Yilesi isithembiso yena asethembisa sona: ukuphila okuphakade.

bethi: Siphi isithembiso sokufika kwakhe na ? Ngokuba kuselokhu obaba balala, konke kumi kunjalo njengakwasekuqaleni kokudalwa.

Kwathi ngasekupheleni kweminyaka engamashumi amane u -Abisalomu wathi enkosini : Mangihambe ukugcwalisa isithembiso sami engasethembisa kuJehova eHebroni.

Ngokuba inceku yakho yenza isithembiso ngisahlezi eGeshuri lase -Aramu sokuthi: U ma uJehova engibuyisela impela eJerusalema , ngiyakumkhonza uJehova.

ukuthi wafunga kuJehova , wenza isithembiso kuye onguMninimandla kaJakobe, ethi:

Umusa wayo unqamukile njalo yini na ? Isithembiso siphelile yini ezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwane na?

kwathi ehlangene nabo , wabayala ngokuthi : Ningamuki eJerusalema , kodwa nihlalele isithembiso sikaYise enasizwa ngami.

Ngakho-ke wena ungabavumeli , ngokuba kubona amqamekele amadoda angaphezu kwamashumi amane azilokotheleyo ukuba angadli , angaphuzi, engakambulali; manje-ke sebelungele bebheke isithembiso sakho.

ngakho ephakanyiselwe ngakwesokunene sikaNkulunkulu , esamukele kuYise isithembiso sikaMoya oNgcwele , wakuthulula lokhu enikubonayo nenikuzwayo.

Ngokuba isithembiso ngesenu nesabantwana benu , esabo bonke abakude , bonke iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu eyakubabiza.

Ngokuba nidinga ukubekezela , ukuze seniyenzile intando kaNkulunkulu namukele isithembiso.

Labo bonke, befakazelwe ngokukholwa, abazuzanga isithembiso,

Ngakho-ke masesabe ukuba , kuthi kusekhona isithembiso sokungena ekuphumuleni kwakhe, kungabikho noyedwa kini obonakala esele emuva.

ukuba isibusiso sika-Abrahama ngoKristu Jesu sifike kubo abezizwe, ukuze samukeliswe isithembiso sikaMoya ngokukholwa. Isithembiso asichithwa ngumthetho

Kepha ngisho lokhu ukuthi isivumelwano esaqiniswa nguNkulunkulu ngaphambili, umthetho owavela emva kweminyaka engamakhulu amane namashumi amathathu, awusesuli, uze usichithe isithembiso;

Pho, umthetho uyini na ? Wenezelwa ngenxa yeziphambeko , kuze kufike inzalo enikiwe isithembiso, umisiwe ngezingelosi, ngesandla somlamuleli.

Kepha umbhalo uvalele konke phansi kwesono , ukuze isithembiso ngokukholwa nguJesu Kristu siphiwe abakholwayo. Umthetho ongumlayi uyisa kuKristu

Ngokuba isithembiso sokuthi uyakuba yindlalifa yezwe asinik wanga u - Abrahama nenzalo yakhe ngawo umthetho kodwa ngokulunga kokukholwa.

Ngalokho kuya ngokukholwa ukuba kube ngokomusa , ukuze isithembiso siqiniseke enzalweni yonke , kungabi kweyomthetho yodwa kodwa nakuleyo engeyokukholwa kuka-Abrahama ongubaba wethu sonke,

ubusisiwe umuntu iNkosi engayikumbalela isono. U-Abrahama wamukeliswa isithembiso ngokukholwa.

Bhekani, ngiyathumela kini isithembiso sikaBaba ; kepha hlalani emzini , nize nembathiswe amandla avela phezulu. Ukuvalelisa kukaJesu nokwenyuselwa kwakhe (Mark. 16:19; IzE. 1:9)

Ukuqala kolibo lwezwe lakho wokuletha endlini kaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho. Awuyikupheka izinyane lembuzi obisini lukanina. Isithembiso sezwe laseKhanani

Ngalokho uJehova uyakulindel a ukuba abe nomusa kini ; nangalokhu uyakuphakama ukuba abe nesihe kini , ngokuba uJehova unguNkulunkulu wokwahlulela; babusisiwe bonke abamhlalelayo. Isithembiso sikaNkulunkulu

Ungayingenisi inkokhelo yesifebe nemali yenja endlini kaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ukugcwalisa isithembiso ; kokubili kuyisinengiso kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho.

Nxa wenza isithembiso kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho , ungalibali ukusigcwalisa, ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho uyakusibiza nokusibiza kuwe, kube yisono kuwe.

