Inkosi yayala , baqopha amatshe amakhulu , amatshe anenani elikhulu , ukuba babeke isisekelo sendlu ngamatshe abaziweyo.

Nesisekelo sasingamatshe anenani elikhulu , amatshe amakhulu , amatshe ayizingalo eziyishumi, namatshe ayizingalo eziyisishiyagalombili.

Zase zinikela ngenhliziyo izikhulu zawoyise , nezikhulu zezizwe zakwa - Israyeli, nezinduna zezinkulungwane nez amakhulu kanye nezinduna zomsebenzi wenkosi;

emva kwalokho wabonwa ngasikhathi sinye ngabazalw ane abadlula amakhulu ayisihlanu , iningi labo lisekhona nakalokhu , kepha abanye sebelele;

Amadodana amathathu amakhulu kaJese ayemlandele uSawule ukuya empini; amagama amadodana akhe amathathu ayeyile empin i ayengu - Eliyabe izibulo, emelamayo ngu-Abinadaba, neyesithathu nguShama.

UDavide nguye owayengomncinyane ; amathathu amakhulu amlandela uSawule.

kepha uJehova owanikhuphula ezweni laseGibithe ngamandla amakhulu nangengalo eyeluliweyo yena niyakumesaba , kuyena niyakukhothamela , nimhlabele yena;

Phansi kwezandl a zabo kwakukhona impi enamandla eyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu nezinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa namakhulu ayisihlanu, eyalwa ngamandla amakhulu ukuba isize inkosi ezitheni.

Wenza eJerusalema imishini eyaqanjwa ngokuhlakanipha ukuba ibe phezu kwemibhoshongo nasezingosini , kuphonswe ngayo imicibisholo namatshe amakhulu. Igama lakhe laphumela ekudeni , ngokuba wasizwa ngokumangalisayo waze waba namandla.

Amakhosi amaFilisti enyukela kuye , athi kuye : Myenge, ubone ukuthi amandla akhe amakhulu aphi nokuthi singamahlula ngani ukuba simbophe , simnqobe; siyakukunika, kube yilowo nalowo, izinhlamvu eziyinkulungwane nekhulu zesiliva.

UDelila wathi kuSamsoni : Ake ungitshele ukuthi amandla akho amakhulu aphi nokuthi ungaboshwa ngani, unqotshwe.

Inhlangano yathuma khona abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyishumi nambili abangamaqhawe amakhulu , yabayala yathi: Hambani nibabulale abakhe eJabeshi Gileyadi ngosiko lwenkemba kanye nabesifazane nezingane.

Wayesethi uJehova kuGideyoni : Ngalawo madoda amakhulu amathathu axhaphayo ngizakunisi ndisa, ngibanikele abakwaMidiyani esandleni sakho ; bonke abanye abantu mabahambe, yilowo nalowo aye endaweni yakhe.

Abantu base bethatha umphako ngesandla sabo namacilongo abo ; bonke abanye abakwa-Israyeli wabathuma , kwabayilowo nalowo etendeni lakhe , wagcina lawo madoda amakhulu amathathu; ikamu lakwaMidiyani laliphansi kwakhe esigodini.

Behlela elwandle ngemikhumbi, bathengiselana emanzini amakhulu.

UJehova uyakunquma zonke izindebe ezithophayo , ulimi olukhuluma amazwi amakhulu,

owashaya amakhosi amakhulu, ngokuba umusa wakhe umi phakade;

Izwi likaJehova liphezu kwamanzi , uNkulunkulu wenkazimulo uyaduma ; uJehova uphezu kwamanzi amakhulu.

Ngakho-ke yilowo nalowo olungileyo makakhuleke kuw e ngesikhathi sokukufumana; impela kuyakuthi lapho amanzi amakhulu ekhukhula , angafinyeleli kuye.

Ingelosi yesikhombisa yayisibetha ; kwase kuba khona amazwi amakhulu ezulwini athi : Umbuso wezwe usungoweNkosi yethu nokaKristu wayo ; iyakubusa kuze kube phakade naphakade.

ethi: Siyakubonga, Nkosi Nkulunkulu , Mninimandla onke , okhona nowawukhona, ngokuba uthabathe amandla akho amakhulu, wabusa;

Emva kwalokho ngabona enye ingelosi yehla ezulwini, inamandla amakhulu, nomhlaba wakhanyiswa ngokukhazimula kwayo.

