wamyala ngale nto yokuthi akayikulandela abanye onkulunkulu ; kepha akagcinanga lokho uJehova amyale ngakho.

abezizwe uJehova ayeshilo ngabo kwabakwa-Israyeli ukuthi: Aniyikungena kubo, nabo bangangeni kini, ngokuba impela bayakuziphambukisa izinhliziyo zenu, zize zilandele onkulunkulu babo . Kulabo uSolomoni wanamathela ngothando.

Kwathi uSolomoni esemdala , omkakhe bayiphambukisa inhliziyo yakhe ukuba ilandele abanye onkulunkulu ; inhliziyo yakhe yayingekho kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe ngokuphelelyo njengenhliziyo kaDavide uyise.

Wabenzela kanjalo bonke omkakhe bezizwe abashisa impepho , bahlabela onkulunkulu babo.

Inkosi isithathe isiluleko , yenza amathole amabili egolide , yathi kubo : Sekwanele ukuba nikhuphukele eJerusalema ; bheka onkulunkulu bakho , Israyeli, abakukhuphula ezweni laseGibithe.

kodwa wenzile okubi kunabo bonke ababe phambi kwakho , wahamba wazenzela abanye onkulunkulu nezithombe ezibunjiweyo ukungivusa u kuba ngithukuthele, wangilahla nyovane,

U-Izebeli wayesethuma isithunywa ku -Eliya ngokuthi : Mabenze njalo kimi onkulunkulu, benezele futhi , uma ngingakwenzi wena ube njengomunye wabo ngalesi sikhathi kusasa.

UBeni Hadadi wayesethumela kuye , wathi: Onkulunkulu mabenze njalo kimi, benezele futhi, uma uthuli lwaseSamariya luyakwanela abantu bonke abasezinyathelweni zami ukuba babe nokhweshe.

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

Bayakuphendula ngokuthi : Kungokuba bamshiya uJehova uNkulunkulu wabo owakhipha oyise ezweni laseGibithe , banamathela kwabanye onkulunkulu, bakhuleka kubo , babakhonza; ngalokho uJehova ubehl isele konke lokho okubi. UHiramu uphiwa imizi

Ashiya khona onkulunkulu bawo; uDavide wathi mabashiswe ngomlilo.

Ngokuba mkhulu uJehova , udumisekile kakhulu; uyesabeka phezu kwabo bonke onkulunkulu.

Ngokuba bonke onkulunkulu babezizwe bayizithombe , kepha uJehova walenza izulu.

Kepha baphambuka kuNkulunkulu wawoyise , balandela ngokuphinga onkulunkulu babantu balelo zwe, uNkulunkulu abachithayo phambi kwabo.

Ngokuba noma kukhona okuthiwa onkulunkulu, nokuba kusezulwini nokuba kusemhlabeni, njengokuba bakhona onkulunkulu abaningi namakhosi amaningi,

Ngalokho mayizwe inkosi yami , inkosi, amazwi enceku yayo . Uma nguJehova okuncokoloza ngami , makamukele umnikelo , kepha uma kungabantwana babantu , mabaqalekiswe phambi kukaJehova , ngokuba bangixoshile namuhla ukuba ngingazihlanganisi nefa likaJehova , bethi: Hamba ukhonze abanye onkulunkulu.

Maye kithina ! Ngubani oyakusophula esandleni salaba onkulunkulu abanamandla na ? Yilaba onkulunkulu abashaya abaseGibithe nga zo zonke izifo ehlane.

USamuweli wakhuluma kuyo yonke indlu ka -Israyeli, wathi: Uma nibuyela kuJehova ngayo yonke inhliziyo yenu, susani kini onkulunkulu babezizwe no- Ashitaroti, nibhekise izinhliziyo zenu kuJehova , nimkhonze yena yedwa ; uyakunophula esandleni samaFilisti.

Njengemisebenzi yonke abayenzileyo , kusukela osukwini engabakhuphula ngalo eGibithe kuze kube namuhla , bangishiya bekhonza abanye onkulunkulu, benze njalo nakuwe.

