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

Walibiza i -altare ngezwi likaJehova , wathi: Altare, altare, usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Bheka, kuzakuzalwa umntwana kuyo indlu kaDavide , nguJosiya igama lakhe ; uyakunikela phezu kwakho ngabapristi bezindawo eziphakemeyo abashisa impepho phezu kwakho, bashise namathambo abantu phezu kwakho.

Esezwile lokho umprofethi obembuyisile endlelni wathi: Ngumuntu kaNkulunkulu lowo owayengalaleli izwi likaJehova ; ngalokho uJehova umnikele kuyo ingonyama , yamdwengula; yambulala njengezwi likaJehova alikhuluma kuye.

Leyo nto yaba yisono kuyo indlu kaJero bowamu ngangokuba inqunywe , ichithwe ebusweni bomhlaba.

Hamba ungene enkosini uDavide , uthi kuyo : Wena nkosi yami , nkosi, awufunganga yini kuyo incekukazi yakho ngokuthi : USolomoni indodana yakho uyakuba yinkosi emva kwami , ahlale esihlalweni sami sobukhosi , na? Pho, kungani ukuba kubuse u-Adoniya na?

Wathi kuyo : Nkosi yami , wafunga uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho kuyo incekukazi yakho ngo kuthi: Ngempela uSolomoni indodana yakho uyakuba yinkosi emva kwami, ahlale esihlalweni sami sobukhosi.

Zase zith i kuyo izinceku zayo : Inkosi yami , inkosi, mayifunelwe intombi esentsha ukuba ime phambi kwenkosi , iyiphathe, ilale ngasesifubeni sayo ukuba inkosi yami, inkosi, ifudumale.

Umprofethi wasondela enkosini yakwa -Israyeli, wathi kuyo : Hamba uziqinise, uqaphele, ubone oyakukwenza, ngokuba emva komnyaka inkosi yama-Aramu iyakwenyuka ukulwa nawe.

Izinceku zenkosi yama -Aramu zathi kuyo : Unkulunkulu wabo ungunkulunkulu wezintaba , ngalokho basahlula ; kepha masilwe nabo ethafeni, impela siyakubahlula.

Wathi kuyo: Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Ngokuba umyekile ukuba aphume esandleni sakho umuntu engangimqalekisile , ukuphila kwakho kuyakuba sesikhundleni sokuphila kwakhe, nabantu bakho babe sesikhundleni sabantu bakhe.

Esefikile enkosini , inkosi yathi kuye : Mikhaya, sihambe silwe neRamoti Gileyadi, noma siliyeke , na? Wathi kuyo: Yenyuka, ube nempumelelo ; uJehova uyakulinikela esandleni senkosi.

Wayesehamba uBati Sheba, waya enkosini uSolomoni ukuba amkhulumele u-Adoniya kuyo. Inkosi yasukuma ukumhlangabeza, yamkhothamela, yahlala esihlalweni sayo sobukhosi , yambekela unina wenkosi isihlalo , wahlala ngakwesokunene sayo.

Wayesethi kuyo : Nginesicelo sinye nje esincane kuwe ; ungangifulatheli. Inkosi yathi kuye: Cela-ke, mame ngokuba angiyikukufulathela.

ogcine nenceku yakho uDavide ubaba lokho owakusho kuyo ; yebo, owakukhuluma ngomlomo wakho ukugcwalisile ngesandla sakho njengokuba kunjalo namuhla.

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.

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

Noma le ndlu iphakeme kangaka , bonke abadlula kuyo bayakumangala, banximfe, bathi: UJehova wenzeleni kanje kuleli zwe nakule ndlu na?

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

Kuyo in xenye yesizwe sakwaManase yizinkulungwane eziyishumi nesishiyagalombili, ezabizwa ngamagama ukuba zize zimbeke uDavide inkosi.

Hamba utshele uDavide inceku yami ukuthi : U sho kanje uJehova , uthi: Awuyikungakhela indlu ukuba ngihlale kuyo,

Wakhipha nabantu ababe phakathi kwawo , wabanquma ngamasaha , nangezibhuqo zensimbi , nangamazembe; wenze njalo uDavide kuyo yonke imizi yabantwana bakwa -Amoni. UDavide nabo bonke abantu babuyela eJerusalema.

UDavide wathi ku -Orinani: Nginike indawo yalesi sibuya ukub a ngakhele uJehova i-altare kuyo: uyakunginika yona ngemali epheleleyo ukuba lesi sifo sinqamuke kubantu.

Ngasemuva uHesironi wangena kuyo indodakazi kaMakiri uyise kaGileyadi; wamthatha eseneminyaka engamashumi ayisithupha; wamzalela uSegubi.

Abafowabo kuyo yonke imindeni ka -Isakare, amaqhawe anamandla , babe yizinkulungwane ezingamashumi ayisishiyagalombili nesikhombisa , bebhalwe bonke ngezizukulwane zabo.

Lokho enakuzwayo kwasekuqaleni , makuhlale kinina . Uma kuhlala kini enakuzwayo kwasekuqaleni, nani niyakuhlala kuyo iNdodana nakuye uYise.

Kepha sazi ukuthi iNdodana kaNkulunkulu isifikile , yasinika ingqondo ukuze simazi oweqiniso ; sikuye oweqiniso , kuyo iNdodana yakhe uJesu Kristu. Yena unguNkulunkulu oqinisileyo nokuphila okuphakade.

Sondelani kuyo , iyitshe eliphilileyo , elinqatshwe ngabantu , kepha kuNkulunkulu likhethekile, liyigugu,

Kuyo iNkosi yaphakade en gabhubhiyo, engenakubonwa, uNkulunkulu yedwa, makube ludumo nenkazimulo kuze kube phakade naphakade. Amen. UPawulu uyala uThimothewu ukuba alwele iqiniso levangeli

Imvelo uqobo lwayo ayinifundisi yini ukuthi uma indoda inezinwele ezinde, kuyihlazo kuyo,

Bobabili bazibonakalisa kulo ikhanda lamaFilisti ; amaFilisti ayesethi : Bhekani, amaHeberu aphuma emigodini acashe kuyo.

Kepha abantu bathatha kuyo impango , izimvu nezinkabi , okuhle kokuqalekisiweyo, ukuba bahlabele uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho eGiligali.

Usuhlalile izinsuku ezintathu ; yehla masinyane , uye kuleyo ndawo owacasha kuyo ngosuku lwesenzo leso, uhlale ngasetsheni lase-Ezeli.

Bheka, namuhla amehlo akho abonile ukuthi uJehova wayekunikele esandleni sami emhumeni ; abanye bathi mangikubulale , kepha ngakuhawukela, ngathi: Angiyikwelulela isandla sami kuyo inkosi yami , ngokuba ingogcotshiweyo kaJehova.

Wathi kubantu bakhe: Makube kude nami , Jehova, ukuba ngenze okunjalo kuyo inkosi yami, ogcotshiweyo kaJehova, ngelulele isandla sami kuye, lokhu engogcotshiweyo kaJehova.

nithi kumfowethu : U kuthula makube kuwe , ukuthula nakube kuyo indlu yakho, ukuthula makube kukho konke onakho.

UDavide wasuka , weza endaweni uSawule amise kuyo ; uDavide wabona indawo uSawule ahlala kuyo , eno-Abineri indodana kaNeri , induna yempi yakhe; uSawule wayelele ezinqoleni, abantu bemise ngakuye nxazonke.

Kepha izikhulu zamaFilisti zamthukuthelela; izikhulu zamaFilisti zathi kuye: Buyisa lowo muntu ukuba abuyele endaweni yakhe om mise kuyo, angehleli nathi empini, funa abe yisitha sethu empini , ngokuba lona ubeyakuyigculisa ngani inkosi yakhe kungengamakhanda alawo madoda na?

Kwafika umuntu kaNkulunkulu ku -Eli, wathi kuye : UJehova usho kanje , uthi: Angithi ngazibonakalisa kuyo indlu kayih lo, beseseGibithe besendlini kaFaro.

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.

USamuweli wakhuluma kuyo yonke indlu ka -Israyeli, wathi: Uma nibuyela kuJehova ngayo yonke inhliziyo yenu, susani kini onkulunkulu babezizwe no- Ashitaroti, nibhekise izinhliziyo zenu kuJehova , nimkhonze yena yedwa ; uyakunophula esandleni samaFilisti.

USawule wayesethi kuyo inceku yakhe : Lihle izwi lakho ; woza sihambe . Base beya emzini lapho lowo muntu kaNkulunkulu wayekhona.

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?

Besehlela ngasekugcineni komuzi , uSamuweli wathi kuSawule: Yisho kuyo inceku ukuba idlule phambi kwethu -- yadlula-ke -- kepha yima wena manje ukuba ngikuzwise izwi likaNkulunkulu.

Sebefikile ezweni laseSufi , uSawule wathi kuyo inceku yakhe eyayinaye : Woza sibuye, funa ubaba aziyeke izimbongolo, enqene ngathi.

Wayesethi uSawule kuyo inceku yakhe : Kepha bheka , uma siya khona , siyakulethani kulowo muntu na ? Ngokuba isinkwa siphelile ezitsheni zethu ; akukho nto esingayiyisa kulowo muntu kaNkulunkulu; sinani, pho, na?

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

Kodwa zonke izizwe zazenzela onkulunkulu bazo , zababeka ezindlini zezindawo eziphakemeyo ezazenziwe ngama Samariya, kwaba yileso naleso sizwe emizini esasihlezi kuyo.

Wasusa izindawo eziphakemeyo , wadiliza izinsika , wanquma o -Ashera, wachitha inyoka yethusi ayeyenzile uMose , ngokuba abantwana bakwa - Israyeli babeshisa impepho kuyo kwaze kwaba ngalezo zinsuku ; yabizwa ngokuthi uNehushitani.

