ngokuba lwesaba kakhulu . Ngalokho uSawule wayithatha inkemba, wawela phezu kwayo.

Udibi lwezikhali zakhe selubonile ukuthi uSawule ufile , lwawela nalo phezu kwenkemba, lwafa.

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

Azibeka izikhali zakhe endlini yawonkulunkulu bawo , abethela ikhanda lakhe endlini kaDagoni.

Bongani uJehova, nibize igama lakhe , nizazise phakathi kwabantu izenzo zakhe.

Hlabelelani kuye, nimhubele, nikhulume ngezimangaliso zakhe zonke.

Khumbulani izimangaliso zakhe azenzileyo , nezibonakaliso zakhe , nezahlulelo zomlomo wakhe,

Yena unguJehova uNkulunkulu wethu ; izahlulelo zakhe zisemhlabeni wonke.

Landani inkazimulo yakhe phakathi kwabezizwe , izimangaliso zakhe phakathi kwabantu bonke.

Kepha izikhulu zabantwana bakwa -Amoni zathi kuHanuni : Imbala ngokubona kwakho u thume abaduduzi kuwe ukuba atuse uyihlo na ? Azifikanga yini izinceku zakhe kuwe ukuba ziphenye umuzi , ziwuchithe, ziwuhlole, na?

Labo bazalwa ngamaRefa eGati , bawa ngesandla sikaD avide nangesandla sezinceku zakhe.

bheka, uyakuzalelwa indodana eyakuba ngumuntu wokuthula ; ngiyakumnika ukuphumula ezitheni zakhe nxazonke , ngokuba igama lakhe liyakuba nguSo lomoni; ukuthula nokuzola ngi yakumnika khona u -Israyeli emihleni yakhe;

Ihabu nogubhu , isigubhu negenkle , newayini kukhona emadilini abo , kepha abanakekeli imisebenzi kaJehova, nezenzo zezandla zakhe abaziboni.

Ngase ngithi: Maye kimi! Ngokuba ngiphelile, lokhu ngingumuntu ozindebe zakhe zingcolile , futhi ngihlezi phakathi kwabantu abazindebe zabo zingcolile, ngokuba amehlo ami abonile iNkosi uJehova Sebawoti.

Izihlathi zakhe ziyizindima zamakha ezithaphuka iphunga, nezindebe zakhe ziyiminduze econsa imure elimanzi.

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

Ukulunga kuyakuba yibhande lezinkalo zakhe, ukuthembeka kube yibhande lamanyonga akhe.

Wema phambi kwe-altare likaJehova ebusweni balo lonke ibandla lakwa - Israyeli, welula izandla zakhe,

ngokuba uSolomoni wayenzile ibhesitulu lethusi; ubude balo babuyizingalo eziyisihlanu, nobubanzi balo babuyizingalo eziyisihlanu, nokuphakama kwalo kwakuyizingalo ezintathu ; walimisa phakathi negceke , wema kulo , wayeseguqa ngamadolo phambi kwalo lonke ibandla lakwa -Israyeli, welulela izandla zakhe ngasezulwini,

bese kuzwakala namuphi umkhuleko nakuphi ukun xusa noma ngumuphi umuntu noma yibo bonke abantu bakho u -Israyeli abayakwazi, kube yilowo nalowo inhlupheko yakhe nosizi lwakhe, elulele izandla zakhe kule ndlu,

mawuzwe wena ezulwini, indawo yakho yokuhlala , uthethelele, unike, kube yilowo nalowo njeng ezindlela zakhe zonke , wena owaziyo inhliziyo yakhe ngokuba wena kuphela uyazi izinhliziyo zabantwana babantu

kanye neBalati nayo yonke imizi yokubekelela uSolomoni ayenayo, nayo yonke imizi yezinqola zakhe , nemizi yabamahhashi bakhe , nakho konke uSolomoni ayefisa uku kwakha eJerusalema, naseLebanoni, nasezweni lonke lokubusa kwakhe.

Kepha kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli uSolomoni akakhiphanga izigqila zomsebenzi wakhe , ngokuba babengamadoda empi , nabakhulu bezinduna zakhe, nezinduna zezinqola zakhe, nabamahhashi bakhe.

UHiramu wathuma kuye ngezandla zezinceku zakhe imikhumnbi nezinceku ezazilwazi ulwandle ; zafika nezinceku zikaSolomoni e -Ofiri, zalanda khona amatalenta angamakhulu amane namashumi ayisihlanu egolide , zawayisa enkosini uSolomoni.

nokudla kwasetafuleni lakhe , nokuhlala kwezinceku zakhe , nokuma kwezikhonzi zakhe , nezambatho zazo , kanye nabaphathizitsha nezambatho zabo, nesikhwelo sakhe akhuphukela ngaso endlini kaJehova , akwabe kusabakho moya kuyo.

