Chapter 18
1 Ngelo lixa beza abafundi kuYesu, besithi, Ngubani na ke omkhulu kunabanye, ebukumkanini bamazulu?
2 UYesu wabizela kuye umntwana, wammisa phakathi kwabo.
3 Wathi, Inene, ndithi kuni, Ukuba anithanga niguquke, nibe njengabantwana aba, aniyi kukha ningene ebukumkanini bamazulu.
4 Osukuba ngoko ethe wazithoba njengalo mntwana nguye omkhulu kunabanye ebukumkanini bamazulu.
5 Kanjalo othe wamkela umntwana onje, noko amnye, egameni lam, wamkela mna.
6 Ke othe wakhubekisa noko amnye waba bancinane bakholwayo kum, ebelungelwe kanye kukuba anxitywe ilitye lokusila entanyeni, antywiliselwe enzulwini yolwandle.
7 Yeha ihlabathi ngezikhubekiso! kuba azinakuba zingezi izikhubekiso; kodwa yeha loo mntu siza ngaye isikhubekiso!
8 Ukuba ke isandla sakho, nokuba lunyawo lwakho, luya kukhubekisa, lunqamle, ululahle: kukulungele ukuba ungene ebomini usisiqhwala, mhlawumbi usisilima, kunokuba uthi, unezandla ezibini, mhlawumbi uneenyawo ezimbini, uphoswe emlilweni ongunaphakade.
9 Nokuba iliso lakho liya kukhubekisa, lincothule, ulilahle; kukulungele ukuba ungene ebomini unaliso linye, kunokuba uthi, unamehlo amabini, uphoswe esihogweni somlilo.
10 Lumkani, ningadeli namnye waba bancinane; kuba ndithi kuni, Izithunywa zabo emazulwini zihlala zibubona ubuso bukaBawo osemazulwini.
11 Kuba uNyana woMntu weza kusindisa oko kulahlekileyo.
12 Nithini na nina? Ukuba umntu uthe wanekhulu lezimvu, ize kulahleke enye kuzo, akazishiyi na ezimashumi asithoba anesithoba ezintabeni, aye afune leyo ilahlekileyo?
13 Ukuba uthe wayifumana, inene ndithi kuni, uyayivuyela leyo ngaphezu kokuvuyela ezo zimashumi asithoba anesithoba, zingalahlekanga.
14 Kwangokunjalo asikukuthanda kukaYihlo osemazulwini, ukuba kulahleke namnye waba bancinane.
15 Ukuba ke umzalwana wakho uthe wakona, yiya umohlwaye inguwe naye ninedwa; ukuba uthe wakuva, woba umzuzile umzalwana wakho.
16 Ke ukuba uthe akeva buya uthabathe nawe abe mnye nokuba babini, ukuze onke amazwi amiswe ngomlomo wamangqina amabini, nokuba ngamathathu.
17 Ukuba ke uthe akabeva, xelela ibandla; ukuba ke uthe akaliva nebandla, kuwe makabe njengoweentlanga nombuthi werhafu.
18 Inene, ndithi kuni, Konke enithe nakubopha emhlabeni, kobotshwa emazulwini; nako konke enithe nakukhulula emhlabeni, kokhululwa emazulwini.
19 Kanjalo ndithi kuni, Ukuba ababini kuni bathe bavumelana emhlabeni apha ngeendawo zonke abangazicelayo, bozenzelwa nguBawo osemazulwini.
20 Kuba apho bahlanganisene khona egameni lam, nokuba babini nokuba bathathu, ndikho mna apho phakathi kwabo.
21 Kwandula kweza uPetros kuye wathi, Nkosi, koba futhi kangaphi na umzalwana wam endona, ndimxolela? Koda kube kasixhenxe na?
22 Athi uYesu kuye, Andithi kuwe, koda kube kasixhenxe; ndithi, koda kube kamashumi asixhenxe aphindiweyo kasixhenxe.
23 Ngenxa yoko ubukumkani bamazulu bufanekiswa nomntu ongukumkani, owafuna ukubalelana nabakhonzi bakhe.
24 Kuthe ke akuqala ukubalelana nabo, kwaziswa kuye omnye onetyala leetalente ezingamawaka alishumi.
25 Kuthe ke ekubeni engenanto yakuhlawula, yathi inkosi yakhe, makuthengiswe ngaye, nangomfazi wakhe, nangabantwana bakhe, nangeento zonke anazo, kuhlawulwe.
26 Wawa phantsi ngoko umkhonzi lowo, waqubuda kuyo, esithi, Nkosi, khawundenze kuhle, ndokuhlawula lonke.
27 Yasikwa ke yimfesane inkosi yaloo mkhonzi, yamkhulula, yamxolela ityala elo.
28 Uphumile ke loo mkhonzi, wafumanana nomnye wabakhonza kunye naye obenetyala kuye leedenariyo ezilikhulu; wambamba, wamkrwitsha, esithi, Ndihlawule ityala onalo.
29 Wawa phantsi ngoko ezinyaweni zakhe lo ubekhonza kunye naye, wamana embongoza, esithi, Khawundenze kuhle, ndokuhlawula lonke.
30 Akavumanga ke; waya wamphosa entolongweni, ade alihlawule ityala elo.
31 Bathi ke abo babekhonza kunye naye, bakubona oko kwenzekileyo, baba buhlungu kakhulu, beza bayityela inkosi yabo konke oko kwenzekileyo.
32 Yaza inkosi yakhe, imbizele kuyo, yathi kuye, Mkhonzindini ungendawo, ndakuxolela lonke elaa tyala, ekubeni wandibongo zayo;
33 ubungamelwe na kukuba ube nenceba nawe kokhonza kunye nawe, njengokuba nam bendinenceba kuwe?
34 Yaqumba inkosi yakhe, yamnikela kubathuthumbisi, ade alihlawule lonke ityala lakhe kuyo.
35 Wothi noBawo wasemazulwini enjenjalo kuni, ukuba anithanga nonke ngabanye nabaxolela abazalwana benu iziphoso zabo ngeentliziyo zenu.

Chapter 3
1 Ngoku ndinibhalela, zintanda, le ncwadi iyeyesibini, endithi kuzo zombini ndiyivuselele ingqondo yenu engcwengekileyo ngokunikhumbuza;
2 ukuba niwakhumbule amazwi abethethiwe ngenxa engaphambili ngabaprofeti abangcwele, nawo umthetho wabapostile bethu beNkosi uMsindisi;
3 nikwazi nje oku kuqala, ukuba kuya kuza ngemihla yokugqibela abagxeki, behamba ngokwezabo iinkanuko,
4 besithi, Liphi na kaloku idinga lokufika kwakhe? Kuba kuseloko oobawo balalayo ukufa, izinto zonke zahlala zihleli zinjengokwasekuqalekeni kwendalo.
5 Kuba oku kufihlakele kubo ngokuthanda kwabo, ukuba izulu laye likho kwakudala, nomhlaba uvele emanzini, umi ngamanzi, ngalo ilizwi likaThixo;
6 elathi ngezo zinto ihlabathi langoko lantywiliselwa ngamanzi, latshabalala.
7 Ke lona izulu langoku, nawo umhlaba lo, kwangelo lizwi ezo zinto ziqwetyelwe, zigcinelwe, umlilo, kuse kwimini yomgwebo nentshabalalo yabantu abangahloneli Thixo.
8 Le nto ke inye mayingafihlakali kuni, zintanda, ukuba phambi kweNkosi imini enye injengeminyaka eliwaka, neminyaka eliwaka injengemini enye.
9 INkosi ayilibali dinga, njengoko abathile baba iyalibala; isuka izeke kade umsindo kuthi, ingangi kungatshabalala nabani; inga bonke bangasinga enguqukweni.
10 Iya kufika ke imini yeNkosi njengesela ebusuku, eliya kuthi ngayo izulu lidlule liqhuqhumba, zithi ke iziqalelo zitshe, zichithakale, nomhlaba nayo imisebenzi ekuwo itshiswe kuthi tu.
11 Ezo zinto zonke ngoku zichithakala nje, nimele ukuba ngabanjani na ngeehambo ezingcwele nokuhlonela uThixo;
12 nikulindela, nikukhawulezela, ukufika kwayo imini kaThixo, eliya kuthi ngenxa yayo izulu lifakwe isikhuni, lichithakale, zithi neziqalelo zitshe zinyibilike?
13 Thina ke ngokwedinga lakhe silinde elitsha izulu, nomtsha umhlaba, apho kumi ubulungisa.
14 Kungoko, zintanda, nilindele ezo zinto nje, khuthalelani ukuba nifunyanwe kuye niseluxolweni, ningenabala, ningenasiphako.
15 Ukuzeka kade umsindo kweNkosi yethu kubaleleni ekuthini lusindiso, njengoko wanibhalelayo nomzalwana wethu oyintanda, uPawulos, ngokobulumko awabunikwayo;
16 njengokuba, nasezincwadini zakhe zonke, ethetha kuzo ngezo ndawo; ekukhoyo kuzo zithile ziqiqeka nzima, abathi abangafundileyo, nabangazimasekileyo, bazigqwethele kokwabo ukutshabalala, njengokuba bezenjenjalo nezinye izibhalo.
17 Nina ngoko, zintanda, nizazi nje ngenxa engaphambili ezo zinto, zigcineni okwenu, ukuze ningathi, nikhukuliswe lulahlekiso lwabangenammiselo, niphalale kokukokwenu ukuqina.
18 Khulani ke elubabalweni na sekuyazini iNkosi yethu, uMsindisi uYesu Kristu. Kuye malubekho uzuko nangoku, kuse nakwimini engunaphakade. Amen.

9 Wahlala ngasempumalanga, wesa entlango ethabathela emlanjeni ongumEfrati; ngokuba imfuyo yabo yayandile ezweni laseGiliyadi.
10 Ngemihla kaSawule benza imfazwe namaHagari; awela esandleni sabo. Bahlala ezintenteni zawo, ngecala lasempumalanga lonke laseGiliyadi.
11 Ke kaloku oonyana bakaGadi bahlala malungana nabo ezweni laseBhashan, besa eSaleka;
12 nguYoweli intloko, noShafam onganeno, noYanayi, noShafati eBhashan.
13 Nabazalwana babo bendlu yooyise ngooMikayeli, noMeshulam, noShebha, noYorayi, noYakan, noZiya, noEbhere; basixhenxe abo.
14 Ngabo aba oonyana baka-Abhihayili, unyana kaHuri, unyana kaYarowa, unyana kaGiliyadi, unyana kaMikayeli, unyana kaYeshishayi, unyana kaYado, unyana kaBhuzi:

16 Bahlala eGiliyadi naseBhashan, nasemagxamesini ayo, nasemadlelweni onke aseSharon, kwesa ekupheleni kwawo.
17 Bonke abo babhalwa emilibeni yokuzalwa ngemihla kaYotam ukumkani wakwaYuda, nangemihla kaYarobheham ukumkani wakwaSirayeli.

19 Benza imfazwe namaHagari, noYeture, noNafishe, noNodabhi.
20 Bancediswa kuwo, amaHagari anikelwa esandleni sabo, nabo bonke abebenawo. Ngokuba balila kuThixo ekulweni, wathandazeka ngabo; ngokuba babekholose ngaye.

22 Ngokuba kwawa babaninzi ababuleweyo; ngokuba yayiphuma kuThixo imfazwe leyo. Bahlala ezikhundleni zabo, bada bathinjwa.
23 Ke kaloku oonyana besiqingatha sesizwe sakwaManase bahlala kwelo zwe; bathabathela eBhashan, besa eBhahali-hermon, naseSenire, nasentabeni yeHermon, ukuba baninzi kwabo.