Lokho okuphume emlonyeni wakho uyakukugcina , ukwenze, njengokwethembisa kwakho uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho isithembiso sesihle owasethembisa ngomlomo wakho.

Wasuka lapho, wemba omunye umthombo; abaphikisananga ngawo; wabiza igama lawo ngokuthi iRehoboti , wathi: Ngokuba uJehova usenzele indawo ; siyakwanda ezweni. Isithembiso sika-Abrahama siyaphindwa ku-Isaka

UJakobe wenza isithembiso , wathi: Uma uNkulunkulu eyakuba nami , angilondoloze kule ndlela engihamba ngayo , angiphe isinkwa sokudliwa nezingubo zokwembatha,

NginguNkulunkulu waseBethele , lapho wagcoba khona insika na lapho wenza isithembiso kimi ; manje vuka , usuke kuleli zwe , ubuyele ezweni lokuzalwa kwakho.

Isithembiso enganinika sona ekuphumeni kwenu eGibithe noMoya wami kuyakuhlala phakathi kwenu; ningesabi.

Ngokuba udelele isifungo ngokusaphula isivumelwano , wakwenza konke lokhu, noma enikile isithembiso sakhe; bheka, kayikuphunyuka.

Umuntu onikela ngomhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula kuJehova ukugcwalisa isithembiso noma owomnikelo wesihle ezinkomeni noma ezimvini, umelwe ukuphelela ukuba wamukeleke, kungabi sici kuwo.

Yisho kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi kubo: Nxa umuntu enza isithembiso esithile, lapho uyakulinganisa abantu kuJehova,

babambelela kubafowabo , abakhulu babo , benza isithembiso nesifungo sokuba bahambe emthethweni k aNkulunkulu owanikwa ngesandla sikaMose inceku kaNkulunkulu, bagcine, benze yonke imiyalo kaJehova iN kosi yethu, nezahlulelo zakhe, nezimiso zakhe

nenze umnikelo womlilo kuJehova , umnikelo wokushiswa , noma umhlatshelo wokugcwalisa isithembiso , noma umnikelo wesihle , noma owemikhosi yenu emisiweyo , ukwenza iphunga elimnandi kuJehova , owezinkomo noma owezimvu,

Nxa ulungisa iduna libe ngumnikelo wokushiswa , noma umhlatshelo wokugcwalisa isithembiso, noma kube yiminikelo yokuthula kuJehova,

U-Israyeli wenza isithembiso kuJehova, wathi: Uma unikela nokunikela laba bantu esandleni sami, ngiyakuchitha impela imizi yabo.

Uma enzile isithembiso endlini yendoda yakhe , noma ebophe nge sibopho umphefumulo wakhe ngesifungo,

Nxa umuntu enza isithembiso kuJehova, noma efunga isifungo ukubopha umphefumulo wakhe ngesibopho esithile , akayikwaphula izwi lakhe ; uyakwenza njengakho konke okuphuma emlonyeni wakhe.

Uma owesifazane enza isithembiso kuJehova , azibophe ngesibopho esithile esendlini kayise, esemusha,

uyise esizwa isithembiso sakhe nesibopho sakhe abophe ngaso umphefumulo wakhe, engasho lutho kuye , izithembiso zakhe zonke ziyakuma , nazo zonke izibopho abophe ngazo umphefumulo wakhe ziyakuma;

kepha uma indoda yakhe imalela ngosuku ekuzwa ngalo , iyakwenza ize isithembiso sakhe esiphezu kwak he nokuphahlukiwe ngumlomo wakhe abophe ngakho umphefumulo wakhe, uJehova amthethelele.

Kepha isithembiso somfelokazi noma esolahliweyo , konke abophe ngakho umphefumulo wakhe kuyakuma kuye.

Yisho kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli, uthi kubo : Nxa owesilisa noma owesifazane enza isithembiso esithile , isithembiso somNaziri , ukuzahlukanisela kuJehova,

Lowo ungumthetho womNaziri owenzile isithembiso nowomnikelo wakhe kuJehova ngenxa yobuNaziri bakhe , ngaphandle kokunye angaphumelela kukho; njengesithembiso sakhe asenzayo uyakwenza kanjalo njengomthetho wobuNaziri.

Akayikuzingcolisa ngoyise noma ngonina , noma ngomfowabo noma ngodadewabo, nxa befile, ngokuba isithembiso sakhe sobuNaziri sisekhanda lakhe.

Lapho wenza isithembiso phambi kukaNkulunkulu, ungalibali ukusifeza , ngokuba akathokozi ngeziwula: feza lokhu okwethembisayo.

Kungcono ukuba ungenzi isithembiso kunokuba uthembisa ungafezi.
