1
1 Eyakhe indlu uSolomon wayakha iminyaka elishumi elinamithathu, wayigqiba indlu yakhe yonke.
2 Kuba wakha nendlu yehlathi laseLebhanon: yalikhulu leekubhite ubude bayo, yangamashumi amahlanu eekubhite ububanzi bayo, yangamashumi amathathu eekubhite ukuphakama kwayo, phezu kwemikrozo emine yeentsika zomsedare, ezinemiqadi echweliweyo yemisedare phezu kweentsika ezo.
3 Yafulelwa ngemisedare phezulu, phezu kwamagumbi abe ephezu kweentsika ezingamashumi amane anantlanu; aba lishumi elinantlanu lukrozweni lunye.
4 Imiqadi ibiyimikrozo emithathu, ikroba likhangelene nekroba kathathu.
5 Zonke iingcango nemigubasi yayimbombo-ne, iyimithi; ikroba lilunge nekroba kathathu.
6 Wenza ivaranda yeentsika: yaziikubhite ezimashumi mahlanu ubude bayo, neekubhite ezimashumi mathathu ububanzi bayo, zinevaranda engaphambi kwazo, neentsika nezinyuko phambi kwazo.
7 Wenza nevaranda yetrone, apho abethetha khona amatyala, iyivaranda yamatyala, wayifulela ngemisedare, ethabathela komnye umgangatho wesa komnye umgangatho.
8 Indlu yakhe abehlala kuyo, ekwenye intendelezo phakathi ngasevarandeni, yasetyenzwa kwangokunjalo. Wayenzela indlu intombi kaFaro, awayizekayo uSolomon, yanjengaloo varanda.
9 Zonke ezo zinto bezizezamatye anqabileyo, aqingqwe ngokomlinganiso, asarhiweyo ngeesarha, ngaphakathi nangaphandle; ethabathela esisekweni esa elungqwini, ethabathela nangaphandle esa entendelezweni enkulu.
10 Useko lwalungamatye anqabileyo, amatye amakhulu, amatye eekubhite ezilishumi, amatye eekubhite ezisibhozo.
11 Ngaphezulu yabe ingamatye anqabileyo, aqingqwe ngokomlinganiso, nemisedare.
12 Intendelezo enkulu ejikelezayo yayineengcamba ezintathu zamatye aqingqiweyo, nocamba lwemisedare echweliweyo; njengentendelezo engaphakathi yendlu kaYehova, nevaranda yendlu layo.
13 Wathumela ukumkani uSolomon, wathabatha uHuram eTire.
14 Yena ebengunyana womhlolokazi wesizwe sakwaNafetali, uyise ebengumTire, ingcibi yobhedu; wayezele bubulumko nayingqondo, nakukwazi ukwenza yonke imisebenzi yobhedu. Weza ke kukumkani, kuSolomon, wayenza yonke imisebenzi yakhe.
15 Wayila iintsika zambini zobhedu: zalishumi elinesibhozo iikubhite ukuphakama kwentsika inye, nomtya oziikubhite ezilishumi elinambini ukuthandela intsika inye.
16 Wenza iingqukuva zambini ngobhedu olutyhidiweyo, zokubekwa emantloko eentsika ezo: ukuphakama kwengqukuva enye kuziikubhite ezintlanu, ukuphakama kwengqukuva yesibini kuziikubhite ezintlanu.
17 Wenza iminatha, umsebenzi onguphinyephinye, nezidanga, umsebenzi osontelwe ezingqukuveni, ezisemantloko eentsika ezo: yasixhenxe kwenye ingqukuva, yasixhenxe kweyesibini ingqukuva.
18 Wenza ke iirharnate, imikrozo emibini yokuwujikeleza omnye umnatha, yokugubungela iingqukuva ezisemantloko eentsika, wenjenjalo nakweyesibini ingqukuva.
19 Iingqukuva ezisemantloko eentsika ezo zibe zingumsebenzi oyinyibiba, ngokwevaranda, ziziikubhite ezine;
20 iingqukuva ezisezintsikeni ezo zombini wazenza nangaphezulu, kufuphi nesisu esalekwe ngomnatha, neerharnate ezimakhulu mabini, zikrozile zajikeleza engqukuveni yesibini.
21 Wazimisa iintsika evarandeni yetempile, wayimisa intsika yasekunene, wathi igama layo nguZinzisayo; wayimisa intsika yasekhohlo, wathi igama layo nguMandlakuye.
22 Phezu kweentloko zeentsika ezo bekukho umsebenzi weenyibiba. Wagqitywa ke umsebenzi weentsika.
23 Wenza ulwandle olutyhidiweyo: lwaziikubhite ezilishumi ukusuka kolunye udini lwalo, kuyiwe kolunye udini lwalo, luyinqila ngeenxa zonke, lwaziikubhite ezintlanu ukuphakama kwalo; kwajikeleza kulo umtya oziikubhite ezimashumi mathathu ngeenxa zonke.
24 Ngaphantsi kodini lwalo ngeenxa zonke yangamathangazana alishumi kubhitini-nye, azunguleza ulwandle olo ngeenxa zonke; eyimikrozo emibini amathangazana, athyidwa nalo ekutyhidweni kwalo.
25 Lwema phezu kweenkomo ezilishumi elinambini: ezintathu zibheke entla, ezintathu zibheke entshonalanga, ezintathu zibheke ezantsi, ezintathu zibheke empumalanga; ulwandle lubekwe kuzo ngaphezulu, imiva yazo zonke isinge phakathi.
26 Ubungqingqwa balo bebungangobubanzi besandla; udini lwalo belwenziwe lwanjengodini lwendebe, lwaneentyantyambo zeenyibiba; lulingene amawaka amabini eebhate.
27 Wenza iingqwelwana zalishumi ngobhedu; baziikubhite ezine ubude benqwelwana inye, baziikubhite ezine ububanzi bayo, kwaziikubhite ezintathu ukuphakama kwayo.
28 Kwakunje ukwenziwa kwenqwelwana: zazineepanele phakathi kwemiqhele;
29 naphezu kweepanele eziphakathi kwemiqhele ibiziingonyama neenkomo neekerubhi; naphezu kwemiqhele bekukho useko ngaphezulu; ngaphantsi kweengonyama neenkomo bekukho izidanga, umsebenzi ojingayo.
30 Inqwelwana inye yabe ineevili ezine zobhedu, neeasi zobhedu; iinyawo zazo zozine zazinamagxa; ngaphantsi kwezitya zokuhlambela ingamagxa lawo atyhidiweyo, ngaphaya kwelinye ibizizidanga.
31 Umlomo wayo ubusesazulwini sesiciko, uyikubhite ukuphakama kwawo; umlomo wesiciko uyinqila, senziwe ngokwenziwa koseko; siyikubhite enesiqingatha sekubhite ububanzi; nasemlonyeni waso kwakukho imikrolo; iipanele zaso zazimbombo-ne, azaba zinqila.
32 Ngaphantsi kweepanele yabe iziivili ezine, iiasi zeevili ezo bezimi enqwelwaneni; ukuphakama kwevili kwakuyikubhite nesiqingatha sekubhite.
33 Ukwenziwa kweevili bekunjengokwenziwa kweevili zeenqwelo zonke; iiasi zazo, neefeleni zazo, nezipeki zazo, neenafu zazo, zibe zityhidiwe zonke.
34 Amagxa omane abesezimbombeni zone zenqwelwana, emilile enqwelwaneni amagxa lawo.
35 Emphezulwini wenqwelwana kwakukho inqila ngeenxa zonke; ukuphakama kwawo kusisiqingatha sekubhite; phezu komphezulu wenqwelwana kwaphuma izinto zokubamba neepanele.
36 Emacebeni azo okubamba, nasezipaneleni zawo, wakrola iikerubhi neengonyama namasundu, ngangebala lalo elinye, nezidanga ngeenxa zonke.
37 Wenjenjalo ukuzenza iinqwelwana ezilishumi: waba mnye umtyhido, waba mnye umlinganiso, kwaba kunye ukubonakala kwazo zonke.
38 Wenza ke izitya zokuhlambela zalishumi ngobhedu; sisinye isitya sokuhlambela salingana amashumi amane eebhate: sisinye isitya sokuhlambela siziikubhite ezine; sasisitya sokuhlambela enqwelwaneni kuzo zoshumi.
39 Wabeka iinqwelwana zantlanu ngecala lokunene layo indlu, wabeka zantlanu ngecala lasekhohlo layo indlu; walubeka ulwandle ngecala lokunene layo indlu, lwabheka empumalanga malunga ezantsi.
40 UHuram wazenza nezitya zokuhlambela, nemihlakulwana, nezitya zokutshiza. UHuram wagqiba ke ukuwenza wonke umsebenzi abewenzela ukumkani uSolomon, wendlu kaYehova:
41 iintsika zombini, neembumba zeengqukuva ebezisemantloko eentsika ezo zombini, neminatha yomibini yokuzunguleza iimbumba zombini zeengqukuva ebezisemantloko eentsika;
42 neerharnate ezimakhulu mane zeminatha yomibini: imikrozo emibini yeerharnate kumnatha umnye yokuzunguleza iimbumba ezimbini zeengqukuva, ezibe zisezintsikeni;
43 neenqwelwana ezilishumi, nezitya zokuhlambela ezilishumi ezinqwelwaneni;
44 nolwandle olunye, neenkomo ezilishumi elinambini ngaphantsi kolwandle olo;
45 neembiza, nemihlakulwana, nezitya zokutshiza, neempahla zonke. Zizo ezo izinto uHuram awazenzela ukumkani uSolomon, zendlu kaYehova; bezizezo bhedu olubengezelayo.
46 Ukumkani wazityhidela emmandleni weYordan, emhlabeni oludongwe, phakathi kweSukoti neTsaretan.
47 Waziyeka uSolomon zonke iimpahla zingalinganiswanga, ngokuba bezizininzi kakhulu kunene; abafumaneka ubunzima bobhedu olo.
