1:1 UThixo wayethethile nje kudala ngeendawo ezininzi, nangeendlela ezininzi, koobawo ngabo abaprofeti, uthethe ngale mihla yokugqibela kuthi ngoNyana;
1:2 awammisayo wayindlalifa yeento zonke, awathi kwangaye wayenza indalo yonke;
1:3 othe, elubengezelo lobuqaqawuli bakhe, nombhalo wenkqu yakhe, ezithwele nokuzithwala zonke izinto ngalo ilizwi lamandla akhe, wesuka, akuba eyenzile ngokwakhe intlambululo yokusihlambulula ezonweni, wahlala phantsi ngasekunene kobuKhulu, enyangweni;
1:4 ethe waba ngonamandla ngaphezu kwezithunywa zezulu, ngangoko azuze ilifa legama eligqithiseleyo kunelazo.
1:5 Kuba sisiphi na isithunywa, awakha wathi kuso, UnguNyana wam wena, Mna ndikuzele namhla? Nokuthi, Mna ndiya kuba nguYise wakhe, Yena abe nguNyana wam?
1:6 Nangexa athi amngenise owamazibulo kwelimiweyo, uthi, Maziqubude kuye zonke izithunywa zikaThixo.
1:7 Okunene ngazo izithunywa zezulu uthi, Ulozenza izithunywa zakhe oomoya, Nababusi bakhe ilangatye lomlilo;
1:8 kodwa ngaye yena uNyana uthi, Itrone yakho, Thixo, isa ephakadeni lasephakadeni; Yintonga ethe tye intonga yobukumkani bakho.
1:9 Wathanda ubulungisa, wathiya okungendawo; Ngenxa yoko, uThixo, uThixo wakho, ukuthambise Ngeoli yomgcobo ngaphezu kowenu.
1:10 Abuye athi, Ekuqalekeni, wena Nkosi, waliseka ihlabathi, Nalo izulu lingumsebenzi wezandla zakho;
1:11 Wona aya kutshabalala, ke wena uhlala uhleli; Aye onke njengengubo eya konakala,
1:12 Nanjengesambatho uya kuwasonga, Asuke abe ngawambi; Ke wena ukwanguwe, Nayo iminyaka yakho ayiyi kuphela.
1:13 Sisiphi na ke isithunywa, awakha wathi kuso, Hlala ngasekunene kwam, Ndide iintshaba zakho ndizenze isihlalo seenyawo zakho?
1:14 Azingomoya ababusayo zonke na, zithunywe ukuba zilungiselele abo baza kuba ziindlalifa zalo usindiso?
2:1 Ngenxa yoko, simelwe kukuzinyamekela ngokugqithiseleyo izinto esazivayo, hleze sikhukuliswe simke kuzo.
2:2 Kuba, ukuba ilizwi elathethwa ngezithunywa zezulu laqina, kwathi konke ukugqitha nokungeva kwamkela umvuzo oyeleleyo;
2:3 sothini na thina ukusinda, sakuba siluhilizele usindiso olungakanana, lona lwaqalwa ukuthethwa yiyo iNkosi, lwaza lwaqiniselwa kuthi ngabo baluvayo;
2:4 uThixo engqinelana nabo ngemiqondiso kwanezimanga, nemisebenzi ngemisebenzi yamandla, nezabelo zoMoya oyiNgcwele, ngokokuthanda kwakhe?
2:5 Kuba akalithobelanga phantsi kwezithunywa zezulu elimiweyo eliza kubakho, eli sithetha ngalo.
2:6 Ke, wakha wangqina ubani, esithi, Uyintoni na umntu, le nto umkhumbulelayo? Unyana womntu, le nto umvelelayo?
2:7 Wamnciphisa kancina ne kunezithunywa zezulu, Wamthwesa uzuko nembeko. Wammisa phezu kwemisebenzi yezandla zakho;
2:8 Zonke izinto wazithobela phantsi kweenyawo zakhe. Kuba, ekubeni wazithobela phantsi kwakhe zonke izinto ezo, akashiyanga nto ingathotyelwanga phantsi kwakhe. Kukaloku ke asikaziboni zithotyelwe phantsi kwakhe zonke izinto.
2:9 Ke sibona lo uncitshiswe kancinane kunezithunywa zezulu, uYesu ke, ethe ngenxa yeentlungu zokufa wathweswa uzuko nembeko, ukuze ngobabalo lukaThixo eve ukufa ngenxa yabo bonke.
2:10 Kuba bekumfanele lowo, ezingenxa yakhe zonke izinto ezo, nezingaye zonke izinto ezo, ekubeni ezise oonyana abaninzi eluzukweni, ukuthi ayenze ngeentlungu igqibelele imbangi yosindiso lwabo.
2:11 Kuba lowo ungcwalisayo, kwanabo bangcwaliswayo, baphuma kumnye bonke; ekungenxa yeli thuba angenazintloni ukubabiza ngokuthi ngabazalwana,
2:12 esithi, Ndiya kulixela igama lakho kubo abazalwana bam. Ndivume phakathi kwebandla elokudumisa wena.
2:13 Abuye athi, Ndiya kukholosa ngaye. Abuye athi, Yabona, mna nabantwana andinike bona uThixo.
2:14 Ekubeni ngoko abantwana abo bengamadlelane naye ngenyama negazi, wathi naye ngokwakhe ngokukwanjalo wabelana nabo ngezo zinto, ukuze ngako ukufa ambhangise lowo unamandla okufa, oko kukuthi, uMtyholi lo;
2:15 abakhulule ebukhobokeni bonke abo babethe ngalo lonke ixesha lokudla kwabo ubomi bazizisulu zokoyika ukufa.
2:16 Kuba ndithi, akathabatheli kuye zithunywa; uthabathela kuye imbewu ka-Abraham.
2:17 Ekuthe ngoko wafanelwa kukuba afane nabazalwana bakhe ngezinto zonke, ukuze abe ngonenceba, kwanombingeleli othembekileyo omkhulu ezintweni ezilunge kuThixo, ukuze azicamagushele izono zabantu.
2:18 Kuba ekubeni eve ubunzima, ehendiwe naye ngokwakhe, unako ukubasiza abahendwayo.
3:1 Ndithi ngoko, bazalwana bangcwele, mabelana ngobizo lwasemazulwini, mondeleni uMpostile, uMbingeleli oMkhulu wovumo lwethu, uKristu Yesu;
3:2 ethembekile kulowo wamenzayo, kwanjengoMoses endlwini yakhe iphela.
3:3 Kuba lo ubalelwe ekuthini ufanelwe luzuko olungaphezu kolukaMoses; ngangokuba lowo wayakhayo indlu, enembeko engaphezu kwayo indlu.
3:4 Kuba yonke into eyindlu inoyakhayo; ke lowo wazakhayo zonke izinto nguThixo.
3:5 Okunene noMoses ebethembekile endlwini yakhe iphela ngokomkhonzi, ukuze bube bubungqina obo bezinto eziya kuthethwa.
3:6 Ke yena uKristu uthembeke ngokonyana phezu kwendlu yakhe; esiyindlu yakhe ke thina, ukuba singaba sithe sakubamba ngokuthe nkqi ukungafihlisi kwethu, neqhayiya lethemba lethu, sada sesa ekupheleni.
3:7 Endithi ke, njengoko atshoyo uMoya oyiNgcwele, Namhla, ukuba nithe naliva ilizwi lakhe,
3:8 Musani ukuzenza lukhuni iintliziyo zenu, Njengasengcaphukisweni, ngomhla wolingo entlango;
3:9 Apho bandilingayo ooyihlo, bandicikida, Bayibona imisebenzi yam iminyaka emashumi mane.
3:10 Kungoko ndakruqukayo seso sizukulwana, Ndathi, Bahlala belahleka ngeentliziyo, Abazazi ke bona iindlela zam;
3:11 Njengoko ndafungayo, ndinengqumbo, Ndathi, Unakanye ukuba bokha bangene ekuphumleni kwam!
3:12 Lumkani, bazalwana, hleze kubekho kubani wenu intliziyo engendawo, engakholwayo, enokumka kuThixo ophilileyo;
3:13 manivuselelane imihla ngemihla, xa kusathiwa kunamhla, ukuze kungabikho mntu kuni wenziwa lukhuni kukulukuhla kwesono.
3:14 Kuba siba ngamabelana ngoKristu, ukuba sithe ingqalo yokukholosa kwethu sayibamba ngokuthe nkqi, sada sesa ekupheleni;
3:15 ekubeni kusithiwa, Namhla, ukuba nithe naliva ilizwi lakhe, Musani ukuzenza lukhuni iintliziyo zenu, njengasengcaphukisweni.
3:16 Kuba bathe abathile, bevile, bacaphukisa, phofu ingengabo bonke abo baphumayo eYiputa ngoMoses.
3:17 Yayingoobani na ke awakruquka ngabo iminyaka emashumi mane? Yabingengabo na abo bonayo, bazidumbu zawayo entlango?
3:18 Wafungela oobani na ke, ukuba abayi kungena ekuphumleni kwakhe, ingengabo abo bangevanga?
3:19 Siyabona ke, ukuba babengenakungena, ngenxa yokungakholwa.
4:1 Masoyike ngoko, hleze kuthi ekubeni kusasele idinga lokungena ekuphumleni kwakhe, kubekho bani kuni ungathi asilele.
4:2 Kuba sizishunyayeziwe iindaba ezilungileyo kwanjengabo; lathi kodwa ilizwi lodaba, lingadibananga nje nokholo kwabo balivayo, alabanceda nto.
4:3 Kuba thina sakholwayo, siyangena ekuphumleni, ngokoko athe, Njengoko ndafungayo, ndinengqumbo, Ndathi, Unakanye ukuba bokha bangene ekuphumleni kwam! nakubeni imisebenzi yenziwayo kususela ekusekweni kwehlabathi.
4:4 Kuba wakha wathetha ngawo umhla wesixhenxe, ukuthi, Waza waphumla uThixo ngawo umhla wesixhenxe kuyo yonke imisebenzi yakhe;
4:5 athi kule kananjalo, Unakanye ukuba bokha bangene ekuphumleni kwam.
4:6 Ekubeni ngoko kusalindele ke ukuthi kubekho bathile bangenayo kuko, baye abo, bashunyayezwayo iindaba ezilungileyo kuqala, bengangenanga ngenxa yokungeva:
4:7 ubuya amise mini ithile, esithi ngoDavide, Namhlanje, emveni kwexesha elingakanana; njengokuba kuthiwe, Namhla, ukuba nithe naliva ilizwi lakhe, Musani ukuzenza lukhuni iintliziyo zenu.
4:8 Kuba uYoshuwa, ukuba ubebaphumzile, ange engabuyanga athethe ngawo omnye umhla.
4:9 Ngoko ke abantu bakaThixo balindwe luphumlo olunjengolwesabatha.
4:10 Kuba lowo ungeneyo ekuphumleni kwakhe, naye ngokwakhe uphumle kuyo imisebenzi yakhe, njengoThixo kweyeyakhe.
4:11 Masikhuthalele ngoko ukungena koko kuphumla, ukuze kungabikho namnye ubuya eyele kwakuloo mzekelo wokungeva.
4:12 Kuba ilizwi likaThixo liphilile, lisebenza, libukhali ngaphezu kwamakrele onke antlangothi mbini; lihlaba liphumele, lide lahlule umphefumlo kwanomoya, amalungu kwanomongo; linokugweba iingcingane nezicamango zentliziyo.
4:13 Kanjalo akukho sidalwa singabonakaliyo emehlweni akhe; izinto zonke ke zize, zityhilekile, emehlweni alowo esinokuthana ni naye.
4:14 Ngoko, sinombingeleli omkhulu nje ocande emazulwini, UYesu ke, uNyana kaThixo, masilubambe uvumo lwethu.
4:15 Kuba asinambingeleli mkhulu ungenako ukuvelana nezilwelwe zethu; ke, sinowahendwayo ngeento zonke, ngokokufana nathi, engenasono.
4:16 Masisondlele ke ngoko sinokungafihlisi kuyo itrone yobabalo, ukuze samkeliswe inceba, sifumane ubabalo lokusiza ngexesha elililo.
5:1 Kuba wonke umbingeleli omkhulu, engovele ebantwini nje, umiselwa abantu ezintweni ezilunge kuThixo, ukuze asondeze iminikelo kwanamadini ngenxa yezono;
5:2 enokuthantamisa kwabangazi nto nabalahlekayo, ekubeni naye ngokwakhe enxitywe ubulwelwe.
5:3 Ngenxa yabo ke ufanelwe kukuthi, njengokuba esondezela abantu, kwangokunjalo azisondezele amadini ngenxa yezono.
5:4 Kanjalo akukho mntu uzithabathela ngokwakhe imbeko leyo; oyithabathayo ngobizwe nguThixo, kwanjengoAron.
5:5 Ngokunjalo naye uKristu akazizukisanga ngokwakhe, ukuba abe ngumbingeleli omkhulu; wazukiswa ngowathethayo kuye, wathi, UnguNyana wam wena, Mna ndikuzele namhla;
5:6 njengokuba esithi nakwenye indawo, Wena ungumbingeleli ngonaphakade, Ngokohlobo lukaMelkitsedeke.
5:7 Owathi ngemihla yenyama yakhe, xa wayesondeze izikhungo kwanezibongozo kulowo unako ukumsindisa ekufeni, kunye nodanduluko olunamandla, neenyembezi, waviwa ngenxa yokumhlonela kwakhe uThixo.
5:8 Nakuba ebenguNyana, wafunda ukululama ngobunzima awabuvayo;
5:9 waza, egqibelele, waba yimbangi yosindiso olungunaphakade kubo bonke abamlulamelayo,
5:10 ebizwe nguThixo, ukuba abe ngumbingeleli omkhulu ngokohlobo lukaMelkitsedeke.
5:11 Esineendawo ezininzi zokuthetha ngaye, ezilukhuni ukuchazwa, ekubeni nina naba buthuntu iindlebe.
5:12 Kuba, nakuba benifanele ukuba ngabafundisi, ngenxa yokuba sekumzuzu nakholwayo, nibuye naswela umntu wokunifundisa iziqalelo zokuqala zezihlabo zikaThixo; nesuka naba ngabafanele ukusezwa amasi, anaba ngabafanele ukudla okuqinileyo.
5:13 Kuba bonke abasasezwa amasi abanamava elizwi lobulungisa, kuba beziintsana.
5:14 Kokwabakhulileyo ke ukudla okuqinileyo, abo bathi, ngenxa yobugcisa, babe nezimvo eziqheliselwe ukucalula okuhle kwanokubi.
6:1 Endithi ngoko, masithi, siyeka elengqalo ilizwi elithetha ngoKristu, siqhubele kwelokukhula; singabuyi siseke ngeloguquko emisebenzini efileyo, nokukholwa kuThixo,
6:2 ngelemfundiso yeembhaptizo, neyokubekwa izandla, neyovuko lwabafileyo, neyogwebo olungunaphakade.
6:3 Oko ke sokwenza, ukuba angaba uthe uThixo wavuma.
6:4 Kuba abo bakha bakhanyiselwa, basiva isipho sasemazulwini, baba ngamadlelana ngoMoya oyiNgcwele,
6:5 bayiva incasa yelizwi elihle likaThixo, kwanamandla ephakade eliza kubakho,
6:6 baza babuya bakreqa: akunakwenzeka ukuba babuye bahlaziyelwe enguqukweni; ekubeni bephinda ukuzibethelelela emnqamlezweni uNyana kaThixo, bamhlaze ekuhleni.
6:7 Kuba umhlaba lo, uyiselayo imvula eza futhi phezu kwawo, uvelise imifuno elungele bona abo ulinywa nokulinywa ngenxa yabo, wamkela intsikelelo kuThixo;
6:8 ke, othi uvelise imithana enameva neenkunzane, awunto yanto, ukufuphi nengqalekiso; esiphelo sisa ekutshisweni.
6:9 Ke ngani nina, zintanda, sikholose ngelokuthi, nineendawo ezilungileyo kunezo, iindawo eziyelelene nosindiso, nakuba sisenjenje ukuthetha;
6:10 kuba akanantswela-bulungisa uThixo, ukude awulibale umsebenzi wenu, nomzamo wothando enalubonakalalisa kulo igama lakhe, nabalungiselelayo nje abangcwele, nisamana nibalungiselela.
6:11 Sinqwenela ke, ukuba ulowo kuni alubonakalalise kwaolo lukhuthalo, asingise kwinzaliseko yethemba, ade ase ekupheleni, ukuze ningabi ngababuthuntu;
6:12 ke nibe ngabaxelisa abo bathi, ngokholo nangokunyamezela, bawadla ilifa amadinga.
6:13 Kuba wathi uThixo, akumbeka ngedinga uAbraham, ekubeni bekungekho namnye umkhulu kunaye angamfungayo, wazifunga yena,
6:14 esithi, Inene, ndiya kuthi, ndisikelela, ndikusikelele; ndithi, ndisandisa, ndikwandise.
6:15 Waza ngokunjalo, enokunyamezela, walifumanisa idinga.
6:16 Kuba abantu okunene bafunga lowo umkhulu kubo, sithi kubo isifungo siphelise yonke impikiswano, sise engqinisekweni.
6:17 Uthe ngoko uThixo, enga angathi ngokukhona kugqithiseleyo akubonakalalise kwiindlalifa zedinga ukungaguquleki kwecebo lakhe, wasuka walamla ngesifungo;
6:18 ukuze kuthi, ngezinto ezimbini ezingenakuguquleka, angenako ukuxoka ngazo uThixo, sithi thina, basindileyo, sabamba ithemba elibekwe phambi kwethu, sibe novuselelo olunamandla;
6:19 ithemba ke esinalo ngokweankile yomphefumlo, linqabile, likwaqinile, lingena liye ngaphaya kwesikhuselo;
6:20 apho umanduleli uYesu wangena khona ngenxa yethu, ethe, ngokohlobo lukaMelkitsedeke, waba ngumbingeleli omkhulu osa ephakadeni.
7:1 Kuba lo Melkitsedeke, kumkani weSalem, mbingeleli kaThixo Osenyangweni, wahlangabezanayo noAbraham, ebuya evela ekubulaleni ookumkani, wamsikelela;
7:2 awathi uAbraham wamabela nesishumi sezinto zonke (esithi okunene, ukuqala ukuthetha ngentetho evakalayo, ngukumkani wobulungisa, kodwa kamva abe nangukumkani weSalem, oko kukuthi, ngukumkani woxolo;
7:3 engenayise, engenanina, engenamlibo wakuzalwa, engenasiqalo samihla, engenasiphelo sabomi, enziwe wafana naye uNyana kaThixo): lo uhleli engumbingeleli ngokungapheliyo.
7:4 Bonani ke ukuba mkhulu kwalowo, wathi uAbraham umawokhulu wamnika nesishumi emaxhobeni, awona alinqatha.
7:5 Abo okunene bakoonyana bakaLevi, babamkelayo ububingeleli, banomthetho wokubanga isishumi kubo abantu ngokomthetho; oko kukuthi, kubo abazalwana babo, nakuba bephume esinqeni sika-Abraham.
7:6 Kodwa yena, ongenamlibo wakuzalwa uphumayo kubo, ubange isishumi kuAbraham, wasikelela lowo unamadinga.
7:7 Ke ngokungenakuphikwa, encinane into isikelelwa yeyona inkulu.
7:8 Kananjalo apha okunene ngabantu abanokufa, abathabatha isishumi; kodwa khona apho ngongqinelweyo ukuba udla ubomi.
7:9 Ukutsho ke ndithi, kubangwe ngoAbraham isishumi nakuLevi, lo wamkelayo izishumi;
7:10 kuba ubesesinqeni sikayise, oko uMelkitsedeke wamhlangabezayo.
7:11 Ke ngoko, ukuba okunene inzaliseko ibingabakho ngobubingeleli bakwaLevi (kuba abantu bewiselwe owobubingeleli umthetho), bekusafuneka ngantoni na ke, ukuba kubuye kuvele mbingeleli wumbi ngokohlobo lukaMelkitsedeke, angabizwa ngokohlobo luka-Aron?
7:12 Kuba, ububingeleli baguqulwa nje, kufuneka ukuba kuguqulwe nomthetho.
7:13 Kuba lowo, zithethwa ngaye ezi zinto, waye engowasizwe simbi, ebekungekho namnye kuso ubesinyamekele isibingelelo.
7:14 Kuba kusekuhleni kanye, ukuba iNkosi yethu iphume kwesikaYuda isizwe, eso angathethanga nto ngaso uMoses ngobubingeleli.
7:15 Kwaza kwasekuhleni ngakumbi, ukuba kuvela mbingeleli wumbi, ngokokufana noMelkitsedeke,
7:16 ongathanga amiswe ngokomyalelo womthetho ongowenyama; wamiswa ngokwamandla obomi obungenakupheliswa.
7:17 Kuba ungqina ngokuthi, Wena ungumbingeleli ngonaphakade, Ngokohlobo lukaMelkitsedeke.
7:18 Kuba okunene kutshitshiswa umthetho owandulelayo, ngenxa yokuswela amandla, nokungancedi lutho kwawo
7:19 (kuba umthetho lowo awuzalisanga nto); ke kungeniswe phezu kwawo elona themba lilungileyo; esisondela ngalo kuye uThixo.
7:20 Kanjalo, ngangokuba engamiswanga, kungabangakho sifungo (kuba bona aba okunene benziwe ababingeleli kungafungwanga;
7:21 kodwa yena umiswe ngokufunga kwalowo wathi kuye, Yafunga iNkosi, ayiyi kuzohlwaya: Wena ungumbingeleli ngonaphakade, ngokohlobo lukaMelkitsedeke):
7:22 ngangoko ke uYesu waba ngummeli wowona ulungileyo umnqophiso.
7:23 Bathe bona ababingeleli baba baninzi, ngenxa yokuba ukufa kwakungavumi ukuba bahlale behleli;
7:24 ke yena, ngenxa yokuba ehleli ngonaphakade, unobubingeleleli obungenakudlula.
7:25 Ngoko unako nokubasindisa kanye abo bezayo ngaye kuThixo, ehlala ehleli nje ukuba abathethelele.
7:26 Kuba ubesifanele umbingeleli omkhulu onjalo, ongcwele, ongenabubi, ongenabala, owahlukileyo kubo aboni, othe waba ngaphezu kwalo izulu;
7:27 ekungafunekiyo ukuba athi imihla ngemihla, njengababingeleli abakhulu abaya, anyuse kuqala amadini ngenxa yezono ezizezakhe, andule ukunyusa ngenxa yezabantu; kuba oko wakwenza kwaba kanye, ekuzinyuseni ngokwakhe ngokwedini.
7:28 Kuba umthetho umisa abantu benobulwelwe, babe ngababingeleli abakhulu; ke lona ilizwi lesifungo, esingasemva komthetho, limise uNyana, egqibelele ngonaphakade.
8:1 Ke kaloku, eyona nto iyintloko kwezi zinto zithethwayo yile: Sinombingeleli omkhulu onje, othe wahlala phantsi ngasekunene kwetrone yobuKhulu emazulwini,
8:2 ongumbusi wengcwele, nowomnquba wenyaniso owamiswayo yiNkosi, awamiswa ngumntu.
8:3 Kuba wonke umbingeleli omkhulu umiselwa ukuba asondeze iminikelo kwanamadini; ekuthe ngenxa yoko kwafuneka ukuba naye lo abe nento ayisondezayo.
8:4 Kuba okunene, ukuba ebesemhlabeni, ubengayi kukha abe mbingeleli, bekho nje ababingeleli abayisondezayo iminikelo ngokomthetho:
8:5 bona bathi bakhonze umzekelo nesithunzi sezinto zasemazulwini, kwanjengokuba uMoses wayehlatyelwe nguThixo, xa abeza kuwufeza umnquba; kuba wathi, Khangela ukuba uzenze zonke izinto ngokomfuziselo owawuboniswayo entabeni.
8:6 Kodwa kungoku, uzuze umbuso ogqithiseleyo kulowo, kangangokuba engumlamleli womnqophiso olungileyo ngakumbi, wona usekwe phezu kwawona madinga alungileyo.
8:7 Kuba, ukuba ubungenakusoleka lowo wokuqala, ubungayi kufunelwa ndawo owesibini.
8:8 Kuba uthi kubo, esola, Yabona, kuza imihla, itsho iNkosi, Endiya kuzalisekisa phezu kwendlu kaSirayeli, naphezu kwendlu kaYuda, umnqophiso omtsha;
8:9 Ungahambi ngokomnqophiso endawenzela ooyise, Mini ndababamba ngesandla, ukuba ndibakhuphe emhlabeni waseYiputa; Ngokuba bengahlalanga emnqophisweni wam bona, Ndaza nam andabakhathalela; itsho iNkosi;
8:10 Ngokuba nangu wona umnqophiso, endiya kuwenzela indlu kaSirayeli Emva kwaloo mihla, itsho iNkosi: Ndiya kuthi, ndiyibeke imithetho yam engqondweni yabo, Ndiyibhale ezintliziyweni zabo, Ndibe nguThixo kubo, Nabo babe ngabantu kum.
8:11 Kanjalo abayi kukha bafundise elowo ummelwane wakhe, Elowo umzalwana wakhe, esithi, Yazi iNkosi; Ngokuba baya kundazi bonke, Bethabathela komncinane wabo, base komkhulu wabo.
8:12 Ngokuba ndiya kukuxolela ukungalungisi kwabo, Nezono zabo, nokuchasa kwabo umthetho, ndingabi sakukhumbula.
8:13 Ngokuthi oku, Omtsha, uwaluphalisile owokuqala. Ke loo nto yalupheleyo, yalixhego, iseyisondele ekuthini shwaka.
9:1 Ke ngoko nowokuqala umnqophiso wawunezimiselo zombuso, kwanendawo engcwele yehlabathi.
9:2 Kuba kwakhiwa umnquba lowo. Igumbi lokuqala lalinesiphatho sezibane, kwanetafile, nesiboniso sezonka; lona kuthiwa yingcwele.
9:3 Emva ke kwesesibini isikhuselo, kwabakho umnquba lo kuthiwa yingcwele kangcwele;
9:4 unesibingelelo segolide sokuqhumisa; nayo ityeya yomnqophiso, yalekwe ngegolide ngeenxa zonke, inesitya segolide ngaphakathi esinemana, inentonga ka-Aron eyadubulayo, inawo amacwecwe omnqophiso.
9:5 Ke ngaphezu kwayo kwema iikerubhi zobuqaqawuli, zisibekele isicamagushelo; izinto ezo esingenakuthetha ngazo ngazinye ngoku.
9:6 Ke kaloku, zakubon ukuba zenziwe ngokunjalo ezo zinto, ababingeleli bangena okunene amaxa onke kowokuqala umnquba, beyifeza imibuso kaThixo.
9:7 Kodwa kowesibini kungena kube kanye ngomnyaka umbingeleli omkhulu yedwa, engangeni engenagazi, alisondezayo ngenxa yakhe, nangenxa yokungazi kwabantu.
9:8 Abe ngoku uMoya oyiNgcwele esazisa ukuthi, indlela eya kweyona ngcwele ayikabonakalaliswa, umnquba wokuqala usemi;
9:9 wona lo ungumzekeliso ozise exesheni elingeneyo, ekuthi ngalo kusondezwe iminikelo kwanamadini, izinto ezo ezingenako ngokwesazela ukumenza agqibelele lowo ukhonzayo;
9:10 ezithe, ndawonye nezinto ezidliwayo neziselwayo, neentlambululo ngeentlambululo, ezizizimiselo zenyama kuphela, zamiselwa ukuba kude kufike ixesha lolungiso.
9:11 Ke yena uKristu, efike wangumbingeleli omkhulu wazo izinto ezilungileyo eziza kubakho, uthe ngowona mkhulu ugqibeleleyo umnquba, ongenakwenziwa ngazandla, oko kukuthi, ongengowale ndalo,
9:12 wangena kwaba kanye kweyona ngcwele, kungengalo negazi leebhokhwe nelamathole, kungegazi elilelakhe; wafumana inkululo engunaphakade ngokusihlawulela.
9:13 Kuba, ukuba igazi leenkomo neleebhokhwe, nothuthu lwethokazi olufefa abaziinqambi, lungcwalisela ekuhlambululeni inyama:
9:14 lobeka phi na ukugqithisela lona igazi likaKristu, owazisondeza ngoMoya ongunaphakade, engenasiphako, kuye uThixo, ukusihlambulula isazela senu emisebenzini efileyo, ukuze nikhonze uThixo ophilileyo?
9:15 Nangenxa ke yoko, ungumlamleli womnqophiso omtsha, ukuze bathi abo babiziweyo (kwakubon,ukuba kubekho ukufa okuhlawulela izigqitho, ezibe ziphantsi kwawo umnqophiso wokuqala), balamkele idinga lelifa elingunaphakade.
9:16 Kuba apho kukhoyo umnqophiso womyoleli, kufuneka ukuba kucace ukufa kwalowo unqophisileyo.
9:17 Kuba umnqophiso uqiniseka bakuba befile, ekubeni ungaze ube namandla xenikweni asadla ubomi lowo unqophisileyo.
9:18 Ekuthe ngoko nowokuqala awasungulwa kungekho gazi.
9:19 Kuba kuthe, kwakubon ukuba umthetho wonke uxeliwe nguMoses ebantwini bonke ngokomyalelo, walithabatha igazi lamathole neleebhokhwe, ndawonye namanzi, noboya obubomvu, nehisope, wafefa incwadi ngokwayo, kwanabantu bonke;
9:20 esithi, Eli ligazi lawo umnqophiso, aniwisele umthetho ngawo uThixo.
9:21 Nomnquba ke, nazo zonke iimpahla zombuso, wazifefa ngokunjalo ngegazi.
9:22 Kananjalo ngokomthetho ndingade ndithi, zonke izinto ziphantse ukuba zihlanjululwe ngegazi; kungaphalalanga gazi, akubikho kuxolelwa.
9:23 Kwafuneka ngoko, ukuba okunene izizekelo zezinto ezisemazulwini zihlanjululwe ngezinto ezinjalo, kodwa zona iziqu zazo ezasemazulwini zihlanjululwe ngamadini alungileyo kunalawo.
9:24 Kuba uKristu akangenanga kweyona ngcwele inokwenziwa ngezandla, engumfuziselo weyenyaniso; ungene kuwo amazulu ngokwawo, ukuba abonakale ngoku ebusweni bukaThixo ngenxa yethu.
9:25 Kananjalo akangenanga ukuze azisondeze futhi, njengokuba umbingeleli omkhulu ebengena kweyona ngcwele iminyaka ngeminyaka, enegazi lenye into;
9:26 okanye ange emelwe kukuba abe ebeve ubunzima futhi, kuseloko lasekwayo ihlabathi. Ke uthe ngoku, ekufinyezweni kwawo amaphakade, wabonakalaliswa kwaba kanye, ukuba atshitshise isono ngelilelakhe idini.
9:27 Ke kwanjengokuba ke abantu bemiselwe ukuba bafe kube kanye, ize ke emveni koko ibe ngumgwebo:
9:28 ngokunjalo uKristu, esondezwe kwaba kanye, ukuba asithwale asisuse isono sabaninzi, uya kuthi okwesibini, ngaphandle kwesono, abonakale kwabo bamlindileyo, ezisa usindiso.
10:1 Kuba umthetho, unesithunzi nje sodwa sezinto ezilungileyo eziza kubakho, ungenaso sona isimilo sazo izinto, awuze ube nako, iminyaka ngeminyaka, ngaloo madini bawasondeza ngokungapheliyo, ukubenza bagqibelele abo basondelayo.
10:2 Okanye ange engayekwanga na ukusondezwa, ngenxa yokuba abo bakhonzayo, behlanjululwe nje kwaba kanye, bengasenasazela sazono?
10:3 Kusuke kuwo apho kubekho ukukhunjuzwa kwezono iminyaka ngeminyaka.
10:4 Kuba akunakwenzeka ukuthi igazi leenkomo neleebhokhwe lisuse izono.
10:5 Kungoko, akungena ehlabathini, athi, Akuthandanga mbingelelo, namnikelo wakudla, Ke undilungisele umzimba;
10:6 Amadini atshiswayo kuphele, nangawesono, akukholiswanga ngawo.
10:7 Ndaza ndathi, Yabona, ndiyeza (Encwadini esongwayo kubhalwe ngam), Ndiza kwenza ukuthanda kwakho, Thixo.
10:8 Esithi nje ngentla, Imibingelelo, neminikelo yokudla, namadini atshiswayo kuphele, nangawesono, akuwathandanga, akukholiswanga ngawo (wona lawo asondezwayo ngokomthetho),
10:9 ubuye athi, Yabona, ndiza kwenza ukuthanda kwakho, Thixo. Ususa okokuqala, ukuze amise okwesibini.
10:10 Esithe, ngokokuthanda kwakhe, sangcwaliswa ngokusondezwa komzimba kaYesu Kristu, kwaba kanye.
10:11 Wonke ke ongumbingeleli uma okunene imihla ngemihla ebusa, ewasondeza futhi kwawona loo madini, angenako nakanye ukususa isono.
10:12 Kodwa yena lo, esondeze idini lalinye ngenxa yezono, usuke wahlala phantsi ngasekunene kukaThixo ngokungapheliyo;
10:13 okokugqibela elinde ukuba zide iintshaba zakhe zenziwe isihlalo seenyawo zakhe.
10:14 Kuba ngamnikelo mnye ubenze bagqibelela ngokungapheliyo abo bangcwaliswayo.
10:15 Uyasingqinela ke naye uMoya oyiNgcwele; kuba, emveni kokuba etshilo ngenxa engaphambili ukuthi,
10:16 Nangu wona umnqophiso, endiya kuwenza nabo Emva kwaloo mihla, itsho iNkosi, Ndiya kuyibeka imithetho yam ezintliziyweni zabo, Ndiya kuyibhala ezingqondweni zabo, ubuya athi,
10:17 Izono zabo nokuchasa umthetho kwabo ndingabi sakukhumbula.
10:18 Ke apho uxolelo lwezo zinto lukhona, akusekho mnikelo ngenxa yesono.
10:19 Ngoko, bazalwana, sinokungafihlisi nje ukungena kweyona ngcwele ngalo igazi likaYesu,
10:20 ngendlela entsha, ephilileyo, awayisungulela thina, iphumela esikhuselweni, oku kukuthi, enyameni yakhe;
10:21 sinombingeleli omkhulu nje phezu kwendlu kaThixo:

