Wathi: Uma ama -Aramu engahlula , uyakungisiza; kepha uma abantwana bakwa-Amoni bekwahlula, ngiyakukusiza.

UDavide wathi : Ngiyakumenzela umusa uHanuni , indodana kaNahashi, ngokuba uyise wangenzela umusa . UDavide wayesethuma izithunywa ukumduduza ngoyise . Zafika-ke izinceku zikaDavide ezweni labantwana bakwa-Amoni kuHanuni ukumduduza.

UGadi wayesefika kuDavide, wathi kuye: UJehova usho kanje, uthi:

UDavide wathi kuGadi : Nginosizi kakhulu; mangiwele esandleni sikaJehova, ngokuba umusa wakhe mkhulu kakhulu ; kepha esandleni somuntu mangingaweli kuso.

UNkulunkulu wathuma ingelosi eJerusalema ukulichitha ; kwathi lapho isalichitha, uJehova wabuka , wazisola ngalobo bubi , wathi engelosini echithayo: Sekwanele; buyisa isandla sakho . Ingelosi kaJehova yayimi ngasesibuyeni sika-Orinani umJebusi.

Isandla sakho, Jehova Nkulunkulu wami , masibe phezu kwami naphezu kwendlu kababa , singabi phezu kwabantu bakho ukubashaya ngesifo. I-altare elisesibuyeni sika-Orinani

UDavide wathi ku -Orinani: Nginike indawo yalesi sibuya ukub a ngakhele uJehova i-altare kuyo: uyakunginika yona ngemali epheleleyo ukuba lesi sifo sinqamuke kubantu.

U-Orinani wathi kuDavide : Zithathele yona; inkosi yami, inkosi, mayenze okuhle emehlweni ayo ; bheka, ngiyakupha izinkabi zibe ngezeminikelo yokushiswa, nezibhulo zibe yizinkuni , nokolweni abe ngumnikelo wempuphu; ngikunika konke.

UDavide wathi kuSolomoni indodana yakhe : Mina-ke, kwakusenhliziyweni yami ukwakhela igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu wami indlu.

Ngokuba uDavide wathi : UJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli unike abantu bakhe ukuphumula; uhlezi eJerusalema kuze kube phakade;

UDavide inkosi wayesema ngezinyawo , wathi: Ngizweni, bafowethu nabantu bakwethu : mina-ke, kwakusenhliziyweni yami ukwakhela umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova indlu yokuphumula neyesena belo sikaNkulunkulu wethu; ngangizilungiselele ukwakha.

Wathi kimi : U Solomoni indodana yakho nguye oyakwakha indlu yami namagceke ami , ngokuba ngimkhethile ukuba abe yindodana yami , mina ngibe nguyise.

UDavide inkosi wathi kulo lonke ibandla : USolomoni indodana yami , oyedwa uNkulunkulu amkhethileyo , usengumfana, usathambile, nomsebenzi mkhulu, ngokuba ithempeli alisilo elomuntu kepha ngelikaJehova uNkulunkulu.

UDavide wayesebonga uJehova phambi kwebandla lonke ; uDavide wathi: Mawubongwe wena Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli ubaba kuze kube phakade.

UDavide wathi kulo lonke ibandla : Ake nibonge uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu. Lonke ibandla lambonga uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise , lakhothama, lakhuleka kuJehova nasenkosini.

UJabesi wabiza uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, wathi: Sengathi ungangibusisa nokungibusisa, wandise umkhawulo wami , isandla sakho sibe nami , ungivikele ebubini , ngingehlelwa ngubuhlungu . UNkulunkulu wamnika akucelayo.

Ngiyambonga owangenzela amandla , uKristu Jesu iNkosi yethu , ngokuba wathi ngikholekile, engimisa enkonzweni,

Futhi u -Adamu kakhohliswanga , kepha owesifazane wathi ekhohlisiwe , waphambuka;

Kanjalo wathabatha nesitsha emva kokudla kwakusihlwa, wathi: Lesi sitsha siyisivumelwano esisha egazini lami ; lokhu kwenzeni ngezikhathi zonke enisiphuza ngazo ukuba ningikhumbule.

USamuweli wayesethatha umfuma wamafutha , wawathela ekhanda lakhe , wamanga, wathi: Angithi uJehova ukugcobile ukuba ube ngumholi wefa lakhe na?

Kwaphendula umuntu wakhona , wathi: Ngubani uyise na ? Ngalokho kwaba yisaga ukuthi: Naye uSawule uphakathi kwabaprofethi na?