Kodwa zonke izizwe zazenzela onkulunkulu bazo , zababeka ezindlini zezindawo eziphakemeyo ezazenziwe ngama Samariya, kwaba yileso naleso sizwe emizini esasihlezi kuyo.

ama-Avi enza oNibihazi noTharithaki , amaSefarivayimi ashisa abantwana bawo ngomlilo ko-Adirameleki no -Anameleki, onkulunkulu bamaSefarivayimi.

uJehova enza nabo isivumelwano, wabayala wathi: Aniyikwesaba abanye onkulunkulu, ningakhothameli kubo, ningabakhonzi, ningabahlabeli;

izimiso nezimemezelo nomthetho nemiyalo anilobela khona yikho eniyakukugcina ukuba nikwenze; ningesabi abanye onkulunkulu;

aniyikukhohlwa isivumelwano engisenzile nani , ningesabi abanye onkulunkulu;

Kwaba njalo , ngokuba abantwana bakwa -Israyeli babonile kuJehova uNkulunkulu wabo owabakhuphula ezweni laseGibithe esandleni sikaFaro inkosi yaseGibithe, besaba abanye onkulunkulu,

Abanye onkulunkulu bezizwe bake bophula nokophula yini izwe lakubo esandleni senkosi yase-Asiriya na?

Baphi onkulunkulu baseHamati nase -Aripadi na ? Baphi onkulunkulu baseSefarivayimi, nabaseHena, nabase-Iva, na? Balophulile iSamariya esandleni sami na?

Ngobani phakathi kwabo bonke onkulunkulu bamazwe abophule izwe lakubo esandleni sami ukuba uJehova alophule iJerusalema esandleni sami na?

Onkulunkulu balezo zizwe ezachithwa ngobaba , iGozani, neHarana, neResefi, nabantwana base-Edene abaseThelasari, bazophula na?

alahlile onkulunkulu bawo emlilweni , ngokuba babengesibo onkulunkulu , babe ngumsebenzi wezandla zomuntu kuphela , umuthi namatshe; ngalokho abachithile.

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

Wayesethi uNahamani: Uma kunjalo , inceku yakho mayinikwe umthwalo weminyuzi emibili womhlabathi , ngokuba inceku yakho ayisayikunikela ngomnikelo wokushiswa nomhlatshelo kwabanye onkulunkulu , kuJehova kuphela.

Anixoshanga yini abapristi bakaJehova , amadodana ka -Aroni namaLev i, nazenzela abapristi ngendlela yabantu bezizwe ; bonke abafika ukwahlukaniselwa, bephethe iduna nezinqama eziyisikhombisa , bangaba ngabapristi babangesibo onkulunkulu.

Kwathi u -Amasiya esebuyile ekubulaleni abakwa -Edomi, waletha onkulunkulu babantwana baseSeyiri, wabamisa babe ngonkulunkulu bakhe , wakhothama phambi kwabo, wabashisela impepho.

Ngalokho intukuthelo kaJehova yamvuthela u -Amasiya, wathuma umprofethi kuye owathi kuye : Ufuneleni onkulunkulu babantu abangophulanga abantu babo esandleni sakho na?

Kepha u-Amasiya akalalelanga , ngokuba kwavela kuNkulunkulu ukuba abanikele esandleni sezitha zabo , ngokuba babefunile onkulunkulu bakwa - Edomi.

Wahlabela onkulunkulu baseDamaseku ababemshayile , wathi: Ngokuba onkulunkulu bamakhosi ase -Aramu bawasiza , ngiyakubahlabela ukuba bangisize nami. Kepha baba yisikhubekiso kuye nakuye wonke u-Israyeli.

Nakuyo yonke imizi yakwaJuda , imizi ngemizi , wenza izindawo eziphakemeyo zokuba ashisele abanye onkulunkulu impepho , wamcunula uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise.

Indlu engiyakuyakha iyakuba nkulu , ngokuba mkhulu uNkulunkulu wethu phezu kwabo bonke onkulunkulu.