10:23 silubambe uvumo lwethu lwethemba, lungabi nakuxengaxenga; kuba uthembekile lowo wabeka ngedinga.
10:24 Kanjalo masinyamekelane, ukuba silolane eluthandweni nasemisebenzini emihle;
10:25 singakuhilizeli ukuhlanganisana kwethu, njengesiko labanye. Masivuselelane kube kokukhona, niyibona nje ukuba imini leyo iyasondela.
10:26 Kuba, xa sithi sone ngabomi, emveni kokuba sakwamkelayo ukwazi inyaniso, akusasele dini ngenxa yezono;
10:27 sekusele ke ukulinda okoyikekayo kakhulu, umgwebo nomsindo womlilo, oza kudla abo bachasileyo.
10:28 Umntu obegiba okaMoses umthetho, ubebulawa kungekho tarhu, ngezwi lamangqina amabini, nokuba mathathu.
10:29 Niba wobeka phi na ke ukufanelwa kukubethwa okubi ngakumbi, lo umnyathelele phantsi uNyana kaThixo, walibalela ekuthini liyinqambi igazi lomnqophiso athe wangcwaliswa ngalo, wamgxeka uMoya wobabalo?
10:30 Kuba siyamazi lowo watshoyo ukuthi, Impindezelo yeyam, kuya kubuyekeza mna, itsho iNkosi. Kananjalo wathi, INkosi iya kubagweba abantu bayo.
10:31 Kuyoyikeka ke ukweyela ezandleni zoThixo ophilileyo.