URehobowamu wamthanda uMahakha indodakazi ka-Abisalomu phezu kwabo bonke abafazi bakhe nezancinza zakhe , ngokuba wathatha abafazi abayishumi nesishiyagalombili nez ancinza ezingamashumi ayisithupha , wazala amadodana angamashumi amabili nesishiyagalombili namadodakazi angamashumi ayisithupha.

Nokho bayakuba yizinceku zakhe ukuba bazi inkonzo yami nenkonzo yemibuso yezizwe. UShishaki usukela iJerusalema

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

Kodwa izindawo eziphakemeyo azisuswanga kwa-Israyeli; nokho inhliziyo ka-Asa yayiphelele zonke izinsuku zakhe.

Wangenisa endlini kaNkulunkulu izinto ezingcwele zikayise nezinto zakhe ezingcwele: isiliva, negolide, nezitsha.

Ngomnyaka wamashumi amathathu nesishiyagalolunye wokubusa kwakhe u-Asa waba nesifo ezinyaweni zakhe ; isifo sakhe sasinzima kakhulu ; kepha akafunanga uJehova esifweni sakhe, izinyanga zodwa.

Ngomnyaka wesithath u wokubusa kwakhe wathuma izikhulu zakhe oBeni Hayili, no-Obadiya, noZakariya, noNethaneli, noMikhaya ukuba zifundise emizini yakwaJuda,

Wayesewela uJehoramu nezinduna zakhe, nazo zonke izinqola zakhe zinaye; wavuka ebusuku, wabachitha abakwa-Edomi abamhaqileyo kanye nezinduna zezinqola.

Emva kwakho konke lokho uJehova wamshaya ezibilinini zakhe ngesifo esingenakwelashwa.

Kwathi ekuhambeni kwezinsuku ng esikhathi sokufika ekugcineni kweminyaka emibili , izibilini zakhe zaphuma kuye ngesifo sakhe , wafa ngobuhlungu obukhulu. Abantu bakhe abamshiselanga lutho njengokushiselwa kwawoyise.

AmaLevi ayakuyizungeza inkosi nxazonke , yilowo nalowo abe nezikhali zakhe esandleni sakhe ; ongena endlini makabulawe ; yibani nenkosi ekungeneni kwayo nasekuphumeni kwayo.

wabuka; bheka, inkosi yayimi ngasensikeni yayo ekungeneni , izikhulu nabamacilongo bengasenkosini ; bonke abantu bezwe bathokoza , bakhalisa amacilongo; abahlabeleli babetha izinto zokubethwa , bahola ukuhlabelela kwendumiso. U-Athaliya wayeseklebhula izingubo zakhe , wathi: Ngugobe! Ngugobe!

Bonke abantu baya endlini ka Bali, bayibhidliza, baphahlaza ama -altare akhe nezithombe zakhe , babulala uMathani umpristi kaBali phambi kwama - altare.

Lapho sebemukile kuye ngokuba bamshiya egula kakhulu izinceku zakhe zamenzela ugobe ngenxa yegazi lamadodana kaJehoyada umpristi, zambulala embhedeni wakhe, wafa; bammbela emzini kaDavide, kodwa abammbelanga emathuneni amakhosi.

Kwathi lapho um buso usuqinisiwe kuye , wazibulala izinceku zakhe ezaziyibulele inkosi uyise.

UJothamu waba namandla , ngokuba walungisa izindlela zakhe phambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe.

Ezinye izindaba zikaJothamu , nakho konke ukulwa kwakhe , nezindlela zakhe, bheka, zilotshiwe encwadini yamakhosi akwa-Israyeli nakwaJuda.

Ezinye izindaba zakhe nazo zonke izin dlela zakhe, ezokuqala nezokugcina, bheka, zilotshiwe encwadini yamakhosi akwaJuda nakwa-Israyeli.

Madodana ami , ningadebeseli, ngokuba nina uJehova unikhethile ukuba nime phambi kwakhe, nimkhonze, nibe yizikhonzi zakhe, nishise impepho.

Ngase ngifumana okubaba kunokufa : owesifazane onhliziyo yakhe iyizingibe namane tha, nezandla zakhe ziyizibopho ; omuhle phambi kukaNkulunkulu uyakuphunyuka kuye, kepha isoni siyakubanjwa nguye.

welulekana nezikhulu zakhe namaqhawe akhe ukuba bavimbe amanzi emithombo eyayingaphandle komuzi; bamsiza.