Abaphostoli baveza ngamandla amakhulu ubufakazi ngokuvuka kweNkosi uJesu; umusa omkhulu wawuphezu kwabo bonke.

Ngokuba ngaphambi kwalezi zinsuku kwasuka uThewuda ezishaya omkhulu; kwanamathela kuye amadoda angathi amakhulu amane; wabulawa yena nabo bonke abamlalelayo, bachitheka, baphela.

nokungubukhulu obumangalisayo bamandla akhe kithina esikholwayo , ngokokusebenza kwamandla akhe amakhulu

Elokugcina, qinani eNkosini nasemandleni ayo amakhulu.

Bethuka bonke ngamandla amakhulu kaNkulunkulu. UJesu ukhuluma futhi ngokuhlupheka kwakhe (Math. 17: 22; Mark. 9: 30) Besamangele bonke ngakho konke akwenzileyo, wathi kubafundi bakhe:

Khona-ke bayakubona iNdodana yomuntu iza emafwini , inamandla amakhulu nenkazimulo.

kodwa nxa isihlwanyelwe imila ibe nkulu kunazo zonke izilimo , ixhante amagatsha amakhulu, ukuze izinyoni zezulu zakhele emthunzini wawo.

UJehova wayesewuphendula umoya waba ngowasentshonalanga onamandla amakhulu ; wona wasusa isikhonyane , wasilahla eLwandle Olubomvu; akwasala sikhonyane nesisodwa ezweni lonke laseGibithe.

Zithabathele amakha amahle, imure eliphumayo lamashekeli angamakhulu ayisihlanu, nokinamona othaphukayo wenxenye yalokho , okungukuthi amakhulu amabili namashumi ayisihlanu , nekalamu elithaphukayo lamakhulu amabili namashumi ayisihlanu,

UMose wamshweleza uJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe, wathi: Jehova, ulaka lwakho lubavuthelelani abantu bakho owabakhuphula ezweni laseGibithe ngamandla amakhulu nangesandla esiqinileyo na?

Lapho isimemezelo senkosi eyakusenza sesiyakuzwakala embusweni wayo wonke, ngokuba mkhulu bonke abafazi bayakuwahlonipha amadoda abo , amakhulu namancane.

Makwazeke enkosini ukuthi saya ezweni lakwaJuda endlini kaNkulun kulu omkhulu eyakhiwe ngamatshe amakhulu , imithi ifakwe ezindongeni ; lo msebenzi uqhubeka ngesineke, unempumelelo ezandleni zabo.

ayibe nezinhla ezintathu zamatshe amakhulu , nohla lwemithi emisha , izindleko zikhishwe endlini yenkosi;

elithuma izigijimi ngolwandle nangemikhumbi yemihlanga phezu kwamanzi. Hambani nina zithunywa ezinejubane, niye esizweni esidephileyo nesikhazimulayo, kubantu abesabekayo lapha nasekudeni , isizwe esinamandla amakhulu nesinyathelayo, esilizwe laso lidatshulwe yimifula.

Ngaleso sikhathi kuyakulethwa isipho kuJehova Sebawot i yibo abantu abadephileyo nabakhazimulayo , sivela kubantu abesa bekayo lapha nasekudeni, isizwe esinamandla amakhulu nesinyathelayo , esilizwe laso lidatshulwe yimifula , endaweni yegama likaJehova Sebawoti , intaba yaseSiyoni.

Ngabheka ngaleso sikhathi ngenxa yenhlokomo yamazwi amakhulu akhulunywa luphondo; ngabheka saze sahlatshwa isilo , wachithwa umzimba waso, sanikelwa ukuba sishiswe ngomlilo.

Emva kwalokho ngabona emibonweni ebusuku ; bheka, isilo sesine , esesabekayo, sinamandla, siqinile kakhulu; sasinamazinyo amakhulu ensimbi, sadla, saphula, sanyathela okuseleyo ngezinyawo zaso ; sahlukile kuzo zonke izilo ezazingaphambi kwaso; sasinezimpondo eziyishumi.

Iyakuba namandla amakhulu, ingenamandla eyokuqala kodwa; iyakuchitha ngokumangalisayo, iphumelele ukukwenza ; iyakuchitha abanamandla nabantu abangcwele.

