Wathi-ke: Uyazi wena ukuthi umbuso wawungowami nokuthi wonke u - Israyeli wabhekisa kimi ubuso bakhe ukuba ngibuse ; kepha umbuso usuguquliwe, sewaba ngowomfowethu, ngokuba wawuthola kuJehova.

UJehova uya kulibuyisela igazi lakhe ekhanda lakhe , ngokuba wasukela amadoda amabili alungileyo amahle kunaye , wawabulala ngenkemba, ubaba uDavide engazi: u-Abineri indodana kaNeri, induna yempi yakwa-Israyeli, no- Amasa indodana kaJetheri, induna yempi yakwaJuda.

ukuze uJehova aqinise izwi lakhe alikhuluma ngami ngokuthi : U ma abantwana bakho begcina indlela yabo ukuba bahambe phambi kwami eqinisweni ngayo yonke inhliziyo yabo nangawo wonke umphefumulo wabo , awuyikuntula muntu -- washo njalo -- esihlalweni sobukhosi sakwa-Israyeli.

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.

U-Israyeli wonke we zwa leso sahlulelo esenziwe yinkosi ; bayesaba inkosi, ngokuba babona ukuthi ukuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu kwakukuyo ekwahluleleni kwayo.

Inkosi uSolomoni yabusa u-Israyeli wonke.

OJuda no -Israyeli babe baningi ngangesihlaba thi solwandle ngobuningi , bedla, bephuza, bejabula.

OJuda no -Israyeli bahlala belondekile , kwaba yilowo nalowo phansi komvini wakhe nomkhiwane wakhe , kusukela kwaDani kuze kube seBeri Sheba, zonke izinsuku zikaSolomoni.

USolomoni wayenezinduna eziyishumi nambili phezu kwabo bonke abakwa- Israyeli ezazifunela inkosi nabendlu yayo ukudla ; yileyo naleyo yayifuna ukudla inyanga inye ngomnyaka.

Inkosi uSolomoni yabiza izisebenzi kubo bonke abakwa -Israyeli; izisebenzi zaba ngabantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amathathu.

Kwathi ngomnyaka wamakhulu a mane namashumi ayisishiyagalombili emva kokuphuma kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe , ngomnyaka wesine wokubusa kukaSolomoni phezu kwabakwa-Israyeli, ngenyanga kaZivi eyinyanga yesibili, waqala ukwakha indlu kaJehova.

ngiyakuhlala phakathi kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, ngingabashiyi abantu bami u-Israyeli.

Khona uSolomoni wabutha amalunga akwa -Israyeli nezinhloko zezizwe , izikhulu zawoyise babantwana bakwa -Israyeli enko sini uSolomoni eJerusalema, ukuba bakhuphule umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova emzini kaDavide oyiSiyoni.

Inkosi yayisiphenduka, yalibusisa lonke ibandla lakwa -Israyeli, lonke ibandla lakwa-Israyeli, lalimi.

Yathi: Makabongwe uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli owakhuluma ngomlomo wakhe kuDavide ubaba, ukugcwalisile ngesandla sakhe, ethi:

Kusukela osukwini engakhipha ngalo abantu bami u -Israyeli eGibithe angikhethanga muzi ezizweni zonke zakwa -Israyeli ukwakha indlu ukuba igama lami libe khona lapho , kepha ngamkhetha uDavide abe phezu kwabantu bami u-Israyeli.

Kwakusenhliziyweni kaDavide ubaba ukwakhela i gama likaJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli indlu.

Onke amadoda akwa -Israyeli abuthana enkosini uSo lomoni emkhosini wasenyangeni ka-Ethanimi eyinyanga yesikhombisa.

UJehova uliqinsisile izwi alikhulumayo , ngokuba mina ngivelile esikhundleni sikaDavide ubaba, ngihlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sakwa-Israyeli njengokusho kukaJehova , ngakhele igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli indlu.

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

wathi: Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, akakho unkulunkulu onjengawe phezulu ezulwini nasemhlabeni phansi , ogcina isivumelwano nomusa nezinceku zakho ezihamba phambi kwakho ngayo yonke inhliziyo yazo,

Ngalokho, Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, gcina nenceku yakho uDavide ubaba lokho owakusho kuyo ukuthi : Akuyikunqunywa muntu kuwe emehlweni ami ukuhlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sakwa -Israyeli, uma kuphela abantwana bakho beqaphela indlela yabo ukuba bahambe phambi kwami , njengalokho wena uhambe phambi kwami.

Ngalokho, Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, maliqiniseke izwi lakho owalikhuluma encekwini yakho uDavide ubaba.

Esefikile onke amalunga akwa-Israyeli, abapristi baphakamisa umphongolo.

Kulalele ukunxusa kwenceku yakho nokwabantu bakho u -Israyeli abayakukukhuleka bebhekene nale ndawo , ukuzwe usendaweni yakho yokuhlala ezulwini, nalapho usuzwile, uthethelele.

Lapho abantu bakho u -Israyeli benqotshwa yisitha, ngokuba bonile kuwe, kepha bese bebuya bephindela kuwe , balivume igama lakho , bakhuleke, banxuse kuwe kule ndlu,

mawuzwe wena ezulwini , uthethelele isono sa bantu bakho u -Israyeli, ubabuyisele ezweni owalinika oyise.

mawuzwe wena ezulwin i, uthethelele isono sezinceku zakho nesabantu bakho u -Israyeli, lapho ubafundisa indlela enhle abayakuhamba ngayo , uthume imvula ezweni lakho obanike abantu bakho libe yifa labo.

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,

Futhi owezizwe ongesiye owabantu bakho u -Israyeli, lapho evela ezweni elikude ngenxa yegama lakho

mawuzwe wena ezulwini , indawo yakho yokuhlala , wenze njengakho konke lo wezizwe akhala ngakho kuwe, ukuze bonke abantu bomhlaba bazi igama lakho , bakwesabe wena njengabantu bakho u -Israyeli nokuze bazi ukuthi le ndlu engiyakhileyo ibiziwe ngegama lakho.

Inkosi uSolomoni nayo yonke inhlangano yakwa -Israyeli eyayihlangene kuyo babe nayo phambi komphongolo , behlaba izimvu nezinkabi ezingenakulotshwa, zingenakubalwa ngobuningi bazo.

ukuba amehlo akho avulekele uku nxusa kwenceku yakho nokunxusa kwabantu bakho u-Israyeli ukubezwa kukho konke abakhala ngakho kuwe.

Wema, wabusisa lonke ibandla lakwa-Israyeli ngezwi elikhulu, wathi:

Makabongwe uJehova onike abantu bakhe u -Israyeli ukuphumula njengakho konke akushiloyo ; akuwanga izwi elilodwa lakho konke ukukhuluma kwakhe okuhle akusho ngesandla sikaMose inceku yakhe.

Lawo mazwi ami enginxuse ngawo phambi kukaJehova mawabe seduze noJehova uNkulunkulu wethu imini nobusuku ukuba avume inceku yakhe , avume nabantu bakhe u-Israyeli njengokudingeka kwemihla ngemihla,

Inkosi naye wonke u -Israyeli enayo banikela ngomhlatshelo phambi kukaJehova.

USolomoni wanikela kube ngumhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula, owanikela ngawo kuJehova , izinkunzi eziyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nambili nezimvu eziyizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amabili . Inkosi nabo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bahlambulula-ke indlu kaJehova.

USolomoni wagubha -ke umkhosi ngaleso sikhathi naye wonke u -Israyeli enaye, ibandla elikhulu , kusukela ekuyeni eHamati kuze semfuleni waseGibithe, ngaphambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wethu izinsuku eziyisikhombisa nezinsuku eziyisikhombisa, okungukuthi izinsuku eziyishumi nane.

Ngosuku lwesishiyagalombili wabamukisa abantu , bayibusisa inkosi, baya ematendeni abo bejabula , bethokoza ngenhliziyo ngakho konke okuhle uJehova akwenzile kuDavide inceku yakhe naku-Israyeli abantu bakhe.

Kwakungekho lutho emphongolweni , kuphela izibhebhe ezimbili zamatshe ezabekwa khona nguMose eHorebe , lapho uJehova enza isivumelwano nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ekuphumeni kwabo eGibithe.

Abantu bonke abaseleyo kuma Amori , namaHeti, namaPherizi, namaHivi, namaJebusi, abangesibo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli,

abantwana babo abasala ezweni emva kwabo , abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ababengenamandla okubaqeda , kubona uSolomoni wabiza izisebenzi eziyizigqila kuze kube namuhla.

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

ngiyakusimisa isihlalo sobukhosi sombuso wakho kwa -Israyeli kuze kube phakade, njengalokho ngasho kuDavi de uyi hlo ukuthi : Akuyikunqunywa muntu kuwe esihlalweni sobukhosi sakwa-Israyeli.

ngiyakumnquma u -Israyeli ezweni engimnike lona ; nale ndlu engiyingcwelisele igama lami ngiyakuyilahla ebusweni bami , u-Israyeli abe yisaga nesifenqo phakathi kwabantu bonke.

AmaFilisti alwa no -Israyeli; abantu bakwa -Israyeli babaleka phambi kwamaFilisti, bawa begwaziwe entabeni yaseGilibowa.

Lapho bonke abantu bakwa -Israyeli ababe sesigodini bebona ukuthi babaleka nokuthi uSawule namadodana akhe bafile , bashiya imizi yabo , babaleka; amaFilisti afika, ahlala kuyo.

Wonke u -Israyeli wabuthana kuDavide , wathi: Bheka, thina siyithambo lakho nenyama yakho.

Yilaba abayizinhloko zamaqhawe uDavide ayenazo , zibambelela kuye ngamandla ebukhosini bakhe kanye naye wonke u-Israyeli ukumbeka inkosi njengezwi likaJehova ngo-Israyeli.

Nangesikhathi esidlulileyo uSawule eseyinkosi , nguwe o wakhipha nowangenisa u -Israyeli; uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho wathi kuwe : Wena uyakwalusa abantu bami u -Israyeli, wena uyakuba ngumbusi wabantu bami u-Israyeli.

Kwase kufika onke amalunga akwa -Israyeli enkosini eHebroni ; uDavide wenza isivumelwano nawo eHe broni phambi kukaJehova; amgcoba uDavide ukuba abe yinkosi kwa -Israyeli njen gezwi likaJehova ngesandla sikaSamuweli.

UDavide naye wonke u -Israyeli baya eJerusalema eliyiJebusi ; amaJebusi ayakhe kulelo zwe ayeselapho.

Kubantwana bakwa -Isakare ngabazi ukuqonda izikhathi ukuba bazi okufanele ukwenziwa ngu -Israyeli; izinhloko zabo zazingamakhulu amabili; bonke abafowabo balalela izwi labo.

Onke lawo madoda empi , angahlela impi , afika eHebroni ngezinhliziyo ezipheleleyo ukubeka uDavide inkosi kwa -Israyeli; nabo bonke abaseleyo bakwa-Israyeli babenhliziyonye ukumbeka uDavide inkosi.

Ababe seduze nabo kuze kube kwa -Isakare, nakwaZebuloni, nakwaNafetali baletha isinkwa ngezimbongolo , nangamakamela, nangeminyuzi, nangezinkabi, nokudla kwempuphu, nezigaxa zamakhiwane , nezigaxa zezithelo zomvini ezomileyo , newayini, namafutha, nezinkabi, nezimvu eziningi, ngokuba kwakukhona ukuthokoza kwa-Israyeli.

UDavide wathi kulo lonke ibandla lakwa -Israyeli: Uma kukuhle kini , uma kuvela kuJehova uNkulunkulu wethu, masihlakazeke sithumele kubafowethu abasele ezweni lonke lakwa -Israyeli kanye nabapristi namaLevi emizini yabo enamadlelo ukuba babuthane kithi,

UDavide wayesebutha wonke u -Israyeli kusukela eSihori laseGibithe kuze kube sekuyeni eHamati ukususa umphongolo kaNkulunkulu eKiriyati Jeharimi.

UDavide wenyukela kanye naye wonke u -Israyeli e Bahala, okungukuthi iKiriyati Jeharimi elalingelakwaJuda , ukukhuphula khona umphongolo kaNkulunkulu uJehova ohlezi phezu kwamakherubi , owawubizwa ngegama lakhe.

UDavide naye wonke u-Israyeli bathokoza ebusweni bukaNkulunkulu ngamandla onke ngamahubo, nangamahabhu, nangezingubhu, nangezigubhu, nangamasimbali, nangamacilongo.

UDavide waqonda ukuthi uJehova wayemmisile impela ukuba abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli, ngokuba umbuso wakhe waphakanyiselwa phezulu ngenxa yabantu bakhe u-Israyeli.

AmaFilisti esezwile ukuthi uDavide ugcotshiwe ukuba abe yinkosi kwa - Israyeli wonke , onke amaFilisti enyuka ukumfuna uDavide ; uDavide wakuzwa, waphuma ukuwahlasela.

Nina niyizinhloko zezindlu zawoyise bamaLevi ; zingcweliseni nina nabafowenu ukuba niwukhuphulele umphongolo kaJehova uNkulunkulu ka- Israyeli endaweni engiyilungisele wona.

Base bezingcwelisa abapristi namaLevi ukuba bawukhuphule umphongolo kaJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.

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

Wonke u -Israyeli wawukhuphula kanjalo umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova ngokukhamuluka nangezwi lomtshingo , nangamacilongo, nangamasimbali, ebetha izingubhu namahabhu.

UDavide wabuthela wonke u -Israyeli eJerusalema ukukhuphulela umphongolo kaJehova endaweni yawo awulungisele yona.

nina nzalo ka-Israyeli, inceku yakhe , nina bantwana bakaJakobe , abakhethiweyo bakhe.

wasiqinisa kuJakobe, saba ngumthetho, naku-Israyeli, saba yisivumelwano esiphakade,

Wabela bonke abantu bakwa -Israyeli, abesilisa nabesifazane , isinkwa saba sinye, nesicubu senyama, nesigaxa sezithelo zomvini ezomileyo.

Makabongwe uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, kusukela phakade kuze kube phakade. Bonke abantu bathi: Amen, bamdumisa uJehova.

Wabela amaLevi athile ukukhonza phambi komphongolo kaJehova ukuba amkhumbule, ambonge, amdumise uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli:

ukuba banikele njalo ngeminikelo yokushiswa phezu kwe -altare lomnikelo wokushiswa ekuseni nakusihlwa njengakho konke okulotshiweyo emthethweni kaJehova ayala ngawo u-Israyeli,

kusukela emihl eni engayaleza ngayo abahluleli ukuba babe phezu kwabantu bami u -Israyeli; ngiyakunqoba zonke izitha zakho . Futhi ngiyakutshela ukuthi uJehova uyakukwakhela indlu.

Yisiphi isizwe emhlabeni esinjengabantu bakho u -Israyeli, uNkulunkulu aya ukuzihlengela bona babe ngabantu bakhe , ukukwenzela igama ngezinto ezinkulu nezesabekayo ngokuxosha abezizwe ebusweni babantu bakho owabahlenga eGibithe, na?

Ngokuba abantu bakho u-Israyeli wabenza babe ngabantu bakho kuze kube phakade, wena Jehova ube nguNkulunkulu wabo.

Maliqiniseke, libe likhulu igama lakho kuze kube phakade, ukuze kuthiwe: UJehova Sebawoti unguNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, yebo, uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli, nendlu kaDavide inceku yakho iqinisiwe phambi kwakho.

ngokuba angihlalanga ndlu kusukela osukwini engakhuphula ngalo u - Israyeli kuze kube namuhla , kepha ngangisematendeni, nasematabernakele ngamatabernakele.

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?

Ngalokho uyakusho kanje encekwini yami uDavide , uthi: U sho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uthi: Mina ngakuthatha edlelweni ekwaluseni izimvu ukuba ube ngumbusi wabantu bami u-Israyeli;

Ngiyakumisela abantu bami u -Israyeli indawo , ngibatshale ukuba bahlale endaweni yabo , bangabe besanyakaziswa ; futhi abantu ababi abasayikubachitha njengakuqala,

UDavide wabusa phezu kuka -Israyeli wonke , waphatha ukwahlulela nokulunga kubo bonke abantu bakhe.

UJowabe esebona ukuthi impi ibhekene naye ngaphambili nangasemuva , wakhetha kwabakhethekileyo bonke bakwa -Israyeli, wabahlela ukuba balwe nama-Aramu;

Ama-Aramu esebonile ukuthi anqotshiwe phambi kuka -Israyeli, athuma izithunywa, akhipha ama -Aramu ayephesheya koMfula noShofaki induna yempi kaHadarezeri phambi kwawo.

UDavide watshelwa , wabutha wonke u -Israyeli, wawela iJordani , wawafikela, wahlela impi ukulwa nawo . UDavide esehlelile impi ukulwa nama-Aramu, alwa naye.

Ama-Aramu abaleka phambi kuka -Israyeli; uDavide wabulala kuma -Aramu izinqola eziyizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa nemigundatshani eyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane, wabulala noShofaki induna yempi.

Lapho izinceku zikaHadarezeri zibonile ukuthi zinqotshiwe phambi kuka - Israyeli, zenza ukuthula noDavide , zamkhonza; ama-Aramu awatha ndanga ukusiza abantwana bakwa-Amoni futhi.

U-Abrahama wazala u-Isaka. Amadodana ka-Isaka: ngo-Esawu no-Israyeli.

Lawa angamakhosi abusa ezweni lakwa -Edomi, kungakabusi nkosi phezu kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli: uBela indodana kaBeyori. Igama lomuzi wakhe laliyiDinihaba.

Wameyisa u-Israyeli; ngalokho uJonathani indodana kaShimeya umfowabo kaDavide wambulala.

USathane wema ukulwa no-Israyeli, wavusa uDavide ukuba abale u-Israyeli.

Zikhethele noma indlala yeminyaka emithathu , noma ukuchithwa yizitha zakho iz inyanga ezintathu uficwa yinkemba yezitha zakho , noma izinsuku ezintathu zenkemba kaJehova nesifo ezweni , ingelosi kaJehova ichithe emikhawulweni yonke yakwa -Israyeli. Manje zibonele izwi engiyakulibuyisela kongithumileyo.

UJehova wayesethuma isifo phezu kuka-Israyeli; kwafa kwa-Israyeli abantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi ayisikhombisa.

UDavide wayesethi kuJowabe nasezinduneni zabantu : Hambani nibale u - Israyeli kusukela eBeri Sheba kuze kube kwaDani, nilethe umumo wabo kimi ukuba ngiwazi.

UJowabe wathi: UJehova makenezele kubantu bakhe, kuphindwe kayikhulu phezu kwalokhu abayikho; kepha, nkosi yami, nkosi, abasizo izinceku zenkosi yami bonke na ? Inkosi yami ifunelani le nto na ? Iyakuba yicala ngani ku - Israyeli na?

Nokho izwi lenkosi lamahlula uJowabe . UJowabe waphuma , wadabula wonke u-Israyeli, wafika eJerusalema.

UJowabe wanika uDavide umumo wabantu ababaliweyo ; wonke u -Israyeli wayeyizinkulungwane eziyinkulungwane nezinkulungw ane eziyikhulu abahloma inkemba ; uJuda wayeyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amane namashumi ayisikhombisa.

Kwaba kubi emehlweni kaNkulunkulu; ngalokho washaya u-Israyeli.

UDavide wathi: Le iyindlu kaJehova uNkulunkulu , leli liyi-altare lomnikelo wokushiswa ka-Israyeli.

uyakwakhela igama lami indlu ; uyakuba yindodana yami , mina ngibe nguyise; ngiyakuqinisa isihlalo sobukhosi sombuso wakhe kwa -Israyeli kuze kube phakade.

Kuphela, uJehova makakuphe ukuhlakanipha nokuqonda , akuyale ngo - Israyeli ukuba ugcine umthetho kaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho.

Khona uyakuphumelela, uma ugcina ukwenza izimiso nezah lulelo uJehova ayala ngazo uMose ngo -Israyeli; qina, ume isibindi ; ungesabi, ungabi naluvalo.

UDavide wayala zonke izikhulu zakwa-Israyeli ukusiza uSolomoni, wathi:

UDavide wayala ukuba babuthe bonke abafokazi ababe sezweni lakwa - Israyeli, wabeka abakhi ukubaza amatshe axhoziweyo ukuba bakhe indlu kaNkulunkulu.

Wayesebiza uSolomoni indodana yakhe , wamyala ukumakhela uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli indlu.

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;

UDavide wayesemdala , esanelisiwe yizinsuku ; wambeka uSolomoni indodana yakhe abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli.

Wabutha zonke izikhulu zakwa-Israyeli kanye nabapristi namaLevi.

Ngokuba uDavide wathi : UJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli unike abantu bakhe ukuphumula; uhlezi eJerusalema kuze kube phakade;

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

KumaJisihari uKhenaniya namadodana akhe babephethe umsebenzi ongaphandle kwa-Israyeli, beyizinduna nabahluleli.

KumaHebroni uHashabiya n abafowabo, amaqhawe anamandla , beyinkulungwane namakhulu ayisikhombisa, babe ngababonisi kwa -Israyeli phesheya kweJordani ngasentshonalanga emsebenzini wonke kaJehova nasenkonzweni yenkosi.

Nampa abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ngomumo wabo , izinhloko zawoyise, nezinduna zezinkulungwane nezamakhulu , nezinduna zabo ezazikhonza inkosi kukho konke okwezigaba , ezazingena, ziphuma inyanga ngenyanga ezinyangeni zonke zomnyaka ; kuleso naleso sigaba zazikhona izinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nane.

Phezu kwezizwe zakwa -Israyeli kwakuyilaba: kwabakwaRubeni u-Eliyazeri indodana kaZikiri wayengumbusi ; kwabakwaSimeyoni nguShefathiya indodana kaMahakha;

kuDani ngu-Azareli indodana kaJerohamu. Yilabo ababe yizinduna zezizwe zakwa-Israyeli.

Kepha uDavide akabalanga umumo waba neminyaka engamashumi amabili nabangaphansi, ngokuba uJehova wayeshilo ukuthi uyakwandisa u -Israyeli ukuba abe ngangezinkanyezi zezulu.

UJowabe indodana kaSe ruya waqala ukubala , kepha akaqedanga; kwaba khona ulaka ngalokho phezu kuka-Israyeli, nomumo awufakwanga encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yenkosi uDavide.

UDavide wabutha zonke izikhulu zakwa -Israyeli, izikhulu zezizwe , nezinduna zezigaba ezazikhonza inkosi , nezinduna zezinkulungwane nezamakhulu, nezinduna zayo yonke imfuyo yenkosi neyamadodana ayo , nezinduna zendlunkulu , namaqhawe, nawo onke am adoda anamandla eJerusalema.

Kodwa uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli wangikhetha endlini yonke kababa ukuba ngibe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli kuze kube phakade; ngokuba ukhethile uJuda ukuba abe ngumbusi , nasendlini kaJuda indlu kababa , naphakathi kwamadodana kababa wangenamela mina ukuba angibeke inkosi kwa - Israyeli wonke,

nasemadodaneni ami onke , ngokuba uJehova ungiphe amadoda na amaningi, ukhethe uSo lomoni indodana yami ukuba ahlale esihlalweni sobukhosi sombuso kaJehova kwa-Israyeli.

Ngalokho emehlweni abo bonke abakwa -Israyeli, ibandla likaJehova , nasezindlebeni zikaNkulunkulu wethu funani nigcine yonke imiyalo kaJehova uNkulunkulu wenu ukuba nidle leli zwe elihle , nilishiye libe yifa labantwana benu emva kwenu kuze kube phakade.

UDavide wayesebonga uJehova phambi kwebandla lonke ; uDavide wathi: Mawubongwe wena Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli ubaba kuze kube phakade.

