UJehova ubusisile kakhulu inkosi yami , yaze yaba nkulu ; uyinike izimvu, nezinkomo, nesiliva, negolide, nezinceku, nezincekukazi, namakamela, nezimbongolo.

USara umkankosi yami wayizalela inkosi yami indodana esemdala ; kuyona inikele konke enakho.

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

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

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

Bheka, manje kubusa u-Adoniya; wena nkosi yami, nkosi, awukwazi;

Wena nkosi yami , nkosi, amehlo abo bonke abakwa -Israyeli akuwe ukuba ubatshele ukuthi ngubani ozakuhlala esihlalweni sobukhosi senkosi yami , inkosi, emva kwayo,

funa, lapho inkosi yami , inkosi, isilele koyise , mina nendodana yami uSolomoni kuthiwe sinecala.

UNathani wathi : Nkosi yami , nkosi, wena ushilo yini ukuthi : U -Adoniya uyakuba yinkosi emva kwami, ahlale esihlalweni sami sobukhosi, na?

Le nto yenziwe yini yinkosi yami , inkosi, ungazazisanga izinceku zakho ukuthi ngubani oyakuhlala esihlalweni sobukhosi senkosi yami, inkosi, emva kwayo, na? Ukubekwa kukaSolomoni abe yinkosi

Wayesekhothama uBati Sheba , ubuso bakhe bubheke phansi , wakhuluma enkosini, wathi: Mana njalo, nkosi yami, nkosi Davide.

Inkosi yathi kubo: Thathani izinceku zenkosi yenu, nimkhwelise uSolomoni indodana yami kuwo umnyuzi wami, nimehlisele eGihoni,

UBenaya indodana kaJehoyada wayiphendula inkosi , wathi: Amen; uJehova uNkulunkulu wenkosi yami, inkosi, makasho njalo naye.

Njengalokho uJehova waba nenkosi yami , inkosi, makabe naye uSolomoni, asenze isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi sibe sikhulu kunesihlalo sobukhosi senkosi yami, inkosi uDavide.

Wayesethi uShimeyi enkosini : Lelo zwi lilungile ; inceku yakho iyakwenza njengokusho kwenkosi yami, inkosi. UShimeyi wahlala eJerusalema izinsuku eziningi.

Uma uhamba ngezindlela zami , ugcine izimiso zami nemiyalo yami , njengalokho uyihlo uDavide wahamba, ngiyakwandisa izinsuku zakho.

Izinceku zami ziyakuyehlisa eLebanoni, ziyiyise elwandle, mina ngiyenze ibe yizihlenga ezihamba elwandle , ziye endaweni oyakungiyalela yona , zihlakazwe khona; wena wozithatha khona, ufeze engikufunayo ngokubapha abendlu yami ukudla.

Kumi kanje maqondana nale ndlu oyakhayo : uma uyakuhamba ngezimiso zami, wenze izahlulelo zami , ugcine yonke imiyalo yami ukuba u hambe ngayo, ngiyakugcwalisa kuwe izwi engalikhuluma kuDavide uyihlo:

Ndodana yami, hlakanipha, uthokozise inhliziyo yam i ukuba ngiphendule ongisolayo.

UJehova wathi kuye: Ngiwuzwile umkhuleko wakho nokunxusa kwakho onxuse ngakho phambi kwami ; ngiyingcwelisile le ndlu oyakhileyo ukuba ngibeke khona igama lami kuze kube phakade ; amehlo ami nenhliziyo yami kuyakuba khona izinsuku zonke.

Kodwa uma nibuya ekungilandeleni , nina noma abantwana benu , ningagcini imiyalo yami nezimiso zami engikubeke phambi kwenu , kepha nihambe nikhonze abanye onkulunkulu, nikhuleke kubo,

Nokho wonke umbuso angiyikuwuhlwitha , kepha ngiyakunika indodana yakho isizwe sibe sinye ngenxa kaDavide inceku yami nangenxa yeJerusalema engilikhethileyo. UNkulunkulu umvusela uSolomoni izitha

kodwa yena uyakuba nesizwe sibe sinye ngenxa yenceku yami uDavide nangenxa yeJerusalema , umuzi engiwukhethileyo ezizweni zonke zakwa - Israyeli

Nokho angiyikususa wonke umbuso esandleni sakhe, kepha ngiyakumenza abe yisikhulu zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakhe ngenxa kaDavide inceku yami engamkhethayo, owagcina imiyalo yami nezimiso zami;

Indodana yakhe ngiyakuyinika isizwe sibe sinye , ukuze uDavide inceku yami abe nesibani izinsuku zonke phambi kwami eJerusalema , umuzi engiwukhethileyo ukuba ngibeke khona igama lami.

Kuyakuthi uma ulalela konke engikuyala ngakho, uhambe ngezindlela zami, wenze okulungile emehlweni ami ukugcina izimiso zami nemiyalo yami njengalokho akwenza uDavide inceku yami , ngiyakuba nawe , ngikwakhele indlu eyiyo njengalokho ngamakhela uDavide, ngikunike u-Israyeli.

ngawuhlwitha umbuso endlini kaDavide , ngawunika wena , kepha awubanga njen genceku yami uDavide owagcina imiyalo yami nowangilandela ngayo yonke inhliziyo yakhe ukwenza okulungile emehlweni ami kuphela,

Kepha wathi : Kuphila kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho , anginalo neqebelengwane, kukhona kuphela ukhweshe lwempuphu embizeni nengcosana yamafutha ophisweni ; bheka, sengicakashile izinkuni ezimbili , ukuze ngingene ngizilungiselele khona nendodana yami ukuba sikudle, sife.

Wayesethi ku-Eliya: Nginamsebenzi muni nawe muntu kaNkulunkulu na ? Uze kimi ukuba kukhumbuleke isono sami nokuba kubulawe indodana yami.

U-Obadiya esendleleni, bheka, kwahlangana naye u -Eliya, wambona, wawa ngobuso, wathi: Wena uyinkosi yami u-Eliya na?

Kuphila kukaJehova , uNkulunkulu wakho , akukho sizwe nambuso lapho inkosi yami ingathumanga khona ukukufuna , nanxa bethi akakho lapha , yafungisa umbuso nesizwe ukuthi abakufumananga.

Inkosi yami ayitshelwanga yini lokho engakwenzayo lapho u-Izebeli ebulala abaprofethi bakaJehova , ukuthi ngafihla abantu abayikhulu kubaprofethi bakaJehova ngamashumi ayisihlanu emhumeni , ngabondla ngesinkwa nangamanzi, na?

Inkosi yakwa-Israyeli yaphendula yathi: Kunjengokusho kwakho, nkosi yami, nkosi: Ngingowakho nakho konke enginakho.

Wayesethi kuzo izithunywa zikaBeni Hadadi: Yitsheleni inkosi yami, inkosi, ukuthi: Konke owathumela ngakho encekwini yakho kuqala ngiyakukwenza , kepha le nto anginakuyenza. Zase zihamba izithunywa, zambuyisela izwi.

U-Ahabi wakhuluma kuNaboti , wathi: Ngiphe isivini sakho ukuba sibe yisivande sami semifino , ngokuba siseduze nendlu yami , ngikunike isivini esihle kunaso esikhundleni saso ; kepha uma kukuhle emehlweni akho , ngiyakukunika isiliva libe yintengo yaso.

Kwakhala ku-Elisha owesifazane othile wabafazi bamadodana abaprofethi, wathi: Inceku yakho , indoda yami , ifile; wena uyazi ukuthi incek u yakho yayimesaba uJehova ; sekufike umtshelekisi ukuzithathela abafana bami ababili babe yizigqila.

