Inkosi yamthanda u -Esteri phezu kwabo bonke abesifazane, wafumana umusa nesihe emehlweni ayo kunazo zonke izintombi , wamfaka umqhele wobukhosi, wamenza inkosikazi esikhundleni sikaVashiti.

inkosi eyavumela ngakho abaJuda ababesemizini ngemizi ukuba babuthane, bamele ukuphila kwabo , bachithe, babulale, babhubhise onke amabutho abantu nawesifunda abahlaselayo, izingane nabesifazane, impahla yabo ibe yimpango,

Abalobi benkosi babizwa ngaleso sikhathi ngenyanga yesithathu, eyinyanga kaSivani, ngolwamashumi amabili nantathu lwayo ; kwalotshwa njengakho konke uMoridekayi ayala ngakho abaJuda , nawothulasizwe, nababusi, nezikhulu zezifunda , kusukela e -Indiya kuze kufike eKushe , izifunda eziyikhulu namashumi amabili nesikhombisa , izifunda ngezifunda njengokubhala kwazo , nezizwe ngezizwe njengolimi lwazo , nabaJuda njengokubhala kwabo nanjengolimi lwabo.

Ngenyanga yeshumi nambili eyinyanga ka -Adari ngosuku lweshumi nantathu lwayo , lapho kusond ela izwi lenkosi nomthetho wayo ukuba kwenziwe, ngosuku izitha zabaJuda ezazethembile ngalo ukubusa phezu kwabo nokho kwaguqulwa ukuze abaJuda babuse phezu kwababazondayo.

Abanye abaJuda ababe sezifundeni zenkosi babuthana , bamela ukuphila kwabo, baphumula ezitheni za bo, babulala abay izinkulungwane ezingamashumi ayisikhombisa nanhlanu ababazondayo , kepha ababekanga izandla zabo empangweni.

ukuba aqinise lezo zinsuku zePhurimi ngezikhathi zazo ezinqunyiweyo njengokuzimisa kukaMoridekayi umJuda no-Esteri inkosikazi, nanjengalokho bezimisele bona nenzalo yabo ngendaba yokuzila ukudla nokukhala kwabo.

AbaJuda baceka zonke izitha zabo ngokuceka kwenkemba , nangokubulala, nangokuchitha, benza kwababazondayo njengokuthanda kwabo.

Bonke labo babethathe abesifazane babezizwe ; kwakukhona phakathi kwabo abesifazane ababezele abantwana.

Labo bafuna ukubhalwa kwabo phakathi kwababhaliweyo ngezizukulwane , kepha kabafunyanwanga ; ngalokho bakhishwa ebupristini , kwathiwa bangcolile.

Baphendulana ngokumdumisa nangokumbonga uJehova , bathi: Ngokuba muhle, ngokuba umusa wakhe umi phakade phezu kuka -Israyeli. Bonke abantu bakhamuluka ngokukhamuluka okukhulu ekumdumiseni kwabo uJehova, ngokuba isisekelo sendlu kaJehova sase sibekiwe.

Ngomnyaka wesibili wokufika kwabo endli ni kaNkulunkulu eJerusalema ngenyanga yesibili uZerubabele , indodana kaSheyalitiyeli , noJeshuwa indodana kaJosadaki, nensali yabafowabo abapristi , namaLevi, nabo bonke abafike eJerusalema bevela ekuthunjweni baqala ukumisa amaLevi, kusukela kwabaneminyaka engamashumi amabili kuya phezulu ukuba babonise umsebenzi wendlu kaJehova.

Abaprofethi, uHagayi umprofethi noZakariya indodana ka -Ido, baprofetha kubaJuda ababekwaJuda naseJerusalema ngegama likaNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli owayephezu kwabo.

Ngokuba nganginamahloni ukucela enkosini impi nabamahhashi ukuba basisize ezitheni zasendleleni, ngokuba sasikhulumile enkosini, sathi: Isandla sikaNkulunkulu wethu siphezu kwabo bonke abamfun ayo ukuba kube kuhle , kepha amandla akhe nentukuthelo yakhe kuphezu kwabo bonke abamshiyayo.

oyale ngayo ngezandla zezinceku zakho abaprofethi ngokuthi : Izwe eniya kulo ukulidla liyizwe elingcolileyo ngenxa yokungcola kwabantu bezizwe ngezinengiso zabo eziligcwalisile ngokonakalisa kwabo , kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kufike ekugcineni.

Ngalokho ninganiki amadodana abo amadodakazi enu , futhi ningathatheli amadodana enu amadod akazi abo, ningafuni ukuthula kwabo nenhlalakahle yabo kuze kube phakade , ukuze nibe namandla , nidle okuhle kwezwe , nilishiye libe yifa labantwana benu kuze kube phakade.

Ngokuba noma abantu bakho , Israyeli, bengangesihlabathi solwandle , kuyakubuya phakathi kwabo insali nje ; ukuchithwa kunqunyiwe , okuchichima ukulunga.

Isiprofetho ngeGibithe. Bheka, uJehova ukhwele phezu kwefu elinejubane, uyeza eGibithe ; onkulunkulu baseGibithe bayathuthumela ebusweni bakhe , nezinhliziyo zabaseGibithe ziphela amandla phakathi kwabo.

UJehova uthulule umoya ophambeneyo phakathi kwabo , baze balintengantengise iGibithe kuyo yonke imisebenzi yal o njengesidakwa sintengantenga ebuhlanzweni baso.

Ngiyakubanikeza abaseGibith e esandleni senkosi elukhuni , nenkosi enamandla iyakubusa phezu kwabo, isho iNkosi uJehova Sebawoti.

NguJehova Sebawoti okucebiley o ukuba konakaliswe ukuziphakamisa kwabo bonke ubukhosi, badeleleke bonke abadumileyo bomhlaba.

Ngokuba ubuyinqaba kwabampofu, inqaba kwabaswelayo ekucindezelweni kwabo, isiphephelo esivunguvungwini , umthunzi ekubaleleni , ngokuba umoya waba nonya, unjengesivunguvungu odongeni,

Abafileyo ababuyi baphile , izithunzi azibuyi zivuke ; ngalokho wabahambela, wabachitha, wenza ukuba konke ukukhunjulwa kwabo kuphele.