Jehova, Nkulunkulu ka -Abrahama noka -Isaka noka -Israyeli, obaba, gcina lokhu njalo ezizindlweni zemicabango yenhliziyo yabantu bakho , uqondisele inhliziyo yabo kuwe,

Bamhlabela uJehova imihlatshelo , banikela ngeminikelo yokushiswa kuJehova ngangomuso emva kwalolo suku , izinkunzi eziyinkulungwane , nezinqama eziyinkulungwane, namawundlu ayinkulungwane kanye neminikelo yakho yokuphuzwa, nemihlatshelo eminingi ngo-Israyeli wonke;

USolomoni wayesehlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaJehova njengenkosi esikhundleni sikaDavide uyise, waba nenhlanhla; wonke u-Israyeli wamlalela.

USamuweli akaphindanga ukumbona uSawule waze wafa , kepha uSamuweli wamkhalela uSawule ; uJehova wazisola ukuthi wayembekile uSawule inkosi phezu kuka-Israyeli.

USawule wathi kuma Kheni: Hambani nimuke , nehle kuwo ama -Amaleki, funa nginichithe kanye nawo , ngokuba nabenzela umusa bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ekukhuphukeni kwabo eGibithe . Ayesesuka amaKheni phakathi kwama-Amaleki.

Abantu bakwa -Israyeli bathi : Nimbonile lowo muntu o wenyukile na ? Ngokuba wenyukile ukuyakweyisa u-Israyeli; kuyakuthi umuntu ombulalayo, inkosi imcebise ngengcebo enkulu , imnike indodakazi yayo , iyenze indlu kayise ibe ngekhululekile kwa-Israyeli.

UDavide wakhuluma kubantu ababemi naye , wathi: Kuyakwenziwa ntoni kumuntu obulala lowo mFilisti , asuse ihlazo kwa -Israyeli, na? Ngokuba ngubani lowo mFilisti ongasokile ukuba ayeyise impi kaNkulunkulu ophilayo na?

AmaFilisti ayemi entabeni ngalapha , u-Israyeli wayemi entabeni ngalapha ; kwakukhona isigodi phakathi kwabo.

UDavide wayesethi kumFilisti : Wena uza kimi nenkemba , nomkhonto, nengcula, kepha mina ngiza kuwe ngegama likaJehova Sebawoti , uNkulunkulu wempi ka-Israyeli oyeyisile.

Namuhla uJehova uyakukunikela esandleni sami ; ngiyakukubulala, ngisuse ikhanda lakho kuwe , nginike namuhla izinyoni zezulu nezilwane zomhlaba izidumbu zempi yamaF ilisti, ukuze umhlaba wonke wazi ukuthi kukhona uNkulunkulu kwa-Israyeli,

Abantu bakwa -Israyeli nabakwaJuda basuka bakhamuluka , bawaxosha amaFilisti kwaze kwaba seGayi nasemasangweni ase -Ekroni. Abalimeleyo bamaFilisti bawa ngasendleleni eya eShaharayimi, kwaze kwaba seGati nase- Ekroni.

Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli babuya ekuxosheni amaFilisti , baphanga ikamu lawo.

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

Kepha wonke u -Israyeli noJuda bamthanda uDavide , ngokuba wayephuma engena phambi kwabo. UDavide umkhwenyana wenkosi

UDavide wathi kuSawule : Mina ngingubani , kuyini ukuphila kwami , nomndeni kababa uyini kwa-Israyeli ukuba ngibe ngumkhwenyana wenkosi?

Kwathi ekufikeni kwabo , uDavide esebuya ekubulaleni umFilisti , abesifazane baphuma emizini yonke yakwa -Israyeli, behlabelela besina , ukuba bamhlangabeze uSawule inkosi ngezigubhu , nangokuthokoza, nangezinkenenezo.

Wayesephendula u -Eli ethi : Hamba ngokuthula ; uNkulunkulu wakwa - Israyeli makakunike okucelileyo kuye.

UJonathani wathi kuDavide : Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, nxa ngimphenya ubaba ngalesi sikhathi kusasa noma ngomhlomunye, bheka, uma kukuhle kuDavide, ngiyakuthumela kuwe, ngikwambulele kuwe.

Wayesethi uDavide : Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, inceku yakho izwile nokuzwa ukuthi uSawule u funa ukuza eKeyila ukuba achithe umuzi ngenxa yami.

Abantu baseKeyila bayakungikhaphela yini esandleni sakhe na ? USawule uyakwehla njengalokho inceku yakho izwile na ? Jehova Nkulunkulu ka - Israyeli, ake uyitshele inceku yakho. Wathi uJehova: Uyakwehla.

Wathi kuye : Ungesabi, ngokuba isandla sikaSawul e ubaba asiyikukufumana; wena uyakuba yinkosi phezu kuka -Israyeli, mina ngikwelame; noSawule ubaba uyakwazi lokho.

Inkosi yakwa -Israyeli iphumele ukulandela bani na ? Uxosha bani na ? Uxosha inja efileyo, intwakumba eyodwa nje.

USawule wayesethatha abantu abayizinkulungwane ezintathu abakhethiweyo kuye wonke u-Israyeli, wahamba ukumfuna uDavide nabantu bakhe emaDwaleni amaGogo.

Manje bheka , ngiyazi ukuthi uyakuba yinkosi impela , nombuso wakwa - Israyeli uyakuqiniswa esandleni sakho.

USamuweli wafa ; wahlangana wonke u -Israyeli, wamlilela, wammbela ngasendlini yakhe eRama. UDavide wasuka, wehlela ehlane lasePharanu.

Kuyakuthi la pho uJehova esekwenzile enkosini yami njengakho konke okuhle akukhulumileyo ngawe, akubeke ube ngumbusi kwa-Israyeli,

UDavide wayesethi ku -Abigayili: Makabusiswe uJehova uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli okuthume namuhla ukungihlangabeza.

Ngokuba impela, kuphila kukaJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ongivimbele ukuze ngingakulimazi , uma ungasheshanga ukuza ukuba ungihlangabeze , impela nga kungasalanga kuNabali ngasekuseni kusasa nokukodwa okungokwesilisa.

UDavide wathi ku -Abineri: Awusiye umuntu okungekho onjengawe kwa - Israyeli na ? Awulindanga ngani inkosi yakho , inkosi? Ngokuba kwafika omunye wabantu ukuyobulala inkosi yakho, inkosi.

USawule wasuka, wehlela ehlane laseZifi enabantu abakhethiweyo bakwa - Israyeli abayizinkulungwane ezintathu ukuba amfune uDavide ehlane.

Ngalokho igazi lami malingaweli emhlabathini ngikude noJehova, ngokuba inkosi yakwa -Israyeli iphumele ukufuna intwakumba eyodwa , njengalokhu kuzingelwa intendele ezintabeni.

UDavide wathi enhliziyweni yakhe : Ngiyakubhubha ngelinye ilanga ngesandla sikaSawu le; akukho okungcono kimi kunokuba ngibaleke , ngiye ezweni lamaFilisti ; uSawule uyakungiyeka , angabe esangifuna emikhawulweni yonke yakwa-Israyeli, ngiphunyuke esandleni sakhe.

U-Akhishi wakholwa nguDavide , wathi: Wenze ukuba anengwe nokunengwa ngabantu bakhe abakwa -Israyeli; ngalokho uyakuba yinceku yami kuze kube nini.

Kwathi ngalezo zinsuku amaFilisti abutha amabutho awo ukuba aphume impi no -Israyeli. U-Akhishi wathi kuDavide : Yazi nokwazi ukuthi uyakuphuma impi nami, wena nabantu bakho.

Futhi uJehova uyakunikela u -Israyeli kanye nawe esandleni samaFilisti ; kusasa wena namadodana akho niyakuba nami ; uJehova uyakunikela nempi yabakwa-Israyeli esandleni samaFilisti.

USamuweli wayesefile ; wonke u -Israyeli wamkhalela , wammbela eRama umuzi wakhe . USawule wayexoshile ezweni abanamadl ozi phakathi kwabo nabathakathi.

AmaFilisti abuthana afika , amisa eShunemi ; uSawule wabutha wonke u- Israyeli, wamisa eGilibowa.

AmaFilisti abutha zonke izimpi zawo e -Afeki; abakwa-Israyeli bamisa ngasemthonjeni oseJizreyeli.

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.

ihlabe ngayo emcengezini , noma esocweni , noma ebhodweni , noma ekhanzini; konke ekwenyusayo ingwegwe, umpristi wakuthatha. Benze njalo eShilo kubo bonke abakwa-Israyeli ababefika khona.

U-Eli wayesemdala kakhulu , wezwa konke amadodana akhe akwenzayo ku-Israyeli wonke, nokuthi ayelala nabesifazane ababekhonza ngasemnyango wetende lokuhlangana.

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.

Niwukhahlelelani umhlatshelo wami nomnikelo wami engiyale ngakho endlini yami , udumise amadodana akho phezu kwami , nizikhuluphalise ngeminikelo emihle kunayo yonke yakwa-Israyeli, abantu bami, na?

Ngalokho uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli uthi: Ngasho nokusho ukuthi indlu yakho nendlu kayihlo yohamba phambi kwami kuze kube phakade . Kepha manje uJehova uthi : M akube kude nami , ngokuba abangidumisayo ngiyakubadumisa; abangidelelayo bayakweyiswa.

Uyakubona ukuhlupheka kwendlu yami kukho konke okuhle ayakwenzelwa khona u-Israyeli; akuyikubakho xhegu endlini yakho kuze kube phakade.

Kwaba njalo kusukela kulolo suku kuya phambili ; wamisa isimiso nomthetho kwa-Israyeli kuze kube namuhla.

AmaFilisti alwa no-Israyeli; abantu bakwa -Israyeli babaleka phambi kwamaFilisti, bawa begwaziwe entabeni yaseGilibowa.

Lapho abantu bakwa -Israyeli ababe ngaphesheya kwesigodi nalabo ababe ngaphesheya kweJordani bebona ukuthi abantu bakwa -Israyeli babaleka nokuthi uSawule namadodana akhe bafile, bashiya imizi, babaleka; amaFilisti afika, ahlala kuyo.

UJehova wathi kuSamuweli : Bheka, ngiyakwenza into kwa -Israyeli eziyakunkeneneza ngayo izindlebe zombili zabo bonke abayizwayo.

Wonke u-Israyeli kusukela kwaDani kuze kube seBeri Sheba wazi ukuthi uSamuweli uqinisiwe ukuba abe ngumprofethi kaJehova.

Izwi likaSamuweli lafika kuye won ke u -Israyeli. U-Israyeli waphuma ukulwa namaFilisti, wamisa ngase-Ebeni Ezeri; amaFilisti amisa e-Afeki.

AmaFilisti alwa , u-Israyeli wachithwa , babaleka, kwaba yilowo nalowo etendeni lakhe; kwaba khona ukuceka okukhulu, ngokuba kwawa ku-Israyeli abantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amathathu aba yimigundatshani.

Owaletha umbiko waphendula wathi : U-Israyeli ubalekile phambi kwamaFilisti; kwakukhona ukubulawa okukhulu phakathi kwabantu ; amadodana akho omabili oHofini noFinehasi afile , nomphongolo kaNkulunkulu uthathiwe. Ukufa kuka-Eli. U-Ikabodi

AmaFilisti azihlela ukuhlangana no -Israyeli; impi yaqhubeka, u-Israyeli wahlulwa phambi kwamaFilisti abulala empini ngasendle kungathi abantu abayizinkulungwane ezine.

Wamqamba umntwana ngokuthi u -Ikabodi, ethi: Inkazimulo isukile kwa - Israyeli, ngokuba umphongolo kaNkulunkulu uthathiwe, nangenxa kayisezala wakhe nomyeni wakhe.

Wathi: Inkazimulo isukile kwa-Israyeli, ngokuba umphongolo kaNkulunkulu uthathiwe.

Kwathi abantu bengena ekamu , amalunga akwa -Israyeli athi : UJehova usibulaleleni phambi kwamaFilisti na ? Masithathe umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova eShilo , siwulethe kithi , ufike phakathi kwethu , usisindise esandleni sezitha zethu.

Kwathi umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJeh ova ufika ekamu , wonke u - Israyeli wakhamuluka ngokukhamuluka okukhulu, kwaze kwaduma umhlaba.

Base bethuma umphongolo kaNkulunkulu e -Ekroni. Kwathi ekufikeni komphongolo kaNkulunkulu e -Ekroni abase -Ekroni bakhala bathi : Balethile umphongolo kaNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli kithi ukuba usibulale thina nabantu bakithi.

Bathuma babutha onke amakhosi amaFilisti , bathi: Wususeni umphongolo kaNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, ubuyele endlini yawo , ukuba ungasibulali thina nabantu bakithi, ngokuba kwakukhona ukungquzuka okokufa emzini wonke; isandla sikaNkulunkulu sasinzima kakhulu khona.

Abantu base -Ashidodi sebebona ukuthi kunjalo bathi : Umphongolo kaNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli awuyikuhlala kithi , ngokuba isandla sakhe silukhuni phezu kwethu naphezu kukaDagoni unkulunkulu wethu.

Bathuma babuthela kubo on ke amakhosi amaFilisti , bathi: Siyakwenzani ngomphongolo kaNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli na ? Athi: Umphongolo kaNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli mawususelwe eGati . Bawususela umphongolo kaNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli khona.

Bathi: Uma nimukisa umphongolo kaNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ningawumukisi ze, kepha anobuyisela nokubuyisela kuye umnikelo wecala ; khona niyakuphiliswa, kwazeke kini ukuthi isandla sakhe asisuswa ngani kini.

USamuweli esanikela ngomnikelo wokushiswa, amaFilisti asondela ukulwa no-Israyeli; kepha uJehova waduma ngokuduma okukhulu phezu kwamaFilisti ngalolo suku, wawangquzula, abulawa phambi kuka-Israyeli.

Abantu bakwa-Israyeli baphuma eMispa, bawaxosha amaFilisti, bawabulala, baze bafika ngaphansi eBeti Kari.

Ayesahlulwa amaFilisti , awabe esaphinda ukungena emikhawulweni ka - Israyeli; isandla sikaJehova sasimelene namaFilisti zonke izinsuku zikaSamuweli.

Imizi amaFilisti ayeyithathile ku -Israyeli yabuyiselwa ku -Israyeli, kusukela e-Ekroni kuze kube seGati; umkhawulo wayo u-Israyeli wawophula esandleni samaFilisti. Kwaba khona ukuthula phakathi kuka-Israyeli nama-Amori. USamuweli ungumahluleli

USamuweli wathatha iwundlu elincelayo , wanikela ngalo libe ngumnikelo oshiswa wonke kuJehova ; uSamuweli wamkhalela u-Israyeli kuJehova ; uJehova wamphendula.

Kwathi uSamuweli esemdala , wabeka amadodana akhe abe ngabahluleli phezu kuka-Israyeli.

UJehova wathi kuSamuweli : Lalela izwi labo , ubanike inkosi. USamuweli wathi kubantu bakwa -Israyeli: Hambani niye , kube yilowo nalowo emzini wakini.

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

USawule waphendula wathi : Angisiye owakwaBenjamini yini , owesincane sezizwe zakwa-Israyeli, na? Nomndeni wakithi awumncane yini kuyo yonke imindeni yesizwe sakwaBenjamini na? Ukhulumelani kimi ngale ndlela na?

Endulo kwa -Israyeli, lapho umuntu ebeyakubuza kuNkulunkulu , washo wathi: Woza siye kumboni ; ngokuba lo othiwa umprofethi manje wabizwa kuqala ngokuthi umboni.

UJehu wathumela ku -Israyeli wonke ; zonke izinceku zikaBali zafika , akwaze kwasala muntu ongafikanga ; zangena endlini kaBali , indlu kaBali yagcwala yathi swi, kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekugcineni.

UHezekiya wakhuleka phambi kukaJehova , wathi: Jehova Nkulunkulu ka- Israyeli ohlezi phezu kwamakherubi , wena un guNkulunkulu, wena wedwa , wemibuso yonke yomhlaba, wena wenzile izulu nomhlaba.

U-Isaya indodana ka -Amose wathumela kuHezekiya , wathi: Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Lokho okukhuleke kimi ngoSaneheribi inkosi yase-Asiriya ngikuzwile.

Weyise bani, wathuka bani, na? Uphakamisele bani izwi lakho , wabhekisa phezulu amehlo akho, na? NgoNgcwele ka-Israyeli!

UMowabi wahlubuka kwa-Israyeli emva kokufa kuka-Ahabi.

Wayesethi kuyo : Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Lokhu uthume izithunywa ukubuza kuBali Zebubi unkulunkulu wase -Ekroni kungokuba kungekho Nkulunkulu kwa -Israyeli ukuba kubuzwe ngezwi lakhe na ? Ngalokho awuyikwehlika embhedeni okhuphukele kuwo, kepha uyakufa nokufa.

Ezinye izindaba zika -Ahaziya azenzayo angithi zilotshiwe encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yamakhosi akwa-Israyeli na?

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?

Ngalokho umbhede okhuphukele kuwo awuyikwehlika kuwo, kepha uyakufa nokufa.

ngalokho usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Bheka, ngiletha okubi phezu kweJerusalema naphezu kukaJuda ngangokuthi bonke abakuzwayo, izindlebe zabo zombili ziyakunkeneza ngakho.

Wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova njengezinengiso zabezizwe uJehova abaxosha phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Wabuye wakha izindawo eziphakemeyo uHezekiya uyise azichithile ; wamisela uBali ama-altare, wenza u-Ashera njengokwenza kuka-Ahabi inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, wakhuleka kulo lonke ibandla lasezulwini, walikhonza.

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;

futhi angisayikuzulisa izinyawo zika-Israyeli, zisuke ezweni engalinika oyise, uma beyakugcina kuphela ukwenza njengakho konke engibayale ngakho nanjengawo wonke umthetho eyabayala ngawo inceku yami uMose.

Kepha abalalelanga ; uManase wabaphambukisa baze benza okubi kunabezizwe abachithayo uJehova phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Wathi kubo : Usho kanje uJ ehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Tshelani umuntu onithume kimi ukuthi:

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

Izindawo eziphakem eyo ezaziphambi kweJerusalema , ngakwesokunene kweNtaba Yokonakala , uSolomoni inkosi yakwa -Israyeli ayezakhele u - Ashitaroti isinengiso samaSidoni , noKemoshi isinengiso sakwaMowabi , noMilkomu isinengiso sabantwana bakwa-Amoni, inkosi yazingcolisa.

I-altare elaliseBethele , nendawo ephakemeyo eyenziwe nguJerobowamu indodana kaNebati owonisa u -Israyeli, nalelo altare kanye nendawo ephakemeyo yakudiliza , yayishisa ind awo eph akemeyo, yayicolisisa yaba yincushuncushu, yashisa no-Ashera.

Nazo zonke izindlu zezindawo eziphakemeyo ezazisemizini yaseSamariya , ezenziwa ngamakhosi akwa-Israyeli acunula ngazo, uJosiya wazisusa, wenza kuzona njengazo zonke izenzo azenzileyo eBethele.

Ngokuba iphasika elinjalo lalingagcinwanga kusukela emihleni yabahluleli abahlulela u -Israyeli, nasemihleni yonke yamakhosi akwa -Israyeli, nakweyakwaJuda.

UJehova wathi : Naye uJuda ngiyakumsusa ebusweni bami , njengalokho ngisuse u -Israyeli, ngiwulahle lo muzi engawukhethayo , nendlu eng asho ngayo ukuthi igama lami liyakuba khona lapho.

Yakhipha khona yonke ingcebo yendlu kaJehova nengcebo yendlu yenkosi , yahlahlela zonke izinto zeg olide uSolomoni inkosi yakwa -Israyeli azenzileyo ethempelini likaJehova njengokukhuluma kukaJehova.

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

UJehoramu indodana ka -Ahabi waba yinkosi kwa -Israyeli eSamariya ngomnyaka weshumi nesishiyagalombili kaJehoshafati i nkosi yakwaJuda , wabusa iminyaka eyishumi nambili.

Yayisithi inkosi yakwa -Israyeli: Maye, ngokuba uJehova ubuthile lawa makhosi amathathu ukuwanikela esandleni sakwaMowabi!

Kepha uJehoshafati wathi : Akakho lapha umprofethi k aJehova ukuba sibuze kuJehova ngaye na ? Enye yezinceku zenkosi yakwa -Israyeli yaphendula yathi : Ukhona u -Elisha indodana kaShafati owathela amanzi ezandleni zika-Eliya.

Wayesethi uJehoshafati: Izwi likaJehova likuye . Base behlela kuye inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, noJehoshafati, nenkosi yakwa-Edomi.

Kepha u -Elisha wathi enkosini yakwa -Israyeli: Nginamsebenzi muni nawe na? Hamba uye kubaprofethi bakayihlo nakubaprofethi bakanyoko . Kepha inkosi yakwa -Israyeli yathi kuye : Hhayi, ngokuba uJehova ubizile lawo makhosi amathathu ukuwanikela esandleni sakwaMowabi.

Sebefike ekamu lika -Israyeli, abakwa-Israyeli basuka bashaya abakwaMowabi, baze babaleka ebusweni babo ; bangena ezweni labo bechitha abakwaMowabi.

Yayisithatha izibulo layo ebeliyakubusa esikhundleni sayo , yanikela ngalo libe ngumnikelo wokushiswa phezu kogange . Abakwa-Israyeli behlelwa yintukuthelo enkulu, basuka kuyo, babuyela ezweni lakubo.

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

UMesha inkosi yakwaMowabi owayefuyile kakhulu izimvu wathela enkosini yakwa-Israyeli uboya bamawundlu ayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu nobezinqama eziyizinkulungwane eziyikhulu.

Kwathi lapho esefile u -Ahabi, inkosi yakwaMowabi yahlubuka inkosi yakwa-Israyeli.

Inkosi uJehoramu yaphuma eSamariya ngaleso sikhathi , yabala wonke u - Israyeli.

Yayisihamba inkosi yakwa -Israyeli, nenkosi yakwaJuda , nenkosi yakwa - Edomi; azungeza indlela yezinsuku eziyisikhombisa ; kwakungekho manzi empi nawezinkomo ezibalandelayo.

O-Abana noFariphari , imifula yaseDamaseku , abangcono kun awo onke amanzi akwa -Israyeli na ? Ngingegeze kuyo yini , ngihlambuluke, na? Wayesephenduka, wahamba ethukuthele.

Wayesebuyela kulowo muntu kaNkulunkulu , yena nabantu bakhe bonke , weza, wema phambi kwakhe , wathi: Bheka, sengiyazi ukuthi akakho uNkulunkulu emhlabeni wonke, kwa-Israyeli kuphela; ngakho ake wamukele isipho encekwini yakho.

Ama-Aramu ayephumile ngamaviyo , abuya ezweni lakwa -Israyeli enentombazana encane; yayiyincekukazi yomkaNahamani.

Yangena, yatshela inkosi yayo, yathi: Intombazana yasezweni lakwa-Israyeli yasho ukuthi nokuthi.

Inkosi yase -Aramu yayisithi : Yiya khona ; ngizakuthuma incwadi enkosini yakwa-Israyeli. Wasuka, wahamba namatalenta ayishumi esiliva nezinhlamvu eziyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha zegolide , nezingubo eziyishumi zokuphendulela.

Waletha incwadi enkosini yakwa-Israyeli, ethi: Manje, lapho le ncwadi ifika kuwe, bheka, ngithumile u Nahamani inceku yami kuwe ukuba umphilise ochokweni lwakhe.

Kwathi inkosi yakwa -Israyeli isiyifundile incwadi , yaklebhula izingubo zayo, yathi: Mina nginguNkulunkulu yini ukuba ngibulale , ngiphilise, ukuze lo athumele kimi umuntu ukumphilisa ochokweni lw akhe, na? Ake niqonde, nibone ukufuna kwakhe ithuba lokulwa nami.

Kwathi u-Elisha umuntu kaNkulunkulu esezwile ukuthi inkosi yakwa-Israyeli iklebhulile izingubo zayo, wathumela enkosini, wathi: Uklebhuleleni izingubo zakho na? Makeze kimi, aze azi ukuthi kukhona umprofethi kwa-Israyeli.