48 Wazenza ke uSolomon zonke iimpahla zendlu kaYehova: isibingelelo segolide, netafile yegolide ebezikuyo izonka zokubonisa;
49 neziphatho zezibane zegolide ethe shinyi: zazihlanu ngasekunene, zazihlanu ngasekhohlo, phambi kwendawo yezihlabo; neentyantyambo, nezibane, nezifinyiso zegolide,
50 nezitya, nezitshetshe, nezitya zokutshiza, neenkamba, neengcedevu zegolide ethe shinyi, neehinjizi zegolide zeengcango zendlu engaphakathi, eyingcwele kangcwele, nezeengcango zendlu elibhotwe.
51 Wagqitywa ke wonke umsebenzi, abewenzela indlu kaYehova ukumkani uSolomon. Wazingenisa uSolomon zonke Izinto, abezingcwalisile uDavide uyise, isilivere negolide, wazibeka iimpahla ezo endaweni yobuncwane bendlu kaYehova.

Chapter 3
1 Ehlani, maGalati aswele ukuqonda! Ngubani na oninyangileyo, ukuba ningayithambeli nje inyaniso, ebethe nje phambi kwamehlo enu uYesu Kristu wabhalwa, wabhegezwa phakathi kwenu, ebethelelwe emnqamlezweni?
2 Ndithanda ukukha ndiqonde kuni le ndawo yodwa: Namamkela uMoya emisebenzini yomthetho, namamkela ezindabeni zokholo, kusini na?
3 Ninje na ukuswela ukuqonda? Nakuba niqale kuMoya, ngoku nigqibela kwinyama na?
4 Izinto ezinzima kangaka nafumana naziva na? ukuba kanti benifumana nisenza.
5 Lowo ngoko uniphayo uMoya, usebenza imisebenzi yamandla kuni, ukwenza oko ngokwasemisebenzini yomthetho, ukwenza ngokwasezindabeni zokholo, kusini na?
6 njengokuba uAbraham wakholwayo nguThixo, kwaza oko kwabalelwa ebulungiseni kuye.
7 Yazini ngoko ukuba abaselukholweni, ngabo abo abangoonyana baka-Abraham.
8 Isibhalo, sibona ke ngenxa engaphambili ukuba uThixo uyazigwebela iintlanga ngokwaselukholweni, sazishumayela ngenxa engaphambili iindaba ezilungileyo kuAbraham, sisithi, Ziya kusikelelelwa kuwe zonke iintlanga.
9 Ngoko ke abaselukholweni bayasikelelwa ndawonye noAbraham okholwayo.
10 Kuba bonke abangabasemisebenzini yomthetho, baphantsi kwesiqalekiso; kuba kubhaliwe kwathiwa, Baqalekisiwe bonke abangahlaliyo ezintweni zonke ezibhaliweyo encwadini yomthetho, ukuba bazenze.
11 Okokuba ke akukho namnye ugwetyelwayo ngomthetho kuye uThixo, kuyabonakala; ngokuba lowo ulilungisa, uya kudla ubomi obuphuma elukholweni.
12 Wona ke umthetho asingowaselukholweni; uthi, umntu owazenzayo ezo zinto uya kudla ubomi ngazo.
13 UKristu wasithenga, wasikhulula esiqalekisweni somthetho, ngokwenziwa isiqalekiso ngenxa yethu (kuba kubhaliwe kwathiwa, Uqalekisiwe wonke umntu oxhonywe emthini);
14 ukuze intsikelelo ka-Abraham ibe sezintlangeni ngoKristu Yesu, ukuze idinga loMoya silamkele ngalo ukholo.
15 Bazalwana, ndithetha ngokwabantu: kwanowomntu umnqophiso ozinzisiweyo, akukho namnye uwutshitshisayo, athi mhlawumbi ongeze kuwo.
16 Enziwa ke kuye uAbraham amadinga, nakuyo imbewu yakhe. Akathi, nakuzo iimbewu, ngathi uthetha ezininzi; usuka ngathi uthetha nye, athi, Nakuyo imbewu yakho: nguKristu ke lowo.
17 Ukutsho ke ndithi, Umnqophiso ozinzisiweyo ngenxa engaphambili nguThixo, usingisele kuKristu, awunakuphangwa igunya ngumthetho, owabakhoyo emva kweminyaka engamakhulu omane anamanci mathathu, ukuze ulibhangise idinga elo.
18 Kuba ilifa elo, ukuba liphuma emthethweni, loba alisaphumi edingeni; ke yena uThixo umbabale uAbraham ngedinga.
19 Uyintoni na ngoko umthetho? Walekelwa ngenxa yezigqitho, ukude ifike imbewu leyo yayibekwe ngedinga; wamiswa ngezithunywa zezulu, sisandla somlamleli.
20 Ke umlamleli akamnye; uThixo ke yena mnye.
21 Umthetho ngoko uchasene na namadinga kaThixo? Nakanye! Kuba, ukuba bekuwiswe umthetho onako ukudlisa ubomi, kuhleliwe nje, ngebuphume emthethweni lowo ubulungisa.
22 Ke sona isibhalo sisuke sazivalela ndawonye izinto zonke phantsi kwesono, ukuze idinga eliphuma ekukholweni kuYesu Kristu linikwe abakholwayo.
23 Ngaphambi ke kokufika kokholo, sasilindwa, siphantsi komthetho, sivalelwe ndawonye kude kufike ukholo olu, lube luza kutyhilwa.
24 Ngoko ke umthetho waba ngosikhaphela kuKristu, ukuze sigwetyelwe ngokwaselukholweni.
25 Lwakuba lufikile ke ukholo, asibi saba phantsi kwamkhapheli.
26 Kuba nina nonke ningoonyana bakaThixo ngako ukukholwa, nikuKristu Yesu;
27 kuba nina nonke, nabhaptizelwayo kuKristu, namambatha uKristu.
28 Akusekho mYuda namGrike; akusekho khoboka nakhululekileyo; akusekho ndoda nankazana; kuba nina nonke nimntu mnye, nikuKristu Yesu.
29 Ukuba ke nina ningabakaKristu, niyimbewu ka-Abraham ngoko, neendlalifa ngokwedinga.

1 Kwathi, xenikweni uSamuweli alixhego, wabamisa oonyana bakhe baba ngabagwebi kumaSirayeli.
2 Igama lonyana wakhe wamazibulo lalinguYoweli, igama lowesibini lalinguAbhiya; bengabagwebi eBher-shebha.
3 Oonyana bakhe abahambanga ngendlela yakhe, banabela inzuzo embi, bamkela izicengo, basijika isigwebo.
4 Aza ahlanganisana onke amadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli, eza kuSamuweli eRama, athi kuye, Uyabona,
5 waluphele wena, oonyana bakho abahambi ngendlela yakho; simisele ngoko ukumkani wokusilawula, njengeentlanga ezi zonke.
6 Laba libi elo zwi emehlweni kaSamuweli, xa bathi, Sinike ukumkani wokusilawula. Wathandaza uSamuweli kuYehova.
7 Wathi uYehova kuSamuweli, Liphulaphule izwi labantu entweni yonke abayithethayo kuwe; ngokuba ingenguwe abamgibileyo, bagibe mna, ukuze ndingabi ngukumkani kubo.
8 Ngokwezenzo zonke abazenzileyo, kuselokwemini endabanyusayo eYiputa kwada kwaba namhla, bandishiya, bakhonza thixo bambi, benjenjalo namhla nakuwe.
9 Liphulaphule ngoko izwi labo; kodwa uze ubaqononondise kakuhle, ubaxelele isiko aya kuphatha ngalo ukumkani oya kuba ngukumkani wabo.
10 Wabaxelela ke uSamuweli abo bantu babebiza ukumkani kuye onke amazwi kaYehova.
11 Wathi, Lilo eli isiko lokumkani oya kuba ngukumkani kuni: Oonyana benu uya kubathabatha abamisele yena ezinqwelweni zakhe zokulwa, nasemahasheni akhe akhwelwayo, babaleke phambi kwenqwelo yakhe;
12 abamisele yena babe ngabathetheli bamawaka, nabathetheli bamashumi ngamahlanu, balime amasimi akhe, bavune ukutya kwakhe, benze iimpahla zakhe zemfazwe neempahla zenqwelo yakhe.
13 Iintombi zenu wozithabatha zibe ngabaqholikazi, nabapheki, nabosi bezonka.
14 Amasimi enu wowathabatha, nezidiliya zenu, nezinquma zenu ezona zilungileyo, azinike abakhonzi bakhe;

Chapter 11
1 Ke kaloku, kwaye kusifa umntu othile, uLazaro waseBhetani, umzi wakulooMariya, noMarta udade wabo.
2 Yaye ke inguloo Mariya, wayithambisayo iNkosi ngamafutha aqholiweyo, wazisulayo iinyawo zayo ngeenwele zakhe, omnakwabo uLazaro wayesifa.
3 Bathumela ngoko oodade babo kuye, besithi, Nkosi, uyabona, lowo umthandayo uyafa.
4 Evile ke uYesu wathi, Esi sifo asiyelele kufeni; singenxa yozuko lukaThixo, ukuze uNyana kaThixo azukiswe ngaso.
5 Ke uYesu wayebathanda ooMarta nomsakwabo noLazaro.
6 Uthe ngoko akuva ukuba uyafa, wakha okunene wahlala kuloo ndawo abekuyo iintsuku ezimbini.
7 Waza emveni koko wathi kubo abafundi, Masibuye siye kwelakwaYuda.
8 Bathi abafundi kuye, Rabhi, amaYuda ebefuna ngoku ukukuxuluba ngamatye nje, ubuya uye khona na?
9 Waphendula uYesu wathi, Akalishumi elinamabini na amaxa emini? Ukuba umntu uthi ahambe emini, akakhubeki; ngokuba elubona ukhanyiselo lweli hlabathi.