INQAKU ELINGUMXHOLO | ITHINI IBHAYIBHILE NGOBOMI NOKUFA?
Ithini IBhayibhile Ngobomi Nokufa?
Kwingxelo yendalo ekwiGenesis, sifunda ukuba uThixo wathi kwindoda yokuqala, uAdam: “Kuyo yonke imithi yomyezo ungadla wanele. Kodwa wona umthi wokwazi okulungileyo nokubi uze ungadli kuwo, kuba mhla uthe wadla kuwo uya kufa ngokuqinisekileyo.” (Genesis 2:16, 17) Loo mazwi abonisa mhlophe ukuba uAdam wayengazukufa ukuba wayemthobele uThixo kodwa wayeza kuqhubeka ephila kumyezo wase-Eden.
Okulusizi kukuba, endaweni yokukhetha ukuthobela ukuze aphile ngonaphakade, uAdam wakhetha ukungawuthobeli umthetho kaThixo. Watya isiqhamo somthi awayesinikwa ngumfazi wakhe uEva, ababengavumelekanga ukuba batye kuwo. (Genesis 3:1-6) Sisathwaxwa yimiphumo yokungathobeli kwabo nanamhlanje. Umpostile uPawulos wayichaza ngale ndlela le nto: “Isono sangena ngamntu mnye ehlabathini nokufa ngaso isono, ngaloo ndlela ukufa kwasasazeka kubo bonke abantu ngenxa yokuba bonke bonayo.” (Roma 5:12) Loo ‘mntu mnye’ yayinguAdam ngenkqu. Kodwa sasiyintoni isono ibe kwakutheni ukuze sibangele ukufa?
Ukungathobeli kuka-Adam okanye ukwaphula umthetho kaThixo ngabom, kwaba sisono. (1 Yohane 3:4) Isohlwayo sesono kukufa, kanye njengokuba watshoyo uThixo kuAdam. Ukuba uAdam nenzala yakhe babewuthobele umthetho kaThixo, babengazukuba nasono ibe babengazukufa. UThixo akazange abadalele ukuba bafe abantu kodwa wayefuna baphile ngonaphakade.
Asinakuyiphika into yokuba ukufa “kwasasazeka kubo bonke,” njengoko yatshoyo iBhayibhile. Kodwa ngaba ikho into eqhubeka iphila xa sisifa? Abanye basenokuthi ewe, umphefumlo wona awufi. Le nto ibiya kuthetha ukuba uThixo waxoka kuAdam. Ngoba? Kuba xa sinento eqhubeka iphila kwenye indawo emva kokuba sifile, loo nto ithetha ukuba ukufa akusiso isohlwayo sesono, njengokuba uThixo watshoyo. IBhayibhile ithi: ‘Akunakwenzeka ukuba uThixo axoke.’ (Hebhere 6:18) Inyani kukuba, nguSathana owaxokayo kuEva esithi: “Ngokuqinisekileyo anisayi kufa.”—Genesis 3:4.
Xa kunjalo ke umbuzo ngulo, ukuba ibubuxoki into yokuba umphefumlo awufi, kwenzeka ntoni kanye kanye xa umntu efile?
IBHAYIBHILE ISIXELELA EYONA NYANI
IGenesis ithi ngendalo: “Wandula ke uYehova uThixo wabumba umntu ngothuli lomhlaba waza wavuthela impefumlo yobomi emathatheni akhe, umntu ke waba ngumphefumlo ophilayo.” Ibinzana elithi ‘umphefumlo ophilayo [umntu ophilayo]’ liguqulelwe kwigama lesiHebhere elithi, ne’phesh, * ngokoqobo elithetha ukuthi “isidalwa esiphefumlayo.”—Genesis 2:7.
IBhayibhile yenza kucace ukuba abantu abadalwanga benomphefumlo ongafiyo. Endaweni yoko, mntu ngamnye “ngumphefumlo ophilayo.” Noba ungakhangela kweyiphi iBhayibhile, soze ufumane ndawo ithetha “ngomphefumlo ongafiyo.”
Ekubeni kungekho ndawo ithetha ngomphefumlo ongafiyo eBhayibhileni, kutheni iinkonzo ezininzi zifundisa ngawo? Impendulo isibuyisela kwiYiputa yakudala.
UKUNWENWA KWEMFUNDISO YOBUHEDENI
UHerodotus, umbhali-mbali ongumGrike owayephila kwiminyaka yoo-400 wathi “abantu bokuqala abamela into yokungafi komphefumlo” yayingamaYiputa. Abanye abantu bakudala ababezonwabisa ngale nto yokungafi komphefumlo, ngamaBhabhiloni. Xa uAleksandire Omkhulu woyisa amazwe akuMbindi Mpuma ngo-332 B.C.E., iintandabulumko zamaGrike zazisele zizalise ngale mfundiso kubo bonke uBukhosi bamaGrike.
Soze ufumane ndawo ithetha “ngomphefumlo ongafiyo” eBhayibhileni
Kwinkulungwane yokuqala, amaqela amabini aziwayo eenkonzo zamaYuda, amaEssene nabaFarisi, afundisa ukuba umphefumlo awufi xa umntu esifa. IThe Jewish Encyclopedia ithi: “Yimfundiso yamaGrike eyabangela ukuba amaYuda akholelwe ekubeni umphefumlo awufi, kodwa eyona nto yayifaka kakhulu le nkolelo yintanda-bulumko kaPlato.” Nombhali-mbali wenkulungwane yokuqala, uJosephus ongumYuda wayidibanisa le mfundiso “nenkolo yoonyana baseGrisi,” kungekhona neZibhalo Ezingcwele, futhi wayesithi lelinye lamabali obuxoki.
Njengoko abantu abaninzi babezamkela iimfundiso zamaGrike, nabo bazibiza ngokuba ngamaKristu bayithathela kubo le mfundiso. Umbhali-mbali uJona Lendering wathi, “Imfundiso kaPlato yokuba umphefumlo wawukhe wakwindawo ephakamileyo ibe ngoku ukwihlabathi eliwohlokileyo, yenza kwalula ukudibanisa intandabulumko kaPlato nobuKristu.” Ngenxa yoko, le mfundiso yobuhedeni yokungafi komphefumlo yangena nakwicawa “yobuKristu” yaza yabaluleka ngaphezu kwazo zonke ezinye iimfundiso.
“INYANISO IYA KUNIKHULULA”
Kwinkulungwane yokuqala, umpostile uPawulos walumkisa wathi: “Ilizwi eliphefumlelweyo lithi ngokuqinisekileyo kuya kubakho ixesha laxa abathile beya kuphambuka elukholweni, benikela ingqalelo kumazwi aphefumlelweyo alahlekisayo nakwiimfundiso zeedemon.” (1 Timoti 4:1) Kuye kwacaca ukuba yinyani kwala mazwi. Imfundiso yokungafi komphefumlo ngomnye wemizekelo ‘yemfundiso yeedemon.’ IBhayibhile ayithethi ngayo, ibe ivela kwiicawa zakudala zobuhedeni neentandabulumko.
Thina ke siyavuya kuba uYesu wathi: “Niya kuyazi inyaniso, yaye inyaniso iya kunikhulula.” (Yohane 8:32) Ukwazi eyona nto ithethwa yiBhayibhile, kusenze sakhululeka kwiimfundiso ezimdelelayo uThixo ezisasazwa ziicawa zeli hlabathi. Ngaphezu koko, iBhayibhile isikhulula kumakhamandela ezithethe neentsomi ezithethwayo ngokufa.—Funda ibhokisi ethi, “ Baphi Abafileyo?”
UMdali wethu akazange asidalele ukuba siphile iminyaka eyi-70 okanye eyi-80 emhlabeni size siye kuphila ngonaphakade kwenye indawo. Wayefuna siphile ngonaphakade apha emhlabeni, simthobele. Injongo yakhe ibonisa ukuba uyasithanda ibe ayisoze inqandwe mntu. (Malaki 3:6) Umdumisi usenza singakuthandabuzi oko xa esithi: “Amalungisa aya kuwudla ilifa umhlaba, ahlale kuwo ngonaphakade.”—INdumiso 37:29.
^ isiqe. 9 Ezinye iinguqulelo zeBhayibhile, njengeBhayibhile YesiXhosa ka-1975, yona iguqulela igama elithi ne’phesh ngokuthi “umphefumlo ophilayo,” ngoxa iBhayibhile YesiXhosa ka-1996 iliguqulela ngokuthi “umntu ophilayo.”

UMoses—Indoda Eyayinokholo
YINTONI UKHOLO?
Xa lisetyenziswe eBhayibhileni, igama elithi “ukholo” lithetha inkolelo esekelwe kubungqina obucacileyo. Umntu onokholo kuThixo uqinisekile ukuba uza kuzizalisekisa zonke izithembiso zakhe.
UMOSES WALUBONAKALISA NJANI UKHOLO?
UMoses wenza izigqibo ezibonisa ukuba uyazikholelwa izithembiso zikaThixo. (Genesis 22:15-18) Ngewayephile ubomi obutofotofo eYiputa, kodwa wancama yonke loo nto, “enyula ukuphathwa kabuhlungu kunye nabantu bakaThixo kunokuziyolisa ngesono okwexeshana.” (Hebhere 11:25) Ngaba eso sigqibo wasenza engakhange acingisise kakuhle, waza kamva wazisola? Hayi. Kaloku iBhayibhile ithi uMoses “waqhubeka eqinile ngokungathi uyambona Lowo ungabonakaliyo.” (Hebhere 11:27) UMoses akazange azisole ngezigqibo awazenza eqhutywa lukholo.
UMoses wanceda abanye ukuze babe nokholo kuThixo. Ngokomzekelo, makhe sithethe ngoko kwenzekayo xa kwakubonakala ngathi amaSirayeli aza kuhlaselwa ngumkhosi kaFaro kuLwandle Olubomvu. Egubha luloyiko kuba ebona ngathi aza kubulawa, amaSirayeli akhala kuYehova nakuMoses. Wayeza kwenza ntoni uMoses?
UMoses ufanele ukuba wayengazi ukuba uThixo uza kwahlula uLwandle Olubomvu phakathi ukuze asindise amaSirayeli. Sekunjalo, wayeqinisekile ukuba uThixo uza kubakhusela abantu Bakhe. UMoses wayefuna ukuba amaSirayeli amthembe njengaye uThixo. Sifunda oku: “Wathi uMoses ebantwini: ‘Musani ukoyika. Yimani ngokuqinileyo, nilubone usindiso lukaYehova, aya kunenzela lona namhlanje.’” (Eksodus 14:13) Ngaba uMoses wakwazi ukuqinisa ukholo lwamaSirayeli? Ewe wakwazi, kuba kaloku iBhayibhile ithi ngoMoses namaSirayeli: “Ngokholo badlula kuLwandle Olubomvu ngokungathi kukumhlaba owomileyo.” (Hebhere 11:29) Ukholo lukaMoses lwanceda yena nabo bonke abo bafundayo kumzekelo wakhe.
YINTONI THINA ESINOKUYIFUNDA?
Nathi sinokuxelisa uMoses ngokuphila ngendlela ebonisa ukuba sinokholo kwizithembiso zikaThixo. Ngokomzekelo, uThixo uthembisa ukusinika izinto eziyimfuneko ukuze siqhubeke siphila, ukuba simbeka kwindawo yokuqala ebomini bethu. (Mateyu 6:33) Enyanisweni, lo moya uphandl’ apha wokufuna izinto eziphathekayo uyahenda. Kodwa ke, siqinisekile ukuba uYehova uya kusinika konke esikusweleyo ukuba sizimisela ukuphila ubomi obulula, kuze ukukhonza uThixo kube yeyona nto iphambili kuthi. Uthi: “Andiyi kuze ndikushiye, ndingayi kuze ndikutyeshele.”—Hebhere 13:5.
Kwakhona, sifanele sizame ukunceda abanye babe nokholo. Ngokomzekelo, abazali abalumkileyo bayaqonda ukuba bafanele bancede abantwana babo babe nokholo. Njengoko bekhula, abantwana bafanele bafundiswe ukuba uThixo uyaphila yaye usinike imithetho yokulungileyo nokungalunganga. Kwakhona, bafanele baqonde ukuba ukuthobela uThixo yeyona nto iluncedo ebomini. (Isaya 48:17, 18) Abazali babanika esona sipho sixabisekileyo abantwana babo xa bebanceda bazi ukuba uThixo “ukho nokuba ungumvuzi wabo bamfuna ngenyameko.”—Hebhere 11:6.

Chapter 10
1 URehabheham waya kwaShekem; ngokuba amaSirayeli onke abeye kumenza ukumkani kwaShekem.
2 Kwathi, akuva uYarobheham unyana kaNebhati (eseYiputa, apho wayebalekele khona ebusweni bukaSolomon ukumkani; ehleli uYarobheham eYiputa, bathumela bambiza),
3 weza uYarobheham namaSirayeli onke, bathetha noRehabheham, besithi,
4 Uyihlo wayenza nzima idyokhwe yethu; ke wena yenze lula inkonzo elukhuni kayihlo, nedyokhwe yakhe enzima awayibeka phezu kwethu, sikukhonze.
5 Wathi kubo, Khanindikhwelele iintsuku zibe ntathu, nibuye nize kum. Bemka ke abantu.
6 Ukumkani uRehabheham wacebisana namadoda amakhulu, abesakuma phambi koSolomon uyise oko ebesahleli, wathi, Ninika cebo lini na, ukuba ndibanike ilizwi aba bantu?
7 Athetha ke kuye esithi, Ukuba uthe wanobubele kwaba bantu, wabakholisa, wathetha amazwi amahle kubo, bokukhonza yonke imihla.
8 Walishiya icebo lamadoda amakhulu abemnike lona, wacebisana namadodana aziintanga zakhe, abemi phambi kwakhe.
9 Wathi kuwo, Ninika cebo lini na nina, ukuba sibanike ilizwi aba bantu bathethileyo kum, besithi. Yenze lula idyokhwe awayibeka phezu kwethu uyihlo?
10 Athetha ke naye amadodana aziintanga zakhe, esithi, Yithi kubantu abathethe kuwe, besithi, Uyihlo wayenza nzima idyokhwe yethu, yenze lula kuthi wena; yithi kubo, Ucikicane wam uya kuba nesibili kunesinqe sikabawo;
11 ke, ekubeni ubawo ubenithwalise idyokhwe enzima, mna ke ndiya kongeza edyokhweni yenu; ubawo ubenibetha ngeentsontelo, ke mna ndiya kunibetha ngeekatsi.
12 Baya ke ooYarobheham nabantu bonke kuRehabheham ngomhla wesithathu, njengoko wayethethe ngako ukumkani, esithi, Nobuya nize kum ngomhla wesithathu.
13 Ukumkani wabaphendula kalukhuni; ukumkani uRehabheham walishiya icebo lamadoda amakhulu.
14 Wathetha kubo ngokwecebo lamadodana, esithi, Ubawo wayenza nzima idyokhwe yenu, mna ke ndiya kongeza kuyo; ubawo wanibetha ngeentsontelo, ke mna ndiya kunibetha ngeekatsi.
15 Akabaphulaphulanga ke abantu ukumkani; ngokuba esi siphendu sibe siphuma kuThixo, ukuze uYehova alimise ilizwi lakhe, abelithethile ngoAhiya waseShilo kuYarobheham unyana kaNebhati.
16 Akubona ke onke amaSirayeli ukuba ukumkani akawaphulaphuli, abantu bambuyisela ukumkani ilizwi elithi, Sinasabelo sini na kuDavide? Asinalifa kunyana kaYese; elowo makaye ententeni yakhe, maSirayeli; zikhangelele ngoku indlu yakho, Davide. Aya ezintenteni zawo ke amaSirayeli onke.
17 Ke oonyana bakaSirayeli, ababehleli emizini yakwaYuda, uRehabheham waba ngukumkani kubo.
18 Ukumkani uRehabheham wathuma uAdoram, obephethe abafakwa uviko. Besuka oonyana bakaSirayeli, bamxuluba ngamatye, wafa. Ukumkani uRehabheham wakhawuleza waya kukhwela enqwelweni yakhe, ukuba asabele eYerusalem.
19 Akreqa ke amaSirayeli endlwini kaDavide, unanamhla.

