Ngalokho ngakhipha isimemezelo sokuba kulethwe bonke abahlakaniphileyo baseBabele phambi kwami, ukuze bangazise incazelo yephupho.

Kodwa ngasekugcineni kwangena uDaniyeli phambi kwami ogama lakhe linguBeliteshasari njengegama likankulunkulu wami , okuye umoya wawonkulunkulu abangcwele; ngamtshela iphupho, ngathi:

Khona uDaniyeli wangeniswa phambi kwenkosi . Inkosi yakhuluma, yathi kuDaniyeli: Wena unguDaniyeli lowo ongowabathunjwa bakwaJuda , abalethwa yinkosi ubaba, bevela kwaJuda na?

Manje-ke kungeniswe phambi kwami abahlakaniphileyo nabathwebulayo ukuba bafunde lo mbhalo , bangazise incazelo yawo , kepha behl uleka ukubonakalisa incazelo yale ndaba.

Wayesephendula uDaniyeli, wathi phambi kwenkosi : Izipho zakho mazibe kuwe, umuphe omunye imivuzo yakho ; nokho ngiyakufundela inkosi umbhalo, ngiyazise incazelo.

ngenxa yobukhulu owamnika bona , bonke abantu , nezizwe, nezilimi bathuthumela, besaba phambi kwakhe ; athanda ukumbulala wambulala , athanda ukumyeka wamyeka ; athanda ukumphakamisa wamphakamisa, athanda ukumthobisa wamthobisa.

kepha uziphakamisile eNkosini yasezulwini ; balethe izitsha zendlu yakhe phambi kwakho ; wena nezinduna zakho , nawomkakho, nezancinza zakho niphuzile iwayini ngazo , utusile wena onkulunkulu besiliva, nabegolide, nabethusi, nabensimbi, nabomuthi, nabetshe abangaboni , abangezwa, abangazi; kodwa uNkulunkulu omphefumulo wakho usesandleni sakhe , nokungezakhe zonke izindlela zakho awumdumisanga.

Asondela, akhuluma phambi kwenkosi ngesiyalezo senkosi , athi: Asithi ulobile isiyalezo sokuthi yilowo nalowo ocela nakumuphi unkulunk ulu noma kumuntu ngezinsuku ezingamashumi amathathu , kuphela kuwe nkosi , uyakuphonswa emphandwini wezingonyama na ? Inkosi yaphendula yathi : Iqinisile leyo nto ngokomthetho wamaMede namaPheresiya ongenakuguquka.

Ayesephendula ethi phambi kwenkosi : UDaniyeli lowo ongowabathunjwa bakwaJuda akakunaki wena nkosi , nesiyalezo osilob ileyo, kepha uyacela isicelo sakhe kathathu ngosuku.

UNkulunkulu uthumil e ingelosi yakhe , wavimba imilomo yezingonyama, azingilimazanga, ngokuba kwafunyanwa kimi ukungabi nacala phambi kwakhe; naphambi kwakho, nkosi, angenzanga okubi.

Ngenza isiyalezo ukuba ekubuseni konke kombuso wami abantu bathuthumele, besabe phambi kukaNkulunkulu kaDaniyeli , ngokuba unguNkulunkulu ophilayo , umi kuze kube phakade , nombuso wakhe yiwo ongayikuchithwa, nokubusa kwakhe kuyakuma kuze kube sekupheleni.

Umnonjana womlilo wavela , waphuma phambi kwakhe ; izinkulungwane zenkulungwane zazimkhonza, nezinkulungwane eziyishumi zezinkulungwane eziyishumi zazimi ngaphambi kwakhe ; kwahlala abahluleli , izincwadi zavulwa.

Ngabona emibonweni ebusuku ; bheka, kwafika namafu ezulu onjengendodana yomuntu ; yafika komdala wezinsuku , yasondezwa phambi kwakhe.

nangezimpondo eziyishumi ezazisekhanda laso, nolunye olwavelayo, ezawa phambi kwalo ezintathu , lolo phondo olwalunamehlo nomlomo owawukhuluma izinto ezinkulu , olukubonakala kwalo kwakukukhulu kunezinye.

Kwathi sengiwubonile umbono mina Daniyeli , ngafuna uk uwuqonda; bheka, kwase kumi phambi kwami kungathi isimo somuntu.

Ngase ngiphakamisa amehlo ami , ngabona; bheka, kwakumi phambi komfula inqama inezimpondo ezimbili ; lezo zimpondo ezimbili zazithaphile , kepha olunye lwaluthaphe kunolunye, oluthaphileyo lwavela muva.

Ngabona inqama iqhubukusha ngasentshonalanga , nangasenyakatho, nangaseningizimu; kwakungekho silo ebesinokuma phambi kwayo , kwakungekho ongophula esandleni sayo , kepha yenza njengentando yayo , yazikhulisa.

Yafika enqameni eyayinezimpondo ezimbili , engayibona imi phambi komfula, yatheleka kuyo ngokufutheka kwayo okunamandla.

Ngayibona isondela kakhulu enqameni , yababa ngayo , yayishaya inqama , yazaphula izimpondo zayo ezimbili ; kwakungekho mandla enqameni okuma phambi kwayo , kepha yayiphonsa phansi , yayinyathela, kwakungekho ongayophula inqama esandleni sayo.

Ake idlule inkosi phambi kwenceku yayo , mina ngiseseze njengokuhamba kwempahla ephambi kwami nanjengokuhamba kwabantwana , ngize ngifike enkosini yami eSeyiri.

UJakobe wafika kahle emzini waseShekemi osezweni laseKhanani , evela ePhadani Aramu; wamisa itende lakhe phambi komuzi.

Yena uqobo wadlulela phambi kwabo , wakhothamela emhlabathini kasikhombisa, waze wafika kumfowabo.

Manje ningabi buhlungu , ningazithukutheleli ukuthi nathengisa ngami lapha, ngokuba uNkulunkulu wangithuma phambi kwenu ukulondoloza impilo.

Wathuma uJuda ngaphambi kwakhe kuJosefa ukuyokhomba phambi kwakhe indlela eya eGosheni.

Isiphelile imali ezweni laseGibithe nasezweni laseKhanani , bonke abaseGibithe beza kuJosefa , bathi: Siphe ukudla ; siyakufelani phambi kwakho na? Ngokuba isiphelile imali.

UJehova wangibonisa amaqoma amabili amakhiw ane ebekwe phambi kwethempeli likaJehova , uNebukadinesari, inkosi yaseBabele , esethumbile uJekoniya indodana kaJehoyakimi, inkosi yakwaJuda, nezikhulu zakwaJuda, nezinyanga zomsebenzi , nabakhandi, wabasusa eJerusalema , wabayisa eBabele.

Uyakuthi kubo: U sho kanje uJehova , uthi: Uma ningangilaleli ukuba nihambe emthethweni wami engiwubeke phambi kobuso benu,

Kwathi ngawona lowo mnyaka ekuqaleni kokubusa kukaSedekiya inkosi yakwaJuda ngomnyaka wesine , ngenyanga yesihlanu , uHananiya indodana ka-Azuri, umprofethi waseGibeyoni , wakhuluma kimi endlini kaJehova phambi kwabapristi nabantu bonke, wathi:

Njengomthombo umpompoza amanzi awo, kanjalo umpompoza ububi bawo; ubudlova nokubhubhisa kuzwakele phakathi kwawo ; ukugula namanxeba kukhona phambi kwami njalo.

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

Lokhu kuyakuba yinsindiso yam i ukuthi ongenaNkulunkulu akezi phambi kwakhe.