Abakhe kuyo babe namandla amancane , besaba, bajabha; baba njengotshani basendle , nembali notshani obuluhlaza , nokuluhlaza ezimpahleni zezindlu, namabele ahamukile engakakhuli.

Bhekani, ngiyakubeka umoya kuyo , izwe amahemuhemu , ibuyele ezweni lakubo, ngiyiwise ngenkemba ezweni lakubo.

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.

Zathi kuye : Kwakhuphuka umuntu ukuba asihlangabeze, wathi kithi : Hambani, nibuyele enkosini enithumileyo , nithi kuyo: Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Kungokuba kungekho Nkulunkulu kwa -Israyeli ukuba uthume ukubuza kuBali Zebubi unkulunkulu wase-Ekroni na? Ngalokho umbhede okhuphukele kuwo awuyikwehlika kuwo, kepha uyakufa nokufa.

Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Bhekani, ngiyakwehlisela okubi phezu kwale ndawo naphezu kwabakhileyo kuyo, onke amazwi aleyo ncwadi eyifundile inkosi yakwaJuda,

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

ngenxa yokuba inhliziyo yakho yayithambile wazithoba phambi kukaJehova, lapho wezwa lokho engakukhuluma ngale ndawo nangabakhileyo kuyo ukuthi kuyakuba yincithakalo nesiqalekiso, waklebhula izingubo zakho, wakhala phambi kwami, mina ngikuzwile, usho uJehova.

Inkosi yathumela , babuthela kuyo onke amalunga akwaJuda nawaseJerusalema.

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

Kwaphuma omunye , waya endle ukukha imifi no, wafumana intandela yasendle, wabutha kuyo izintangazane ; yagcwala ingubo yakhe ; wafika, waziklabelela ekhanzini lokudla, ngokuba babengazazi.

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

Amadodana abaprofethi athi ku-Elisha: Bheka, indawo esihlezi kuyo phambi kwakho, siminyene kuyo.

Masihambe siye eJordani, sithathe khona, kube yilowo nalowo umshayo ube munye, senzele khona indawo esingahlala kuyo. Wathi: Hambani.

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

Kwaba njalo kuyo: abantu bayinyathela esangweni, yafa.

U-Elisha umprofethi wabiza enye yamadodana abaprofethi , wathi kuyo : Khwica, uphathe lo mfuma wamafutha esandleni sakho , uye eRamoti Gileyadi.

Bachitha yonke imizi ezungeza iGerari , ngokuba ingebhe ngoJehova yayiphezu kwabo ; baphanga yonke imizi, ngokuba kwakukhona impango eningi kuyo.

Wasusa kuyo imizi yakwaJuda izindawo eziphakemeyo , nama-altare empepho; umbuso wazola phambi kwakhe.

Wahamba ngendlela ka -Asa uyise , kaphambukanga kuyo , ekwenza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova.

bakhuphukela ukulwa noJuda , bafohlela kuye , basusa yonke impahla eyayifumaniseka endlini yenkosi kanye namadodana akhe nawomkakhe ; akusalanga ndodana kuyo, uJehowahazi omncane emadodaneni ayo kuphela.

Kepha abantu bempi ababebuyiselwe emu va ngu -Amasiya ukuba bangaphumi impi naye baphundla imizi yakwaJuda kusukela eSamariya kuze kube seBeti Horo ni, babulala kuyo izinkulungwane ezintathu , bathatha impango eningi.

USolomoni wathume la kuHiramu in kosi yaseTire , wathi: Njengalokho wakwenza kuDavide ubaba , wathuma kuye imisedari , azakhele ngayo indlu ukuba ahlale kuyo, yenze njalo nakimi.

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.

UShafani umbhali wayitshela inkosi , wathi: UHilikiya umpristi ung inike incwadi. UShafani wafunda kuyo phambi kwenkosi.

Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Bhekani, ngiyakwehlisela okubi phezu kwale ndawo naphezu kwabakhileyo kuyo , zonke iziqalekiso ezilotshiweyo encwadini abayifundileyo phambi kwenkosi yakwaJuda,

ngenxa yokuba inhliziyo yakho yayithambile , wazithoba phambi kukaNkulunkulu ekuzweni kwakho amazwi akhe ngale ndawo nangabakhileyo kuyo , yebo, wazithoba pha mbi kwami , waziklebhula izingubo zakho, wakhala phambi kwami, mina ngikuzwile, usho uJehova.

Bheka, ngiyakukubuthela koyihlo, ubuthelwe ethuneni lakho ngokuthula , angaboni amehlo akho konke okubi engiyakukwehlisela phezu kwale ndawo naphezu kwabakhileyo kuyo. Babuyisela enkosini leli zwi.

Wenza imicengezi eyishumi , wabeka eyisihlanu ngakwesokunene neyisihlanu ngakwesokhohlo ukuhla mbela kuyo ; okweminikelo yokushiswa babekugezela kuyo, kepha ulwandle lwalungolokuhlambela abapristi.

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

ogcine nenceku yakho uDavide ubaba lokho owakusho kuyo ; yebo, owakukhuluma ngomlomo wakho usukugcwalisile ngesandla sakho njengokuba kunjalo namuhla.

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.

Le ndlu ephakeme kangaka , yilowo nalowo odlula kuyo uyakumangala athi: UJehova wenzeleni kanje kuleli zwe nakule ndlu na?

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

Ilunga kuyo inkosikazi ekhethiweyo nabantwana bayo , engibathanda ngeqiniso, kungeyimi ngedwa kodwa nabo bonke abalaziyo iqiniso,

Kodwa, bathandekayo, maningakhohlwa lento inye yokuthi kuyo iNkosi usuku lunye lunjengeminyaka eyinkulungwane nokuthi iminyaka eyinkulungwane injengosuku lunye.

INkosi iyakungikhulula kuyo yonke imisebenzi emibi , ingisindise, ngize ngifike embusweni wayo osezulwini ; makube kuyo inkazimulo kuze kube phakade naphakade. Amen. Isigcino

kungesikho lokho kuphela, kodwa ukhethiwe futhi yiwo amabandla ukuba ahambisane nathi ngendaba yalo mnikelo osetshenzwe yithi , kube ludumo kuyo iNkosi, kubonakalise ukukhuthala kwethu,

Kepha siyanxusa , bazalwane, mayelana nokufika kweNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu nokubuthanela kwethu kuyo,

kepha empofu yayingenalutho , inexhukazana lilinye elincane nje kuphela , eyayilithengile yalondla ; lakhulela kuyo nakubantwana bayo ; ladla ucezu lwayo, laphuza esitsheni sayo , lalala esifubeni sayo , lalinjengendodakazi kuyo.

Wakhipha nabantu ababe phakathi kwawo , wababeka emasaheni , nasezibhuqweni zensimbi, nasemazembeni ensimbi, wabasebenzisa kohonela; wenze njalo kuyo yonke imizi yakwa-Amoni. UDavide nabo bonke abantu babuyela eJerusalema.

Kwase kufika isihambi endodeni ecebileyo , yayeka ukuthatha ezimvini nasezinkomeni zayo ukusilungisela leso sihambi esasifike kuyo , kepha yathatha ixhukazana lendoda empofu, yalilungisela umuntu owayefike kuyo.

ungene enkosini , ukhulume kuyo ngalendlela . UJowabe wayesemfunza amazwi emlonyeni wakhe.

Wayeseya uJowabe enkosini , wayitshela; isimbizile u -Abisalomu, weza enkosini, wakhothamela kuyo , ubuso bakhe bubheke phansi , phambi kwenkosi; inkosi yamanga u-Abisalomu.

U-Ithayi wayiphendula inkosi , wathi: Kuphila kukaJehova nokuphila kwenkosi yami , inkosi, impela kuleyo ndawo eyakuba kuyo inkosi yami , inkosi, noma kusekufeni noma kusekuphileni , lapho iyakuba khona nenceku yakho.

Mayibuyele emuva inceku yakho ukuba ngifele emzini wami ngasethuneni likababa nelikamame . Kepha bheka , inceku yakho uKimihamu mayiwele nenkosi yami, inkosi, wenze kuyo okuhle emehlweni akho.

Wathi uDavide kuyo insizwa eyayimtshelile : Ungowaphi na ? Wathi: Ngiyindodana yomuntu ogogobele nje, umAmaleki.

UDavide wathi kuyo : Yini ukuba ungesabanga ukwelula isandla sakho , ubhubhise ogcotshiweyo kaJehova, na?

UDavide wayesethuma izithunywa kubantu baseJabeshi Gileyadi , wathi kubo: Manibusiswe nguJehova , ngokuba nenzile lowo musa kuyo inkosi yenu, uSawule, nammbela.

Indoda yakhe yahamba na ye, ikhala isahamba, yamlandela kwaze kwaba seBahurimi. U-Abineri wayesethi kuyo: Buya. Yabuya-ke.

kepha umusa wami awuyikusuka kuyo , njengalokho ngawususa kuSawule engamsusa ngaphambi kwakho.

Hamba uyitshele inceku yami uDavide ukuthi : U sho kanje uJehova , uthi: Uyakungakhela indlu ukuba ngihlale kuyo na?

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

Kodwa ink osi yabantwana bakwa -Amoni ayilalelanga amazwi kaJefta awathuma kuyo.

Kwathi ngasekupheleni kwezinyanga ezimbili , yabuyela kuyise owenza kuyo njengokwesithembiso sakhe asethembisileyo; ayiyazanga indoda.

Owesifazane was hesha, wagijima, wayitshela indoda yakhe , wathi kuyo : Bheka, ubonakele kimi lowo muntu owafika kimi ngolunye usuku.