Zixabise Ngokupheleleyo Iimpawu ZikaYehova
“Yibani ngabaxelisa uThixo, njengabantwana abaziintanda.” —EFE. 5:1.
1. (a) Ziziphi iimpawu zikaYehova anokucinga ngazo umKristu? (b) Yintoni okuya kusinceda kuyo ukuhlolisisa iimpawu zikaThixo?
ZIZIPHI iimpawu ezithi qatha kuwe xa ucinga ngobuntu bukaYehova? Kwabaninzi kuthi qatha uthando, okusesikweni, ubulumko namandla. Kodwa, siyazi ukuba uYehova unentabalala yeempawu ezintle. Enyanisweni, singade siqabele ngaphaya kwama-40 xa sibala iimpawu zakhe ezimangalisayo, ekuxutyushwe ngazo kwiimpapasho zethu. Ungazicingela ukuba zininzi kangakanani izinto ezibangel’ umdla ngobuntu bukaYehova esinokuzifumana kufundisiso lobuqu okanye olwentsapho! Yintoni esinokuyenza ukuze sizuze kolo fundisiso? Lunokusinceda simxabise ngakumbi uBawo wethu wasezulwini. Xa simxabisa ngakumbi uYehova, siya kukunqwenela ngamandla ukusondela kuye size simxelise.—Yosh. 23:8; INdu. 73:28.
2. (a) Zekelisa indlela esinokwenza ngayo ukuze sizixabise ngakumbi iimpawu zikaYehova. (b) Yintoni esiza kuyiqwalasela?
2 Kuthetha ukuthini kanti, “ukuxabisa” into ethile? Njengokuba siza kulisebenzisa kweli nqaku, eli gama lithetha ukuqonda elona xabiso lento. Ukuxabisa into kukhula ngokukhula. Umzekelo: Siye sikuxabise ngakumbi ukutya okutsha ngokuva ivumba lako, sikungcamle size sigqibele ngokukupheka. Ngokufanayo, siye siluxabise ngakumbi uphawu lukaYehova ngokuzama ukulwazi, sicamngce ngalo size siluxelise. (Efe. 5:1) Injongo yeli nqaku namabini alandelayo kukusinceda sizixabise ngakumbi iimpawu zikaThixo ekusenokwenzeka ukuba asidli ngokucinga ukuba zibaluleke kangako. Kulo ngalunye siza kuqwalasela oku: Luthetha ukuthini? UYehova ulubonisa njani? Sinokumxelisa njani ekuboniseni lona?
UYEHOVA UYANGENEKA
3, 4. (a) Ungamchaza njani umntu ongenekayo? (b) UYehova usiqinisekisa njani ukuba uyangeneka?
3 Makhe siqale ngophawu lokungeneka. Ungamchaza njani umntu ongenekayo? Usenokuthi, ‘Ngumntu onobubele, ofumanekayo xa umfuna nekulula ukuthetha naye.’ Umntu ongenekayo nongangenekiyo udla ngokubonakala ngento ayithethayo nangendlela enza ngayo—izimbo zomzimba, ubuso nezinye.
4 UYehova ubonisa njani ukuba uyangeneka? Nakuba enguMdali usomandla wendalo emangalisayo, uYehova usiqinisekisa ngokuthi ukulungele yaye uzimisele ukuphulaphula imithandazo yethu aze ayiphendule. (Funda iNdumiso 145:18; Isaya 30:18, 19.) UThixo siyakwazi ukuthetha naye nanini na naphi na enoba lixesha elingakanani. Sikhululekile ukuthetha naye, sisazi ukuba akanakuze asiphathe kakubi ngokwenjenjalo. (INdu. 65:2; Yak. 1:5) ILizwi likaThixo lichaza uYehova ngendlela efanayo nabantu ukubonisa ukuba ufuna ukungeneka kubo. Ngokomzekelo, umdumisi uDavide wathi “amehlo kaYehova” abhekiswe kuthi ‘nesandla sakhe sasekunene sihlala sisibambe nkqi.’ (INdu. 34:15; 63:8) Umprofeti uIsaya wafanisa uYehova nomalusi, esithi: ‘Ngengalo yakhe uya kuqokelela ndawonye amatakane; uya kuwathwala ngesifuba sakhe.’ (Isa. 40:11) Khawukucinge nje oko! UYehova ufuna sisondele kuye kanye njengetakane elisesifubeni somalusi onenyameko. Akakho umntu ongamfuniyo uBawo ongeneka njengalo sinaye! Sinokumxelisa njani ke thina uYehova kule nkalo?
UPHAWU OLUXATYISWA GQITHA
5. Kutheni kubalulekile nje ukuba abadala bangeneke?
5 Kumazwekazi ahlukahlukeneyo, amaNgqina anenzondelo akha abuzwa oku, “Luluphi olona phawu uluxabisayo kumdala?” Inkoliso yawo yaphendula yathi, “Ngongenekayo.” Yinyaniso ukuba, mKristu ngamnye umele abe nalo ngokupheleleyo olu phawu, kodwa ibaluleke ngokukhethekileyo into yokuba abadala bangeneke. (Isa. 32:1, 2) Echaza isizathu sokuba ecinga ukuba olu phawu lubalulekile, omnye udade wathi: “Kuxa umdala engeneka kuphela apho enokusinceda nangezinye iimpawu ezintle anazo.” Ngaba uyakubona ukuba sengqiqweni koko? Kodwa yintoni eyenza umntu angeneke?
6. Nguwuphi undoqo ukuze ungeneke?
6 Undoqo ukuze ungeneke kukubonisa umdla kwabanye. Ukuba umdala uyabakhathalela abanye aze akulungele ukuzincama ngenxa yabo, abazalwana noodade, kuquka abaselula baya kukuphawula oko. (Marko 10:13-16) UCarlos oneminyaka eli-12 uthi: “Ndiye ndibabone abadala bencumile eholweni yaye benobubele, ndiyayithanda loo nto.” Kakade ke, akwanelanga ukuba umdala athi yena uyangeneka, umele alubonakalise olo phawu. (1 Yoh. 3:18) Angakwenza njani oko?
7. Yintoni ebangela ukuba ukunxiba ibheji kusoloko kuvusa incoko, ibe sifunda ntoni koko?
7 Khawucinge ngalo mahluko. Kutshanje, omnye umzalwana wayenxibe ibheji yendibano xa wayegoduka ngenqwelo-moya evela kwindibano yelinye ilizwe. Xa umntu osebenza kuloo nqwelo-moya wabona loo bheji inamagama athi “Mabufike UBukumkani Bakho!” wathi kuloo mzalwana, “Mabufike, kudala sibulindile—kuza kufuneka khe sithethe ngabo.” Emva kwexesha bathetha ngabo, ibe loo mntu wavuyiswa kukufumana amaphephancwadi ethu. Baninzi kuthi eye yenzeka kubo le nto. Yintoni le itsala abantu kangaka kwibheji yendibano? Kaloku, amazwi ayo afana nqwa nokuthi ebantwini: “Ndikulungele ukuthetha nani. Ningandibuza ukuba ndiyaphi.” Ibheji ngumqondiso obonakalayo onceda abantu babone ukuba sikulungele ukuthetha nabo ngeenkolelo zethu. Nabo ke, abadala abangamaKristu bafuna ukudlulisela imiqondiso ethi kubazalwana babo: “Ndikulungele ukuthetha nani.” Yiyiphi eminye yaloo miqondiso?
8. Abadala bawubonisa njani umdla wabo onyanisekileyo kwabanye, ibe oko kulichaphazela njani ibandla?
8 Izithethe ziyahluka ngokwamazwe ngamazwe, kodwa ngokuqhelekileyo xa sibancumela, sibaxhawula, sibabulise singangxamanga abazalwana bethu, sibabonisa ukuba sinomdla onyanisekileyo kubo. Ngubani omele abe ngowokuqala ukwenza oku? Sinokucinga ngomzekelo esawushiyelwa nguYesu. UMateyu usichazela ukuba kwintlanganiso yakhe nabafundi bakhe, “UYesu wasondela waza wathetha kubo.” (Mat. 28:18) Nabo ke, abadala namhlanje ngabo abaya kuqala kubazalwana baze bathethe nabo. Kulichaphazela njani oko ibandla? Udade onguvulindlela oneminyaka engama-88 wathi: “Uncumo namazwi akhuthazayo avela kubadala xa ndingena kwiHolo yoBukumkani andenza nditsaleleke kubo.” Omnye udade othembekileyo wongezelela wathi: “Oku kusenokubonakala njengento engenamsebenzi, kodwa xa umdala endamkela ngoncumo kwintlanganiso, ndichukumiseka gqitha.”
UKUNGENEKA NOKUFUMANEKA
9, 10. (a) Nguwuphi umzekelo omhle omiselwa nguYehova? (b) Yintoni enokwenziwa ngabadala ukulungiselela ukuba bafumaneke?
9 Kakade ke, asinakungeneka ukuba asifumaneki. UYehova usimisela umzekelo omhle kule nkalo. ‘Akakho kude kuye ngamnye wethu.’ (IZe. 17:27) Enye indlela abadala abalungiselela ngayo ukuba bafumaneke, kukuqinisekisa ukuba banexesha lokuncokola nabazalwana noodade—abakhulileyo nabaselula emva kweentlanganiso zebandla. Omnye umzalwana onguvulindlela wathi: “Xa umdala endibuza impilo aze eme aphulaphule impendulo, ndiye ndivakalelwe ukuba uyandixabisa.” Udade osele eza kugqiba iminyaka engama-50 ekhonza uYehova wathi: “Abadala abachitha ixesha ukuze bancokole nam emva kwentlanganiso bandenza ndizive ndixabisekile.”
10 Yinyaniso ukuba, ikho neminye imisebenzi emele yenziwe ngabalusi abangamaKristu. Kodwa ke, into emele ibe phambili kwiintlanganiso kukunikela ingqalelo kwizimvu.
UYEHOVA AKAKHETHI BUSO
11, 12. (a) Kuquka ntoni ukungakhethi buso? (b) UYehova unguwo njani kuthi umzekelo wokungakhethi buso?
11 Ukungakhethi buso lolunye uphawu oluthandekayo analo uYehova. Kutheth’ ukuthini ukungakhethi buso? Kuquka ukwenza izinto ngobulungisa, ukungenzeleli elinye icala okanye uthande elinye ngaphezu kwelinye. Zimbini izinto anazo umntu ongakhethi buso ngokwenene: sisimo sengqondo nezenzo. Kutheni zifuneka zombini nje? Kaloku kuxa umntu engakhethi buso kuphela apho aya kukwazi ukuphatha wonke umntu ngendlela efanayo. KwiZibhalo ZamaKristu ZesiGrike, ibinzana elithi “akakhethi buso” ngokoqobo lithetha “umntu ongathathi buso,” into ethetha ukungakhethi obunye ubuso kunobunye. (IZe. 10:34; Kingdom Interlinear) Ngoko ke, umntu ongakhethi buso akanikeli ngqalelo nje kwinkangeleko okanye iimeko zomntu, kodwa kumntu ngokwakhe.
12 UYehova ngowona mzekelo wokungakhethi buso. ILizwi lakhe lithi “akakhethi buso.” (Funda iZenzo 10:34, 35; iDuteronomi 10:17.) Imeko eyavela ngomhla kaMoses ikubonisa kakuhle oko.
13, 14. (a) Yiyiphi imeko eyavelela iintombi ezintlanu zikaTselofehadi? (b) UYehova wabonisa njani ukuba akakhethi buso kuloo meko?
13 Ngaphambi nje kokuba amaSirayeli angene kwiLizwe Lesithembiso, kwavela imeko eyafaka engxakini iintombi ezizalwa kunye ezintlanu ezazingatshatanga. Yayinjani loo meko? Njengezinye iintsapho zamaSirayeli, ezi ntombi zazisazi ukuba intsapho yazo iza kufumana umhlaba owawabelwe uyise. (Num. 26:52-55) Kodwa uyise, uTselofehadi wohlanga lwakwaManase wayefile. Ngokwesiko, yayingoonyana bakaTselofehadi ababemele banikwe ilifa lakhe, kodwa yena wayezele iintombi zodwa. (Num. 26:33) Ekubeni kungekho nyana uza kunikwa elo lifa lentsapho, ngaba umhlaba waloo ntsapho wawuza kunikwa izalamane zize ezo ntombi ziphulukane nelifa lakowazo?
14 Ezi ntombi zaya kuMoses zambuza: “Yini na ke ukuba igama likabawo licinywe phakathi kwentsapho yakhe kuba engenanyana?” Zabe sezicenga zisithi: “Owu khawusinike ilifa phakathi kwabazalwana bakabawo.” Ngaba uMoses waziphendula ngokuthi, ‘Niyazi ukuba umthetho uthini akukho nto ndiza kuyenza’? Nakanye, “wasibeka isimangalo sazo phambi koYehova.” (Num. 27:2-5) Yathini impendulo? UYehova wathi kuMoses: “Iintombi zikaTselofehadi zilungisile ukuthetha. Ufanele nakanjani na uzinike ilifa phakathi kwabazalwana bakayise, ulidlulisele kuzo ilifa likayise.” UYehova akazange aphelele apho. Wasebenzisa eso sigqibo saloo meko yezo ntombi saba ngumthetho, wamyalela oku uMoses: “Xa ithe yafa indoda ingenanyana, nimele nilidlulisele ilifa layo kwintombi yayo. (Num. 27:6-8; Yosh. 17:1-6) Ukususela ngoko, onke amabhinqa akwaSirayeli analoo ngxaki ayeza kukhuselwa.
15. (a) UYehova ubaphatha njani abantu bakhe, ngokukhethekileyo abo bangenabani? (b) Chaza eminye imizekelo eseBhayibhileni engqina ukuba uYehova akakhethi buso?
15 Eso yaba sisigqibo sobubele nesingakhethi buso ngokwenene! Loo mabhinqa ayengenamntu uza kuwanceda, kodwa uYehova wawaphatha ngesidima njengawo onke amanye amaSirayeli. (INdu. 68:5) Lo ngomnye nje wemizekelo emininzi eseBhayibhileni engqina le nyaniso: UYehova akakhethi buso kubo bonke abakhonzi bakhe.—1 Sam. 16:1-13; IZe. 10:30-35, 44-48.
SINOKUMXELISA UYEHOVA
16. Yintoni esinokuyenza ukuze singakhethi buso?
16 Sinokumxelisa njani uYehova singakhethi buso? Khumbula ukuba zimbini izinto ezifunekayo ukuze ungakhethi buso. Kuxa singakhethi buso kuphela apho siya kuphatha abanye kakuhle. Yinyaniso ukuba, sonke sicinga ukuba sinengqondo ephangaleleyo yaye asikhethi buso. Kodwa ke, usenokuvuma ukuba akusoloko kulula ukuzazi kakuhle iimvakalelo zethu. Yintoni ke esinokuyenza ukuze sazi ukuba saziwa ngokungakhethi buso? Xa wayefuna ukwazi ukuba abantu bathini ngaye, yena uYesu wababuza oku abahlobo bakhe abathembekileyo: “Abantu bathi ungubani uNyana womntu?” (Mat. 16:13, 14) Kutheni ungaxelisi yena nje nawe? Unokubuza omnye kubahlobo obathembayo enoba udume njani na kwinkalo yokungakhethi buso. Ukuba uthi ubonakala unekhethe elithile lobuhlanga, labantu ohlala nabo okanye ngokwemeko yabo yemali, yintoni onokuyenza? Thandaza ngokunyanisekileyo kuYehova umcele akuncede utshintshe ukuze ukwazi ukubonakala ukuba akukhethi buso.—Mat. 7:7; Kol. 3:10, 11.
17. Ziziphi iindlela zokungakhethi buso esinokubaphatha ngazo abanye?
17 Kwibandla lamaKristu, sivakalisa umnqweno wethu wokuxelisa uYehova ongakhethi buso ngokuphatha bonke abazalwana noodadewethu ngesidima nobubele. Ngokomzekelo, xa sisenzela abantu ububele simema zonke iintlobo zabazalwana bethu, kuquka abo banemvelaphi eyahlukileyo kweyethu, abo bangamahlwempu, iinkedama okanye bafelwe ngamaqabane. (Funda eyabaseGalati 2:10; Yakobi 1:27.) Enye into, xa sishumayela ngoBukumkani asikhethi buso sishumayela kubantu beentlanga zonke, kuquka abo bavela kwamanye amazwe. Sivuyiswa gqitha yinto yokuba sikwazi ukufumana uncwadi lweBhayibhile ngeelwimi ezimalunga nama-600. Abukho ubungqina obudlula obo bokuba asikhethi buso!
18. Yiyiphi indlela oya kubonisa ngayo ukuba uyakuxabisa ukungeneka nokungakhethi buso kukaYehova?
18 Ngokwenene, njengoko sicamngca ngokungeneka nokungakhethi buso kukaYehova, siya simxabisa ngakumbi. Kona ke, ukumxabisa ngakumbi kumele kusenze simxelise ngokupheleleyo, sibaphathe njengaye abazalwana bethu nabantu esishumayela kubo.