10 Ke ukuba umntu uthi ahambe ebusuku, uyakhubeka; ngokuba ukukhanya kungekho kuye.
11 Wazithetha ezi zinto; aze emveni koko athi kubo, ULazaro, umhlobo wethu, ulele; ndiyaya ukuba ndimvuse.
12 Bathi ngoko abafundi bakhe, Nkosi, ukuba ulele, wosinda.
13 Ke yena uYesu ubethetha ukufa kwakhe. Bona ke bebeba uthetha ngokulala ubuthongo.
14 Wandula ngoku uYesu wathi kubo ngokungafihilisiyo, ULazaro ufile.
15 Ndiyavuya ke ngenxa yenu, ukuba ndibe ndingekho khona, ukuze nikholwe. Noko ke masiye kuye.
16 Uthe ngoko uTomas, okuthiwa nguDidimo, kubafundi kunye naye, Masiye nathi, ukuze sife naye.
17 Efikile ngoko uYesu, wafika eselesengcwabeni iintsuku zone.
18 (Ke kaloku iBhetani ibikufuphi neYerusalem, umgama wayo uzizitadiya ezingathi zilishumi elinazihlanu.)
19 Kwakufike abaninzi bakumaYuda, kwabo babenoMarta noMariya, ukuze babakhuze ngaye umnakwabo.
20 Akuva ngoko uMarta ukuba uYesu uyeza, wamhlangabeza; ke yena uMariya wahlala endlwini.
21 Wathi ngoko uMarta kuYesu, Nkosi, ukuba ubulapha, umnakwethu ange engafanga.
22 Nangoku ndiyazi ukuba, ongathi ukucele kuThixo, oko wokunika uThixo.
23 Athi kuye uYesu, Umnakwenu uya kubuya avuke.
24 Athi uMarta kuye, Ndiyazi ukuba uya kubuya avuke eluvukweni, ngomhla wokugqibela.
25 Wathi uYesu kuye, Ndim uvuko, ndim ubomi; lowo ukholwayo kum, nokuba ubethe wafa, wodla ubomi.
26 Bonke abadla ubomi bekholwa kum, abasayi kufa naphakade; uyakholwa na koko?
27 Athi kuye, Ewe, Nkosi, mna ndiyakholwa ukuba wena unguye uKristu, uNyana kaThixo, lowo uzayo ehlabathini.
28 Waza etshilo wemka, waya wabiza uMariya umsakwabo ngasese, wathi, UMfundisi ukho, uyakubiza.
29 Uthi yena, akuva oko, asuke kamsinya eze kuye.
30 (Ke kaloku, uYesu ebengekangeni phakathi komzi; wayesekuloo ndawo uMarta wamhlangabeza ekuyo.)
31 Athe ngoko amaYuda abenaye endlwini emkhuza, akumbona uMariya, ukuba usuke kamsinya waphuma, amlandela esithi, Uya engcwabeni, ukuya kulila khona.
32 UMariya ngoko, akufika apho uYesu ebekhona, akumbona, wawa ezinyaweni zakhe, esithi kuye, Nkosi, ukuba ubulapha, ange engafanga umnakwethu.
33 Uthe ngoko uYesu, akumbona elila, namaYuda abeze naye elila, wafutheka, wakhathazeka.
34 Wathi, Nimbeke phi na? Bathi kuye, Nkosi, yiza ubone.
35 UYesu walila.
36 Ayesithi ngoko amaYuda, Yabonani ke ukumthanda kwakhe!
37 Ke abathile kuwo bathi, Ubengenako na lo, wawavulayo amehlo emfama, ukwenza ukuba nalo angafi?
38 Abuye ke uYesu afutheke ngaphakathi kwakhe, eze engcwabeni. Laye ke lingumqolomba, kubekwe ilitye kuwo.
39 Athi uYesu, Lisuseni ilitye. Athi kuye uMarta, udade wofileyo, Nkosi, uselenuka, kuba untsuku-ne efile.
40 Athi uYesu kuye, Anditshongo na kuwe ukuthi, Ukuba uthe wakholwa, wolubona uzuko lukaThixo?
41 Balisusa ngoko ilitye apho abelele khona ofileyo. Wawaphakamisa ke amehlo uYesu, wakhangela phezulu, wathi, Bawo, ndiyabulela kuwe kuba undivile.
42 Mna ke bendisazi ukuba uhleli undiva; ke nditsho ngenxa yesihlwele esixhonteleyo, ukuze bakholwe ukuba wena wandithuma.
43 Etshilo ke, wadanduluka ngezwi elikhulu, wathi, Lazaro, phuma.
44 Waphuma ofileyo, ebotshiwe iinyawo nezandla ngezithandelo, nobuso bakhe bujikelwe ngeqhiya. Athi kubo uYesu, Mkhululeni, nimyeke ahambe.
45 Ithe ngoko into eninzi kumaYuda, ebize kuMariya, yakuzibona izinto azenzileyo uYesu, yakholwa kuye.
46 Ke abathile kuwo bemka baya kubaFarisi, babaxelela izinto azenzileyo uYesu.
47 Bahlanganisa ngoko ababingeleli abakhulu nabaFarisi intlanganiso yamatyala, bathi, Senza ntoni na? Ngokuba lo mntu wenza imiqondiso emininzi.
48 Ukuba sithe samyeka ngokunje, bonke baya kukholwa kuye; athi ke amaRoma eze, athimbe indawo yethu, kwanohlanga lwethu.
49 Ke kaloku omnye wabo, uKayafa, engumbingeleli omkhulu ngaloo mnyaka, wathi kubo, Anazi nto nina;
50 kananjalo aniqondi ukuba kusilungele, ukuba kufe umntu abe mnye ngenza yabantu, ukuze lungatshabalali uhlanga luphela.
51 Oku ke akakuthethanga kuphuma kuye; wathi, kuba ebengumbingeleli omkhulu ngaloo mnyaka, waprofeta ukuba uYesu uza kulufela uhlanga;
52 kungabi ngenxa yohlanga olo lodwa, kube ngenxa yabantwana bakaThixo abalusali, ukuba abahlanganisele ndawonye.
53 Kususela kuloo mini ngoko babhunga ukuba bambulale.
54 Ngoko uYesu akabanga sahamba ekuhleni phakathi kwamaYuda; wasuka wemka apho, waya ezweni elikufuphi nentlango, emzini ekuthiwa kukwaEfrayim; walibala khona apho nabafundi bakhe.
55 Ke kaloku yayikufuphi ipasika yamaYuda; kwenyuka into eninzi iphuma kwelo zwe, yaya eYerusalem phambi kwayo ipasika, ukuze izenze nyulu.
56 Ayemfuna ngoko uYesu, ethetha odwa, emi etempileni, esithi, Nithini na? akasayi kuza na emthendelekweni?
57 Ke kaloku ababingeleli abakhulu nabaFarisi babewise umthetho wokuthi, ukuba umntu uthe wazi apho akhona, maze axele, ukuze bambambe.

Chapter 12
1 Ngelo xesha uYesu wacanda emasimini ngesabatha; baye ke abafundi bakhe belambile, baqala ukukha izikhwebu, badla.
2 Ke kaloku abaFarisi, bakukubona oko, bathi kuye, Yabona, abafundi bakho benza oko kungavumelekileyo ukwenziwa ngesabatha.
3 Wathi ke kubo, Aniyilesanga na into awayenzayo uDavide, xa walambayo, yena nabo babenaye;
4 okokuba wangena endlwini kaThixo, wazidla izonka ezibekwa phambi koThixo, ekube kungavumelekile ukuba azidle yena, kwanabo babenaye, kuvumelekele ababingeleli bodwa?
5 Anilesanga na emthethweni, ukuba ngesabatha ababingeleli etempileni bayayingcolisa isabatha, bangazeki tyala noko?
6 Ndithi ke kuni, omkhulu kunayo itempile ukho apha.
7 Ukuba ke nibe nikwazile ukuba kuthini na ukuthi, Ndithanda inceba, andithandi mbingelelo, ninge ningabagwebanga abangenatyala.
8 Kuba uNyana woMntu uyiNkosi yayo nesabatha.
9 Esukile ke apho, waya kungena endlwini yabo yesikhungu.
10 Kwabonakala kukho umntu owome isandla; baza bambuza, besithi, Kuvumelekile na ukuphilisa ngesabatha? ukuze bammangalele.
11 Wathi ke kubo, Kuni apha nguwuphi na umntu ongethi, enemvu inye, yaza yona yeyela emhadini ngesabatha, angayibambi ayirhole?
12 Ubeke phi na ke umntu ukuyigqitha imvu? Ngoko ke kuvumelekile ukwenza okulungileyo ngesabetha.
13 Aze athi kumntu lowo, Solule isandla sakho. Wasolula, sabuya saphila ke, saba kwanjengesinye.
14 Bathi ke abaFarisi babhunga ngaye bakuphuma, ukuze bamtshabalalise.
15 Uthe ke uYesu, ekwazi oko, wemka, apho; walandelwa ngabantu abaninzi; wabaphilisa bonke.
16 Wabakhalimela ukuba bangamtyhili;
17 ukuze kuzaliseke okwathethwayo ngoIsaya umprofeti, esithi,
18 Yabonani, umkhonzi wam endimnyulileyo; Intanda yam okholisiweyo yiyo umphefumlo wam; Ndiya kumbeka uMoya wam phezu kwakhe, Waye eya kuzibikela iintlanga umgwebo.
19 Akayi kuphika, akayi kunkqangaza, Akukho mntu uya kuliva izwi lakhe ezitratweni.
20 Ingcongolo etyumkileyo akayi kuyaphula, Nomsonto oqhumayo akayi kuwucima, Ade awuphumelelisele ekoyiseni umgwebo;
21 Kanjalo ziya kuthembela egameni lakhe iintlanga.
22 Kwaza kwaziswa kuye ophethwe yidemon, eyimfama, esisidenge; wamphilisa, wada lowo uyimfama usisidenge wathetha, wabona nokubona.