Wayesethi: Ngake ngacela yini indodana enkosini yami na? Angishongo yini ukuthi: Ungangikhohlisi, na?

Yathi enkosikazini yayo : Sengathi inkosi yami ingaba phambi komprofethi oseSamariya; khona ibiyakuphiliswa ochokweni lwayo.

Waletha incwadi enkosini yakwa-Israyeli, ethi: Manje, lapho le ncwadi ifika kuwe, bheka, ngithumile u Nahamani inceku yami kuwe ukuba umphilise ochokweni lwakhe.

Kule nto uJeho va makayithethelele inceku yakho : ekungeneni kwenkosi yami endlini kaRimoni uk ukhuleka khona, isencika esandleni sami , ngiguqe nami endlini kaRimoni , lapho ngiguqa endlini kaRimoni , uJehova makayithethelele inceku yakho le nto.

Kepha uGehazi inceku ka-Elisha umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathi: Bheka, inkosi yami imyekile uNahamani lo wase -Aramu ngokungamukeli ezandleni zakhe akulethayo; kuphila kukaJehova, ngiyakugijima, ngimlandele, ngithathe into kuye.

Wathi: Sisahlezi kahle . Inkosi yami ingithumile ngokuthi : Bheka, manje kufike kimi izinsizwa ezimbili zamadodana abaprofethi zivela ezintabeni zakwa-Efrayimi; ake uzinike italenta lesiliva nezingubo ezimbili zokuphendulela.

Wayesethi: Ayiyanga yini inhliziyo yami , lapho lowo muntu ephenduka enqoleni yakhe ukukuhlangabeza, na? Sekuyisikhathi sokwamukela izingubo, neminqumo, nezivini, nezimvu, nezinkabi, nezinceku, nezincekukazi, na?

Enye yezinceku zayo yathi : Hhayi, nkosi yami , nkosi, kodwa u -Elisha, umprofethi wakwa -Israyeli, uyayitshela inkosi yakwa -Israyeli amazwi owakhulumayo ekamelweni lakho lokulala.

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

Yayisithi inkosi kuye : Unani na? Wathi: Lo wesifazane wathi kimi : Letha indodana yakho ukuba siyidle namuhla, sidle indodana yami kusasa.

Sase siyipheka indodana yami , sayidla; ngase ngithi kuye ngosuku olulandelayo: Letha indodana yakho ukuba siyidle ; wayeseyifihlile indodana yakhe.

Kwathi esayilandisa inkosi ukuthi uvusile ofileyo , bheka, owesifazane ondodana yakhe ayivusileyo wakhala enkosini ngendlu yakhe nangezwe lakhe. Wayesethi uGehazi: Nkosi yami, nkosi, yilo owesifazane, yile indodana yakhe u-Elisha ayivusileyo.

UHazayeli wathi: Inkosi yami ikhalelani na? Yathi: Ngokuba ngiyazi okubi oyakukwenza kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli; uyakuthungela izinqaba zabo ngomlilo, ubulale izinsizwa zabo ngenkemba, uphahlaze izingane zabo, uqaqe abesifazane babo abakhulelweyo.

Kwathi ekuseni waphuma , wema, wathi kubantu bonke : Nina nilungile ; bhekani, mina ngenzele inkosi yami ugob e, ngayibulala, kepha ngubani ogence bonke laba na?

Esesukile khona wafumana uJehonadaba indodana kaRekabi eza ukumhlangabeza; wambingelela, wathi kuye : Inhliziyo yakho ilungelene nenhliziyo yami njengeyami ilungelene neyakho na ? Wathi uJehonadaba: Yebo. Wathi uJehu: Uma kunjalo , nginike isandla sakho . Wamnika isandla sakhe, wamkhwelisa enqoleni yakhe.

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

UJehowashi inkosi yakwa -Israyeli wathumel a ku -Amasiya inkosi yakwaJuda, wathi: Isihlahla somkhaya saseLebanoni sathumela kumsedari waseLebanoni, sathi: Nika indodana yami indodakazi yakho ibe ngumkayo . Kwadlula isilo sasendle saseLebanoni, sanyathela phansi isihlahla somkhaya.

Nokho uJehova wayexwayisile o -Israyeli noJuda ngesandla sabo bonke abaprofethi nababoni ukuthi : Phendukani ezindleleni zenu ezimbi , nigcine imiyalo yami nezimiso zami njengawo wonke umth etho engayala ngawo oyihlo nengawuthuma kini ngesandla sezinceku zami abaprofethi.

Ngalokho ake uvumelane nenkosi yami, inkosi yase-Asiriya, ngiyakukunika amahhashi ayizinkulungwane ezimbili, uma ungabeka izinkweli kuwo.

Pho, ungaphindisela emuva kanjani nenduna eyodwa ezincekwini ezincane zenkosi yami na ? Nokho wethemba iGibithe ukuthola khona izinqola nabamahhashi.

Kepha uRabi Shake wathi kubo : Inkosi yami ingithumile yini enkosini yakho nakuwena ukukhuluma lawa mazwi na ? Hhayi kulaba bantu yini abahlezi ogangeni ukuba badle amasimba abo , baphuze umshobingo wabo kanye nani, na?

Ngenxa yokubhovumula kwakho ngami , nangokuba ukuzidla kwakho kwenyukele ezindlebeni zami, ngiyakubeka ingwegwe yami emakhaleni akho netomu lami emlonyeni wakho, ngikubuyise ngendlela oweza ngayo.

Ngiyakuwuvikela lo muzi ukuba ngiwusindis e ngenxa yami nangenxa yenceku yami uDavide.

Ngiyakwenezela ezinsukwini za kho iminyaka eyishumi nanhlanu , ngikophule wena nalo muzi esandleni senkosi yase -Asiriya; ngiyakuwuvikela lo muzi ngenxa yami nangenxa yenceku yami uDavide.

Wayesethi: Baboneni endlini yakho na ? UHezekiya wathi : Babone konke okusendlini yami; akukho nto phakathi kwengcebo yami engingababonisanga yona.

Wayesethi uHezekiya ku-Isaya: Lihle izwi likaJehova olikhulumileyo. Wathi futhi: Akunjalo, uma kuyakuba khona ukuthula nokulondeka emihleni yami , na?

futhi angisayikuzulisa izinyawo zika-Israyeli, zisuke ezweni engalinika oyise, uma beyakugcina kuphela ukwenza njengakho konke engibayale ngakho nanjengawo wonke umthetho eyabayala ngawo inceku yami uMose.

ngokuba bangishiyile , bashisela abanye onkulunkulu impepho baze bangicunula ngawo wonke umsebenzi wezandla zabo ; intukuthelo yami iyakuvuthela le ndawo, ayiyikucinywa.

UDavide waphuma ukubahlangabeza , wathatha, wathi kubo : Uma nize nokuthula kimi ukungisiza, inhliziyo yami iyakuba nye nani , kepha uma kungukungikhohlisa ezitheni zami , lokhu kungekho okubi ezandleni zami , uNkulunkulu wawobaba makakubheke, akujezise.

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

Ngalokho uyakusho kanje encekwini yami uDavide , uthi: U sho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uthi: Mina ngakuthatha edlelweni ekwaluseni izimvu ukuba ube ngumbusi wabantu bami u-Israyeli;

Mina ngiyakuba nguyise , yona ibe yindodana yami ; angiyikuyaphuca umusa wami, njengalokho ngamaphuca owayephambi kwakho.

Ngiyakuyiqinisa endlini yami nasembusweni wami kuze kube phakade , isihlalo sayo sobukhosi siqiniswe kuze kube phakade.

UDavide ink osi wayesengena , wahlala phambi kukaJehova , wathi: Ngingubani, Jehova Nkulunkulu , nendlu yami iyini ukuba ungilethe kuze kube lapha na?