Chapter 11
1 Bahlala abathetheli babantu eYerusalem; abanye abantu bawisa amaqashiso, ukuba kungeniswe abe mnye kwabalishumi, ahlale eYerusalem kuwo umzi ongcwele, nezinye izahlulo ezisithoba zihlale kweminye imizi.
2 Abantu bawasikelela amadoda onke aqhutywa yintliziyo ukuba ahlale eYerusalem.
3 Zizo ezi iintloko zelizwe lakwaYuda, ezahlala eYerusalem; ke emizini yakwaYuda, yaba ngulowo wahlala elifeni lakhe, emizini yabo, ingamaSirayeli, nababingeleli, nabaLevi, nabakhonzi betempile, noonyana babakhonzi bakaSolomon.

Chapter 6
1 Nina bantwana, baveni abazali benu ngokwabaseNkosini; kuba oko kububulungisa.
2 Beka uyihlo nonyoko; wona lowo ngumthetho wokuqala onedinga;
3 ukuze kulunge kuwe, ube nexesha elide emhlabeni.
4 Nani boyise, musani ukubacaphukisa abantwana benu; bondleleni ekuqeqesheni nasekululekeni kweNkosi.
5 Nina bakhonzi, baveni abaziinkosi zenu ngokwenyama, ninokuzoyikela nokugubha, ningenakumbi ezintliziyweni zenu, ninge niva uKristu ngokwakhe.
6 Ukukhonza kwenu makungabi ngokweliso, ngathi nithomalalisa abantu; makube ngokwabakhonzi bakaKristu, nikwenza ukuthanda kukaThixo ngokwasemphefumlweni,
7 nikhonza ngentumekelelo, kukuyo iNkosi, kungekubo abantu;
8 nisazi nje ukuba into esukuba ilungile, athe ulowo wayenza, uya kwamkeliswa kwayona yiNkosi, nokuba uNonzi nokuba ungokhululekileyo.
9 Nani baziinkosi zabo, yenzani kwaezo zinto kubo, nikuyeke ukusongela; nisazi nje ukuba kwaeyabo neyenu iNkosi isemazulwini, nokuba akukho kukhetha buso kuyo.
10 Elokugqiba, bazalwana bam, ndithi, Yomelelani eNkosini, nasekuqineni kokomelela kwayo.
11 Xhobani sonke isikrweqe sikaThixo, ukuze nibe nako ukumisa nibuchase ubuqhinga boMtyholi.
12 Ngokuba umzamo wethu asingowokuzamana negazi nenyama; ngowokuzamana nazo izilawuli, nawo amagunya, nazo iziphatha-hlabathi zobumnyama balo eli phakade, nayo imikhosi yomoya abakhohlakeleyo kwezasezulwini iindawo.
13 Ngenxa yoko, qubulani sonke isikrweqe sikaThixo; ukuze nibe nako ukuchasa ngomhla ombi, nithi nikufezile konke, nime nimi.
14 Misani ke ngoko, nibhinqe inyaniso esinqeni senu, ninxibe isigcina-sifuba sobulungisa,
15 nibophe ezinyaweni zenu ulungiselelo lweendaba ezilungileyo zoxolo.
16 Ngaphezu kwezo zinto zonke, qubulani ikhaka lokholo, lona nothi ngalo nibe nako ukuzicima zonke iintolo ezinomlilo zakhe ongendawo.
17 Yamkelani isigcina-ntloko sosindiso, nalo ikrele loMoya, elililizwi likaThixo;
18 ngako konke ukuthandaza nokukhunga, nithandaza amaxesha onke nikuye uMoya; niyiphaphamele loo nto ngako konke ukuzingisa nokukhunga, ngenxa yabo bonke abangcwele;
19 nangenxa yam, ukuba ndiphiwe ilizwi ekuwuvuleni umlomo wam, ndize ndazise ngokungafihlisiyo imfihlelo yeendaba ezi zilungileyo,
20 ekungenxa yazo endisisigidimi esisezintanjeni; ukuze ndingafihlisi ukuthetha kuzo, njengoko ndimelwe kukuthetha ngako.
21 Ke kaloku, ukuze nani nikwazi okukokwam, ukuba ndinjani na, wonazisa konke uTikiko, umzalwana oyintanda, umlungiseleli othembekileyo ngokwaseNkosini;
22 endimthume le nto kuni, ukuze nizazi iindaba zethu, nokuze azithuthuzele iintliziyo zenu.
23 Makube luxolo kubo abazalwana, nothando, ndawonye nokholo oluvela kuThixo uYise, neNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu.
24 Ubabalo malube nabo bonke abayithandayo iNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu ngokungenakonakala. Amen.