Kuyakuthi mhla niwela iJordani ukuya ezweni uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akunika lona, uzimisele amatshe amakhulu, uwanameke ngodaka,

Lokhu ebethanda oyihlo wakhetha inzalo yabo emva kwabo , wakukhipha yena uqobo ngamandla akhe amakhulu eGibithe

Nokho bangabantu bakho nefa lakho owalikhipha ngamandla akho amakhulu nangengalo yakho eyeluliweyo.

uthi: Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova , ithi: Ukhozi olukhulu olunamaphiko amakhulu noluzimpaphe zalo zinkulu, lugcwele izimpaphe ezinemibala eyahlukeneyo, lweza eLebanoni, lwathatha isihloko somsedari,

Kepha kwakukhona nolunye ukhozi olukhulu olunamaphiko amakhulu nezimpaphe eziningi ; bheka, lo mvini wabhekisa izimpande zawo kulo , waphumisela kulo amagatsha awo ukuba luwunisele kunemisele lapho wawutshalwe khona.

Thana: Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Uyakuphumelela na? Aluyikusiphula izimpande zawo , lunqume izithelo zawo , ukuze ubune , kubune onke amaqabunga ahlumelelayo , bese kungafuneki amandla amakhulu nabantu abaningi ukuwusiphula ngezimpande zawo, na?

Umuzi uyakuba namadlelo : ngasenyakatho ngamakhulu amabili namashumi ayisihlanu , nangaseningizimu amakhulu amabili namashumi ayisihlanu, nangasempumalanga amakhulu amabili namashumi ayisihlanu , nangasentshonalanga amakhulu amabili namashumi ayisihlanu.

Ngokuba bayakukhonziswa nabo yizizwe eziningi nangamakhosi amakhulu, ngiphindise kubo ngezenzo zabo nangemisebenzi yezandla zabo.

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

Zonke izizwe ziyakumkhonza , yena nendodana yakhe , nendodana yendodana yakhe , kuze kufike isikhathi sezwe lakhe , izizwe eziningi namakhosi amakhulu babakhonzise.

E, Nkosi Jehova , bheka, wena wenzile izulu nomhlaba ngamandla akho amakhulu nangengalo yakho eyeluliweyo; akukho lutho olukwahlulayo

Thatha ngesandla sakho amatshe amakhulu , uwashiqele odakeni kuhonela ongasemnyango wendlu kaFaro eThahipanesi emehlweni abantu bakwaJuda,

Wena ohlala ngasemanzini amakhulu , nonengcebo eningi , sekufikile ukugcina kwakho, isilinganiso sokuhaha kwakho.

ngokuba uJehova uyalichitha iBabele , aqede phakathi kwalo umsindo omkhulu; amaza alo ayahlokoma njengamanzi amakhulu , nomsindo wokuhlokoma kwawo uyezwakala,

Ubeyakuphikisana nami ngamandla akhe amakhulu na ? Cha, ubeyakubhekisa kimi.

Ngamandla amakhulu umzimba wami wonakele ; unamathela kimi njengentamo yesambatho sami.

Kwathi besabalekela u -Israyeli behla eBeti Horoni , uJehova wawisa phezu kwabo amatshe amakhulu , ehla ezulwini , baze bafika e -Azeka, bafa; babe baningi abafa ngesichotho kunababulawa ngu-Israyeli ngenkemba.

UJoshuwa wathi : Gingqelani amatshe amakhulu emlonyeni womhume , nibeke amadoda ngakuwo ukuba awalinde;

Kwathi ngesikhathi sokushona kwe langa uJoshuwa wayala , bawehlisa emithini, bawaphonsa emhumeni lapho ebecashe khona , babeka amatshe amakhulu emlonyeni womhume; akhona nanamuhla. Ukunqotshwa kwemizi ngaseningizimu yaseKhanani

UJoshuwa wayesekhuluma kuyo indlu kaJosefa , naku-Efrayimi, nakuManase, ethi: Uyisizwe esikhulu , unamandla amakhulu ; awuyikuba nasabelo esisodwa nje;

Bayizinceku zakho nabantu bakho obahlengile ngamandla akho amakhulu nangesandla sakho esiqinileyo.