Yathi iNkosi : Ngenxa yokuba laba bantu besondela , bangidumise ngemilomo yabo nangezindebe zabo , kodwa bazidedisele kude nami izinhliziyo zabo , nokungesaba kwabo kungumyalo wabantu abawufundisiweyo nje,

Manje hamba ukulobe phambi kwabo esibhebheni , ukubhale encwadin i ukuba kube ngubufakazi besikhathi esizayo kuze kube phakade.

Ngobani phakathi kwabo bonke onkulunkulu balawa mazwe abophule izwe lakubo esandleni sami ukuba uJehova alophule iJerusal ema esandleni sami na?

Ukukhetha kwabo ubuso kuyafakaza ngabo ; benza izono zabo obala njengeSodoma, abazifihli. Maye kuyo imiphefumulo yabo ! Ngokuba bazenzele okubi.

Kepha lapho ngibheka , akukho muntu , akakho phakathi kwabo umlulek i ongaphendula ngazwi, lapho ngibabuzayo.

Izizwe zonke mazibuth elwe ndawonye, abantu bonke babuthane ; ngubani phakathi kwabo ongamemezela lokhu , asizwise izinto zakuqala ; mabalethe ofakazi babo ukuba balungisiswe, bezwe, bathi: Kuyiqiniso.

oshafisa izibonakaliso zabaprofethi bamanga , enze ababhuli ukuba bahlanye, obuyisela emuva abahlakan iphileyo, enze ukwazi kwabo kube ngubuwula;

Buthanani nina nonke , nizwe; ngubani phakathi kwabo omemezela lezi zinto na ? Amthandayo uJehova uyakuyifeza intando yakhe ngeBabele , nengalo yakhe iyakuba phezu kwamaKaledi.

Manje nginantoni lapha, usho uJehova, lapho abantu bami besusiwe ngeze na? Ababusa phezu kwabo bayaklabalasa , usho uJehova , negama lami liyahlanjalazwa njalo usuku lonke.

Njengokwenza kwabo, kanjalo uyakubaphindisela: ukufutheka kuzo izitha zakhe, nokwenza kwabo kwabamelene naye, abuyisele eziqhingini izenzo zazo.

Ngalokho indawo yabafileyo yandisile isifiso sayo , yavula umlomo wayo ngokungalinganiswayo; kwehlela kuyo amakhosi abo , nesixuku sabo esixokozelayo, kanye nabajabulayo phakathi kwabo.

Ukubhonga kwabo kunjengokwengonyamakazi, bayakubhonga njengamabhongo ebhubesi, yebo, bayakugwavuma, babambe impango yabo , bamuke nayo, kungekho oyophulayo.

Bayakugwavuma phezu kwabo ngalolo suk u njengokuduma kolwandle ; uma umuntu ebuka umhlaba , bheka, naso isigayegaye sobumnyama , nokukhanya kwenziwe mnyama ngamafu awo.

Abantu bakhe base bekhumbul a izinsuku zakuqala zikaMose , bathi: Uphi yena owabakhipha elwandl e kanye nabelusi bomhlambi wakhe , na? Uphi yena owabeka uMoya wakhe oNgcwele phakathi kwabo,

Sinjengalabo ongazange ubuse phezu kwabo , nabangabizwanga ngegama lakho.

Abaningi phakathi kwabo bayakukhubeka , bawe, baphuke, bacushwe, babanjwe.

Uyakwandisa isizwe , ukhulise intokozo yaso ; bathokoza phambi kwakh o njengokuthokoza ekuvuneni , njengalokhu abantu bethokoza ekwabeleni kwabo impango.

Bonke abantu bayakwazi , u-Efrayimi nabakhe eSamariya , abasho ekuziphakamiseni kwabo nasekuziqhenyeni kwenhliziyo ukuthi:

Kepha ungabheki usuku lomfowenu ngosuku lobufokazi bakhe , ungathokozi ngabantwana bak waJuda ngosuku lokuchithwa kwabo , ungaqhalazi ngosuku losizi.

Ungangeni ngesango labantu bami ngosuku lwesigemegeme sabo , ungabheki ukuhlupheka kwabo ngosuku lwesigemegeme sabo , ningabeki sandla emfuyweni yabo ngosuku lwesigemegeme sabo.

Ngesikhathi sokuthula uyakusukela izindawo ezinonileyo zesifunda , akwenze okungenziwanga ngoyise nangoyisemkhulu : uyakuhlakaza phakathi kwabo impango , nengcugco, nempahla, acebe amacebo ngezinqaba kube yisikhathi.

Ekuweni kwabo bayakusizwa ngokusizwa okuncane , bese bebambelela kubo abaningi ngokuthopha.

Inkosi iyakwenza njengentando yayo , iziphakamise, izikhulise phezu kwabo bonke onkulunkulu , ikhulume okumangalisayo ngoNkulunkulu wawonkulunkulu, ibe nenhlanhla luze luphelele ulaka, ngokuba okumisiweyo kuyakwenziwa.

Ayiyikunakekela onkulunkulu bawoyise nofiswa yisifazane , inganaki nonkulunkulu oyedwa, ngokuba iyakuzikhulisa phezu kwabo bonke.

Inkosi yakhuluma nabo ; phakathi kwabo bonke akufunyaniswanga muntu onjengoDaniyeli, noHananiya, noMishayeli, no-Azariya; base bemi ngaphambi kwenkosi.

Nokho uJehova wanamathela koyihlo , wabathanda, wakhetha inzalo yabo emva kwabo, yebo, nina ngaphezu kwabantu bonke, njenganamuhla.

nowakwenzayo kuyo impi yaseGibithe , nakuwo amahhashi abo , nakuzo izinqola zabo , nokwenza kwakhe ukuba amanzi oLwandle Olubomvu abaminzise ekunixosheni kwabo , nokubabhubhisa kukaJehova kuze kube namuhla,

Ukwakha kwabo kwasukela eMesha kwaze kwafika ngaseSefare , intaba yasempumalanga.