1:1 UYakobi, umkhonzi kaThixo neNkosi uYesu Kristu, ubhalela izizwe ezilishumi elinazibini eziziintsali, ebulisa.
1:2 Kubaleleni ekuthini kuluvuyo olukhulu, bazalwana bam, xa nithe nagaxeleka ezilingweni ngezilingo,
1:3 nisazi nje ukuba ucikido lokholo lwenu lusebenza umonde.
1:4 Umonde ke mawube nomsebenzi ozalisekileyo, ukuze nibe ngabazalisekileyo, abagqibeleleyo, ningaswele nto.
1:5 Ukuba ke ubani kuni uswele ubulumko, makacele kuThixo, onika bonke engenakumbi, engangcikivi; wobunikwa.
1:6 Ke makacele ekholwa, engathandabuzi; kuba lowo uthandabuzayo ufana nokulatyuza kolwandle, luqhutywa ngumoya, luntsileka.
1:7 Kuba loo mntu makangabi uya kwamkela nto kuyo iNkosi.
1:8 Indoda emphefumlo umbaxa iyahlozinga kuzo zonke iindlela zayo.
1:9 Ke umzalwana othobekileyo makaqhayise ngako ukuphakama kwakhe;
1:10 osisityebi ke makaqhayise ngako ukuthobeka kwakhe; ngokuba uya kudlula njengentyantyambo yengca.
1:11 Kuba lithi lakuphuma ilanga, kunye nolophu, liyitshise ingca, ize ke intyantyambo yayo ivuthuluke, buthi nobuhle bembonakalo yayo butshabalale; siya kwenjenjalo nesityebi ukungcumbeka eluhambeni lwaso.
1:12 Inoyolo indoda ekunyamezelayo ukulingwa; ngokuba yothi, yakuba icikidekile, isamkele isithsaba sobomi, ebabeke ngedinga iNkosi abo bayithandayo.
1:13 Makungabikho namnye utshoyo akuhendwa ukuthi, Ndihendwa kwaThixo; kuba uThixo akanakuhendeka kokubi, akahendi namnye ke yena.
1:14 Elowo ke uhendwa akutsalwa, abanjiswe, yeyakhe inkanuko.
1:15 Ithi inkanuko, yakuba ithabathile, izale isono; sithi ke isono, sakuba sikhulelwe, sizale ukufa.
1:16 Musani ukulahlekiswa, bazalwana bam baziintanda.
1:17 Sonke isipho esilungileyo, naso sonke isipho esigqibeleleyo, sesaphezulu; sihla sivela kuye uYise wezikhanyiso, ongenabuyambo nasithunzi sakujika.
1:18 Uthandile, wasizala ngelizwi lenyaniso, ukuze sibe yintlahlela yazo izidalwa zakhe.
1:19 Ngoko ke, bazalwana bam baziintanda, makathi umntu wonke enze msinya ukuva, enze kade ukuthetha, enze kade ukuqumba;
1:20 kuba ingqumbo yendoda ayisebenzi bulungisa bukaThixo.
1:21 Kungoko endithi, yithini, nibubekile nxamnye bonke ubunyhukunyhuku nokuphuphuma ulunya, namkele ninobulali ilizwi elimiselweyo kuni, elinako ukuyisindisa imiphefumlo yenu.
1:22 Yibani ke ngabenzi belizwi, ningabi ngabaphulaphuli kodwa, nizidephisela.
1:23 Ngokuba umntu, ukuba ungumphulaphuli nje welizwi, engemenzi walo, lowo ufana nendoda eqiqa ubuso bayo bobuntu esipilini;
1:24 kuba iyaziqiqa, imke, ilibale kwaoko ukuba ibinjani na.
1:25 Ke yena oqondela emthethweni ogqibeleleyo wayo inkululeko, ahlale ehleli kuwo, lowo, ethe nje akaba ngumphulaphuli olibalayo, esuke waba ngumenzi womsebenzi: yena uya kuba noyolo ekwenzeni kwakhe.
1:26 Ukuba ubani kuni uba ungonqulayo, abe engalubambi ngomkhala ulwimi lwakhe, elukuhla intliziyo yakhe, unqulo lwalowo alunto yanto.
1:27 Unqulo lona oluhlambulukileyo, olu ngadyobhekileyo phambi koThixo uBawo, lulo olu: kukuvelela iinkedama nabahlolokazi embandezelweni, yabo: kukuzigcina engenabala kulo ihlabathi.
2:1 Bazalwana bam, musani ukukuphatha ngokukhetha buso bamntu, ukukholwa yiNkosi yethu yozuko, uYesu Kristu.
2:2 Kuba, xa kuthe kwangena endlwini yenu yesikhungu indoda enemisesane yegolide, inengubo eqaqambileyo; kwaza ke kwangena ihlwempu, lineengubo ezimdaka;
2:3 naza nakhangela kulowo uvethe ingubo eqaqambileyo, nathi kuye, Hlala apha kakuhle wena; nathi kulo ihlwempu, Yima phaya wena; mhlawumbi, Hlala phantsi apha ngasesihlalweni seenyawo zam:
2:4 anicalulanga na ke phakathi kwenu, naba ngabagwebi abanezicamango ezingendawo?
2:5 Yivani, bazalwana bam baziintanda: uThixo akawanyulanga na amahlwempu eli hlabathi, ukuba abe zizityebi zokholo, neendlalifa zobukumkani, awababeka ngedinga abo bamthandayo?
2:6 Ke nina nilihlazisile ihlwempu. Izityebi azinishicileli na? Zona azinirholeli ematyaleni na?
2:7 Zona azilinyelisi na igama elihle elo, nabizwa ngalo?
2:8 Ukuba okunene niyawuzalisa umthetho wakomkhulu, ngokwesibhalo esithi, Uze umthande ummelwane wakho ngoko uzithanda ngako, nityaphile;
2:9 kodwa ukuba nikhetha ubuso bomntu, nisebenza isono, niyohlwaywa ngumthetho ngokwabagqithi.
2:10 Kuba yena oya kuwugcina umthetho uphela, akhubeke mthethweni mnye, unetyala layo yonke.
2:11 Kuba lowo wathi, Musa ukukrexeza, ubuye wathi, Musa ukubulala. Ke, ukuba akukrexezi, kodwa ubulala, usewuthe waba ngumgqithi-mthetho.
2:12 Yithini ukuthetha, yithini ukwenza, nenze njengabaza kugwetywa ngomthetho wenkululeko.
2:13 Kuba umgwebo awuyi kuba natarhu kulowo ungenzanga nceba; kananjalo inceba iyawuqhayisela umgwebo.
2:14 Kunceda ntoni na, bazalwana bam, ukuba umntu uthi unokholo, abe imisebenzi ke engenayo? Lunako yini na ukumsindisa ukholo lwakhe?
2:15 Ukuba ke umzalwana, nokuba ngudade, bathi bahambe ze, beswele ukudla imihla ngemihla,
2:16 athi ke omnye wenu kubo, Hambani ninoxolo, yothani, hluthani; nibe ke ningabaniki izinto ezo ziwufaneleyo umzimba: kunceda ntoni na?
2:17 Ngokunjalo nalo ukholo, ukuba luthi lungabi namisebenzi, lufile ngokukokwalo.
2:18 Wosuka omnye, athi, Wena unokholo, ke mna ndinemisebenzi; ndibonise ukholo lwakho olungenamisebenzi yakho; nam ndokubonisa ngokwasemisebenzini yam ukholo lwam.
2:19 Wena uyakholwa ukuba uThixo mnye; uyatyapha; nazo iidemon ziyakholwa, zibe namanwele.
2:20 Uyathanda na ke ukwazi, mntundini ungento, ukuba ukholo olu, ingekho imisebenzi, lufile?
2:21 UAbraham, ubawo wethu, akagwetyelwanga na ngokwasemisebenzini, akumnikela uIsake, unyana wakhe, phezu kwesibingelelo?
2:22 Uyabona ukuba ukholo lwalusebenzisana nemisebenzi yakhe, lwenziwa wagqibelela ukholo ngokwasemisebenzini?
2:23 Saza sazaliseka isibhalo esithi, Wakholwa ke uAbraham nguye uThixo; kwaza oko kwabalelwa ebulungiseni kuye, wabizwa ngokuba sisihlobo sikaThixo.
2:24 Niyabona ke ngoko, ukuba umntu uyagwetyelwa ngokwasemisebenzini; kungabi ngokwaselukholweni lodwa.
2:25 Ngokunjalo ke, noRahabhi, ihenyukazi, akagwetyelwanga na ngokwasemisebenzini, akubamkela ngobubele abathunywa, abakhuphele phandle ngayimbi indlela?
2:26 Kuba, kwanjengokuba umzimba, ungekho umoya, ufile, ngokunjalo ukholo, ingekho imisebenzi, lufile nalo.
3:1 Musani ukuba ngabafundisi abaninzi, bazalwana bam, nisazi nje ukuba siya kwamkela olona lukhulu ugwebo.
3:2 Kuba siyakhubeka kaninzi sonke. Ukuba umntu akakhubeki zwini, lowo uyindoda egqibeleleyo, enako ukuwubamba ngomkhala nawo umzimba uphela.
3:3 Yabona, sifaka imikhala emilonyeni yamahashe, ukuba asithambele, siwajike umzimba wawo uphela.
3:4 Yabona, nayo imikhombe, imikhulu kangaka nje, iqhutywa nje yimimoya enamandla, ijikwa ngomthi wokujika omncinanana, iye apho sukuba umlawuli angxamele ukuba ingaya ngakhona.
3:5 Ngokunjalo nalo ulwimi, lulilungu elincinanana nje, luyagwagwisa kakhulu. Yabona ke, umlilo omncinane utshisa ihlathi elikhulu.
3:6 Nolwimi olu ngumlilo, lihlabathi elizele kukungalungisi; lunjalo ulwimi ukuhlala phakathi kwamalungu ethu. Lona luyawudyobha umzimba uphela, luvuthisa intenda yobomi; lona ke luvuthiswa sisihogo somlilo.
3:7 Kuba zonke iimvelo zezinto ezizitho zine, kwanezeentaka, nezezinambuzane, kwanezezinto eziselwandle, ziyadanjiswa, kanjalo sezikhe zadanjiswa yimvelo eyiyeyabantu;
3:8 ke lona ulwimi alunaye noko amnye ebantwini, unokuludambisa; lubububi obungenakubanjwa, luzele bubuhlungu obubulalayo.
3:9 Ngalo siyambonga uThixo uYise, nangalo siyabaqalekisa abantu abenziwe ngokomfanekiselo kaThixo.
3:10 Kwakulo mlomo mnye kuphuma intsikelelo nengqalekiso. Akufanelekile, bazalwana bam, ukuba ezi zinto zibe nje.
3:11 Umthombo umpompoza amnandi nakrakra kwangelo liso linye, yini na?
3:12 Unako yini na, bazalwana bam, umkhiwane ukuvelisa iinkozo zomnquma, uthi umdiliya uvelise amakhiwane? Ngokunjalo akukho namnye umthombo ongavelisa amanzi amtyuba namnandi.
3:13 Ngubani na olumkileyo, owaziyo kakuhle phakathi kwenu? Makayibonise imisebenzi yakhe ngehambo entle, enobulali bobulumko.
3:14 Ke, ukuba ninomona okrakra neyelenqe entliziyweni yenu, musani ukuyiqhayisela nokuyixoka inyaniso.
3:15 Obo bulumko asibubo obuhla phezulu; bobasemhlabeni, bobemvelo, bobeedemon.
3:16 Kuba apho kukhoyo umona neyelenqe, kubakho isiphithiphithi nemicimbi emibi yonke.
3:17 Ke bona ubulumko baphezulu ukuqala bunyulu, buze bube boboxolo; buyancendezela, buthozame kakuhle, buzele yinceba neziqhamo ezilungileyo; abunankani, abunaluhanahaniso.
3:18 Isiqhamo ke sobulungisa sihlwayelwa ngoxolo ngabo benza uxolo.
4:1 Zivela phi na iimfazwe nokulwa phakathi kwenu? Aziveli na apha eziyolweni zenu, eziwaphumela umkhosi amalungu enu?
4:2 Niyakhanuka, ningabi nakuzuza nto noko; niyabulala, nizonde, ningabi nakufumana nto noko; niyalwa, nenze imfazwe, ningabi nakuzuza nto ke, ngenxa yokuba ningaceli.
4:3 Niyacela, ningamkeli noko, ngenxa enokuba nicela kakubi, ukuze oko nikuchithele iziyolo zenu.
4:4 Bakrexezindini, bakrexezikazindini, anazi na ukuba ubuhlobo balo ihlabathi bubutshaba kuye uThixo? Othe ngoko wanga angaba sisihlobo salo ihlabathi, uzenza utshaba lukaThixo.
4:5 Okanye niba isibhalo esi sifumana sisitsho na, ukuthi, Umoya owahlala ngaphakathi kwethu ulangazelela ukukhweleta?
4:6 Ke ubabala kakhulu ngakumbi. Kungoko sithi, UThixo uyabachasa abanekratshi, abababale abazithobileyo.
4:7 Mthobeleni ngoko uThixo. Mchaseni ke uMtyholi, wonibaleka.
4:8 Sondelani kuye uThixo, wosondela kuni. Hlambululani izandla, boni, nenze nyulu iintliziyo, nina bamphefumlo umbaxa.
4:9 Yibani ziindwayi, nikhedame, nilile; ukuhleka kwenu makujike kube kukukhedama, nalo uvuyo lwenu lube kukuthi dakumba.
4:10 Zithobeni emehlweni eNkosi, yoniphakamisa.
4:11 Musani ukuthetha okubi omnye ngomnye, bazalwana. Lowo uthetha okubi ngomzalwana, amgwebe umzalwana wakhe, uthetha okubi ngomthetho, agwebe umthetho; ke, ukuba uyawugweba umthetho, akumenzi wamthetho, ungumgwebi.
4:12 Mnye uMmisi-mthetho, lowo unako ukusindisa nokutshabalalisa; ungubani na wena, umgwebayo omnye?
4:13 Wenani kaloku, nina nitshoyo ukuthi, Namhla, nokuba kungomso, siya kuya kulaa mzi, senze khona umnyaka ube mnye, sirhwebe, sizuze;
4:14 kanti nina aba anikwazi kakuhle okwangomso. Kuba buyintoni na ubomi benu? Bungumphunga obonakala ixesha elincinane, uze ke uthi shwaka.
4:15 Endaweni yokuba nithi, Ukuba iNkosi ithe yathanda, saphila, siya kwenza le nto, nalaa nto.
4:16 Ngoku ke niqhayisa ngokuqhankqalaza kwenu; konke ukuqhayisa okunjalo akundawo.
4:17 Ngoko kowaziyo ukwenza okuhle, angakwenzi, kulowo kusisono.
5:1 Wenani kaloku, zityebi, lilani nenze isijwili ngeenkxwaleko zenu ezizayo.
5:2 Ubutyebi benu bubolile, neengubo zenu zidliwe ngamanundu.
5:3 Igolide nesilivere yenu idliwe ngumhlwa; umhlwa wazo uya kuba lingqina ngakuni, uyidle inyama yenu njengomlilo. Niziqwebele ubutyebi ngeemini zokugqibela.
5:4 Yabonani, umvuzo wabasebenzi, abavune amasimi enu, lowo ubandeziweyo nini, uyakhala; kwaye ukubhomboloza kwabavuni abo kungenile ezindlebeni zeNkosi yemikhosi.
5:5 Nadla ubuncwane emhlabeni apha, naxhamla iziyolo, nazondla iintliziyo zenu njengamhla kuxheliweyo.
5:6 Namgweba, nambulala olilungisa; yena akanichasi.
5:7 Nyamezelani ngoko, bazalwana, ide ifike iNkosi. Niyabona, umlimi uyasilinda isiqhamo sawo umhlaba esinexabiso elikhulu, anyamezele ngaso, side samkele eyaphambili neyasemva imvula.
5:8 Nyamezelani nani, zizimaseni iintliziyo zenu, ngokuba ukufika kweNkosi kusondele.
5:9 Musani ukukrokrelana omnye nomnye, bazalwana, ukuze ningagwetywa; yabonani, uMgwebi umi phambi komnyango.
5:10 Bathabatheni, bazalwana bam, abaprofeti ababethetha egameni leNkosi, babe ngumzekelo wokuva ubunzima, nowokunyamezela.
5:11 Yabonani, sithi, banoyolo abo banyamezelayo. Unyamezelo lukaYobhi naluva, nesigqibo seNkosi nasibona, ngokuba iNkosi inemfesane enkulu, inenceba.
5:12 Ke kaloku, ngaphezu kweento zonke, bazalwana bam, musani ukufunga, nokuba lizulu, nokuba ngumhlaba, nokuba sesinye isifungo esiyini; makathi ke uewe wenu abe nguewe, nohayi abe nguhayi, ukuze ningeyeli ekugwetyweni.
5:13 Kukho mntu na phakathi kwenu uva ububi? Makathandaze. Kukho mntu na unomxhelo owonwabileyo? Makenze indumiso.
5:14 Kukho mntu na ufayo phakathi kwenu? Makabizele kuye amadoda amakhulu alo ibandla, athandaze wona phezu kwakhe, akuba emthambisile ngeoli, egameni leNkosi;
5:15 wothi umthandazo wokholo umsindise lowo uleleyo, iNkosi imvuse; nokuba ubethe wenza izono, wozixolelwa.
5:16 Xelelanani iziphoso, nithandazelane, ukuze niphiliswe. Sinamandla kakhulu isikhungo selungisa, siyeyisa.
5:17 UEliya wayengumntu oluvo lunjengolwethu, wathandaza umthandazo ukuba ingani; ayana emhlabeni iminyaka emithathu eneenyanga ezintandathu.
5:18 Wabuya wathandaza, laza izulu lanika imvula, umhlaba wavelisa isiqhamo sawo.
5:19 Bazalwana, ukuba uthe omnye phakathi kwenu walahleka enyanisweni, wathi ubani wamguqula,
5:20 makazi ukuba lowo wamguqulayo umoni ekulahlekeni kwakhe, woba usindise umphefumlo ekufeni, wagubungela inkitha yezono.

Chapter 3
1 Ke kaloku uMoses wayesalusa impahla emfutshane kaYitro, uyise womkakhe, umbingeleli wakwaMidiyan, wayiqhubela ele kwentlango, wafika entabeni kaThixo eHorebhe.
2 Kwabonakala isithunywa sikaYehova kuye, siselangatyeni lomlilo, etyholweni phakathi, wakhangela, wabona ityholo lisitsha ngumlilo, noko lingade litshe liphele.
3 Wathi uMoses, Makhe ndityeke, ndiye kubona lo mbono mkhulu; ukuba kutheni na ukuba ityholo lingatshi liphele.
4 Wabona uYehova, ukuba utyekile esiza kubona; uThixo wabiza esetyholweni phakathi, wathi kuye, Moses, Moses. Wathi yena, Ndilapha.
5 Wathi, Musa ukusondela apha. Khulula iimbadada zakho ezo ezinyaweni zakho, kuba loo ndawo umi kuyo ingumhlaba ongcwele.
6 Wathi, NdinguThixo kayihlo, uThixo ka-Abraham, uThixo kaIsake, uThixo kaYakobi. Wabusithelisa uMoses ubuso bakhe, kuba ebesoyika ukukhangela kuThixo.
7 Wathi uYehova, Ndizibonile okunene iintsizi zabantu bam abaseYiputa, nokukhala kwabo ndikuvile, ngenxa yabo babaqhuba kalukhuni; kuba ndiyawazi umvandedwa wabo.
8 Ndihlile ke; ndize kubahlangula esandleni samaYiputa, ndibanyuse baphume kwelo lizwe, baye ezweni elilungileyo, elibanzi, ezweni elibaleka amasi nobusi, endaweni yamaKanan, namaHiti, nama-Amori, namaPerizi, namaHivi, namaYebhusi.
9 Ngoku ke naku ukukhala koonyana bakaSirayeli, kufikile kum; kananjalo ndikubonile ukuxina abaxine ngako amaYiputa.
10 Hamba ngoku, ndikuthume kuFaro, ubakhuphe eYiputa abantu bam, oonyana bakaSirayeli.
11 Wathi uMoses kuThixo, Ndingubani na ukuba ndingade ndiye kuFaro, ukuba ndibakhuphe eYiputa oonyana bakaSirayeli?
12 Wathi, Ndiya kuba nawe. Nangu umqondiso wokuba ndikuthumile mna: ekubakhupheni kwakho abantu eYiputa, niya kumkhonza uThixo kule ntaba.
13 Wathi uMoses kuThixo, Uyabona, ukuba ndiya koonyana bakaSirayeli, ndithi kubo, UThixo wooyihlo undithumile kuni, baze bathi kum, Ngubani na igama lakhe? ndothini na kubo?
14 Wathi uThixo kuMoses, Ndinguye eNdinguye. Wathi, Wotsho koonyana bakaSirayeli ukuthi, uNdinguye undithumile kuni.
15 Waphinda wathi uThixo kuMoses, Wothi koonyana bakaSirayeli, UYehova, uThixo wooyihlo, uThixo ka-Abraham, uThixo kaIsake, uThixo kaYakobi, undithumile kuni: ligama lam elo ngonaphakade, sisikhumbuzo sam eso kwizizukulwana ngezizukulwana.
16 Yiya uhlanganise amadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli, uthi kuwo, UYehova, uThixo wooyihlo, uThixo ka-Abraham, kaIsake kaYakobi, ubonakele kum, wathi, Ndinivelele nina, naloo nto niyenziweyo eYiputa.
17 Ndathi, Ndiya kuninyusa niphume ezintsizini zaseYiputa, niye ezweni lamaKanan, namaHiti, nama-Amori, namaPerizi, namaHivi, namaYebhusi, ezweni elibaleka amasi nobusi.
18 Boliphulaphula ilizwi lakho; uze uye ke wena namadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli kukumkani waseYiputa, nithi kuye, UYehova uThixo wamaHebhere uhlangene nathi; ngoku makhe sihambe entlango uhambo lweentsuku ezintathu, sibingelele kuYehova uThixo wethu.
19 Ke mna ndiyazi, ukuba ukumkani waseYiputa akayi kunivumela ukuba nihambe, nokuba sekungesandla esithe nkqi.
20 Ndiya kusolula isandla sam, ndiyibethe iYiputa ngemisebenzi yam yonke ebalulekileyo, endiya kuyenza phakathi kwayo, andule ke ukunindulula.
21 Aba bantu ndiya kubababala phambi kwamaYiputa; kuthi, xa nithe nemka, ningemki nize.
22 Intokazi iya kucela kwengummelwane wayo, nakwengumphambukeli endlwini yayo, impahla yesilivere, nempahla yegolide, neengubo, nizinxibe oonyana benu neentombi zenu, niwaphange amaYiputa.