USamsoni wathi: Mangife namaFilisti. Wakhothama ngamandla akhe onke, indlu yawela phezu kwamakhosi naphezu kwabo bonke abantu ababe kuyo . Abafileyo ababulalayo ekufeni kwakhe babebaningi kunabo ababulalayo ekuhambeni kwakhe.

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

Umyeni waso wasuka, wasilandela ukuba akhulume kuyo inhliziyo yaso , asibuyise, enenceku yakhe nezimbongolo ezimbili; samngenisa endlini kayise; lapho uyise wentombi embona, wathokoza ukuhlangana naye.

Bahlala phansi, badla, baphuza bobabili kanyekanye; uyise wentombi wathi kuyo indoda: Ake udele, ulale ubusuku, ithokoze inhliziyo yakho.

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

Abantwana bakwaBenjamini benze njalo , bazithathela abafazi njeng enani labo kwabasinayo , ababaqhwagayo; bahamba, babuyela efeni labo , bakha imizi, bahlala kuyo.

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

Wabamba insizwa yabantu baseSukoti , wabuza kuyo ; yona yamlobela izikhulu zaseSukoti namalunga alo , abantu abangamashumi ayisikhombisa nesikhombisa.

Abenzanga umusa kuyo indlu kaJerubali onguGideyoni njengakho konke okuhle ayekwenzile ku-Israyeli.

Kepha umkhiwane wathi kuyo : Ngiyakubuyeka yini ubumnandi bami nezithelo zami ezinhle, ngiye ngintengantenge phezu kwemithi, na?

Umvini wathi kuyo : Ngiyakuliyeka yini iwayini lami elithokozisa onkulunkulu nabantu, ngiye ngintengantenge phezu kwemithi, na?

Isihlahla somkhaya sathi kuyo imithi : U ma ningigcoba impela ngibe yinkosi yenu , wozani niphephele emthunzini wami ; uma kungenjalo , makuphume umlilo kuso isihlahla somkhaya, uqede imisedari yaseLebanoni.

Kepha umnqumo wathi kuyo : Ngiyakuwayeka yini amafutha ami abadunyiswa ngawo onkulunkulu nabantu , ngiye ngintengantenge phezu kwemithi, na?

okwakhele kuyo izinyoni; ugolantethe unendlu yakhe kuyo imisayipuresi.

Ngiyakuphakamisela izandla zami kuyo imiyalo yakho engiyithandileyo , ngizindle ngezimiso zakho.

Ningethembi ezikhulwini nasendodaneni yomuntu okungekho kuyo ukusiza.

Yangeni indodana, ingaze ithukuthele, nibhubhe endleleni, ngokuba ulaka lwayo luyakuvutha masinyane. Babusisiwe bonke abaphephela kuyo.

Maningakwethembi ukuqhwaga , ningazigabisi ngokuphangiweyo ; uma imfuyo yanda, ningayibeki inhliziyo kuyo.

Nina zintaba ezineziqongo , yini ukuba niyibuke ngomhawu intab a uNkulunkulu athanda ukuhlala kuyo na ? Yebo, uJehova uyakuhlala kuyo kuze kube phakade.

Inzalo yezinceku zakhe iyakulidla ifa ; abathanda igama lakhe bayakuhlala kuyo.

Ngokuba iyakukhulula ompofu ozikhalela kuyo , nohluphekayo ongenamsizi.

Khumbula ibandla lakho owalizuza endulo , owalikhulula ukuba libe yisifunda sefa lakho, nentaba yaseSiyoni ohlala kuyo.

Wanikela izinkomo zabo esichothweni nezimvu zabo kuyo imibani.

Ukhumbulile umusa wakhe nokuthembeka kwakhe kuyo indlu ka -Israyeli; imikhawulo yonke yomhlaba ibonile insindiso kaNkulunkulu wethu.

Ngokuba ogcina wonke umthetho kepha akhubeke kowodwa, unecala kuyo yonke.

Ngaya kuyo ingelosi ; ngase ngithi kuyo mayinginike incwadi encane . Yayisithi kimi: Yithabathe, uyidle uyiqede; izakubaba esiswini sakho , kepha emlonyeni wakho iyakuba mnandi njengezinyosi.

Nenye ingelosi futhi yaphuma e-altare, inamandla phezu komlilo , yamemeza n gezwi elikhulu kuyo ebinesikela elibukhali , ithi: Faka isikela lakho elibukhali , ubuthe amahlukuzo omvini womhlaba , ngokuba izithelo zomvini zivuthiwe.

Ngase ngiwa phansi phambi kwezinyawo ukukhuleka kuyo. Yayisithi kimi: Musa; ngiyinceku kanye nawe nabazalwane bakho abaphethe ubufakazi bukaJesu; khuleka kuNkulunkulu. Ngokuba ubufakazi bukaJesu bungumoya wokuprofetha. UKristu uyalwa nesilo

Kuyo ingelosi yebandla lase -Efesu loba ukuthi : Nakhu akushoyo ophethe izinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa esandleni sakhe sokunene , ohamba phakathi kwezinti zezibani eziyisikhombisa zegolide, uthi:

Kwakungekho namunye ezulwini , nasemhlabeni, nangaphansi komhlaba owayenamandla okuyivula incwadi, abuke kuyo.

Ngakhala kakhulu ngokuba kungafunyanwanga namunye ofanele ukuyivula leyo ncwadi, abuke kuyo.

Ahlabelela igama elisha , athi: Ufanele wena ukuyithabatha incwad i nokuvula izimpawu zayo , ngokuba wahlatshwa, wabathengela uNkulunkulu ngegazi lakho abavela kuyo yonke imindeni, nezilimi, nabantu, nezizwe,

lithi kuyo ingelosi yesithupha enecilongo : Thukulula izingelosi ezine eziboshwe ngasemfuleni omkhulu u-Ewufrathe.

Vuka ukhale ebusuku ekuqaleni kwemilindo , uthulule inhliziyo yakho njengamanzi phambi kobuso beNkosi; phakamisa izandla zakho kuyo ngenxa yokuphila kwezingane ezidangala ngendlala ezingosini zezitaladi zonke.

ngenxa yentaba yaseSiyoni echithekile, zize zihambe kuyo izimpungushe.

Owesifazane okhutheleyo ungumqhele kuyo indoda yakhe , kepha ohlazisayo unjengokubola kwamathambo ayo.

Khulisa umntwana ngendlela eyakuba ngeyakhe; kuyakuthi lapho esekhulile, angasuki kuyo.

Yixwaye, ungadluli ngayo; chezuka kuyo, udlule.

Useyayibamba, uyayanga; uthwala amehlo, uthi kuyo:

Kodwa bathi kuyo : Uyahlanya. Yona yaqinisa yathi : Hhayi, kunjalo. Bona bathi: Yingelosi yakhe.

Emva kwezinsuku ezithile uPawulu wayesethi kuBarnaba : Ake sibuye , sihambele abazalwane emizini yonke ngaminye esashumayela kuyo izwi leNkosi, sibone ukuthi bahlezi kanjani.

Yakwenza lokho izinsuku eziningi . Kepha uPawulu esecasukile waphenduka, wathi kumoya : Ngiyakuyala egameni likaJesu Kristu ukuba uphume kuyo. Wayesephuma ngaso leso sikhathi.

Kepha uPawulu wehla , wawa phezu kwayo , wayisingatha, wathi: Ningaxokozeli, ngokuba umphefumulo wayo usekhona kuyo,

UPawulu wayesebiza enye i nduna yekhulu, wathi: Yisa le nsizwa enduneni yenkulungwane, ngokuba inento ezakuyibika kuyo.

Ngokuba inkosi engikhuluma kuyo ngesibindi iyazi ngalezi zinto, ngokuba angikholwa ukuthi kukhona utho lwalokhu olufihlekile kuyo ; ngokuba lokhu akwenziwanga engosini.

Batheleka endaweni enolwandle nxazombili , baqhubela umkhumbi kuyo , inhloko yomkhumbi yagxumekeka , yema ingenakunyakaziswa , kepha ingasemuva laphulwa ngamandla amaza.

Ngokungazelelwe kwavela ezulwini inhlokomo kwangathi eyokuvunguza komoya onamandla; yona yagcwalisa indlu yonke ababehlezi kuyo.

INkosi yayisithi kuye : Khumula izicathulo ezinyaweni zakho , ngokuba indawo omi kuyo ingumhlabathi ongcwele.

Qha, nathatha itende likaMolok i nenkanyezi kankulunkulu uRemfani , imifanekiso enayenza ukuba nikhuleke kuyo. Ngiyakunimukisela ngaphambili kweBabiloni.

UFiliphu wayesegijimela kuyo , wayizwa ifunda umprofethi u-Isaya, wathi: Uyakuqonda kambe lokhu okufundayo na?

Kepha uFiliphu wafunyanwa e-Azotu, wahamba eshumayela ivangeli kuyo yonke imizi, waze wafika eKesariya.

Kepha yiyiphi yezingelosi ake asho kuyo ukuthi : Hlala ngakwesokunene sami, ngize ngenze izitha zakho zibe yisenabelo sezinyawo zakho, na?

Ngokuba yiyiphi yezingelosi ake asho kuyo ukuthi: UyiNdodana yami wena, namuhla ngikuzele , na? nokuthi: Ngiyakuba nguYise kuyona , yona ibe yiNdodana kimina, na?

Ngokuba singumsebenzi wakhe kuKristu Jesu, sidalelwe imisebenzi emihle ayilungisela ngaphambili uNkulunkulu ukuba sihambe kuyo.

njengokulangazela nokwethemba kwami ukuthi ayikho into engizakujabhiswa kuyo , kepha ngesibindi sonke , njengasezikhathini zonke namanje, uKristu uyakwenziwa mkhulu emzimbeni wami , nokuba kungokuphila nokuba kungokufa.