UJowabe wathi: UJehova makenezele kubantu bakhe, kuphindwe kayikhulu phezu kwalokhu abayikho; kepha, nkosi yami, nkosi, abasizo izinceku zenkosi yami bonke na ? Inkosi yami ifunelani le nto na ? Iyakuba yicala ngani ku - Israyeli na?

U-Orinani wathi kuDavide : Zithathele yona; inkosi yami, inkosi, mayenze okuhle emehlweni ayo ; bheka, ngiyakupha izinkabi zibe ngezeminikelo yokushiswa, nezibhulo zibe yizinkuni , nokolweni abe ngumnikelo wempuphu; ngikunika konke.

UDavide wathi: USolomoni in dodana yami usengumfana , usathambile, nendlu eyakwakhelwa uJehova nga iba nkulu , ibatshazwe, ibe negama nodumo emazweni onke ; ngizakuyilungisela. Wayeseyilungisela kakhulu uDavide engakafi.

UDavide wathi kuSolomoni indodana yakhe : Mina-ke, kwakusenhliziyweni yami ukwakhela igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu wami indlu.

uyakwakhela igama lami indlu ; uyakuba yindodana yami , mina ngibe nguyise; ngiyakuqinisa isihlalo sobukhosi sombuso wakhe kwa -Israyeli kuze kube phakade.

Kalokhu, ndodana yami, uJehova makabe nawe, ube nempumelelo, wakhe indlu kaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho njengokukhuluma kwakhe kuwe.

Ngavuka ukumvulela othandiweyo wami ; izandla zami zaconsa imure , neminwe yami imure elimanzi phezu kwezibambo zesihluthulelo.

Abalindi bangifuman a behambahamba emzini , bangishaya, bangilimaza; abalindi bezingange bangaphuca imvakazi yami. Ukuphendulana komyeni nomakoti

Ngingakakwazi ukulangazela kwami kwangibek a enqoleni yabantu benkosana yami. Abangane:

UDavide inkosi wayesema ngezinyawo , wathi: Ngizweni, bafowethu nabantu bakwethu : mina-ke, kwakusenhliziyweni yami ukwakhela umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova indlu yokuphumula neyesena belo sikaNkulunkulu wethu; ngangizilungiselele ukwakha.

nasemadodaneni ami onke , ngokuba uJehova ungiphe amadoda na amaningi, ukhethe uSo lomoni indodana yami ukuba ahlale esihlalweni sobukhosi sombuso kaJehova kwa-Israyeli.

Wathi kimi : U Solomoni indodana yakho nguye oyakwakha indlu yami namagceke ami , ngokuba ngimkhethile ukuba abe yindodana yami , mina ngibe nguyise.

Ngiyakuqinisa umbuso wakhe kuze kube phakade , uma eqinisela ukwenza imiyalo yami nezahlulelo zami njenganamuhla.

Wena Solomoni , ndodana yami , yazi uNkulunkulu kayihlo , umkhonze ngenhliziyo epheleleyo nangenhliziyo ethokozayo , ngokuba uJehova uhlola izinhliziyo zonke , uqonda zonke izizindlo zemicabango ; uma umfuna , uyakufunyanwa nguye ; kepha uma umshiya , uyakukulahla kuze kube phakade.

UDavide inkosi wathi kulo lonke ibandla : USolomoni indodana yami , oyedwa uNkulunkulu amkhethileyo , usengumfana, usathambile, nomsebenzi mkhulu, ngokuba ithempeli alisilo elomuntu kepha ngelikaJehova uNkulunkulu.

Ngiyazi, Nkulunkulu wami , ukuthi uhlola inhliziyo , uthanda ubuqotho . Mina-ke ngobuqotho benhliziyo yami nginikele ngokuthokoza zonke lezi zinto, futhi sengibonile ngokujabula abantu bakho abakhona lapha ukuthi nabo banikele kuwe ngokuthokoza.

unike uSolomoni indodana yami inhliziyo epheleleyo ukuba agcine imiyalo yakho, nobufakazi bakho, nezimiso zakho, nokwenza konke lokhu, nokwakha ithempeli engililungiseleyo.

indodana yowesifazane wamadodakazi akwaDani ; uyise wayengumuntu waseTire, owayekwazi ukusebenza ngegolide , nangesiliva, nangethusi, nangensimbi, nangamatshe, nangemithi, nangokububende, nangokuluhlaza, nangelineni elicolekileyo , nangokubomvu, nangokuqopha imiqopho yonke , nangokuqamba yonke imisebenzi yobungcweti , ukuba anikwe indawo kanye nezingcweti zakho nezingcweti zenkosi yami uDavide uyihlo.

Ngalokho ukolweni, nebhali, namafutha, newayini, inkosi yami ekhulume ngakho, mayikuthume kuzo izinceku zayo.

Ngase ngiphenduka ukuba inhliziyo yami yazi , ihlole, ifune ukuhlakanipha nendikimba yezindab a ukuyokwazi ububi ukuthi bungubuwula , nobuwula ukuthi bungubuhlanya.

Manje sengiyikhethile ngayingcwelisa le ndlu ukuba igama lami libe khona lapho kuze kube phakade ; amehlo ami nenhliziyo yami kuyakuba khona lapho isikhathi sonke.

Kepha uma nibuya , nishiye izimiso zami nemiyalo yami engikubeke phambi kwakho, nihambe nikhonze abanye onkulunkulu, nikhuleke kubo,

Lapha uJehova ebona ukuthi bayazithoba , kweza izwi likaJehova kuShemaya, lathi: Bazithobile; angiyikubachitha, kepha ngiyakubakhulula emva kwesikhashana , nentukuthelo yami ayiyikuthululelwa phezu kweJerusalema ngesandla sikaShishaki.

Nokho bayakuba yizinceku zakhe ukuba bazi inkonzo yami nenkonzo yemibuso yezizwe. UShishaki usukela iJerusalema

Kuyakuthi ngalolo suku, usho uJehova, ungibize ngokuthi: YiNdoda yami, ungasangibizi ngokuthi: NguBali wami.

UJowashi, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, wathumela ku-Amasiya inkosi yakwaJuda, wathi: Isihlahla somkhaya saseLebanoni sathumela kumsedari waseLebanoni, sathi: Nika indodana yami indodakazi yakho ibe ngu mkayo. Kwadlula isilo sasendle saseLebanoni, sanyathela phansi isihlahla somkhaya.

Manje sekusenhliziyweni yami ukwenza isivumelwano noJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ukuba ulaka lwakhe oluvuthayo lubuye kithina.

Izikhulu zakwaJuda zinjengabasusa imincele; ngiyakuthulula phezu kwazo intukuthelo yami njengamanzi.

ngokuba bangishiyile, bashisela abanye onkulunkulu impepho baze bangicunula ngayo yonke imisebenzi yezandla zabo ; intukuthelo yami isithululelwe kule ndawo, ayiyikucinywa.

Ngiyakuhamba, ngibuyele endaweni yami , baze bazithwese icala labo , bafune ubuso bami; osizini lwabo bayakungifunisisa.

Ithole lakho , Samariya, linengekile; intukuthelo yami iyabavuthela ; koze kube nini bengakwazi ukuba msulwa na?

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

Lapho ngibeka inhliziyo yami uku kwazi ukuhlakanipha nokubona umshikashika owenziwa emhlabeni , ngokuba akakho obona ubuthongo ngamehlo akhe imini nobusuku,

Ngokuba konke lokho ngakubeka enhliziyweni yami ukuhlola konke lokho ukuthi abalungileyo nabahlakaniphileyo nemisebenzi yabo kusesandleni sikaNkulunkulu; noma kulu thando noma kuyinzondo , akukho muntu okwaziyo; konke kusebusweni babo.