Kukho abantu abaninzi abafuna amathuba okufumana imali kwi-intanethi. Enye inkonzo efunekayo kakhulu enokuyenza kuyo i-backlinks yokuthengisa. Abaninzi abathengisi be-intanethi bakulungele ukuhlawula imali enkulu ukuthumela izixhumanisi. Awudingi ukuba ube newebhusayithi yakho, okanye uthengise ezinye iimveliso okanye iinkonzo. Ngaphezu koko, akudingeki wenze nayiphi na imisebenzi yangempela. Yonke into oyifunayo iikopi ezithatha umxholo ofunekayo kunye ne-URL echanekileyo kuma-akhawunti ahlukeneyo aseburhulumenteni, iiblogi, iiforam kunye nemithombo yoluntu. Nangona kunjalo, kuyavakala ukuba kuhle ukunyaniseka. I-backlinks ezithengisayo akuyiyo into ekufuneka uyenze kuyo. Ewe, unako ukuphakamisa imali ekuthengiseni i-backlinks. Nangona kunjalo, kukho izizathu ezingaphezu kweyodwa ukuba kutheni akufanelekanga ixesha kunye nemizamo.
Kule nqaku, siza kuxubusha ngeendlela ezikhoyo zokufumana imali ekuthengiseni i-backlinks nendlela yokuphepha izigwebo ekubandakanyekeni kule mi sebenzi.
Ngubani onokukuhlawula ngokuthumela ikhonkco?
Masiqwalasele ngokuthe ngqo ukuba ngubani onokufuna ikhonkco yokuthumela iinkonzo, kwaye kutheni ukuba ukulungele ukuhlawula wena.
Inani elikhulu lemashishini e-intanethi zihlala ziphakamileyo kwiziphumo zophando kwaye zifumane ukuhamba rhoqo kwezinto eziphilayo (ukukhangela) kwimizila yabo yewebhu. Ubume obulungileyo kuthetha abathengi abathengi, kwaye emva koko, abathengi abaninzi bathetha igunya eliphezulu lokuthengisa, ukuguqulwa, kunye neengeniso. Indlela epheleleyo yokufumana inqanaba eliphezulu kwi-SERP kukufumana iinqununu kwiwebhusayithi yakho. Ezi zintlanzi zikhonza njengevoti zabanye abantu kwaye zibonisa iinjongo zokukhangela ukuba indawo yakho inokwethenjelwa, inokuthenjwa kunye negunya. Ngaloo mqondiso yeenjini zokukhangela zakha uluvo lwazo malunga nekhwalithi yakho yesayithi kwaye ziqale ukubeka indawo yakho phezulu kwi-SERP. Kwiminyaka emininzi edlulileyo, abathengisi be-intanethi baqikelele ukuba banokuthenga kuphela "iivoti" zabo kwiimimandla ukuphucula izikhundla zabo nokuphakamisa ulwazi.
Kungekudala, kwakuyindlela efanelekileyo yokufumana i juyisi, kodwa ngoku ayisebenzi. I-Google ishintshile i-algorithm yesimo sayo kwaye yakha isihlunu sePenguin esifumana kwaye sihlawulise iiwebhusayithi ezibandakanya kwimisebenzi enjenge-backlink yokuthenga. Kukho abanikazi bewebhusayithi abanomdla kwi-link yokuthumela, kodwa kwiintsuku zethu le shishini libhekwa njengelifile. Iinjongo zophando zizalisa izigidi ekukhuseleni abantu ukuba baphumelele ekusebenziseni izakhiwo zokuqhagamshelana neziqhelo ezingaqhelekanga. I-Google, umzekelo, ibonisa ukuba iinqununu ezihlawulwayo aziyi kugunyazisa igunya lewebhusayithi kwaye ayikwazi ukuchaphazela i-domain PageRank. Ukongezelela, iifayile ze-injini zokusesha zanamhlanje zihlakaniphe kwaye ziyakwazi ukubona ukuba yeyiphi iwebhsayithi ejongene nokuthengwa kwekhonkco. Kuthetha ukuba i-Google iza kukubonisa kwaye ikuhlawulise iinqununu ezihlawulwe ngokunciphisa isikhundla sakho sokuma. Ngokuthenga i-juice ye-link, ungonakalisa yonke imizamo yakho yokuphucula injini.
Namhlanje, iinkampani ezinendlela efanelekileyo yokukhuthazwa kwe-intanethi azizithengi i-backlinks njengoko ziyazi indlela engengozi ngayo kwi-intanethi yabo. Nangona kunjalo, kubalulekile ukuthetha ukuba amanye amashishini angabonakaliyo ukuzama ukuphula imithetho kunye nokukhohlisa iGoogle ngokuthenga i-juice ye-link ye-organic kwiwebhusayithi yazo.

ULUTSHA LUYABUZA
Ngaba Kubalulekile Ukuba Nembeko?
‘Abantu abandivuleli mna umnyango; kutheni mna ndifanele ndibavulele?’
‘Ngaba azikho izinto ezibaluleke ngakumbi endinokuzikhathaza ngazo kunokuthi “ndiyacela,” “enkosi” nokuthi “uxolo”?’
‘Akuyomfuneko ukuba ndibe nembeko kubantwana basekhaya. Siyintsapho nje.’
Ngaba amanye kula mabinzana angasentla sikhe siwathethe? Ukuba kunjalo, sakuphoswa ziingenelo zokuba nembeko.
Ofanele ukwazi ngokuba nembeko
Ukuba nembeko kunokuphucula ezi nkalo zintathu zilandelayo ebomini bakho:
Indlela owaziwa ngayo. Indlela obaphatha ngayo abanye abantu ithetha okuthile ngawe. Ukuba unembeko, abantu baza kukujonga njengomntu oqolileyo nabanokuthembela kuye ibe nabo baza kukuphatha ngendlela efanayo. Noko ke, ukuba ukrwada abantu baza kugqiba ngelokuba uyazithanda ibe ngenxa yoko usenokungawufumani umsebenzi, uphoswe nazezinye izinto. Njengoko iBhayibhile isitsho, “umntu okhohlakeleyo uyizisela ishwangusha inyama yakhe.”—IMizekeliso 11:17.
Abahlobo bakho. IBhayibhile ithi: “Yambathani uthando, kuba lungumxokelelwane ogqibeleleyo womanyano.” (Kolose 3:14) Oku kubaluleke nangakumbi kubahlobo. Abantu bayatsaleleka kubantu abanembeko nababaphatha kakuhle. Phofu ke, ngubani obengathanda ukuba phakathi kwabantu abakrwada?
Indlela abantu abakuphatha ngayo. Ibhinqa eliselula elinguJennifer lithi: “Ukuba usoloko unobubele, ekuhambeni kwexesha nabantu abakrwada bayanyibilika.” Kakade ke, ukuba ukrwada nabantu baza kuba krwada. IBhayibhile ithi: “Nomlinganiselo enilinganisela ngawo, baya kunilinganisela kwangawo nani.”—Mateyu 7:2.
Inyaniso yile: Suku ngalunye sidibana nabantu. Le ndlela ubaphatha ngayo abantu yile ndlela baza kukuphatha ngayo nabo. Singatsho nje sithi, kubalulekile ukuba nembeko!
Indlela onokuphucula ngayo
Zihlole ubone enoba unayo na imbeko. Zibuze le mibuzo: ‘Ngaba ndiyabahlonela abantu abadala? Nditsho kangaphi ukuthi “ndiyacela,” “enkosi” okanye “uxolo”? Ngaba ndibaphazamisa besathetha abanye—mhlawumbi ngokufunda okanye ngokuphendula ii-sms? Ngaba abazali nabantwana basekhaya ndiyabahlonela, okanye ndibaphatha nanjani na kuba “beyintsapho”?’
IBhayibhile ithi: “Ekuboniseni imbeko omnye komnye khokelani.”—Roma 12:10.
Zibekele usukelo. Bhala phantsi iinkalo ezintathu onokuphucula kuzo. Ngokomzekelo, uAllison ona-15 uthi kufuneka afunde “ukuphulaphula kunokuba asoloko ethetha.” UDavid ona-19 uthi kufuneka ayeke ukuthumela imiyalezo ngoxa ekunye nentsapho yakowabo okanye abahlobo. Uthi: “Kukungabi nambeko ukwenza loo nto. Xa ndisenza loo nto ndithi kubo kubhetele ndithethe nomnye umntu kunokuba ndithethe nabo.” UEdward ona-17 uthi kufuneka ayeke ukuphazamisa abantu besathetha. UJennifer ebekukhe kwathethwa ngaye uthi uza kuphucula indlela abaphatha ngayo abantu abakhulileyo. Uthi: “Ndidla ngokubabulisa ndingxamile ndize emva koko ndiye kwiintanga zam. Kodwa ngoku ndizinika ithuba lokubazi. Loo nto iye yandinceda ndaphucula kakhulu ekuboniseni imbeko.”
IBhayibhile ithi: “Ninyamekela, kungekuphela nje izilangazelelo zobuqu, kodwa kwanezilangazelelo zabanye.”—Filipi 2:4.
Zihlole ukuba uqhuba njani. Kangangenyanga, hlola indlela ozenza ngayo izinto kule nkalo ufuna ukuyiphucula. Ekupheleni kwenyanga, zibuze: ‘Ukuba nembeko kwam kuye kwandinceda njani ndangumntu ongcono? Kufuneka ndiphucule phi?’ Zibekele usukelo olutsha.
IBhayibhile ithi: “Kanye njengoko nifuna abantu benze kuni, yenzani ngendlela efanayo kubo.”—Luka 6:31.

Chapter 2
1 Wathi kum, Nyana womntu, yima ngeenyawo zakho, ndithethe nawe.
2 Kwangena ke uMoya kum, xa abethetha nam, wandimisa ngeenyawo zam, ndamva othetha kum.
3 Wathi kum, Nyana womntu, ndikuthuma koonyana bakaSirayeli, kwiintlanga ezingabagwiliki, abagwilikileyo kum; bona nooyise babo bakreqile kum, kwada kwayile mini.
4 Oonyana baziingwanyalala ubuso, balukhuni intliziyo. Ndikuthuma kubo; uze uthi kubo, Itsho iNkosi uYehova.
5 Ke bona (nokuba bathe beva, nokuba bathe bala, kuba beyindlu eneenkani) baya kwazi ukuba bekukho umprofeti phakathi kwabo.
6 Wena ke, nyana womntu, musa ukuboyika, ungawoyiki amazwi abo; nangani usemarhawini nasemeveni, uhleli phezu koonomadudwane, musa ukuwoyika amazwi abo, ungaqhiphuki umbilini bubuso babo, kuba bayindlu eneenkani.
7 Wathethe ke kubo amazwi am, nokuba bathe beva, nokuba bathe bala; ngokuba baneenkani.
8 Wena ke, nyana womntu, yiva endikuthethayo kuwe; ungabi nankani, njengale ndlu ineenkani; yakhamisa, udle endikunikayo.
9 Ndabona, naso isandla solulelwe kum; nantso kuso incwadi esongwayo.
10 Wayitwabulula phambi kwam; yaye ke ibhaliwe ngaphakathi nangaphandle, kubhalwe kuyo izimbonono, nezikhwino, nezimema.

Incwadi Yonyaka Ka-2016
“Uthando lwenu lobuzalwana maluqhubeke.”—Hebhere 13:1
‘Abaninzi baya kuthiyana. Luya kuphola uthando lwabaninzi.’ (Mat. 24:10, 12) Ngesi siprofeto uYesu wabonisa ukuba abantu ababephila kwiminyaka yangaphambi kokutshatyalaliswa kweYerusalem ngo-70 C.E., babeza kuphelelwa luthando. Ngokwahlukileyo koko, abafundi bakaKristu babeza kubonwa ngothando abanalo. (Yoh. 13:35) Amazwi kaPawulos amele ukuba awakhuthaza nyhani amaKristu angamaHebhere aseYerusalem kuba ayebonisa ukuba anothando lobuzalwana kwaye ayefanele aqhubeke elubonisa.
Namhlanje, sisondele ekuphelisweni kwenkqubo yezinto yeli hlabathi likaSathana. Njengabazalwana bethu benkulungwane yokuqala, siphila nabantu abathanda imali, iziyolo nabazidlayo kunokuba bathande uThixo nommelwane. (2 Tim. 3:1-4) Sekunjalo, wona amaNgqina kaYehova aqhubeka ethandana ehlabathini lonke. Kwanga singamdumisa uYehova oluthando lumntwisiwe, ngokuqhubeka nothando lwethu lobuzalwana.

Chapter 4
1 Zintanda, musani ukukholwa ngoomoya bonke, bacikideni oomoya ukuba ngabakaThixo na; ngokuba baninzi abaprofeti ababuxoki, abaphume bangena ehlabathini.
2 Mazini ngale nto uMoya kaThixo: umoya wonke omvumayo uYesu Kristu eze esenyameni, ungokaThixo;
3 nomoya wonke ongamvumiyo uYesu Kristu eze esenyameni, asingokaThixo; lo ngokamchasi-Kristu, lowo niwuvileyo ukuba uyeza; nangoku uselukho ehlabathini.
4 Nina ningabakaThixo, bantwanana, nibeyisile bona; ngokuba lowo ukuni nguyena mkhulu kunalowo usehlabathini.
5 Bona ngabehlabathi; ngenxa yoko bathetha okwehlabathi, ihlabathi liyabeva ke.
6 Thina singabakaThixo, lowo umaziyo uThixo uyasiva thina; ongengokaThixo akasiva. Siwazi ngaloo nto umoya wayo inyaniso, nomoya walo ulahlekiso.
7 Zintanda, masithandane; ngokuba uthando lwaphuma kuThixo. Bonke abanothando bazelwe nguThixo, bayamazi uThixo.
8 Lowo ungenaluthando akazanga amazi uThixo, ngokuba uThixo uluthando.
9 Kwabonakaliswa ngale nto ukusithanda kukaThixo, ngokuthi uThixo amthume ehlabathini uNyana wakhe, ekuphela kwamzeleyo, ukuze sidle ubomi naye.
10 Uthando lulapha, ingekukuba samthandayo uThixo thina, ikukuba wasithandayo yena, wamthuma uNyana wakhe ukuba abe sisicamagushelo sezono zethu.
11 Zintanda, ukuba wenjenjalo uThixo ukusithanda, nathi sifanele ukuthandana.
12 Akukho namnye owakha wambona uThixo; ukuba sithi sithandane, uThixo uhleli kuthi, nothando lwakhe lugqibelele ngaphakathi kwethu.
13 Sazi ngale nto ukuba sihleli kuye, naye uhleli kuthi; ngokuba usinike okoMoya wakhe.
14 Sibonile thina, siyangqina, ukuba uYise umthumile uNyana ukuba nguMsindisi wehlabathi.
15 Othe wavuma ukuba uYesu unguye uNyana kaThixo, uThixo uhleli kuye, naye uhleli kuye uThixo.
16 Sikwazile thina, sakholwa kukusithanda kukaThixo. UThixo uluthando; lowo uhleli eluthandweni uhleli kuye uThixo, noThixo uhleli kuye.
17 Lugqibelele ngale nto uthando olukuthi, ukuze sibe nokungafihlisi ngomhla womgwebo; ngokuba, njengoko anjalo yena, sinjalo nathi kweli hlabathi.
18 Akukho loyiko eluthandweni; lusuka uthando olugqibeleleyo luluphose phandle uloyiko; ngokuba uloyiko lunexhala; lowo ke woyikayo akagqibelele eluthandweni.
19 Thina siyamthanda, ngokuba yena wasithanda kuqala.
20 Ukuba umntu uthe, Ndiyamthanda uThixo, wamthiya umzalwana wakhe, ulixoki; kuba lowo ungamthandiyo umzalwana wakhe ambonileyo, angathini na ukumthanda uThixo angambonanga?
21 Nguwo lo umthetho esinawo uvela kuye: ukuba athi lowo umthandayo uThixo, amthande nomzalwana wakhe.