23 Zathi nqa ke zonke izihlwele, zathi, Ngunyana kaDavide kanti na lo?
24 Kodwa bona abaFarisi, bakuva, bathi, Lo yena akazikhuphi iidemon, kuphela kungoBhelezebhule, umphathi weedemon.
25 Uthe ke uYesu, ezazi iingcingane zabo, wathi kubo, Ubukumkani bonke obahlulelene bodwa buyaphanza, nomzi wonke nendlu yonke eyahlulelene yodwa ayisayi kuma.
26 Ukuba ke uSathana ukhupha uSathana, wahlulelene yedwa; bothini na ngoko ukuma ubukumkani bakhe?
27 Ukuba mna ndizikhupha iidemon ngoBhelezebhule, bazikhupha ngabani na onyana benu? Ngenxa yoko baya kuba ngabagwebi benu bona.
28 Kodwa ukuba ndizikhupha iidemon ngoMoya kaThixo mna, ngoko bunifikele kanti ubukumkani bukaThixo.
29 Angathini na umntu ukuba nako ukungena endlwini yegorha elo, ayiphange impahla yalo, ukuba akathanga tanci alibophe igorha, andule ke ukuyiphanga indlu yalo?
30 Lowo kum uchasene nam, nalowo ungandibuthisiyo uyachithachitha.
31 Ngenxa yoko ndithi kuni, Konke ukona nokunyelisa bokuxolelwa abantu; kodwa khona ukumnyelisa uMoya oyiNgcwele abasayi kukuxolelwa abantu.
32 Nothe wathetha ilizwi elichasene noNyana woMntu uya kuxolelwa; kodwa othe wathetha elichasene noMoya oyiNgcwele, akasayi kuxolelwa yena, nakweli phakade, nakwelo lizayo.
33 Wenzeni mhle umthi, nesiqhama sawo sibe sihle; nithi mhlawumbi niwenze mbi umthi, nesiqhamo sawo sibe sibi; kuba umthi waziwa ngesiqhamo sawo.
34 Nzalandini yamarhamba, ningathini na ukuba nako ukuthetha izinto ezilungileyo, nikhohlakele nje? Kuba umlomo uthetha ngokuphuphuma kwentliziyo.
35 Umntu olungileyo, ebuncwaneni obulungileyo bentliziyo yakhe, ukhupha izinto ezilungileyo; nomntu okhohlakeleyo, ebuncwaneni obukhohlakeleyo, ukhupha izinto ezikhohlakeleyo.
36 Ndithi ke kuni, Onke amazwi angewani abathe bawathetha abantu, baya kuphendula ngawo ngomhla womgwebo;
37 kuba ngawo amazwi akho uya kugwetyelwa, nangawo amazwi akho uya kugwetywa.
38 Kwaza kwaphendula abathile bakubabhali nabaFarisi, besithi, Mfundisi, singa singabona umqondiso uvela kuwe.
39 Waphendula ke wathi kubo, Isizukulwana esingendawo, esikrexezayo, singxamele umqondiso; ke asiyi kunikwa mqondiso, ungenguwo umqondiso kaYona umprofeti.
40 Kuba, njengokuba uYona ebemini ntathu nabusuku buthathu esiswini sentlanzi enkulu, kwangokunjalo, uNyana woMntu woba mini ntathu nabusuku buthathu embilinini womhlaba.
41 Amadoda aseNineve aya kusuka eme ngomgwebo nesi sizukulwana, asigwebe; ngokuba aguquka wona ngomemezo lukaYona; ke omkhulu kunoYona nanku apha.
42 Ukumkanikazi welasezantsi uya kusuka eme ngomgwebo nesi sizukulwana, asigwebe; ngokuba wavela eziphelweni zomhlaba, esiza kuva ubulumko bukaSolomon; kanti ke omkhulu kunoSolomon nanku apha.
43 Xa uthe ke waphuma umoya ongcolileyo emntwini, ucanda ezindaweni ezingenamanzi, ufuna ukuphumla, ungakufumani.
44 Uze uthi, Ndiya kubuyela kwasendlwini yam endaphuma kuyo; uthi ke wakufika uyifumane ize, itshayelwe, ivathisiwe.
45 Wandule ke ukuya uthabathe uze nabanye oomoya, abasixhenxe abakhohlakeleyo kunawo, bangene beme khona; lize ikamva laloo mntu libe libi kunesiqaleko sakhe; kuya kuba njalo nakwesi sizukulwana singendawo.
46 Akubon’ ukuba usathetha neendimbane ezo, kwathi thaphu unina nabazalwana bakhe, bema ngaphandle, befuna ukuthetha naye.
47 Wathi ke othile kuye, Nanku unyoko nabazalwana bakho, bemi ngaphandle, befuna ukuthetha nawe.
48 Uphendule ke wathi kulowo ubemxelele, Ngubani na uma? Kanjalo ngoobani na abazalwana bam?
49 Esolule isandla sakhe phezu kwabafundi bakhe, uthe, Nanku uma nabazalwana bam;
50 kuba osukuba ekwenza ukuthanda kukaBawo osemazulwini, yena lowo ngumzalwana wam, nodade wethu, noma.

Chapter 8
1 Xa yalivulayo elesixhenxe itywina, kwabakho ukuzola ezulwini, kwangathi sisiqingatha seyure.
2 Ndazibona izithunywa zezulu ezisixhenxe, ezimayo phambi koThixo; zaza zanikwa amaxilongo asixhenxe.
3 Seza esinye isithunywa, sema esibingelelweni, sinesiqhumiselo segolide, sanikwa iziqhumiso zazininzi, ukuze sizinikele, kunye nemithandazo yabangcwele bonke, phezu kwesibingelelo segolide esiphambi kwetrone.
4 Wenyuka ke umsi weziqhumiso, kunye nemithandazo yabangcwele, ephuma esandleni sesithunywa sezulu, waya emehlweni kaThixo.
5 Sathi isithunywa sasithabatha isiqhumiselo eso, sasizalisa ngomlilo wesibingelelo, sawuphosa emhlabeni; kwabakho izandi, neendudumo, nemibane, nenyikima.
6 Zaza izithunywa ezisixhenxe ezinamaxilongo osixhenxe, zazilungiselela ukuba zivuthele amaxilongo.
7 Sathi esokuqala isithunywa savuthela ixilongo, kwabakho isichotho nomlilo, ziphithikezwe negazi, zaphoswa emhlabeni; saza isahlulo sesithathu semithi satshiswa, nabo bonke utyani obuluhlaza batshiswa.
8 Sathi esesibini isithunywa savuthela ixilongo, kwanga kuphoswa intaba enkulu, isitsha ngumlilo, elwandle; saza isahlulo sesithathu solwandle saba ligazi;
9 safa isahlulo sesithathu sezidalwa eziphilileyo eziselwandle; nesahlulo sesithathu semikhombe sonakaliswa.
10 Sathi esesithathu isithunywa savuthela ixilongo, kwawa ezulwini inkwenkwezi enkulu, ivutha njengesibane, yawa phezu kwesahlulo sesithathu semilambo, naphezu kwemithombo yamanzi.
11 Igama lenkwenkwezi leyo kuthiwa nguMhlonyane; saza isahlulo sesithathu samanzi saba ngumhlonyane; yathi into eninzi yabantu yafa ngawo amanzi, ngokuba aba krakra.
12 Sathi esesine isithunywa savuthela ixilongo, saza sabethwa isahlulo sesithathu selanga, nesahlulo sesithathu senyanga, nesahlulo sesithathu seenkwenkwezi, ukuze isahlulo sesithathu sazo sibe mnyama, sithi isahlulo sesithathu sayo imini singakhanyi, bube njalo nobusuku.
13 Ndabona, ndeva olunye ukhozi luphaphazela esazulwini samazulu, lusithi ngezwi elikhulu, Yeha! yeha! yeha! abo bemiyo phezu komhlaba, ngawo amazwi aseleyo exilongo lezithunywa ezithathu, ezisaza kuvuthela amaxilongo.

Yintoni IBhabhiloni Enkulu?
Impendulo esuka eBhayibhileni
IBhabhiloni Enkulu, echazwe kwincwadi yeSityhilelo, yingqokelela yonqulo lobuxoki lwehlabathi ayithiyileyo uThixo. * (ISityhilelo 14:8; 17:5; 18:21) Nakubeni ingafani indlela eyenza ngayo kwizinto ezininzi, iyonke ibabhekelisela kude abantu ekunquleni uThixo oyinyaniso, uYehova.—Duteronomi 4:35.
Iindlela Zokubona IBhabhiloni Enkulu
Igama elithi iBhabhiloni Enkulu liyafuzisela. IBhayibhile iyichaza ‘njengomfazi nehenyukazi elikhulu’ elinegama ‘eliyimfihlelo: “IBhabhiloni Enkulu.”’ (ISityhilelo 17:1, 3, 5) Incwadi yeSityhilelo ‘inemiqondiso,’ ngenxa yoko kusengqiqweni ukufikelela kwisigqibo sokuba igama elithi iBhabhiloni Enkulu liyafuzisela, ayingomfazi wokoqobo. (ISityhilelo 1:1) Ukongezelela, ‘lihleli phezu kwamanzi amaninzi,’ amela “izizwana nezihlwele neentlanga neelwimi.” (ISityhilelo 17:1, 15) Umfazi wokoqobo akanakuyenza loo nto.
IBhabhiloni Enkulu imela intlangano esehlabathini. Ibizwa ngokuba ‘sisixeko esikhulu esinobukumkani phezu kookumkani bomhlaba.’ (ISityhilelo 17:18) Ngenxa yoko, isehlabathini lonke yaye inempembelelo.