Anazi yini ukuthi mina nawobaba senzeni kubo bonke abezizwe na ? Onkulunkulu babezizwe babe namandla yini nakanjani okophula izwe labo esandleni sami na?

Wayelobe nencwadi yokumhlambalaza uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, wakhuluma okuphambene naye, wathi: Njengalokho onkulunkulu babezizwe bengabophulanga abantu babo esandleni sami , kanjalo uNkulunkulu kaHezekiya akayikubophula abantu bakhe esandleni sami.

Wasusa onkulunkulu babezizwe nesithombe endlini kaJehova , nawo onke ama-altare ayewakhile entabeni yendlu kaJehova naseJerusalema , wakulahla ngaphandle komuzi.

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

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

Bayakuphendula bathi : Kungokuba bamshiya uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise owabakhipha ezweni laseGibithe , babambelela kwabanye onkulunkulu, bakhuleka kubo, babakhonza; ngalokho ubehlisele konke lokho okubi.

Yisiphi isizwe nesisodwa emhlabeni esinjengabantu bakho u -Israyeli, uNkulunkulu ayakuzihlengela bona ukuba babe ngabantu bakhe , azenzele igama, anenzele nina izinto ezinkulu, alenzele izwe lakini izinto ezesabekayo phambi kwabantu bakho owazihlengela bona eGibithe ezizweni nakubo onkulunkulu bazo, na?

Nokho ningishiyile , nakhonza abanye onkulunkulu ; ngalokho angisayikunisindisa.

Base besusa onkulunkulu babezizwe phakathi kwabo , bamkhonza uJehova; umphefumulo wakhe wakhathazeka ngokuhlupheka kwabakwa-Israyeli.

Wathi: Nithathile onkulunkulu bami engabenzayo , nompristi, namuka; ngisenani na? Nisholoni kimi ukuthi: Yini na?

bamshiya uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise owabakhipha ezweni laseGibithe, balandela abanye onkulunkulu , onkulunkulu babantu ababebazungeza, babakhothamela, bamcunula uJehova.

Nabahluleli ababalalelanga, ngokuba baya baphinga nabanye onkulunkulu, babakhothamela; baphambuka masinyane endleleni abahamba ngayo oyise , belalela imiyalo kaJehova; bona abenzanga njalo. Isimo sesikhathi sabahluleli

Kepha kwathi ekufeni komahluleli babuyela emuva , bona kakhulu kunawoyise, ngokulandela abanye onkulunkulu ukuba ba bakhonze, babakhothamele; abayekanga izenzo zabo nendlela yabo yenkani.

Ngalokho ngithi manje : Angiyikubaxosha phambi kwenu , kepha bayakuba sezinhlangothini zenu, onkulunkulu babo babe lugibe kini.

bathatha amadodakazi awo aba ngomkabo , banika amadodana awo amadodakazi abo, bakhonza onkulunkulu bawo. U-Otheniyeli

Bakhetha onkulunkulu abasha ; lapho kwafika impi emasangweni; kwabonwa isihlangu noma umkhonto yin i phakathi kwezinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane kwa-Israyeli na?

ngathi kini: NginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu; aniyikwesaba onkulunkulu bama-Amori enihlala ezweni lawo, kepha kanilalelanga izwi lami.

Umvini wathi kuyo : Ngiyakuliyeka yini iwayini lami elithokozisa onkulunkulu nabantu, ngiye ngintengantenge phezu kwemithi, na?

Kepha umnqumo wathi kuyo : Ngiyakuwayeka yini amafutha ami abadunyiswa ngawo onkulunkulu nabantu , ngiye ngintengantenge phezu kwemithi, na?

Impela ngiyazi ukuthi uJehova mkhul u nokuthi iNkosi yethu iphezu kwabo bonke onkulunkulu.

Ngiyabazonda abakhonza onkulunkulu abayize , kepha mina ngithemba uJehova.

Ngokuba mkhulu uJehova , udumisekile kakhulu; uyesabeka phezu kwabo bonke onkulunkulu.

Ngokuba bonke onkulunkulu babezizwe bayizithombe , kepha uJehova walenza izulu.