Chapter 7
1 Musani ukugweba, ukuze ningagwetywa.
2 Kuba ngogwebo enigweba ngalo, niya kugwetywa kwangalo nani; nangomlinganiselo enilinganisela abanye ngawo, niya kulinganiselwa kwangawo nani.
3 Yini na ke ukuba usibone isibi esisesweni lomzalwana wakho, kanti akuwuqiqi wona umqadi okwelakho iliso?
4 Okanye ungathini na ukuthi kumzalwana wakho, Yeka ndisikhuphe isibi eso esweni lakho, kanti nango umqadi kwelakho iliso?
5 Mhanahanisindini, wukhuphe kuqala umqadi lowo esweni lakho, wandule ukubona kakuhle ukusikhupha isibi esisesweni lomzalwana wakho.
6 Musani ukukunika izinja okungcwele, kanjalo ningaziphosi iiperile zenu phambi kweehagu, hleze zizinyathele ngamanqina azo, zijike ziniqwenge.
7 Celani, nophiwa; funani, nofumana; nkqonkqozani, novulelwa;
8 kuba wonke umntu ocelayo uyazuza, nalowo ufunayo uyafumana, nalowo unkqonkqozayo uya kuvulelwa.
9 Nguwuphi na umntu kuni ongathi, ukuba unyana wakhe uthe wacela isonka, amnike ilitye?
10 Athi, ukuba uthe wacela intlanzi, amnike inyoka?
11 Ukuba ngoko nina, nikhohlakele nje, niyakwazi ukubapha abantwana benu izipho ezilungileyo, wobeka phi na yena uYihlo osemazulwini ukugqithisela ngokubapha okulungileyo abo bamcelayo?
12 Zonke izinto ngoko enisukuba ninga bangazenza abantu kuni, yenzani ezikwanjalo nani kubo; kuba oko kungumthetho nabaprofeti.
13 Ngenani ngesango elimxinwa; ngokuba libanzi isango, iphangalele nendlela, esa entshabalalweni; baninzi ke abangena ngalo.
14 Ngokuba limxinwa isango, icuthene nendlela, esa ebomini; bambalwa ke abalifumanayo.
15 Ke kaloku balumkeleni abaprofeti ababuxoki, abeza kuni ngezambatho zeegusha, ngaphakathi ke beziingcuka eziqwengayo.
16 Nobaqonda ngeziqhamo zabo. Kukha kukhiwe iidiliya emithaneni enameva, namakhiwane ezinkunzaneni, yini na?
17 Ngokunjalo yonke imithi elungileyo ivelisa iziqhamo ezihle, ke wona umthi ongenguwo uvelisa iziqhamo ezibi.
18 umthi olungileyo awunakuvelisa ziqhamo zibi, nomthi ongenguwo awunakuvelisa ziqhamo zihle.
19 Wonke umthi ongavelisi ziqhamo zihle uyagawulwa, uphoswe emlilweni.
20 Ngoko ke nobaqonda ngeziqhamo zabo.
21 Asingabo bonke abathi kum, Nkosi, Nkosi, abaya kungena ebukumkanini bamazulu; ngokwenzayo ukuthanda kukaBawo osemazulwini.
22 Baninzi abaya kuthi kum ngaloo mini, Nkosi, Nkosi, sasingathe na egameni lakho saprofeta, sathi egameni lakho sakhupha iidemon, sathi egameni lakho senza imisebenzi yamandla emininzi?
23 Ndandule ndibaxelele, ndithi, Andizanga ndinazi; mkani kum, nina nenza okuchasene nomthetho.
24 Wonke umntu osukuba ngoko eweva la mazwi am, awenze, ndomfanekisa nendoda eyingqondi, yona yayakhelayo elulwalweni indlu yayo.
25 Yehla imvula, yeza imilambo, yavuthuza imimoya, yagaleleka kuloo ndlu; ayawa, kuba ibisekelwe elulwalweni.
26 Nomntu wonke owevayo la mazwi am, angawenzi, wofanekiswa nendoda esisiyatha, yona yayakhelayo entlabathini indlu yayo.
27 Yehla imvula, yeza imilambo, yavuthuza imimoya, yabetha kuloo ndlu; yawa; saba sikhulu ke isiwo sayo.
28 Kuthe ke, xenikweni uYesu ebewagqibile la mazwi, zakhwankqiswa iindimbane kukufundisa kwakhe;
29 kuba ebezifundisa njengonegunya, engafundisi njengabo ababhali.

Ukubhengeza I-JW.ORG Kwiphulo Lokubhengeza Iincwadi EToronto
Ukususela nge-13 ukuya kutsho nge-16 kaNovemba, 2014, isixeko saseToronto saququzelela iphulo lokubhengeza iincwadi, eziprintiweyo nezikwi-intanethi. Kwakukho abantu abangaphezu kwe-20 000 kwelo phulo leentsuku ezine.
Abanye ababeze kubhengeza, yayingamaNgqina KaYehova, enezitendi ezinemibala emihle kunye neetablet zokubonisa indlela yokusebenzisa i-jw.org.
Omnye umququzeleli wesi siganeko wathi: “Iwebhsayithi yenu yeyezimini. Ndicinga ukuba nabanye bangafunda kuni.” Abantu abaye bayibuka bathi le webhsayithi yenziwe kakuhle, kulula ukuyisebenzisa futhi iphendula imibuzo ebalulekileyo. Babechukumisekile yindlela le webhsayithi ebancede ngayo abantu bakwazi ukumelana neengxaki zabo.
Njengoko amaNgqina ayencokola nabantu kwizitendi, afumanisa ukuba abantu abaninzi zange bakhe beva nge-jw.org ngaphambi kweli phulo. Phantse bonke ababekho baye bathatha iinkcukacha zamaNgqina okanye iphecana elithi Sinokuzifumana Phi Iimpendulo Zemibuzo Ebalulekileyo Ngobomi? Abaninzi bathe baza kuyijonga le webhsayithi kwakhona, baza abanye bacela ukuba amaNgqina KaYehova abatyelele ezindlini zabo.
NgoLwesihlanu yayilusuku labantwana, ngoko amaNgqina abonisa iividiyo zoopopayi ezifumaneka kwi-jw.org. Abantwana besikolo ababehamba nootitshala babo, babesima baze babukele.
Indoda yaseChicago ephangela kwinkampani eprinta iiBhayibhile yayithanda nyhani indlela esemgangathweni ngayo iNguqulelo Yehlabathi Elitsha YeZibhalo Ezingcwele. Yafuna ukudibana nabapapashi bayo ibe yanikwa iinkcukacha zabo.
Kwiilwimi eziyi-700 ezikhoyo kwiwebhsayithi yethu, ziyi-16 ezaye zafundwa ngabantu ababekho—sisiAmharic, isiBengali, isiFrentshi, isiGujarati, isiGrike, isiHindi, isiKorea, isiNgesi, isiPhuthukezi, iSpanish, isiSwedish, isiTamil, isiTigrinya, isiTshayina, isiUrdu nesiVietnam.
Eliny’ iNgqina elalikho kweli phulo laphawula ukuba kukho umahluko omkhulu phakathi kokuxelela abantu ngale webhsayithi nokubabonisa. Lathi, “Siye sakuvuyela nyhani ukubonisa abantu le webhsayithi.”

Ubomi Ngamaxesha Okubhalwa KweBhayibhile—UMalusi
‘Njengomalusi uya kuwalusa umhlambi wakhe. Ngengalo yakhe uya kuqokelela ndawonye amatakane; uya kuwathwala ngesifuba sakhe.’—ISAYA 40:11.
PHANTSE kuyo yonke iBhayibhile kusoloko kuthethwa ngabelusi, ukususela kwincwadi yokuqala yeGenesis, ukuya kuthi ga kwincwadi yokugqibela, yeSityhilelo. (Genesis 4:2; ISityhilelo 12:5) Amadoda abalaseleyo njengoAbraham, uMoses noKumkani uDavide babengabelusi. Umdumisi uDavide waluchaza kakuhle uxanduva lomalusi okhathalayo. Indumiso enxulunyaniswa noAsafu ithi uDavide ngumalusi wabantu bakaThixo.—INdumiso 78:70-72.
Xa uYesu wayelapha emhlabeni, ukwalusa yayisengumsebenzi obalulekileyo. UYesu wathi yena ‘ungumalusi omhle’ wayedla ngokusebenzisa iimpawu zomalusi olungileyo ukuze afundise izifundo ezibalulekileyo. (Yohane 10:2-4, 11) KwanoYehova uThixo uSomandla ufaniswa ‘nomalusi.’—Isaya 40:10, 11; INdumiso 23:1-4.
Ziziphi izilwanyana awayezalusa? Wawubandakanya ntoni umsebenzi wakhe? Yaye yintoni esinokuyifunda kumalusi?
Izimvu Neebhokhwe
KuSirayeli wamandulo abelusi babesalusa izimvu ezinomsila osixwexwe noboya obungqindilili. Izimvu ezingamaduna zazineempondo ngoxa zona ezizalayo zazingqukuva. Ekubeni ezi zilwanyana zilulamile kwakulula ukuba zibe ngamaxhoba amarhamncwa asendle.
Abelusi babenyamekela neebhokhwe. Zona zazidla ngokuba mnyama okanye zibe mdaka ngebala. Iindlebe zazo ezingamabhakubhaku nezinde zazihlatywa lula ngameva zize zibambeke nasematyholweni xa zinyuka imimango naxa zisitya amagqabi.
Umalusi wayenoxanduva lokufundisa izimvu neebhokhwe zakhe ukuthobela imiyalelo yakhe. Nakuba, kunjalo umalusi olungileyo wayezinonophela ade azithiye namagama ezaziweva xa zibizwa ngawo.—Yohane 10:14, 16.
Amaxesha Okwalusa
Entwasahlobo, suku ngalunye umalusi wayekhaphela umhlambi wakhe kumadlelo akufutshane nakowabo. Ngeli xesha lonyaka, impahla emfutshane iyazala nto leyo eza kuwandisa umhlambi. Eli yayikwalixesha lokucheba iigusha nelokugcoba.
Abanini bezimvu abanemihlambi emincinane babeyidibanisa baze baqashe umalusi. Abelusi abaqeshiweyo babedume ngokungakhathali behoya eyabo impahla kuphela.—Yohane 10:12, 13.
Emva kokuba kuvuniwe emasimini, umalusi wayebhuqisa. Kwakusithi bakuqalisa ubushushu behlobo, abelusi bayikhaphele ejojweni imihlambi yabo. Kwakuqengqeleka iintsuku, abelusi belala endle, belinde imihlambi yabo kuba befuna ifumane ingca entle. Maxa wambi umalusi wayewuvalela emqolombeni umhlambi wakhe, ukuze awukhusele kwiingcuka nakoodyakalashe. Ukuba kuye kwakhala ingcuka ebusuku umhlambi wawuphakuzela kodwa ilizwi lomalusi laliwenza uzole.
Umalusi wayezibala izimvu ngaphambi kokuba zilale aze ajonge ukuba zisaphilile zonke kusini na. Ekuseni, wayezibiza, zize izimvu zimlandele ukuya emadlelweni. (Yohane 10:3, 4) Emin’ emaqanda umalusi wayesiya kuyiseza amanzi imihlambi yakhe. Xa ephelile amanzi emlanjeni umalusi wayesiya nazo equleni aze azikhelele amanzi.
Xa lisiya ngasekupheleni ixesha lokunqaba kwemvula, umalusi wayewusa kumathafa angaselwandle umhlambi wakhe. Xa kuqalisa iimvula zasebusika ezibandayo, wayebuyela nawo ekhaya. Kungenjalo, imfuyo yakhe yayinokuchanabeka kwimvula ebandayo, kwisichotho nasekhephini. Ukususela ngoNovemba ukusa entwasahlobo, abelusi babengaphumi nemihlambi yabo.
Ukuxhobela Umsebenzi
Impahla eyayinxitywa ngumalusi yayingenabuceducedu kodwa yayomelele. Yayenzelwe ukumkhusela emvuleni nakumoya obandayo wasebusuku, mhlawumbi wayesembatha ugqothifele abe ngaphantsi enxibe isambatho esingenamikhono. Iimbadada zazimkhusela angahlatywa ngameva nazezinye izinto ezibukhali, aze intloko ayigqume ngesikhafu esenziwe ngelaphu.
Izixhobo zomalusi zazidla ngokuquka ezi zinto zilandelayo: Ingxowa yesikhumba yokuphatha ukutya, okunjengesonka, iminquma, iziqhamo ezomisiweyo netshizi; ibhunguza elifakwe iintsinjana ezibukhali elalinokulingana nemitha ubude; Ibhozo; intonga asimelela ngayo umalusi xa ehamba; intsuba yokugcina amanzi; imvaba yokukha amanzi equleni; isilingi awayegibisela ngaso igusha okanye ibhokhwe eziphumayo emhlambini okanye amarhamncwa asendle azingelayo; nempempe eyenziwe ngengcongolo, awayeziyolisa ngayo okanye ayidlalele umhlambi wakhe.
Ekubeni umalusi wayeyinyamekela imfuyo, yona yayimnika ubisi nenyama. Uboya nesikhumba kwakunaniselwana ngazo kusenziwa impahla nezinye izinto. Uboya bebhokhwe babusenza ilaphu yaye iibhokhwe neegusha kwakusenziwa ngazo amadini.
Umzekelo Wokuxeliswa
Abalusi abafanelekileyo babekhuthele, bethembekile yaye bekhaliphile. Babede babeke esichengeni ubomi babo ukuze bakhusele umhlambi.—1 Samuweli 17:34-36.
Akumangalisi ke ngoko ukuba uYesu nabafundi bakhe basebenzise umalusi njengomzekelo kubaveleli abangamaKristu. (Yohane 21:15-17; IZenzo 20:28) Njengomalusi olungileyo wamaxesha okubhalwa kweBhayibhile namhlanje abaveleli bazama ‘ukuwalusa umhlambi kaThixo abawunyamekelayo, kungengakunyanzelwa, kodwa ngokuzithandela; kungekhona ngokuthanda inzuzo yokunganyaniseki, kodwa ngentumekelelo.’—1 Petros 5:2.

