Nanxa ngiya nginilungisela indawo , ngobuye ngize , nginibuyisele kimi ukuba lapho ngikhona nibe khona nani.

Ngokuba njengonyazi , nxa lunyazima kwenye indawo phansi kwezulu , lukhanya luze lufike kwenye indawo phansi kwezulu , yoba njalo iNdodana yomuntu ngosuku lwayo.

Wazibula ngendodana , wayembesa, wayilalisa emkhombeni , ngokuba bantula indawo endlini yezihambi.

Wanikwa incwadi ka -Isaya umprofethi , wayivula incwadi , wafumana indawo okulotshwe kuyo ukuthi:

Ayesemyisa endaweni yaseGolgotha okungukuthi ngokuhunyushwa iNdawo Yekhanda.

Kepha yathi kubo : Ningethuki; nifuna uJesu waseNazaretha obebethelwe esiphambanweni; uvukile; kakho lapha ; bhekani nansi indawo lapho bebembeke khona.

Nayiphi indawo engayikunamukela , nalapho bengayikunizwa khona , anothi nimuk a kuyo , nivuthulule uthuli oluphansi kwezinyawo zenu , kube ngubufakazi kubo.

Esefikile endaweni ethiwa iGolgotha okungukuthi iNdawo Yekhanda,

kakho lapha, ngokuba uvukile njengokusho kwakhe ; zanini nibone indawo lapho ebelele khona.

Uzakubangenisa, ubatshale entabeni yefa lakho , indawo ozenzele yona , Jehova, ukuba uhlale kuyo, indlu engcwele, Nkosi, eziyimisile izandla zakho.

Kepha uma ebengamqamekeli, uNkulunkulu emnikela nje esandleni sakhe, ngiyakukumisela indawo ayakubalekela kuyo.

Uyakuphanyeka isihenqo phansi kwezinkibaniso , uwungenise umphongolo wobufakazi khona phakathi kwesihenqo , isihenqo sinahlukanisele indawo engcwele nendawo engcwelengcwele.

UJehova wathi: Bheka, nansi indawo kimi; uyakuma edwaleni.

Wathi: Ngilapha. Wayesethi: Ungasondeli lapha; khumula izicathulo zakho ezinyaweni zakho, ngokuba indawo omi kuyo ingumhlabathi ongcwele.

ngehle ukuba ngibophule esandleni sabaseGibithe , ngibakhuphule kulelo zwe, ngibayise ezweni elihle elibanzi , izwe elichichima ubisi nezinyosi , indawo yamaKhanani , neyamaHeti, neyama-Amori, neyamaPherizi, neyamaHivi, neyamaJebusi.

Ngokuba uma uthula nokuthula ngalesi sikhathi, ukukhululwa nokophulwa kwabaJuda kuyakuvela kwenye indawo , wena nendlu kayihlo nibhubhe . Ngubani okwaziyo , uma ungafikanga embusweni ngenxa yesikhathi esinjengalesi na?

Indawo yabafileyo ngaphansi inyakazisiw e ukuba ikuhlangabez e ekufikeni kwakho, ikuvusele izithunzi , zonke izikhulu zomhlaba , isukumise onke amakhosi ezizwe ezihlalweni zawo zobukhosi.

Wenzani lapha , futhi unobani laph a ukuba uziqophele lapha ithuna na ? Uziqophela ithuna lakhe phezulu, uzikipilitela indawo yokuhlala edwaleni!

Ngiyakwenza ukwahlulela kube ngumucu wokulinganisa , nokulunga kube ngumthofu wokumisa , isichotho sihlwithe isiphephelo samanga , amanzi akhukhule indawo yokucasha.

Indawo yokushisela kade yahlelwa , yebo, yalungiselwa nenkosi ; uyenze yajula, yaba banzi; igoqo layo lingumlilo nezinkuni eziningi , nokuphefumula kukaJehova kunjengomfula wesibabule; kuyayokhela.