Kwathi-ke izixuku zikubona l okho akwenzile uPawulu , zaphakamisa izwi lazo, zathi ngesiLikawoniya: Onkulunkulu befana nabantu behlele kithi.

Kepha abathile kuzo izazi zama-Epikhuru nezamaStoyiku baphikisana naye; abanye bathi : Leli p hoshophosho lithini na ? Abanye bathi : Kungathi ungomemezela onkulunkulu abangaziwayo , ngokuba wayeshumayela ivangeli ngoJesu nangokuvuka kwabafileyo.

UPawulu wema -ke phakathi ne-Areyophagu, wathi: Madoda ase -Athene, ngiyabona ngakho konke ukuthi nikhonza kakhulu onkulunkulu.

kepha seniyabona, niyezwa futhi ukuthi akukuphela e -Efesu kodwa cishe kulo lonke i-Asiya uPawulu lona udukisile abantu abaningi ngokubancenga , ethi akusibo onkulunkulu labo abenziwe ngezandla.

bathi ku-Aroni: S enzele onkulunkulu abazakuhamba phambi kwethu ; ngokuba uMose lowo owasikhipha ezweni laseGibithe , asazi ukuba wehlelwe yini.

Kepha ngaleso sikhathi ningamazi uNkulunkulu naniyizigqila phansi kwalabo abangesibo onkulunkulu ngemvelo;

Kalokhu ngiyazi ukuthi uJehova mkhulu kunabo bonke onkulunkulu, yebo, kulokhu ababebagabisela ngakho.

Aniyikwenza lutho olungaphandle kwami ; onkulunkulu besiliva nawonkulunkulu begolide aniyikuzenzela bona.

Ungabi nabanye onkulunkulu ngaphandle kwami.

Ohlabela abanye onkulunkulu ngaphandle kukaJehova yedwa uyakubhujiswa nokubhujiswa.

Qaphelani konke lokho engikushilo kini , ningaphathi igama labanye onkulunkulu; lingezwakali liphuma emlonyeni wakho. Imithetho yemikhosi emikhulu

Awuyikubakhothamela onkulunkulu babo , ungabakhonzi, ungenzi njengokwemisebenzi yabo , kepha wobachitha impela , ubhidlize izithombe zabo.

Abayikuhlala ezweni lakini, funa bakwenze ukuba wone kimi, ngokuba uma ubakhonza onkulunkulu babo, kuyakuba lugibe kuwe.

Abantu sebebone ukuthi uMose ulibele ukwehla entabeni, abantu babuthana ku-Aroni, bathi kuye : Vuka usenzele onkulunkulu abazakuhamba phambi kwethu, ngokuba uMose lowo , umuntu owasikhuphula ezweni laseGibithe, asazi ukuthi wehlelwe yini.

Ngokuba bathi kimi : Senzele onkulunkulu abazakuhamba phambi kweth u, ngokuba uMose lowo , umuntu owasikhuphula ezweni laseGibithe , asazi ukuthi wehlelwe yini.

UMose wabuyela kuJehova , wathi: Hawu, laba bantu benzile isono esikhulu, bazenzele onkulunkulu ngegolide.

Wawamukela ezandleni zabo , wawabumba ngengwedo , wawenza aba yithole elibu njiweyo, bathi: Nampa onkulunkulu bakho , Israyeli, abakukhuphula ezweni laseGibithe.

baphambukile masinyane endleleni engabayala ngayo . Bazenzele ithole elibunjiweyo, balikhonza, balihlabela, bathi: Nampa onkulunkulu bakho , Israyeli, abakukhuphula ezweni laseGibithe.

funa wenze isivumelwano nabakhileyo ezweni , baye baphinge nawonkulunkulu babo, bahlabele onkulunkulu babo, omunye akumeme, udle umhlatshelo wakhe,

Awuyikuzenzela onkulunkulu ababunjiweyo.

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

Umoya waseGibithe uyakuba yize ngaphakathi kwalo ; ngiyakuchitha amasu alo; bayakufuna onkulunkulu, nezinyanga, nabanamadlozi, nabathakathi.