Inkosi yakwa -Israyeli yayisithuma umuntu kaNkulunkulu kuleyo ndawo ayishoyo, wayixwayisa ngayo, yaqaphela kungekanye, kungekabili kuphela.

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

Enye yezinceku zayo yathi : Hhayi, nkosi yami , nkosi, kodwa u -Elisha, umprofethi wakwa -Israyeli, uyayitshela inkosi yakwa -Israyeli amazwi owakhulumayo ekamelweni lakho lokulala.

Inkosi yakwa-Israyeli yathi ku -Elisha, isibabonile: Baba, ngibabulale na ? Ngibabulale na?

Yayisibalungisela idili, badla, baphuza; yabavumela ukuba bahambe , baya enkosini yabo . Amaviyo ama -Aramu awabe esaphinda ukungena ezweni lakwa-Israyeli. Indlala yaseSamariya

Kwathi inkosi yakwa -Israyeli idlula phezu kogange , kwamemeza kuyo owesifazane, wathi: Siza, nkosi yami, nkosi.

Inkosi yase-Aramu yayisilokhu ilwa no -Israyeli; yelulekana nezinceku zayo ngokuthi: Ukumisa kwami kuyakuba sekuthinithini.

Umuntu lowo kaNkulunkulu wathumela enkosini yakwa -Israyeli, wathi: Qaphela ukuba ungadluli kuleyo ndawo , ngokuba ama-Aramu aseyaphumula khona.

Enye yezinceku zayo yaphendula yathi: Makuthathwe amahhashi ayisihlanu aseleyo, asele lapha bheka, anjengesixuku sonke sakwa-Israyeli esisele lapha, anjengesixuku sonke sakwa-Israyeli esesiphelile sithumele, sibone.

INkosi ibiyizwisile impi yama -Aramu umsindo wezinqola , nomsindo wamahhashi, nomsindo wempi enkulu aze akhuluma omunye komunye ngokuthi: Bheka, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli isiqashele amakhosi amaHeti namakhosi aseGibithe ukuba asifikele.

UHazayeli wathi: Inkosi yami ikhalelani na? Yathi: Ngokuba ngiyazi okubi oyakukwenza kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli; uyakuthungela izinqaba zabo ngomlilo, ubulale izinsizwa zabo ngenkemba, uphahlaze izingane zabo, uqaqe abesifazane babo abakhulelweyo.

Ngomnyaka wesihlanu kaJoramu indodana ka-Ahabi inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, uJehoshafati eyinkosi kwaJuda , uJehoramu, indodana kaJehoshafati, inkosi yakwaJuda, waba yinkosi.

Wahamba ngendlela yamakhosi akwa -Israyeli njengokwenza kwendlu ka - Ahabi, ngokuba indodakazi ka -Ahabi yayingumkakhe ; wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova.

Ngomnyaka weshumi nambili kaJoramu indodana ka -Ahabi inkosi yakwa- Israyeli u-Ahaziya indodana kaJehoramu inkosi yakwaJuda waba yinkosi.

U-Ahaziya waba yinkosi eneminyaka engamashumi amabili nambili , wabusa umnyaka eJerusalema ; igama likanina lalingu -Athaliya, indodakazi ka-Omri inkosi yakwa-Israyeli.

Kepha zathi : Amanga; ake usitshele . Wayesethi: Wakhuluma kimi ukuthi nokuthi, ethi: U sho kanje uJehova , uthi: Sengikugcobile ube yinkosi kwa- Israyeli.

UJehu, indodana kaJehoshafati, kaNimishi, wamenzela ugobe uJoramu -- uJoramu wayelinda eRamoti Gileyadi , yena naye wonke u -Israyeli ngenxa kaHazayeli, inkosi yase-Aramu;

Wayesethi uJoramu: Bophela. Babophela-ke inqola yakhe. UJoramu inkosi yakwa-Israyeli no -Ahaziya inkosi yakwaJuda baphuma , kwaba yilowo nalowo ngenqola yakhe , baphuma ukum hlangabeza uJehu , bamfumana esiqeshini sezwe likaNaboti waseJizreyeli.

Bese wuthatha umfuma wamafutha , uwathele ekhanda lakhe , uthi: U sho kanje uJehova , uthi: Ngikugcobile ube yinkosi kwa -Israyeli. Bese wuvula umnyango, ubaleke, ungalibali.

Yasukuma, yangena endlini; yathela amafutha ekhanda lakhe , yathi kuye: Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Ngikugcobile ube yinkosi yabantu bakaJehova kwa-Israyeli.

URehobowamu waya eShekemi , ngokuba wonke u -Israyeli wayefikile eShekemi ukumbeka inkosi.

Wonke u-Israyeli esebonile ukuthi inkosi ayibalalelanga , abantu babuyisela izwi enkosini , bathi: Sinasabelo sini kuDavide na ? Ifa asinalo endodaneni kaJese. Yilowo nalowo makaye etendeni lakhe , Israyeli; zibhekele indlu yakho manje, Davide. Wayesesuka u-Israyeli wonke, waya ematendeni akhe.

Kepha abantwana bakwa -Israyeli abakhe emizini yakwaJuda , uRehobowamu wabusa phezu kwabo.

Inkosi uRehobowamu yathuma u -Adoramu owayephezu kwezisebenzi ; abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bamkhanda ngamatshe, wafa. Inkosi uRehobowamu yashesha ukukhwela inqola yayo ukuba ibalekele eJerusalema.

U-Israyeli wayeseyihlubuka-ke indlu kaDavide kuze kube namuhla.

Bathuma bambiza ; uJerobowamu naye wonke u -Israyeli beza , bakhuluma kuRehobowamu, bathi:

URehobowamu esefikile eJerusalema wabutha indlu yakwaJuda noBenjamini, abantu abakhethiweyo abayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi ayisihiyagalombili , amabutho, ukuba balwe no -Israyeli, bawubuyisele umbuso kuRehobowamu.

Abapristi namaLevi ayekwa -Israyeli wonke bazihlanganisa naye bephuma emikhawulweni yonke.

Emva kwabo kwaphuma ezizweni zonke zakwa -Israyeli abanhliziyo zabo zibhekiswe ukufuna uJehova uNkulun kulu wakwa -Israyeli, bafika eJerusalema ukuhlabela uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise.

Khuluma kuRehobowamu indodana kaSolomoni, inkosi yakwaJuda, nakuye wonke u-Israyeli kwaJuda noBenjamini, ngokuthi:

Kwathi lapho umbuso kaRehobowa mu usuqinisiwe , yena esenamandla , washiya umthetho kaJehova no-Israyeli wonke kanye naye.

Inkosi uRehobowamu yayisiziqinisa -ke eJerusalema yabusa , ngokuba uRehobowamu wayeneminyaka engamashumi amane nanye ekuqaleni kwakhe ukubusa ; wabusa iminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa eJerusalema , umuzi uJehova awukhethileyo ezizweni zonke zakwa -Israyeli ukuba abeke khona igama lakhe; igama likanina lalinguNahama umAmonikazi.

Zase zizithoba izikhulu zakwa-Israyeli nenkosi, bathi: UJehova ulungile.

Futhi bhekani , uNkulunkulu unathi , uyinhloko yethu , kanye nabapristi abaphethe amacilongo okuhlaba umkhosi ukuba bawakhalise ngani ; bantwana bakwa -Israyeli, ningalwi noJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo , ngokuba aniyikuphumelela.

Base bekhamuluka abantu bakwaJuda , nalapho abantwana bakwaJuda bekhamuluka, uNkulunkulu washaya oJerobowamu no -Israyeli wonke phambi kuka-Abiya noJuda.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli babaleka ebusweni bukaJuda , uNkulunkulu wabanikela esandleni sabo.

U-Abiya nabantu bakhe babaceka ngokuceka okukhulu ; kwawa amadoda akhethiweyo akwa-Israyeli abuleweyo ayizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisihlanu.

Bathotshiswa-ke ngaleso sikhathi abantwana bakwa -Israyeli; kepha abantwana bakwaJuda bahlula , ngokuba babencika kuJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise.

U-Abiya wema entabeni yaseS emarayimi esezintabeni zakwa -Efrayimi, wathi: Ngizweni wena Jerobowamu no-Israyeli wonke:

Bekunganifanele ukwazi yini ukuthi uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli wanika uDavide umbuso kwa -Israyeli kuze kube phakade , yena namadodana akhe, ngesivumelwano sikasawoti, na?

nesokuba bonke ababengamfuni uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli babulawe, noma bebancane noma bebakhulu, owesilisa noma owesifazane.

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

Kwakuyizinsuku eziningi u-Israyeli engenaye uNkulunkulu oqinisileyo , namfundisi ofundisayo, namthetho;

kepha ekuhluphekeni kwabo baphendukela kuJehova uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli, bamfuna; wafunyanwa yibo.

Wabutha wonke uJuda noBenjamini nabagogobele kubo bevela kwa - Efrayimi, nakwaManase, nakwaSimeyoni, ngokuba abaningi bahlubukela kuye bevela kwa-Israyeli, lapho bebona ukuthi uJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe unaye.

Ngomnyaka wamashumi amathathu nesithupha wokubusa kuka -Asa, uBahasha, inkosi yakwa -Israyeli, wakhuphuka ukuhlasela uJuda , wakha iRama, ukuze angavumeli muntu ukuphuma nokungena ku -Asa inkosi yakwaJuda.

Bheka, izindaba zika -Asa, ezokuqala nezokugcina , bheka-ke, zilotshiwe encwadini yamakhosi akwaJuda nakwa-Israyeli.

Kukhona isivumelwano phakathi kwami nawe , njengalokho sasikhona phakathi kukababa noyihlo ; bheka, ngithuma kuwe isiliva negolide ; hamba waphule isivumelwano sakh o noBahasha inkosi yakwa -Israyeli ukuba asuke kimi.

UBeni Hadadi wayilalela inkosi u -Asa, wathuma izinduna zempi yakhe ukuba zihlasele imizi yakwa -Israyeli; zanqoba i -Ijoni, neDani, ne-Abela Mayimi, nayo yonke imizi yokubekelela yakwaNafetali.

UJehoshafati indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe , waziqinisa ukulwa no-Israyeli.

kepha wafuna uNkulunkulu kayise , wahamba ngemiyalo yakhe , kungengakwenza kuka-Israyeli.

Wayesethi: Ngabona wonke u -Israyeli ehlakazekile ezintabeni njengezimvu ezingenamalusi; uJehova wathi : Laba abasenankosi ; mababuyele, kube yilowo nalowo endlini yakhe ngokuthula.

Yayisithi inkosi yakwa-Israyeli kuJehoshafati: Angishongo yini kuwe ukuthi akayikuprofetha okuhle ngami, okubi kuphela, na?

UJehova wathi: Ngubani oyakuyenga u -Ahabi inkosi yakwa -Israyeli ukuba akhuphuke, afele eRamoti Gileyadi na ? Omunye washo ukuthi nomunye ukuthi.

Inkosi y akwa-Israyeli yathi : Mthatheni uMikhaya , nimbuyisele ku -Amoni umbusi womuzi nakuJowashi indodana yenkosi,

Inkosi yakwa -Israyeli noJehoshafati inkosi yakwaJuda base bekhuphukela eRamoti Gileyadi.

Inkosi yakwa -Israyeli yathi kuJehoshafati : Ngiyakuziguqula, ngingene ekulweni, kepha wena wembathe izambatho zakho . Yayisiziguqula inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, bangena ekulweni.

U-Ahabi inkosi yakwa -Israyeli wathi kuJehoshafati inkosi yakwaJuda : Uyakuhamba nami , siye eRamoti Gileyadi , na? Wathi kuye: Mina nginjengawe, abantu bami banjengabantu bakho; siyakuba nawe empini.

Kepha inkosi yase -Aramu ibiyalile izinduna zezinqola zayo ngokuthi : Ningalwi namuntu, omncane noma omkhulu, kuphela nenkosi yakwa-Israyeli yodwa.

Kwathi lapho izinduna zezinqola sezibonile uJehoshafati , zathi: Yena uyinkosi yakwa -Israyeli; zase ziphenduka ukuba zilwe nayo , kepha uJehoshafati wamemeza, uJehova wamsiza; uNkulunkulu wazimukisa kuye.

Kwathi sezibonile izinduna zezinq ola ukuthi yena akasiyo inkosi yakwa - Israyeli, zabuya ekumlandeleni.

Kepha umuntu othile wansala umnsalo wakhe ngokungazeleli nje , wayihlaba inkosi yakwa -Israyeli enhlanganisweni yebhantshi lensimbi ; yathi kumshayeli: Phenduka, ungikhiphe empini, ngokuba ngikhutshaziwe.

Ukulwa kwaqina ngalolo suku ; inkosi yakwa -Israyeli yasekelwa enqoleni yayo malungana nama -Aramu kwaze kwaba kusihlwa , yafa ngesikhathi sokushona kwelanga.

UJehoshafati wath i enkosini yakwa -Israyeli: Ake ubuze namuhla izwi likaJehova.

Inkosi yakwa -Israyeli yayisibutha abaprofethi , amadoda angamakhulu amane, yathi kubo : Sihambe siye yini eRamoti Gileyadi ukulwa, noma ngiliyeke na ? Bathi: Khuphukani, ngokuba uNkulunkulu uyakul inikela esandleni senkosi.

Inkosi yakwa -Israyeli yathi kuJehoshafati : Kusekhona umuntu munye esingabuza ngaye kuJehova , kodwa ngiyamzonda , ngokuba akazange aprofethe okuhle ngami, kepha okubi njalo; nguMikhaya indodana kaJimila. Wathi uJehoshafati: Inkosi mayingasho njalo.

Inkosi yakwa-Israyeli yayisibiza induna , yathi: Landa masinyane uMikhaya indodana kaJimila.

Inkosi yakwa -Israyeli noJehoshafati inkosi yakwaJuda babehle zi, kwaba yilowo nalowo esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi , bembethe izambatho zabo , behlezi esibuyeni ngasesikhaleni sesango laseSamariya ; bonke abaprofethi baprofetha phambi kwabo.

Futhi uJehoshafati wamisa eJerusalema kumaLevi nakubapristi nasezinhlokweni zawoyise bakwa -Israyeli abokwahlulela kuka Jehova nabombango. Sebebuyela eJerusalema,

USolomoni wayesesuka endaweni ephakemeyo yaseGibeyoni etendeni lokuhlangana, waya eJerusalema; wabusa phezu kuka-Israyeli.

USolomoni wakhuluma kuye wonke u -Israyeli, nakuzo izinduna zezinkulungwane nezamakhulu, nakubahluleli, nakuzo zonke izikhulu kwa - Israyeli wonke, izinhloko zawoyise.

Bheka, manje abantwana bakwa -Amoni nabakwaMowabi nabasentabeni yaseSeyiri, ongavumelanga u -Israyeli ukubangenela ekuphumeni kwakhe ezweni laseGibithe, kepha wabachezukela, akabachithanga,

AmaLevi abantwana bamaKohati nawabantwana bamaKorahi asukuma ukumdumisa uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ngezwi elikhulu kakhulu.

Ingebhe ngoNkulunkulu yaba phezu kwayo yonke imibuso yamazwe , lapho isizwile ukuthi uJehova wayelwile nezitha zakwa-Israyeli.

Ezinye izindaba zikaJehoshafati, ezokuqala nezokugcina, bheka, zilotshiwe ezindabeni zikaJehu indodana kaHanani ezifakwe encwadini yamakhosi akwa-Israyeli.

Emva kwalokho uJehoshafati , inkosi yakwaJuda, wazihlanganisa no - Ahaziya inkosi yakwa-Israyeli; yena wayekwenza okubi impela;

Awuxoshanga yini , Nkulunkulu wethu , abakhileyo kuleli zwe phambi kwabantu bakho u-Israyeli, wanika lona inzalo ka-Abrahama umngane wakho kuze kube phakade, na?

kepha uhambe ngendlela yamakhosi akwa -Israyeli, wenza uJuda nabakhileyo eJerusalema ukuba baphinge njengokwenza kwendlu ka -Ahabi, futhi wabulala abafowenu bendlu kayihlo abahle kunawe,

Wayenabafowabo, amadodana kaJehoshafati : ngo-Azariya, noJehiyeli, noZakariya, no-Azariyahu, noMikayeli, noShefathiya; bonke labo babengamadodana kaJehoshafati inkosi yakwa-Israyeli.

UJehoramu esemile embusweni kayise , eseziqinisile, wabulala bonke abafowabo ngenkemba kanye nabathile bezikhulu zakwa-Israyeli.

Wahamba ngendlela yamakhosi akwa -Israyeli njengokwenza kw endlu ka - Ahabi, ngokuba indodakazi ka -Ahabi yayingumkakhe ; wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova.

Futhi wahamba ngeziluleko zabo , lapho ehamba noJehoramu, indodana ka- Ahabi, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, ukulwa noHazayeli inkosi yase -Aramu eRamoti Gileyadi; ama-Aramu amlimaza uJoramu.

Zazungeza kwaJuda , zabutha amaLevi emizini yonke yakwaJuda , nezinhloko zawoyise bakwa-Israyeli, bafika eJerusalema.

Bammbela emzini kaDavide phakathi kwamakhosi , ngokuba wayenze okuhle kwa-Israyeli, nakuNkulunkulu, nasendlini yakhe.

Wabutha abapristi namaLevi, wathi kubo: Phumani niye emizini yakwaJuda, niqoqe ku -Israyeli wonke imali yokulungisa indlu kaNkulunkulu wenu iminyaka ngeminyaka, niyisheshise le ndaba. Kepha amaLevi awasheshanga.

Inkosi yayisibiza uJehoyada inhloko , yathi kuye : Awubizanga ngani kumaLevi ukuba alethe kwaJuda naseJerusalema int ela kaMose inceku kaJehova neyebandla lika-Israyeli, ibe ngeyetende lobufakazi na?

Kwase kumenyezelwa kwaJuda naseJerusalema ukuba balethe kuJehova intela uMose inceku kaNkulunkulu ayibeke phezu kuka-Israyeli ehlane.

U-Amasiya, inkosi yakwaJuda , eselulekiwe wathumela kuJowashi indodana kaJehowahazi kaJehu , inkosi yakwa -Israyeli, wathi: Woza sibhekane ubuso nobuso.

UJowashi, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, wathumela ku-Amasiya inkosi yakwaJuda, wathi: Isihlahla somkhaya saseLebanoni sathumela kumsedari waseLebanoni, sathi: Nika indodana yami indodakazi yakho ibe ngu mkayo. Kwadlula isilo sasendle saseLebanoni, sanyathela phansi isihlahla somkhaya.

Wayesekhuphuka uJowashi inkosi yakwa -Israyeli; yena no-Amasiya inkosi yakwaJuda babhekana ubuso nobuso eBeti Shemeshi elingelakwaJuda.

UJuda wahlulwa phambi kuka -Israyeli; babaleka, kwaba yilowo nalowo etendeni lakhe.

UJowashi inkosi yakwa -Israyeli wambamba u -Amasiya inkosi yakwaJuda indodana kaJo washi kaJehowahazi eBeti Shemeshi , wamyisa eJerusalema, wadiliza ugange lwaseJerusalema kusukela eSangweni lakwa -Efrayimi kuze kube seSangweni Lasegumbini, izingalo ezingamakhulu amane.

U-Amasiya indodana kaJowashi , inkosi yakwaJuda , wayesekhona emva kokufa kukaJowashi indodana kaJehowahazi , inkosi yakwa -Israyeli, iminyaka eyishumi nanhlanu.

Ezinye izindaba zika-Amasiya, ezokuqala nezokugcina , bheka, angithi zilotshiwe encwadini yamakhosi akwaJuda nakwa-Israyeli na?

Waqasha kwa -Israyeli amaqhawe anamandla ayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu ngamatalenta ayikhulu esiliva.

Kepha kwafika kuye umuntu kaNkulunkulu , wathi: Nkosi, impi yakwa - Israyeli mayingahambi nawe , ngokuba uJehova akasenaye u -Israyeli nabo bonke abantwana bakwa-Efrayimi,

U-Amasiya wayesethi kulowo muntu kaNkulunkulu: Kepha siyakwenze njani ngamatalenta ayikhulu engiwanike impi yakwa -Israyeli na ? Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathi: UJehova unamandla okukunika okuningi kunalokho.

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

bathi kubo : Ningabangenisi abathunjwa lapha , ngokuba nicabanga okuyakuba yicala lethu kuJehova ukuba kwenezele ezonweni zethu nasecaleni lethu, ngokuba icala lethu selilikhulu namanje ; ulaka olushisayo luphezu kuka-Israyeli.

Ngokuba uJehova wathobisa uJuda ngenxa ka -Ahazi inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, ngokuba wayedlubulundile kwaJuda , waphambuka nokuphambuka kuJehova.

kepha wahamba ngezindlela zamakh osi akwa-Israyeli, wenzela oBali izithombe ezibunjiweyo.

Wahlabela onkulunkulu baseDamaseku ababemshayile , wathi: Ngokuba onkulunkulu bamakhosi ase -Aramu bawasiza , ngiyakubahlabela ukuba bangisize nami. Kepha baba yisikhubekiso kuye nakuye wonke u-Israyeli.

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

U-Ahazi wayeselala koyise ; bammbela emzini , iJerusalema, ngokuba abamyisanga emathuneni amakhosi akwa-Israyeli; uHezekiya indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.

Washisa impepho esigodini sendodana kaHinomu , washisa abantwana bakhe emlilweni njengezinengiso zabezizwe uJehova abaxosha phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

UJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe wayesemnikela esandleni senkosi yase - Aramu, bamshaya, bathumba kuye isixuku esikhulu sabathunjwa , babayisa eDamaseku. Naye wanikelwa esandleni senkosi yakwa -Israyeli eyamshaya ngokushaya okukhulu.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bathumba kubafowabo izinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amabili , abesifazane, namadodana, namadodakazi, besusa kubo nempango eningi, beyiyisa impango eSamariya.

Manje sekusenhliziyweni yami ukwenza isivumelwano noJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ukuba ulaka lwakhe oluvuthayo lubuye kithina.

abapristi bazihlaba , benza umnikelo wesono ngegazi lazo e -altare ukuba benzele u -Israyeli won ke ukubuyisana , ngokuba inkosi yayaleza ukuba umnikelo wokushiswa nomnikelo wesono ube ngoka-Israyeli wonke.

UHezekiya wayala ukunikela ngomnikelo wokushiswa e-altare. Ngesikhathi sokuqala kom nikelo wokushiswa kwaqala nesihlabelelo sikaJehova , namacilongo, kanye nezinto zokubethwa zikaDavide inkosi yakwa-Israyeli.

Bavala nezivalo zompheme , bacima izibani , abashisanga impepho , abanikelanga ngeminikelo yokushiswa endaweni engcwele kuNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli.

UHiramu wathi futhi : Makabongwe uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli owenza izulu nomhlaba, nowanika uDavide inkosi indodana ehlakaniphileyo, enolwazi nengqondo, eyakwakhela uJehova indlu nendlu yombuso wakhe.

USolomoni wabala bonke abezizwe ababesezweni lakwa -Israyeli ngokubalwa uDavide uyi se ayebabalile ngakho ; kwafumaniseka ukuthi babe yizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi ayisihlanu nezinkulungwane ezintathu namakhulu ayisithupha.

Bheka, ngiyakhela igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu wami indlu ukuba ngimngcwelisele yona , ngishise ph ambi kwakhe impepho ethaphukayo , kubekwe njalo izinkwa zokubukwa , kunikelwe ngeminikelo yokushiswa ekuseni nakusihlwa ngamasabatha , nangokwethwasa kwenyanga , nangemikhosi emisiweyo kaJehova uNkulunkulu wethu . Lokhu kungumthetho kwa-Israyeli kuze kube phakade.