Ngikunike inkosi ngentukuthelo yami, ngayisusa ngolaka lwami.

Ngiyakuphulukisa ukuhlehla kwabo , ngibathande ngesihle , ngokuba intukuthelo yami ibuyile kubo.

Bethani icilongo eSiyoni , nihlabe umkhosi entabeni yami engcwele; mabathuthumele bonke abakhe ezweni , ngokuba luyeza usuku lukaJehova , ngokuba lusondele;

Inhliziyo yami ikhalela uMowabi ; ababalekileyo bakhe bayabalekela eSora , nase Egila Shelishiya; yebo, nasegqumeni laseLuhithe bakhuphukela bekhala, nasendleleni eya eHoronayimi, bephakamisa izwi lokudazuluka.

Lapho ngizwa leyo ndaba, ngaklebhula ingubo yami nejazi lami, ngahluthula izinwele zekhanda lami nesilevu sami, ngahlala phansi ngimangele.

Ngesikhathi somnikelo wakusihlwa ngavuka ekuzileni kwami , ingubo yami nejazi lami kuklebhukile , ngaguqa ngamadolo , ngelulela izandla zami kuJehova uNkulunkulu wami,

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

Ngavuka ebusuku , mina nabantu abathile abayingcosana ; angitshelanga muntu lokho uNkulunkulu akubeke enhliziyweni yami ukuba ngikwenzele iJerusalema; futhi kwakungekho silwane nami ngaphandle kwesilwane engangikhwele kuso.

Inhliziyo yami isicabangile , ngathethisana nabakhulu nababusi , ngathi kubo: Nina nonke nibiza inzalo omunye komunye . Ngase ngibiza ibandla elikhulu ngabo.

Ngavuthulula ingubo yami , ngathi: UNkulunkulu makavuthulule kanjalo bonke abantu abangagcini leli zwi ezindlini zabo nasemfuyweni yabo ; mabavuthululwe kanjalo , babe yize . Lonke ibandla lathi : Amen, ladumisa uJehova. Abantu base benza njengalelo zwi.

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

Wayesethi uJehova kuSathane : Inhliziyo yakho iyiqaphele inceku yami uJobe na ? Ngokuba akakho onjengaye emhlabeni , umuntu on genasici nolungileyo, omesaba uNkulunkulu, obalekela okubi.

Wayesethi uJehova kuSathane : Inhliziyo yakho iyiqaphele inceku yami uJobe na ? Ngokuba akakho onjengaye emhlabeni , umuntu ongenasici nolungileyo, omesaba uNkulunkulu , obalekela okubi ; usabambelela ekupheleleni kwakhe, noma ungivusele ukumchitha engenacala.

Kwanyenyiselwa kimi izwi, indlebe yami yabamba ukunyenyezwa kwalo.

Kodwa mina bengiyakumfuna uNkulunkulu; kuNkulunkulu bengiyakubeka indaba yami,

Sengathi ukuncokolozwa kwam i ngabe kulinganiswe nokulinganiswa , inhlupheko yami ibekwe esilinganisweni kanyekanye.

Lokho ngakube kuhlale kube yinduduzo yami , yebo, ngabe ngijabule ebuhlungwini obungahawukeliyo ukuthi angigodlanga amazwi oNgcwele.

Pho, amandla ami angamandla amatshe yini? Inyama yami iyithusi na?

Ake niphenduke , kungabikho ukungalungi , nibuye niphenduke; indaba yami ilungile.

Imihla yami iyashesha kunesigijimi; iyabaleka ingabonanga okuhle.

Imihla yami ayiyingcosana na ? Makapheze, angiyeke ukuba ngithokoze kancane,

Amathambo ami anamathel a esikhumbeni sami nasenyameni yami ; ngisinde ngokulambisa kuphela.

Ningizingelelani njengoNkulunkulu, ningasuthi ngenyama yami na?

Nalapho sesishabalele isikhumba sami , ngiyakumbuka uNkulunkulu ngikhululekile enyameni yami,

Ngalokho imicabango yami iyangiphendul a ngenxa yokushesha okuphakathi kwami.

Ngokuba uyayazi indlela yami ; esengivivinyile, ngiyakuphuma njengegolide.

NguNkulunkulu odangalisileyo inhliziyo yami, uSomandla ungethusile,

Ngibambelela ekulungeni kwami , angikuyeki; inhliziyo yami ayisoli nowodwa wemihla yami.

Ngokuba kungumlilo odlayo kuze kube sekubhujisweni , kusishulwe yonke inzuzo yami.

Uma ngidelele ukwahlulelwa kwenceku yam i noma okwencekukazi yami , lapho bephikisana nami,

Nokho ngibekile iNkosi yami eSiyoni, intaba yami engcwele.

Yizwa izwi lokukhala kwami , Nkosi yami , Nkulunkulu wami , ngokuba ngithandaza kuwe.

Koze kube nin i ngikhathazeka emphefumulweni wami , nginosizi enhliziyweni yami usuku lonke, na? Koze kube nini isitha sami siziphakamisa phezu kwami na?

Kepha ngiwuthembile umusa wakho ; inhliziyo yami izakwethaba ngensindiso yakho;

Ngithi kuJehova : Wena uyiNkosi yami ; anginakho okuhle ngaphandle kwakho.

Abangcwele abasemhlabeni, abayizikhulu, yonke intokozo yami ikubona.

Ngakho-ke inhliziyo yami iyajabula , nomphefumulo wami uyethaba , nenyama yami iyakuhlala ngokwethemba.

Ngihambise eqinisweni lakho , ungifundise, ngokuba wena unguNkulunkulu wensindiso yami; ngilindela wena usuku lonke.

Izinsizi zenhliziyo yami zikhulile; ngikhiphe ezinhluphekweni zami.

UJehova ungukukhanya kwami nensindiso yami ; ngizakwesaba bani na ? UJehova uyinqaba yokuphila kwami; ngizakuba novalo ngobani na?

Noma impi imisa ngakimi , inhliziyo yami ayesabi ; noma ngivukelwa ngukulwa, nokho nginethemba.

Kuwena othi: Funani ubuso bami, inhliziyo yami ithi: Ubuso bakho, Jehova, ngiyabufuna.

Ungafihli ubuso bakho kimi , ungaxoshi inceku yakho ngokuthukuthela ; wena ulusizo lwami , ungangilahli, ungangishiyi, Nkulunkulu wensindiso yami.

Mina uqobo ngibayalile abangcwele bami , yebo, ngibizele amaqhawe ami okwentukuthelo yami, bona labo abami abajabula ngokuziqhenya.

Ngalokho inhliziyo yami iyakhala njengehabhu ngoMowabi, nokuphakathi kwami ngeKhiri Heresi.

Ngokuba uJehova ushilo kimi kanje , wathi: Ngiyakubheka ngithule , ngisendaweni yami , njengokubalela okukhazimula ekukh anyeni kwelanga , njengefu lamazolo ekufudumaleni ngesikhathi sokuvuna.

UJehova wathi : Njengalokhu inceku yami u -Isaya isihambe ze ingafakile nazicathulo iminyaka emithathu , iyisibonakaliso nesimangaliso eGibithe naseKushe,

Obonayo wayesememeza, wathi: Nkosi yami , ngimi njalo emini embhoshongweni wami, ngihlezi ngisemlindelweni nasebusuku bonke.

Kuyakuthi ngalolo suk u ngiyibize inceku yami u -Eliyakimi indodana kaHilikiya;

Ngokuba i nkemba yami izanelisile ngegazi ezulwini ; bheka, iyakwehlela phezu kuka-Edomi naphezu kwabantu besiqalekiso sami ukuba ibahlulele.

