Inkonzo yethempeli elisha

Wathi kimi: Ndodana yomuntu, lokhu kuyindawo yesihlalo sami sobukhosi, nendawo yamathe ezinyawo zami , lapho ngiyakuhla la khona phakathi kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli kuze kube phakade ; indlu yakwa -Israyeli ayisayikulingcolisa igama lami elingcwele , yona namakhosi ayo , ngokuphinga kwayo nangezidumbu zamakhosi ayo ezindaweni zayo eziphakemeyo,

Niyakwazi ukuthi nginguJehova , lapho ababuleweyo babo beyakuba phakathi kwezithombe zabo nxa zonke zama-altare abo kuwo onke amagquma aphakemeyo, nakuzo zonke iziqongo zezintaba , naphansi kwayo yonke imithi eluhlaza, naphansi kwawo onke ama -oki adumbileyo, izindawo lapho bebenikela khona ngephunga elimnandi kuzo zonke izithombe zabo.

Kwamanye washo ezindlebeni zami , wathi: Dabulani emzini emva kwayo , nibulale, iso lenu lingahawukeli, ningabi nabubele,

Bayiziphingi bonke ; banjengeziko elishiswa ngumphekisinkw a oyeka ukukhwezela kusukela ekuxovweni kwenhlama kuze kube sekubileni kwayo.

Ngiyakumisa phezu kwayo abelusi abayakuyalusa ; ayisayikwesaba, ayiyikuphela amandla, ayisayikujeziswa, usho uJehova.

Ngokuba walaphula ijoka lakho endulo , wazigqabula izibopho zakho , wathi: Angiyikukhonza. Ngokuba kuwo onke amagquma aphakemey o naphansi kwayo yonke imithi eluhlaza walala njengesifebe.

nembongolo yasendle ejwayele ihlane , esezela umoya ngokukhanuka kwayo; ngubani ongavimbela inkanuko yayo na ? Bonke abayifunayo abayikukhathala, bayakuyifumana ngenyanga yayo.

Ungesabi wena Jakobe , nceku yami , usho uJehova , U ngapheli amandla, Israyeli, ngokuba bheka , ngiyakukusindisa usekude , nenzalo yakho ezweni lokuthunjwa kwayo; uJakobe uyakubuya, aphumule, agcineke, angesatshiswa muntu.

Inkosi yayihlezi endlini yobusika ngenyanga yesishiyagalolunye , iziko elivuthayo liphambi kwayo.

Yazi kuphela ububi bakh o ukuthi uphambukile kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho, wazihlakaza izindlela zakho kubo abezizw e phansi kwayo yonke imithi eluhlaza; anililalelanga izwi lami, usho uJehova.

UJehova wathi kimi emihleni kaJosiya inkosi : Ubonile okwenziwe ngu - Israyeli ohlehlayo na ? Ukhuphukele kuzo zonke izintaba eziphakemeyo naphansi kwayo yonke imithi eluhlaza, wafeba 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

Kepha unges abi wena Jakobe , nceku yami, ungapheli amandla , Israyeli, ngokuba bheka , ngiyakukusindisa usekude , nenzalo yakho ezweni lokuthunjwa kwayo; uJakobe uyakubuya, aphumule, agcineke, angesatshiswa muntu.

Inkemba ifike phezu kwamahhashi alo , naphezu kwezinqola zalo, naphezu kwayo yonke ingxubevange yabantu ephakathi kwalo, babe njengabesifazane; inkemba ifike phezu kwengcebo yalo, ize iphangwe.

Imbongolo yasendle iyakhala yini inotshani na? Inkabi iyakhonya isekudleni kwayo na?

Kepha uma amanzi ethelwa embewini, izidumbu zazo ziwele phezu kwayo, ingcolile kini.

Uma isifo sibuye siqhamuka endlin i emva kokukhishwa kwamatshe nasemva kokuphalwa kwendlu nasemva kokunamekwa kwayo,

u-Aroni abeke izandla zakhe zombili enhloko yempongo ezwayo , avume phezu kwayo bonke ububi babantwana bakwa -Israyeli neziphambeko ezonweni zabo zonke , akubeke enhloko yempongo , ayithume ngesandla somuntu olungiselwe lokhu, iye ehlane,

Nanxa senifikile ezweni , nitshale imithi eyizinhlobonhlobo edliwayo , anothi izithelo zayo zingukungasoki kwayo ; iminyaka emithathu iyakuba njengengasokiwe kini: mazingadliwa.

Uma umuntu eyakumngcwelisela uJehova inxenye yensimu yefa lakhe , ukulinganisa kwakho kuyakuba njengokuhlwanyelwa kwayo, ukuhlwanyelwa kwehomere lebhali kube ngamashekeli angamashumi ayisihlanu esiliva.

Kepha insimu ekuphumeni kwayo ngejubili iyakuba ngcwele kuJehova njengensimu eyahlukaniswayo; iyakuba yifa lompristi.

Kwathi ngenyanga kaNisani ngomnyaka wamashumi amabili ka - Aritahishashita inkosi , iwayini liphambi kwakhe , ngaliphakamisa iwayini , ngalinika inkosi. Ngangingazange ngibiphe phambi kwayo.

Inkosi yathi kimi, inkosikazi ihlezi eceleni kwayo: Uhambo lwakho luyakuba yisikhathi esingakanani , nokubuya kuyakuba nini na ? Kwaba kuhle -ke enkosini ukuvuma ukuba ngihambe; ngayitshela isikhathi esithile.

Kuzo zonke izipho zenu niyakunikela ngayo yonke iminikelo yokuphakanyiswa kuJehova , konke okuhle kwayo , inxenye yayo engcwelisiweyo.

Ngalokho uyakusho kubo ukuthi : Nxa niphakamisa okuhle kwayo , kuyakubalelwa amaLevi njengokwanda kwesibuya nokwanda kwesikhamo sewayini.

ummise ngaphambi kuka -Eleyazare umpristi naphambi kwayo yonke inhlangano, umnike isikhundla emehlweni abo.

Ema phambi kuk aMose naphambi kuka -Eleyazare umpristi , naphambi kwezikhulu, naphambi kwayo yonke inhlangano ngasemnyango wetende lokuhlangana, athi:

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

Yathatha yasho kwababemi phambi kwayo , yathi: Mkhumuleni izingubo ezingcolileyo. Kuyena yathi : Bheka, ngidedisile kuwe ububi bakho ; ngiyakukwembathisa ezobukhosi.

Ngiyakunquma inqola kwa -Efrayimi nehhashi eJerusalema , nomnsalo wokulwa uyakunqunywa ; iyakukhuluma ukuthula kwabezizwe , nokubusa kwayo kuyakusukela elwandle kuze kufike elwandle, kusukela eMfuleni kuze kufike emajukujukwini omhlaba.

Kungcono ukuphela kwendaba kunokuqala kwayo ; onomoya obekezelayo ungcono kunoziphakamisayo.

kepha kwafunyanwa kuwo indoda empofu ehlakaniphileyo ; yawukhulula umuzi ngokuhlakanipha kwayo, kodwa nokho akakho okhumbula leyo ndoda empofu.