UHezekiya wathumela kuye wonke u -Israyeli noJuda, walobela o-Efrayimi noManase izincwadi ukuba beze endlini kaJehova eJerusalema , bamenzele uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli iphasika.

Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ababe khona eJerusalema bawugubha umkhosi wesinkwa esingenamvubelo izinsuku eziyisikhombisa ngokuthokoza okukhulu; amaLevi nabapristi bamdumisa uJehova imihla ngemihla ngezinto zokubethwa ezizwakalayo kuJehova.

Lonke ibandla lakwaJuda kanye nabapristi namaLevi , nalo lonke ib andla elaphuma ku -Israyeli, nabafokazi abaphuma ezweni lakwa -Israyeli behlezi kwaJuda, bathokoza.

Kwakukhona-ke ukuthokoza okukhulu eJerusalema , ngokuba kusukela esikhathini sikaSolomoni indodana kaDavide, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, akuzange kube khona okunjalo eJerusalema.

Benza isinqumo sokuhambisa izwi ku -Israyeli wonke kusukela eBeri Sheba kuze kube kwaDani ukuba bafike , bamenzele uJehova uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli iphasika eJerusalema , ngokuba babengalenzanga ebandleni njengokulotshiweyo.

Zase zihamba izigijimi nezincwadi eziphuma esandleni senkosi nasezikhulwini zayo, zaya kuye wonke u -Israyeli noJuda ngesiyalezo senkosi sokuthi: Nina bantwana bakwa -Israyeli, buyelani kuJehova uNkulunkulu ka - Abrahama noka -Isaka noka -Israyeli ukuba abuyele kuyo insali yenu yabasindileyo esandleni samakhosi ase-Asiriya.

Sekuphelile konke lokho , u-Israyeli wonke owayekhona wap huma waya emizini yakwaJuda, waphula izinsika, wagawula o-Ashera, wadiliza izindawo eziphakemeyo nama -altare kwaJuda wonke , nakwaBenjamini, nakwa- Efrayimi, nakwaManase, waze waqeda konke . Base bebuyel a bonke abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, kwaba yilowo nalowo ef eni lakhe , emizini yakubo.

Lanele ukusakazeka nje leli zwi , abantwana bakwa -Israyeli banikela kakhulu ngolibo lwamabele , nolwewayini, nolwamafutha, nolwezinyosi, nakuzo zonke izithelo zamasimu, baletha kakhulu okweshumi kwakho konke.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli nabakwaJuda ababehlala emizini yakwaJuda baletha nabo okweshumi kwezinkabi nezimv u nokweshumi kwezinto ezingcwele ezazingcweliselwe uJehova uNkulunkulu wabo , bakubeka izinqwaba ngezinqwaba.

Lapho uHezekiya nezikhulu beza ukuzibona izinqwaba, bambonga uJehova nabantu bakhe u-Israyeli.

Wayelobe nencwadi yokumhlambalaza uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, wakhuluma okuphambene naye, wathi: Njengalokho onkulunkulu babezizwe bengabophulanga abantu babo esandleni sami , kanjalo uNkulunkulu kaHezekiya akayikubophula abantu bakhe esandleni sami.

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

Wakha i -altare likaJehova , wanikela phezu kwalo ngemihlatshelo yeminikelo yokuthula neyokubonga , washo kuJuda ukuba bamkhonze uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.

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

Wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova njengezinengiso zabezizwe uJehova abaxosha phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Wabeka umfanekiso obaziweyo wesithombe awenzileyo endlini kaNkulunkulu asho ngayo uNkulunkulu kuDavide nakuSolomoni indodana yakhe ukuthi : Kule ndlu naseJerusalema engilikhethile ezizweni zonke zakwa-Israyeli ngiyakubeka igama lami kuze kube phakade;

futhi angisayikususa unyawo luka -Israyeli ezweni engilimisele oyihlo , uma beyakugcina kuphela ukwenza konke engibayale ngakho , wonke umthetho, nezimiso, nezahlulelo, ngesandla sikaMose.

UManase wadukisa uJuda nabakhileyo eJerusalema , baze benza okubi kunabezizwe uJehova abachitha phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Hambani ningibuzele kuJehova, mina nabaseleyo kwa-Israyeli nakwaJuda ngamazwi encwadi efunyenweyo , ngokuba inkulu intukuthelo kaJehova ethululelwe phezu kwethu , ngokuba obaba abaligcinanga izwi likaJehova ukwenza njengakho konke okulotshiweyo kule ncwadi. Umprofethikazi uHulida

Wathi kubo : Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Tshelani umuntu onithume kimi ukuthi:

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

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.

Wawadiliza ama -altare, waphula o-Ashera nezithombe ezibaziweyo kwaba luthuli, wawanquma onke ama -altare empepho ezweni lonke lakwa -Israyeli, wabuyela eJerusalema.

Bafika kuHilikiya umpristi omkhulu , bayinikeza imali eyayilethwe endlini kaNkulunkulu iqoqwe ngamaLevi, abalindisango, esandleni sakwaManase no- Efrayimi, nakuyo yonke insali yakwa -Israyeli, nakuye wonke uJuda noBenjamini, nakwabakhileyo eJerusalema;

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ababekhona balenza iphasika ngaleso sikha thi nomkhosi wesinkwa esingenamvubelo izinsuku eziyisikhombisa.

Alenziwanga iphasika elinjengalelo kwa -Israyeli kusukela emihleni kaSamuweli umprofethi , nawo onke amakhosi akwa -Israyeli awenzanga iphasika elinjengalelo elenziwa nguJosiya, nabapristi, namaLevi, naye wonke uJuda no-Israyeli owayekhona, kanye nabakhileyo eJerusalema.

Naye uJeremiya wamlilela uJosiya ; bonke abahlabeleli besilisa nabesifazane bakhuluma ngoJosiya ekulileni kwabo kuze kube namuhla ; bakwenza kwaba yisimiso kwa-Israyeli; bheka, kulotshiwe eziLilweni.

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

Washo kumaLevi afundisa wonke u-Israyeli, ayengcwele kuJehova, wathi: Bekani umphongolo ongcwele endlini ayakhayo uSolomoni indodana kaDavide, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli; akusayikubakho mthwalo emahlombe enu ; khonzani manje uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu nabantu bakhe u-Israyeli.

Zilungiseni ngezindlu zawoyihlo ngezigaba zenu n jengokubhala kukaDavide inkosi yakwa-Israyeli nanjengokubhala kukaSolomoni indodana yakhe,

Wayihlubuka inkosi uNebukadinesari eyayimfungisile uJehova , wenza lukhuni intamo yakhe , wenza lukhuni nenhliziyo yakhe ukuba ingaphendukeli kuJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.

Ezinye izindaba zikaJehoyakimi , nezinengiso azenzayo , nokunye okufumaniseke kuye, bheka, kulotshiwe encwadini yamakhosi akwa -Israyeli nakwaJuda; uJehoyakini indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.

Kwakungekho lutho emphongolweni, kuphela izibhebhe ezimbili zamatshe ezabekwa khona nguMose eHorebe , lapho uJehova enza isivumelwano nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ekuphumeni kwabo eGibithe.

Khona uSolomoni wabutha amalunga akwa -Israyeli, nazo zonke izinhloko zezizwe, izikhulu zawoyise babantwana bakwa -Israyeli eJerusalema ukuba bakhuphule umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova emzini kaDavide oyiSiyoni.

Onke amadoda akwa -Israyeli abuthana enkosini emkhosini wasenyangeni yesikhombisa.

Esefikile onke amalunga akwa-Israyeli, amaLevi aphakamisa umphongolo.

Inkosi uSolomoni nayo yonke inhlangano yakwa-Israyeli eyayihlangene kuyo babe phambi komphongolo behlaba izimvu nezinkabi ezingenakulotshwa , zingenakubalwa ngobuningi bazo.

UJehova uliqinisile izwi alikhulumayo , ngokuba mina ngivelile esikhundleni sikaDavide ubaba, ngihlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sakwa-Israyeli njengokusho kuka Jehova , ngakhele igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli indlu.

Ngiwumisile lapho umphongolo okukuwo isivumelwano sikaJehova asenza nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

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,

ethi: Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, akakho unkulunkulu onjengawe ezulwini noma emhlabeni , ogcina isivumelwano nomusa nezinceku zakho ezihamba phambi kwakho ngayo yonke inhliziyo yazo,

Ngalokho, Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, gcina nenceku yakho uDavide ubaba lokho owakusho kuyo ukuthi : Akuyikunqunywa muntu kuwe emehlweni ami ukuhlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sakwa -Israyeli, uma kuphela abantwana bakho beqaphela indlela yabo uk uba bahambe e mthethweni wami, njengalokho wena uhambe phambi kwami.

Ngalokho, Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, maliqiniseke izwi lakho owalikhuluma encekwini yakho uDavide.

Kulalele ukunxusa kwenceku yakho nokwabantu bakho u -Israyeli abayakukukhuleka bebhekene nale ndaw o, ukuzwe usendaweni yakho yokuhlala ezulwini, nalapho usuzwile, uthethelele.

Uma abantu bakho u -Israyeli benqotshwa yisitha , ngokuba bonile kuwe , kepha bese bebuya bephindela kuwe , balivume igama lakho , bakhuleke, banxuse kuwe kule ndlu,

mawuzwe wena ezulwini , uthethelele isono sabantu bakho u -Israyeli, ubabuyisele ezweni owalinika bona nawoyise.

mawuzwe wena ezulwini , uthethelele isono sezinceku zakho nesabantu bakho u -Israyeli, lapho ubafundisa indlela enhle abayakuhamba ngayo , uthume imvula ezweni lakho obanike abantu bakho libe yifa labo.

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,

Inkosi yayisiphenduka , yalibusisa lonke ibandla lakwa-Israyeli, lonke ibandla lakwa-Israyeli lalimi.

Futhi owezizwe ongesiye owabantu bakho u -Israyeli, lapho evela ezweni elikude ngenxa yegama lakho elikhulu nesandla sakho esinamandla nengalo yakho eyeluliweyo, abesefika ukukhuleka kule ndlu,

mawuzwe wena ezulwini, indawo yakho yokuhlala, wenze njengakho konke lo wezizwe akhala ngakho kuwe , ukuze bonke abantu bomhlaba bazi igama lakho, bakwesabe wena njengabantu bakho u -Israyeli, nokuze bazi ukuthi le ndlu engiyakhileyo ibiziwe ngegama lakho.

Yathi: Makabongwe uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli owakhuluma ngomlomo wakhe kuDavide ubaba, ukugcwalisile ngesandla sakhe, ethi:

Kusukela osukw ini engakhipha ngalo abantu bami u -Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe angikhethanga muzi ezizweni zonke zakwa -Israyeli ukwakha indlu ukuba igama lami libe khona lapho , futhi angikhethanga muntu ukuba abe ngumbusi wabantu bami u-Israyeli,

kodwa ngikhethe iJerusal ema ukuba igama lami libe khona lapho , ngakhetha noDavide ukuba abe phezu kwabantu bami u-Israyeli.

Kwakusenhliziyweni kaDavide ubaba ukwakhela igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli indlu.

Ngosuku lwamashumi amabili nantathu lwenyanga yesikhombisa wabamukisa abantu baya ematendeni abo , bethokoza benezinhliziyo ezenamileyo ngobuhle uJehova abenzel e oDavide noSolomoni no -Israyeli abantu bakhe. UNkulunkulu uyabonakala ngokwesibili kuSolomoni

ngiyakusimisa isihlalo sobukhosi sombuso wakho njengesivumelwano sami noDavide uyihlo ngokuthi: Akuyikunqunywa muntu kuwe ukuba kungabikho mbusi kwa-Israyeli.

Lapho a bantwana bakwa -Israyeli bebona ukwehla komlilo , nenkazimulo kaJehova iphezu kwendlu , bakhothama phansi ngobuso phezu kwendawo egandaywe ngamatshe , bakhuleka, babonga uJehova , ngokuba muhle nangokuba umusa wakhe umi phakade.

Inkosi uSolomoni yanikela ngomhlatshelo wezinkunzi eziyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nambili nezimvu eziyizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amabili . Inkosi nabo bonke abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bahlambulula-ke indlu kaJehova.

Abapristi bema njengezikhundla zabo kanye namaLev i, benezinto zokubethwa ayezenzile uDavide inkosi ukuba babonge uJehova , ngokuba umusa wakhe umi phakade , lapho uDavide edumisa ngezandla zabo ; abapristi bakhalisa amacilongo ngaphambi kwabo, esemi wonke u-Israyeli.

USolomoni wagubha-ke umkhosi ngaleso sikhathi izinsuku eziyisikhombisa, wonke u-Israyeli enaye, ibandla elikhulu kakhulu, kusukela ekuyeni eHamati kuze kube semfuleni waseGibithe.

USolomoni wakhuphula indodakazi kaFaro emzini kaDavide , wayiyisa endlini ayakhele yona , ngokuba wathi : Akuyikuhlala owesifazane endlini kaDavide inkosi yakwa -Israyeli, ngokuba ingcwele , lapho kufike khona umphongolo kaJehova.

imizi uHiramu anike yona uSolomoni, uSolomoni wayivusa, wahlalisa khona abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Abantu bonke abaseleyo kumaHeti , nama-Amori, namaPherizi, namaHivi, namaJebusi, abangesibo abakwa-Israyeli,

abantwana babo abasala emva kwabo ezweni , abangaqedwanga ngabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, kubona uSolomoni wabiza izisebenzi kuze kube namuhla.

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

USolomoni wabusa e Jerusalema phezu kuka -Israyeli wonke iminyaka engamashumi amane.

Makabongwe uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho owenamele wena ukuba akubeke esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi ukuba ube yinkosi kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho; ngokuba uNkulunkulu wakho wamthanda u -Israyeli waze wammisa kuze kube phakade, ngalokho wakubeka inkosi phezu kwabo ukuba wenze ukwahlulela nokulunga.

BangamaHeberu na ? Nami. Bangaba-Israyeli na ? Nami. Bayinzalo ka - Abrahama na? Nami.

asenzi njengoMose owamboza ubuso bakhe ngendwangu, ukuze abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bangakubuki ukugcina kwalokho obekuzakuphela.

Kepha uma inkonzo yokufa , enamagama aqoshiwe ematsheni , yafika inenkazimulo, ngangokuba abantwana bakwa -Israyeli babengenakubuka ubuso bukaMose ngenxa yenkazimulo yobuso bakhe eyayingephelayo,

Ama-Aramu esebonile ukuthi anqotshiwe phambi kuka -Israyeli, abuthana ndawonye.

UDavide watshelwa, wabutha wonke u -Israyeli, wawela iJordani , wafika eHelamu. Ama-Aramu azihlela ukuhlangabezana noDavide, alwa naye.

Ama-Aramu abaleka phambi kuka -Israyeli; uDavide wabulala kuma -Aramu izinqola ezingamakhulu ayisikhombisa nabamahhashi abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane , wamshaya uShobaki induna yempi yabo , wafela khona lapho.

Lapho onke amakhosi ayeyizinceku zikaHadadezeri ebonile ukuthi anqotshiwe phambi kuka -Israyeli, enza ukuthula no -Israyeli, abakhonza. Ama-Aramu ayesesaba ukusiza abantwana bakwa-Amoni futhi.

Kepha uJowabe esebona ukuthi izimpondo zempi zimhaqile ngaphambili nangasemuva wakhetha kwabakhethekileyo bakwa-Israyeli, wabahlela ukuba balwe nama-Aramu;

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.

U-Uriya wathi kuDavide : Umphongolo, no-Israyeli, noJuda bahlezi emadokodweni; inkosi yami uJowabe nezinceku zenkosi yami zimisile endle ; mina-ke, pho, ngingene endlini yami, ngidle, ngiphuze, ngilale nomkami na? Kuphila kwakho nokuphila komphefumulo wakho, angiyikuyenza leyo nto.

Ngokuba wena wakwenza ngasese , kepha mina ngiyakukwenza lokhu phambi kuka-Israyeli wonke naphambi kwelanga.

UNathani wathi kuDavide: Nguwe lowo muntu. Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Ngakugcoba ube yinkosi phezu kuka -Israyeli, ngakophula esandleni sikaSawule,

ngakunika indlu yenkosi yakho , nabafazi benkosi yakho esifubeni sakho , ngakupha indlu yakwa -Israyeli neyakwaJuda ; uma lok ho bekukuncane , ngangiyakukwenezela lokhu nalokho.

Yena wathi kuye : Qha, mnewethu, ungangiphoqi, ngokuba akufanele ukuba kwenziwe kanjalo kwa-Israyeli; ungenzi lobu buwula.

Mina-ke ngingayaphi nehlazo lami na ? Nawe uyakuba njengomunye weziwula zakwa -Israyeli. Ngalokho ake ukhulume nenkosi , ngokuba ayiyikunginqabela nawe.

Kwa-Israyeli wonke kwakungekho muntu omuhle njengo -Abisalomu owababazeka kakhulu, kungekho sici kuye kusukela ematheni onyawo kuze kube sokhakhayini.

Kepha u -Abisalomu wathuma izinhloli ezizweni zonke zakwa -Israyeli ngokuthi: Lapho nizwa ukukhala kwecilongo , anothi: U-Abisalomu uyinkosi eHebroni.

Kwafika umbiki kuDavide, wathi: Izinhliziyo zabantu bakwa -Israyeli zilandela u-Abisalomu.

U-Abisalomu wavuka ekuseni , wema ngaseceleni kwendlela yesango ; kwakuthi wonke um untu onecala eliya enkosini ukuba lithethwe , u- Abisalomu wambiza wathi : Ungowamuphi umuzi na ? athi: Inceku yakho ingowesinye sezizwe zakwa-Israyeli.

Wenze njalo u-Abisalomu ku bo bonke abakwa -Israyeli abeza enkosini ngamacala; u-Abisalomu weba izinhliziyo zabantu bakwa-Israyeli.

U-Abisalomu nabantu bonke , amadoda akwa -Israyeli, bafika eJerusalema, u-Ahithofeli enabo.

Wayesethi uHushayi ku-Abisalomu: Qha, lo okhethwe nguJehova, nayilaba bantu, nangabantu bonke bakwa-Israyeli, ngiyakuba ngowakhe , ngihlale naye.

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.

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

Yayisithi inkosi : Iphi indodana yenkosi yakho na ? USiba wathi enkosini : Bheka, ihlezi eJerusalema , ngokuba yathi : Namuhla indlu ka -Israyeli iyakubuyisela kimi umbuso kababa.

naye onesibindi, onhliziyo yakhe injengenhliziyo yengonyama , uyakuphela amandla, ngokuba wonke u-Israyeli uyazi ukuthi uyihlo uyiqhawe , nabanaye bangamadoda anamandla.

Ngalokho ngiyaluleka ukuba wo nke u -Israyeli abuthane kuwe , kusukela kwaDani kuze kufike eBeri Sheba , ngangesihlabathi esingasolwandle ngobuningi, wena uqobo lwakho uye empini.

Noma engena emzini, wonke u -Israyeli uyakuyisa amagoda kulowo muzi , siwuhudulele emfuleni, kungabe kusafunyanwa khona netshana elilodwa.

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.

UHushayi wayesethi kuSadoki naku -Abiyathara abapristi : U-Ahithofeli weluleka u -Abisalomu namalunga akwa-Israyeli kanje nakanje ; mina ngeluleke kanje nakanje.

UDavide wayesefika eMahanayimi . U-Abisalomu waliwela iJordani , yena nabo bonke abantu bakwa-Israyeli kanye naye.

O-Israyeli no-Abisalomu bamisa ezweni lakwaGileyadi.

Leli zwi lamjabulisa u-Abisalomu nawo onke amalunga akwa-Israyeli.

UJowabe wayesebetha icilongo , abantu babuya ekumxosheni u -Israyeli, ngokuba uJowabe wabagodla abantu.

Bamthatha u -Abisalomu, bamlahla emgodini omkhulu ehlathini , babeka phezu kwakhe inqwaba enkulu kakhulu yamatshe ; bonke abakwa -Israyeli, kwaba yilowo nalowo, babalekela ematendeni abo.

Base bephumela endle ukulwa no -Israyeli, kwaliwa ehlathini lakwa - Efrayimi.

Abantu bakwa -Israyeli banqotshwa lapho phambi kwezinceku zikaDavide , kwakukhona ukubulalana okukhulu ngalolo suku , abantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili.

Inkosi uDavide yathumela kuSadoki naku -Abiyathara abapristi , yathi: Khulumani kumalunga akwaJuda , nithi: Kungani ukuba nibe ngabokugcina ukubuyisela inkosi endlini yayo , lokhu kufinyelele enkosini nasendlini yayo konke ukukhuluma kuka-Israyeli, na?

UDavide wathi : Nginamsebenzi muni nani madodana kaSeruya ukuba nimelane nami namuhla na ? Kuzakubulawa umuntu namuhla kwa -Israyeli na? Angazi yini mina ukuthi namuhla ngiyinkosi phezu kuka-Israyeli na?

Bonke abantu bawela iJordani, nenkosi yawela; inkosi yamanga uBarizilayi, yambusisa; wabuyela endaweni yakhe. Ukuphikisana kuka-Israyeli noJuda

Yayisiwela inkosi, yaya eGiligali, noKimihamu wawela nayo; bonke abantu bakwaJuda bayiwelisa inkosi kanye nenxenye yabantu bakwa-Israyeli.

Bheka, base befika bonke abantu bakwa-Israyeli enkosini, bathi enkosini: Abafowethu amadoda akwaJuda bakwebeleni, bawelisa inkosi nabendlu yayo iJordani kanye nabo bonke abantu bakwaDavide benaye, na?

Bonke abantu bakwaJuda baphendula abantu bakwa -Israyeli, bathi: Ngokuba inkosi iyisih lobo sethu impela ; kungani ukuba nithukuthele ngale nto na? Sike sadla ntoni engeyenkosi na? Isixoshisile ngamaxosho na?

Abantu bakwa-Israyeli baphendula abantu bakwaJuda, bathi: Sinezinxenye eziyishumi kunani enkosini , yebo, nakuDavide; nisideleleni na ? Izwi lethu lokubuyisa inkosi lalingesilo elokuqala na? Kepha amazwi abantu bakwaJuda ayelukhuni kunamazwi abantu bakwa-Israyeli.

Yayisisuka inkosi , yahlala esangweni . Kwathiwa kubo bonke abantu : Bhekani, inkosi ihlezi esangweni . Base befika abantu bonke phambi kwenkosi. Kepha ab akwa-Israyeli babebalekele , kwaba yilowo nalowo etendeni lakhe.

Bonke abantu babephikisana ezizweni zonke zakwa -Israyeli, bethi: Inkosi yasophula esandleni sezitha zethu , yasikhulula esandleni samaFilisti ; manje isibalekile ezweni, imbalekele u-Abisalomu.

Balila, bakhala, bazila ukudla kwaze kwahlwa ngenxa kaSawule , noJonathani indodana yakhe , nabantu bakaJehova, nendlu ka -Israyeli, ngokuba bebewile ngenkemba.

Udumo lwakho, Israyeli, lubulewe ezindaweni eziphakemeyo. Yeka ukuwa kwamaqhawe!

Nina madodakazi akwa -Israyeli, mkhaleleni uSawul e owanigqokisa kamnandi ngokubomvu, owavunulisa izambatho zenu ngezivunulo zegolide.

UDavide wathi kuye : Uvelaphi na? Wathi kuye: Ngibalekile ekamu lakwa - Israyeli.

Kwakukhona umuntu omubi ogama lakhe lalinguSheba indodana kaBikri umBenjamini; wabetha icilongo , wathi: Asinasabelo kuDavide , asinafa endodaneni kaJese; yiyani nonke ematendeni enu, Israyeli.

Wadabula izizwe zonke zakwa -Israyeli, waze wafika e -Abela, naseBeti Mahakha, nakuwo onke amaBeri; babuthana bamxosha nakhona.