Bazalwane, ngikhulumisa okwabantu : nokuba kuyintando yokugcina yomuntu eyaqiniswayo, akakho oyichithayo noma enezele kuyo.

Ngokuba ohlwanyelela inyama yakhe uyakuvuna ukubhubha kuyo inyama ; kepha ohlwanyelela uMoya uyakuvuna ukuphila okuphakade kuMoya.

ngokuba kwadalelwa kuyo konke okusezulwini nasemhlabeni, okubonwayo nokungenakubonwa, nokuba kuyizihlalo zobukhosi , nokuba kuyimibuso , nokuba kuyizikhulu, nokuba kuyiziphathimandla ; konke kwadalwa ngayo , kwadalelwa yona;

ngokuba kwaba kuhle kuye ukuba ukugcwala konke kuhlale kuyo

Kepha makabongwe uNkulunkulu ukuthi nina enaniyizinceku zesono senilalela ngenhliziyo indlela yesifundiso enanikelwa kuyo

Ngalokho-ke, bazalwane, asinacala kuyo inyama lokuba sihambe ngokwenyama.

Kepha uJesu wayengakafiki emzini , kodwa wayesekuleyo ndawo uMarta amhlangabeza kuyo.

Ngakho-ke kwathi ezwa ukuthi uyagula , wahlala futhi izinsuku ezimbili endaweni abe kuyo.

UJesu esefumene i mbongolo entsha wakhwela kuyo njengokulotshiwe ukuthi:

Ngakho esephumile , uJesu wathi : Kalokhu iNdodana yomuntu ikhazimulisiwe, noNkulunkulu ukhazimulisiwe kuyo.

Uma uNkulunkulu ekhazimulisiwe kuyo, noNkulunkulu uyakuyikhazimulisa kuye, uyakuyikhazimulisa masinyane.

UJesu esekhulume lawo mazwi waphuma kanye nabafundi bakhe , waya phesheya komfudlana iKedroni, lapho kwakukhona insimu angena kuyo yena nabafundi bakhe.

Ngakho-ke uJesu wathi kuyo: Uma ningaboni izibonakaliso nezimangaliso, anisoze nakholwa.

Wathi kuyo uJesu: Hamba, indodana yakho iphilile. Lowo muntu wakholwa yizwi alishilo kuye uJesu, wahamba.

Kwakulele kuyo abagulayo abaningi kakhul u, izimpumputhe, nezinyonga, nabashwabeneyo, belindele ukuzanyazanyiswa kwamanzi.

Nihlola imibhalo , ngokuba nithi ninokuphila okuphakade kuyo ; yiyona efakaza ngami.

Khona baphinda bathi kuyo impumputhe : Wena uthini ngaye, lokhu evule amehlo akho, na? Yathi: Ungumprofethi.

Wathi kuyo : Hamba uyogeza echibini laseSilowama , okuhunyushwa ngokuthi oThunyiweyo; yamuka-ke, yageza, yeza ibona.

Nakuyiphi indlu eningena kuyo, qalani nithi: Ukuthula makube kule ndlu.

Nxa umoya ongcolileyo ephumile kumuntu, uyadabula izindawo ezomileyo efuna ukuphumula ; engakufumani uthi : Ngizakubuyela endlini yami engaphuma kuyo.

Wazindla phakathi kwakhe , wathi: Ngizakwenzani, lokhu ngingenandawo engingabuthela kuyo ukudla kwami, na?

Akuthengwa yini imizwilili eyisihlanu ngezindibilishi ezimbili na ? Akukhohlakele namunye kuyo emehlweni kaNkulunkulu.

Noma yiyiphi inkosi eya kwenye inkosi ukuhlaselana nayo engaqali ihlale phansi, ihlole ukuba inamandla yini ukuhlangabezana ngezinkulungwane eziyishumi naleyo eza kuyo, inezinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili na?

Kuthe sekusile kuyo , yathi: Bangaki abaqashwa bakab aba abanokudla okuningi, kanti mina ngifa indlala lapha.

Wathi kuyo: Kufike umfowenu; uyihlo wahlaba ithole elikhuluphalisiweyo , ngokuba ubuye wamthola ephilile.

Wayesethi kuyo : M ntanami, wena uhlala nami njalo ; konke okwami kungokwakho.

Ngumuphi kini onenceku elimayo nokuba eyalusayo, athi kuyo ibuya endle: Sondela masinyane, uhlale phansi, udle ?

Kodwa akayikusho kuyo ukuthi: Lungisa engizakukudla , uzibophe, ungiphakele, ngize ngidle, ngiphuze, andukuba udle, uphuze wena, na?

UJesu wathi kuyo: Bona! Ukukholwa kwakho kukusindisile.

Wathi kuyo : Kuhle-ke, nceku enhle ; lokhu ufunyanwe uthembekile kokuncinyane, uzakubusa phezu kwemizi eyishumi.

Wathi kuyo : Ngizakukwahlulela ngomlomo wakho wena nceku embi . Ubuwazi u kuba ngingumumtu olukhuni , ngithabatha engingakubekanga , ngivuna engingakuhlwanyelanga;

Esefikile uJesu kuleyo ndawo wabheka phezulu, wathi kuyo: Zakewu, shesha wehle, ngokuba namuhla ngimelwe ukuhlala endlini yakho.

Wathi kubo: Bhekani, seningene emzini niyakuhlangana nomuntu othwele imbiza yamanzi; mlandeleni, niye endlini angena kuyo,

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

wabona imikhumbi emibili imi ngaselwandle ; abadobi babephumile kuyo behlanza amanetha.

Kepha waz azi izizindlo zabo wathi kuyo indoda esandla sishwabene : Sukuma, ume phakathi. Wasukuma-ke, wema.

Inceku yenduna yekhulu ethile ethandekayo kuyo yayigula, isizakufa.

Amadoda esefikile kuyo athi : UJohane uMbhapathizi usithumele kuwe , ethi: Wena unguye ozayo, noma sobheka omunye na?

Kepha indoda okuphume kuyo amademoni yamnxusa ukuba ibe naye ; kodwa wayimukisa, ethi:

Bheka, umoya uyayibamba, idazuluke masinyane; uyihlukumeza, ikhihlize amagwebu, amuke kuyo eseyizukile.

Nakuyiphi indlu eningena kuyo, hlalani lapho, nize nimuke khona.

Wayesema uJesu, wathi: Mbizeni. Bayibiza impumputhe, bathi kuyo: Yima isibindi, usukume; uyakubiza.

UJesu washo kuyo , wathi: Ufuna ukuba ngikwenzeleni na ? Impumputhe yathi kuye: Rabuni, ukuba ngibone.

UJesu wathi kuyo : Hamba-ke; ukukholwa kwakho kukusindisile . Yayisibona khona lapho, yamlandela endleleni.

Kwase kusondela omunye wababhali owayebezwile bebuzana , eqonda ukuthi wayebaphendule kahle, wambuza wathi: Ngumuphi umyalo wokuqala kuyo yonke na?

Kepha uPilatu wamangala ngokuthi ngabe usefile , wabiza induna yekhulu, wabuza kuyo ukuthi sekukade efile na?

Wathi kubo : Nakuphi lapho ningena khona endlini , hlalani kuyo , nize nimuke khona.

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

Wafunga kuyo, wathi: Noma yini ongakucela kimi ngizakukunika , nakuba kungaze kube yinxenye yombuso wami.

Abaningi sebebabona bemuka , baqonda, baze bagijimela khona ngezinyawo, bephuma kuyo yonke imizi, babandulela.

Akuthengwa yini imizwilili emibili ngendibilishi na ? Kepha akuyikuwa phansi namunye kuyo ngaphandle kukaYihlo.

Wayeseqala ukujezisa imizi okwakwenziwe kuyo iningi lemisebenzi yakhe yamandla, ngokuba ingaphendukanga, wathi:

Khona uthi : Ngizakubuyela endlini yami engaphuma kuyo ; esefikile, ayifumane ize, ishaneliwe, ihlotshisiwe.

UJesu wayeseyikhuza , idemoni laphuma kuyo ; umfana waphulukiswa kusukela kuleso sikhathi.

Ngalokho inceku yawa phansi , yakhuleka kuyo, yathi: Ake ungibekezelele, ngizakukukhokhela konke.

Kepha kwathi isiphuma leyo nceku , yafumana enye yezinceku ezikanye nayo enecala kuyo lawodenariyu abayikhulu , yayibamba, yayiklinya, yathi: Khokha icala lakho.

Khona inkosi yayo yayibiza , yathi kuyo : Nceku embi , lonke lelo cala ngikuthethelele lona ngokuba wangincenga;

Kepha abapristi abakhulu nababhali , bebona izimangaliso azenzayo nabantwana bememeza ethempelini, bethi: Hosiyana kuyo iNdodana kaDavide, bacasuka,

Yishoni kuyo indodakazi yaseSiyon i ukuthi: Bheka, iNkosi yakho iza kuwe , imnene, ikhwele embongolweni , yebo, etholeni, inkonyane yesilwane esiboshelwayo.

Izixuku ezazihamba pha mbili nezazimlandela zamemeza zathi : Hosiyana kuyo iNdodana kaDavide ! Ubusisiwe ozayo egameni leNkosi . Hosiyana kweliphezulu!

Wathi kuyo: Mina ngizakuza ngimphulukise.

Akakho obekela isiziba sendwangu engakashukeki engutsheni endala , ngokuba lokhu okubekelwa kuyo kuyaklebhula engutsheni , kwande ukuklebhuka.

Zondani okubi , nithande okuhle , nimise uk wahlulela esangweni ; mhlawumbe uJehova uNkulunkulu Sebawoti uyakuba nomus a kuyo insali yakwaJosefa.