Ukuphuza kwabo sekuphelile ; bayafeba nokufeba ; izikhulu zabo zithandisisa ihlazo.

Njengokwanda kwabo , kanjalo b ona kimi ; udumo lwabo ngiyakulwenana ngehlazo.

Abahlubuki bashone phansi ngokuhlaba kwabo , kepha ngingumlayi wabo bonke.

Abenzi izenzo zokuba babuyele kuNkulunkulu, ngokuba umoya wobufebe uphakathi kwabo, noJehova abamazi.

Abacabangi ezinhliziyweni zabo ukuthi ngiyakhumbula konke okubi kwabo; sebezungeziwe yizenzo zabo, ziphambi kobuso bami.

Bonke bashisa njengeziko, badla abahluleli babo; onke amakhosi abo ayawa, kungekho phakathi kwabo ongibizayo.

Ziyize, umsebenzi wenkohliso ; ngesikhathi sokuhanjelwa kwabo ziyakubhubha.

Ngalokho usho kanje uJehova , uthi: Bheka, ngiyakwehlisela okubi phezu kwabo abangayikuba nakuphuma kukho ; bayakukhala kimi , kepha angiyikubezwa.

Imizi yakwaJuda nabakhileyo eJerusalema bayakukha la konkulunkulu ababashisela impepho , kepha abayikubasindisa neze ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka kwabo.

Ngalokhu ungabakhulekeli laba bantu , ungabaphakamiseli ukukhala nokuthandaza, ngokuba angiyikubezwa mhla bekhala kimi ngokuhlupheka kwabo.

nensali ayiyikuba khona kubo , ngokuba ngiyakubehlisela abantu base - Anathoti okubi ngomnyaka wokuhanjelwa kwabo.

Kepha abalalela, ababekanga izindlebe zabo, kepha bahamba, kwaba yilowo nalowo ngobulukhuni benhliziyo yakhe embi; ngase ngehlisela phezu kwabo onke amazwi alesi sivumelwano engabayala ukuwenza , kepha kabawenzanga.

Usho kanje uJehova ngabakhelwane bonke bami ababi , abalithinta ifa lami engabanika lona abantu bami u -Israyeli, uthi: Bheka, ngiyakubasiphula ezweni lakubo, ngiyisiphule indlu yakwaJuda phakathi kwabo.

Abantu abaprofetha kubo bayakuphonswa ezitaladini zaseJerusalema ngenxa yendlala nenkemba ; abayikuba namuntu wokubembela , bona nawomkabo, namadodana abo , namadodakazi abo ; ngiyakuthela okubi kwabo phezu kwabo.

Abafelokazi babo bandile kim i kunesihlabathi solwandle, ngehlisele phezu kwawonina bezinsizwa umchithi emini, ngehlisele ukwesaba nengebhe phezu kwabo.

Ngiyakuchitha kule ndawo amasu akwaJuda naseJerusalema , ngibawise ngenkemba phambi kwezitha zabo , nangesandla sabafuna ukuphila kwabo , nginike izidumbu zabo zibe ngukudla kwezinyoni zezulu nokwezilwane zomhlaba.

Ngiyakubadlisa inyama yamadodana abo neyamadodakazi abo, badle, kube yilowo nalowo inyama yomngane wakhe, ekuvinjezelweni nasekuxinekeni eziyakubaxina ngakho izitha zabo nabafuna ukuphila kwabo.

Ngiyakukhipha ukwahlulela kwami phezu kwabo ngenxa yabo bonke ububi babo, ngokuba bangihlubukile, bashisela abanye onkulunkulu impepho , bakhuleka kuyo imisebenzi yezandla zabo.

Ngasemuva, usho uJehova , ngiyakunikela uSedekiya inkosi yakwaJuda , nezinceku zakhe , nabantu abasele kulo muzi esifweni , nasenkembeni, nasendlaleni, nasesandleni sikaNebukadinesari inkosi yaseBabele , nasesandleni sezitha zabo , nasesandleni sabafuna ukuphila kwabo , abashaye ngosiko lwenkemba, angabasindisi, angabahawukeli, angabi namusa kubo.

Ngokuba izwe ligcwele iziphingi ; izwe liyadabuka ngenxa yesiqalekiso; amadlelo asehlane omile. Ukuhamba kwabo kubi, namandla abo awalungile.

Ngokuba nabaprofethi nabapristi abanaNkulunkulu ; nasendlini ngifumene okubi kwabo, usho uJehova.

Ngalokho indlela yabo iyakuba yizindawo ezibushelelezi; bayakusunduzwa ebumnyameni, bawe kubo , ngokuba ngiyakubehlisela okub i ngomnyaka wokuhanjelwa kwabo, usho uJehova.

Bheka, ngimelene nabaprofetha amaphupho amanga , usho uJehova, bawalandise, badukise abantu bami ngamanga abo nangokuwawa za kwabo; mina-ke angibathumanga nokho, angibayalanga, futhi abasizanga laba bantu, usho uJehova.

nawo onke amakhosi asenyakatho , akude naseduze , yileyo naleyo , nayo yonke imibuso yezwe esebusweni bomhlaba ; nenkosi yaseSheshaki iyakuphuza emva kwabo.

UHananiya wayesesho phambi kwabo bonke abantu , wathi: Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Kanjalo ngiyakulaphula ijoka likaNebukadinesari , inkosi yaseBabele ingakapheli iminyaka emibili entanyeni yezizwe zonke . Kepha umprofethi uJeremiya wahamba indlela yakhe.

Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Bayakubuye basho leli zwi ezweni lakwaJuda nasemizini yalo , lapho ngibuyisa ukuthunjwa kwabo, lokuthi: UJehova makakubuyise wena khaya lokulunga , ntaba yobungcwele.