Ngalokho ake uvumelane nenkosi yami , inkosi yase-Asiriya, ngiyakukunika amahhashi ayizinkulungwane ezimbili, uma ungabeka izinkweli kuzo.

Pho, ungaphindisela emuva kanjani ne nduna eyodwa ezincekwini ezincane zenkosi yami na ? Nokho wethemba iGibithe ukuthola khona izinqola nabamahhashi.

Kepha uRabi Shake wathi : Inkosi yami ingithumile yini enkosini yakho nakuwena ukukhuluma lawamazwi na ? Hhayi kulaba bantu yini abahlezi ogangeni ukuba badle amasimba abo, baphuze umshobingo wabo kanye nani, na?

Ngenxa yokubhovumula kwakho ngami , nangokuba ukuzidla kwakh o kwenyukele ezindlebeni zami, ngiyakufaka ingwegwe yami emakhaleni akh o netomu lami emlonyeni wakho, ngikubuyise ngendlela oweza ngayo.

Ngiyakuwuvikela lo muzi ukuba ngiwusindise ngenxa yami nangenxa yenceku yami uDavide.

Ngathi: Ngiphakathi nezinsuku zam i ngiyakungena emasangweni endawo yabafileyo, ngaphuciwe inxenye yeminyaka yami.

Wayesethi: Baboneni endlini yakho na ? UHezekiya wathi : Babone konke okusendlini yami; akukho nto phakathi kwengcebo yami engingababonisanga yona.

Wayesethi uHezekiya ku-Isaya: Lihle izwi likaJehova olikhulumileyo . Wathi futhi: Ngokuba kuyakuba khona ukuthula nokulondeka emihleni yami.

Usholoni wena Jako be, ukhulumelani wena Israyeli , ukuthi: Indlela yami isithekile kuJehova, ilungelo lami lidlulile kuNkulunkulu wami, na?

Kepha wena Israyeli, nceku yami, wena Jakobe engikukhethileyo, nzalo ka- Abrahama othandiweyo wami,

wena engikuthathile emikhawulweni yomhlaba , ngakubiza emagumbini awo, ngathi kuwe: Wena uyinceku yami, ngikukhethile, angikulahlanga;

Bheka inceku yami engiyisekelayo , okhethiweyo wami othokoza ngay e umphefumulo wami; nginikele umoya wami phezu kwakhe , uyakukhiphela izizwe ukwahlulela.

Ngubani oyimpum puthe ngaphandle kwenceku yami , nesithulu njengesithunywa sami engisithumayo , na? Ngubani oyimpumputhe njengopheleleyo, oyimpumputhe njengenceku kaJehova, na?

onke abizwe ngegama lami , nengiwadalele inkazimulo yami , engiwabumbile nengiwenzile.

Ningofakazi bami , usho uJehova , nenceku yami engiyikhethiley o ukuba nazi, ningethembe, niqonde ukuthi nginguye ; ngaphambi kwami akwenziwanga uNkulunkulu, nangasemva kwami akayikuba khona.

Mina, mina nginguy e owesula iziphambeko zakho ngenxa yami ; angiyikukhumbula izono zakho.

Kepha yizwa manje, Jakobe, nceku yami, wena Israyeli engikukhethileyo.

Usho kanje uJehova owakudalayo , wakubumba kwasesiwini, oyakukusiza, uthi: Ungesabi, Jakobe, nceku yami, wena Jeshuruni engikukhethileyo.

Khumbula lezi zinto , Jakobe, wena Israyeli , ngokuba uyinceku yami ; ngikubumbile, uyinceku yami; Israyeli, angiyikukhohlwa.

oshoyo ngoKoresi ukuthi: Ungumalusi wami, uyakufeza konke okwentando yami, athi ngeJerusalema: Liyakwakhiwa, nakulo ithempeli: Isisekelo sakho siyakubekwa.

engimemezela ngaphambili okuyakuza , nasendulo izinto ezingakenziwa, ngokuthi: Icebo lami liyakuma, ngiyakwenza yonke intando yami,

Ngenxa yenceku yami uJakobe , u-Israyeli okhethiweyo wami, ngikubizile ngegama lakho, ngikunikile igama lodumo, ungakangazi.

Sengathi nga ulalele imiyalo yami ! Khona ukuthula kwakho kwakuyakuba njengomfula, nokulunga kwakho njengamaza olwandle;

Wathi kimi: Uyinceku yami, u-Israyeli, engiyakuzidumisa kuye.

yebo, uthi: Kuyinto elula ukuba ube yinceku yam i ukuvusa izi zwe zakwaJakobe, nokubuyisa abaseleyo bakwa-Israyeli; ngalokho ngiyakukubeka ube ngukukhany a kwabezizwe , ube yinsindiso yami kuze kube semkhawulweni womhlaba.

Ngiyakuzenza zonke izintaba zami zibe yizindlela, imendo yami iphakame.

INkosi uJehova inginikile ulimi l wabafundi ukuba ngazi ukuvuselela oyethileyo ngamazwi ahlumelelayo; ivusa njalo indlebe yami ekuseni imihla ngemihla ukuba ngizwe njengabafundi.

INkosi uJehova iyivulile indlebe yami, mina angihlubukanga, angihlehlanga nyovane.

Ukulunga kwami kuseduze , insindiso yami iphumile , izingalo zami ziyakubahlulela abantu; iziqhingi ziyangihlalela, zilindela umkhono wami.

Phakamiselani amehlo enu ezulwini , niwubheke umhlaba phansi , ngokuba izulu liyakunyamalala njengomusi, umhlaba uguge njengengubo, nabakhileyo kuwo bafe njengezinsensane, kepha insindiso yami iyakum a kuze kube phakade, nokulunga kwami akuyikuphela.

Ngokuba inundu iyakubadla njengengubo , nebhu libadle njengoboya bezimvu, kodwa ukulunga kwami kuyakuma kuze kube phakade , nensindiso yami ezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwane.

Bheka, inceku yami iyakuphumelela kahle ; iyakukhuliswa, iphakanyiswe, iphakame kakhulu.

Ngokuhlupheka komphefumulo way o iyakukubona, yaneliswe. Ngokwazi kwayo inceku yami, elungileyo, iyakulungisisa abaningi, ithwale izono zabo.

Ngokuba imicabango yami ayisiyo imicabango yenu, nezindlela zenu azisizo izindlela zami, usho uJehova.

Ngokuba njengamazulu ephakeme kunomhlaba , kanjalo izindlela zami ziphakeme kunezindlela zenu, nemicabango yami kunemicabango yenu.

Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Gcinani ukwahlulela, nenze ukulunga, ngokuba insindiso yami iseduze ukuba ifike, nokulunga kwami ukuba kwambulwe.

yebo, nabo ngiyakubayisa entabeni yami engcwele , ngibathokozise endlini yami yokukhuleka ; iminikelo yabo yokushiswa nemihlatshelo yab o iyakwamukeleka e -altare lami , ngokuba indlu yami iyakubizwa ngokuth i indlu yokukhuleka phakathi kwabantu bonke.

Ekukhaleni kwakho izixuku zezithombe zakho mazikop hule, kepha umoya uzakuzisusa zonke, ukuphefumula kuzithathe; kodwa othemba kimi uzakudla ifa lezwe, adle nefa lentaba yami engcwele.

Abezizwe bayakuzakha izingange zakho , amakhosi abo akukhonze ; noma ngakushaya ngentukuthelo yami, sengiyakuhawukela ngomusa wami.