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.

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

Imfuyo yethu nayo iyakuhamba nathi ; akuyikusala nanselo , ngokuba siyakuthatha kuyo lokhu esiyakumkhonza ngakho uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu; asikwazi esiyakumkhonza ngakho uJehova, singakafiki khona.

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

Kuyakuthi lapho indodana yakho ikubuza ngesikhathi esizayo , ithi: Kuyini lokhu? wothi kuyo : Ngesandla esinamandla uJehova wasikhipha eGibithe , indlu yobugqila.

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

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

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

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

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

Umfana wakhula, wayiswa kuyo indodakazi kaFaro, waba yindodana yayo. Yamqamba igama lokuthi uMose, ithi: Ngokuba ngamkhipha emanzini. Ukubaleka kukaMose

Udadewabo wayesethi kuyo indodakazi kaFaro : Ngihambe ngikubizele umzanyana kuwo amaHeberu ukuba akuncelisele ingane na?

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

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

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.

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

Ngokuba uMoridekayi , umJuda, wayelama inkosi u -Ahashiveroshi ngobukhulu, emkhulu phakathi kwabaJuda , ethokozelwa ngaba fowabo abaningi, efuna okuhle kwesizwe sakubo , ekhuluma ukuthula kuyo yonke inzalo yabo.

yathi: Siyakwenze njani kuyo inkosikazi uVashiti njengomthetho , ngokuba ayenzanga izwi lenkosi u-Ahashiveroshi ngesandla sezinduna, na?

Wamnika futhi impinda yomthetho olotshiweyo owashaywa eShushani wokuba babhujiswe , ukuze amtshengise yona u -Esteri, amtshele ngayo , amyale ukuba angene enkosini uk unxusa kuyo, acelele abantu bakhe phambi kwayo.

Zathi-ke izinceku zenkosi kuyo: Bheka, uHamani umi egcekeni. Yathi inkosi: Makangene.

bathuma incwadi kuye okulotshwe kuyo ukuthi : KuDariyu inkosi; makube ngukuthula konke.

UJehova uthulule umoya ophambeneyo phakathi kwabo , baze balintengantengise iGibithe kuyo yonke imisebenzi yal o njengesidakwa sintengantenga ebuhlanzweni baso.

Ngalolo suku uJehova Sebawoti uyakuba ngumqhele wobukhosi , nesicoco esihle kuyo insali yabantu bakhe,

Kunalokho uJehova uyakuba nathi khona ebukhosini esikhundleni semifula nemifudlana ebanzi , lapho kungayikuhamba khona izikebhe ezinamaphini , nomkhumbi omkhulu ungadluli kuyo.

Kuyakuba khona umend o nendlela eyakuthiwa iNdlela Yobungcwele ; ongcolileyo akay ikuhamba ngayo , kepha iyakuba ngeyabantu bakhe ; abahamba ngayo, noma beyiziwula, abayikuduka kuyo.

Abakhe kuyo babe namandla amancane , besaba, bajabha; baba njengotshani basendle , nembali notshani obuluhlaza , nokuluhlaza ezimpahleni zezindlu, namabele ahamukile engakakhuli.

Bhekani, ngiyakubeka umoya kuyo , izwe amahemuhemu , ibuyele ezweni lakubo, ngiyiwise ngenkemba ezweni lakubo.

Ukukhetha kwabo ubuso kuyafakaza ngabo ; benza izono zabo obala njengeSodoma, abazifihli. Maye kuyo imiphefumulo yabo ! Ngokuba bazenzele okubi.

Ihlane nemizi y alo makujabul e nemizana abakhileyo kuyo abakwaKedari , bahube abakhile emadwaleni, benanele beseziqongweni zezintaba.

Ngiyakusho kuyo inyakatho , ngithi: Balethe, nakuyo iningizimu : Ungabagodli. Lethani amadodana ami akude , namadodakazi am i ukuba aphume emikhawulweni yomhlaba,

Owesifazane angakhohlwa umntwana wakhe oncelay o ukuba angabi namusa kuyo indodana yesizalo sakhe na? Yebo, bona bangakhohlwa, kodwa mina anginakukukhohlwa wena.

Ngilaleleni nina enilandela ukulunga , nina enimfunayo uJehova ; bhekani kulo idwala eniqhezulwe kulo, nakuyo imibhobo yomgodi enakhishwa kuyo.

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

Ngokuba njengokuba umhlaba uveza ihlumela lawo , nanjengensimu ehlumisa okutshalwe kuyo , kanjalo iNkosi uJehova iyakuvez a ukulunga nodumo phambi kwezizwe zonke.

Bhekani, uJehova uyezwakal a kuze kube sekugcineni komhlaba , ethi: Yishoni kuyo indodakazi yaseSiyoni ukuthi : Bheka, insindiso yakho iyeza . Bheka, umvuzo wakhe unawo, nenkokhelo yakhe iphambi kobuso bakhe.

Impisi iyakudla ndawonye newundlu , ingonyama idle utshani njengenkomo, uthuli lube ngukudla kwenyoka ; aziyikulimaza, zingachithi kuyo yonke intaba yami engcwele, usho uJehova.

Bayakuphuma, babone izidumbu zabantu abaphambukile kimi , ngokuba impethu yabo ayiyikufa nomlilo wabo awuyikucima , babe yisinengiso kuyo yonke inyama.

Ngase ngithi : Nkosi, koze kube nini na ? Yathi: Kuze kuchithwe imizi , kungabe kusaba khona ohlala kuyo , nezindlu zingabe zisaba namuntu , nomhlaba uchitheke ube yize,

Ngiyakumlindela uJehov a ositheza ubuso bakhe kuyo indlu kaJakobe , ngethembe kuye.

Laba bafana abane uNkulunkulu wabanika ukwazi nokuqonda encwadini nasekuhlakanipheni; uDaniyeli wayenengqondo kuyo yonke imibono namaphupho.

U-Ariyoki wayeseshesha ukumngenisa uDaniyeli phambi kwenkosi , washo kanje kuyo, wathi: Ngifumene umuntu wabathunjwa bakwaJuda oyakwazisa inkosi incazelo.

Khona inkosi uBelishasari yesaba kakhulu , nokucwebezela kwayo kwaguquka kuyo, nezinduna zayo zamangala.

Inkosi yase iya endlini yayo yobukhosi, yadlulisa ubusuku izila; izinkenezo zokubethwa azilethwanga kuyo, nobuthongo bayibalekela.

Base bebuthana labo bongameli nez ikhulu enkosini , basho kanje kuyo , bathi: Mana njalo, nkosi Dariyu.

Wayesethi: Isilo sesine siyakuba ngumbuso wesine emhlabeni , oyakwahluka kuyo yonke imibuso , udle wonke umhlaba , uwunyathele, uwaphule.

Yafika enqameni eyayinezimpondo ezimbili , engayibona imi phambi komfula, yatheleka kuyo ngokufutheka kwayo okunamandla.

Ngase ngibhekisa ubuso bami kuyo iNkosi uNkulunkulu ukuba ngikhuleke , nginxuse ngokuzila ukudla, nangendwangu yamasaka, nangomlotha.

Kepha kuyo iNkosi , uNkulunkulu wethu , kukhona umusa nokuthethelela ; ngokuba simhlubukile,

nowakwenzayo kuyo impi yaseGibithe , nakuwo amahhashi abo , nakuzo izinqola zabo , nokwenza kwakhe ukuba amanzi oLwandle Olubomvu abaminzise ekunixosheni kwabo , nokubabhubhisa kukaJehova kuze kube namuhla,

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

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

ukudle phambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho endaweni ayakuyikhetha yena ukuba igama lakhe lihlale kuyo , okweshumi kwamabele akho , nokwewayini lakho, nokwamafutha akho, nokwamazibulo ezinkomo zakho , nokwawezimvu zakho , ukuba ufunde ukumesaba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho njalo.

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

wename phambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho, wena nendodana yakho, nendodakazi yakho, nenceku yakho, nencekukazi yakho, nomLevi ophakathi kwamasango akho , nomfokazi, nentandane, nomfelokazi abaphakathi kwakho endaweni uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ayakuyikhetha ukuba igama lakhe lihlale kuyo.

Uyakunikela ngephasika kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ezimvini nasezinkomeni endaweni uJehova ayakuyikhetha ukuba kuhlale igama lakhe kuyo.

kepha endaweni ayakuyikhetha uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ukuba igama lakhe lihlale kuyo , lapho uyakuhlaba iphasika kusihlwa ekushoneni kwelanga, ngesikhathi owaphuma ngaso eGibithe.

Nasondela kimi nina nonke , nathi: M asithume amadoda phambi kwethu ukuba asihlolele izwe , asibuyisele izwi ngendlela esimelwe ukukhuphuk a ngayo, nangemizi esiyakufika kuyo.

owahamba phambi kwenu endleleni ukunifunela indaw o ukuba nimise kuyo amatende enu, ngomlilo ebusuku ukunibonisa indlela ebeniyakuhamba ngayo, nangefu emini.

Uyakwenze njalo kuyo yonke imizi ekude kakhulu nawe , engesiyo imizi yalezi zizwe.

USarayi wathi ku -Abrama: Bheka-ke, uJehova ungivalile ekuzaleni; mawungene kuyo incekukazi yami ; mhlawumbe ngizakwakhelwa ngayo . U- Abrama walalela izwi likaSarayi.

U-Abrama wathi kuSarayi: Bheka, incekukazi yakho isesandleni sakho; yenza kuyo okufanele emehlweni akho . USarayi wayilaya, yabaleka ebusweni bakhe.

Ingelosi kaJehova yathi kuye : Buyela kuyo inkosikazi yakho , uzithobise phansi kwesandla sayo.