Bheka, ngiyakubabuyisa ezweni lasenyakatho , ngibabuthe emikhawulweni yomhlaba, okuphakathi kwabo kuyizimpumputhe nezinyonga , abakhulelweyo nababelethayo kanyekanye , babuyele lapha beyibandla elikhulu.

nganikela incwadi yokuthenga kuBaruki indodana kaNeriya kaMahaseya ngaphambi kukaHanameli indodana kababekazi naphambi kofakazi ababelobe incwadi yokuthenga naphambi kwabo bonke abaJuda ababehlala egcekeni letilongo.

Ngamyala uBaruki phambi kwabo, ngathi:

wena owenza umusa kubo abayizinkulungwane , ophindisela ububi bawoyise esifubeni sabantwana babo emva kwabo , ogama lakho linguNkulunkulu omkhulu oyiqhawe, uJehova Sebawoti,

ngibanike inhliziyonye nendlelanye ukuba bangesabe zonke izinsuku, kube kuhle kubo nakubantwana babo emva kwabo.

Amasimu ayakuthengwa ngemali , kulotshwe encwadini , kunamatheliswe, kufakazelwe ngofakazi ezweni lakwaBenjamini , nasemaphethelweni aseJerusalema, nasemizini yakwaJuda, nasemizini yasezintabeni, nasemizini yasehlanzeni, nasemizini yaseningizimu, ngokuba ngiyakukubuyisa ukuthunjwa kwabo, usho uJehova.

Awunakanga yini abakukhulumileyo laba bantu , bethi: Imindeni yomibili ayikhethayo uyilahlile na? Base bebadelela abantu bami , baze bangabe besaba yisizwe ngaphambi kwabo.

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

yebo, ngiyakubanikela esandleni sezitha zabo nasesandleni sabafuna ukuphila kwabo , izidumbu zabo zibe ngukudla kwezinyoni zezulu nokwezilwane zomhlaba.

USedekiya, inkosi yakwaJuda, nezikhulu zakhe, ngiyakubanikela esandleni sezitha zabo , nasesandleni sabafuna ukuphila kwabo , nasesandleni sempi yenkosi yaseBabele, asebenyukile kini.

Ngalokho usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu Sebawoti , uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli, uthi: Bheka, ngiyakwehlisela phezu kukaJuda naphezu kwabo bonke abakhileyo eJerusalema konke okubi engikukhulume kubo , ngokuba ngikhulumile kubo kepha kabalalelanga, ngibabizile kepha kabaphendulanga.

Ngiyakumjezisa yena nenzalo yak he nezinceku zakhe ngokona kwabo , ngehlisele phezu kwabo , naphezu kwabakhileyo eJerusalema , naphezu kwabantu bakwaJuda konke okubi engikukhulume ngabo , bengalalelanga kodwa.

Mhlawumbe ukunxusa kwabo kuyakufika phambi kukaJehova, babuye, kube yilowo nalowo endleleni yakhe embi , ngokuba inkulu intukuthel o nokufutheka akukhulumileyo uJehova ngalaba bantu.

Ngokuba noma benichithile impi yonke yamaKaledi elwa nani , kwaze kwasala abantu abagwaziweyo bodwa phakathi kwabo , bona bebeyakuvuka, kube yilowo nalowo etendeni lakhe, bawushise lo muzi ngomlilo.

Izwi elafika kuJeremiya livela kuJehova , uNebuzaradani induna yabalindi esemvumele ukuba asuke eRama ngokumthatha eboshiwe ngamaketanga phakathi kwabo b onke abathunjwa baseJerusalema nakwaJuda ababeyakuthunjelwa eBabele.

Futhi lapho bonke abaJuda ababekwaMowabi , naphakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Amoni, nakwa-Edomi, nababesemazweni onke sebezwile ukuthi inkosi yaseBabele ishiyile insali kwa Juda nokuthi ibeke phezu kwabo uGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikamu kaShafani ukuba abe ngumbusi phezu kwabo,

Kepha kwafunyanwa amadoda ayishumi phakathi kwabo asho ku -Ishmayeli, athi: Ungasibulali, ngokuba sinokolweni , nebhali, namafutha, nezinyosi okubekelelwe endle. Wayesebayeka, akababulalanga kanye nabafowabo.

Kuyakuba njalo bonke abantu ababhekisa ubuso babo ukuya eGibithe ukuba bagogobale khona ; bayakufa ngenkemba , nangendlala, nangesifo, kungabikho kubo oyakusala , aphunyuke ebubini engiyakubehlisela phezu kwabo.

Abaqashwa balo phakathi kwalo banjengamathole akhuluphalisiweyo; nabo babuyele emuva, babaleka kanyekanye, abemanga, ngokuba usuku lwengozi yabo lubehlele, isikhathi sokuhanjelwa kwabo.

ngibanikele esandleni sabafuna ukuphila kwabo , nasesandleni sikaNebukadinesari, inkosi yaseBabele , nasesandleni sezinceku zakhe , andukuba lakhiwe njengasezinsukwini zasendulo, usho uJehova.

Obalekela ukwesaba uyakuwela emgodini , okhuphuka emgodini uyakubanjwa ogibeni , ngokuba ngiyakw ehlisela phezu kwabo , phezu kukaMowabi, umnyaka wokujeziswa kwabo, usho uJehova.

Bheka, njengengonyama ekhuphuka ezihlahleni zaseJordani, iye endaweni eyinqaba, ngiyakubazuma, ngibagijimise, basuke kuyo ; nobani okhethwayo ngiyakumbeka phezu kwabo , ngokuba ngubani onjengami , ngubani onginqumelayo, ngumuphi umalusi oyakuma phambi kwami, na?

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.

Ngo-Edoni. Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uthi: Akusekho ukuhlakanipha eThemani na ? Amasu aphelile kwabaqondileyo , ukuhlakanipha kwabo kunyamalele, na?

Khuphukela ezweni laseMeratayimi , kulona nakwabakhileyo ePhekodi , uchithe, uqede nya emva kwabo , usho uJehova , wenze konke engikuyale ngakho.