Awusayikuthiwa Oshiyiweyo , nezwe lakini alisayikuthiwa iNcithakalo , kepha uyakubizwa ngokuthi Ontokozo yami ikuye , nezwe lakini ngokuthi Oganileyo, ngokuba uJehova uyathokoza ngawe, nezwe lakini lendile.

kodwa abawaqoqileyo bayakuwadla , bamdumise uJehova , nabaliqoqileyo bayakuliphuza emagcekeni endlu yami engcwele.

Isikhamo sewayini ngisinyathele ngingedwa; kwakungekho nami noyedwa kubantu; ngabanyathela ngentukuthelo yami , ngabaciphiza ngokufutheka kwami, negazi labo lasaphazeka ezingutsheni zami , ngazingcolisa zonke izambatho zami.

Ngabheka, kepha kwakungekho osizayo ; ngamangala, kepha kwakungekho osekelayo; yayisingisindisa ingalo yami, nokufutheka kwami kwangisekela.

Ngase nginyathela abantu ngentukuthelo yami, ngabachoboza ngokufutheka kwami, ngathululela phansi igazi labo.

Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Njengalokhu iwayini litholwa ehlukuzweni , bese kuthiwa: M alingachithwa, ngokuba isibusiso sikulo , kanjalo ngiyakwenza ngenxa yenceku yami: angiyikubabulala bonke.

Kepha nina enimshiya uJehova, nikhohlwe intaba yami engcwele, nihlelele iNhlanhla itafula, nigcwalisele isiMiselo iwayini elixutshanisiweyo,

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

Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Izulu liyisihlalo sami sobukhosi , umhlaba uyisenabelo sezinyawo zami ; iphi leyo ndlu ebeniyakungakhela yona , iphi indawo yami yokuphumula, na?

Ngiyazi imisebenzi yabo nemicabango yabo ; ngiyeza ukubutha zonke izizwe nezilimi, zifike, zibone inkazimulo yami.

Ngiyakubeka isibonakaliso phakathi kwazo , ngithume ababalekileyo babo kwabezizwe, eTharishishi, nasePhuli, naseLudi, abagoba umnsalo , nakuThubali naseJavani, eziqhingini ezikude, ezingezwanga umbiko ngami , zingabonanga inkazimulo yami, baze balande ngenkazimulo yami ezizweni.

Bayakuletha bonke a bafowenu bebakhipha ezizweni zonke ngamahhashi, nangezinqola, nangezinhlaka, nangeminyuzi, nangamakamela, babe ngumnikelo kaJehova , beze entabeni yami engcwele eJerusalema , usho uJehova, njengalokhu abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bewuletha umnikelo wabo ngesitsha esihlambulukileyo endlini kaJehova.

Alunakududuzeka kimi usizi oluphezu kwami, inhliziyo yami idangele.

ngininike abelusi ngokwenhliziyo yami , abayakunalusa ngokwazi nangokuhlakanipha.

Zibilini zami , zibilini zami , nginobuhlungu enhliziyweni yami ; inhliziyo yami ikhala phakathi kwami , anginakuthula, ngokuba ulizwile, mphefumulo wami, izwi lecilongo, ukuhlatshwa komkhosi wempi.

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

Ngalokho isho njalo iNkosi uNkulunkulu , ithi: Bheka, intukuthelo yami nokufutheka kwami kuyakuthululwa kule ndawo phezu kwabantu , naphezu kwezinkomo, naphezu kwemithi yasendle , naphezu kwezithelo zomhlaba , kuvuthe kungacimi.

Bakhile izindawo eziphakemeyo zaseThofeti ezisesigodini sendodana kaHinomu ukuba bashise amadodana abo namadodakazi ab o ngomlilo , engingakuyalelanga nokungangenanga enhliziyweni yami.

Othandiweyo wami unani endlini yami lapho enza amacebo nabaningi na? Inyama engcwele ingavela kuwe, lokhu ujabula ngokwenza okubi, na?

Jehova Sebawoti , mahluleli olungileyo , ovivinya izinso nenhliziyo , mangibone ukuphindisela kwakho kubo , ngokuba n gibonakalisile indaba yami kuwe.

Ngiyishiyile indlu yami , ngililahlile ifa lami , nginikele othandiweyo womphefumulo wami esandleni sezitha zakhe.

Wayesethi uJehova kimi: Noma bekumi phambi kwami oMose noSamuweli, inhliziyo yami ibingebe kulaba bantu; balahle ebusweni bami, baphume.

Amazwi akho afunyanwa , ngawadla; amazwi akho aba ngukujabula kim i nokuthokoza kwenhliziyo yami , ngokuba ngibizwa ngegama lakho , Jehova Nkulunkulu Sebawoti.

Intaba yami yasendle , impahla yakho nengcebo yakho yonke ngiyakukunikela kube yimpango kanye nezindawo zakho eziphakemeyo ngenxa yezono emikhawulweni yakho yonke.

bakha izindawo eziphakemeyo zikaBali ukushisa amadodana abo ngomli lo, abe yiminikelo yokushiswa kuBali , engingakuyalanga, nengingakukhulumanga, nokungangenanga enhliziyweni yami,

Lapho ngithi : Angisayikumkhumbula, ngingasakhulumi egameni lakhe, kusenhliziyweni yami njengomlilo oshisayo , uvalelwe emathanjeni ami ; ngikhathele ukubekezela, angikwazi.

Kepha, Jehova Sebawoti , ovivinya olungileyo , obona izinso nenhliziyo , mangibone ukuphindisela kwakho kubo , ngokuba ngikwambulele indaba yami.

Ngabaprofethi. Inhliziyo yami yaphukile phakathi kwami , amathambo onke ami ayathuthumela ; nginjengomuntu odakiweyo , njengomuntu owahlulwe yiwayini ngenxa kaJehova nangenxa yamazwi akhe angcwele.

bheka, ngiyakuthumela, ngilande yonke imindeni yasenyakatho , usho uJehova, noNebukadinesari, inkosi yaseBabele , inceku yami , ngibehlisele phezu kwaleli zwe nabakhileyo kulo , naphezu kwazo zonke lezi zizwe nxazonke, ngibaqalekise, ngibenze babe yisimangaliso nento encimfelwayo , nencithakalo ephakade.

Mina ngenzile umhlaba , nomuntu, nesilwane okukhona emhlabeni ngamandla ami amakhulu nangengalo yami eyeluliweyo , ngiwunika lowo ofanele emehlweni ami.

Manje senginikele onke lawa mazwe esandleni sikaNebukadinesari inkosi yaseBabele, inceku yami ; futhi ngi yakumnika izilwane zasendle ukuba zimkhonze.

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

U-Efrayimi uyindodana yami yini eyigugu kimi, ungumntwana othandekayo na? Ngokuba njalo lapho ngikhuluma okubi ngaye , ngisamkhumbula nokumkhumbula; ngalokho izibilini zami ziyamhawukela ; ngiyakuba nesihe impela kuye, usho uJehova.

Bheka, uHanameli indodana kaShalumi uyihlokazi uyakufika kuwe , athi: Zithengele insimu yami ese -Anathoti, ngokuba ilungelo lokuyihlenga lingelakho ukuba uyithenge.

Wayesefika kimi uHanameli indodana kababekazi egcekeni letilongo njengezwi likaJehova, wathi kimi: Ake uyithenge insimu yami ese -Anathoti elisezweni lakwaBenjamini, ngokuba ilungelo lefa lingelakho , nokuhlenga kungokwakho; zithengele lona. Ngase ngazi ukuthi leli zwi lavela kuJehova.

Ngiyakuthokoza ngabo , ngibenzele okuhle , ngibatshale ngeqiniso kuleli zwe ngayo yonke inhliziyo yami nangawo wonke umphefumulo wami.