Kwathi lapho uNkulunkulu ebhubhisa imizi yasethafeni , uNkulunkulu wakhumbula u -Abrahama, waphumisa uLoti ekuchithekeni mhla ebhubhisa imizi ayehlezi kuyo uLoti.

UJuda wabona lapho indodakazi yomuntu waseKhanani ogama lakhe linguShuwa; wayithatha, wangena kuyo.

Wakhuluma kuyo wona lawa mazwi , wathi: Le nceku engumHeberu , osilethele yona, ize kimi ukuba idlale ngami;

Ngokuba ebebakhonza phambi kwezithombe zabo , aba yisikhubekiso sobubi kuyo indlu ya kwa-Israyeli, ngalokho ngiphakamisile isandla sami kuwo, isho iNkosi uJehova, athwale ububi bawo.

Yebo, ngiyakuwabeka abagcini benkonzo yendlu emsebenzini wonke wayo kukho konke okuyakwenziwa kuyo.

Uyakusho kuyo indlu ehlubu kileyo yakwa-Israyeli, uthi: Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Nina ndlu yakwa-Israyeli, mazanele kini zonke izinengiso zenu,

Izinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nanhlanu ubude nezinkulungwane eziyishumi ububanzi ziyakuba ngezamaLevi, izikhonzi zendlu, zibe yifa lawo lemizi ukuhlala kuyo.

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.

Ngalokho oyise bayakudla abantwana babo phakathi kwakho , abantwana badle oyise , ngenze izahlulelo phakathi kwakho , ngihlakaze kuyo yonke imimoya yonke insali yakho.

Inxenye yesithathu yakho iyakufa ngesifo , baphele nangendlala phakath i kwakho; inxenye yesithathu iyakuwa ngenkemba nxazonke zakho , nenxenye yesithathu iyakuhlakazwa kuyo yonke imimoya , ngihoshe inkemba emva kwabo.

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.

Wathi kimi: Uyakubona lokhu wena ndodana yomuntu na ? Kuyinto elula kuyo indlu yakwaJuda ukwenza izinengiso abazenzayo lapho na ? Ngokuba sebeligcwalisile izwe ngobudlova , babuye bangicunula . Bhekani, babeka amagatsha emakhaleni abo.

UJehova wathi kuyo: Dabula emzini , phakathi kweJerusalema , ubeke uphawu emabunzini abantu ababubula bekhala ngazo zonke izinengiso ezenziwa phakathi kwalo.

Iyakuyiswa e -Asiriya ibe yisipho kuyo inkosi uJarebi ; u-Efrayimi uyakwamukela ihlazo, u-Israyeli ajabhe ngeziluleko zakhe.

walwa nengelosi, wanqoba; wakhala, wanxusa kuyo; yamfumana eBethele, yakhuluma naye lapho.

I-Asiriya aliyikusisindisa , asisayikukhwela amahhashi , singasasho kuyo imisebenzi yezandla zethu ukuthi ngonkulunkulu bethu , ngokuba intandane iphiwa umusa kuwe.

Mina-ke senginjengenundu ku -Efrayimi, nanjengokubola kuyo indlu yakwaJuda.

Ngokuba ngiyakuba njengengonyama ku -Efrayimi, nebhongo lengonyama kuyo indlu yakwaJuda ; mina yebo , mina ngiyakudwengula , besengimuka; ngiyakususa, kungekho owophulayo.

Yisho kuyo inkos i nakuyo indlovukazi ukut hi: Hlalani phansi ngokuzithoba, ngokuba izigqoko zenu ziwile phansi , umqhele wodumo lwenu.

Ngiyakwenze njalo kule ndawo , usho uJehova , nakwabakhileyo kuyo , ngenze lo muzi ube njengeThofeti:

Ngokuba bangishiyile, benze le ndawo ukuba ibe ngeyabezizwe , bashisela abanye onkulunkulu impepho kuyo , abangabazanga, bona nawoyise namakhosi akwaJuda, bagcwalisa le ndawo ngegazi labangenacala,

Ngiyakukhipha ukwahlulela kwami phezu kwabo ngenxa yabo bonke ububi babo, ngokuba bangihlubukile, bashisela abanye onkulunkulu impepho , bakhuleka kuyo imisebenzi yezandla zabo.

Wena ohlala eLebanoni , owakha isidleke sakho kuyo imisedari , uyakuhawukelwa kangakanan i ngokufikelwa kwakho yimihelo , imihelo enjengeyobelethayo!

Lo muntu uKhoniya uyisitsha esidelelw eyo nesaphukileyo na ? Uyindebe okungekho kuyo intokozo na? Uzwitshelweni yena nenzalo yakhe, balahlelwa ezweni abangalaziyo, na?

Ngokuba washo kanje uJehova uNkulunk ulu ka -Israyeli kimi , wathi: Thatha le ndebe yewayini lokufutheka esandleni sami , uphuzise kuyo zonke izizwe engikuthuma kuzo.

Abelusi abayikuba nandawo ukubalekela kuyo, izikhulu zomhlambi zingabi nasiphephelo.

UHezekiya inko si yakwaJuda naye wonke uJuda bambulala impela na ? Angithi bamesaba uJehova , bamncenga uJehova , uJehova wabuya kukho okubi ayekukhulume kubo , na? Besiyakwenza okubi okukhulu kuyo imiphefumulo yethu.

Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Yima egcekeni lendlu kaJehova, ukhulume kuyo yonke imizi yakwaJuda efika ukukhuleka endlini kaJehova onke amazwi engikuyala ukuwakhuluma kubo, ungagodli zwi.

Nanka amazwi encwadi uJeremiya , umprofethi, ayithumayo eseJerusalema kuyo insali yamalunga athunjiweyo , nakubapristi, nakubaprofethi, nakubo bonke abantu ayebathumbile uNebukadinesari eJerusalema , wabayisa eBabele,

Ngiyakufunyanwa yinina , usho uJehova , ngibuyise ukuthunjwa kwenu , nginibuthe ezizweni zonke nasezindaweni zonke lapho nginixoshele khona, usho uJehova, nginibuyisele endaweni enganenza ukuba nithunjwe kuyo.

Ngokuba abantu bami benzile ok ubi okubili : bangishiyile, umthombo wamanzi aphilileyo , bazigubhele imithombo , imithombo evuzayo , amanzi angenakuhlala kuyo.

Amabhongo ezingonyama abhongile phezu kw akhe, akhonya, alenza izwe lakhe laba yincithakalo; imizi yakhe ishisiwe, kungekho owakhe kuyo.

Bayakufika bekhala, ngibahambise bekhuleka, ngibayise emifuleni yamanzi ngendlela eqondileyo abangayikukhubeka kuyo , ngokuba nginguyise ka - Israyeli, no-Efrayimi uyizibulo lami.

UJeremiya wathi kuyo indlu yamaRekabi : Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Ngenxa yokuba niwulalele umyalo kaJonadaba uyihlo, nagcina yonke imiyalo yakhe, nenza ngakho konke aniyala ngakho,

Mhlawumbe indlu yakwaJuda iyakuzwa konke okubi engicabanga ukukwenza kuyo ukuba ibuye , kube yilo wo nalowo endleleni yakhe embi , ngiyithethelele amacala ayo nezono zayo.

Ngalokho yazini nokwazi ukuthi niyakufa ngenkemba , nangendlala, nangesifo endaweni enifisa ukuya kuyo ukuba nigogobale khona.

Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Nikubonile konke okubi engikwehlisele phez u kweJerusalema naphezu kwayo yonke imizi yakwaJuda; bhekani, namuhla iyincithakalo, akakho ohlala kuyo

Manje usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu Sebawoti, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Nenzelani lokhu okubi okukhulu kuyo imiphefumulo yenu , ninqume kini abesilisa nabesifazane , izingane nabancelayo phakathi kukaJuda , nize ningashiyelwa nsali,

Nikani uMowabi amaphiko , ngokuba uyakundiza , aphume; imizi yakhe iyakuba yincithakalo, kungabikho osahlala kuyo.

Bheka, njengengonyama ekhuphuka ezihlahleni zaseJordani, iye endaweni eyinqaba, ngiyakubazuma, ngibagijimise, basuke kuyo ; nobani okhethwayo ngiyakumbeka phezu kwabo , ngokuba ngubani onjengami , ngubani onginqumelayo, ngumuphi umalusi oyakuma phambi kwami, na?

Ngiyakwehlisela phezu kwe-Elamu imimoya emine emikhawulweni yomine yezulu, ngibahlakazele kuyo yonke leyo mimoya , kungabe kusabakho sizw e lapho abaxoshiweyo base-Elamu bengayikufika khona.

Umuzi wonke uyabalek a ngenxa yomsindo wabamahhash i nowabemicibisholo; bayangena ezihlahleni, bakhuphukele emadwaleni; imizi yonke ishiyiwe, akakho ohlala kuyo.

Ingonyama ikhuphukile esihlahleni sayo , umchithi wezizwe uyeza ; uphumile endaweni yakh e ukuba ulenze izwe lakho libe yincithakalo , ichithwe imizi yakho, kungabikho ohlala kuyo.

Bheka, njengengonyama ekhuphuka ezihlahleni zaseJordani, iye endaweni eyinqaba, ngiyakubazuma, ngibagijimise, basuke kuyo ; nobani okhethwayo ngiyakumbeka phezu kwabo , ngokuba ngubani onjengami , ngubani onginqumelayo, ngumuphi umalusi oyakuma phambi kwami, na?

Ngokuba usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Indodakazi yaseBabele injengesibuya ngesikhathi sokunyathelwa kwaso; kuse yisikhashana, sizakufika kuyo isikhathi sokuvuna.

uthi: Jehova, wena ukhulumile ngale ndawo ukuba uyinqume ukuze kungabikho muntu ohlala kuyo, umuntu nasilwane, ngokuba iyakuba yihlane kuze kube phakade.