Izilwane zasehlane ziyakuhlangana nezimpungushe, nedemoni liyakukhala kumngane walo, kwakhe khona umkhovu, uzitholele indawo yokuphumula.

Ngokuba indawo yabafileyo ayikubongi , nokufa akukudumisi ; abehlela egodini ababheki ukuthembeka kwakho.

Abantwana bokusweziselwa kwakh o basayakusho ezindlebeni zakho ukuthi: Indawo ingumcingo kimi; sukani kimi ukuba ngihlale.

UJehova uyakudala phezu kwayo yonke indawo y entaba yaseSiyoni naphezu kwemihlangano yayo ifu nomusi emini nokukha nya kwelangabi lomlilo ebusuku, ngokuba phezu kwayo yonke inkazimulo kuyakuba khona isivikelo.

Yenza ibe banzi indawo yetende lakho ; mabazelule izindwangu zamakhaya akho, ungazibambezeli, welule izinta mbo zakho , uziqinise izikhonkwane zakho.

Wabeka isithombe sakho emva kwezicabha nezinsika , wazambulela omunye kunami, wakhwela embhedeni , wawandisa, wavumelana nabo , wayithanda imibhede yabo, wazibonelela indawo.

Ngalokho indawo yabafileyo yandisile isifiso sayo , yavula umlomo wayo ngokungalinganiswayo; kwehlela kuyo amakhosi abo , nesixuku sabo esixokozelayo, kanye nabajabulayo phakathi kwabo.

Wo kubona abahlanganisa indlu nendlu , besondeza insimu nensimu , kuze kungabe kusaba khona indawo, kwakhe nina nodwa emhlabeni!

Inkazimulo yaseLebanoni iyakuza kuwe , umsayipuresi, nomthidari, nomkhoba kanyekanye , ukuyihlobisa indawo yendlu yami engcwele , ngiyikhazimulise indawo yezinyawo zami.

ISharoni liyakuba yisibaya sezimvu , nesiGodi sase -Akori indawo yokubuthisa kwezinkomo kubantu bami abangifunayo.

Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Izulu liyisihlalo sami sobukhosi , umhlaba uyisenabelo sezinyawo zami ; iphi leyo ndlu ebeniyakungakhela yona , iphi indawo yami yokuphumula, na?

Kuyakuthi ngalolo suku yonke indawo lapho kukhona imivini eyinkulungwane, elingene nezi nhlamvu eziyinkulungwane zesiliva , ibe ngeyamakhakhasi nameva.

Yonke indawo lapho amathe onyawo lwakho eyakunyathela khona iyakuba ngeyenu, kusukela e hlane naseLebanoni naseMfuleni , umfula u -Ewufrathe, kuze kube selwandle olungasemuva, lube ngumkhawulo wenu.

Uma indawo uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ayakuyikhetha ukuba abeke kuyo igama lakhe ikude nawe , uyakuhlaba emhlambini wakho nasezimvini zakho akunike khona uJehova , njengalokho ngakuyala , udle phakathi kwamasango akho njengesifiso somphefumulo wakho.

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

Uma indlela ikude nawe , ungenamandla okukuthwala , ngokuba ikude kakhulu nawe indawo uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ayakuyikhetha ukuba alibeke kuyo igama lakhe, lapho uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ekubusisa,

Makube khona indawo ngaphandle kwekamu , lapho uyakuphumela khona ukuya ngaphandle,

indawo ye -altare abelenzile khona kuqala ; u-Abrama wakhuleka lapho egameni likaJehova.

Mhlawumbe kukhona abalungileyo abangamashumi ayisihlanu phakathi komuzi; imbala uyakuyibhubhisa, ungayiyeki indawo ngenxa yabalungileyo abangamashumi ayisihlanu abakuyo na?