10:33 enaphatha ukuthi nenziwe isibonelo ngeengcikivo kwaneembandezelo, naphatha ukuthi nibe ngamadlelana nabo bahamba ngokunjalo.
10:34 Kuba navelana nam ndisezintanjeni; kananjalo nakwamkela ngovuyo ukuphangwa kweempahla zenu, nisazi ukuba ninayo kuni ngokwenu emazulwini eyona mpahla ilungileyo, ihlala ihleli.
10:35 Musani ukukulahla ngoko ukungafihlisi kwenu, kona kunokwamkela umvuzo omkhulu.
10:36 Kuba kufuneka ukuba nibe nomonde, ukuze nithi, nakuba nikwenzile ukuthanda kukaThixo, nizuzane nalo idinga.

11:5 Ngokholo uEnoki wafuduselwa emazulwini ukuba angaboni kufa; akaba nakufunyanwa ke, ngenxa enokuba uThixo wamfudusayo; kuba ngaphambi kokufuduswa kwakhe, wangqinelwa ukuba umkholise kakuhle uThixo.
11:6 Ke, lungekho ukholo, akunakubakho ukumkholisa kakuhle; kuba lowo uzayo kuThixo, umelwe kukukholwa ukuba ukho, nokuba ungumvuzi wabo bamfunayo.
11:7 Ngokholo uNowa, ehlatyelwe nguThixo ngazo izinto ebezingekabonwa, wathi ngokoyika uThixo wawakha umkhombe wokusindisa indlu yakhe, awathi ngalo waligweba ihlabathi, waba yindlalifa yobulungisa obungokokholo.
11:8 Ngokholo uAbraham wathi, akubizwa, Wakululamela ukuba aphume, aye kuloo ndawo abeza kuyamkela ukuba ibe lilifa; waphuma ke, engazi kakuhle nalapho aya khona.
11:9 Ngokholo waba ngumphambukeli emhlabeni wedinga, wanga ukowasemzini, ehleli eminqubeni, ndawonye noIsake noYakobi, beziindlalifa zalo elo dinga ndawonye naye;

11:11 Ngokholo noSara ngokwakhe wamkela amandla okumisa umzi, waza wazala, liseligqithile ixesha lokuba amithe, ekubeni wambalela ekuthini uthembekile lowo wabekayo ngedinga.
11:12 Kungoko kwazalwayo ngamnye, engofileyo ke lowo, into engangeenkwenkwezi zezulu ukuba yintabalala, nanjengentlabathi eselunxwemeni lolwandle, engenakubalwa.
11:13 Aba bonke bafa ngokokholo, bengawafumananga amadinga; besuka bawabona kude, bakholosa, bathakazela, bavuma ukuba bangabasemzini, balundwendwe emhla beni.
11:14 Kuba abo bathetha izinto ezinjalo, babonakalalisa ukuba bangxamele ikowabo.