Bheka, njengengonyama ekhuphuka ezihlahleni zaseJordani, iye endaweni eyinqaba, ngiyakubazuma, ngibagijimise, basuke kuyo ; nobani okhethwayo ngiyakumbeka phezu kwabo , ngokuba ngubani onjengami , ngubani onginqumelayo, ngumuphi umalusi oyakuma phambi kwami, na?

Ziyize, zingumsebenzi we nkohliso; ngesikhathi sokuhanjelwa kwabo ziyakubhubha.

Ngiyakuphindisela iBabele nabo bonke abakhileyo eKalideya konke okubi kwabo abakwenzile eSiyoni emehlweni enu, usho uJehova.

Abaprofethi baprofetha amanga , abapristi babusa eceleni kwabo ; abantu bami bayakuthanda kanjalo, kepha niyakwenze njani ekupheleni na?

Ngalokho ingonyama yasehlathini iyakubashaya, babhujiswe yimpisi yasehlane, ingwe iyiqamekele imizi yabo , badatshulwe bonke abaphuma kuyo, ngokuba iziphambeko zabo ziningi, nokuhlehla kwabo kwandile.

Ngalokho zwanini nina zizwe , wazi wena bandl a ukuthi yintoni ephakathi kwabo.

Nonogolantethe emkhathin i uyazazi izikhathi zakhe ezimisiweyo , ihobhe, nenkonjane, nonohemu bagcina isikhathi sokufika kwabo, kepha abantu bami abazazi izahlulelo zikaJehova.

UJehova wathi: Ngokuba bewushiyile umthetho wami engawubeka phambi kwabo, bengalilalelanga izwi lami, bengahambanga ngalo,

Ngiyakubahlakazela ezizweni abangazazanga bona nawoyise , ngithume emva kwabo inkemba, ngize ngibaqede.

Bheka, izinsuku ziyeza , usho uJehova , lapho ngiyakuhambela bonke abasokileyo ekungasokini kwabo,

Impela kukhona abangiklolodelayo, iso lami lisekucunuleni kwabo.

Awabo amehlo mawabone ukuchithwa kwabo , bona baphuze ukufutheka kukaSomandla.

Banokujabula kuni endl ini yabo emva kwabo , lapho umumo wezinyanga zabo usunqunyiwe, na?

Inzalo yabo iyema phambi kwabo kanye nabo , nabantwana babo phambi kwamehlo abo.

Izindlu zabo zinokuthula , azinangebhe; uswazi lukaNkulunkulu aluphezu kwabo.

Bheka, njengezimbongolo ehlane bayaphumela emisebenzini yabo befunisisa ukudla; ihlane lingukudla kwabo abakunika abantwana babo.

Emva kwamazwi ami ababe besakhuluma ; amazwi ami aconsela phezu kwabo.

Bayakha imifino kasawoti ezihlahleni ; izimpande zezinwele zingukudla kwabo.

Bayaxoshwa phakathi kwabantu ; bamemeza emva kwabo njengasemva kwamasela.

khona uyavula izindlebe zabantu, abeke uphawu ekufundisweni kwabo,

Bafa besebasha, ukuphila kwabo kube njengokwezifebe zethempeli.

Ababi sebenqatshelwe ukukhanya kwabo, nengalo ephakemeyo yaphuliwe.

Izinkanyezi zokuhwelela kwabo maziphenduke ubumnyama ; mabulinde ukukhanya kungabikho, bungaboni izinkophe zokusa,

Ubona konke okuphakemeyo ; uyinkosi phezu kwabo bonke abantwana bokuzikhukhumeza.

Intambo yetende labo ayisishulwa yini phakathi kwabo, bafe bengazelele, na?

abakuvuna kwabo kudliwa ngabalambileyo, bakukhipha nasemeveni ; abanxanelayo basezela impahla yabo.

Uma iseluhlaza, ingakakhiwa, iyabuna phambi kwabo bonke utshani.

Kwathi lapho u -Adoni Sedeki inkosi yaseJerusalema esezwile ukuthi uJoshuwa uthathile i -Ayi, waliqeda nya njengalokho ebenzile kulo iJeriko nenkosi yalo , wayenze njalo kulo i -Ayi nenkosi yalo no kuthi abakhileyo eGibeyoni benzile ukuthula no-Israyeli, baba phakathi kwabo,

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.

Ngokuba uMose wayezinikile izizwe ezimbili nenxenye yesizwe ifa ngaphesheya kweJordani, kepha amaLevi akawanikanga ifa phakathi kwabo.

Yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli yabuthana eShilo , yamisa khona itende lokuhlangana; izwe lanqotshwa phambi kwabo.

Base beqeda ukwabelana izwe libe yifa ngemikhawulo yalo ; abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bamnika uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni ifa phakathi kwabo;

Obalekelayo komunye waleyo mizi uyakuma ngasesikhaleni sesango lomuzi, akhulume indaba yakhe ezindlebeni zamalunga alowo muzi , angene naye emzini, amuphe indawo ukuba ahlale phakathi kwabo.

Leyo yayiyimizi emis elwe bonke abantwana bakwa -Israyeli nabafokazi ababegogobele phakathi kwabo , ukuze yilowo nalowo obulele umuntu ngesiphosiso abaleke le khona , angafi ngesandla somphindiseli wegazi , aze eme phambi kwenhlangano.

UJehova wabanika ukuphumula nxazonke njengakho konke ayekufungile koyise; kwakungekho muntu kuzo zonke izitha zabo owema phambi kwabo ; uJehova wanikela zonke izitha zabo esandleni sabo.

ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu nguye owasikhuphula thina nawobaba ezweni laseGibithe, indlu yobugqila, nowazenza lezo zibonakaliso emehlweni ethu, wasilondoloza endleleni yonke esahamba ngayo, naphakathi kwabo bonke abantu esadlula phakathi kwabo.

Lapho bekhala kuJehova , wabeka ubumnyama phakathi kwenu nabaseGibithe, waluhambisa ulwandle phezu kwabo , wabasibekela; amehlo enu abona engakwenzayo eGibithe; nahlala ehlane izinsuku eziningi.