UJehova wathi: Uma ngif umana eSodoma abalungileyo abangamashumi ayisihlanu phakathi komuzi, ngiyakuyekela indawo yonke ngenxa yabo.

Ngosuku lwesithathu u -Abrahama waphakamisa amehlo akhe , wayibona indawo isekude.

Ngingumfokazi nozulane phakathi kwenu ; ngipheni indawo yethuna phakathi kwenu ukuba ngimmbele ofileyo wami, angabikho ebusweni bami.

Wena uyindodakazi kabani na ? Ake ungitshele. Kukhona indawo endlini kayihlo ukuba silale na?

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

UJehova uNkulunkulu wamehlis ela umuntu ubuthongo obunzima , walala; wayesethatha olunye lwezimbambo zakhe, wavala indawo ngenyama.

UJakobe wayiqamba indawo lapho uNkulunkulu akhuluma naye khona ngokuthi iBethele.

Wakha khona i -altare, wayibiza indawo ngokuthi i -Eli Bethele , ngokuba uNkulunkulu wabonakala kuye khona mhla ebaleka ebusweni bomfowabo.

Inkosi kaJosefa yamthatha, yamfaka etilongweni, indawo lapho iziboshwa zenkosi zaziboshwa khona; waba khona etilongweni.

Wazibeka ukuba zilindwe endlini yenduna yemilindanko si etilongweni , indawo lapho wayeboshwe khona uJosefa.

UJosefa wabahlalisa uyise nabafowabo , wabapha indawo ezweni laseGibithe, izwe elihle kunalo lonke , izwe likaRamsese, njengalokho uFaro ebayalile.

Wabona indawo yakuphumula ukuthi inhle , nezwe ukuthi limnandi ; wafolisa ihlombe ukuba athwale, waba yinceku yempoqo.

wazakhela iqhugwane, wazenzela indawo ephakemeyo ezigcawini zonke.

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

Ngase ngithi kubo: Iyini indawo ephakemeyo eniya kuyo na ? Lase libizwa igama layo ngokuthi indawo ephakemeyo kuze kube namuhla.

Amanzi awukhulisa , utwa lwawuphakamisa ; imifula yawo yahamb a yazungeza indawo yokutshalwa kwawo ; yayisithuma imisele yayo kuyo yonke imithi yasendle.

Kuyakuthi ngalolo suku ngimnike uGogi lapho indawo yethuna , kwa- Israyeli, isiGodi Sabadlulayo ngasempumalanga kolwandle , ivimbe abadlulayo, bembele khon a uGogi naso sonke isixuku sakhe , bayibize ngokuthi isiGodi saseHamoni Gogi.

Indawo egandayiweyo yayiseceleni kwamasango , ilingene nobude bamasango; lokhu kwakuyindawo egandayiweyo ephansi.

Wayeselinganisa ind lu, ubude bayo buyizingalo eziyikhulu ; indawo eyahlukanisiweyo nesakhiwo kanye nezindonga zaso , ubude bakho babuyizingalo eziyikhulu,

Uhlonze lodonga olwalungolwamakamelo ezinhlangothi ngaphandle lwaluyizingalo eziyisihlanu ; indawo eseleyo yayingeyamakamelo ezinhlangothi endlu.

Wayesethi kimi : Amakamelo asenyakatho namakamelo aseningizimu aphambi kwendawo eyahlukanisiweyo mawabe ngamakamelo angcwele, lapho abapristi abaseduze noJehova beyakudla khona okungcwelengcwele , babeke khona okungcwelengcwele , nomnikelo wempuphu , nomnikelo wesono, nomnikelo wecala, ngokuba indawo ingcwele.

UJehova wathi kimi : Ndodana yomuntu , beka inhl iziyo yakho , ubone ngamehlo akho, uzwe ngezindlebe zakho konke engikukhuluma kuwe ngazo zonke izimiso zendlu kaJehova nangayo yonke imithetho yayo , uqaphele indawo yendlu yokungena nazo zonke izindawo zokuphuma zendlu engcwele.