IBhabhiloni Enkulu yintlangano yonqulo, kungekhona eyezopolitiko okanye ezorhwebo. IBhabhiloni yamandulo yayisisixeko esidume ngonqulo, isaziwa ngokusebenzisa ‘oomabophe nokukhafula.’ (Isaya 47:1, 12, 13; Yeremiya 50:1, 2, 38) Phofu kwakuqheliselwa unqulo lobuxoki oluchaseneyo noThixo oyinyaniso, uYehova. (Genesis 10:8, 9; 11:2-4, 8) Abalawuli baseBhabhiloni, benekratshi bamphakamela uYehova nonqulo lwakhe. (Isaya 14:4, 13, 14; Daniyeli 5:2-4, 23) Ngokufanayo, iBhabhiloni Enkulu yaziwa ‘ngokuqhelisela ukusebenzelana nemimoya.’ Loo nto ibonisa ukuba iyintlangano yonqulo.—ISityhilelo 18:23.
IBhabhiloni Enkulu ayinakuba yintlangano yezopolitiko kuba “ookumkani bomhlaba” bazilela ukutshatyalaliswa kwayo. (ISityhilelo 17:1, 2; 18:9) Ayiyo nentlangano yezorhwebo kuba iBhayibhile iyayahlula ‘kubarhwebi abahambahambayo bomhlaba.’—ISityhilelo 18:11, 15.
IBhabhiloni Enkulu ilunqulo lobuxoki. Kunokuba lufundise abantu indlela yokusondela kuThixo oyinyaniso, uYehova, unqulo lobuxoki lubakhuthaza ukuba banqule abanye oothixo. IBhayibhile ikubiza oku ngokuba ‘ziintlobano zokuziphatha okubi.’ (Levitikus 20:6; Eksodus 34:15, 16) Iinkolelo ezinjengoThixo Oneziqu Ezithathu, ukungafi komphefumlo nokunqulwa kwemifanekiso kwakusenziwa kwiBhabhiloni yamandulo ibe kusaqhutyekwa nako nakunqulo lobuxoki. Olu nqulo lobuxoki ludibanisa unqulo lwawo nokuthanda ihlabathi. Xa ithetha ngolu hlobo lokunganyaniseki, iBhayibhile ithi, kukukrexeza.—Yakobi 4:4.
Ubutyebi bonqulo lobuxoki nokuqhayisa ngabo kufana nomfanekiso-ngqondweni esiwuzotyelwa yiBhayibhile ngeBhabhiloni Enkulu, ‘ivathiswe ngezimfusa nezingqombela’ ibe ‘ihonjiswe ngegolide nelitye elixabisekileyo neeperile.’ (ISityhilelo 17:4) IBhabhiloni Enkulu ngumthombo ‘wezinto ezilizothe zomhlaba’ okanye iimfundiso nezenzo ezingamkholisiyo uThixo. (ISityhilelo 17:5) Amalungu onqulo lobuxoki ‘zizizwana nezihlwele neentlanga neelwimi’ ezixhasa iBhabhiloni Enkulu.—ISityhilelo 17:15.
IBhabhiloni Enkulu ibekek’ ityala ngokufa kwabo “bonke abaye babulawa ngogonyamelo emhlabeni.” (ISityhilelo 18:24) Ukutyhubela imbali, unqulo lobuxoki alukhange nje luxhokonxe imfazwe nobugrogrisi kodwa luye lwasilela nokufundisa abantu inyaniso ngoYehova, uThixo oluthando. (1 Yohane 4:8) Oku kusilela kuye kwanegalelo ekuphalaleni kwegazi labantu abaninzi. Abo bafuna ukukholisa uThixo bafanele ‘baphume kuyo,’ bazahlule kunqulo loboxoki.—ISityhilelo 18:4; 2 Korinte 6:14-17.

Chapter 21
1 Yimijelo yamanzi intliziyo yokumkani esandleni sikaYehova; Uyibhekisa apho asukuba ethande khona.
2 Zonke iindlela zendoda zithe tye kwawayo amehlo; Umlinganisi weentliziyo nguYehova.
3 Ukwenza ubulungisa nokusesikweni Kunyulekile kuYehova ngaphezu kombingelelo.
4 Ukuqwayinga kwamehlo, nokugungubala kwentliziyo, Kwanokukhubela kwabangendawo, kusisono.
5 Iingcinga zabakhutheleyo zisingisa elungeniselweni lodwa; Konke ukungxama kusingisa entswelweni yodwa.
6 Ukuzuza ubuncwane ngolwimi oluxokayo Ngumphunga ophephethekayo wabafuna ukufa.
7 Ukubhuqa kwabangendawo kuyabaqweqwedisa; Ngokuba abavumi ukwenza okusesikweni.
8 Iligoso-goso indlela yendoda enetyala; Ke yena ohlambulukileyo, umsebenzi wakhe uthe tye.
9 Kulungile ukuhlala elungqamekweni oluphezu kwendlu, Kunokuhlala ndlwini-nye nomfazi onengxabano.
10 Umphefumlo wongendawo unqwenela ububi; Amehlo akhe akambabali ummelwane wakhe.
11 Ekuhlawulisweni komgxeki siyalumka isiyatha; Ekuqiqisweni kwaso, isilumko samkela ukwazi.
12 Ilungisa liyayiqiqa indlu yongendawo. Libaphenulela ebubini abangendawo.
13 Ovingca iindlebe zakhe ekukhaleni kwesisweli, Naye uya kubiza, angaviwa.
14 Isipho entsithelweni sinqanda umsindo, Isicengo esondweni lengubo sinqanda umsindo onamandla.
15 Kuluvuyo kwilungisa ukwenza okusesikweni; Kuqhiphula umbilini kubasebenzi bobutshinga.
16 Umntu ondwendwayo, emke endleleni yengqiqo, Uya kuhlala esikhungwini sabafileyo.
17 Othanda imigcobo uba yindoda esweleyo; Othanda iwayini neoli akabi sisityebi.
18 Ongendawo lucamagusho ngenxa yelungisa; Inginingini lisesikhundleni sabathe tye.
19 Kulungile ukuhlala ezweni eliyintlango, Kunokuhlala nomfazi onengxabano neengqumbo.
20 Ubuncwane obunqwenelekayo neoli zisekhayeni lesilumko; Ke umntu osisinyabi uyaziginya azigqibe.
21 Ophuthuma ubulungisa nenceba Wofumana ubomi nobulungisa nozuko.
22 Isilumko siyaqabela emzini wamagorha, Siyiwise inqaba ekukholoswe ngayo.
23 Ogcine umlomo wakhe nolwimi lwakhe Ugcina umphefumlo wakhe ezingxingongweni.
24 Umkhukhumali oligagadele, ngumgxeki igama lakhe; Ngowenza ngokukhukhumala okuphuphumayo.
25 Umnqweno wevila uyalibulala, Kuba izandla zalo azivumi kusebenza.
26 Imini yonke linqwena linqwenile, Ke lona ilungisa liyapha lingavimbi.
27 Umbingelelo wabangendawo lisikizi; Kobeka phi na ke bakuwuzisa ngenxa yamanyala!
28 Ingqina elinamanga liyatshabalala; Ke yona indoda evayo ithetha kuphele.
29 Indoda engendawo iyingwanyalala ubuso; Ngothe tye oyiqondayo indlela yakhe.
30 Akukho bulumko, akukho ngqondo, Akukho cebo malungana noYehova.
31 Ihashe lilungiselwa imini yokulwa, Ke usindiso lona lunoYehova.

Chapter 13
1 Isihlabo esisingisele kwiBhabheli, awasibonayo uIsaya, unyana ka-Amotsi.
2 Nyusani ibhanile phezu kwentaba eluqayi, baphakamiseleni ilizwi; khobani ngesandla, bangene emasangweni amanene.
3 Mna ndibawisele umthetho abangcwalisiweyo bam, ndiwabizele umsindo wam amagorha am, abadlamkileyo bam abanekratshi.
4 Yiveni ingxokolo ezintabeni, ngathi yeyabantu abaninzi. Yiveni ingxokolo yezikumkani zeentlanga, zihlanganisene; uYehova wemikhosi uhlanganisa umkhosi wemfazwe.
5 Bavela ezweni elikude, ekupheleni kwamazulu-nguYehova nezixhobo zengqumbo yakhe, ukuba alonakalise ilizwe lonke.
6 Bhombolozani, kuba isondele imini kaYehova, ivela ngokwembuqo kuSomandla.
7 Ngenxa yoko ziwile iingalo zonke, zonke iintliziyo zabantu zinyibilikile.
8 Bakhwankqile, bafikelwe kukupenapena nayinimba; bayazibhijabhija njengozalayo, bakhwankqiswe ulowo nguwabo; ubuso babo bubuso bamalangatye.
9 Yabona, imini kaYehova iyeza, inobujorha, iphuphuma umsindo, ishushu, ukuba ilenze libe senkangala ilizwe, ibatshabalalise aboni balo kulo.
10 Kuba iinkwenkwezi zezulu namakroza alo akayi kukhanyisa kukhanya kwawo; liya kuba mnyama ilanga ekuphumeni kwalo, inyanga ingabi mhlophe ukukhanya kwayo.
11 Ndolivelela elimiweyo ngenxa yobubi balo, nabangendawo ngenxa yobugwenxa babo, ndiliphelise ikratshi labakhukhumeleyo, ndilithobele phantsi ikratshi labangcangcazelisi;
12 ndiwenze amadoda anqabe ngaphezu kwegolide engcwengiweyo, noluntu lunqabe ngaphezu kwegolide ecikizekileyo yakwaOfire.
13 Ngenxa yoko ndiya kuligungqisa izulu, nehlabathi linyikime, lishenxe endaweni yalo ngokuphuphuma komsindo kaYehova wemikhosi, ngemini yokuvutha komsindo wakhe;
14 bathi ke, njengebhadikazi elisukeliswayo, nanjengomhlambi ongenamhlanganisi, babheke elowo kubantu bakowabo, basabele elowo ezweni lakowabo.
15 Bonke abo bafunyenweyo baya kuhlatywa amahlanza, bonke abo babanjiweyo bawe likrele.
16 Zocunyuzwa iintsana zabo phambi kwamehlo abo, ziphangwe izindlu zabo, balalwe abafazi babo.
17 Yabona, ndibaxhoxhela amaMedi angayibekiyo isilivere, angayinanzileyo negolide.
18 Izaphetha zawo ziya kukhahlela amadodana, nesiqhamo sesizalo angabi namfesane siso; iliso lawo lingabi nanceba kubo abantwana.