Ngokuba bonke abantu abaphuma babesokiwe , kepha bonke abant u abazalwa ehlane ngasendleleni ekuphumeni kwabo eGibithe babengabasokanga.

Abapristi abayisikhombisa , bethwele amacilongo ayisikhombisa ejubili phambi komphongolo kaJehova , bahamba njalo bewabetha amacilongo ; abahlomileyo bahamba phambi kwabo , nesigaba sasemuva sawulandela umphongolo kaJehova, bebetha amacilongo besahamba.

UJoshuwa nabo bonke abakwa -Israyeli benza kungathi bahluliwe phambi kwabo, babaleka ngendlela eya ehlane.

Lapho amadoda ase-Ayi ebheka emva kwabo, abona, bheka, umusi womuzi wenyukela ngasezulwini ; ayengenamandla ukubaleka ngalapha noma ngalapha, lapho abantu ababebalekele ngasehlane sebephendukela ababaxoshayo.

Akwabakho zwi kukho konke akuyalayo uMose , angalifundanga uJoshuwa phambi kwebandla lonke lakwa-Israyeli, nabesifazane, nabantwana, nabafokazi ababehamba phakathi kwabo.

Mina nabantu bonke abanami siyakusondela emzini ; kuyakuthi lapho bephuma ukusihlasela njengakuqala, sibaleke phambi kwabo.

Bayakuphuma, basilandele, size sibasuse emzini, ngokuba bayakusho ukuthi: Babaleka phambi kwethu njengakuqala, bese sibaleka phambi kwabo;

Kwathi emva kwezinsuku ezintathu sebesenzile isivumelwano nabo, bezwa ukuthi bangabakhelwane babo nokuthi bahlala phakathi kwabo.

Umhlaba uyazamazama phambi kwabo, amazulu ayathuthumela ; ilanga nenyanga kuphenduka ubumnyama, nezinkanyezi zisusa ukukhanya kwazo.

usuku lobumnyama nolwesigayegaye , usuku lwamafu nolobumnyama obukhulu, njengokusa kwenekwe ezintabeni , abantu abaningi abanamandl a abangazange babe ngabanjalo kwasendulo , nabangasoze baba ngabanjalo emva kwabo kuze kube naseminyakeni yezizukulwane ngezizukulwane.

Phambi kwabo kuyadla umlilo , nasemva kwabo kushisa ilangabi ; izwe liphambi kwabo njengensimu yase -Edene, nangasemva kwabo kuyihlane lencithakalo, akukho okubabalekelayo.

Phambi kwabo abantu bayathuthumela, bonke ubuso buyaphaphatheka.

Kanjalo niyakwahlukanisa abantwana bakwa -Israyeli nokungcola kwabo ukuba bangafi ekungcoleni kwabo , lapho bengcolisa itabernakele lami eliphakathi kwabo.

enzele indawo engcwele ukubuyisana ngenxa yokungcola kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli nangenxa yeziphambeko zabo ezonweni zabo zonke ; akenzele njalo netende lokuhlangana elihlezi nabo phakathi kokungcola kwabo.

Yilowo nalowo muntu wendlu yakwa -Israyeli noma owabafokazi abagogobeleyo phakathi kwabo odla igazi noma yiliphi, ngiyakumisa ubuso bami bumelane nalowo muntu odla igazi, ngimnqume kubantu bakubo.

Yilowo nalowo muntu wabantwana bakwa -Israyeli noma owabafokazi abagogobeleyo phakathi kwabo ozingela, abambe isilwane noma inyoni edliwayo, makachithe igazi layo, alisibekele ngothuli.

Wothi kubo : Yilowo nalowo muntu wendlu yakwa -Israyeli noma owabafokazi abagogobeleyo phakathi kwabo onikela ngomnikelo wokushiswa noma ngomhlatshelo,

Umuntu olala nomkayise wambulile ubunqunu bukayise ; bobabili bobulawa nokubulawa, igazi labo libe phezu kwabo.

Uma umuntu elala nomalokazana wakhe , bobabili bobulawa nokubulawa; benzile ichilo; igazi labo malibe phezu kwabo.

Uma indoda ilala nowesilisa njenganowesifazane , bobabili benzile isinengiso; bobulawa nokubulawa, igazi labo libe phezu kwabo.

Uma owesifazane esondela esilwaneni , alale n aso, wobulala owesifazane nesilwane; bobulawa nokubulawa, igazi labo libe phezu kwabo.

Owesilisa noma owesifazane , elikubo idlozi, noma umthakathi bobulawa nokubulawa, bakhandwe ngamatshe, igazi labo libe phezu kwabo.

Umfohli ukhuphuka ngaphambi kwabo ; sebefohlile, badlulela esangweni, baphuma ngalo; inkosi yabo idlulile phambi kwabo, noJehova usesihlokweni sabo.

Niyaxosha abesifazane babantu bami ezindlini zokuthokoza kwabo , nisusa ezinganeni zabo ubukhosi bami kuze kube phakade.

Khona bayakukhala kuJehova , kepha akayikubaphendula; uyakusitheza ubuso bakhe kubo ngaleso sikhathi ngenxa yokwenza kwabo izenzo zabo zibe zimbi.

Ngalokho ubusuku buyakunehlela ukuze ningabi nambono , kuhlwe kini , ningabe nisabhula ; ilanga liyakushonela abaprofethi , usuku lube mnyama phezu kwabo.

ngenze abaqhugayo babe yinsali , abadediselwe kude babe yisizwe esinamandla; uJehova uyakubusa phezu kwabo entabeni yaseSiyoni kusukela manje kuze kube phakade.

nabafowabo oShemaya , no-Azareli, noMilalayi, noGilalayi, noMahayi, noNethaneli, noJuda, noHanani, bephethe izinto zokubethwa zikaDa vide, umuntu kaNkulunkulu; u-Ezra, umbhali, wayengaphambi kwabo.

Eceleni kwabo kwalungisa uRefaya indodan a kaHure , umbusi wenxenye yesifunda saseJerusalema.