11:32 Ndisathetha ntoni na? Kuba ndingaphelelwa lixesha ndibalisa ngoGidiyon, kwanoBharaki, noSamson, noYifeta, kwanoDavide, noSamuweli, nangabo abaprofeti;
11:33 abathe ngokholo beyisa izikumkani, basebenza ubulungisa, bazuzana namadinga, bavingca imilomo yeengonyama,
11:34 bacima amandla omlilo, basinda kwiintlangothi zekrele, bomelela ekubeni bebeswele amandla, baba ngamagorha emfazweni, bagxotha imikhosi yabasemzini.
11:35 Abafazi babazuza abafileyo babo bevukile; abanye ke batyakatywa, bengalwamkelanga ukhululo, ukuze bazuzane nolona luvuko lululo.
11:36 Bambi ke benziwa intlekisa, batyakatywa; phezu koko ke baviswa imixokelelwane nentolongo;

11:38 (elalingabafanele ihlabathi), bedinga koozintlango, noozintaba, noomiqolomba, nakwimingxuma yomhlaba.
11:39 Aba ke bonke bathi, nakuba babengqinelwe ngalo ukholo, abazuzana nalo idinga,
11:40 uThixo esazalelele thina ngeyona nto ilungileyo, ukuze bangenziwa bagqibelele ngaphandle kwethu.
12:1 Ngako oko ke, sinelifu elingakanana nje elisingqongileyo lamangqina, masithi nathi, siwubekile nxamnye wonke umthwalo, naso isono esinokusirhawula ngokusisulu, silubaleke ngomonde ugqatso olubekwe phambi kwethu;
12:2 sise amehlo kuyo iMbangi noMgqibelelisi wokholo lwethu, uYesu, owathi, ngenxa yovuyo olwalubekwe phambi kwakhe, wawunyamezela umnqamlezo, elidelile ihlazo, waza wahlala phantsi ngasekunene kwetrone kaThixo.
12:3 Ewe, mqondeni lowo ukunyamezeleyo ukumphikisa okungaka kwaboni, ukuze ningadinwa, ingatyhafi imiphefumlo yenu.
12:4 Anikachasi kude kube segazini, nizamana naso isono.
12:5 Kananjalo senilulibele uvuselelo olu, luthetha kuni ngathi kukoonyana, lusithi, Nyana wam, musa ukukucekisa ukuqeqesha kweNkosi, Kananjalo ungatyhafi wakohlwaywa yiyo;
12:6 Kuba lowo imthandayo iNkosi iyamqeqesha, Ibatyakatye ke bonke oonyana ebamkelayo.
12:7 Ukuba ninyamezela uqeqesho, uThixo woba uniphethe njengoonyana; kuba nguwuphi na unyana ongaqeqeshwayo nguyise?
12:8 Ukuba ke aniqeqeshwa, abathe baba ngamadlelane ngalo bonke, noba nina niyimigqakhwe ngoko, aningoonyana.
12:9 Kananjalo sibe sinabo oobawo benyama okunene besiqeqesha, sabahlonela; asiyi kuthi ngakumbi na sithobele uYise woomoya bonke, sidle ubomi?
12:10 Kuba bona okunene basiqeqesha imihla embalwa, ngokokuzithandela kwabo, kodwa yena usiqeqeshela okusilungeleyo, ukuze sahlulelane ngobungcwele bakhe.
12:11 Lonke ke uqeqesho okunene ngokwakalokunje alubonakali luluvuyo, lubonakala luyintlungu; kodwa kamva lubanika isiqhamo esiluxolo, oko kukuthi sobulungisa, abo baqhelisiweyo lulo.
12:12 Kungoko endithi, Zimiseni izandla eziwileyo, namadolo anedumbe;
12:13 iinyawo zenu nizenzele imizila ethe tye, ukuze into eqhwalelayo ingaphambuki endleleni, kanye ke iphiliswe.
12:14 Phuthumani uxolo nabo bonke, nobungcwele, ekungekho namnye uya kuyibona iNkosi, engenabo;
12:15 nivelela, ukuze kungabikho bani usilelayo elubabalweni lukaThixo, kungabikho ngcambu yabukrakra, ithi ivele ihlume, inikhathaze, bathi abaninzi badyojwe yiyo;
12:16 kungabikho bani ulihenyu, nokuba ngumhlambeli, njengoEsawu, owathi ngenxa yentwana yokudla wananisa ngobuzibulo bakhe.
12:17 Kuba niyazi ukuba wathi kamva, ethanda ukuyidla ilifa intsikelelo, walahlwa; kuba akafumananga thuba languquko, noko wayingxamelayo ngeenyembezi.
12:18 Kuba anisondelanga ntabeni iphathwayo, itshayo ngumlilo, nasithokothokweni, na bumnyameni, naluqhwitheleni,
12:19 nasandini saxilongo, nasithongeni samazwi, abathe abo basivayo bacela kabukhali, ukuba kungabi sathethwa lizwi kubo.
12:20 Kuba babengenakukuthwala oko babeyalwa ngako; nokuba ithe inkomo yayichukumisa intaba, ibiya kuxulutywa ngamatye, ithi mhlawumbi ibinzwe ngomkhonto;
12:21 yaza loo nto yabonakalayo yoyikeka, kangangokuba uMoses athi, Ndiyoyika kakhulu, ndiyagubha.
12:22 Nisuke nina nafika eZiyon, entabeni nasemzini woThixo ophilileyo, kwiYerusalem yasemazulwini, nakumawakawaka ezithunywa zezulu,
12:23 kwingqungquthela, nakwibandla lamazibulo abhaliweyo emazulwini, nakuThixo, uMgwebi wabo bonke, nakoomoya bamalungisa agqibeleleyo,
12:24 nakuMlamleli womnqophiso omtsha, uYesu, nakwigazi lokufefa, elithetha ezona zinto zilungileyo kunelika-Abheli.
12:25 Lumkani, ningamali lowo uthethayo. Ukuba ke abo, bamalayo lowo wahlabayo izihlabo emhlabeni, abasindanga, kobeka phi na ke ukugqithisela kokungasindi kwethu, thina bamnikela umva lowo uhlaba esemazulwini;
12:26 olizwi oko lawuzamazamisayo umhlaba; ngoku ke ubeke ngedinga, esithi, Kusaya kuba ngumzuzwana endiya kuthi mna ndinganyikimisi mhlaba wodwa, ndinyikimise nalo izulu.
12:27 Oku kuthi ke, Kusaya kuba ngumzuzwana, kubonakalalisa ukuguqulwa kwezinto ezizanyazanyiswayo, ngathi kokwezenziweyo, ukuze zihlale zona ezingenakuzanyazanyiswa.
12:28 Masithi ngoko, sisamkela ubukumkani obungenakuzanyazanyiswa nje, sibe nombulelo, simkhonze ngawo uThixo ngokukholekileyo, sinokuhlonela nokoyika;
12:29 kuba uThixo wethu ungumlilo odlayo.
13:1 Uthando lobuzalwana maluhlale luhleli.
13:2 Musani ukukulibala ukubuka iindwendwe; kuba ngokwenjenjalo inxenye ibuke izithunywa zezulu, ingazi.
13:3 Bakhumbuleleni abakhonkxiweyo, ninge nikhonkxiwe nani; nabo ke baphathwa kakubi, njengokuba nisemzimbeni nani.
13:4 Umtshato mawubekeke ngeendlela zonke, nesilili masingadyojwa; ke abenza umbulo nabakrexezi, uThixo uya kubagweba.
13:5 Isimilo senu masibe sesingathandi mali, yanelani zizinto eninazo; kuba etshilo yena ukuthi, Andiyi kukha ndikuyekele; wabuya wathi, Andiyi kukha ndikushiye;
13:6 ngokokude somelele sithi, INkosi ilusizo lwam, andiyi koyika; Wondenza ntoni na umntu?
13:7 Bakhumbuleleni abakhokeli benu, abalithethayo kuni ilizwi likaThixo; nisingasinga impumelelo yehambo yabo, nixelise bona elukholweni lwabo.
13:8 UYesu Kristu ukwanguye izolo, nanamhla, ase nakuwo amaphakade.
13:9 Musani ukuphetshethwa ziimfundiso ngeemfundiso nezingezizo; kuba kuhle ukuba intliziyo iqine lubabalo; kungabi ngeento ezidliwayo, abangancedekanga zizo abo bahamba kuzo.
13:10 Sinesibingelelo thina, abangenagunya lakudla kuso abo bakhonza umnquba.
13:11 Kuba ezo zinto ziphilileyo, zigazi lazo lingeniswa ngenxa yesono kweyona ngcwele nguye umbingeleli omkhulu, imizimba yazo itshiselwa ngaphandle kweminquba.
13:12 Kungoko athe noYesu, ukuze abangcwalise abantu ngelilelakhe igazi, weva ubunzima ngaphandle kwesango.
13:13 Masiphume ke ngoko siye kuye ngaphandle kweminquba, sithwele ingcikivo yakhe.
13:14 Kuba apha asinamzi uhleliyo, singxamele lowo uza kuza.
13:15 Ngoko masithi ngaye sinyuse ngamaxesha onke kuye uThixo umbingelelo wendumiso, oko kukuthi, isiqhamo somlomo olivumayo igama lakhe.
13:16 Ke ukwenza okuhle nobudlelane, musani ukukulibala; kuba imibingelelo enjalo uyakholiswa kakuhle yiyo uThixo.
13:17 Bathambeleni abakhokeli benu, nibathobele; kuba bona abalali, ngenxa yemiphefumlo yenu, ngokwabaya kuphendula, ukuze bakwenze oko bevuyile, bengancwini; kuba anisizakali kuko oko.
13:18 Sithandazeleni; kuba sikholosekile kukuthi sinesazela esilungileyo, singa ezintweni zonke singahamba kakuhle.
13:19 Ndiyavuselela ke ngokugqithiseleyo, ukuba nikwenze oko, ukuze ndibuyiselwe kuni kamsinyane.
13:20 Ke kaloku uThixo woxolo, lowo wamvusayo kwabafileyo uMalusi oMkhulu wezimvu, ngegazi lomnqophiso ongunaphakade,
13:21 iNkosi yethu uYesu, wanga anganilungisa, nigqibelele emisebenzini yonke elungileyo, ukuze nikwenze ukuthanda kwakhe, esenza ngaphakathi kwenu oko kukholekileyo emehlweni akhe, ngoYesu Kristu. Kuye makubekho uzuko, luse emaphakadeni asemaphakadeni. Amen.
13:22 Ndiyanivuselela ke nina, bazalwana, linyamezeleni ilizwi lovuselelo olu; kuba ke ndinibhalele ngokufutshane.
13:23 Yazini ukuba umzalwana wethu uTimoti ukhululwe; endothi, xa angaba uthe wafika kamsinya, ndinibone ndinaye.
13:24 Babuliseni bonke abakhokeli benu, nabo bonke abangcwele. Bayanibulisa abavela eItaliya.
13:25 Ubabalo malube nani nonke. Amen.

Ukufunda esikolweni kuthatha iminyaka eli-13 - okanye amabanga - nangona unyaka wokuqala wemfundo, iBanga R okanye "lolwamkelo esikolweni", neminyaka emithathu yokugqibela, iBhanga 10, 11 nele-12 okanye "iMetriki" akanyanzelekanga. Iziklo zamabanga asezantsi ezininzi ziyabonelela ngeBanga R, nangona lisenokwenziwa epriskuli.

Ezolimo
Kudala kwakusithiwa xa kuthethwa nge-Agricultural Science kuthethwa ngezolimo. Makhe sikhuphe i-science le, sithethe nge-agriculture iyodwa. yintoni i-Agriculture?
Ezolimo[tshintsha | edit source]
Ezolimo, sisenokuthi kukufuya, le nto athi amaNgesi wona yi-farming, okanye singathi xa kuthethwa nge-Agriculture kuthethwa ngezolimo, athi ke yena ontetho isisiNgesi yi-husbandry. Ngokupheleleyo i-Agriculture kukufuywa kwezilwanyana; kukutyalwa kwezityalo nokukhuliswa kwazo, ukunonotshelwa kwesityalo ekuthiwa yi-fungi, kunye nezinye indlela zokuxhasa ubomi ezinje ngokutya, I-fiber ekutyeni, i-biofuel, nezibuyezarha kunye nezinye iimveliso ezisetyenziswa kakhulu ukugcina nokuphucula impilo yomntu. I-Agriculture yayingundoqo kuphuhliso ngethuba apho kwakusanda khona ukufuduka kwabantu kwiindawo zabo zemveli ngenxa yokuzingela nagezinye izizathu de baye kuzinza kwelinye ilizwe babe ngabalapho umphelo. Ngesingesi ke kuthiwa le mfuduko yi- sedentary human civilization. Apha ke kulapho kwatsho kwanda ukufuywa kwezilwanyana zasekhaya nokutyalwa kwezityalo ezikukutya eluntwini, okwaba luncedo olukhulu kwatsho kwakho umdliva wokutya. Le ntlutha yenza okokuba luye luphuhla ngokuphuhla i-civilisation. Isifundo esenziwa ngale-Agriculture kuthiwa yi-Agricultural science. Imbali ngale Agriculture singayilanda emva ukusuka kumawaka-ngamawaka eminyaka, apho ukukhula kolimo bekusoloko kuqhubeka phambili kusenziwa kukwachazwa ngokubanzi kukwahlukana kwemo yezulu, kwamasiko, kunye ne-technologies.