Mina ngingowokuthula nothembekileyo kwa-Israyeli; wena ufuna ukuchitha umuzi nonina kwa-Israyeli; uyakuligwinyelani ifa likaJehova na?

Bonke abantu bakwa -Israyeli base benyuka bengasamlandeli uDavide , bamlandela uSheba indodana kaBikri; kepha abantu bakwaJuda babambelela enkosini yabo kusukela eJordani kuze kube seJerusalema.

UJowabe wayesephezu kwempi yonke yakwa -Israyeli; uBenaya indodana kaJehoyada wayephezu kwamaKhereti namaPheleti;

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

Kepha u-Abishayi indodana kaSeruya wamsiza , wamshaya umFi listi wambulala. Base befunga kuye abantu bakaDavide , bathi: Awusayikuphuma impi nathi, funa ucime isibani sakwa-Israyeli.

Inkosi yayisibiza abaseGibeyoni , yakhuluma kubo , abaseGibeyoni babengesibo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, beyinsali yama -Amori; abantwana bakwa-Israyeli babefungile kubo ; uSawule wafuna ukubabulala ngokushisekela kwakhe abantwana bakwa-Israyeli nabakwaJuda;

Wameyisa u-Israyeli; ngalokho uJonathani indodana kaShimeyi umfowabo kaDavide wambulala.

AbaseGibeyoni bathi kuye : Akundaba yesiliva negolide noSawule nendlu yakhe, futhi akundaba yokubulala umuntu kwa -Israyeli. Wathi: Enikushoyo ngiyakunenzela khona.

Bathi enkosini : Umuntu owasibul alayo waceba ngathi ukuba sichithwe singasali phakathi kwemikhawulo yakwa-Israyeli,

Lawa angamazwi okugcina kaDavide . UDavide indodana kaJese uthi , umuntu owaphakanyiselwa phezulu uthi , ogcotshiweyo kaNkulunkulu kaJakobe nomhlabeleli omnandi wakwa-Israyeli usho ukuthi:

UNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli wathi, iDwala lika-Israyeli lakhuluma kimi ukuthi: Obusa abantu ngokulunga, abuse ngokumesaba uNkulunkulu,

Emva kwakhe kwakungu -Eleyazare in dodana kaDodayi indodana yomAhohi, omunye wamaqhawe amathathu ayenoDavide mhla edelela amaFilisti ayebuthene lapho ukulwa, abantu bakwa-Israyeli sebehambile;

Intukuthelo kaJehova yabuye yavuthela u-Israyeli, wamvusa uDavide ngabo ngokuthi: Hamba ubale u-Israyeli noJuda.

UJehova wayesethuma isifo phezu kuka -Israyeli kusukela ekuseni kuze kube sesikhathini esinqunyiweyo ; kwafa abantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi ayisikhombisa kusukela kwaDani kuze kube seBeri Sheba.

Inkosi yathi kuJowabe induna yempi eyayinaye: Hamba ezizweni zonke zakwa-Israyeli kusukela kwaDani kuze kube seBeri Sheba , nibale abantu ukuba ngiwazi umumo wabantu.

UDavide wamakhela khona uJehova i -altare, wanikela nge minikelo yokushiswa nangeminikelo yokuthula . UJehova wancengwa ngenxa yezwe , isifo sanqamuka kwa-Israyeli.

Nokho izwi lenkosi lamahlula uJowabe nezinduna zempi . UJowabe nezinduna zempi baphuma ebusweni benkosi ukuba babale abantu bakwa - Israyeli.

UJowabe wayesenika inkosi umumo wabantu ababaliweyo ; kwaba khona kwa-Israyeli amadoda anamandla ayizinkulungwane ezi ngamakhulu ayisishiyagalombili ahloma inkemba ; amadoda akwaJuda ayeyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisihlanu. Isifo

U-Ishi Bosheti indodana kaSawule wayeneminyaka engamashumi amane ekuqaleni kwakhe ukubusa phezu kuka -Israyeli; wabusa iminyaka emibili . Kepha indlu yakwaJuda yamlandela uDavide.

Kwakuyimpi enzima ngalolo suku ; u-Abineri wahlulwa kanye nabantu bakwa-Israyeli phambi kwezinceku zikaDavide.

UJowabe wayesebetha icilongo; bonke abantu bema, ababe besamxosha u- Israyeli, futhi ababe besalwa.

wambeka inkosi kwaGileyadi , nakuma-Ashurimi, naseJizreyeli, nakwa- Efrayimi noBenjamini, nakwa-Israyeli wonke.

kudluliswe umbuso endlini kaSawule , kumiswe isihlalo sobukhosi sikaDavide phezu kuka-Israyeli naphezu kukaJuda , kusukela kwa Dani kuze kufike eBeri Sheba.

U-Abineri wayesethuma izithunywa kuDavide esikhundleni sakhe ngokuthi: Ngelikabani izwe na ? ethi futhi : Yenza isivumelwano nami ; bheka, isandla sami siyakuba nawe ukubuyisela kuwe wonke u-Israyeli.

U-Abineri waba nezwi namalunga akwa -Israyeli, ethi: Ngezikhathi ezidlulileyo nafuna uDavide abe yinkosi phezu kwenu;

kwenzeni lokho manje , ngokuba uJehov a ukhulumile ngoDavide ukuthi : Ngesandla senceku yami uDavide ngiyakusindisa abantu bami u -Israyeli esandleni samaFilisti nasesandleni sazo zonke izitha zabo.

U-Abineri wakhuluma futhi ezindlebeni zakwaBenjamini ; u-Abineri waya futhi ukukhuluma ezindle beni zikaDavide eHebroni konke okwakukuhle ku - Israyeli nakuyo yonke indlu yakwaBenjamini.

U-Abineri wayesethi kuDavide: Ngiyakusuka ngihambe ngiqoqele wonke u - Israyeli enkosini yami, inkosi, ukuba benze isivumelwano nawe nokuba ubuse phezu kwakho konke ekufisayo inhliziyo yakho . UDavide wammukisa u - Abineri, wahamba ngokuthula.

Base beqonda bonke abantu naye wonke u -Israyeli ngalolo suku ukuthi kwakungesikho okwenkosi ukubulala u-Abineri indodana kaNeri.

Inkosi yathi ezincekwini zayo : Anazi yini ukuthi kufile umbusi nomuntu omkhulu kwa-Israyeli namuhla na?

Lapho isizwile indodana kaSawule ukuthi u -Abineri ufile eHebroni , izandla zayo zaba buthakathaka, nabo bonke abakwa-Israyeli bakhathazeka.

Izizwe zonke zakwa-Israyeli zafika kuDavide eHebroni , zasho zathi: Bheka, thina siyithambo lakho nenyama yakho.

UDavide waqonda ukuthi uJehova wayemmisile impela ukuba abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli nokuthi uphakamisile umbuso wakhe ngenxa yabantu bakhe u - Israyeli.

Lapho amaFilisti esezwile ukuthi bamgcobile uDavide ukuba abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli, onke amaFilisti enyuka ukumfuna uDavide ; uDavide wakuzwa, wehlela enqabeni.

Ngesikhathi esidlulileyo , uSawule eseyinkosi phezu kwethu , nguwe owakhipha nowangenisa u-Israyeli; uJehova wathi kuwe : Wena uyakwalusa abantu bami u-Israyeli, wena uyakuba ngumbusi wakwa-Israyeli.

Kwase kufika onke amalunga akwa -Israyeli enkosini eHebroni ; inkosi uDavide yenza isivumelwano nawo eHebroni phambi kukaJehova ; amgcoba uDavide abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli.

EHebroni wabusa kwaJuda iminyaka eyisikhombisa nezinyanga eziyisithupha; eJerusalema wabusa iminyaka engamashum i amathathu nantathu kwa-Israyeli wonke nakwaJuda.

UDavide wabuye wabutha bonke abakhethiweyo bakwa -Israyeli, izinkulungwane ezingamashumi amathathu.

Kanjalo uDavide nayo yonke indlu ka -Israyeli benyusa umphongolo kaJehova ngokukhamuluka nangokukhala kwecilongo.

Wababela bonke abantu esixukwini sonke sakwa -Israyeli, abesilisa nabesifazane, kwaba yilowo nalowo ucezu lwesinkwa , nesicubu senyama , nesigaxa sezithelo zomvini ezomileyo . Base behamba abantu bonke , baya, kwaba yilowo nalowo ekhaya lakubo.

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.

Wayesethi uDavide kuMikhali : Ngaphambi kukaJehova owangikhetha phezu kukayihlo naphezu kwayo yonke indlu yakhe ukungimisa ukuba ngibe ngumbusi wabantu bakaJehova kwa -Israyeli, yebo, ngaphambi kukaJehova ngathokoza.

UDavide kanye nendlu yonke k a-Israyeli bathokoza ebusweni bukaJehova benezinto zonke zokubetha zomsayipuresi , namahabhu, nezingubhu, nezigubhu, nobuxhaka, namasimbali.

Ngiyakumisela abantu bami u -Israyeli indawo, ngibatshale ukuba bahlale endaweni yabo , bangabe besanyakaziswa ; futhi abantu ababi abasayikubahlupha njengakuqala,

kusukela osukwini engayaleza ngalo abahluleli ukuba babe phezu kwabantu bami u -Israyeli, ngikuphumuze ezitheni zakho zonke . Futhi uJehova uyakutshela ukuthi uJehova uyakukwenzela wena indlu.

Yisiphi isizwe nesisodwa emhlabeni esinjengabantu bakho u -Israyeli, uNkulunkulu ayakuzihlengela bona ukuba babe ngabantu bakhe , azenzele igama, anenzele nina izinto ezinkulu, alenzele izwe lakini izinto ezesabekayo phambi kwabantu bakho owazihlengela bona eGibithe ezizweni nakubo onkulunkulu bazo, na?

Wazimisela ukuba abantu bakho u-Israyeli babe ngabantu bakho kuze kube phakade, wena Jehova ube nguNkulunkulu wabo.

Malibe likhulu igama lakho kuze kube phakade ukuze kuthiwe : U Jehova Sebawoti unguNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, indlu yenceku yakho uDavide imiswe ngaphambi kwakho.

Ngokuba wena Jehova Sebawoti , Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, wambulele endlebeni yenceku yakho ukuthi : Ngiyakukwakhela indlu; ngalokho inceku yakho ithole isibindi sokukhuleka lo mkhuleko kuwe.

Ngokuba angihlalanga ndlu kusukela osukwini engakhuphula ngalo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli eGibithe kuze kube namuhla, kepha ngangilokhu ngihamba etendeni nasetabernakele.

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?

Ngalokho uyakusho kanje encekwini yami uDavide , uthi: U sho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uthi: Mina ngakuthatha edlelweni ekwaluseni izimvu ukuba ube ngumbusi wabantu bami kwa-Israyeli;

UDavide wabusa phezu kuka -Israyeli wonke , uDavide waphatha ukwahlulela nokulunga kubo bonke abantu bakhe.

Emva kuka-Abimeleki kwavela uThola indodana kaPhuwa kaDodo , umuntu wakwa-Isakare, ukuba asindise u -Israyeli; wayehlala eShamiri ezintabeni zakwa-Efrayimi.

Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bakhala kuJehova, bathi: Sonile kuwe, ngokuba simshiyile uNkulunkulu wethu, sakhonza oBali.

UJehova wathi kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli: Anginisindisanga yini kubo abaseGibithe, nakuwo ama-Amori, nakubo abantwana bakwa-Amoni, nakuwo amaFilisti, na?

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bathi kuJehova : Sonile; yenza kithi okuthandayo; kepha ake usophule kuphela namuhla.

Base besusa onkulunkulu babezizwe phakathi kwabo , bamkhonza uJehova; umphefumulo wakhe wakhathazeka ngokuhlupheka kwabakwa-Israyeli.

Kwabuthwa aba ntwana bakwa -Amoni, bamisa kwaGileyadi . Kepha abantwana bakwa-Israyeli babuthana, bamisa eMispa.

Wamahlulela u -Israyeli iminyaka engamashumi amabili nantathu , wafa, wembelwa eShamiri.

Emva kwakhe kwavela uJayire wakwaGileyadi , wamahlulela u -Israyeli iminyaka engamashumi amabili nambili.

UJayire wafa, wembelwa eKhamoni. Abakwa-Israyeli babuyela esandleni sezitha zabo

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli babuye benza okubi emehlweni kaJehova , babakhonza oBali , no-Ashitaroti, nawonkulunkulu base -Aramu, nawonkulunkulu baseSidoni , nawonkulunkulu bakwaMowabi , nawonkulunkulu babantwana bakwa -Amoni, nawonkulunkulu bamaFilisti , bamshiya uJehova, kabamkhonza.

Intukuthelo kaJehova yamvuthela u -Israyeli, wathengisa ngabo esandleni samaFilisti nasesandleni sabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Bakhathaza, bacindezela abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ngalowo mnyaka ; iminyaka eyishumi nesishiyagalombili babacinde zela bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ababengaphesheya kweJordani ezweni lama -Amori elikwaGileyadi.

Abantwana bakwa-Amoni bawela iJordani ukuba balwe noJuda noBenjamini nendlu yakwa-Efrayimi; u-Israyeli wantula kakhulu.

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.

wathi kuyo : Usho kanje uJefta , uthi: U-Israyeli akathathanga izwe lakwaMowabi nezwe labantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Ngokuba ekukhuphukeni kwabo eGibithe , u-Israyeli ehamba ehlane waze wafika eLwandle Olubomvu, wafika naseKadeshi,

u-Israyeli wathuma izithunyw a enkosini yakwa -Edomi, wathi: Ake ngidabule izwe lakho ; kepha inkosi yakwa -Edomi ayilalelanga ; nasenkosini yakwaMowabi wathuma kanjalo ; kepha ayivumanga; u-Israyeli wayesehlala eKadeshi.

U-Israyeli wayesethuma izithunywa kuSihoni inkosi yama -Amori, inkosi yaseHeshiboni; u-Israyeli wathi kuye: Ake sidabule izwe lakho, siye endaweni yethu.

Kodwa uSihoni akamethembanga u -Israyeli ukuba adabule emkhawulweni wakhe; kepha uSihoni wabutha bonke abantu bak he, wamisa eJahasi, walwa no-Israyeli.

UJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli wan ikela uSihoni nabo bonke abantu bakhe esandleni sakwa -Israyeli, bababulala; u-Israyeli wadla izwe lonke lama-Amori, abantu balelo zwe.

Manje uJeh ova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli uwaxoshile ama -Amori phambi kwabantu bakhe u-Israyeli; wena uyakulidla izwe na?

Pho, ungcono yini kunoBalaki indodana kaSipori , inkosi yakwaMowabi , na? Wake waphikisana no-Israyeli, wake walwa nabo na?

U-Israyeli esahlala eHeshiboni nasemizaneni yalo , nase-Aroweri nasemizaneni yalo , nasemizini yonke engaseceleni kwe -Arinoni iminyaka engamakhulu amathathu, anisaphucanga ngani yona ngaleso sikhathi na?

Mina angikonanga, kepha wena wenza okubi kimi ngokulwa nami; uJehova uMahluleli makahlulele namuhla phakathi kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli nabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Wababulala kusukela e -Aroweri kuze kufike eMiniti , imizi engamashumi amabili, nase-Abela Keramimi ngokuceka okukhulu kakhulu . Kanjalo abantwana bakwa-Amoni banqotshwa phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli. Indodakazi kaJefta

Kwathi emva kwesikhashana abantwana bakwa-Amoni balwa no-Israyeli.

Kwaba yisimiso kwa -Israyeli ukuba amadodakazi akwa-Israyeli aye yonke iminyaka ukuyitusa indodakazi kaJefta wakwaGileyad i izinsuku ezine ngomnyaka.

Bathi abantwana bakwa-Amoni belwa no-Israyeli, amalunga akwaGileyadi aya amlanda uJefta ezweni laseThobi.

Emva kwakhe u-Eloni wakwaZebuloni wahlulela u-Israyeli; wamahlulela u- Israyeli iminyaka eyishumi.

Emva kwakhe u -Abidoni indodana kaHileli wasePirathoni wahlulela u - Israyeli.

Wayenamadodana angamashumi amane namadodana amadodana akhe angamashumi amathathu agibela amathole ezimbongolo angamashumi ayisikhombisa; wamahlulela u-Israyeli iminyaka eyisishiyagalombili.

UJefta wamahlulela u -Israyeli iminyaka eyisithupha . Wafa uJefta wakwaGileyadi, wambelwa komunye wemizi yakwaGileyadi. O-Ibisani, no-Eloni, no-Abidoni

Emva kwakhe u-Ibisani waseBetlehema wahlulela u-Israyeli.

Wayenamadodana angamashumi amathathu ; amadodakazi angamashumi amathathu wawendisa , wathathela amadodana akhe izintombi ezingamashumi amathathu. Wamahlulela u-Israyeli iminyaka eyisikhombisa.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli babuye benza okubi emehlweni kaJehova ; uJehova wabanikela esandleni samaFilisti iminyaka engamashumi amane.

ngokuba bheka , uyakukhulelwa, uzale indodana , impuco ayiyikuthinta ekhanda layo , ngokuba umntwana uyakuba ngumNaziri kaNkulunkulu kwasesizalweni; uyakuqala ukusindisa u-Israyeli esandleni samaFilisti.

Kepha uyise nonina babengazi ukuthi lokho kwavela kuJehova , ngokuba wayefuna ithuba lokulwa namaFilisti . Ngaleso sikhathi amaFilisti ayebusa phezu kuka-Israyeli.

Wahlulela u -Israyeli ngezinsuku zamaFilisti iminyaka engamashumi amabili.

Base behla a bafowabo nayo yonke indlu kayise , bamthatha, bamenyusa, bammbela phakathi kweSo ra ne -Eshitawoli ethuneni likaManowa uyise . Wamahlulela u-Israyeli iminyaka engamashumi amabili.

Ngalezo zinsuku kwakungekho nkosi kwa -Israyeli; yilowo nalowo wenza okulungile emehlweni akhe.

Ngalezo zinsuku kwakungekho nkosi kwa -Israyeli; ngalezo zinsuku isizwe sakwaDani sazifunela ifa lokuhlala , ngokuba kuze kube ngalolo suku babengabelwanga ifa phakathi kwezizwe zakwa-Israyeli.

Bathi kuye: Thula, ubeke isandla sakho emlonyeni wakho , uhambe nathi, ube ngubaba nompristi wethu ; kuhle yini ukuba ube ngumpristi wendlu yomuntu munye kunokuba ube ngumpristi wesizwe nomndeni kwa -Israyeli na?

Baqamba igama lomuzi ngokuthi uDani ngegama likaDani uyise owazalelwa u-Israyeli; kepha igama lomuzi laliyiLayishi kuqala.

Kwathi ngalezo zinsuku kungekho inkosi kwa-Israyeli, kwakukhona umLevi othile owayegogobele ohlangothini olungasemuva kwezintaba zakwa - Efrayimi, owazithathela isancinza eBetlehema Juda.

Inkosi yayo yathi kuyo : Asiyikuphambukela emzini wabafokazi ongesiwo owabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, kepha siyakudlulela eGibeya.

Lapho esengenile endlini yakhe , wathatha umese , wabamba isancinza sakhe, wasihlahlela ithambo ngethambo , kwaba yizinqamu eziyishumi nambili, wasithuma emikhawulweni yonke yakwa-Israyeli.

Kwathi bonke abakubonayo bathi: Akuzange kwenziwe okunjalo, akuzange kubonwe kusukela osukwini abantwana bakwa -Israyeli abakhuphuka ngalo ezweni laseGibithe kuze kube namuhla ; zindlani ngalokho , nilulekane, nikhulume.

Kwathi emva kokufa kukaJoshuwa aban twana bakwa -Israyeli bambuza uJehova, bathi: Ngubani phakathi kwethu oyakusikhuphukelela kuwo amaKhanani kuqala ukulwa nawo na?

Kwathi u-Israyeli esenamandla , bawasebenzisa amaKhanani , kepha abawaxoshanga nokuwaxosha.

Base bephuma bonke abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, inhlangano yahlangana njengomuntu munye , kusukela kwaDani kwaze kwaba seBeri Sheba kanye nezwe lakwaGileyadi kuJehova eMispa.

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.

Abantu bonke bakwa-Israyeli babehlanganyele umuzi, bebumbene kungathi ngumuntu munye.

Izizwe zakwa-Israyeli zathuma abantu emindenini yonke yakwaBenjamini , zathi: Ububi buni lobu obenziwe phakathi kwenu na?

Ngalokho khiphani labo bantu , abantu ababi , abaseGibeya, ukuba sibabulale, sixoshe ububi kwa -Israyeli. Kepha uBenjamini kavumanga ukulalela izwi labafowabo, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Abantwana bakwaBenjamini babuthana eGibeya , bevela emizini , ukuba baphume balwe nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Abantu bakwa -Israyeli ngaphandle kukaBenjamini babalwa baba yizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amane , amadoda ahlome inkemba ; bonke labo babe ngamadoda empi.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bavuka , bakhuphukela eBethele , babuza kuNkulunkulu, bathi: Ngubani oyakusik huphukelela kuqala ukulwa nabantwana bakwaBenjamini na? UJehova wathi: NguJuda kuqala.

Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bavuka ekuseni, bamisa malungana neGibeya.

Izinhloko zabantu bonke , izizwe zonke zakwa -Israyeli, zafika ebandleni labantu bakaNkulunkulu , abantu abayimigundatshani ; abayizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amane, abahlome inkemba.

Abantu bakwa-Israyeli baphuma ukuba balwe noBenjamini ; abantu bakwa- Israyeli bazihlelela ukulwa nabo eGibeya.

Abantwana bakwaBenjamini baphuma eGibeya , babulala kwabakwa - Israyeli ngalolo suku amadoda ayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nambili.

Abantu, amadoda akwa-Israyeli, baziqinisa, babuye bahlela impi endaweni abazihlela kuyo ngosuku lokuqala.

Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bakhuphuka, bakhala phambi kukaNkulunkulu kwaze kwahlwa ; babuza kuJehova , bathi: Siyakuphinda sisondele ukulwa nabantwana bakwaBenjamini umfowethu na ? UJehova wathi : Yenyukelani kuye.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli basondela kubantwana bakwaBenjamini ngosuku lwesibili.

UBenjamini waphuma eGibeya ukuhlangabezana nabo ngosuku lwesibili , wabuye wabulala kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli amadoda ayizinkulungwane eziyishumi nesishiyagalombili; bonke labo babehlome inkemba.

Base bekhuphuka bonke abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, abantu bonke, bafika eBethele, bakhala, bahlala khona phambi kukaJehova , bazila ukudla ngalolo suku kwaze kwahlwa ; banikela ngeminikelo yokushiswa nangeminikelo yokuthula phambi kukaJehova.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli babuza kuJehova ngokuba umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu wawulapho ngalezo zinsuku;

U-Israyeli wabeka abaqamekeli kulo iGibeya nxazonke.

Abantwana bakwaBenjamini bezwa ukuthi abantwana bakwa -Israyeli babenyukele eMispa. Bathi abantwana bakwa-Israyeli: Sitsheleni ukuthi lobu bubi benziwa kanjani na?

Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bakhuphuka ukulwa nabantwana bakwaBenjamini ngosuku lwesithathu , bazihlelela ukulwa neGibeya njengakwezinye izikhathi.

Abantwana bakwaBenjamini baphuma ukulwa nabantu , badonswa, baphuma emzini ; baqala ukubulala nokuceka abantu njengakwezinye izikhathi emendweni, omunye okhuphukela eBethele , omunye oya eGibeya ensimini, kungathi amadoda angamashumi amathathu kwa-Israyeli.

Abantwana bakwaBenjamini bathi: Babulewe phambi kwethu njengakuqala. Kepha abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bathi : Masibaleke, sibadonse, baphume emzini, baye emendweni.