Wayesengingenisa ngendawo yokungena eseceleni kwesango emakamelweni angcwele abapristi , abheke ngasenyakatho ; bheka, kwakukhona lapho indawo ngasemuva ngasentshonalanga.

Wathi kimi: Nansi indawo lapho abapristi beyakuphekela khona umnikelo wecala nomnikelo wesono, nalapho beyakwenza khona umnikelo wempuphu, ukuze bangawuphumiseli egcekeni elingaphandle, bangcwelise abantu.

Bheka, kusondela izwi lombiko , nokuzamazama okukhulu okuvela ezweni lasenyakatho, ukuba kwenze imizi yakwaJuda ibe yincithakalo, indawo yokuhlala kwamakhanka.

Indawo yendlu yethu engcwel e iyisihlalo sobukhosi esinenkazimul o esiphakemeyo.

Abantu bami babe yizimvu ezilahlekileyo; abelusi babo babadukisile , babazulazulisa ezintabeni , basuka entabeni , baya egqumeni , bakhohlwa indawo yabo yokuphumula.

Ngalokho bheka, izinsuku ziyeza, usho uJehova, elingasayikubizwa ngazo ngokuthi iThofeti nesigodi sendodana kaHinomu kepha isiGodi Sokubulala , ngokuba bayakumbela eThofeti, lokhu ingekho enye indawo.

Uma ngithemba ukuthi indawo yabafileyo iyindlu yami , ngendlalele ukhukho lwami ebumnyameni,

Impela zinjalo izindlu zaboni; injalo indawo engamazi uNkulunkulu.

Ukoma nokushisa kuyaqeda amanzi eqhwa; kanjalo indawo yabafileyo labo abonileyo.

Indawo yabafileyo ize phambi kwakhe, nendawo yokubhubha ayinasisibekelo.

Kepha ukuhlakanipha kufumanisekaphi? Iphi indawo yokuqonda na?

Ukuhlakanipha kuvelaphi na? Indawo yokuqonda iphi na?

UNkulunkulu uyaqonda indlela yakho; yena uyazi indawo yakho.

Emihleni yakho uyalile ukusa, wazisa umthende wokusa indawo yawo

Iphi indlela eya lapho kuhlala khona ukukhanya , nobumnyama-ke, iphi indawo yabo,

Kasayikubuyela endlini yakhe; indawo yakhe ayisayikumazi.

Izimpande zakhe ziyathandela enqwabeni yamatshe , aqhekeze indawo yamatshe.

Obalekelayo komunye waleyo mizi uyakuma ngasesikhaleni sesango lomuzi, akhulume indaba yakhe ezindlebeni zamalunga alowo muzi , angene naye emzini, amuphe indawo ukuba ahlale phakathi kwabo.

Isikhulu sebandla likaJehova sathi kuJoshuwa : Khumula isicathulo sakho onyaweni lwakho , ngokuba indawo omi kuyo ingcwele . UJoshuwa wenze njalo-ke.

Zonke izinsuku isifo sisekuye uyakuba ngongcolile; ungcolile; uyakuhlala yedwa; indawo yokuhlala kwakhe iyakuba ngaphandle kwekamu.

uyakuhlaba imvu yeduna endaweni lapho kuhlatshwa khona umnikelo wesono nomnikelo wokushiswa, indawo engcwele, ngokuba umnikelo wecala ungowompristi njengomnikelo wesono; ungcwelengcwele.

enzele indawo engcwele ukubuyisana ngenxa yokungcola kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli nangenxa yeziphambeko zabo ezonweni zabo zonke ; akenzele njalo netende lokuhlangana elihlezi nabo phakathi kokungcola kwabo.

Eseqedile ukwenzela indawo engcwele ukubuyisana, netende lokuhlangana ne-altare, uyakunikela ngempongo ezwayo;