COSATU Khayelitsha, The Treatment Action Campaign, the Social Justice Coalition and Equal Education have for years worked seriously in Khayelitsha and elsewhere. We have never advocated stone-throwing or promoted violence. Our members work patiently, educate themselves and build local leadership to change the system of inequality. We ask all progressive people in churches, clinics, schools, universities, homes, and local organisations (in Khayelitsha and elsewhere) to distance themselves from mindless violence and calls for chaos that harm the poor and working class and their organisations.
(Xhosa version also available)
Joint statement from COSATU Khayelitsha, Treatment Action Campaign, Social Justice Coalition and Equal Education.
1. The need for mass organisation to overcome social inequality has never been greater.
2. In 1994 African and Coloured poor and working-class townships and rural areas celebrated freedom from White rule. The hope that hunger, unemployment, the bucket toilet system, apartheid education and homelessness would be addressed as a permanent priority of government lived in people’s hearts. It was hoped that health services would be improved and income inequality reduced.
3. We know that freedom has brought many improvements. Millions of people gained access to welfare grants, water, homes and clinics. We can march peacefully to our elected Parliament without being shot. We can join unions and organisations. We can go to the courts against evictions and for HIV treatment. These are some of the great gains that we must defend and advance. But the government has not made the needs of urban and rural working-class and poor people its priority.
4. Twenty years after the release of President Mandela and his comrades, and the unbanning of the ANC, and sixteen years after political freedom, income inequality is worse than ever before. More people than ever have no jobs, the indignity of the bucket system and toilets in the bushes continues, and education inequality and ill-health remain a part of the system of government and South African capitalism. As a result our sons and daughters turn to alcoholism, drugs and crime. They terrorise their families, neighbours and communities.
5. Meanwhile black and white capitalists, ex-homeland bureaucrats and other elements of a predatory elite are using the ANC to take the wealth of the country for themselves and keep it from poor and working-class communities. At local, provincial and national level, government protects and promotes corrupt, lazy and incompetent “managers”. The bosses have the greatest freedom capitalists have ever had in South Africa and pay the lowest taxes.
6. People are angry across our country and in every community. Anger is justified because government is abusing our trust and vote. Many people say: “Life cannot continue in this way.” Others take to the streets in protest that sometimes turns violent. We know that mindless violence and chaos have never brought freedom, decent jobs and a better life. Freedom and social equality comes through patient organisation, education and sustained struggle. It comes through building the collective power of communities.
7. The struggle for social equality and justice requires serious organisation and a clear programme for change. It requires collective leadership with the understanding required to lead millions of people over years, not a few hundred who throw stones for a few days and become cannon-fodder for self-appointed leaders.
8. Most people in Khayelitsha do not have decent jobs. Almost half are unemployed or are in casualised and badly paid domestic, shop and service work. In Khayelitsha there is a small middle-class comprising teachers, book-keepers and nurses most of whom support large unemployed families. The majority of people in Khayelitsha are supported by these remittances, welfare grants and informal sector work such as taverns, fruit stalls and spazas. Almost everyone in Khayelitsha relies on taxis, buses and trains.
9. A few weeks ago Abahlali baseMjondolo Western Cape, supported by some elements of the ANC Youth League and other community organisations, called for a “general-strike of informal settlements” to bring production in factories and shops to a standstill. They proposed to make the City “ungovernable” and cause “chaos throughout the City”. They openly encouraged residents to burn tyres, block roads and throw stones and rubbish. This call is immature, ignorant and shows contempt for our communities. The poor and working-class people of Khayelitsha cannot advance their struggle in this way. To build their own power they need patient organisation and unity with people from Cape Town to Mitchell’s Plein, Gugulethu to Manenberg.
10. For more than two weeks now, the actions of Abahlali baseMjondolo Western Cape have punished poor and working-class people in Khayelitsha. They have encouraged the police to become a law unto themselves and have prevented services such as refuse collection and water maintenance. Ambulance and fire services - already over-stretched - could not reach affected areas, or had to deal with “barricades” and attacks from protestors hurling stones.
11. In the name of Abahlali baseMjondolo Western Cape, young unemployed people are being used to intimidate their communities but this has failed to bring anything to a “standstill”. At most it has inconvenienced and endangered workers and the unemployed who use public transport including many elderly people and motorists.
12. The irresponsible actions of Abahlali baseMjondolo Western Cape are helping the state to criminalise struggle and dissent. They are strengthening the attacks on working class organisations by Helen Zille, Dan Plato and the national government’s police, army and intelligence agencies; allowing them to use the argument of “maintaining law and order” while inequality remains unchanged. Working class people, informal traders and Khayelitsha residents need to be able to get to work and access services and hence many will sympathise with this call for “law and order”. In this way Abahlali’s false militancy divides the poor and working class and weakens organisation and real struggle.
13. COSATU Khayelitsha, The Treatment Action Campaign, the Social Justice Coalition and Equal Education have for years worked seriously in Khayelitsha and elsewhere. We have never advocated stone-throwing or promoted violence. Our members work patiently, educate themselves and build local leadership to change the system of inequality. We ask all progressive people in churches, clinics, schools, universities, homes, and local organisations (in Khayelitsha and elsewhere) to distance themselves from mindless violence and calls for chaos that harm the poor and working class and their organisations.

Masingavumeli ikhwelo laBahlali baseMjondolo lokuthi kubekho
ukungaziphathi kakuhle ekuhlaleni!
1. Imfuneko yokugaya abantu ngobuninzi babo inkulu kakhulu sizokuphelisa ukungalingani ezindaweni zethu zalapha kweli.
2. Ngonyaka ka 1994 uhlanga olumnyama oluhlala ezilokishini nasezilalini lwabhiyozela inkululeko kwingcinezelo yabamhlophe. Sasinethemba lokuba indlala, iithoyilethi zamabhakethi, imfundo yengcinezelo (Bantu Education), nokungabinamakhaya, zonke ezingxaki zokusonjulululwa ngu Rhulumente zibe phambili kwinqubo kaRhulumente. Sasithembe ukuba ezempilo ziyakuphuhla nokungalingani kwemirholo iyakuncitshiswa.
3. Siyazi ukuba inkululeko izise iinguqu ezininzi. Izigidi zabantu zifumana isibonelelo
sikaRhulumente, amanzi, izindlu neekliniki. Singamatsha ngocwangco nangoxolo sisisa amaxwebu ezikhalazo zethu e- Palamente singadutyulwa mntu. Siyakwazi ukuba yinxaleye yembumba yabasebenzi nabahlali. Singakwazi ukuya kwiinkundla zamatyala ngelikhaba ukugxothwa emihlabeni nakwindawo esihlala kuzo, kwakunye nokwenzela sifumane unyango lwentsholongwane ugawulwayo. Ezi zezinye zeempumelelo ekumele siziziphuhlise kwaye sizikhusele. Nangona uRhulumente angakhange azibeke phambili iimfuno zabantu abahlala ezilokishini, abasebenzi, nabantu abahluphekileyo.
4. Emva kweminyaka engamashumi amabini uMongameli u- Mandela namaqabane akhe bakhululeka entolongweni, neminyaka elushumi elinantandathu emva kwenkululeko, imirholo yabantu ayilingani ngakumbi kunangaphambili, uninzi lwabantu alunamisebenzi, ukuhliselwa kwesidima sabantu ngokunikwa amabhakethi ukuba bawasebenzise njengezindlu zangasese nokukuqhubekeka kwabantu abanganazi- thoyilethi ezizizo nabathi baye ngasese ematyholweni, nokungalingani kwemfundo nokuhlala phantsi kwempilo emaxongo, ezi zisaqhubeka ukuba ziingxaki esinazo kuRhulumente nobudlagusha eMzantsi Afrika. Iziphumo zezokuba oonyana neentombi zethu babhenele ebunxileni, kwiziyobisi, nakubundlobongela. Bahlukumeza amakhaya ethu, abamelwane nasekuhlaneni.
5. Noxanje Amadlagusha amnyama namhlophe eli, abo babephezulu kooRhulumente bangaphambili noohlohle sakhe basebenzisa lombutho we ANC ukuhlohla izisu zabo bathatha obubutyebi ezandleni zabantu abahluphekileyo nabazenzi. URhulumente ukhuthaza ekwakhusela abaphathi bakhe abanqenayo, abangazi ukusebenza nabanobuqhophololo. Ababaphathi baneyona inkululeko inkulu nawo lamadlagusha alapha kweli loMzantsi bekwabhatalwa eyona irhafu eyona yancinci.
6. Abantu beli banengqumbo. Lengqumbo inesizathu ikwavakala ngoba uRhulumente uyasihlukumeza, esidanisile kuba besimthembile wasiphoxa kwii- voti zethu. Uluntu oluninzi luthi “Ubomi abunokuqhubeka ngoluhlobo”. Abanye baya ezindleleni beyokutoyitoya bekhalaza okuthi ngamanye amaxesha ezitoyitoyi ziphela ngobundlobongela. Siyazi ukuba ubundlobongela nogxobhagxobho aluzange lwazisa nkululeko, imisebenzi engcono nobomi obungcono. Inkululeko ukulungana ekuhlaleni luza xa siqokolelana ngononophelo nokuthozama sibe zimbumba, sifundisana sikwazabalaza singajiki. Iza ngokubumba sakhe sibe namandla ekuhlaleni.
7. Umzabalazo wokungalingani ngokwentlalo yoluntu lufuna uzicwangciso eziqinisekileyo nenkqubo yotshintsho lufuna isikhokelo esiluqilima nesikwazi ukukhokela izigidingezigidi zabantu hayi igcuntswana, elizimisele ukugxobhagxobha inzame zabantu zokulwela impilo engcono ngokuthi igibisele amatye kwintsuku ezimbalwa bengenazinjongo eziphucukileyo bekwasetyenziswa ngabobazityumbileyo bucala ukuba bebezinkokheli bengameli’imfuno zokuhlala.
8. Uninzilwabantu eKhayelitsha alunamisebenzi kwaye nabobanimesebenzi basebenza kwiindawo ezingaphucukanga nezingabhatala imali engekhosegangathweni njengonookhitshi kunyenabobasenza ezivenkiileni. Apha eKhayelitsha sinalo igcuntswana labobaphangela ngcono nabaxhasa abo bangaphangeliyo kumakhaya abo. Uninzi loluntu eKhayelitsha luxhaswangesibonelelo sikaRhulumente kunye nosomashishini basekuhlaleni njengonozimokolo nonomarike. EKhayelitsha uninzi lwabantu lusebenzisa izithuthi zikawonkewonke ukuya emisebenzini.
9. Kwiiveki ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo umbutho obizwaAbahlalibaseMjondolo kwelileNtshonaKoloni, bencediswa ngabambalwa abazibiza njengamalungu e- ANCYL, baye bahlaba ukhwelo oluthi “uqhankqalazo ematyotyombeni” besithi bafuna “yonke into ime ngxi kwaye neemisebenzi neevenkile zingasebenzi”. Bathi bafuna isixeko “singalawuleki” kwaye bagrogrisa “ngokugxobhagxoba kusosonke
isixeko”.Bakhuthazengokuphandle abahlali ukuba batshise amavili emoto, bavale imigaqo, begibisela amatye kwaye bechitha inkukuma endleleni. Elikhwelo alincedi kwaye libonisa ukungakhatheleli abahlali. Abahlali baseKhayelitsha abanakulwela impilo engcono ngoluhlobo.
10. Kungapha kweeveki ezimbini ngoku, izenzo zeqela laBahlalibaseMjondolo kwelileNtshonaKoloni bangcungcuthekisa abantu abahluphekayo eKhayelitsha, ezizenzo zenze abakwantsasana babengqwabalala ebantwini kwaye bavalela ukuqhubekeka kweenkonzo zikaRhulumente ekuhlaleni.
11. Egameni laBahlalibaseMjondolo eNtshonaKoloni, ulutsha olunganamisebenzi lusetyenziswa ukugrogrisa nokungcungcuthekisa abantu bokuhlala. Kodwa konke oku khangekuphumelisento ngoba izinto ekuhlaleni zangezimengxi! Eyona nto iyenzileyo kuphazamisa kwaye, bebeka ubomi babasebenzi nabantu abasebenzisa izithuthi zika wonkewonke esichengeni. Lonto ichaphazele neengwevu nabaqhubizithuthi.
12. Ukungakhathali nobundlobongela baBahlali BaseMjondolo baseMpuma Koloni anceda uRhulumente ukuba awutshutshise njengesihange umzalabalazo wethu nabathi bangavumelani naye. Baqinisa uhlaselo lwemibutho yabahluphekileyo nabasebenzi ngabantu abanjengo Helen Zille, Dan Plato, amapolisa, amajoni noongqondongqondo bakaRhulumente, bebavumela ukuba basebenzise iintetho ezithi “baqinisikisa ukuba kukho ucwangco nomthetho” noxa nje ukungalingani kungakatshintshwa. Abahlali abaninzi, abathengisi, nabasenzi baseKhayelitsha bafuneka bephangele befumene neenkonzo zikaRhulumente bakuye bavumelane nesimemezo “soncwangco nomthetho”. Ngoluhlobo ubugagu obungewuwo baBahlali BaseMjondolo bohlula abantu bethu betyhafisa imbumba yabantu nomzabalazo.
13. Imibutho U COSATU Khayelitsha, Treatment Action Campaign, Social Justice Coalition no Equal Education basenze iminyaka ngokuzimisela e-Khayelitsha nakwezinye iindawo. Asizange zakhupha isimemo sokukhuthaza ubundlobongela nokuxulutywa kwamatye. Sisebenza sinesineke, gokuzifundisa ngomzabalazo, nokwakhwa uqilima lwenkokheli zasekuhlaleni sizokutshintsha ukungalingani kweli. Simema sibongonza bonke abantu abanengqubela abazezinkonzweni, ezikliniki, ezikolweni, ezidyunivesiti, emakhaya, kwimibutho yokuhlala ukuba bachasele kubundlobongongela nesimemezo zokumosha esonakalisa abahluphekileyo nendawo zabo kunye nemibutho yabo.