Bonke abantu bakwa -Israyeli basuka endaweni yabo , bazihlela eBali Tamari; abaqamekeli bakwa -Israyeli bavumbuluka endaweni yabo eMare Geba.

Kweza malungana neGibeya abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyishumi abakhethiweyo kuye wonke u-Israyeli; ukulwa kwakunzima, kepha babengazi ukuthi ingozi isifikile kubo.

UJehova wanqoba uBenjamini phambi kuka -Israyeli; abantwana bakwa - Israyeli babulala ngalolo suku kwaBenjamini abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nanhlanu nekhulu; bonke labo babehlome inkemba.

Base bebona abantwana bakwaBenjamini u kuthi banqotshiwe ; abantu bakwa-Israyeli bamdela uBenjamini lokhu bebebethemba abaqamekeli ababebabekile ngaseGibeya.

Kuthe eseneminyaka engamashumi amane ezelwe , kwafika enhliziyweni yakhe ukuba abamele abafowabo, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Nguye uMose lowo owathi kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli: U Nkulunkulu uyakunivusela umprofethi kubafowenu onjengami.

Kepha uNkulunkulu wabafulathela, wabadedela ukuba bakhonze ibandla lezulu, njengokuba kulotshiwe encwadini yabaprofethi ukuthi : Naningilethela iminikelo nemihlatshel o iminyaka engamashumi amane ehlane nina ndlu ka-Israyeli na?

INkosi yayisithi kuye : Hamba, ngokuba lo uyisitsha sami esikhethiweyo sokuphatha igama lami phambi kwabezizwe, namakhosi, nabantwana bakwa- Israyeli,

Ngokukholwa uJosefa esezakufa wakhuluma ngok uphuma kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, wayaleza ngamathambo akhe.

Ngokuba yilesi esiyisivumelwano engiyakusenza nendlu ka -Israyeli emva kwalezo zinsuku , isho iNkosi : ngiyakufaka imithetho yami engqondweni yabo, ngiyilobe ezinhliziyweni zabo, ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo, bona babe ngabantu bami.

Ngokuba lapho ebasolayo, uthi kubo: Bhekani, izinsuku ziyeza, isho iNkosi, lapho ngiyakwenza isivumelwano esisha nendlu ka-Israyeli, nendlu kaJuda,

ukuthi ngaleso sikhathi naningenaye uKristu, naningaphandle kombuso ka- Israyeli, naningabafokazi ezivumelwaneni zesithembiso , ningenathemba, ningenaNkulunkulu ezweni.

ngasokwa ngosuku lwesishiyagalombili ngingowohlanga luka -Israyeli, owesizwe sakwaBenjamini, umHeberu wamaHeberu, ngokomthetho umFarisi;

Bonke abahamba ngale ndlela makube kubo ukuthula nesihawu , yebo, ku- Israyeli kaNkulunkulu.

Kepha ngithi : U-Israyeli wayengaqondi na ? Kuqala, uMose uthi : Mina ngiyakunivusela umhawu ngabangesiso isizwe , nginithukuthelise ngesizwe esingenangqondo.

Kodwa ngo -Israyeli uthi: Usuku lonke ngelulela izandla zam i kuso isizwe esingalaleliyo nesiphikayo.

kufiphazwe amehlo abo ukuba angaboni, ugobe umhlane wabo njalo. Ngokungakholwa kuka-Israyeli insindiso yafika kwabezizwe

UNkulunkulu akasilahlanga isizwe sakhe ayesazi ngaphambili. Kumbe anazi yini ukuthi umbhalo uthini ngo -Eliya ukuba umangalela u -Israyeli kuNkulunkulu ngokuthi:

Ngokuba uma wena wanqunywa emnqumweni ongowasendle ngemvelo , wafakelwa emnqumweni omuhle ngokuphambene nemvelo , ikakhulu labo abangabemvelo bayakufakelwa emnqumweni wakubo. Ngokukholwa kwabezizwe abakwa-Israyeli bayakubuyiswa

Ngokuba angithandi , bazalwane, ukuba ningayazi le mfihlakalo , funa nizishaye abahlakaniphileyo , ukuthi inxenye ka -Israyeli yehlelwe ngubulukhuni, kuze kungene abezizwe ngokupheleleyo;

kanjalo u -Israyeli wonke uyakusindiswa , njengalokho kulots hiwe ukuthi : Kuyakuvela eSiyoni uMhlangulisi, asuse ukungalungi kuJakobe.

Kunjani, pho? Lokho u-Israyeli akufunayo akakufumananga, kepha abakhethiweyo bakufumana, abanye benziwa baba lukhuni,

U-Isaya umemeza ngo -Israyeli, uthi: Nokuba umumo wabantwana bakwa - Israyeli ungangesihlabathi solwandle, yinsali eyakusindiswa,

kepha u -Israyeli, elandela umthetho wokulunga, kafinyelelanga emthethweni.

bona bangabakwa -Israyeli, okungesabo isimo sobuntwana nenkazimulo , nezivumelwano, nokumiswa komthetho, nenkonzo, nezithembiso,

abangababo okhokho avela kubo uKr istu ngokwenyama , yena onguNkulunkulu ophezu kwakho konke , obongekayo kuze kube phakade . Amen. Abakwa-Israyeli bakhethwa nguNkulunkulu

Akusikho okungathi izwi likaNkulunkulu liphuthile . Ngokuba asibo bonke abavela ku-Israyeli abangabakwa-Israyeli;

bathatha amahlamvu esundu, baphuma ukumhlangabeza. Bamemeza bathi: Hosiyana! Ubusisiwe ozayo egameni leNkosi, yebo, iNkosi ka-Israyeli.

Nami bengingamazi ; kodwa ukuze abonakaliswe ku -Israyeli, ngalokho ngizile ngibhapathiza ngamanzi.

UNathanayeli wamphendula wathi : Rabi, uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu , uyiNkosi ka-Israyeli.

UJesu waphendula, wathi kuye: Wena ungumfundisi ka-Israyeli, awukwazi lokhu na?

Abaningi kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli uyakubaphendulela eNkosini uNkulunkulu wabo.

Uyisizile inceku yakhe u-Israyeli, ukuze akhumbule isihawu,

Mayibongwe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ngokuba ibahambele abantu bayo, yabenzela inkululeko.

Wakhula-ke umntwana , waba namandla emoyeni ; wahlala ehlane kwaze kwaba lusuku lokubonakaliswa kwakhe ku-Israyeli.

ukuba nidle , niphuze etafuleni lami embusweni wami ; niyakuhlala ezihlalweni zobukhosi, nahlulele izizwe eziyishumi nambili zakwa-Israyeli. USimoni Petru uyaxwayiswa (Math. 26:31; Mark. 14:27; Joh. 13:36)

Thina-ke besethemba ukuthi nguye ozakuhlenga u -Israyeli; kodwa phezu kwalokho konke sekulusuku lwesithathu lezo zinto zenzekile.

Bheka, kwakukhona umuntu eJerusalema ogama lakhe linguSimeyoni ; lo muntu wayelungile , emesaba uNkulunkulu , ebhekile induduzo ka -Israyeli; noMoya oNgcwele wayephezu kwakhe.

ukukhanya kokwambulela abezizwe nenkazimulo yesizwe sakho u-Israyeli.

USimeyoni wababusisa, wathi kuMariya unina : Bheka, lo umiselwe ukuwa nokuvuka kwabaningi ku-Israyeli, nesibonakaliso esiphikwayo --

Kepha ngempela ngithi kini : Kwakukhona kwa -Israyeli abafelokazi abaningi emihleni ka-Eliya, lapho izulu lalivalekile iminyaka emi thathu nezinyanga eziyisithupha, kwaba khona indlala enkulu ezweni lonke;

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

UJesu ekuzwa lokho wamangala ngayo , waphenduka, wathi esixukwini esimlandelayo: Ngithi kini : Angizange ngifumane ukukholwa okungaka nakwa-Israyeli.

UKristu, iNkosi yakwa -Israyeli, makehle manje esiphambanweni , ukuze sibone, sikholwe. Nababebethelwe kanye naye bamdumaza.

Nxa benizingela komunye umuzi , anobalekela komunye ; ngokuba ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Aniyikuqeda imizi yakwa-Israyeli, ingakafiki iNdodana yomuntu.

kodwa yanini kakhulu ezimvini ezilahlekileyo zendlu ka-Israyeli.

Kodwa waphendula wathi: Angithunyelwanga kwabanye, kuphela ezimvini ezilahlekileyo zendlu yakwa-Israyeli.

baze bamangala abantu bebona izimungulu zikhuluma , izilima zisindile , izinyonga zihamba, izimpumputhe zibona ; bamdumisa uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli.

Wathi kubo uJesu : Ngiqinisile ngithi kini : Nina eningilandeleyo , ngokuphindukuzalwa lapho iNdodana yomuntu isihlezi esihl alweni senkazimulo yayo , nani niyakuhlala ezihlalweni zobukhosi eziyishumi nambili, nahlulele izizwe eziyishumi nambili zakwa-Israyeli.

Wasindisa abanye , angezisindise yena ; uyinkosi yakwa -Israyeli, akehle manje esiphambanweni, sikholwe nguye.

Khona kwagcwaliseka okwashiwo ngomprofethi uJeremiya ukuthi: Bathatha izinhlamvu zesiliva ezingamashumi amathathu , inani lowamiselwa inani onani lakhe lamiswa ngamadodana ka-Israyeli;

Vuka uthab athe umntwana nonina , uye ezweni lakwa -Israyeli; ngokuba sebefile ababezingela ukuphila komntwana.

Wasuka-ke, wathabatha umntwana nonina, wafika ezweni lakwa-Israyeli.

Nawe Betlehema, lizwe lakwaJuda, kawusiye omncane nakanye kubabusi bakwaJuda, ngokuba kuyakuvela kuwe umbus i oyakwalusa isizwe sami u - Israyeli.

UJesu ekuzwa lokho wamangala , wathi kwabamlandelayo : Ngiqinisile ngithi kini : Angizange ngifumane kwa -Israyeli ukukholwa okungaka kumuntu.

Idemoni selikhishiwe , isimungulu sakhuluma . Izixuku zamangala , zathi: Akuzange kubonwe okunje kwa-Israyeli.

Amazwi ka -Amose owayephakathi kwabelusi baseThekhowa, owabonayo ngo-Israyeli emihleni ka -Uziya, inkosi yakwaJuda , nasemihleni kaJerobowamu indodana kaJowashi, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, iminyaka emibili ngaphambi kokuzamazama komhlaba.

Ngavusa kumadodana en u abaprofeth i nasezinsizweni zenu amaNaziri . Akunjalo, nina bantwana bakwa-Israyeli, na? usho uJehova.

Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Ngenxa yeziphambeko ezintathu zakwa -Israyeli, yebo, ngenxa yezine, angiyikuguquka, ngokuba bathengisile olungileyo ngesiliva, nompofu ngamabhangqa ezicathulo.

Yizwani leli zwi uJehova alikhulumile ngani bantwana bakwa -Israyeli, ngawo wonke umndeni engawukhuphula ezweni laseGibithe, ngokuthi:

Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Njengalokhu umalusi ophula emlonyeni wengonyama imilenze emibili noma inxenye yendlebe , kanjalo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bayakophulwa , abahlala eSamariya ezingosini zezihlal o naphezu kwezingubo zikasilika zemibhede.

Ngokuba mhla ngiyakumhambela u -Israyeli ngeziphambeko zakhe , ngiyakuhambela nama -altare aseBethele , kunqunywe izimpondo ze -altare, ziwe phansi.

Ngalokho ngiyakwenze njal o kuwe Israyeli; njengokuba ngiyakwenza lokhu kuwe, zilungiselele ukuhlangana noNkulunkulu wakho, Israyeli.

Niyakuphuma emifantwini, kube yilowo nalowo ngoqondene naye, nilahlwe eHermoni, usho uJehova. U-Israyeli akafundi

nishise umnikelo wokubonga ngokuvutshelweyo , nimemezele iminikelo yesihle, niyizwakalise, ngokuba nithanda kanjalo , bantwana bakwa-Israyeli, isho iNkosi uJehova.

Zwanini leli zwi engiliphakamisa phezu kwenu libe yisililo ngendlu ka - Israyeli.

Iwile intombi yakwa -Israyeli, ayisayikuvuka; iphonsiwe phansi , akakho ongayivusa.

Naletha kimi imihlatshelo neminikelo yempuphu ehlan e iminyaka engamashumi amane, nina ndlu ka-Israyeli, na?

Ngokuba isho kanje iNkosi uJehova , ithi: Umuzi owaphuma uyinkulungwane uyakushiya ikhulu , nowaphuma uyikhulu uyakushiya ishumi kuyo indlu yakwa-Israyeli.

Ngokuba usho kanje uJehova kuyo indlu yakwa-Israyeli, uthi: Ngifuneni, niphile.

Wo kwabazinzileyo eSiyoni , nabalondekile entabeni yaseSamariya , abaqhamileyo besokuqala sezizwe, efika kubo indlu yakwa-Israyeli!

Ngokuba bhekani , ngiyakunivusela isizw e nina ndlu ka -Israyeli, usho uJehova uNkulunkulu Sebawoti ; bayakunicindezela kusukela ekuyeni eHamati kuze kube semfuleni wase-Araba.

U-Amasiya umpristi waseBethele wayesethumela kuJerobowamu inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, wathi: U-Amose ukwenzele ugobe phakathi kwendlu yakwa - Israyeli; izwe alinakuthwala onke amazwi akhe.

Ngokuba u-Amose ushilo kanje, wathi: UJerobowamu uyakufa ngenkemba, u-Israyeli athunjwe nokuthunjwa ezweni lakhe.

Kepha uJehova wangisusa ekulandeleni umhlambi ; uJehova wathi kimi : Hamba uprofethe kubantu bami u-Israyeli.

Manje yizwa izwi likaJehova lokuthi: Wena uthi: Ungaprofethi ngo-Israyeli, ungaconsisi izwi lakho phezu kwendlu ka-Isaka.

Ngalokho usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Umkakho uyakufeba emzini , namadodana akho namadodakazi akho ayakuwa ngenkemba, nezwe liyakudatshulwa ngentambo; wena uyakufela ezweni elingcolileyo , u-Israyeli athunjwe nokuthunjwa ezweni lakhe.

UJehova wathi kimi : Amose, ubonani na ? Ngathi: Intambo yomthofu wokumisa. Yayisithi iNkosi : Bhekani, ngiyakubeka intambo yomthofu wokumisa phakathi kwabantu bami u-Israyeli; angisayikubadlula.

Izindawo eziphakemeyo zika -Isaka ziyakuchithwa , nezindlu ezingcwele zakwa-Israyeli ziyakuqothulwa, ngivukele indlu kaJerobowamu ngenkemba. O-Amasiya no-Amose

Yathi: Amose, ubonani na ? Ngathi: Iqoma lezithelo zasehlobo . Wayesethi uJehova kimi : Ukuphela sekufikile kubantu bami u-Israyeli; angisayikumdlula.

Zonke izoni zabantu bami ziyakufa ngenkemba , zona ezithi : Okubi akuyikusondela kithina, kusehlele. Ukubuyiswa kuka-Israyeli

Ngiyakubuyisa ukuthunjwa kwabantu bami u-Israyeli, bakhe imizi echithekileyo, bahlale kuyo ; bayakutshala izivi ni, baphuze iwayini lazo ; bayakwenza nezivande, badle izithelo zazo.

Aninjengabantwana bakwaKushe kimi , nina bantwana bakwa -Israyeli, na? usho uJehova . Angikhuphulanga u -Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe , namaFilisti eKafitori, nama-Aramu eKhiri, na? Insali

Ngokuba bheka, ngiyakuyaleza, ngizulazulise indlu yakwa-Israyeli phakathi kwabo bonk e abezizwe , njengalokhu kuhlungwa ngesihlungo , kepha akuyikuwela nembewu eyodwa emhlabathini.

Kepha uJehova wayenza lukhuni inhliziyo kaFaro , kabavumelanga abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba bahambe. Inhlupheko yesishiyagalolunye: ubumnyama

Ababonananga; akusukanga muntu endaweni yakhe izinsuku zaze zaba ntathu; kepha kubo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli kwakukhona ukukhanya emakhaya abo.

OMose no -Aroni bazenza zonke lezi zimangaliso ebusweni bukaFaro; uJehova wayenza lukhuni inh liziyo kaFaro , kabavumelanga abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuphuma ezweni lakhe.

Kepha kub o bonke abantwana bakwa -Israyeli akuyikubakho nanja eyakugwavumela umuntu nenkomo, ukuze nazi ukuthi uJehova uyahlukanisa iGibithe no-Israyeli.

Izinsuku eziyisikhombisa niyakudla isinkwa esingenamvubelo ; yebo, ngosuku lokuqala noyikhipha imvubelo ezindlini zenu, ngokuba bonke abadla okuvutshelweyo, kusukela osukwini lokuqa la kuze kufike usuku lwesikhombisa, labo bantu bayakunqunywa kwa-Israyeli.

Izinsuku eziyisikhombisa akuyikutho lakala mvubelo ezindlini zenu , ngokuba yilowo nalowo odlayo okuvutshelweyo yena uyakunqunywa ebandleni lakwa-Israyeli, noma engumfokazi noma engowokuzalwa ezweni.

UMose wayesebiza amalunga akwa -Israyeli, wathi kuwo : Hambani nizithathele amawundlu ngokwemindeni yenu, nihlabe iphasika.

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

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli basuka , benze njalo ; njengalokho uJehova ebayalile oMose no-Aroni, benze njalo-ke. Amazibulo abaseGibithe ayabulawa

Khulumani kuyo inhlangano yonke yakwa-Israyeli, nithi: Ngolweshumi lwale nyanga yilowo nalowo makazithathele iwundlu ngokwezindlu zawoyise, kube yiwundlu ngendlu;

Wababiza oMose no-Aroni ebusuku, wathi: Vukani niphume kubantu bami, nina nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, nihambe niyokhonza uJehova, njengalokho nishilo.

Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli benza -ke njeng ezwi likaMose ; bacela kwabaseGibithe izinto zesiliva, nezinto zegolide, nezingubo.

UJehova wabenzela abantu umusa emehlweni abaseGibithe, babapha lokho abakucelayo. Babaphundla abaseGibithe. Abakwa-Israyeli basuka eGibithe

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bas uka eRamsesi , bafika eSukoti , kungathi abantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisithupha behamba phansi , bengamadoda ngaphandle kwabantwana.

Ukuhlala kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli abakuhlalayo eGibithe kwakuyiminyaka engamakhulu amane namashumi amathathu.

Kungubusuku obuzakugcinelwa uJehova ngokubakhipha kwakhe ezweni laseGibithe, ngubusuku bukaJehova obuzakugc inwa yibo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ezizukulwaneni zabo. Umthetho wephasika

Ibandla lonke lakwa-Israyeli liyakukugcina lokhu.

Benza kanjalo bonke abantwana bakwa -Israyeli; njengalokho ebayal ile oMose no-Aroni, benze njalo-ke.

Kwathi ngalona lolo suku uJehova wakhipha abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe ngamabandla abo.

niyakuligcina kuze kube sosukwini lweshumi nane l waleyo nyanga; ibandla lonke lenhlangano yakwa-Israyeli liyakulihlaba ngakusihlwa.

Kuyakuba luphawu esandleni sakho nesikhumbuzo phakathi kwamehlo akho, ngokuba ngesandla esinamandla uJehova wasikhipha eGibithe. Ukuhamba kwabakwa-Israyeli ukuya eLwandle Olubomvu

Kepha uNkulunkulu wabagwegwisa abantu ngendlela yasehlane ngaseLwandle Olubomvu ; abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bakhuphuka ezweni laseGibithe behlomile.

UMose wathatha amathambo kaJosefa , wahamba nawo , ngokuba wayebafungisile nokubafungisa abakwa -Israyeli, ethi: Impela uNkulunkulu uyakunihambela nokunihambela , nikhuphule lapha amathambo ami kanye nani.

Ngahlukanisele onke amazibulo , konke okuvula isizalo phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, kubantu nasezinkomeni; kungokwami.

UFaro esesondela , abantwana bakwa -Israyeli baphakamisa amehlo abo ; bheka, abaseGibithe babebalandela; base besaba kakhulu; abantwana bakwa- Israyeli bakhala kuJehova.

UJehova wayesethi kuMose: Ukhalelani kimi na? Yisho kubantwana bakwa- Israyeli ukuba bahambe.

Phakamisa wena induku yakho , welule isandla sakho phezu kolwandle , ulwahlukanise; abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bazakuhamba phakathi kolwandle emhlabathini owomileyo.

Ingelosi kaNkulunkulu eyayihambile phambi kwempi ka -Israyeli yasuka yahamba emva kwabo , nensika yefu yasuka phambi kwabo , yema emva kwabo.

Yisho kwabakwa -Israyeli ukuba babuyele emuva , bamise ngaphambi kwePhi Hahiroti , ngaphakathi kweMigidoli nolwandle , phambi kweBali Sefoni; anomisa ngaselwandle, nibhekane nalo.

Yafika phakathi kwempi yaseGibithe nempi yakwa-Israyeli; kwakukhona ifu nobumnyama, noma ikhanya ebusuku , ukuze izimpi zingakwazi ukusondelana ubusuku bonke.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bangena phakathi kolwandle emhlabathini owomileyo; amanzi aba lugange kubo ngakwesokunene nangakwesokhohlo.

Wawisa amasondo ezinqola ukuba bahambise kalukhuni , baze bathi abaseGibithe: Masibaleke ebusweni buka -Israyeli, ngokuba uJehova uyabalwela emelene nabaseGibithe.

Kepha abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bahamba emhlabathini owomileyo phakathi kolwandle ; amanzi aba lugange kubo ngakwesokunene nangakwesokhohlo.

UFaro uyakuthi ngabantwana bakwa -Israyeli: Badidekile ezweni , ihlane libavalele.

Kanjalo uJehova wasindisa u -Israyeli esandleni sabaseGibithe ; u-Israyeli wababona abaseGibithe befile ogwini lolwandle.

U-Israyeli wabona umsebenzi omkhulu uJehova awenzile phezu kwabaseGibithe; abantu base bemesaba uJehova , bakholwa nguJehova nenceku yakhe uMose.

Inkosi yaseGibithe yabikelwa ukuthi abantu sebebalekile ; inhliziyo kaFaro neyezinceku zakh e yabaguqukela abantu, bathi: Yini lokhu esikwenzileyo , sabavumela abakwa-Israyeli ukuba bahambe, bangasikhonzi, na?

UJehova wayenza lukhuni inhliziyo kaFaro inkosi yaseGibithe ; waxosha abakwa-Israyeli; ngokuba abantwana bakwa -Israyeli baphuma ngesandla esiphakamileyo.

Base behlabelela uMose nabantwana bakwa -Israyeli leli gama , bekhuluma bethi: Ngizakuhlabelela kuJehova , ngokuba uphakeme kakhulu ; ihhashi nenkweli yalo ukuphonse elwandle.

Ngokuba amahhashi kaFaro angena elwandle kanye nezinqola zakhe nabamahhashi bakhe , uJehova wabuyisela amanzi olwandle phezu kwabo ; kepha abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bahamba emhlabathini owomileyo ngaphakathi kolwandle.

UMose wayesebahola abakwa -Israyeli besuka eLwandle Olubomvu , baya ehlane laseShuri; bahamba ehlane izinsuku ezintathu bengafumani manzi.

wathi: Uma u lalela nokulalela izwi likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho , ukwenze okulungile emehlweni akhe , ulalele imiyalo yakhe , ugcine izimiso zakhe zonke , angiyikubeka phezu kwakho nasinye salezo zifo engizibeke phezu kwabaseGibithe, ngokuba nginguJehova okuphilisayo. Ukufika kwabakwa-Israyeli e-Elimi

Basuka e -Elimi; ibandla lonke labantwana bakwa -Israyeli lafika ehlane laseSini eliphakathi kwe -Elimi neSinayi ngosuku lweshumi nanhlanu lwenyanga yesibili emva kokuphuma ezweni laseGibithe.