Xwayani ukuba uHezekiya anganiyengi ngokuthi : UJehova uyakusophula. Abanye onkulunkulu bezizwe bake bophula nokophula yini izwe lakubo esandleni senkosi yase-Asiriya na?

Baphi onkulunkulu baseHamati nase -Aripadi; baphi onkulunkulu baseSefarivayimi na? Balophulile iSamariya esandleni sami na?

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

Onkulunkulu balezo zizwe ezachithwa ngobaba , iGozani, neHarana, neResefi, nabantwana base-Edene ababeseThelasari bazophula na?

alahlile onkulunkulu bawo emlilweni , ngokuba babengesibo onkulunkulu , babe ngumsebenzi wezandla zomuntu ku phela, umuthi namatshe; ngalokho abachithile.

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.

Kukhona amadoda abaJuda owabeke phezu kwezindaba zesifunda saseBabele, oShadiraki, noMeshaki, no-Abedi Nego ; lawa madoda , nkosi, awakunakanga; awakhonzi onkulunkulu bakho , awakhuleki esithombeni segolide osimisileyo.

Kepha noma kungenjalo , makwazeke kuwe nkosi ukuthi asiyikukhonza onkulunkulu bakho, ngeke sakhuleka esithombeni segolide osimisileyo.

Ngalokho ngikhipha isimemezelo sokuba bonke abantu , nezizwe, nezilimi ezikhuluma okungafanele ng oNkulunkulu wawoShadiraki , noMeshaki, no- Abedi Nego ziyakuhlahlelwa , izindlu zazo zenziwe iquba , ngokuba akakho omunye unkulunkulu ongophula ngale ndlela.

Baphuza iwayini , batusa onkulunkulu begoli de, nabesiliva, nabethusi, nabensimbi, nabomuthi, nabetshe.

Xwayani funa inhliziyo ikhohliswe , niphambuke, nikhonze abanye onkulunkulu, nikhuleke kubo,

nesiqalekiso, uma ningayilaleli imiyalo kaJehova uNkulunkulu wenu , kepha niphambuka end leleni enginiyala ngayo namuhla , ukulandela abanye onkulunkulu eningabaziyo.

Kepha umprofethi oyakukhuluma izwi ngokuziqhenya egameni lami engingamyalanga ukulikhuluma , noma ekhuluma egameni labanye onkulunkulu, lowo mprofethi uyakufa.

nalapho ungaphambuki nakulo elilodwa lamazwi engikuyala ngawo namuhla ngakwesokunene noma ngakwesokhohlo ukulandela abanye onkulunkulu ukuba ubakhonze.

Kepha uma inhliziyo yakho iphenduka ukuze ungezwa , kepha uyengwe, ukhuleke kwabanye onkulunkulu, ubakhonze,

Isizwe sike senana ngawonkulunkul u abangesibo onkulunkulu na ? Kepha abantu bami benanile udumo lwabo ngokungenakusiza.

Baphi onkulunkulu bakh o ozenzele bona na ? Mabavuke, uma bengakusindisa ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka kwakho , ngokuba njengomumo wemizi yakho, banjalo onkulunkulu bakho, Juda.

AmaKaledi alwa nalo muzi ayakufika , awuthungele lo muzi ngomlilo , awushise kanye nalezo zindlu abashisele uBali impepho phezu kwezimpahla zazo, bathululela abanye onkulunkulu iminikelo yokuphuzwa ukuba bangicunule.

Futhi ngithume kini zonke izinceku zami abaprofethi , ngibathuma njalonjalo, ngokuthi: Ake nibuye, kube yilowo nalowo endleleni yakhe embi , nenze imisebenzi yenu ibe mihle , ningalandeli aban ye onkulunkulu ukuba nibakhonze; khona niyakuhlala ezweni engilinike nina nawoyihlo . Kepha anibekanga izindlebe zenu, aningizwanga.

Ngiyakuphemba umlilo uyakuzishisa, athumbe onkulunkulu, embathe izwe laseGibithe njengomalusi embatha ingubo yakhe , aphume eGibithe ngokuthula.