I-Freedom Front Plus
I-Freedom Front Plus (FF+)nebizwa ngokuba yi-Afrikaans: Vryheidsfront Plus, VF+ ngesibhulu ngumbutho wezopolitiko eMzantsi Afrika. Inkokheli yawo ngu-Gq. Pieter Mulder.
Contents
Imbali ngalo mbutho[tshintsha | edit source]
IFreedom Front Plus yafunyanwa ngomhla woku-1 kweyoKwindla (ngoMatshi) ngomnyaka ka-1994, ufunyanwa ngamalungu azibiza okokuba ngama-Afrikaaner phantsi kukaConstand Viljoen. Into kaViljoen yaabhalisa lo mbutho we-Freedom Front Plus kwikomishini yokhetho ezimeleyo (I-IEC) ngomhla wesi-4 eKwindla (NgoMatshi) ka1994, ukuze amalungu alo mbutho akwazi ukuthabatha inxaxheba kunyulo luka olwaluzakubanjwa ngenyanga kaTshazimpuzi (kaApreli) ka1994. Ngomhla we-12 kweyoKwindla ngo1994, uViljoen wanikezela ngoxwebhu olwalunoluhlu lwamagama abagqatswa bombutho wakhe kwi-IEC, ngeliqinisekisa okokuba umbutho wakhe uyakuthabatha inxaxheba kunyulo oluzayo. Ngeli xesha enza yonke le migudu okaViljoen ukwangumsebenzi obambe isikhundla esiphezulu kwi-ofisi yamajoni aseMzantsi Afrika.
Iinkokheli zawo[tshintsha | edit source]
Okangoku zimbini iinkokheli zalo mbutho.
U-Constand Viljoen[tshintsha | edit source]
Njengoko sele sichazile apha ngasentla, le kwakuyingqonyela yenkokheli yeFreedom Front Plus. Ngubani kanye lo mfo?
UNjengele Constand Viljoen SSA SD SOE SM wazalwa ngomhla wama-28 kweyeDwarha ngo1933, ezalelwa eStanderton, eMpumalanga E-Mzantsi Afrika. Eli khwahla laye liyiKomanda likwangumpolitiki waseMzantsi Afrika. Kuyo yonke into lo mfo uyanconywa ngokuthintela uqhambuko lomlo nobundlobongela ngezigalo obabulindelekile kwicala labemi abamhlophe ababebonakala bengonelisekanga konke-konke lunyulo olwaluzakubanjwa okokuqala emva korhulumente wengcinezelo. Lo mfo utshate nenzwakazi u-Christina Sussanna Heckroodt, kwaye banabantwana abahlanu kulo mtshato, amadodana amane nentombi enye vo.
Inkonzo yakhe eMkhosini njengeJoni[tshintsha | edit source]
Ngo1951, U-Viloen upase ibanga lematriki e"Standerton High School". Ngo-1956, uye waba lilungu lombutho womkhosi waseMzantsi Afrika owawucetywa ngo1956. Uthe esakufumana isidanga sakhe kuphando kwezoMkhosi wamaJoni esifumana kwiYunivesithi yasePretoria, wakhwetyelwa kwisikhundla esiphakamileyo sokongamela indlela emakusetyenzwe ngayo ngumkhosi wamaJoni eMzantsi Afrika ngo 1976. Akubanga kudala ngo uViljoen wonyuselwa waba yingqonyela kumkhosi wamaJoni aseMzantsi afrika. Ngo1977 waphinda wonyuselwa waba yi-"Principal Chief of Staff" de kwango1980 apho waziphosa kumfo uMagnus Malan iintambo nje-SADF chief"
Inxaxheba yakhe kwi"Angolan Service"[tshintsha | edit source]
Lo ka-Viljoen wayebambe isikhundla esiphezulu kwakhona kumkhosi wamaJoni e-SADF owawuthabatha inxaxheba kumsebenzi owawubizwa ngokuba yi"Operation Savannah wango1975. Ukwaziwa kakhulu ngezicwangciso zakhe awazenzayo ngohlaselo lokuqala olwenziwa ngolunya nolubizwa ngokuba yi"major airborne assault hlaselo olo lwalubizwa ngokuba yi"Cassinga. Kaloku olu hlaselo kwakuliphulo lokuhlasela abaqhankqalazi bombutho i-SWAPO. Emkhulu enjalo ngokwesikhundla sakhe emsebenzini, lo kaViljoen wayekho kudushe lomlo, apho wanikezela ngento eyayibizwa ngokuba yi"swashbuckling", iinkokheli ezazimi kumgca wokuqala front-line leadership which won him the respect of many fellow Afrikaners.[5]
Inxaxheba yakhe kwezoPolitiko[tshintsha | edit source]
OkaViljoen unconywa kakhulu ngabantu abathile ngegalelo lakhe elakhokhelela ekubeni abamhlophe bayamnkele inkqubo entsha kawonke-wonke yonyulo olukhululekileyo. Kudlwabevu lwentetho yakhe awayenza kwindibano yonyaka ehlala ibanjwa minyaka ekuthiwa yile I-Broederbond annual assembly e-Voortrekkerhoogte . Kukule ndibano apho lo kaviljoen wathetha ngesiBhulu ebhekisa kumajoni antsundu aseMzantsi Afrika esithi - As hulle kan veg vir Suid-Afrika, kan hulle stem vir Suid-Afrika! Oko kuthetha ukuthi "Ukuba bangayilwela i-South Afrika, loo nto ithetha okokuba bangayivotela i-South Afrika.” Ngonyaka ka-1993 oka-Viljoen noogxa bakhe ababesele besidla umhlala-phantsi baqhulunqa umbutho ekuthiwa yi-Afrikaner Volksfront (Umbutho wama-Afrikaner), umbutho owenzelwa ama-Afrikaner. Kodwa yonke le mizamo yakhe uViljoen yenza okokuba bungabibuhle ncam ubudlelwane phakathi kwakhe namanye amaqela ama-Afrikaner.