Kwathi u -Aroni esakhuluma kuyo yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa - Israyeli, babheka ngasehlane ; bheka, inkazimulo kaJehova yabonakala efwini.

Ngizwile izinkonono zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli; khuluma kubo , uthi: Ngakusihlwa niyakudla inyama , kusasa nisuthe isinkwa , nize nazi ukuthi nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu.

Bakubona abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, bathi omunye komunye : Yini le ? ngokuba babengazi ukuthi kuyini . UMose wathi kubo : Kuyisinkwa uJehova aninike sona ukuba nisidle.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli benze njalo : abanye babutha okuningi abanye okuyingcosana.

Lonke ibandla labantwana bakwa -Israyeli lakhonona ngoMose nango -Aroni ehlane.

Abantwana bakw a-Israyeli bathi kubo : Sengathi nga safa ngesandla sikaJehova ezweni laseGibithe , lapho sasihlezi ngasemakhanzini enyama , sidla isinkwa sisutha, ngokuba nisiphumisele kuleli hlane ukuyobulala lonke leli bandla ngendlala. Abantu basuthiswa ngezigwaca nangemana*

Indlu yakwa -Israyeli yaqamba igama lakho ngokuthi imana ; kwakunjengembewu yekoriyanderi , kumhlophe; kwezwakala emlonyeni kungathi ngamaqebelengwane anezinyosi.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli badla imana iminyaka engamashumi amane , baze bafika ezweni elakhiweyo ; badla imana , baze bafika emikhawulweni yezwe laseKhanani.

OMose no-Aroni bathi kubo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli: Ngakusihlwa niyakwazi ukuthi uJehova unikhiphile ezweni laseGibithe.

UMose wathi ku -Aroni: Yisho kuyo yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa - Israyeli ukuthi : S ondelani phambi kukaJehova , ngokuba uzwile izinkonono zenu.

Ibandla lonke labantwana bakwa -Israyeli lasuka ehlane laseSini , bahamba ngamabanga njengesiyalo sikaJehova, bamisa eRefidimi; kwakungekho manzi okuba abantu baphuze.

Kwathi uMose esephakamisile isandla sakhe , u-Israyeli wahlula, kepha nxa esehlisa, u-Amaleki wahlula.

UJehova wathi kuMose: Dlulela phambi kwabantu, uthathe amalunga akwa- Israyeli; nenduku yakho owashaya ngayo umfula , yiphathe ngesandla sakho, uhambe.

Bheka, ngiyakuma phambi kwakho edwaleni laseHorebe ; uzakushaya itshe, kuphume amanzi kulo , abantu baphuze . Wenze njalo uMose emehlweni amalunga akwa-Israyeli.

Waqamba igama laleyo ndawo ngokuthi iMasa neMeriba ngenxa yokuphikisana k wabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, nangokuba bemlinga uJehova , bethi: Ukhona yini uJehova phakathi kwethu noma qha? Ukulwa no-Amaleki

Kwase kufika u-Amaleki, walwa no-Israyeli eRefidimi.

UJetiro umpristi wakwaMidiyani , umukhwe kaMos e, wezwa konke uNkulunkulu abenzele khona oMose no -Israyeli abantu bakhe , ukuthi uJehova wayemkhiphile u-Israyeli eGibithe.

UJetiro umukhwe kaMose wamthathela uNkulunkulu umnikelo wokushiswa nemihlatshelo; weza u -Aroni kanye nawo onke amalunga akwa -Israyeli ukuyokudla nomukhwe kaMose phambi kukaNkulunkulu. Abahluleli bamiswa kwa-Israyeli

UMose wakhetha amadoda an amandla phakathi kuka -Israyeli wonke , wawabeka aba yizinhloko phezu kwabantu , izinduna zezinkulungwane , nezinduma zamakhulu , nezinduna zamashumi ayisihlanu , nezinduna zamashumi.

UMose wayesemlandisa umukh we wakhe konke uJehova abekwenzile kuFaro nakubo abaseGibithe ngenxa ka -Israyeli, konke ukushikashikeka okwabehlela endleleni, nokuthi uJehova wabophula.

UJetiro wathokoza ngakho konke okuhle uJehova akwenzile ku -Israyeli, ebophulile esandleni sabaseGibithe.

Ngenyanga yesithathu emva kokuphuma kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe, ngalona lolo suku, bafika ehlane laseSinayi.

Sebesukile eRefidimi , befike ehlane laseSinayi , bamisa ehlane ; u-Israyeli wahlala khona phambi kwentaba.

UMose wakhuphukela kuNkulunkulu; uJehova esentabeni wamemeza kuye , wathi: Yisho kuyo indlu kaJakobe, ubatshele abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi:

nibe ngumbuso wabapristi kimi , nesizwe esingcwele . Yilawo mazwi ozakuwakhuluma kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Lawa angamagama amadodana ka-Israyeli afika eGibithe noJakobe ; yileyo naleyo yafika nomuzi wayo:

Kepha ngokubahlupha kwazo kwaba yikhona banda , basabalala; baba novalo ngabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

AbaseGibithe babakhonzisa abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ngamandla.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bazala , bachuma, banda, baba baningi ; izwe lagcwala bona. Abakwa-Israyeli baphenduka izigqila

Yathi kubantu bayo : Bhekani, abantu babantwana bakwa -Israyeli baningi , futhi banamandla kunathi;

UJehova wayesethi kuMose : Yisho kanje kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli, uthi: Nibonile nani uqobo ukuthi ngikhulumile kini ngisezulwini.

Wathi kuMose: Khuphukela kuJehova, wena no-Aroni, noNadabi, no-Abihu, namalunga angamashumi ayisikhombisa akwa-Israyeli, nikhuleke nikude.

Bambona uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli; phansi kwezinyawo zakhe kwakungathi kugandayiwe ngamatshe amasafire, kungathi yizulu uqobo ngokucweba.

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

Ukubonakala kwenkazimulo kaJehova kwakunjengomlilo oqedayo esiqongweni sentaba emehlweni abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

UMose wabhala onke amazwi kaJehova , wavuka ekuseni ngakusasa , walakha i -altare phansi kwentaba , nezinsika eziyishumi nambili njengokwezizwe eziyishumi nambili zakwa-Israyeli.

Wathuma izinsizwa zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, zanikela ngeminikelo yokushiswa, zahlabela uJehova imihlatshelo yokuthula yezinkunzi.

Khona bakhuphuka oMose , no-Aroni, noNadabi, no-Abihu, namalunga angamashumi ayisikhombisa akwa-Israyeli.

Yisho kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli ukuba bangithabathele umnikelo ; kubo bonke abantu abanhliziyo zabo zivuma anothabatha umnikelo wami.

Ngiyakuhlangana nawe khona , ngikhulume nawe , ngiphezu kwesihlalo somusa emkhathini wamakherubi amabili aphezu komphongolo wobufakazi , ngakho konke engiyakukuyala ngakho ukuba ubatshele abantwana bakwa - Israyeli. Itafula lesinkwa sokubukwa

Wobayala abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ukuba balethe kuwe amafutha eminqumo agxotshelwe ukukhanyisa ukuba izibani zivuthe njalonjalo.

Etendeni lokuhlangana ngaphandle kwesihenqo esiphambi kobufakazi u - Aroni namadodana akhe bayakuziphath a kwasekuhlweni kuze kuse phambi kukaJehova; kuyakuba yisimiso sabantwana bakwa -Israyeli kuze kube phakade ezizukulwaneni zabo.

Sondeza kuwe u -Aroni umfowenu namadodana akhe phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba bangikhonze esikhundleni sobupristi, o- Aroni, noNadabi, no-Abihu, no-Eleyazare, no-Itamari, amadodana ka-Aroni.

Ngomsebenzi womqophi ematsheni , njengokuqoshwa kwendandatho , woqopha amatshe omabili njengokwamagama abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, uwafake azungezwe yizisekelo zegolide.

Wobeka amatshe omabili ezizibeni zombili zengubo yamahlombe , abe ngamatshe esikhumbuzo sabantwana bakwa -Israyeli; u-Aroni uyakuphatha amagama abo emahlombe akhe omabili phambi kukaJehova kube yisikhumbuzo.

Amatshe ayakuba njengamagama abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, abe yishumi nambili njengamagama abo ; njengokuqoshwa kwendandatho yilelo nalelo liyakuba negama lesinye sezizwe eziyishumi nambili.

U-Aroni uyakuphatha amagama abantwana bakwa -Israyeli esihlangwini sesifuba sokwahlul ela phezu kwenhliziyo yakhe , nxa engena endaweni engcwele, kube yisikhumbuzo phambi kukaJehova njalo.

Ufake esihlangwini sesifuba sokwahlulela i-Urimi neThumimi, ahlale phezu kwenhliziyo ka -Aroni, nxa engena phambi kukaJehova ; u-Aroni athwale ukwahlulelwa kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli phezu kwenhliziyo yakhe phambi kukaJehova njalo.

Uyakuba sebunzini lika -Aroni, u-Aroni athwale ububi bezinto ezingcwele , abantwana bakwa-Israyeli abayakuzingcwelisa, zibe yizipho zabo ezingcwele; uyakuba sebunzini lakhe njalo ukuba bamukeleke ebusweni bukaJehova.

Wothatha amatshe amabili amashohamu , uqophe kuwo amagama abantwana bakwa-Israyeli,

kuyakuba ngokuka-Aroni nokwamadodana akhe, kube yimfanelo ephakade kwabakwa-Israyeli, ngokuba kungum nikelo wokuphakanyiswa ; koba ngumnikelo wokuphakanyiswa wabantwana bakwa -Israyeli womhlatshelo weminikelo yabo yokuthula, umnikelo wabo wokuphakanyiswa kuJehova.

Lapho ngiy akuhlangana nabantwana bakwa -Israyeli; liyakungcweliswa yinkazimulo yami.

Ngiyakuhlala phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo.

Kwathi sekudlulile izinsuku eziningi , inkosi yaseGibithe yafa ; abakwa- Israyeli babubula ngenxa yobugqila , bakhala; ukukhala kwabo kw enyukela kuNkulunkulu ngobugqila babo.

UNkulunkulu wabona abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, wabanakekela.

Nxa ubala inani labantwana bakwa -Israyeli ngokwalabo ababalwayo , yilowo nalowo kubo makathele kuJehova ihlawulo lomphefumulo wakhe , lapho ubabalayo, ukuba kungabikho sifo phakathi kwabo, nxa ubabala.

Wothabatha imali yokubuyisana kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli, uyimisele inkonzo yetende lokuhlangana, ibe yisikhumbuzo sabantwana bakwa-Israyeli phambi kukaJehova, ukuba kwenzelwe ukubuyisana kwemiphefumulo yenu.

Ukhulume kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli, uthi: Lokhu kuyakuba kimi amafutha angcwele okugcoba ezizukulwaneni zenu.

Yisho kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli, uthi: Anogcina amasabatha , ngokuba aluphawu phakathi kwami nani ezizukulwaneni zenu ukuba nazi ukuthi nginguJehova oningcwelisayo.

Ngalokho abakwa-Israyeli bayakuligcina isabatha, balilonde ezizukulwaneni zabo libe yisivumelwano esiphakade.

Liluphawu phakathi kwami nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli kuze kube phakade, ngokuba ngezinsuku eziyisithupha uJehova walenza izul u nomhlaba, kepha ngosuku lwesikhombisa waphumula, waqabuleka.

Wawamukela ezandleni zabo , wawabumba ngengwedo , wawenza aba yithole elibu njiweyo, bathi: Nampa onkulunkulu bakho , Israyeli, abakukhuphula ezweni laseGibithe.

baphambukile masinyane endleleni engabayala ngayo . Bazenzele ithole elibunjiweyo, balikhonza, balihlabela, bathi: Nampa onkulunkulu bakho , Israyeli, abakukhuphula ezweni laseGibithe.

UJehova wayesethi kuMose : Yisho kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi: Ningabantu abantamo ilukhuni ; uma ngikhuphuka ngiphakathi kwenu nangokuphazima kweso nje , ngizakuniqeda. Ngalokho khumulani manje izivunulo zenu, ukuze ngazi ukuthi ngiyakwenzani kini.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bazihlubula izivunulo zabo, kusukela entabeni yaseHorebe. Insika yefu

Kathathu ngomnyaka abesilisa bakho bonke bayaku bonakala phambi kweNkosi uJehova, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.

UJehova wathi kuMose: Zilobele lawa mazwi, ngokuba ngokwalawa mazwi ngenzile isivumelwano nawe nabakwa-Israyeli.

Bathi u -Aroni nabo bonke abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bembona uMose , bheka, isikhumba sobuso bakhe sasikhazimula, besaba ukusondela kuye.

Ngasemuva bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli basondela, wabayala ngakho konke uJehova akukhulume kuye entabeni yaseSinayi.

Kepha uMose esezakungena phambi kukaJehova ukukhuluma naye , walikhumula iveli waze waphuma; waphuma, wakhuluma kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli lokho akuyalelweyo.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli babubona ubuso bukaMose ukuthi isikhumba sobuso bukaMose sasikhazimula; uMose wayesebuye walifaka iveli ebusweni bakhe waze wangena ukuyokhuluma naye.

UMose wabutha yo nke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, wathi kuyo: Yilawa mazwi awayalile uJehova ukuba niwenze.

Yayisisuka yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa -Israyeli ebusweni bukaMose.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bawuletha umnikelo wesihle kuJehova , bonke abesilisa nabesifazane , abanhliziyo yabo ibavusele ukulethela yonke imisebenzi ayale ngayo uJehova ukuba yenziwe ngesandla sikaMose. Ababonisi bemisebenzi

UMose wathi kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli: Bhekani, uJehova ubize ngegama uBesaleli indodana ka-Uri kaHure, owesizwe sakwaJuda;

UMose wakhuluma kuyo yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, wathi: Yile nto ayale ngayo uJehova, ethi:

Bawamukela kuMos e wonke umnikelo , abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ababewulethele umsebenzi wenkonzo yendlu engcwele ukuba wenziwe ngawo. Kepha babesaletha kuye njalo imihla ngemihla ekuseni iminikelo yesihle.

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

Njengakho konke uJehov a amyale ngakho uMose , benze njalo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli wonke umsebenzi.

Balungisa amat she amashohamu ezungezwe yizisekelo zegolide , eqoshwe njengendandatho ngamagama amadodana ka-Israyeli.

Wawabeka ezizibeni zengubo yamahlombe , abe ngamatshe esikhumbuzo sabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.

Ngakho hamba , ngiyakukuthuma kuFaro ukuba ukhiphe eGibithe abantu bami, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

UMose wayesethi kuNkulunkulu : Ngingubani mina ukuba ngiye kuFaro , ngikhiphe eGibithe abantwana bakwa-Israyeli na?

UMose wayesethi kuNkulunkul u: Bheka lapho ngifika kubantwana bakwa - Israyeli, ngithi kubo: U Nkulunkulu wawoyihlo ungithumile kini , bese bethi kimi: Ngubani igama lakhe? ngizakuthini kubo na?

UNkulunkulu wathi kuMose : Nginguye enginguye. Wathi: Uzakusho njalo kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi: UNgikhona ungithumile.

UNkulunkulu wathi futhi kuMose: Uzakusho njalo kubo abantwana bakwa - Israyeli, uthi: UJehova, uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo, uNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama, noNkulunkulu ka -Isaka, noNkulunkulu kaJakobe , ungithumile kini . Yileli eliyigama lami kuze kube phakade , lesi siyisikhumbuzo sami ezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwane.

Hamba ubuthe amalunga akwa-Israyeli, uthi kuwo: UJehova, uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo, uNkulunkulu ka -Abrahama noka -Isaka nokaJakobe , ubonakele kimi, wathi: Nginihambele nokuniha mbela, ngibonile okwenziwa kini eGibithe.

Bayakulalela izwi lakho; uyakufika wena kanye namalunga akwa -Israyeli enkosini yaseGibithe , nithi kuyo : U Jehova, uNkulunkulu wamaHeberu , uhlangene nathi; ake sihambe manje ibanga lezinsuku ezintathu , siye ehlane, sihlabele uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu.

Bheka, manje uku khala kwabantwana bakw a-Israyeli sekufike kimi ; futhi ngikubonile ukucindezela abaseGibithe ababacindezela ngakho.

Njalo lapho ifu lenyuswa etabernakele , abantwana bakwa -Israyeli baqhubekela phambili ezinkambeni zabo zonke.

Ngokuba ifu likaJehova laliphezu kwetabernakele emini , nomlilo wawukulo ebusuku emehlweni ayo yonke indlu yakwa -Israyeli ezinkambeni zabo zonke. ULEVITIKUS

Uyakuthi kuFaro: Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: U-Israyeli uyindodana yami , uyizibulo lami.

OMose no-Aroni baya, babutha onke amalunga abantwana bakwa-Israyeli;

Abantu bakholwa -ke. Sebezwile ukuthi uJehova ubahambele abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, nokuthi ukubonile ukuhlupheka kwabo , base bekhothama , bakhuleka.

Ngasemuva oMose no -Aroni bafika , bathi kuFaro : Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Bavumele abantu bami ukuba bahambe , bangenzele umkhosi ehlane.

Izinduna zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli abazibeke phezu kwabo abaphathi bakaFaro zashaywa , zabuzwa ukuthi : Aniqedanga ngani umsebenzi wenu izolo nanamuhla ukubumba izitini njengaphambili na?

Zase zifika izinduna zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, zakhala kuFaro , zathi: Uziphathelani izinceku zakho kanje na?

Izinduna zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli zabona ukuthi basekuhlup hekeni, lapho kuthiwa : Aniyikunciphisa izitini zenu esilinganisweni semihla ngemihla.

Wathi uFaro : Ngubani uJehova ukuba ngilalele izwi lakhe , ngimyeke u- Israyeli ukub a ahambe na ? Angimazi uJehova , futhi angiyikumvumela u - Israyeli ukuba ahambe.

Ngena ukhulume kuFaro inkosi yaseGibithe ukuba ivumele abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuphuma ezweni lakhe.

UMose wakhuluma ebusweni bukaJehova , wathi: Bheka, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli abangilalelanga ; uFaro angangilalela kanjani , nginezindebe zomlomo ezingasokwanga, na?

UJehova wakhuluma kuMose naku -Aroni ukuba bayale abakwa -Israyeli noFaro inkosi yaseGibithe ukukhipha abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ezweni laseGibithe. Inzalo kaMose neka-Aroni

Laba bayizinhloko zezindlu zawoyise : amadodana kaRubeni izibulo lika - Israyeli: ngoHanoki, noPhalu, noHesironi, noKarmi; yile imindeni kaRubeni.

Yibo labo o-Aroni noMose uJehova athi kubo : Khiphani ezweni laseGibithe abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ngamabandla abo.

Yibo labo ababekhuluma kuFaro inkosi yaseGibithe ukuba akhiphe abantwana bakwa-Israyeli eGibithe; yibo oMose no-Aroni.

Yebo, futhi ngizwile ukububula kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli abenziwe izigqila ngabaseGibithe; ngiyakhumbula isivumelwano sami.

Ngalokho yisho kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli ukuthi : NginguJehova; ngizakunikhipha emithwalweni yabaseGibithe, nginikhulule ebugqileni benu, nginihlenge ngengalo eyeluliweyo nangezahlulelo ezinkulu.

UMose wakhuluma -ke kanjalo kubo abantwana bakwa -Israyeli; kepha abamlalelanga uMose ngenxa yenhliziyo encane nemisebenzi esindayo.

Wena uyakukhuluma konke engikuyala ngakho ; u-Aroni umfowenu uyakukhuluma kuFaro ukuba abavumele abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ukuphuma ezweni lakhe.

Kepha uFaro akayikunilalela ; ngiyakubeka isandla sami phezu kweGibithe , ngikhiphe amabandla ami , isizwe sami , abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, ezweni laseGibithe ngezahlulelo ezinkulu.

AbaseGibithe bayokwazi ukuthi nginguJehova , nxa ngelula isandla sami phezu kweGibithe, ngikhiphe abantwana bakwa-Israyeli phakathi kwabo.

Ezweni laseGosheni kuphela, lapho babe khona abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, kwakungawi sichotho.

Inhliziyo kaFaro yayilukhuni , kabavumelanga abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ukuba bahambe, njengalokho uJehova eshilo ngoMose.

UJehova uyakwahlukanisa imf uyo yakwa -Israyeli nemfuyo yaseGibithe , kungafi lutho kukho konke okwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Wakwenza-ke lokho uJehova ngangomuso ; yafa yonke imfuyo yaseGibithe , kepha emfuyweni yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli akwafa neyodwa.

UFaro wathumela ; bheka, emfuyweni yakwa -Israyeli akufanga neyodwa; kepha inhliziyo kaFaro yayilukhuni, kabavumelanga abantu ukuba bahambe. Inhlupheko yesithupha: amathumba

U-Ezra esakhuleka , evuma izono ngokukhala , eziwise phansi phambi kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, kwabuthana kuye kuvela ku-Israyeli ibandla elikhulu kakhulu labesilisa nabesifazane nabantwana , ngokuba abantu bakhala ngokukhala okukhulu.

U-Ezra, umpristi, wasukuma, wathi kubo : Niphambukile nithathe abesifazane babezizwe ukwandisa icala lakwa-Israyeli.

UShekaniya, indodana ka Jehiyeli, enye yamadodana ka -Elamu, wathatha wathi ku -Ezra: Siphambukile kuNkulunkulu wethu , sithathe abesifazane babezizwe kubantu bezwe. Nokho lisekhona ithemba ku-Israyeli ngale nto.

Ku-Israyeli: Kumadodana kaPharoshi : ngoRamiya, no-Iziya, noMalikhiya, noMijamini, no-Eleyazare, noMalikhiya, noBenaya.

Wayesevuka u-Ezra, wafungisa izikhulu zabapristi, namaLevi, naye wonke u- Israyeli ukuba benze ngokwaleli zwi. Bafunga-ke.

Noma ngumuphi phakathi kwenu kubo bonke abant u bakhe, uNkulunkulu wakhe makabe naye , akhuphukele eJerusalema lakwaJuda , akhe indlu kaJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, yena onguNkulunkulu waseJerusalema.

bafika noZerubabele , noJeshuwa, noNehemiya, noSeraya, noRehelaya, noMoridekayi, noBilishani, noMisipari, noBigivayi, noRehumi, noBahana. Umumo wamadoda abantu bakwa-Israyeli nanku:

Nampa abakhuphuka eTheli Mela , naseTheli Harisha , naseKherubi, nase- Adani, nase-Imeri, kepha babengenakusho izindlu zawoyise nozalo lwabo ukuba babengabakwa-Israyeli yini:

Base behlala abapristi, namaLevi, nabanye abantu abathile , nabahlabeleli, nabalindisango, namaNethini emizini yabo , bonke abakwa -Israyeli emizini yabo.

Lapho isisondela inyanga yesikhombisa , abantwana bakwa -Israyeli besemizini, abantu babuthana eJerusalema njengomuntu munye.

Lapho abakhi sebebeka isisekelo sethempeli likaJehova , bamisa abapristi begqokile benamacilongo kanye namaLevi , amadodana ka -Asafa, enamasimbali ukuba badumise uJehova njengehlelo likaDavide inkosi yakwa- Israyeli.

Baphendulana ngokumdumisa nangokumbonga uJehova , bathi: Ngokuba muhle, ngokuba umusa wakhe umi phakade phezu kuka -Israyeli. Bonke abantu bakhamuluka ngokukhamuluka okukhulu ekumdumiseni kwabo uJehova, ngokuba isisekelo sendlu kaJehova sase sibekiwe.