Ayesephendula uJeremiya onke amadoda ayekwazi ukuthi omkawo bashisela abanye onkulunkulu impepho nabo bonke abesifazane ababemi khona, ibandla elikhulu , bonke abantu ababehlala ezweni laseGibithe ePhatirosi; bathi:

ngenxa yobubi babo ababenzileyo ukuba bangicunule , behamba beshisa impepho, bekhonza abanye onkulunkulu abangabazanga bona , nani, nawoyihlo.

Kepha abalalelanga, ababekanga izindlebe zabo ukuba babuye ebubini babo, bangashiseli abanye onkulunkulu impepho.

ngokungicunula ngemisebenzi yezandla zenu, nishisela abanye onkulunkulu impepho ezweni laseGibithe , lapho niyile khona ukugogobala , ukuba ninqunywe, nibe yisiqalekiso nehlazo phakathi kwezizwe zonke zomhlaba , na?

Ngiyakwenza ukuba kuphele kwaMowabi , usho uJehova , yena onikela ezindaweni eziphakemeyo noshisela onkulunkulu bakhe impepho.

Kuyakuthi lapho nisho nithi: UJehova uNkulunkulu wenu wenzeleni kithi konke lok hu na ? usho kubo ukuthi : Njengalokho ningishiyile , nakhonza onkulunkulu babezizwe ezweni lakini , kanjalo niyakukhonza abezizwe ezweni elingesilo elenu.

Ngingakuthethelela kanjani na ? Abantwana bakho bangishiyile , bafunga okungesibo onkulunkulu. Ngabafungisa, kepha baphinga, babuthana endlini yezifebe.

Abantwana batheza izinkuni , oyise baphemba umlilo , abesifazane baxova inhlama ukuba benzele inkosikazi yezulu amaqebelengwane , bathululele abanye onkulunkulu umnikelo wokuphuzwa ukuba bangicunule.

uma ningacindezeli umfokazi , nentandane, nomfelokazi, ningachithi igazi elingenacala kule ndawo , futhi ningalandeli abanye onkulunkulu ukuba nilimale,

Niyakweba yini , nibulale, niphinge, nifunge amanga , nimshisele uBali impepho, nilandele abanye onkulunkulu eningabazanga,

Uma neqa isivumelwano sikaJehova uNkulunkulu wenu akuyala ngaso , niye nikhonze abanye onkulunkulu , nibakhothamele, intukuthelo kaJehova iyakunivuthela, nibhubhe masinyane ezweni elihle aninike lona.

Manje yesabani uJehova , nimkhonze ngobuqotho nangeqiniso , nisuse onkulunkulu ababakhonzayo oyihlo phesheya koMfula naseGibithe, nimkhonze uJehova.

Uma kukubi e mehlweni enu ukumkhonza uJehova , khethani namuhla ukuthi ngubani eniyakumkhonza , noma onkulunkulu ababakhonzayo oyihlo besengaphesheya koMfula, noma onkulunkulu bama -Amori enihlala ezweni lawo; kepha mina nendlu yami siyakumkhonza uJehova.

Abantu baphendula bathi: Makube kude nathi ukumshiya uJehova ukuba sikhonze abanye onkulunkulu,

UJoshuwa wathi kubantu bonke : Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli, uthi: Oyihlo bahlala endulo ngaphesheya koMfula, uThera uyise ka- Abrahama noyise kaNahori, bakhonza abanye onkulunkulu.

Uma nimshiya uJehova , nikhonze onkulunkulu babezizwe , uyakuphenduka, anenzele okubi, aniqede esenenzele okuhle.

Wathi: Susani manje onkulunkulu babezizwe abaphakathi kwenu , nithobele izinhliziyo zenu kuJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.

Ningaphendukeli kuzo izithombe, ningazenzeli onkulunkulu ababunjiweyo; nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu.

ngokuba babiza abantu ukuba beze emihlatshelweni yawonkulunkulu babo ; abantu badla, bakhothamela onkulunkulu babo.

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