1:1 Ke kaloku kwathi ngemihla yokulawula kwabagwebi, kwabakho indlala elizweni. Yahamba indoda yaseBhetelehem yakwaYuda, yaza yaphambukela elizweni lakwaMowabhi, yona nomkayo, noonyana bayo bobabini.
1:2 Ke igama laloo ndoda lalinguElimeleki, igama lomkayo linguNahomi; amagama oonyana bayo babengooMalon noKiliyon, bengamaEfrata aseBhetelehem yakwaYuda. Baya ke elizweni lakwaMowabhi, baba khona.
1:3 Wafa uElimeleki indoda kaNahomi; washiywa ke yena noonyana bakhe bobabini.
1:4 Bazeka abafazi abangamaMowabhikazi; igama lomnye lalinguOrpa, igama lomnye lalinguRute; bahlala khona iminyaka eseshumini.
1:5 Bafa kananjalo bobabini ooMalon noKiliyon; washiywa ke loo mfazi ngoonyana bakhe bobabini nayindoda yakhe.
1:6 Wesuka yena noomolokazana bakhe, ebuya elizweni lakwaMowabhi; ngokuba weva eselizweni lakwaMowabhi, ukuba uYehova ubavelele abantu bakhe ngokubanika isonka.
1:7 Waphuma kuloo ndawo abekuyo, enoomolokazana bakhe bobabini; wahamba ngendlela ebuyela ezweni lakwaYuda.
1:8 Wathi uNahomi koomolokazana bakhe bobabini, Hambani, nibuyele elowo endlwini yonina; uYehova makanenzele inceba, njengoko nenze ngako kubafi nakum.
1:9 UYehova makaninike nifumane indawo yokuphumla, elowo endlwini yendoda yakhe. Wabanga; baliphakamisa ilizwi labo, balila.
1:10 Bathi kuye, Hayi, siya kubuyela nawe kubantu bakowenu.
1:11 Wathi uNahomi, Buyani, zintombi zam; kungani na ukuba nihambe nam? Ndisenoonyana yini na embilinini wam, ukuze babe ngamadoda kuni?
1:12 Buyani, zintombi zam; hambani, ngokuba sendikwaluphalele ukuba nendoda. Khona ukuba ndibe ndisithi, Ndisenethemba, nokuba bendithe ndaba ngonendoda ngobu busuku, nokuba bendithe ndazala oonyana,
1:13 beniya kuthi ngenxa yoko nilinde bade bakhule, yini na? Beniya kuthi ngenxa yoko nizibambe ningabi namadoda, yini na? Hayi, zintombi zam; ngokuba kukrakra kunene kum ngenxa yenu, kuba isandla sikaYehova siphumelene nam.
1:14 Baliphakamisa ilizwi labo, babuya balila. UOrpa wamanga uninazala; ke yena uRute wanamathela kuye.
1:15 Wathi yena, Uyabona, umkhuluwakazi wakho ubuyele kubantu bakowabo, nakoothixo bakowabo; buya nawe, ulandele umkhuluwakazi wakho.
1:16 Wathi uRute, Musa akundibongoza ngokuthi mandikushiye, ndibuye, ndingakulandeli; ngokuba apho uya khona, ndiya kuya nam; apho uya kuthi vu khona, ndiya kuthi vu khona; abantu bakowenu baya kuba ngabantu bam, uThixo wakho abe nguThixo wam;
1:17 apho ufela khona, ndiya kufela khona, ndingcwatyelwe khona. Makenjenje uYehova kum, aphinde ukwenjenje: kukufa kodwa okuya kundahlula nawe.
1:18 Wabona ukuba uzimisele ukuhamba naye, wayeka ukuthetha kuye.
1:19 Bahamba ke bobabini, bada bafika eBhetelehem. Kwathi, xa bangenayo eBhetelehem, wazamazama wonke umzi ngenxa yabo, bathi, NguNahomi na lo?
1:20 Wathi kubo, Musani ukuthi ndinguNahomi; yithini ndinguMara, ngokuba uSomandla undenze ndakrakra kunene.
1:21 Ndemka mna ndizele; ke uYehova undibuyisa ndilambatha. Yini na ukuba nithi ndinguNahomi; uYehova engqinile nje ngam, uSomandla endenzele ububi nje.
1:22 Wabuya ke uNahomi enoRute umMowabhikazi, umolokazana wakhe, owabuya elizweni lakwaMowabhi; bafika bona eBhetelehem ekuqalekeni kokuvunwa kwerhasi.
2:1 Ke kaloku uNahomi ebenesihlobo sendoda yakhe, indoda esisityebi emzalwaneni kaElimeleki; igama layo libe linguBhohazi.
2:2 Wathi uRute umMowabhikazi kuNahomi, Makhe ndiye entsimini, ndibhikice izikhwebu emva kwalowo ndiya kubabalwa nguye. Wathi kuye, Hamba, ntombi yam.
2:3 Wahamba waya, wabhikica entsimini emva kwabavuni. Ithamsanqa lakhe lawela phezu kwesahlulo sentsimi kaBhohazi, obengowomzalwane kaElimeleki.
2:4 Wathi gqi uBhohazi, evela eBhetelehem, wathi kubavuni, UYehova makabe nani. Bathi kuye, UYehova makakusikelele.
2:5 Wathi uBhohazi kwindodana yakhe ephethe abavuni, Yekabani na le nkazana?
2:6 Yaphendula indodana ephethe abavuni, yathi. Yinkazana engumMowabhikazi, efike noNahomi, bevela elizweni lakwaMowabhi;
2:7 yathi ke, Makhe ndibhikice, ndibuthe phakathi kwezithungu emva kwabavuni; yeza ke, yema kwakusasa kwada kwangoku; ukuhlala kwayo endlwini kukancinane.
2:8 Wathi uBhohazi kuRute, Uyeva na, ntombi yam? Musa ukuya kubhikica ntsimini yimbi; kananjalo uze ungadluli apha; namathela wenjenje kumthinjana wam lo;
2:9 amehlo akho makabe sentsimini oyivunayo wona, uwulandele; yabona, abafana bakwam ndibawisele umthetho wokuba bangakuchukumisi; xa unxaniweyo, yiya ezityeni, usele into ekhiwe ngabafana.
2:10 Wawa ngobuso bakhe, waqubuda emhlabeni, wathi kuye, Kutheni na ukuba ndibabalwe nguwe, undibuke, ndiyinkazana yolunye uhlanga nje?
2:11 Waphendula uBhohazi, wathi kuye, Ndiyixelelwe kakuhle yonke into oyenzileyo kunyokozala, emva kokufa kwendoda yakho; ukuba ushiye uyihlo nonyoko, nelizwe owazalelwa kulo, weza ebantwini obungabazi ngaphambili.
2:12 UYehova makakubuyekeze ukwenza kwakho, uzaliseke umvuzo wakho ovela kuYehova uThixo kaSirayeli, oze wazimela phantsi kwamaphiko akhe wena.
2:13 Wathi yena, Mandibabalwe nguwe, nkosi yam; ngokuba undithuthuzele, ngokuba uthethe kakuhle nomkhonzazana wakho, ndingenjengomnye wabakhonzazana bakho nje.
2:14 Wathi uBhohazi kuye, Ngexesha lokudla sondela apha, udle isonka, uncinde iviniga ngeqhekeza lakho. Wahlala phantsi ngasecaleni labavuni. Wamnika ikhweba; wadla, wahlutha, washiya.
2:15 Wesuka ke waya kubhikica; uBhohazi waluwisela umthetho ulutsha olulolwakhe, wathi, Makabhikice naphakathi kwezithungu, ningamdanisi;
2:16 nimrholele nokumrholela inxenye ezithungwini, nishiye, abhikice, ningamkhalimeli.
2:17 Wabhikica entsimini leyo kwada kwahlwa; wayibhula into abeyibhikicile, yanga yiefa yerhasi.
2:18 Wathwala, waya ekhaya; wayibona uninazala into ayibhikicileyo; wakurhola, wamnika abekushiyile akuba ehluthi.
2:19 Wathi uninazala kuye, Ubhikice phi na namhla? Ubusebenza phi na? Makasikelelwe okubukileyo wena. Wamxelela uninazala umntu abesebenza kuye, wathi, Igama lendoda endisebenze kuyo namhla nguBhohazi.
2:20 Wathi uNahomi kumolokazana wakhe, Makasikelelwe yena nguYehova, ongayekelelanga ukwenza inceba yakhe kwabaphilileyo nakwabafileyo. Wathi uNahomi kuye, Indoda leyo iyalamana nathi; ingowabakhululi bethu.
2:21 Wathi uRute umMowabhikazi, Kananjalo ithe yona kum, Uze unamathele kulutsha olulolwam, lude lulugqibe lonke uvuno olulolwam.
2:22 Wathi uNahomi kuRute umolokazana wakhe, Kulungile, ntombi yam, ukuba uphume nomthinjana wakhe, ukuze ungafikelwa mntu ukwenye intsimi.
2:23 Wanamathela kumthinjana kaBhohazi, wabhikica, kwada kwagqitywa ukuvunwa kwerhasi nokuvunwa kwengqolowa; wahlala noninazala.
3:1 Wathi uNahomi uninazala kuye, Ntombi yam, ndingakufuneli na ukuphumla okokulungela?
3:2 Kaloku akasihlobo sethu na uBhohazi, lowo umthinjana ubunawo? Nanko esela irhasi ngobu busuku esandeni.
3:3 Zihlambe, uthambise, unxibe iingubo zakho, uhle uye esandeni. Uze ungazazisi endodeni leyo, ide igqibe ukudla nokusela.
3:4 Wothi, ukulala kwayo phantsi, uqonde indawo eye kulala kuyo, uye uyityhile ingubo ngasezinyaweni zayo, ulale phantsi; yokuxelela ke yona into owoyenza.
3:5 Wathi kuye, Yonke into oyithethayo ndoyenza.
3:6 Wehla ke waya esandeni, wenza ngako konke abemwisele umthetho ngako uninazala.
3:7 Wadla uBhohazi, wasela, yachwayitha intliziyo yakhe; waya walala phantsi ekupheleni kwentlaba. Waya ke ecotha, wamtyhila ingubo ngasezinyaweni zakhe, walala phantsi.
3:8 Kwathi phakathi kobusuku, yothuka indoda leyo, yaguquka, yabona kulele inkazana ngasezinyaweni zayo.
3:9 Yathi, Ungubani? Wathi, NdinguRute, umkhonzazana wakho; twabulula isondo lengubo yakho phezu komkhonzazana wakho, ngokuba ungumkhululi wena.
3:10 Yathi, Usikelelwe nguYehova, ntombi yam. Inceba yakho yamva nje ingaphezu kweyokuqala, ungalandelanga madodana nje, nokuba ngasweleyo nokuba nganobutyebi.
3:11 Kaloku ke, ntombi yam, musa ukoyika; konke okuthethileyo ndokwenzela; ngokuba bonke abantu bomzi wakowethu bayazi ukuba uyinkazana enesidima.
3:12 Ewe! Kuyinene, ndingumkhululi inyaniso. Ke kukho umkhululi osondeleyo kuwe kunam.
3:13 Lala ngobu busuku; kothi kusasa, ukuba uthe wakukhulula ngentlawulelo, kulunge, makakukhulule ngentlawulelo; ke ukuba akathanga akunanze ukukukhulula ngentlawulelo, ndokukhulula ngentlawulelo mna, ehleli nje uYehova. Lala kude kuse.
3:14 Walala ke ngasezinyaweni zakhe kwada kwasa; wavuka bengekanakanani abantu. Yathi, Makungaziwa ukuba bekuze inkazana esandeni.
3:15 Yathi, Ethe ingubo yakho yokwaleka, ukhongozele. Wakhongozela ke ngayo. Yalinganisa izilinganiso zerhasi ezithandathu, yamthwalisa; wagoduka.
3:16 Waya kuninazala, wathi yena, Utheni, ntombi yam? Wamxelela konke emenzele khona indoda leyo.
3:17 Wathi, Indinike ezi zilinganiso zerhasi; ngokuba yayisithi, Musa ukuya kunyokozala ulambatha.
3:18 Wathi, Hlala, ntombi yam, ude wazi okuya kuhla; kuba indoda leyo ayiyi kuphumla, ingakuphelisanga oku namhla.
4:1 Ke kaloku wenyuka uBhohazi, waya esangweni lomzi, wahlala khona; nanko egqitha umkhululi lowa abethetha yena uBhohazi; wathi, Wa, Nantsi, khawuphambukele apha, uhlale phantsi.
4:2 Waphambuka, wahlala. Wathabatha ishumi lamadoda kumadoda amakhulu omzi, wathi, Hlalani apha; ahlala ke.
4:3 Wathi kumkhululi lowo, Isahlulo somhlaba obungowomzalwana wethu uElimeleki, uthengise ngaso uNahomi, obuye elizweni lakwaMowabhi;
4:4 ndathi ke mna, mandivule indlebe yakho, ndithi, Wuthenge ngaphambi kwaba bahleliyo apha, phambi kwamadoda amakhulu abantu bakowethu. Ukuba uyawukhulula ngentlawulelo, wukhulule ngentlawulelo; ukuba akuwukhululi ngentlawulelo, ndixelele ndazi; ngokuba akukho bani unokuwukhulula ngentlawulelo, ingenguwe; ndisemva kwakho mna. Wathi, Ndowukhulula ngentlawulelo mna.
4:5 Wathi uBhohazi, Mhlenikweni uwuzuzayo umhlaba esandleni sikaNahomi, uwuzuza nakuRute, umMowabhikazi, umkamfi, ukuba uvuse igama lomfi elifeni lakhe.
4:6 Wathi umkhululi lowo, Andinakuzikhululela ngentlawulelo ngokwam, hleze ndilonakalise elam ilifa. Zikhululele ngentlawulelo isilunga sam eso; ngokuba andinako mna ukuwukhulula ngentlawulelo.
4:7 Ke kaloku kwakusithiwa kudala kwaSirayeli, ukukhulula ngentlawulelo nokwanana, ukuze yonke into ibe iqiniselwe, ubani anyothule imbadada yakhe ayinike ummelwane wakhe; oko kwaye kububungqina kwaSirayeli.
4:8 Wathi umkhululi lowo kuBhohazi, Zithengele. Wanyothula imbadada yakhe.
4:9 Wathi ke uBhohazi kumadoda amakhulu nakubantu bonke, Ningamangqina namhla, ukuba ndikuthengile konke okukaElimeleki, nako konke okukaKiliyon noMalon, esandleni sikaNahomi;
4:10 noRute umMowabhikazi, umkaMalon, ndimzuzile ukuba abe ngumkam, ukuze kuvuswe igama lomfi elifeni lakhe, linganqanyulwa igama lomfi ebazalwaneni bakhe, nasesangweni lendawo yakhe: ningamangqina namhla.
4:11 Bathi bonke abantu abasesangweni namadoda amakhulu, Singamangqina. UYehova makamenze lo mfazi ungenayo endlwini yakho, abe njengoRakeli nanjengoLeya, abayakhayo indlu kaSirayeli bobabini, avelise amandla e-Efrata, akwenzele udumo eBhetelehem;
4:12 indlu yakho ibe njengendlu kaPeretse, awamzalayo uTamare kuYuda, ngembewu leyo aya kukunika uYehova ngale ntombazana.
4:13 UBhohazi wamzeka ke uRute waba ngumkakhe, wamngena; waza uYehova wamnika ukuzala; wazala unyana.
4:14 Bathi abafazi kuNahomi, Makabongwe uYehova ongakuyekelanga uswele umkhululi namhla; igama lakhe malivakale kwaSirayeli;
4:15 abe ngumbuyisi womphefumlo kuwe, nomnqaki wezimvi zakho; ngokuba umolokazana wakho okuthandayo, lowo ulungileyo kuwe ngaphezu koonyana abasixhenxe, umzele.
4:16 UNahomi wamthabatha umntwana lowo, wambeka esifubeni sakhe, waba ngumondli wakhe.
4:17 Lwamthiya igama ummelwanekazi, lwathi, UNahomi uzalelwe unyana, lwathi igama lakhe nguObhedi; yena nguyise kaYese, uyise kaDavide.
4:18 Yiyo le ke inzala kaPeretse: uPeretse wazala uHetseron;
4:19 uHetseron wazala uRam; uRam wazala uAminadabhi;
4:20 uAminadabhi wazala uNashon; uNashon wazala uSalemon;
4:21 uSalemon wazala uBhohazi; uBhohazi wazala uObhedi;
4:22 UObhedi wazala uYese; uYese wazala uDavide.