Bafika ukulwa namaKaledi, bazigcwalisa ngezidumbu zabantu engibabulele ngentukuthelo yami nangokufutheka kwami, nengifihlele lo muzi ubuso bami ngenxa yabo bonke ububi babo.

khona isivumelwano sami noDavide inceku yami siyakwaphulwa ukuze angabi nandodana yokubusa esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi , kanye namaLevi abapristi, izikhonzi zami.

Njengebandla lasezulw ini lingenakubalwa , nesihlabathi solwandle singenakulinganiswa, kanjalo ngiyakwandisa inzalo kaDavide inceku yami namaLevi angikhonzayo.

ngiyakulahla inzalo kaJakobe nekaDavide inceku yami, ukuze ngingathathi enzalweni yakhe ababusi benzalo ka -Abrahama, neka-Isaka, nekaJakobe, ngokuba ngiyakukubuyisa ukuthunjwa kwabo, ngibahawukele.

Ake uzwe manje , nkosi yami , nkosi; ukunxusa kwami makufike phambi kwakho ukuba ungangibuyiseli endlini kaJonathani umbhali , funa ngifele khona.

Nkosi yami , nkosi, laba bantu benzile okubi ngakho konke abakwenzile kuJeremiya umprofethi, abamphonsile emgodini; uyakufela endaweni lapho ekhona ngokulamba, ngokuba akusekho ukudla emzini.

Ngokuba usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Njengalokhu intukuthelo yami nokufutheka kwami kuthululelwe phezu kwabakhileyo eJerusalema , kanjalo ukufutheka kwami kuyakuthululelwa phezu kwenu , nxa nin gena eGibithe , nibe yisithuko , nesimangaliso nesiqalekiso, nehlazo, ningabe nisayibona le ndawo.

uthi kubo : U sho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: Bheka, ngiyakuthumela ukuba ngimbam be uNebukadinesari , inkosi yaseBabele, inceku yami , ngibeke isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi phezu kwalawa matshe engiwashiqeleyo, uyakweneka isivikelo sakhe phezu kwawo.

Kwase kuthululwa ukufutheka kwami nentukuthelo yami, kwavutha emizini yakwaJuda nasezitaladini zaseJerusalema , kwaba yincithakalo nokuchitheka njenganamuhla.

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

Ungesabi wena Jakobe , nceku yami , usho uJehova , ngokuba nginawe , ngokuba ngiyakuqeda ngokupheleley o zonke izizwe engikuxoshele kuzo , kepha wena angiyikukuqeda ; kodwa ngiyakukulaya ngokwahlulela , ngingakwenzi ube ngongenacala.

Ngalokho inhliziyo yam i ikhalela uMowabi njengemitshingo , futhi inhliziyo yami ikhalela amadoda aseKhiri Heresi njengemitshingo, ngokuba okuseleyo abakuzuzileyo kuyachitheka.

Ngiyakwenza ukuba i -Elamu liphele amandl a ngaphambi kwezitha zal o naphambi kwabafuna ukuphila kwabo , ngibehlisele okubi , ukufutheka kwentukuthelo yami, usho uJehova, ngithume inkemba emva kwabo , ngize ngibaqede.

Iziphambeko zami zaboshwa ngesandla sakhe , zaba yijoka ; zalukwa, sezisentanyeni yami; wakhubekisa amandla ami . INkosi inginikele esandleni sabo engingenakumelana nabo.

Bheka, Jehova, ngokuba nginosizi; izibilini zami ziyaxhaphazela. Inhliziyo yami iphendukile phakathi kwami, ngokuba ngihlubukile nokuhlubuka. Endle yinkemba eyaphucayo, ekhaya ngukufa.

Ugugisile inyama yami nesikhumba sami, waphula amathambo ami.

Ubiyele izindlela zami ngamatshe abaziweyo, wagwegwisa imikhondo yami.

Kepha yilokhu engiyakukubuyisela enhliziyweni yami , ngalokho nginethemba:

Ngalokho, kuphila kwami, isho iNkosi uJehova, ngokuba uyingcolisile indlu yami engcwele ngakho konke okuzondekayo kwakho nangazo zonke izinengiso zakho , ngalokho ngiyakukunciphisa impela , iso lami lingahawukeli, ngingabi nabubele.

Isiyakuphela intukuthelo yami , nganelise ukufutheka kwami ngabo , ngiduduzeke; bayakwazi ukuthi mina Jehova ngikhulumile ngomhawu wami, lapho sengifezile ukufutheka kwami ngabo.

Manje sengiyakuthulula masinyane ukufutheka kwami phezu kwakho , ngifeze intukuthelo yami kuwe , ngikwahlulele njengezindlela zakho , ngehlisele phezu kwakho zonke izinengiso zakho.

Kwathi ngomnyaka wesithupha ngenyanga yesithupha ngolwesihlanu lwenyanga lapho ngihlezi endlini yami , amalunga akwaJu da ehlezi ngaphambi kwami, isandla seNkosi uJehova sawela lapho phezu kwami.

Wathi kimi : Ndodana yomuntu , uyabona yini abakwenzayo , izinengiso ezinkulu indlu yakwa -Israyeli ezenzayo lapha ukuba ngidede kude nendlu yami engcwele na? Kepha uyakubuye ubone ezinye izinengiso ezinkulu.

nibulale nichithe amaxhegu, nezinsizwa, nezintombi, nezingane, nabesifazane, ningasondeli kodwa kumuntu okukuye uphawu , niqale endlini yami engcwele. Ayeseqala ngamadoda amadala ayephambi kwendlu.

Ngenza njengokungiyala kwakhe ; ngayikhipha impahla yami emini njengempahla yokuhamba, kusihlwa ngagebhula ogangeni ngesandla , nanxa sekumnyama ngayikhipha, ngayithwala ehlombe emehlweni abo.

Ngalokho isho kanje iNkosi uJehova , ithi: Ngiyakuludabula ngomoya wesivunguvungu ngokufutheka kwami , kube yimvula ekh ukhulayo ngentukuthelo yami, namatshe esichotho ngokufutheka ukuba aluqede.

Lapho ngidlula kuwe, ngikubona, bheka, kwakuyisikhathi sakho, isikhathi sokuthanda; ngeneka ingubo yami phezu kwakho , ngembathisa ubunqunu bakho; yebo, ngafunga kuwe , ngangena esivumelwaneni nawe , isho iNkosi uJehova, waba ngowami.

Wathatha izingubo zakho ezifekethisiweyo, wazisibekela, wabeka amafutha ami nempepho yami phambi kwazo.

Kodwa nithi: Indlela yeNkosi ayilingani. Yizwani nina ndlu yakwa-Israyeli: Indlela yami ayilingani na? Angithi yizindlela zenu ezingalingani na?

Kepha bangihlubuka, abangilalelanga, abalahlanga, kwaba yilowo nalowo okuzondekayo kwamehlo akhe , abazishiyanga izithombe zaseGibithe ; ngase ngithi ngiyakuthulula ukufutheka kwami phezu kwabo , ngifeze intukuthelo yami kubo phakathi kwezwe laseGibithe.

Kepha abantwana bangihlubuka , abahambanga ngezimiso zami , abagcinanga izahlulelo zami ukuba bazenze , umuntu ayakuphila ngazo uma ezenza; bawona amasabatha ami ; ngase ngithi ngiyakuthulu la ukufutheka kwami phezu kwabo, ngifeze intukuthelo yami kubo ehlane.

Ngokuba entabeni yami engcwele , empakameni yentaba yakwa-Israyeli, isho iNkosi uJehova , indlu yonke yakwa -Israyeli, yonke yayo , iyakungikhonza ezweni ; ngiyakubamukela khona , ngibize iminikelo yenu , nolibo lweminikelo yenu, nakho konke okungcwele kwenu.

uthi kulo izwe lakwa -Israyeli: Usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Bheka, ngimelene nawe; ngiyakuhosha inkemba yami emgodleni wayo, nginqume abalungileyo nababi.