Izinceku zakhe zazikhuluma nokunye okuphambene noJehova uNkulunkulu nenceku yakhe uHezekiya.

Ezinye izindaba zikaHezekiya nezenzo zakhe ezinhle , bheka, zilotshiwe embonweni ka-Isaya umprofethi, indodana ka-Amose, encwadini yamakhosi akwaJuda nakwa-Israyeli.

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.

Izinceku zakhe zamenzela ugobe, zambulala endlini yakhe.

Inkosi yema endaweni yayo , yenza isivumelwano phambi kukaJehova ukumlandela uJehova nokugcina imiyalo yakhe , nobufakazi bakhe, nezimiso zakhe ngayo yonke inhl iziyo yayo nangawo wonke umphefumulo wayo ukuba iwenze amazwi esivumelwano ayelotshwe kule ncwadi.

UJosiya wazisusa zonke izinengiso emazweni onke akwa -Israyeli, wenza ukuba bonke abafunyanwa kwa -Israyeli bakhonze , bamkhonze uJehova uNkulunkulu wabo . Zonke izinsuku zakhe abasukanga ekumlandeleni uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise.

Izikhulu zakhe zabanika abantu , nabapristi, namaLevi iminikelo yesihle . OHilikiya, noZakariya, noJehiyeli, abaphathi bendlu kaNkulunkulu, babanika abapristi amawundlu ayizinkulungwa ne ezimbili namakhulu ayisithupha nezinkabi ezingamakhulu amathathu, kube ngokweminikelo yephasika.

Ezinye izindaba zikaJosiya , nezenzo zakhe ezinhle nj engokulotshiweyo emthethweni kaJehova,

nezindaba zakhe , ezokuqala nezokugcina , bheka, zilotshiwe encwadini yamakhosi akwa-Israyeli nakwaJuda.

Ngiyakuba njengamazolo ku-Israyeli; uyakukhahlela njengomnduze, enabise izimpande zakhe njengeLebanoni.

Ngiyakunquma umahluleli phakathi kwakhe, ngibulale zonke izikhulu zakhe kanye naye, usho uJehova.

UJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise wathuma kubo ngezandla zezithunywa zakhe, ethuma njalonjalo, ngokuba waha wukela abantu bakhe nendawo yakhe yokuhlala;

Abasele enkembeni wabathumbela eBabele ; baba y izinceku zakhe nezamadodana akhe, kwaze kwabusa umbuso wasePheresiya

Ake usibuzele kuJehova , ngokuba uNebukadinesari inkosi yaseBabele usihlasele; mhlawumbe uJehova angenza kithi njengazo zonke izimangaliso zakhe ukuba akhuphuke, asuke kithi.

Ngasemuva, usho uJehova , ngiyakunikela uSedekiya inkosi yakwaJuda , nezinceku zakhe , nabantu abasele kulo muzi esifweni , nasenkembeni, nasendlaleni, nasesandleni sikaNebukadinesari inkosi yaseBabele , nasesandleni sezitha zabo , nasesandleni sabafuna ukuphila kwabo , abashaye ngosiko lwenkemba, angabasindisi, angabahawukeli, angabi namusa kubo.

UJehova unguNkulunkul u oshisekelayo nophindiselayo ; uJehova uyaphindisela, ugcwele ukufutheka; uJehova uphindisela kwabamelene naye, ugcinela izitha zakhe intukuthelo.

Wayesethi kubo uJesu : Umprofethi kadelelwa ngaphandle kwasezweni lakubo, nasezihlotsheni zakhe, nasendlini yakwabo.

Kwathi sekufikile usuku oluhle, lapho uHerode ngosuku lokuzalwa kwakhe ezenzela idili izikhulu zakhe, nezinduna zempi, nabanumzane baseGalile,

Izingubo zakhe zacwazimula zaba mhlophe qw a, ngangokuba umhlanzi wasemhlabeni angezenze zibe mhlophe kangaka.

Kunjengomuntu owahambela kwelinye izwe ; washiya indlu yakhe , wanika izinceku zakhe amandla , yileyo naleyo wayinika umsebenzi wayo , wayala umlindisango ukuba alinde.

Khona umpristi omkhulu waklebhula izingubo zakhe , wathi: Sisaswelelani ofakazi na?

Abakhelene naye nezihlobo zakhe bezwa ukuthi iNkosi yenze isihawu sayo saba sikhulu kuye, bathokoza naye.