Lapho usuqedile ukuyifunda le ncwadi , uyakubopha itshe kuyo, uyiphonse e-Ewufrathe,

Bayakudla okuvuniweyo kwakho nesinkwa sakho , badle amadodana akho namadodakazi akho , badle izimvu zakho nezinkomo z akho, badle imivini yakho nemikhiwane yakho , bachithe ngenkemba imizi yakh o ebiyelweyo othemba kuyo.

Ngalokho ingonyama yasehlathini iyakubashaya, babhujiswe yimpisi yasehlane, ingwe iyiqamekele imizi yabo , badatshulwe bonke abaphuma kuyo, ngokuba iziphambeko zabo ziningi, nokuhlehla kwabo kwandile.

Abelusi bayakufika kuyo benemihlambi yabo , bamise amatende abo ngakuyo nxazonke, baluse, kube yilowo nalowo endaweni yakhe.

Kepha hambani niye endaweni yami eShilo, lapho ngalibeka khona igama lami kuqala, nibone engakwenzayo kuyo ngenxa yobubi babantu bami u - Israyeli.

ngiyakwenza kule ndlu ebizwe ngegama lami nenithemba kuyo , nakule ndawo enganinika yona nina nawoyihlo, njengalokho ngenza kulo iShilo.

Ngokuba iyingcosana iminyaka eyakubalwa , ngingakahambi indlela engingayikubuya kuyo.

Ungayethemba, ngokuba amandla ayo makhulu , ushiye umshikashika wakho kuyo, na?

Uyakwencika endlini yakhe , kepha ayiyikuma ; uyakubambelela kuyo , kepha ayiyikuqina.

UJehova wakhuluma kuyo inhlanzi , yamhlanzela uJona emhlabathini owomileyo.

UJoshuwa wathatha iMakheda ngalolo suku , walichitha ngosiko lwenkemba kanye nenkosi yalo , wabaqothula nabo bonke abakulo , akashiyanga noyedwa owasalayo ; wenza-ke kuyo inkosi yaseMakheda njengalokho ebenzile kuyo inkosi yaseJeriko.

uJehova walinikela nalo nenkosi yalo esandleni sakwa -Israyeli, walichitha ngosiko lwenkemba nabo bonke abakulo , akashiyanga noyedwa owasala phakathi kwalo; wenza-ke kuyo inkosi yalo njengalokho ebenzile kuyo inkosi yaseJeriko.

Kepha imizi eyayimi emagqumeni ayo u-Israyeli akashisanga namunye kuyo ngaphandle kweHasori kuphela; lowo uJoshuwa wawushisa.

nawo wonke umbuso ka-Ogi eBashani owayebusa e-Ashitaroti nase-Edireyi, owayesele kuyo insali yamaRefa; uMose wabanqoba, wabaxosha.

Ngokuba abantwana bakwaJosefa ba be yizizwe ezimbili , oManase no - Efrayimi; abawanikanga amaLevi isabelo ezweni , kuphela imizi ukuhlala kuyo, namadlelo ayo ezinkomo zawo, neyemfuyo yawo.

UJoshuwa wayesekhuluma kuyo indlu kaJosefa , naku-Efrayimi, nakuManase, ethi: Uyisizwe esikhulu , unamandla amakhulu ; awuyikuba nasabelo esisodwa nje;

Le ncwadi yomthetho mayingasuki emlonyeni wakho, kepha wozindla ngayo imini nobusuku ukuba uqaphele ukwenza njengakho konke okulotshwe kuyo, ngokuba lapho uyakuhlahlamelisa indlela yakho, uphumelele kahle.

bakhuluma kubo eShilo ezweni laseKhanani , bathi: UJehova wayala ngesandla sikaMose ukuba siphiwe imizi ukuhlala kuyo kanye namadlelo ayo, abe ngawezinkomo zethu.

Kuyo inxenye yesizwe sakwaManase : iThahanaki namadlelo alo , neGati Rimoni namadlelo alo, imizi mibili.

Abantwana bakwaGereshoni bemindeni yamaLevi babelwa kuyo inxenye yesizwe sakwaManase iGolanu eBashani namadlelo alo, umuzi wokuphephela wombulali, neBeyeshitera namadlelo alo, imizi mibili.

Leyo mizi yonke yayinamadlelo ayo nxazonke zayo ; kwakunjalo kuyo yonke leyo mizi.

Akuphuthanga lutho kukho konke okuhle uJehova akukhuluma kh ona kuyo indlu ka-Israyeli; kwenziwa konke.

Nganinika izwe eningakhandlekanga kulo, nemizi eningayakhanga nihlala nokho kuyo; niyadla ezivinini naseminqumeni eningakutshalanga.

niwayale nithi : Zikhipheleni lapha phakathi kweJordani , endaweni lapho izinyawo zabapristi zazimi khona ziqinile , amatshe ayishumi nambili, niwele nawo, niwabeke endaweni eniyakulala kuyo ebusuku.

Kwathi uJoshuwa esengaseJeriko , waphakamisa amehlo akhe , wabona, bheka, nanso i ndoda malungana naye enenkemba yayo ihoshiwe esandleni sayo; uJoshuwa waya kuyo, wathi kuyo: Uvuna thina noma izitha zethu na?

Yathi: Qha, ngifikile njengesikhulu sebandla likaJehova . UJoshuwa wayesewa ngobuso emhlabathini, wakhuleka, wathi kuyo: Ithini inkosi yami encekwini yayo na?

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

UJoshuwa wathi kulawo madoda amabili ayelihlolile izwe: Ngenani endlini yesifebe, nikhiphe kuyo owesifazane nabo bonke anabo , njengalokho namfungela.

Zonke izikhulu zase zithi kuyo yonke inhlangano : Sifungile kubo uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli; ngalokho asinakubathinta manje.

Izikhulu zase zithi kubo : Mabayekwe baphile ; baba ngabagawuli bemithi nabakhi bamanzi kuyo yonke inhlangano njengalokho izikhulu zazibatshelile.

Ngalokho seniqalekisiwe, akuyikunqamuka ukuvela kini izigqila, abagawuli bemithi nabakhi bamanzi kuyo indlu kaNkulunkulu wami.

UJoshuwa wabenza ngalolo suku abagawuli bemithi nabakhi bamanzi kuyo inhlangano nakulo i -altare likaJehova kuze kube namuhla endaweni abeyakuyikhetha.

Bhekani, ngiyakubavusa endaweni enithengisile kuyo ngabo , ngibuyisele ekhanda lenu isenzo senu.

ONadabi no-Abihu amadodana ka-Aroni bathatha bobabili imicengezi yabo yomlilo, bafaka umlilo kuyo , babeka impepho phezulu , banikela phambi kukaJehova ngomlilo ongafanele, angabayalanga ngawo.

Yilowo nalowo othinta noma intoni ahlala kuyo uyakuhlanza izingubo zakhe, ageze ngamanzi, abe ngongcolile kuze kuhlwe.

Uma kusembhedeni noma kukuyiphi into ahlala kuyo , nxa kuthintwa ngumuntu, yena uyakuhlala engcolile kuze kuhlwe.

Uma indoda ilala naye, ukungcola kwakhe kube kuyo, iyakuba ngengcolile izinsuku eziyisikhombisa ; nayo yonke imibhede alala kuyo iyakuba ngengcolile.

Yonke imibhede alala kuyo ocucuzayo iyakuba ngen gcolile; nezinto zonke ahlala kuzo ziyakuba ngezingcolile.

Ohlala entweni ahlale kuyo ocucuzayo uyakuhlanza izingubo zakhe , ageze ngamanzi, abe ngongcolile kuze kuhlwe.

Yisho kuyo yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, uthi kuyo : Niyakuba ngcwele, ngokuba mina Jehova uNkulunkulu wenu ngingcwele.

Uma ongcwelisa insimu ethanda ngempela ukuyihlenga , uyakuthasisela kuyo okwesihlanu kwemali yokulinganisa kwakho, iqiniswe kuye.

Abesethabatha kuyo, anikele ngomnikelo wakhe ube ngumnikelo womlilo kuJehova, amanoni asibekela izibilini nawo onke amanoni aphezu kwezibilini,

njengalokho kwasuswa kuyo inkunzi yomhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula , umpristi akushise e-altare lomnikelo wokushiswa.

Uma-ke yonke inhlangano yakwa -Israyeli iduka , leyo nto isitheke emehlweni ebandla, benza noma yikuphi kuyo yonke imiyalo uJehova ayale ngakho ukuthi akunakwenziwa, baze babe necala,

Abesethabatha kuyo onke amanoni, awashise e-altare.

Yisho kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli, uthi: U ma umuntu ona kungengamabomu kuyo imiyalo uJehova ayale ngayo ukuthi akunakwenziwa akwenze noma yikuphi,

Nxa kona induna , yenza kungengamabomu nom a yikuphi kuyo yonke imiyalo uJehova uNkulunkulu wayo ayale ngakho ukuthi akunakwenziwa , ize ibe necala,

Uma kona umuntukazana , enza kungengamabomu noma yikuphi kuyo imiyalo uJehova ayale ngakho ukuthi akunakwenziwa, aze abe necala,

Uma umuntu ona, enza noma yikuphi kuyo imiyalo uJehova ayale ngakho ukuthi akunakwenziwa, noma ebengakwazi, unecala nokho, futhi wothwala ububi bakhe.

Yisho ku -Aroni nakumadodana akhe , uthi: Nanku umthetho weminikelo yesono; endaweni ohlatshelwe kuyo umnikelo wokushiswa , mawuhlatshelwe khona umnikelo wesono phambi kukaJehova; ungcwelengcwele.