Abamelene nathi bathi : Abayikwazi, abayikubona s ize sifike phakathi kwabo, sibabulale, sivimbe umsebenzi.

Kwathi lapho abaJuda ababehlala eceleni kwabo sebefika , bathi kithi kayishumi, bevela ezindaweni zonke: Buyelani kithi.

Ngathukuthela kakhulu lapho ngizwa ukukhala kwabo nalawo mazwi.

Labo bafuna ukubhalwa kwabo phakathi kwababhaliweyo ngezizukulwane, kepha akufunya nwanga; ngalokho kwathiwa bangcolile , bakhishwa ebupristini.

Ngosuku lwamashumi amabili nane lwa leyo nyanga abantwana bakwa- Israyeli babuthana , bazila ukudla benezindwangu zamasaka nothuli phezu kwabo.

Wahlukanisa ulwandle phambi kwabo , badabula phakathi kolwandle emhlabathini owomileyo ; nababaxoshayo wabaphonsa otweni njengetshe emanzini anamandla.

wabanika isinkwa esivela ezulwini ngokulamba kwabo , wabakhiphela amanzi edwaleni ngokoma kwabo , wabayala ukuba bangene ukulidla izwe owaphakamisa ngalo isandla sakho ukuba ubanike lona.

benqaba ukulalela , abakhumbulanga izimangaliso zakho owazenza phakathi kwabo , kepha benza lukhuni izi ntamo zabo , nangokuhlubuka kwabo bamisa induna ukuba babuyele ebugqileni babo ; kodwa wena unguNkulunkulu othethelelayo , onomusa nesihe ; wephuza u kuthukuthela, ugcwele isihawu; kawubashiyanga.

nokho wena ngomusa wakho omkhulu awubashiyanga ehlane ; insika yefu ayisukanga phezu kwabo emini ukubahola endleleni , nensika yomlilo ebusuku ukubakhanyisela endleleni ababeyakuhamba ngayo.

Wabanika nomoya wakho omuhle ukubafundisa; awugodlanga imana lakho emilonyeni yabo, wabanika amanzi ngokoma kwabo.

Abantwana bangena -ke, balidla izwe , wahlula phambi kwabo abakhe ezweni, amaKhanani, wabanikela ezandleni zabo , kanye namakhosi abo , nabantu bezwe, ukuba benze kubo njengokuthanda kwabo.

Wawusubanikela esandleni sezitha zabo ezabahlupha ; ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka kwabo sebekhala kuwe, wena wabezwa usezulwini, nangomusa wakho omkhulu wabanika abasindisi ababasindisa esandleni sezitha zabo.

Kepha sebephumulile , babuye benza okubi ebusweni bakho ; wawusubashiya esandleni sezitha zabo , zaze zabusa phezu kwabo ; kodwa lapho bebuye bekhala kuwe , wena wabezwa usezulwini , wabophula kaningi ngomusa wakho omkhulu,

Wabona ukuhlupheka kwawobaba eGibithe , wezwa ukukhala kwabo ngaseLwandle Olubomvu;

Basuka entabeni kaJehova , bahamba ibanga lezinsuku ezintathu; umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova wahamba phambi kwabo ibanga lezinsuku ezintathu ukubafunela indawo yokuphumula.

Ifu likaJehova laliphezu kwabo emini, lapho besuka ekamu. Umkhuleko kaMose

Nanxa nihlaba umkhosi ngokwesibili , amakamu asohlangothini lwaseningizimu ayakusuka; bayakuhlaba umkhosi ekusukeni kwabo.

Kwathi abantu bakhonona , kwabakubi ezindlebeni zikaJehova; esekuzwile uJehova, yavutha intukuthelo yakhe ; umlilo kaJehova washa phakathi kwabo, wabaqeda abasemkhawulweni wekamu.

Wayesethi uMose : Abantu engiphakathi kwabo bayizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu ayisithupha abayimigundatshani; wena-ke uthi : Ngiyakubanika inyama ukuba badle inyanga epheleleyo.

UMose wathi kubo : Unomhawu ngenxa yami na ? Sengathi bonke abantu bakaJehova bangaba ngabaprofethi , uJehova abeke uMoya wakhe phezu kwabo.

Igama laleyo ndawo laqanjwa ngokuthi iThabe hera, ngokuba umlilo kaJehova washa phakathi kwabo.

Ingxubevange eyayiphakathi kwabo yaqala ukufisa nokufisa ; nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli babuye bakhala , bathi: Ngubani oyakusipha inyama ukuba sidle na?

Thuma wena abantu ukuba bahlole izwe laseKhanani engibanika lona abantwana bakwa -Israyeli; uthume umuntu waleso naleso sizwe sawoyise , kube yilowo nalowo abe yinduna phakathi kwabo.

UJehova wayesekhuluma kuMose , wathi: Koze kube nini laba bantu bengidelela na ? Koze kube nini bengakholwa yimi ngezibonakaliso z onke engizenzile phakathi kwabo na?

UMose wathi kuJehova : Khona abaseGibithe bayakukuzwa , ngokuba wakhuphula laba bantu ngamandla akho phakathi kwabo,

babatshele abakhe kuleli zwe ; bezwile ukuthi wena Jehova uphakathi kwalaba bantu, babonane nawe Jehova ubuso nobuso ; ifu lakho limi phezu kwabo, wena uhamba phambi kwabo usensikeni yefu emini nasensikeni yomlilo ebusuku.

Kodwa ningahlubuki kuJehova, futhi ningesabi abantu balelo zwe ; ngokuba bayisinkwa kithi ; umthunzi wabo usukile phezu kwabo , kodwa uJehova unathi; ningabesabi.

Niyakuba nomthetho munye kowenza kungengamabomu , nakowokuzalwa ekhaya phakathi kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli nakumfokazi ogogobeleyo phakathi kwabo.

Kwathi eseqedile onke lawo mazwi, umhlaba ophansi kwabo waqhekezeka;

Bonke abakwa -Israyeli ababebazungeza babaleka ngokukhala kwabo , ngokuba bathi: Funa umhlaba usigwinye nathi.