INQAKU ELINGUMXHOLO | UNOKUYIFUMANA PHI INTUTHUZELO?
Sonke Siyafuna Ukuthuthuzelwa
Usazikhumbula usiwa ngoxa wawusemncinci? Mhlawumbi wasikeka esandleni okanye wagruzuka idolo. Usayikhumbula indlela awakuthuthuzela ngayo umama wakho? Mhlawumbi wacoca elo nxeba waza walibopha. Wawulila, kodwa wakugona, ethetha amazwi amnandi, waza wathula. Ngelo xesha, wayehlala ekho umntu okuthuthuzelayo xa kukho into ekukhathazayo.
Njegoko sikhula, ubomi buya busiba nzima. Kufika ingxaki emva kwenye, kwaye banqabile nabantu bokusithuthuzela. Kubuhlungu ukuthi, iingxaki zabantu abadala azinakuconjululwa lula njengokubotshwa inxeba nokugonwa ngumama. Nantsi imizekelo embalwa.
Wakha wayifumana intlungu yokuphelelwa ngumsebenzi? UJulian uthi ukugxothwa kwakhe emsebenzini kwamothusa kakhulu kangangokuba wazibuza, ‘Ndiza kuyinyamekela njani intsapho yam? Emva kweminyaka ndisebenzela le nkampani, kutheni ingasandifuni nje ngoku?’
Mhlawumbi usentlungwini yokuphelelwa ngu- mtshato. URaquel uthi: “Ndaba buhlungu nyhani xa ndashiywa ngumyeni ndingacinganga kwiinyanga eziyi-18 ezidlulileyo. Intliziyo yayilihlwili.”
Kuthekani ukuba ugula kakhulu kwaye awude uchache. Ngamany’ amaxesha usenokufana nosolusapho uYobhi owathi: “Ndibugatyile [ubomi bam]; andiyi kuphila ukusa kwixesha elingenammiselo.” (Yobhi 7:16) Mhlawumbi uziva njengoLuis, indoda ekhulileyo ekwiminyaka yoo-80 eyathi, “Ngamany’ amaxesha iba ngathi sendilinde ukufa.”
Masithi ufuna ukuthuthuzelwa ngenxa yokuba uswelekelwe ngumntu omthandayo. URobert uthi: “Xa unyana wam wasweleka kwingozi yenqwelo-moya ndandisithi kuyaxokwa. Emva koko, zabuya iingqondo. Intlungu endandikuyo yayingathetheki.”—Luka 2:35.
URobert, uLuis, uRaquel, noJulian bathuthuzelwa kwezo ntlungu zingathethekiyo. Bathuthuzelwa ngoyena mntu ukwaziyo ukuthuthuzela, uThixo uSomandla. Uthuthuzela njani? Ngaba nawe uya kukuthuthuzela xa usentlungwini?

Chapter 23
1 Ngawo la ke amazwi okugqibela kaDavide: Utsho uDavide unyana kaYese, Itsho indoda eyaphakanyiselwa phezulu, Umthanjiswa woThixo kaYakobi, Omihobe imnandi kwaSirayeli,
2 Ukuthi, UMoya kaYehova uthetha ngam, Ukukhuluma kwakhe kuselulwimini lwam.
3 Uthi uThixo kaSirayeli, ULiwa lakwaSirayeli uthetha kum, uthi, Kuya kuvela umlawuli woluntu olilungisa, Elawula ngokoyika uThixo.
4 Unjengokukhanya kwentsasa, lakuphuma ilanga, Njengentsasa engenamafu, Lakusa ibisina, Lwakuphuma uhlaza endle.
5 Kuba ayinjalo yini na indlu yam kuThixo? Kuba undenzele umnqophiso ongunaphakade, Walungiswa ngeento zonke, wagcinwa; Kuba ukusindiswa kwam konke, nokunqwena kwam konke, Akayi kukuhlumisa yini na?
6 Ke amatshijolo onke ephela anjengemithana enameva ecukulwayo, Kuba ingenakuthatyathwa ngesandla.
7 Umntu ukuyiphatha Uzalisa isandla ngentsimbi noluthi lwentshuntshe, Itshiswe itshe ngumlilo kwalapho ikhona.
8 Ngawo la amagama amagorha kaDavide: nguYoshebhe-bhashebhete waseTakemon, obeyintloko yabaphathi-mikhosi; yena watyityimbisa intshuntshe yakhe phezu kwamakhulu asibhozo awahlatywa ngesihlandlo esinye.
9 Nganeno kwakhe nguElazare, unyana kaDodayi, unyana womAhowa, obelelinye kumagorha lawo mathathu abenoDavide ekuwangcikiveni kwawo amaFilisti, abebuthelene khona emfazweni, akubon’ ukuba anyukile amadoda akwaSirayeli:
10 yena wesuka wawabulala amaFilisti, sada sadinwa isandla sakhe, somela ekreleni isandla sakhe; wenza ke uYehova usindiso olukhulu ngaloo mini; babuya abantu bamlandela, banela ukuthimba kuphela.
11 Nganeno kwakhe nguShama, unyana ka-Age umHarari. AmaFilisti ayehlanganisene asisiqhu. Kwaye kukho apho isiqwenga somhlaba sizele ziintlumaya; basaba abantu ebusweni bamaFilisti;
12 wesuka yena wema esazulwini sesiqwenga eso, wasihlutha, wawabulala amaFilisti. UYehova wenza ke usindiso olukhulu.
13 Kwehla isithathu sabaziintloko emashumini amathathu abaphathi-mikhosi, beza kuDavide, xa kuvunwayo, emqolombeni waseAdulam; saye isiqhu samaFilisti simise iintente entilini yamaRafa.
14 UDavide oko ubesemboniselweni; ikampu yamaFilisti oko ibiseBhetelehem.
15 Wanqwena uDavide, wathi, Akwaba, bethu, bendingasezwa amanzi equla laseBhetelehem, elisesangweni!
16 Atyhudisa loo magorha mathathu empini yamaFilisti, akha amanzi equleni laseBhetelehem elisesangweni, awathwala awazisa kuDavide. Akavuma ukuwasela, wawathululela phantsi phambi koYehova.
17 Wathi, Makube lee kum, Yehova, ukwenza oko. Asiligazi na eli lamadoda ahambe encame imiphefumlo yawo? Akavuma ke ukuwasela. Enza ezo zinto amagorha lawo mathathu.
18 Ke uAbhishayi, umninawa kaYowabhi, unyana kaTseruya, yena ube eyintloko yabaphathi-mikhosi; wathi rhuthu intshuntshe yakhe phezu kwamakhulu amathathu abahlatywayo. Wayenegama ke kwabo bathathu.
19 Wayezukile okunene ngaphezu kwamashumi amathathu lawo, waba ngumthetheli wawo; kodwa akafikanga kwabaya bathathu.
20 Ke uBhenaya unyana kaYehoyada, unyana wendoda enobukroti, ozenzo zininzi, waseKabhetseli, yena wabulala iingwanyalala ezimbini zakwaMowabhi; yena wehla, wabulala ingonyama equleni phakathi, mini ngekhephu.
21 Yena wabulala indoda engumYiputa, indoda enewonga; umYiputa lowo wayephethe intshuntshe. Wehla, waya kuye enentonga, wayihlutha intshuntshe esandleni somYiputa lowo, wambulala ngentshuntshe yakhe.
22 Wenza ezo zinto uBhenaya unyana kaYehoyada; waba negama ke kumagorha lawo mathathu.
23 Ubezukile kunamashumi amathathu lawo; kodwa akafikanga kwabaya bathathu. UDavide wammisa ephakathini lakhe.
24 UAsaheli, umninawa kaYowabhi, ebengomnye kumashumi amathathu lawo; nguElihanan unyana kaDodayi waseBhetelehem;
25 nguShama waseHarodi; nguElika waseHarodi;
26 nguHeletse wasePeleti; nguIra unyana kaIkeshe waseTekowa:
27 nguAbhiyezere waseAnatoti; nguMebhunayi umHusha;
28 nguTsalimon umAhowa; nguMaharayi waseNetofa;
29 nguHelebhe, unyana kaBhahana waseNetofa; nguItayi, unyana kaRibhayi, waseGibheha yoonyana bakaBhenjamin;
30 nguBhenaya wasePiraton; nguHidayi wasezihlanjeni zaseGahashe;
31 nguAbhihalebhon waseArabha; nguAzemavete waseBhahurim;
32 nguEliyabha waseShahalebhon; nguBhene-yashen; nguYonatan;
33 nguShama umHarari; nguAhiyam, unyana kaSharare umArari;
34 nguElifelete unyana ka-Ahasebhayi, unyana wowaseMahaka; nguEliyam unyana ka-Ahitofele, waseGilo;
35 nguHetsero waseKarmele; nguPaharayi waseArbhi;
36 nguIgali unyana kaNatan waseTsobha; nguBhani wakwaGadi;
37 nguTseleke umAmon; nguNaharayi waseBheroti, umphathi weentonga zikaYowabhi unyana kaTseruya;
38 nguIra umItri: nguGarebhe umItri;
39 ngu-Uriya umHeti; bebonke bangamashumi omathathu anesixhenxe.

Chapter 15
1 UDavide wazenzela izindlu emzini kaDavide; wayilungiselela indawo ityeya kaThixo, wayimisela intente.
2 Waza uDavide wathi, Mayingathwalwa ityeya kaThixo ngabangebaLevi; ngokuba unyule bona uYehova ukuba bayithwale ityeya kaThixo, bamlungiselele ngonaphakade.
3 UDavide wawabizela ndawonye onke amaSirayeli eYerusalem, ukuze ityeya kaYehova inyuswe, isiwe endaweni yayo abeyilungisele yona.
4 Wabahlanganisa uDavide oonyana baka-Aron nabaLevi.
5 Koonyana bakaKehati yangu-Uriyeli umthetheli, nabazalwana bakhe, belikhulu elinamanci mabini.
6 Koonyana bakaMerari yanguAsaya umthetheli, nabazalwana bakhe, bengamakhulu amabini anamanci mabini.
7 Koonyana bakaGershom yanguYoweli umthetheli, nabazalwana bakhe, belikhulu elinamanci mathathu.
8 Koonyana bakaElitsafan yanguShemaya umthetheli, nabazalwana bakhe, bengamakhulu amabini.
9 Koonyana bakaHebron yanguEliyeli umthetheli, nabazalwana bakhe, bengamashumi asibhozo.
10 Koonyana bakaUziyeli yanguAminadabhi umthetheli, nabazalwana bakhe, belikhulu elinashumi-nye linababini.
11 UDavide wabiza ooTsadoki noAbhiyatare ababingeleli, nabaLevi ooUriyeli, noAsaya, noYoweli, noShemaya, noEliyeli, noAminadabhi.
12 Wathi kubo, Niziintloko zezindlu zooyihlo kubaLevi; zingcwaliseni nina nabazalwana benu, ninyuse ityeya kaYehova uThixo kaSirayeli, ize apho ndiyilungiselele khona;
13 ngokuba, yabingenini nje enayinyusayo kwasekuqaleni, wasityhobozela uYehova uThixo wethu, ngokuba singamfunanga ngokwesiko.
14 Bazingcwalisa ke ababingeleli nabaLevi, ukuba bayinyuse ityeya kaYehova uThixo kaSirayeli.
15 Bayithwala oonyana bakaLevi ityeya kaThixo, njengoko abemwisele umthetho uMoses ngokwelizwi likaYehova, emagxeni abo, ngezibonda ezikuwo.
16 Wathi uDavide kubathetheli babaLevi, mabamise abazalwana babo babe ziimvumi, beneempahla zokuvuma: imirhubhe, neehadi, namacangci akhenkcezayo, kuphakanyiswe ngesandi sovuyo.
17 AbaLevi bamisa ke uHeman unyana kaYoweli, nakubazalwana bakhe uSafu unyana kaBherekiya, nakoonyana bakaMerari, abazalwana babo, uEtan unyana kaKushaya,
18 benabazalwana babo bolwesibini udidi: yanguZekariya, noBhen, noYahaziyeli, noShemiramoti, noYehiyeli, noUni, noEliyabhi, noBhenaya, noMahazeya, noMatitiya, noElifelehu, noMikeneya, oo-Obhedi-edom, noYehiyeli, abamasango.
19 Iimvumi, ooHeman, noAsafu, noEtan, baba ngabokuvakalisa ngamacangci obhedu;
20 ooZekariya, noHaziyeli, noShemiramoti, noYehiyeli, noUni, noEliyabhi, noMagaseya, noBhenaya, ngemirhubhe, ngeleentombi ilizwi;
21 ooMatitiya, noElifelehu, noMikeneha, no-Obhedi-edom, noYehiyeli, noAzaziya ngeehadi, ngelamadoda ilizwi, ukuba bahlabele.
22 UKenaniya, umthetheli wabaLevi ekuthwaleni, wafundisa ukuthwala; ngokuba ebenengqondo yoko.
23 OoBherekiya noElikana babengabamasango etyeya.
24 OoShebhaniya, noYehoshafati, noNataniyeli, noAmasayi, noZekariya, noBhenaya, noEliyezere, ababingeleli, babengabokuvuthela ngamaxilongo phambi kwetyeya kaThixo, Oo-Obhedi-edom noYehiya babengabamasango etyeya.
25 Kwathi ke ooDavide, namadoda amakulu akwaSirayeli, nabathetheli bamawaka, baya kuyinyusa ityeya yomnqophiso kaYehova endlwini kaObhedi-edom, bevuya.
26 Kwathi, ekubancedeni kukaThixo abaLevi, bayithwala ityeya yomnqophiso kaYehova, babingelela iinkunzi ezintsha zeenkomo zasixhenxe, neenkunzi zeegusha zasixhenxe.
27 Wayambethe ingubo yokwaleka yelinen ecikizekileyo uDavide, nabaLevi bonke ababethwele ityeya, neemvumi, noKenaniya umphathi wabathwali; ke uDavide wayebhinqe iefodi yelinen emhlophe.
28 AmaSirayeli onke abeyinyusa ityeya yomnqophiso kaYehova eduma, enesandi sezigodlo, nesamaxilongo, nesamacangci, evakalisa ngemirhubhe nangeehadi.
29 Kwathi ke ekufikeni kwetyeya yomnqophiso kaYehova emzini kaDavide, walunguza ngefestile uMikali, intombi kaSawule, wabona ukumkani uDavide esina, eqamba, wamcekisa entliziyweni yakhe.