19 IBhabheli, ikhazikhazi lezikumkani, isihombo sekratshi lamaKaledi, iya kuba njengokubhukuqa kukaThixo iSodom neGomora.
20 Ayi kumiwa naphakade, ayi kuza ihlalwe ezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwana, angagxumeki ntente khona nomArabhi, nabalusi bangakhi khona buhlanti.
21 Obutha khona amarhamncwa omqwebedu, zizale izindlu zabo zizihuluhulu, kuhlale iinciniba khona, kuqakathe izinto ezimaxhonti khona;
22 kulile amaxhwili ezingxandeni zabo ezinde, neempungutye emabhotweni okuxhamla ubuncwane; kusondele ukuza kwexesha layo, nemini yayo ingalibali.

‘Oku Koba Sisikhumbuzo Kuni’
‘Oku Koba Sisikhumbuzo Kuni’
“Olu suku loba sisikhumbuzo kuni, yaye nimele nilubhiyozele njengomthendeleko kuYehova.”—EKS. 12:14.
1, 2. Luluphi usuku amele abe nomdla kulo amaKristu, ibe kutheni?
XA UCINGA ngemihla yokukhumbula iziganeko, nguwuphi okhawuleza uthi qatha engqondweni? Umntu otshatileyo usenokuthi: “Lusuku lomtshato wam.” Abanye basenokucinga ngomhla obalulekileyo nobhiyozelwa ngabantu abaninzi, njengokukhululeka kwelizwe labo. Kodwa ngaba ubusazi ukuba kukho usuku obelubhiyozelwa sisizwe sonke iminyaka engaphezu kwe-3 500?
2 Olu suku yiPasika. Lusuku lokubhiyozela ukukhululeka kwamaSirayeli kubukhoboka baseYiputa. Lumele lubaluleke nakuwe. Ngoba? Kaloku luchaphazela ubomi bakho ngeendlela ezibalulekileyo. Kodwa usenokuthi, ‘NdingumKristu nje mna, ndingena phi kwiPasika yamaYuda? Kutheni ndimele ndibe nomdla kuyo?’ Impendulo ikula mazwi abangel’ umdla athi: “UKristu ipasika yethu ubingelelwe.” (1 Kor. 5:7) Ukuze siqonde indlela ebaluleke ngayo le nyaniso, simele siqale sazi ngePasika yamaYuda size siqonde ukuba idibana njani nomyalelo oya kumaKristu onke.
KWAKUTHENI UKUZE KUBEKHO IPASIKA?
3, 4. Yintoni eyenzekayo ngaphambi kwePasika yokuqala?
3 Zizigidi ngezigidi abantu abangengomaYuda ehlabathini lonke abayaziyo imvelaphi yePasika. Bambi baye bazifundela ngayo kwincwadi yeBhayibhile iEksodus, abanye beva kubaliswa ngayo okanye babukela imuvi ethetha ngayo.
4 Emva kokuba amaSirayeli echithe iminyaka engamakhoboka eYiputa, uYehova wathumela uMoses nomntakwabo, uAron, kuFaro ukuba akhulule abantu Bakhe. Ngenxa yekratshi, loo mlawuli waseYiputa wala ukuwakhulula amaSirayeli, waza ke uYehova wabetha elo lizwe ngothotho lwezibetho. Ekugqibeleni, uThixo wazisa isibetho seshumi, esabulala amazibulo aseYiputa, saza sanyanzela uFaro ukuba agob’ uphondo.—Eks. 1:11; 3:9, 10; 5:1, 2; 11:1, 5.
5. Yintoni ayemele ayenze amaSirayeli ngaphambi kokuba akhululwe? (Jonga umfanekiso osekuqaleni.)
5 Ayemele enze ntoni amaSirayeli ngaphambi kokuba akhululwe? Kwakusentwasahlobo ngo-1513 B.C.E., kwinyanga ekuthiwa nguAbhibhi ngesiHebhere, kamva ekwathiwa nguNisan. * UThixo waxelela amaSirayeli ukuba ngomhla weshumi kuloo nyanga, ayemele aqalise ukulungiselela umhla kaNisan 14. Olo suku lwaluqalisa ngorhatya, kuba iintsuku zamaHebhere zaziqalisa ngorhatya ziphele ngorhatya lwemini elandelayo. NgoNisan 14, ntsapho nganye kwakufuneka ixhele imvu (okanye ibhokhwe) eliduna ize itshize ngegazi layo emgubasini nakumphezulu womnyango. (Eks. 12:3-7, 22, 23) Le ntsapho yayimele itye inyama yemvu eyojiweyo kunye nesonka esingenagwele nohlaza. Ingelosi kaThixo yayiza kudlula kwelo lizwe ize ixabele amazibulo aseYiputa, kodwa amaSirayeli athobelayo ayeza kukhuselwa aze emva koko akhululwe.—Eks. 12:8-13, 29-32.
6. Abantu bakaThixo babemele bayijonge njani iPasika?
6 AmaSirayeli ayemele awukhumbule umhla wokukhululwa kwawo eYiputa nakwiminyaka emva koko. UThixo wathi kuwo: “Olu suku loba sisikhumbuzo kuni, yaye nimele nilubhiyozele njengomthendeleko kuYehova kwizizukulwana zenu. Nifanele nilubhiyozele njengommiselo kuse kwixesha elingenammiselo.” Umbhiyozo womhla we-14 wawulandelwa ngumthendeleko weentsuku ezisixhenxe. UNisan 14 yayingowona mhla wePasika, kodwa igama elithi Pasika linokusetyenziswa xa kubhekiselwa kuzo zonke iintsuku ezisibhozo zomthendeleko. (Eks. 12:14-17; Luka 22:1; Yoh. 18:28; 19:14) IPasika yayiphakathi kwemithendeleko emiselweyo okanye iziganeko ezazimele zibhiyozelwe ngamaHebhere ngonyaka.—2 Kron. 8:13.
7. Sisiphi isiganeko esitsha esamiselwa nguYesu ngePasika yokugqibela?
7 UYesu nabapostile bakhe babeyibhiyozela iPasika kuba babengamaYuda, bephantsi koMthetho kaMoses. (Mat. 26:17-19) Kwisihlandlo sokugqibela bekwenza oku, uYesu wamisela isiganeko esitsha ababemele basenze nyaka ngamnye abalandeli bakhe—iSidlo Sangokuhlwa SeNkosi. Kodwa babemele basenze ngaluphi usuku?
ISIDLO SANGOKUHLWA SENKOSI—NGALUPHI USUKU?
8. Nguwuphi umbuzo ophakamayo ngokuphathelele iPasika neSidlo Sangokuhlwa SeNkosi?
8 Ekubeni uYesu wasungula iSidlo Sangokuhlwa SeNkosi emva nje kwePasika yokugqibela, esi siganeko sitsha sasiza kuba ngosuku lwePasika. Noko ke, mhlawumbi uye waqaphela ukuba umhla wePasika yamaYuda oboniswe kwezinye iikhalenda zale mihla wahluka ngosuku okanye ngeentsuku kulowo sikukhumbula ngawo ukufa kukaKristu. Ubangelwa yintoni lo mahluko? Esinye isizathu sisifumana kumyalelo kaThixo owawusiya kumaSirayeli. Emva kokuchaza ukuba ‘indibano yakwaSirayeli iphela imele ixhele’ imvu, wayichazela ukuba imele yenjenjalo nini apha kumhla kaNisan 14.—Funda iEksodus 12:5, 6.
9. Ngokutsho kwe-Eksodus 12:6, yayimele ixhelwe nini imvu yePasika? (Funda ibhokisi ethi “Ngaliphi Ixesha Lemini?”)
9 Incwadi yamaYuda ethi The Pentateuch and Haftorahs ibonisa ukuba iEksodus 12:6 ithi imvu yayimele ixhelwe “phakathi kweengokuhlwa ezimbini.” Nezinye iiBhayibhile zisebenzisa kanye loo mazwi. Ezinye, ezifana neTanakh yamaYuda, ziguqulele eli binzana ngokuthi “ngokuhlwa.” Kanti ezinye zithi “ngorhatya” okanye “ukutshona kwelanga.” Ngoko imvu yayimele ixhelwe emva kokuba ilanga litshonile kodwa kusakhanya, ekuqaleni kukaNisan 14.
10. Ngokutsho kwabathile, yayimele ixhelwe nini imvu, kodwa oko kuphakamisa wuphi umbuzo?
10 Kamva, amanye amaYuda avakalelwa ukuba kwakuya kuthatha iiyure ukuxhela zonke izimvu eziziswa etempileni. Ngoko ayekholelwa ukuba iEksodus 12:6 ibhekisela ekupheleni kukaNisan 14, phakathi kwaxa ilanga laliqalisa ukutshona (emva kwemini) nasekupheleni kosuku ukutshona kwelanga. Kodwa ke, ukuba kunjalo, isidlo sasiza kufunyanwa nini? UNjingalwazi uJonathan Klawans, oyingcali kwimicimbi yamaYuda amandulo, wathi: “Nakuba ukulandelelana kwemihla kungachazwanga ngokuthe ngqo kwiEksodus, usuku olutsha luqalisa ukutshona kwelanga, ngoko umbingelelo wenziwa nge-14, kodwa iPasika nesidlo sayo ziqala nge-15.” Waphinda wathi: “Iincwadi zooRabhi . . . azithethi kwanto ngendlela eyayisenziwa ngayo iSeder [isidlo sePasika] ngaphambi kokutshatyalaliswa kweTempile” ngonyaka ka-70.
11. (a) Ziziphi izinto ezenzekayo kuYesu ngePasika ka-33? (b) Kwakutheni ukuze kuthiwe uNisan 15 ngonyaka ka-33 wawuyiSabatha ‘enkulu’? (Funda umbhalo osemazantsi.)