UJehova wathi kuMose : Buyisa intonga ka -Aroni ngaphambi kobufakazi , igcinwe ibe luphawu kubahlubuki , ukuze uqede ukukhonona kwabo ngami ukuba bangafi.

UJehova wathi ku -Aroni: Awuyikuba nafa ezweni lakubo , futhi ungabi nasabelo phakathi kwabo ; mina ngiyisabelo sakho nefa lakho phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Obutha umlotha wesithole uyakuhlanza izingubo zakhe , abe ngongcolile kuze kuhlwe ; kuyakuba yisimiso esiphakade kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli nakumfokazi ogogobeleyo phakathi kwabo.

UJehova wakhuluma kuMose ehlane laseSinayi etendeni lokuhlangana ngolokuqala lwenyanga yesibili ngomnyaka wesibili emva kokuphuma kwabo eGibithe, wathi:

Kepha amaLevi ngokwesizwe sawoyise awabalwanga phakathi kwabo.

Akabonanga ingozi kuJakobe , akabukanga nankathazo kwa -Israyeli. UJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe unaye, nesenanelo senkosi siphakathi kwabo.

UFinehasi ka -Eleyazare ka -Aroni umpristi ukhalimile intukuthelo yami kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli, ngokuba wayehawuka ngomhawu wami phakathi kwabo, ukuze ngingaqothuli abantwana bakwa -Israyeli ngomhawu wami.

ongaphuma phambi kwabo, angene phambi kwabo, abakhiphe, abangenise, ukuze inhlangano kaJehova ingabi njengezimvu ezingenamalusi.

Ngokuba ekukhuphukeni kwabo ukuya esiGodini sase -Eshikoli balibona izwe, baqeda inhliziyo yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba bangangeni ezweni uJehova abanike lona.

UMose waloba ngokuhamba kwabo ngama banga abo ngesiyalezo sikaJehova; nanka amabanga abo njengokuhamba kwabo.

Kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, nakumfokazi, nakogogobeleyo phakathi kwabo lemizi iyakuba ngeyokuphephela ukuba yilowo nalowo obulala umuntu kungengamabomu abalekele khona. Imithetho yababulali

nezilenge zegceke, neveli lomnyango wesango legceke elingasetabernakele nangase-altare nxazonke , nezintambo zakho , nezinto zonke zokukhonza kwabo; nakho konke okwenzelwa zona bayakukwenza.

Ngalolo suku uJe hova uyakulondoloza abakhileyo eJerusalema ; okhubekayo phakathi kwabo ngalolo suku uyakuba njengoDavide , indlu kaDavide ibe njengoNkulunkulu, njengengelosi kaJehova ngaphambi kwabo.

Kuyakuthi ngalolo suku kube phakathi kwabo isidumo esikhulu esivela kuJehova, babambe, kube yilowo nalowo isandla somakhelwane wakhe , isandla sakhe sivukele isandla somakhelwane wakhe.

Kuyakuthi abangakhuphuki emindenini yomhlaba , baye eJerusalema ukukhuleka eNkosini uJehova Sebawoti, phezu kwabo kungabi yimvula.

Bhekani, ngiyakuqhweba ngesandla phezu kwabo , babe yimpango yababebakhonza, nazi ukuthi nguJehova Sebawoti ongithumileyo.

Yebo, yena uyakulakha ithempel i likaJehova , athwale ubukhosi , ahlale, abuse esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi , kube khona nompristi esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi, kube khona ukululekana ngokuthula phakathi kwabo bobabili.

Ngiyakubahlakazela phakathi kwezizwe zonke abangazazanga . Izwe selichithekile emva kwabo , ukuze kungabikho muntu odlulayo nobuyayo , ngokuba benza izwe elihle laba yincithakalo.

UJehova abesebonakala phezu kwabo , umcibisholo wakhe uphume njengonyazi; iNkosi uJehova iyakubetha icilongo , ihambe ngezivunguvungu zaseningizimu.

Ngiyakwelula isandla sami phezu kukaJud a naphezu kwabo bonke abakhileyo eJerusalema , nginqume insali kaBali kule ndawo , negama labapristi bezithixo kanye nabapristi,

Lokhu kuyakuba sesikhundleni sokuzipha kamisa kwabo , ngokuba bathukile, bazikhulisela abantu bakaJehova Sebawoti.

UJehova uyakwesabeka phezu kwabo , ngokuba uyakuzacisa bonke onkulunkulu bomhlaba , bakhuleke kuye , kube yilow o nalowo endaweni yakhe, zonke iziqhingi zezizwe.

Ugu luyakuba ngolwensali yendlu yakwaJuda , yaluse kulo ; ezindlini zase - Ashikeloni bayakubuthisa kusihlwa , ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wabo uyakubahambela, abuyise ukuthunjwa kwabo.

Ngalokho, ngilindeleni, usho uJehova , kuze kube lusuku engivuka ngalo ukuba ngiphange , ngokuba kuyisinqumo sami ukubutha izizwe ukuba ngiqoqe imibuso , ukuze ngithulule phezu kwabo intukuthelo yami , lonke ulaka lwami oluvuthayo , ngokuba wonke umhlaba uyakudliwa ngumlilo womhawu wami.

kwakungekho ukuphela kwabantu bonke , bonke ayephambi kwabo ; nokho abafika emuva abayikuthokoza ngaye . Impela nalokho kuyize nokufuna umoya.

nokusafunwa ngumphefumulo wami , ngingakakufumani kodwa : indoda inye phakathi kwenkulungwane ngiyifumene , kepha owesifazane phakathi kwabo bonke labo angimfumananga.

Ngokuba abaphilayo bayazi ukuthi bayakufa , kepha abafileyo abazi lutho , futhi abasenawo umvuzo, ngokuba ukukhunjulwa kwabo sekukhohlakele.

Uthando lwabo , nokuzonda kwabo , nomhawu wabo sekuphel ile, futhi abasenaso isabelo nanini kukho konke okwenziwa phansi kwelanga.