Ngenxa yokuba ngiyakunquma kuwe abalungileyo nababi , ngalokho inkemba yami iyakuphuma emgodleni wayo , iphumele inyama yonke kusukela eningizimu kuye enyakatho.

Ilolelwe ukubulala nokubulala , iphucuziwe ukuba ibe njengonyazi . Besiyakujabula na? Le ntonga, ndodana yami, idelela konke okomuthi.

Ngiyakuthulula phezu kwakho intukuthelo yami , ngikufuthe ngomlilo wolaka lwami , ngikunikele ezandlen i zabantu abanonya , abayizingcweti zokuchitha.

Njengokuqoqwa kwesiliva nethusi nensimbi nomthofu nethini phakathi kwesithando ukuba kufuthwe umlilo phezu kwakho ukukuncibilikisa, kanjalo ngiyakunibutha ngentukuthelo yami nangokufutheka kwami , nginibeke khona, nginincibilikise.

Yebo, ngiyakunibutha, nginifuthe ngomlilo wentukuthelo yami , nincibilikiswe phakathi kwawo.

Futhi benza lokhu kimi : ngalona lolo suku abangcolisa ngalo indlu yami engcwele bawona namasabatha ami.

Ngiyakumisa ngibe yinqaba yendlu yami , ukuze kungabikho odlula yo nobuyayo; akusayikudlula mcindezeli kubo , ngokuba sengibonile ngawami amehlo. INkosi yaseSiyoni

Ngase ngithulula ukufutheka kwami phezu kwabo ; ngibaqedile ngomlilo wentukuthelo yami, ngehlisela indlela yabo phezu kwama khanda abo, isho iNkosi uJehova.

wathi: Baba, uma uthanda , susa lesi sitsha kimi ; nokho makungenziwa intando yami kodwa eyakho.

Onomlobokazi ungumyeni , kepha umhlobo womyeni omiyo emuzwa uthokoza nokuthokoza ngezwi lomyeni. Le ntokozo yami isiphelele.

Ngokuba ngehle ezulwini kungengukuba ngenze intando yami , kodwa ukuba ngenze intando yongithumileyo.

Mina ngiyisinkwa esiphilayo esehla ezulwini . Uma umuntu edla lesi sinkwa, uyakuphila phakade ; futhi-ke isinkwa engizakusinikela ngenxa yokuphila kwezwe siyinyama yami.

Odla inyama yami , aphuze igazi lami , unokuphila okuphakade ; mina ngiyakumvusa ngomuhla wokuphela.

Ngokuba inyama yami ingukudla isibili, negazi lami lingukuphuza isibili.

Odla inyama yami, aphuze igazi lami, uhlala kimi, nami kuye.

Khona uJesu wabaphendula wathi : Imfundiso yami akusiyo eyami kodwa ngeyongithumileyo.

Yini ukuba ningayizwisisi inkulumo yami na? Kungokuba aninakuzwa izwi lami.

UJesu waphendula wathi : Leli zwi alizanga ngenxa yami kepha ngenxa yenu.

Uma ningithanda, niyakugcina imiyalo yami.

Onemiyalo yami ayigcine, nguyena ongithandayo ; ongithandayo uyakuthandwa nguBaba, nami ngiyakumthanda, ngizibonakalise kuye.

Uma nigcina imiyalo yami , niyakuhlala othandweni lwami , njengalokho mina ngigcinile imiyalo kaBaba ngihlala othandweni lwakhe.

Baba, ngithanda ukuba labo ongiphe bona nabo babe khona nami lapha ngikhona, ukuze babone inkazimulo yami ongiphe yona ; ngokuba wangithanda, kungakasekelwa izwe.

Zona-ke zathi kuye: Mame, ukhalelani na? Wathi kuzo: Bayithathile iNkosi yami, futhi angazi ukuthi bayibekephi.

UTomase waphendula, wathi kuye: Nkosi yami, Nkulunkulu wami!

Ngalokho inhliziyo yami iyajabula , nolimi lwami luyethaba ; ngisho nenyama yami iyakuhlala ngokwethemba.

Ngokuba uDavide akenyukelanga ezulwini, kepha yena uthi : INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: Hlala ngakwesokunene sami,

Izulu liyisihlalo sami sobukhosi , nomhlaba uyisenabelo sezinyawo zami ; ngenjani indlu eniyakungakhela yona, isho iNkosi, noma yiyiphi indawo yami yokuphumula na?

UKorneliyu wathi : Ngezinsuku ezine ezidlule ngaleli hora bengenza umkhuleko wehora lesishiyagalolunye endlini yami ; bheka, indoda eyembethe ingubo ekhazimulayo yema phambi kwami,

Esemkhiphile wabavusela uDavide abe yinkosi , afakaza ngaye ukuthi : Ngimfumene uDavide kaJesayi , umuntu ongowenhliziyo yami , oyakwenza konke engikuthandayo.

ukuthi uNkulunkulu usigcwalisile sona kubantwana bethu ngokumvusa uJesu, njengokuba kulotshiwe futhi kulo ihubo lesibili ukuthi : Wena uyiNdodana yami, namuhla ngikuzele.

Kuthe esebhapathiziwe kanye nendlu yakhe , wasincenga wathi: Uma nithi ngikholekile eNkosini, ngenani endlini yami, nihlale khona, wasicindezela. UPawulu uyaboshwa

Khona uPawulu waphendula wathi : Nenzelani ukukhala nichoboza inhliziyo yami na ? Ngokuba sengilungele , kungesikho ukuboshwa kuphela kepha nokufa eJerusalema ngenxa yegama leNkosi uJesu.

Inkambo yami kwasebusheni eyaba sesizweni sakithi naseJerusalema kwasekuqaleni bonke abaJuda bayayazi,

njalo emikhul ekweni yami , nginxusa ukuba , uma kungenzeka ngentando kaNkulunkulu, ngiphumelele ukufika kini.

Ngokuba ngiyazi ukuthi kimi, kungukuthi enyameni yami, akuhlali okuhle; ngokuba intando ikhona kimi, kodwa ukwenza okuhle akukho,

kepha ngibona omunye umthetho ezithweni zami olwayo nomthetho wengqondo yami, ungithumbela emthethweni wesono osezithweni zami.

Bazalwane, ukulangazela kwenhliziyo yami nokunxusa kwami kuNkulunkulu ngabo kungukuba basindiswe.

ukuba mhlawumbe ngingabavusela umhawu abenyama yami , ngisindise abanye kubo.

Nganilobela encwadini yami ukuba ningahlangani nezifebe;

kangisho owakho unembeza , ngisho owalowo omunye . Ngokuba yini ukuba inkululeko yami yahlulwe ngunembeza womunye na?

Ngokuba uma ngikhuleka ngezilimi , kukhuleka umoya wami , kepha ingqondo yami ayinasithelo.

kodwa ebandleni ngingathanda ukukhuluma amazwi ayisihlanu ngengqondo yami , ukuze ngifundise abanye , kunamazwi ayizinkulungwane eziyishumi ngezilimi.

Nakuba nganidabukisa ngencwadi yami , angizisoli; nakuba ngangizisola -- ngiyabona ukuthi leyo ncwadi yanidabukisa noma kwaba yisikhathi nje --

angiyeki ukubonga ngenxa yenu, nginikhumbula emikhulekweni yami,

Nizwile phela lokhu ngenkambo yami yakuqala ebuJudeni ukuthi ngalizingela kakhulu ibandla likaNkulunkulu, ngalichitha,