11 Simele sizibuze ukuba, Yaqhutywa njani iPasika ngonyaka ka-33? Njengokuba wawusondela loo mhla, ‘lowo kwakumele kubingelelwe ngawo ixhoba,’ ngoNisan 13 uKristu wathi kuPetros noYohane: “Hambani niye nisilungiselela ipasika ukuze siyidle.” (Luka 22:7, 8) ‘Ethubeni lafika ilixa’ lesidlo sePasika, emva kokutshona kwelanga xa kuqala uNisan 14, ngengokuhlwa yangoLwesine. UYesu wadla kunye nabapostile bakhe, waza emva koko wamisela iSidlo Sangokuhlwa SeNkosi. (Luka 22:14, 15) Ngobo busuku wabanjwa kwaza kwathethwa ityala lakhe. Wabethelelwa emini ngoNisan 14, ibe wafa kuloo mva kwemini. (Yoh. 19:14) Ngoko ke, ‘UKristu ipasika yethu wabingelelwa’ kwangolo suku lunye lokuxhelwa kwemvana yePasika. (1 Kor. 5:7; 11:23; Mat. 26:2) Njengokuba olo suku lwamaYuda lwalusondela ekupheleni, uYesu wangcwatywa—ngaphambi kokuqalisa kukaNisan 15. *—Lev. 23:5-7; Luka 23:54.
ISIKHUMBUZO ESIBALULEKILEYO KUWE
12, 13. Yintoni eyayidla ngokwenziwa ngabantwana bamaYuda ngePasika?
12 Ngoku makhe sibuyele eYiputa xa kwakusenzeka esi siganeko. UMoses wathi abantu bakaThixo babeza kuyigcina iPasika; benjenjalo de “kuse kwixesha elingenammiselo.” Enye into eyayisenzeka kulo msitho waminyaka le, kukuba abantwana babebuza abazali ngentsingiselo yePasika. (Funda iEksodus 12:24-27; Dut. 6:20-23) Ngenxa yoko, iPasika yayiza kuba “sisikhumbuzo” esibalulekileyo nasebantwaneni.—Eks. 12:14.
13 Ukutyhubela izizukulwana, abazali babeza kufundisa abantwana babo izifundo ezibalulekileyo. Esinye sezo zifundo yayikukuba uYehova unako ukubakhusela abanquli bakhe. Abantwana bafunda ukuba akasosithixo nje, sona singenabuntu. UYehova nguThixo ophilayo obakhathalelayo aze abakhusele abantu bakhe. Oku wakubonisa xa wakhusela amazibulo amaSirayeli “ekuwabetheni kwakhe amaYiputa ngesibetho.” Wawagcina ephila amazibulo amaSirayeli.
14. IPasika inokunceda abazali abangamaKristu babafundise ntoni abantwana babo?
14 Namhlanje akuyomfuneko ukuba abazali abangamaKristu basoloko bechazela abantwana babo ngePasika minyaka le. Noko ke, ngaba uyabafundisa abantwana bakho esi sifundo sibalulekileyo, sokuba uThixo uyabakhusela abantu bakhe? Ngaba bayayibona into yokuba weyisekile ukuba uYehova usenguMkhuseli wokwenene wabantu bakhe? (INdu. 27:11; Isa. 12:2) Ngaba bayonwaba abantwana bakho xa ubafundisa kuba bengavakalelwa kukuba uyabanyanzela? Zama kangangoko unako ukubafundisa ngezi zinto ukuze womeleze ulwalamano lwentsapho yakho noYehova.
15, 16. Ingxelo yePasika naleyo ikwiEksodus inokusinceda sigxinisise ntoni ngoYehova?
15 IPasika ayaneli nje ukusifundisa ukuba uYehova unako ukukhusela abantu bakhe. Sifunda nokuba wabahlangula ‘ngokubakhupha eYiputa.’ Cinga nje ukuba kwakunjani ngeso sihlandlo. Bakhokelwa ngumqulu welifu nowomlilo. Banqumla komile kuLwandle Olubomvu ngoxa babephahlwe ngamanzi macala. Banela nje ukuwela, loo manzi asala ewugubungela umkhosi wamaYiputa. Emva kokuhlangulwa, amaSirayeli adanduluka esithi: “Mandimvumele uYehova . . . Ihashe nomkhweli walo uliphose elwandle. UYa ungamandla am nokomelela kwam, ekubeni elusindiso kum.”—Eks. 13:14, 21, 22; 15:1, 2; INdu. 136:11-15.
16 Ukuba unabantwana, ngaba uyabanceda bamthembe uYehova ukuba unguMhlanguli? Ngaba bayayibona indlela oweyiseke ngayo, kwindlela othetha ngayo nakwizigqibo ozenzayo? Mhlawumbi kuNqulo Lwentsapho unokusebenzisa izifundo esizifumana kwiEksodus isahluko 12-15 ukugxininisa indlela uYehova awabahlangula ngayo abantu bakhe. Ezinye izibhalo onokuzisebenzisa kule nkalo ziZenzo 7:30-36 okanye uDaniyeli 3:16-18, 26-28. Ewe sonke, enoba sibadala okanye siselula, sinokuqiniseka ukuba uYehova usenguye uMhlanguli nanamhlanje. Njengokuba wabahlangulayo abantu bakhe ngemihla kaMoses, uza kusihlangula nathi kwixesha elizayo.—Funda eyoku-1 kwabaseTesalonika 1:9, 10.
OKO SIMELE SIKUKHUMBULE
17, 18. Yintoni esimele siyikhumbule xa sicinga ngegazi elasetyenziswa kwiPasika yokuqala?
17 AmaKristu okwenyaniso akayibhiyozeli iPasika yamaYuda. Umbhiyozo wayo wawuyinxalenye yoMthetho kaMoses, ibe thina asikho phantsi kwaloo Mthetho. (Roma 10:4; Kol. 2:13-16) Kunoko, sigcina isiganeko sokufa koNyana kaThixo. Sekunjalo, zikho iinkalo ezisichaphazelayo kwesi siganeko sasungulwa eYiputa.
18 Igazi lemvu elatshizwa emigubasini nakumphezulu womnyango lalithetha ukusindiswa kobomi. Namhlanje, asibingeleli ngezilwanyana kuThixo nanini na—nkqu nangePasika. Kodwa kukho umbingelelo obhetele onokusindisa ubomi ngonaphakade. Umpostile uPawulos wabhala ‘ngebandla lamazibulo abhaliswe emazulwini.’ AmaKristu athanjisiweyo asindiswa ‘ngegazi lokufefa’ likaYesu. (Heb. 12:23, 24) NamaKristu anethemba lokuphila ngonaphakade emhlabeni axhomekeke kwakweli gazi ukuze asinde. Amele ahlale ekhumbula la mazwi asisiqinisekiso athi: “Ngaye siye sakhululwa ngentlawulelo ngalo igazi lakhe, saxolelwa izigqitho zethu, ngokobutyebi bobubele bakhe obungasifanelanga.”—Efe. 1:7.
19. Indlela ekwakusenziwa ngayo kwimvu exhelelwe iPasika isinceda njani sithembele ngakumbi kwiziprofeto?
19 Xa kwakuxhelwa imvu yesidlo sePasika, amaSirayeli ayengamele aphule naliphi na ithambo layo. (Eks. 12:46; Num. 9:11, 12) Kuthekani ‘ngeMvana kaThixo’ eyazinikelayo yaba yintlawulelo? (Yoh. 1:29) Yabethelelwa kunye nezaphuli-mthetho ezaziyixhage macala omabini. AmaYuda acela kuPilato ukuba amathambo ala madoda abethelelweyo aphulwe. Oku kwakuza kubangela ukuba akhawuleze afe, engekafiki umhla kaNisan 15, owawulusuku lokungqamana kweeSabatha ezimbini. Amajoni ayaphula imilenze yezaphuli-mthetho ezimbini, “kodwa akufika kuYesu, njengoko abonayo ukuba wayesele efile, akayaphulanga imilenze yakhe.” (Yoh. 19:31-34) Oku kwakufana nento eyayisenziwa kwimvu yePasika, ngoko le mvu singathi yaba ‘sisithunzi’ sento eyayiza kwenzeka ngoNisan 14 ka-33. (Heb. 10:1) Ukongezelela koko, indlela ezenzeka ngayo izinto yazalisekisa amazwi akwiNdumiso 34:20, nto leyo emele isenze sithembele ngakumbi kwiziprofeto.
20. Nguwuphi umahluko okhoyo phakathi kwePasika neSidlo Sangokuhlwa SeNkosi?
20 Noko ke, zikho iindlela eyahluke ngazo iPasika kwiSidlo Sangokuhlwa SeNkosi. Ngokomzekelo, amaSirayeli ayemele adle inyama, kodwa angalidli igazi lemvu. Oko kwahlukile kwinto uYesu awayiyalela abafundi bakhe. Wathi abo baza kulawula “ebukumkanini bukaThixo” bamele basidle isonka newayini njengezifuzisela inyama negazi lakhe. Oku siza kuthetha ngakumbi ngako kwinqaku elilandelayo.—Marko 14:22-25.
21. Kutheni kubalulekile nje ukwazi ngePasika?
21 Nakuba kunjalo, ayithandabuzeki into yokuba iPasika yayisisiganeko esibaluleke gqitha kwimbali yamaSirayeli, ibe ngamnye kuthi unokufunda lukhulu kuyo. Ngoko ngoxa iPasika yayimele ibe ‘sisikhumbuzo’ samaYuda, kungekhona esamaKristu, thina maKristu simele siyazi yaye sicingisise ngezifundo esizifumana kwiPasika njengokuba iyinxalenye yaso ‘sonke iSibhalo esiphefumlelwe nguThixo.’—2 Tim. 3:16.
^ isiqe. 5 Nangona igama elithi Nisan iligama elasetyenziswa kamva ukubiza le nyanga yesiHebhere, siza kusebenzisa lona xa sibhekisela kwinyanga yokuqala yekhalenda yamaYuda.