1:1 Ilizwi likaYehova elafika kuYoweli, unyana kaPetuweli.
1:2 Yivani oku, nina madoda makhulu, nibeke iindlebe, nonke bemi belizwe; kwakha kwakho na oku ngemihla yenu, nangemihla yooyihlo?
1:3 Kuxeleni koonyana benu, oonyana benu bakuxele koonyana babo, oonyana babo bakuxele kwisizukulwana esisemva kwabo.
1:4 Okushiywe ngumqikela kudliwe yinkumbi, okushiywe yinkumbi kudliwe ngumkhothululi, okushiywe ngumkhothululi kudliwe ngumnqunquthi.
1:5 Vukani, manxila, nilile; bhombolozani, nonke baseli bewayini, ngenxa yencindi yewayini; kuba inqunyulwe emlonyeni wenu.
1:6 Kuba ezweni lakowethu kunyuke uhlanga olunamandla, olungenakubalwa; amazinyo alo ngamazinyo engonyama, nawemihlathi alo ngawengonyamakazi.
1:7 Luwubhuqile umdiliya wam, lwawuvikiva umkhiwane wam; luwuchuhe kwathi tu, lwawulahla; amasebe awo asuka aba mhlophe.
1:8 Bhomboloza njengentombi ebhinqe ezirhwexayo, ngenxa yendoda yobutsha bayo.
1:9 Unqamkile endlwini kaYehova umnikelo wokudla nothululwayo; benza isijwili ababingeleli, abalungiseleli bakaYehova.
1:10 Abhuqiwe amasimi, umhlaba wenza isijwili; kuba ibhuqiwe ingqolowa, itshile iwayini entsha, ioli yomile.
1:11 Danani, balimi; bhombolozani, basebenzi bezidiliya, ngenxa yengqolowa nangenxa yerhasi; kuba lutshabalele uvuno lwamasimi.
1:12 Umdiliya utshile, umkhiwane untshwenyile, nomrharnate, kwanamasundu nemiapile; yonke imithi yasendle yomile; ewe, iphelile imihlali, imkile koonyana babantu.
1:13 Bhinqani ezirhwexayo, nimbambazele, babingeleli; bhombolozani, balungiseleli besibingelelo; yizani, lalani ngezirhwexayo bonke ubusuku, balungiseleli boThixo wam; kuba indlu yoThixo wam ivinjiwe umnikelo wokudla nothululwayo.
1:14 Ngcwalisani uzilo, memani ingqungquthela, hlanganisani amadoda amakhulu, bonke abemi belizwe, beze endlwini kaYehova uThixo wenu, nikhale kuYehova.
1:15 Hayi ke, le mini! Kuba isondele imini kaYehova, ivela njengembuqo kuSomandla.
1:16 Akunqumke phambi kwamehlo ethu na ukudla, imivuyo nemigcobo endlwini yoThixo wethu?
1:17 Zibolile iinkozo phantsi kwamagada azo, bachithakele oovimba, athi bhuma amaqonga, kuba itshile ingqolowa.
1:18 Hayi, ukuncwina kwempahla enkulu! Ikhohliwe imihlambi yeenkomo, kuba ingenatyani; nemihlambi yempahla emfutshane ibandezelekile.
1:19 Ndikhala kuwe, Yehova; kuba umlilo uwatshisile amakriwa asentlango, nelangatye layirhawula yonke imithi yasendle.
1:20 Kwanempahla enkulu yasendle itsalela kuwe; kuba itshile imijelo yamanzi, umlilo wawatshisa amakriwa asentlango.
2:1 Vuthelani isigodlo eZiyon, nihlabe umkhosi entabeni yam engcwele. Mabagungqe bonke abemi belizwe, ngokuba isiza imini kaYehova, kuba isondele:
2:2 imini enobumnyama nesithokothoko, imini enamafu, enamafu amnyama, anjengokuthi qhiphu kokusa phezu kweentaba; abantu abaninzi, abanamandla; akuzanga kube nje naphakade, emva kwabo akusayi kuza kubuye kube nje, kude kuse eminyakeni yezizukulwana ngezizukulwana.
2:3 Phambi kwabo kutshisa umlilo; nasemva kwabo kurhawula ilangatye. Ilizwe linjengomyezo we-Eden phambi kwabo; emva kwabo linjengentlango enkangala, nento esindileyo ayi kubakho kulo.
2:4 Injengokubonakala kwamahashe imbonakalo yabo; njengakhwelwayo, benjenjalo ukubaleka.
2:5 Anjengesithonga seenqwelo zokulwa ezincotsheni zeentaba amagqasi abo; njengesithonga selangatye lomlilo otshisa iindiza; njengabantu abanamandla abakhe uluhlu.
2:6 Ebusweni babo ziyazibhijabhija izizwe; bonke ubuso buba luthuthu.
2:7 Bagidima njengamagorha; banyuka udonga njengamadoda okulwa; bahamba elowo ngendlela yakhe, abaphambaphambi emendweni wabo.
2:8 Abagilani, bahamba elowo ngomendo wakhe; bawa nasezikhalini, bangenzakali.
2:9 Baphithizela emzini; babaleka eludongeni; banyuka ezindlwini; bangena ngeefestile njengesela.
2:10 Phambi kwabo uyagungqa umhlaba; liyanyikima izulu. Lisuke laba mnyama ilanga nenyanga, neenkwenkwezi zibufinyezile ubumhlophe bazo.
2:11 UYehova ukhupha izwi lakhe phambi kwempi yakhe; kuba mkhulu kakhulu umkhosi wakhe; kuba unamandla umenzi welizwi lakhe; kuba inkulu imini kaYehova, yoyikeka kunene; ngubani na onokuyinyamezela?
2:12 Nangoku ke, utsho uYehova ukuthi, Buyelani kum ngentliziyo yenu yonke, nangokuzila, nangokulila, nangokumbambazela;
2:13 nikrazule intliziyo yenu, ingabi ziingubo zenu, nibuyele kuYehova uThixo wenu; kuba unobabalo nemfesane, yena uzeka kade umsindo, unenceba enkulu, uyazohlwaya ngenxa yobubi.
2:14 Ngubani na owaziyo? mhlawumbi wobuya azohlwaye, ashiye intsikelelo ngasemva kwakhe, umnikelo wokudla nothululwayo kuYehova uThixo wenu.
2:15 Vuthelani isigodlo eZiyon, ngcwalisani uzilo, memani ingqungquthela.
2:16 Hlanganisani abantu, ngcwalisani ibandla, buthani amadoda amakhulu, hlanganisani iintsapho nabanyayo emabeleni; makaphume umyeni egumbini lakhe, umtshakazi esililini sakhe.
2:17 Mabalile ababingeleli, abalungiseleli bakaYehova, phakathi kwevaranda nesibingelelo, bathi, Yiba nenceba, Yehova, ebantwini bakho, ungalinikeli ilifa lakho ekungcikivweni, ukuba iintlanga zizekelise ngabo, yini na ukuba kuthiwe ezizweni, Uphi na uThixo wabo?
2:18 Waba nobukhwele ke uYehova ngelizwe lakhe, waba nofefe ngabantu bakhe.
2:19 Waphendula uYehova, wathi ebantwini bakhe, Yabonani, ndinithumela ingqolowa, newayini entsha, neoli, eniya kwaneliswa yiyo; ndingabi saninikela ukuba nibe sisingcikivo ezintlangeni.
2:20 Ndiya kumkhwelelisela kude kuni owasentla, ndimgxothele ezweni elingumqwebedu, enkangala; umphambili wakhe usinge kulwandle lwasempumalanga, umqosheliso wakhe kulwandle lwasentshonalanga, kunyuke ukunuka kwakhe, kunyuke ukubola kwakhe, kuba eziphakamisile ukwenza izinto ezinkulu.
2:21 Musa ukoyika, hlabathi, gcoba uvuye; kuba uYehova wenza izinto ezinkulu.
2:22 Musani ukoyika, mpahla inkulu yasendle; kuba amakriwa asentlango aphuma uhlaza; kuba umthi uxakatha isiqhamo sawo, umkhiwane nomdiliya unika amandla awo.
2:23 Nani, nyana baseZiyon, gcobani nivuye kuYehova uThixo wenu; kuba uninika umyaleli wokuba kubekho ubulungisa, anihlisele umvumbi, imvula ethambisayo nemvula evuthisayo ekuqaleni.
2:24 Zozala izanda yingqolowa, iphalale yiwayini entsha nayioli imikhombe yokukhongozela.
2:25 Ndonibuyiselela okweminyaka eyadliwa yinkumbi, nangumkhothululi, nangumqikela, nangumnqunquthi, impi yam enkulu endayithumelayo phakathi kwenu.
2:26 Niya kudla nidlile, nihluthe, nilidumise igama likaYehova uThixo wenu, oniphethe ngokubalulekileyo; bangadani abantu bam naphakade;
2:27 nazi ukuba ndiphakathi kwamaSirayeli; ukuba mna Yehova ndinguThixo wenu, akukho wumbi; bangadani abantu bam naphakade.
2:28 Kuya kuthi emveni kokuba njalo, ndithulule uMoya wam phezu kwenyama yonke, baprofete oonyana benu neentombi zenu; amadoda enu amakhulu aphuphe amaphupha, amadodana enu abone imibono.
2:29 Kwanaphezu kwabakhonzi naphezu kwabakhonzazana ndothulula uMoya wam ngaloo mihla.
2:30 Ndiya kwenza izimanga ezulwini nasehlabathini, igazi nomlilo nemiqulu yomsi.
2:31 Ilanga liya kusuka libe mnyama, nenyanga ibe ligazi, phambi kokuba ifike imini kaYehova, leyo inkulu yoyikekayo.
2:32 Bothi bonke abasukuba benqula igama likaYehova, basinde; kuba entabeni yaseZiyon naseYerusalem kuya kubakho abasindileyo, njengoko watshoyo uYehova; naphakathi kwabaseleyo kubekho awobabiza uYehova.
3:1 Ngokuba, yabonani, ngayo loo mihla, nangalo elo xesha, ndiya kukubuyisa ngalo ukuthinjwa kukaYuda neYerusalem,
3:2 ndozibutha zonke iintlanga, ndizihlisele entilini yakwaYoshafati; ndimangalelane nazo khona ngenxa yabantu bam, ilifa lam amaSirayeli, ezibathe saa ezintlangeni, zalaba ilizwe lam.
3:3 Abantu bam zibenzele amaqashiso, zavuza ihenyukazi ngenkwenkwe; zathengisa ngentombi ngewayini, zasela.
3:4 Kananjalo niya kundenza ntoni na nina, Tire, nawe, Tsidon, nani, mida yonke yamaFilisti? Niya kundibuyekeza impatho yam na? Niya kundenza ntoni na? Kwakamsinya, ngokukhawulezayo, ndiya kukubuyisela ukuphatha kwenu entlokweni yenu.
3:5 Ekubeni nithabathe isilivere yam negolide yam, izinto zamezintle ezinqwenelekayo, nazisa etempileni yenu;
3:6 nathengisa ngoonyana bakaYuda nangoonyana baseYerusalem koonyana bakaYavan, ukuze nibakhwelelisele kude emdeni wabo;
3:7 yabonani, ndiyabaxhoxha endaweni enathengisa ngabo kuyo, ndikubuyisele ukuphatha kwenu entlokweni yenu.
3:8 Ndothengisa ngoonyana benu nangeentombi zenu esandleni soonyana bakaYuda, bathengise ngabo kumaShebha, kuhlanga olukude; kuba uthethile uYehova.
3:9 Memezani oku ezintlangeni, ngcwalisani imfazwe; xhoxhani amagorha; makafike enyuke onke amadoda okulwa.
3:10 Khandani amakhuba enu abe ngamakrele, nezitshetshe zenu zemidiliya zibe zizikhali;
3:11 oswele amandla makathi, Ndiligorha. Khawulezani nize, nonke zintlanga zangeenxa zonke, nibuthelane; wahlisele khona amagorha akho, Yehova.
3:12 Mazixhoxhwe zinyuke iintlanga, ziye entilini yakwaYoshafati; ngokuba ndiya kuhlala phantsi khona, ukuze ndizigwebe zonke iintlanga zangeenxa zonke.
3:13 Fakani irhengqa, kuba ukudla kuvuthiwe; yizani nixovule, ngokuba isixovulelo sewayini sizele, iyaphalala imikhombe yokukhongozela; kuba bukhulu ububi bazo.
3:14 Yimbuthumbuthu, yimbuthumbuthu entilini yesigqibo! Kuba isondele imini kaYehova entilini yesigqibo.
3:15 Ilanga nenyanga zenziwe mnyama, iinkwenkwezi zikufinyezile ukukhanya kwazo.
3:16 UYehova ubharhula eZiyon, ukhupha ilizwi lakhe eYerusalem, linyikime izulu nehlabathi; ke uYehova ulihlathi kubantu bakhe, uligwiba koonyana bakaSirayeli.
3:17 Niya kwazi ke ukuba mna Yehova ndinguThixo wenu, ohleli eZiyon, entabeni yam engcwele; iYerusalem yoba ngcwele, abasemzini bangabi sacanda phakathi kwayo.
3:18 Kuya kuthi ngaloo mini, iintaba zivuze incindi yeediliya, iinduli ziphalale amasi, imijelo yonke yakwaYuda iphalale amanzi; kuphume umthombo endlwini kaYehova, useze isihlambo semingampunzi.
3:19 IYiputa kuya kuba senkangala, nelakwaEdom libe yintlango esenkangala, ngenxa yokugonyamela kwabo oonyana bakaYuda, ekubeni bephalaze igazi elimsulwa ezweni labo.
3:20 Ke uYuda uya kumiwa ngonaphakade, iYerusalem imiwe kwizizukulwana ngezizukulwana.
3:21 Ndiya kulisula igazi labo endandingalisulanga; ngokuba uYehova uhleli eZiyon.

1:1 Yoo! Uhleli wodwa, umzi obantu baye bebaninzi; Obe umkhulu ezintlangeni Usuke waba njengomhlolokazi; umthethelikazi emazweni Usuke waba ngofakwa uviko.
1:2 Ulila elilile ebusuku, iinyembezi zakhe zisezidleleni zakhe; Akanamthuthuzeli kuzo zonke izithandane zakhe; Onke amakholwane akhe ammenezelele, Aba lutshaba kuye.
1:3 UYuda uye ekuthinjweni, ephuma ezintsizini nasezinkonzweni ezininzi; Yena uhleli ezintlangeni, akafumani kuphumla; Bonke abamsukelayo bamfikele ezingxingongweni.
1:4 Iindlela zaseZiyon zenza isijwili, ngokungabikho kwabaya emithendelekweni; Onke amasango ayo akanamntu, ababingeleli bayo bayancwina; Iintombi zayo zinosizi, yona ke kukrakra kuyo.
1:5 Ababandezeli bayo basuka bayintloko; iintshaba zayo zinobunqobo; Ngokuba uYehova uyenze yanosizi ngenxa yokreqo lwayo oluninzi; Abantwana bayo bemkile, bathinjiwe, baqhutywa ngumbandezeli.
1:6 Buphumile entombini enguZiyon bonke ubungangamsha bayo; Abathetheli bayo baba njengamaxhama angafumani dlelo, Ahamba engenamandla phambi komsukeli.
1:7 IYerusalem iyazikhumbula, ngemini yeentsizi zayo neyokudinga kwayo, Zonke izinto zayo ezinqwenelekayo ebinazo kwakwiimini zamandulo, Ekuweni kwabantu bayo esandleni sombandezeli, ingenamncedi; Ababandezeli bayo bayibona, bakuhleka ukucinywa kwayo.
1:8 IYerusalem asikuko nokuba yonile yona; ngenxa yoko yaba lubhorha; Bonke ababeyizukisa bayayicukuceza, ngokuba babone ubuze bayo; Nayo ngokwayo iyancwina, ibuye umva.
1:9 Ubunqambi bayo busezingutyeni zayo ezirhuqayo, ayilikhumbulelanga ikamva layo; Yehla ke ngokubalulekileyo; ayinamthuthuzeli; Ithi, Zikhangele, Yehova, iintsizi zam; ngokuba utshaba luzikhulisile.
1:10 Umbandezeli usolule isandla sakhe phezu kwezinto zayo zonke ezinqwenelekayo; Kuba ibona iintlanga zingene engcweleni yayo, Owawuwise umthetho wena, ukuba zingangeni ebandleni lakho.

2:7 INkosi yam isihlambele isibingelelo sayo, ithe nethe kuyo ingcwele yayo, Izivingcelele esandleni sotshaba iindonga zeengxande zayo ezinde; Baxokozela endlwini kaYehova njengemini yomthendeleko.
2:8 UYehova ucinge ukonakalisa udonga lwentombi enguZiyon; Wolule ulutya lokulinganisela, akasibuyisa isandla sakhe ekuginyeni; Wenza ungqameko lomsele lwaba nesijwili, kwanodonga; zithokombisile kunye ezo zinto.
2:9 Amasango ayo atshonile emhlabeni; uyitshabalalisile, uyaphule imivalo yayo; Ukumkani wayo nabathetheli bayo basezintlangeni, akukho myalelo; Abaprofeti bayo abafumani mbono kuYehova.

2:14 Abaprofeti bakho bakubonele imibono yento engento nejavujavu; Ababutyhila ubugwenxa bakho, ukuba kubuyiswe ukuthinjwa kwakho; Bakubonele imibono ezizihlabo ezingezizo, nezokugxothwa.
2:15 Babetha izandla ngawe bonke abadlula ngendlela; Benza umsondlo, bahlunguzele iintloko ngentombi enguYerusalem, besithi, Ngulo mzi na, lo kuthiwa kuphela kwenzwakazi, yimihlali yehlabathi lonke?