Kwase kusuka uJeshuwa indodana kaJosadaki , nabafowabo abapristi , noZerubabele indodana kaSheyalitiyeli , nabafowabo, bakha i -altare likaNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli ukuba banikele ngeminikelo yokushiswa phezu kwalo njengokulotshiweyo emthethweni kaMose umuntu kaNkulunkulu.

Kwathi lapho izitha zakwaJuda nezakwaBenjamini sezizwile ukuthi abathunjwa bakhela uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ithempeli,

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.

Abaprofethi, uHagayi umprofethi noZakariya indodana ka -Ido, baprofetha kubaJuda ababekwaJuda naseJerusalema ngegama likaNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli owayephezu kwabo.

Babuyisela impendulo kithi , bathi: Thina siyizinceku zikaNkulunkulu wezulu nomhlaba, sakha indlu ekade yakhiwa sekudlule iminyaka eminingi, eyakhiwa yinkosi enkulu yakwa-Israyeli, yaqedwa.

Amalunga abaJuda ayesakha , aba nempumelelo ngokuprofetha kukaHagayi umprofethi noZakariya indodana ka -Ido. Akha, aqeda njengokwesiyalezo sikaNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, nanjengokwesiyalezo sikaKoresi, noDariyu, no-Aritahishashita, inkosi yasePheresiya.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, abapristi namaLevi nabanye abathunjwa , bagcina ukuhlanjululwa kwaleyo ndlu kaNkulunkulu ngokuthokoza.

Banikela ekuhlanjululweni kwaleyo ndlu kaNkulunkulu ngezinkunzi eziyikhulu, nangezinqama ezingamakhulu amabili , nangamawundlu angamakhulu amane, kanye nezimpongo eziyishumi nambili zibe ngumnikelo wokona ngo-Israyeli wonke njengokomumo wezizwe zakwa-Israyeli.

Abantwana ba kwa-Israyeli ababebuyile ekuthunjweni , nabo bonke ababezahlukanisele kubo nokungcola kwabezizwe balelo zwe ukuba bafune uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli badla;

bagubha umkhosi wesinkwa esingenamvubelo izinsuku eziyisikhombisa ngokuthokoza, ngokuba uJehova wayebathokozisile, waguqulela inhliziyo yenkosi yase-Asiriya kubo ukuba kuqiniswe izandla zabo emsebenzini wendlu kaNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.

ngokuba u-Ezra wayebhekise inhliziyo yakhe ukufuna umthetho kaJehova , nokwenza nokufundisa izimiso nezahlulelo kwa-Israyeli.

Lokhu kuyimpinda yencwadi inkosi u-Aritahishashita eyamnika yona u-Ezra umpristi nombhali, umbhali wamazwi emiyalo kaJehova nawezimiso zakhe ku-Israyeli, yokuthi:

Ngikhipha isimemezelo sok uthi bonke abantu bakwa -Israyeli, nabapristi babo, namaLevi embusweni wami, abafuna ukuya eJerusalema, bangahamba nawe,

nokuyisa isiliva negolide inkosi nabeluleki bayo abalinikele ngesihle kuNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ondlu yakhe iseJerusalema,

wehlisela phezu kwami umusa phambi kwenkosi , nabeluleki bayo , naphambi kwezikhulu zonke zenkosi ezingamaqhawe . Mina ngaqiniswa ngokwesandla seNkosi uNkulunkulu wami esasiphezu kwami, ngabutha ku- Israyeli abayizinhloko ukuba bakhuphuke nami.

u-Ezra lo wakhuphuka eBabele; wayengumbhali echwepheshile emthethweni kaMose awunikiweyo nguJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli; inkosi yamnika konke akucelayo ngokwesandla sikaJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe esasiphezu kwakhe.

Kwakhuphuka nabanye abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, nabapristi, namaLevi, nabahlabeleli, nabalindisango, namaNethini, baya eJerusalema ngomnyaka wesikhombisa ka-Aritahishashita inkosi.

Ngesandla esihle sikaNkulunkulu wethu esasiphezu kwethu b asilethela umuntu onengqondo wamadodana kaMaheli indodana kaLevi ka -Israyeli, kanye noSherebiya namadodana akhe nabafowabo , beyishumi nesishiyagalombili,

ngabalinganisela isiliva negolide nezitsha , umnikelo wendlu kaNkulunkulu wethu, okwakunikelwe ngawo yinkosi nabeluleki bayo, nezikhulu zayo, naye wonke u-Israyeli owayelapho;

Lindani, nikugcine, nize nikulinganise ngaphambi kwezikhulu zabapristi nezamaLevi nezikhulu zawoyise bakwa -Israyeli eJerusal ema emakamelweni endlu kaJehova.

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

Ngalokho zilobeleni leli hubo , ulifundise abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, ulibeke emilonyeni yabo ukuba leli hubo libe ngufakazi wami ukumelana nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

UMose wayeseloba leli hubo ngalona lolo suku , walifundisa abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Wamyala uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni , wathi: Qina, ume isibindi, ngokuba wena uyakubangenisa abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ezweni engalifungela bona ; mina ngiyakuba nawe.

UMose wayesekhuluma ezindlebeni zeban dla lonke lakwa -Israyeli amazwi ehubo lakhe, aze aphela.

UMose wambiza uJoshuwa , wathi kuye emehlweni abantu bonke bakwa - Israyeli: Qina, ume isibindi, ngokuba uyakuhamba nalaba bantu, uye ezweni uJehova afunga koyise ukubanika lona ; wena uyakwenza ukuba balidle ifa lalo.

UMose waloba lowo mthetho, wabanika wona abapristi, amadodana kaLevi, ababethwala umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova namalunga onke akwa- Israyeli.

UMose eseqedile ukukhu luma onke lawa mazwi kubo bonke abakwa - Israyeli

Khuphukela entabeni yase -Abarimi, intaba yaseNebo esezweni lakwaMowabi, emalungana neJeriko, ulibheke izwe laseKhanani engibanika lona abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba libe yifa labo,

ngokuba naphambuka kimi phakathi kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli ngasemanzini aseMeriba laseKadeshi ehlane laseSi ni, lokhu ningangingcwelisanga phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Uyakulibona izwe phambi kwakho , kepha awuyikungena khona , izwe engibanika lona abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Lapho oPhezukonke wazinika izizwe ifa lazo, lapho wahlukanisa abantwana babantu, wamisa imikhawulo yezizw e njengokomumo wa bantwana bakwa - Israyeli.

Nasi isibusiso uMose , umuntu kaNkulunkulu , abusisa ngaso abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, engakafi; wathi:

Bafundisa uJakobe izahlulelo zakho , no-Israyeli umthetho wakho ; babeka impepho phambi kwamakhala akho , nomnikelo oshiswa wonke e -altare lakho.

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

U-Israyeli usehlezi e londekile; umthombo kaJakobe wahlukene wodw a ezweni lamabele nelewayini; yebo, amazulu akhe aconsisa amazolo.

Ubusisiwe wena Israyeli ; ngubani ofana nawe , isizwe esisindisiwe nguJehova oyisihlangu sosizo lwakho , oyinkemba yakho ephakanyisiweyo. Izitha zakho ziyakuzithobela wena, unyathele izindawo zabo eziphakemeyo.

Waba yinkosi eJeshuruni , lapho izinhloko zabantu zazibuthene , zonke izizwe zakwa-Israyeli zindawonye.

Akuvelanga ngasemuva kwa -Israyeli umprofethi onjengoMose , owazana noJehova ubuso nobuso

nangesandla sonke esinamandla nangayo yonke ingebhe enkulu akwenza uMose emehlweni abo bonke abakwa-Israyeli.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bamkhalela uMose emathaf eni akwaMowabi izinsuku ezingamashumi amathathu ; zaphela-ke izinsuku zokukhala ekumlileleni uMose.

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

Ngaleso sikhathi nganiyala ngathi : UJehova uNkulunkulu wenu uninikile leli zwe ukuba nilidle ; niyakuwela nihlomile phambi kwabafowenu , abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, nonke eningamadoda anesibindi.

Manje-ke, Israyeli, yizwa izimiso nezahlulelo enginifundisa zona ukuba nizenze, nize niphile, ningene nilidle izwe uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo aninika lona.

Yiwo umthetho uMose awubeka phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli;

yibo ubufakazi , nezimiso, nezahlulelo uMose akukhulumayo kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli ekuphumeni kwabo eGibithe,

ngaphesheya kweJordani esigodini malungana neBeti Peyori ezweni likaSihoni inkosi yama -Amori, owahlala eHeshiboni, owanqotshwa nguMose nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ekuphumeni kwabo eGibithe.

UMose wayesebiza wonke u -Israyeli, wathi kuye : Yizwa, Israyeli, izimiso nezahlulelo engizikhuluma ezindlebeni zakho namuhla ukuba uzifunde , uqaphele ukuzenza.

Yizwa-ke, Israyeli, uqaphele ukukwenza ukub a kube kuhle kuwe , nande ngamandla, njengalokho uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo wakuthembisa khona ezweni elivame ubisi nezinyosi.

Yizwa, Israyeli: uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu, uJehova, munye;

Yizwa, Israyeli: Wena uyakuwela iJordani namuhla , ungene udle izizwe ezinkulu nezinamandla kunawe , imizi emikhulu nebiyelwe kuze kube sezulwini,

Wathi: Igama lakho alisayikuthiwa uJakobe , kepha u -Israyeli, ngokuba ulwile noNkulunkulu nabantu, wanqoba.

Ngalokho abantwana bakwa -Israyeli abawudli umsipha wenqulu osesikhoxeni senyonga kuze kube namuhla , ngokuba wathinta isikhoxo senyonga kaJakobe emsipheni wenqulu.

Wakha khona i-altare, walibiza ngokuthi i-Eli Elohe Israyeli.

Amadodana kaJakobe abuya endle esezwile lokho ; abantu badabuka , bathukuthela kakhulu , ngokuba ubenze ubuwula kwa-Israyeli ngokulala nendodakazi kaJakobe, okungenakwenziwa.

UNkulunkulu wathi kuye : Igama lakho linguJakobe , igama lakho alisayikuthiwa uJakobe ; igama lakho lizakuba ngu -Israyeli, wayeseqamba igama lakhe ngokuthi u-Israyeli.

U-Israyeli wasuka, wamisa itende lakhe ngaphambi kombhoshongo wase - Edere.

Kwathi u -Israyeli esehlala kulelo zwe , uRubeni waya walala noBiliha isancinza sikayise; u-Israyeli wakuzwa lokho. Amadodana kaJakobe nokufa kuka-Isaka Amadodana kaJakobe ayeyishumi nambili.

Lawa angamakhosi ayebusa ezweni lakwa -Edomi, kungakabusi nkosi kwabakwa-Israyeli.

U-Israyeli wathi kuJosefa : Abafowenu abawalusi umhlambi eShekemi na ? Woza, ngiyakukuthuma kubo. Wathi kuye: Ngilapha.

Kepha u -Israyeli wathanda uJosefa kakhulu kunabantwana bakhe bonke , ngokuba wayeyindodana yobuxhegu bakhe ; wamenzela ingubo enemikhono emide.

Ayesefika amadodana ka -Israyeli ukuthenga phakathi kwalabo ab abefika, ngokuba kwakukhona indlala ezweni laseKhanani.

Uyise u -Israyeli waye sethi kubo : Uma kunjalo, yenzani lokhu ; phathani izithelo ezikhethiweyo zezwe emasakeni enu, nimehlisele lowo muntu isipho, ibhalisamu eliyingcosana , nezinyosi eziyingcosana , namakha, nemure, namapisitakiyo, nama-alimondi,

Wayesethi u-Israyeli: Ningenzeleni okubi ngokumtshela lowo muntu ukuthi ukhona omunye umfowenu na?

UJuda wathi ku -Israyeli uyise : Thuma umfana nami , size sisuke , sihambe ukuba siphile, singafi, thina nawe kanye nezingane zethu.

Enze njalo amadodana ka -Israyeli. UJosefa wabapha izinqola njengesiyalo sikaFaro, wabanika nomphako wendlela.

Wathi u -Israyeli: Kwanele; uJosefa indodana yami usekhona ; ngizakuhamba ngimbone ngingakafi.

U-Israyeli wasuka nakho konke okwakhe , wafika eBeri Sheba , wanikela iminikelo kuNkulunkulu kayise u-Isaka.

UNkulunkulu wakhuluma ku-Israyeli ngemibono yasebusuku, wathi: Jakobe, Jakobe! Wathi: Ngilapha.

UJosefa wayesebophela inqola yakhe , wakhuphuka ukumhlangabeza u - Israyeli uyise eGosheni ; wazibonakalisa kuye , wawa entanyeni yakhe , wakhala ngasentanyeni yakhe isikhathi eside.

U-Israyeli wayesethi kuJosefa : Sengingafa, lokhu ngibone ubuso bakho ukuthi usekhona.

UJakobe wayesesuka eBeri Sheba; amadodana ka-Israyeli amthwala uJakobe uyise, nezingane zawo , nawomkawo ezinqoleni abezithumile uFaro zokumthwala.

Lawa angamagama abantwana bakwa-Israyeli abafika eGibithe , uJakobe namadodana akhe: nguRubeni izibulo likaJakobe.

U-Israyeli wahlala ezweni laseGibithe ezweni laseGosheni ; bafuya khona, bazala, banda kakhulu.

Kwase kusondela isikhathi ayesezakufa ngaso u -Israyeli; wayesebiza indodana yakhe uJosefa , wathi kuye : Uma ngifumene umusa emehlweni akho, ake ubeke isandla sakho phansi kwethanga lami , ungenzele umusa neqiniso: ake ungangimbeli eGibithe.

Wayesethi kuye : Funga kimi . Wayesefunga kuye . U-Israyeli wakhothama esihlokweni sombhede.

Kepha amehl o ka -Israyeli ayefiphele ngobudala , engasenakubona; wawasondeza kuye; wawanga, wawagona.

Wayesethi u -Israyeli kuJosefa : Ngangingacabanganga ukuthi ngizakubona ubuso bakho; bheka, uNkulunkulu ungibonise nenzalo yakho.

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

U-Israyeli wayeselula isandla sakhe sokunene , wasibeka ekhanda lika - Efrayimi, kanti ungomncane, nesokhohlo ekhanda likaManase , ephambanisa izandla zakhe, ngokuba uManase wayeyizibulo.

Wayesebabusisa ngalolo suku ngokuthi: Ngawe u-Israyeli uyakubusisa ethi: UNkulunkulu makakwenz e ube njengo-Efrayimi nanjengoManase . Wayesembeka-ke u-Efrayimi ngaphambi kukaManase.

Wayesethi u -Israyeli kuJosefa : Bheka, mina ngiyafa , kepha uNkulunkulu uyakuba nani, anibuyisele ezweni lawoyihlo.

U-Israyeli wabona amadodana kaJosefa, wathi: Ngobani laba na?

UDani uyakuthetha amacala abantu bakhe , njengesinye sezizwe zakwa - Israyeli.

Qoqanani, nizwe, nina madodana kaJakobe, nimlalele u-Israyeli uyihlo.

Makuqalekiswe ulaka lwabo , ngokuba lwalunamandla, nentukuthelo yabo, ngokuba yayinonya ; ngizakubahlukanisa kwaJakobe , ngibasakaze kwa - Israyeli.

UJosefa wayala izinceku zakhe izinyanga ukuba zimgqumise uyise ngemithi; izinyanga zamgqumisa-ke u-Israyeli ngemithi.

UJosefa wayesefungisa amadodana ka-Israyeli, ethi: UNkulunkulu uzakunihambela nokunihambela, nina nikhuphule amathambo ami lapha.

Ngalokho umthetho uba buthakathaka , nokwahlulela akuphumi kuze kube nini, ngokuba omubi uhaqa olungileyo ; ngalokho ukwahlulela kuph uma kuhlanekezelwe. UNkulunkulu uvusela u-Israyeli amaKaledi

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

Zithathele ucwecwe lwensimbi , ulubeke lube ludonga lwensimbi phakathi kwakho nomuzi , uqondise ubuso bakho kuwo , wona uvinjezelwe , uvinjezelwe nguwe . Lokhu kuyakuba yisibonakaliso kuyo indlu yakwa - Israyeli.

Futhi lala ngohlangothi lwakho lwasokhohlo , ubeke ukona kuka -Israyeli phezu kw alo; ngokomumo wezinsuku zokulala kwakho ngalo uyakuthwala ukona kwabo.

Ngokuba ngikunqumele iminyaka yokona kwabo ukuba ibe ngumumo wezinsuku, zingamakhulu amathathu namashumi ayisi shiyagalolunye, bese wuthwala ukona kwendlu yakwa-Israyeli.

Futhi kuzona uyakuthatha, uziphonse phakathi koml ilo, uzishise ngomlilo; kuyakuvela lapho umlilo, ungene endlini yonke yakwa-Israyeli.

Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova , ithi: Shaya ngesandla sakho , udubhuze ngonyawo lwakho, uthi: Maye, ngenxa yazo zonke izinengiso ezimbi zendlu yakwa-Israyeli! Ngokuba bayakuwa ngenkemba, nangendlala, nangesifo.

Ndodana yomuntu , bhekisa ubuso bakho ezintabeni zakwa-Israyeli, uprofethe ngazo, uthi:

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.

Ngiyakubeka izidumbu zabantwana bakwa -Israyeli phambi kwezithombe zabo, ngihlakaze amathambo enu nxazonke zama-altare enu.

Wena ndodana yomuntu , isho kanje iNkosi uJehova kulo izwe lakwa - Israyeli, ithi: Ukuphela! Ukuphela kufikile emagumbini omane ezwe.

Ngangena, ngabona; bheka, zonke izimo zezilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo , nezilwane ezinengekayo , nazo zonke izithombe zendlu ka -Israyeli kudwetshiwe odongeni nxazonke.

Kwakumi phambi kwabo abantu abangamashumi ayisikhombisa bamalunga endlu yakwa -Israyeli, naphakathi kwabo uJahazaniya indodana kaShafani, kwaba yilowo nalowo enomcengezi wakhe womlilo esandleni sakhe, nephunga lefu lempepho lenyuka.

Wayesethi kimi : Ndodana yomuntu , uyabona yini akwenzayo amalunga endlu yakwa -Israyeli ebumnyameni , kube yilelo nalelo ekamelweni lalo lezithombe, na? Ngokuba athi: UJehova akasiboni, uJehova ulishiyile izwe.

Bheka, inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli yayilapho njengokuyibona kwami esigodini.

Wathi kimi : Ndodana yomuntu , uyabona yini abakwenzayo , izinengiso ezinkulu indlu yakwa -Israyeli ezenzayo lapha ukuba ngidede kude nendlu yami engcwele na? Kepha uyakubuye ubone ezinye izinengiso ezinkulu.

Inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli yayenyukile ekherubini eyayiphezu kwalo, yaya embundwini wendlu , wayibiza indoda eyembethe ilineni , eyayinophondo lukayinki womlobi ngasokhalweni lwayo.

Kwathi esabulala , kwasala mina ; ngawa ngobuso , ngakhala ngathi : Maye, Nkosi Jehova ! Uyakubulala yonke insali yakwa -Israyeli ekutheleni kwakho ukufutheka kwakho phezu kweJerusalema na?

Wathi kimi : Ububi bendlu yakwa -Israyeli neyakw aJuda bukhulu kakhulu impela, nezwe ligcwele igazi , nomuzi ugcwele ukuhlanekezela , ngokuba bathi: UJehova ulishiyile izwe, uJehova akakuboni.

U-Israyeli wayengumvini owenabileyo , ngokobuningi bezithelo zakhe wandisa ama-altare akhe; ngokobuhle bezwe lakhe wenza izinsuku ezinhle.

Kanjalo iBethele liyakwenza kini ngenxa yobubi benu obukhulu ; ekuseni inkosi yakwa-Israyeli iyakunqunywa nokunqunywa.

Iyakuyiswa e -Asiriya ibe yisipho kuyo inkosi uJarebi ; u-Efrayimi uyakwamukela ihlazo, u-Israyeli ajabhe ngeziluleko zakhe.

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

Kwasezinsukwini zaseGibeya wonile , Israyeli; bema khona ; impi nabo abobubi ayiyikubafica eGibeya na?

Lapho u -Israyeli esengumntwana ngamthanda , ngayibiza indodana yami iphume eGibithe.

U-Efrayimi ungizungezile ngamanga , nendlu yakwa -Israyeli ngenkohliso ; uJuda usazulazula kuNkulunkulu nakoNgcwele othembekileyo.

Ngingakunikela kanjani , Efrayimi, ngikukhaphele, Israyeli, na? Ngingakwenza kanjani ube njenge -Adima, ngikubeke ufane neSeboyimi , na? Inhliziyo iyaphenduka phakathi kwami, sonke isihawu sami sivusiwe.

UJakobe wabalekela ezweni lase -Aramu, u-Israyeli wakhonzela umfazi , walusa umhlambi ngenxa yomfazi.

UJehova wakhuphula u-Israyeli eGibithe ngomprofe thi, wagcinwa ngomprofethi.

Lapho u-Efrayimi ekhuluma , kwavela ukuthuthume la; wayephakeme kwa - Israyeli, kepha wazitholela icala ngoBali, wafa.

Ngukuchithwa kwakho, Israyeli, ngokuba uphambene nami, usizo lwakho.

Buyela kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho, Israyeli, ngokuba ukhubekile ngobubi bakho.

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

Izwi likaJehova elafika kuHoseya indodana kaBeri ezinsukwini zawo -Uziya, noJothamu, no-Ahazi, noHezekiya, amakhosi akwaJuda , nasezinsukwini zikaJerobowamu indodana kaJowashi, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli.

Nokho umumo wabant wana bakwa -Israyeli uyakuba ngangesihlabathi solwandle esingenakulinganiswa , singenakubalwa; kuyakuthi esikhundleni sokuba kuthiwe kubo : Anisibo abantu bami , kuthiwe kubo: Ningamadodana kaNkulunkulu ophilayo.

Abantwana bakwaJuda nabantwana bakwa -Israyeli bayakubuthana ndawonye, bazimisele inhloko ibe nye , bakhuphuke ezweni , ngokuba luyakuba lukhulu usuku lukaJizreyeli.

UJehova wathi kuye : Qamba igama la yo ngokuthi uJizreyeli , ngokuba kusezakuba yisikhashana ngize ngiphindisele igazi likaJizreyeli phezu kwendlu kaJehu, ngiqede umbuso wendlu ka-Israyeli.

Kuyakuthi ngalolo suku ngaphule umnsalo ka-Israyeli esigodini saseJizreyeli.

Wabuye wakhulelwa, wazala indodakazi. Wayesethi uJehova kuye : Qamba igama layo ngokuthi uLo Ruhama , ngokuba angisayikuyihawukela indlu yakwa-Israyeli ukuba ngibathethelele.

UJehova wathi kimi : Hamba futhi , umthande owesifazane othandwa ngumngane wakhe, eyisiphingikazi, njengalokhu uJehova ethanda abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, noma bephendukela kwabanye onkulunkulu , bethanda izigaxa zezithelo zomvini ezomileyo.

Ngokuba izinsuku eziningi abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bayakuhlala bengenankosi, bengenasikhulu, bengenamhlatshelo, bengenansika, bengenangubo yamahlombe namatherafi.

Ngasemuva abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bayakubuya , bamfune uJehova uNkulunkulu wabo noDavide inkosi yabo , babuyele kuJehova benovalo nakukho okuhle kwakhe ngezinsuku ezizayo.

Yizwani izwi likaJehov a nina bantwana bakwa -Israyeli, ngokuba uJehova unokuphikisana nabakhileyo ezweni , lokhu kungekho qiniso , namusa, nakumazi uNkulunkulu ezweni.

Noma wena Israyeli ufeba, uJuda makangazitholeli icala; ningayi eGiligali, ningenyukeli eBeti Aveni, ningafungi ngokuthi: Kuphila kukaJehova.

Ngokuba u -Israyeli unenkani njengesithole ; uJehova angabelusa njengemvana endaweni ebanzi na?