^ isiqe. 11 Xa kwakuqalisa uNisan 15, ekutshoneni kwelanga ngoLwesihlanu, into ethetha ukuqalisa kweSabatha eqhelekileyo yeveki (esusela kwingokuhlwa yangoLwesihlanu ise kweyangoMgqibelo), kuloo nyaka yangqamana nomhla wokuqala woMthendeleko Wamaqebengwana Angenagwele, osoloko usiba yisabatha. Ngenxa yoku kungqamana kwezi Sabatha zimbini, loo mhla wabizwa ngokuba yiSabatha ‘enkulu.’—Funda uYohane 19:31, 42.

Chapter 25
1 Wafa uSamuweli. Abuthelana onke amaSirayeli, ammbambazelela, amngcwabela endlwini yakhe eRama. Wesuka uDavide, wehla waya entlango yeParan.
2 Ke kaloku bekukho indoda eMahon, emsebenzi ubuseKarmele. Loo ndoda ke ibisisityebi kakhulu; yayineegusha ezingamawaka amathathu, neebhokhwe eziliwaka. Yayisekuchetyweni kweegusha zayo eKarmele.
3 Igama laloo ndoda lalinguNabhali, igama lomkayo linguAbhigali. Umfazi lowo wayenengqondo entle, eyinzwakazi; ke indoda leyo yayiyingcuka, zimbi iintlondi zayo, ingumKalebhi.
4 Weva uDavide entlango ukuba uNabhali ucheba iigusha zakhe.
5 UDavide wesusa ishumi lamadodana; wathi uDavide kumadodana lawo, Nyukani eKarmele niye kuNabhali, nibuze ukuphila kwakhe egameni lam;
6 nitsho ukuthi, Hlala kakuhle uphile wena, iphile nendlu yakho, kuphile konke onakho.
7 Ndivile kaloku ukuba unabachebi. Ke kaloku abalusi bakho babenathi; asibenzanga nto, abalahlekelwanga nto yonke imihla ababeseKarmele.
8 Buza kumadodana akho, okuxelela. Makababalwe nguwe la madodana akowethu, ngokuba sifike ngemini elungileyo. Khawubanike abakhonzi bakho, nonyana wakho uDavide, into esithe sayifumana isandla sakho.
9 Aya ke amadodana kaDavide, athetha kuNabhali ngokwaloo mazwi onke egameni likaDavide, ahlala phantsi.
10 UNabhali wabaphendula abakhonzi bakaDavide, wathi, Ngubani na yena uDavide? Ngubani na unyana kaYese? Azi namhla baninzi abakhonzi abakreqayo, elowo enkosini yakhe.
11 Ndingathini na ukuthabatha isonka sam, namanzi am, nento yam exheliweyo, endiyixhelele abachebi bam, ndiyinike amadoda endingawaziyo nokuba avela phi na?
12 Ajika ke amadodana akwaDavide, ahamba ngendlela yawo, abuya eza amxelela ngokwaloo mazwi onke.
13 Wathi uDavide kumadoda akhe, Nxibani elowo ikrele lakhe. Banxiba ke elowo ikrele lakhe. Walinxiba noDavide ikrele lakhe. Kwenyuka uDavide, elandelwa ngamadoda akumakhulu amane; kwahlala amakhulu amabini nempahla.
14 Ke kaloku uAbhigali, umkaNabhali, waxelelwa yindodana ethile kumadodana akhe, isithi, Yabona, uDavide ususe abathunywa entlango, ukuba beze kusikelela inkosi yethu; yesuka yabadlakavula.
15 Kanti amadoda lawo ebelungile kunene kuthi; akasonanga, asilahlekelwanga nto ngemihla yonke esibe sihamba nawo, oko besisezindle;
16 aba ludonga kuthi nasebusuku nasemini, yonke imihla ebe sinawo, sisalusa impahla emfutshane.
17 Yazi ngoko, uyibone into oyenzayo; ngokuba kugqitywe kwelobubi ngakwinkosi yethu, nangakwindlu yayo yonke; ilitshijolo, akusenakuthethwa nayo.
18 Wakhawuleza ke uAbhigali, wathabatha amakhulu amabini ezonka, neentsuba zambini zewayini, neegusha zantlanu sezihlinziwe, neeseha zantlanu zamakhweba, zalikhulu izicumba zeerasintyisi, zamakhulu mabini izicumba zamakhiwane, wazibeka emaesileni.
19 Wathi kumadodana akwakhe, Gqithelani phambi kwam; niyabona, ndiyanilandela. Akayixelela indoda yakhe uNabhali.
20 Kwathi, ekhwele e-esileni, esihla esitheni lentaba, nabo ooDavide namadoda akhe besihla, bemkhawulela, waqubisana nabo.
21 Ke kaloku uDavide ebethe, Ndifumane ndazixokisa ngokwam, ndazigcina zonke izinto zalo entlango, akwalahleka nto entweni yonke eyeyakhe; wandibuyisela ububi esikhundleni sokulungileyo.
22 UThixo makenjenje kwiintshaba zikaDavide, aqokele ukwenjenje, ukuba kude kwasa ngomso ndisalise, kubo bonke anabo, into eyindoda.
23 UAbhigali wambona uDavide, wangxama, wehla e-esileni, wawa ngobuso phambi koDavide, waqubuda emhlabeni.
24 Wawa ke ezinyaweni zakhe, wathi, Mabube kum, kum lo, nkosi yam, ubugwenxa obu. Makhe athethe umkhonzazana wakho ezindlebeni zakho, uwaphulaphule amazwi omkhonzazana wakho.
25 Inkosi yam mayingakhe ikhathale ngulo mntu ulitshijolo, uNabhali ngokuba njengoko linjalo igama lakhe, unjalo yena; nguNabhali igama lakhe, unobudenge; ke mna, mkhonzazana wakho, andiwabonanga amadodana enkosi yam, owawathumayo.
26 Ngoko, nkosi yam, ehleli nje uYehova, uhleli nje umphefumlo wakho, inene, uYehova ukunqandile ukuba ungaphalazi gazi, ungazisindisi ngesandla sakho; ngoko mazibe njengoNabhali iintshaba zakho, nabayifunela ububi inkosi yam.
27 Ngoko le ntsikelelo, ayizisileyo umkhonzazana wakho enkosini yam, mayinikwe amadodana alandela inkosi yam.
28 Khawumxolele umkhonzazana wakho ukreqo lwakhe; ngokuba, inene, uYehova uya kuyenzela inkosi yam indlu eqinileyo; ngokuba inkosi yam ilwa iimfazwe zikaYehova; ububi abuyi kufunyanwa kuwe imihla yakho yonke.
29 Xa kuthe kwesuka umntu, wakusukela, wawufuna umphefumlo wakho, wobotshwa umphefumlo wenkosi yam esiqhumeni sabaphilileyo kuYehova uThixo wakho; ke wona umphefumlo weentshaba zakho wowusawula entendeni yenkwitshi.
30 Kuthi, xa uYehova athe wenza kwinkosi yam njengako konke okulungileyo akuthethileyo ngawe; wakumisa wayinganga yamaSirayeli:
31 oko kungabi sisiwiso kuwe, nesikhubekiso sentliziyo yenkosi yam, nokuphalaza igazi elimsulwa, nokuzisindisa kwenkosi yam; ukuba uthe uYehova wenza okulungileyo enkosini yam, womkhumbula umkhonzazana wakho.
32 Wathi ke uDavide kuAbhigali, Makabongwe uYehova, uThixo kaSirayeli, okuthumileyo namhla, wandikhawulela.
33 Mayibongwe imvo yakho, ubongwe wena, ondaleleyo namhla ukuba ndiphalaze igazi, ndizisindise ngesandla sam.
34 Noko ke ehleli nje uYehova, uThixo kaSirayeli, ondithinteleyo andenza nto imbi, ukuba ubungangxamanga uze kundikhawulela, inene, ngekungadanga kuse ngomso kusasele kwaNabhali into eyindoda.
35 UDavide wakwamkela esandleni sakhe oko akuzisileyo kuye; wathi kuye, Nyuka unoxolo, uye endlwini yakho; uyabona, ndiliphulaphule izwi lakho, ndakunonelela.
36 Waya ke uAbhigali kuNabhali, nanko enesidlo endlwini yakhe njengesidlo sokumkani; intliziyo kaNabhali imnandi, enxila kunene. Akamxelela nto, nokuba yencinane nokuba yenkulu, kwada kwasa ngengomso.
37 Kwathi ngengomso, ukuphuma kwewayini kuNabhali, umkakhe wamxelela loo mazwi; yafa intliziyo yakhe phakathi kwakhe, yaba lilitye.
38 Kwathi, zakuba seshumini iintsuku, uYehova wambetha uNabhali, wafa.
39 Weva uDavide ukuba uNabhali ufile, wathi, Makabongwe uYehova okuthetheleleyo ukungcikivwa kwam, wandikhulula esandleni sikaNabhali, wamnqanda umkhonzi wakhe ebubini, uYehova wabubuyisela ububi bukaNabhali entlokweni yakhe. Wathumela uDavide, wathetha kuAbhigali ukuba amzeke, abe ngumkakhe.
40 Baya abakhonzi bakaDavide kuAbhigali eKarmele, bathetha kuye, besithi, UDavide usithume kuwe ukuba akuzeke, ube ngumkakhe.
41 Wesuka, waqubuda ngobuso emhlabeni, wathi, Nanku umkhonzazana wakho wokuba likhobokazana lokuhlamba iinyawo zabakhonzi benkosi yam.
42 Wangxama ke uAbhigali, wesuka, wakhwela e-esileni, elandelwa sisihlanu somthinjana, wabalandela abathunywa bakaDavide, waba ngumkakhe.
43 UDavide wabezeke noAhinowam waseYizereli; baba ngabafazi bakhe bobabini nabo.
44 Ke uSawule wayethe uMikali, intombi yakhe, umkaDavide, wamnika uFaliti, unyana kaLayishe waseGalim.