Endaweni abahlabela kuyo umnikelo wokushiswa , bayakuwuhlabela khona umnikelo wecala, kufafazwe i-altare nxazonke ngegazi lawo.

UMose wayesethi kuyo inhlangano : Nansi into uJehova ayale ngayo ukuba yenziwe.

Bophelani enqoleni ihhashi elinejubane , nina enakhileyo eLakishi ; lona lalingukuqala kwezono kuyo indodakazi yaseSiyoni , ngokuba iziphambeko zakwa-Israyeli zafunyanwa kuwe.

Suka ubhule , ndodakazi yaseSiyoni , ngokuba ngiyakwenza uphondo lwakho lube yinsimbi , nezinselo zakho ngizenze insimbi ; uyakuchoboza abantu abaningi, kwahlukaniselwe uJehova inzuzo yabo, nemfuyo yabo kuyo iNkosi yomhlaba wonke.

silethe ulibo lomgqakazo wethu , neminikelo yethu yokuphakanyiswa , nezithelo zemithi yezinhlobo zonke , newayini namafutha kubapristi emakamelweni endlu kaNkulunkulu wethu, nokweshumi komhlabathi wethu kumaLevi, ngokuba wona amaLevi amukela okweshumi emizini yonke esilima kuyo.

Ngalolo suku kwafundwa encwadini kaMose ezindlebeni zabantu ; kwafunyanwa kulotshiwe kuyo ukuthi owakwa-Amoni nowakwaMowabi abanakungena ebandleni likaNkulunkulu kuze kube phakade,

kepha uma n ibuyela kimi , nigcine imiyalo yami , niyenze, noma abaxoshiweyo benu bebe semajukujukwini ezulu , ngiyakubabutha lapho nokho, ngibayise endaweni engiyikhethe ukubeka igama lami kuyo.

kanye nencwadi ku -Asafa umlindihlathi lenkosi ukuba anginike imithi yemishayo yamasango enqaba ehlangene nethempeli , neyongange lomuzi , neyendlu engiyakungena kuyo . Inkosi yanginika lokhu ngokwesandla esihle sikaNkulunkulu wami esasiphezu kwami.

Kwakulotshwe kuyo ukuthi: Kuzwakele ezizweni, naye uGashimu uthi wena nabaJuda nihlose ukuhlubuka, okungalokho uvusa ugange, ube yinkosi yabo; yebo, anjalo amazwi.

UNkulunkulu wami wabeka enhlizi yweni yami ukuba ngibuthe abakhulu , nababusi, nabantu, ukuze babhalwe ngezizukulwane . Ngafumana incwadi yezizukulwane zabakhuphuka kuqala, ngafumana kulotshiwe kuyo ukuthi:

nokuthi izwe abakhe kulo linjani , noma lihle noma libi , nokuthi imizi abahlala kuyo injani, noma ngamakamu noma yizinqaba,

Mina Jehova ngikh ulumile; ngiyakwenza lokho ngempela kuyo yonke le nhlangano embi engihlanganyeleyo; kuleli hlane bayakuqedwa, bafele khona.

bakhuluma kuyo yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, bathi: Izwe esalidabula ukulihlola liyizwe elihle kakhulu.

thabathani, kube yilowo nalowo umcengezi wakhe womlilo , nibeke impepho kuyo, nilethe phambi kukaJehova kube yilowo nalowo umcengezi wakhe, imicengezi yomlilo engamakhulu amabili namashumi ayisihlanu , nawe futhi no-Aroni, kube yilowo nalowo umcengezi wakhe.

Base bethatha , kwaba yilowo nalowo umcengezi wakhe womlilo , bafaka kuyo umlilo , babeka impepho ngaphezulu , bema ngasemnyango wetende lokuhlangana kanye noMose no-Aroni.

UKora wahlanganisela kubo yonke inhlangano ngasemny ango wetende lokuhlangana; inkazimulo kaJehova yabonakala kuyo yonke inhlangano.

Yisho kuyo inhlangano , uthi: Khuphukani ngasekamu likaKora nelikaDathani nelika-Abiramu.

Wayesekhuluma kuyo inhlangano , wathi: Ake nisuke ematendeni alaba bantu ababi, ningathinti lutho olwabo, funa niqedwe ngezono zabo zonke.

UMose wathi ku -Aroni: Thatha umcengezi wakho womlilo , ubeke kuwo umlilo wase -altare, ufake impepho ngaph ezulu, ukuyise masinyane kuyo inhlangano, uyenzele ukubuyisana, ngokuba kuphume intukuthelo kuJehova; isifo sesiqalile.

nifake kuyo umlilo , nibeke impepho kuyo phambi kukaJehova kusasa ; kuyakuthi umuntu amkhethayo uJehova , abengcwele; sekwanele okwenu , madodana kaLevi.

Kubantwana bakwa -Asheri, izizukulwane zabo ngemindeni yabo nangezindlu zawoyise njengokomumo wamagama , kusukela kwabaneminyaka engamashumi amabili kuyo phezulu , bonke abangaphuma impi:

Yileyo eyimindeni yabakwaRubeni; ababalwayo kuyo babe yizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane nantathu namakhulu ayisikhombisa namashumi amathathu.

Wokhuluma kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli ngokuthi : U ma umuntu efa engenandodana, wolidlulisela ifa lakhe kuyo indodakazi yakhe.

Yala abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba banike amaLevi kulo izwe eliyifa labo imizi ukuba ahlale kuyo; niyakunika amaLevi namadlelo emizi nxazonke.

Imizi ayakuhlala kuyo, amadlelo awo abe ngawezinkomo zawo, nawempahla yawo, nawezilwane zonke zawo.

Imizi eniyakuyinika amaLevi iyakuba yimizi eyisithupha yokuphephela , eniyakuyinika umbulali ukuba abalekele kuyo ; ngaphandle kwayo niyakuwanika imizi engamashumi amane nambili.

Mayelana nemizi eniyakuyinika nithathe kulo izwe labantwana bakwa - Israyeli, kwabaningi nithathe eminingi , kwabayingcosana nithathe eyingcosana, yilowo nalowo anike amaLevi ngokuthatha kuyo imizi yakhe njengefa lakhe alidlayo.

babeke kuyo zonke izinto zalo abakhon za ngazo kulo , imicengezi yempepho, nezimfoloko, namafosholo, nezitsha, nezinto zonke ze -altare, bendlale phezu kwazo isimbozo sesikhumba samatahasi, bafake izinti zalo.

Etafuleni lezinkwa zokubukwa bayakwendlala indwangu eluhlaza , babeke kuyo izingqwembe, nezinkezo, nezinkamba, nezindebe zokuthela; nesinkwa esinganqamukiyo siyakuba phezu kwalo.

indoda iyakuletha umkayo kumpristi , imlethele umnikelo wakhe , ube ngokweshumi kwe-efa lempuphu yebhali , angatheli mafutha kuyo, angabeki nanhlaka kuyo , ngokuba kungumnikelo w empuphu wesikhwele , umnikelo wempuphu wesikhumbuzo sokukhumbuza ngobubi.

Wathi: Mangifumane umusa emehlweni akho, nkosi, ngokuba ungiduduzile nangokuba ukhulume kahle kuyo incekukazi yakho , noma ngingenjengenye yezincekukazi zakho.

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

Base bethatha , bathi kuyo ingelosi kaJehova eyayimi phakathi kwemibomvana: Sihambahambile emhlabeni; bheka, wonke umhlaba uhlezi uthule.

Ngathi kuyo ingelosi eyayikhuluma nami : Ziyini lezi ? Yathi kimi : Lezi ziyizimpondo ezihlakazile oJuda, no-Israyeli, neJerusalema.

yathi kuyo: Gijima ukhulume kule nsizwa ukuthi iJerusalema liyakwakhiwa njengemizi engenanzingange ngenxa yobuningi babant u nezinkomo okuphakathi kwalo.

Ngase ngithatha , ngithi kuyo : Iyini le minqumo emibili ngakwesokunene sothi lwezibani nangakwesokhohlo salo na?

Ngathatha ngokwesibili, ngathi kuyo : Ayini lawa magatsha amabili eminqumo aseceleni kwemibhobho emibili y egolide, athululwa ngayo amafutha egolide na?

Ngathatha ngasho kuyo ingelosi eyayikhuluma n ami, ngathi: Ziyini lezi , nkosi?

Ngase ngithi kuyo ingelosi eyayikhuluma nami: Laba baliyisaphi i-efa na?

Ngase ngithatha, ngithi kuyo ingelosi eyayikhuluma nami: Ayini lana, nkosi?

Kepha angisayikuba njalo kuyo insali yalaba bantu njengasezinsukwini zakuqala, usho uJehova Sebawoti.

Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uthi: Ukuzila kwenyanga yesine, nokuzila kweyesihlanu, nokuzila kweyesikhombisa , nokuzila kweyeshumi kuyakuba ngukujabula nokuthokoza nemikhosi emihle kuyo indlu yakwaJuda; thandani iqiniso nokuthula.

Nginqumile izizwe, imibhoshongo yazo yasezingosini ichithekile; ngichithile izitaladi zazo ukuze kungadluli muntu ; imizi yazo iqothuliwe ukuze kungabikho muntu, kungabikho ohlala kuyo.

Yonke imifula iyangena elwandle , kepha ulwandle alugcwali; endaweni eya kuyo imifula, ibuye iye khona njalo.

Ngokuba izwi lenkosi liyabusa; ngubani ongasho kuyo ukuthi: Wenzani na?

Ngabona konke lokho , ngabeka inhliziyo yami kuyo yonke imisebenzi eyenziwa phansi kwelanga ngesikhathi lapho umuntu ebusa omunye kube ngukulimala kwakhe.