Uyisekazi kaSawule wathi kuye nasencekwini yakhe: Nike naya ngaphi na? Wathi: Besiye kufuna izimbongolo ; lapho sesibonile ukuthi azikho , sase siya kuSamuweli.

USamuweli wathi kubo bonke abantu : Mbhekeni amkhethileyo uJehova ukuthi akakho onjengaye kub antu bonke. Base bekhamuluka abantu bonke , bathi: Mayime njalo inkosi.

USawule wathi : Akuyikubulawa muntu namuhla , ngokuba namuhla uJehova usebenzile ukusindiswa kwa-Israyeli.

UNahashi wakwa -Amoni wathi kubo : Ngiyakusenza nani ngalokhu ukuba kukhishwe onke amehlo enu okunene, ngikubeke kube yihlazo kuye wonke u- Israyeli.

Bheka, uSawule weza elandela izinkabi, evela ensimini; uSawule wathi: Yini ukuba abantu bakhale na? Bamtshela amazwi abantu baseJabeshi.

USamuweli wathi kuye wonke u-Israyeli: Bhekani, ngilalele izwi lenu kukho konke enikushiloyo kimi, ngibekile inkosi phezu kwenu.

USamuweli wathi kubantu : Ningesabi; impela nenzile konke lokho okubi ; kepha ningaphambuki ekumlandeleni uJehova , kodwa mkhonzeni uJehova ngayo yonke inhliziyo yenu;

USamuweli wathi kubantu : NguJehova, yena owabeka oMose no -Aroni nowakhuphula oyihlo ezweni laseGibithe.

UJonathani wachitha ikhanda lamaFilisti elaliseGeba , amaFilisti akuzwa . USawule wabetha icilongo ezweni lonke, wathi: Makezwe amaHeberu.

Kwathi ngosuku oluthile uJonathani indodana kaSawule wathi odibini oluphethe izikhali zakhe : Woza siwele , siye ekhandeni lamaFilisti elingaphesheya. Kepha akamtshelanga uyise.

Kwathi uSawule esakhuluma kumpristi, umsindo owawusekamu lamaFilisti waqhubeka, wanda; uSawule wathi kumpristi: Susa isandla sakho.

Abantu bakwa -Israyeli babecindezelwa ngalolo suku , kepha uSawule wafungisa abantu, wathi: Makaqalekiswe umuntu odla ukudla kungakahlwi , ngingakaziphindiseli ezitheni zami. Akwabakho muntu owezwa ukudla.

Kwase kuthatha omunye wa bantu, wathi: Uyihlo wabafungisa nokubafungisa abantu , ethi: M akaqalekiswe umuntu odla ukudla namuhla . Abantu babephelile amandla.

Base bemtshela uSawule, bethi: Bheka, abantu bayona kuJehova ngokudla okunegazi. Wathi: Nenze kabi; gingqelani kimi itshe elikhulu namuhla.

Wathi uSawule : Hlakazekelani phakathi kwabantu , nithi kubo : Lethani kimi, kube yilowo nalowo inkabi yakhe, nalowo imvu yakhe, nizihlabe lapha, nidle, ningoni kuJehova ngokudla okunegazi . Bonke abantu baletha , kwaba yilowo nalowo inkabi yakhe ngalobo b usuku ngesandla sakhe , bazihlaba khona.

USawule wabuza kuNkulunkulu wathi : Ngehle ngilandele amaFilisti na ? Uyakuwanikela esandleni sakwa -Israyeli na ? Kepha akamphendulanga ngalolo suku.

USawule wathi: Sondelani lapha nina nonke zinhloko zabantu, nazi, nibone ukuthi bekuyisiphi lesi sono sanamuhla.

Ngalokho uSawule wathi kuJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli: Malivele iqiniso. OJonathani noSawule badliwa yinkatho, kepha abantu baphunyuka.

USawule wathi : Yenzani inkatho phakathi kwami noJonathani indodana yami. Wadliwa uJonathani.

USawule wayesethi kuJonathani : Ngitshele okwenzileyo . UJonathani wamtshela wathi : Impela ngezwa ingcosana yezinyosi ngesihloko senduku eyayisesandleni sami; bheka, sengizakufa.

USawule wathi : Makenze njalo uNkulunkulu , enezele futhi , ngokuba uyakufa nokufa, Jonathani!

UJonathani wathi odibini lwakhe oluphethe izikhali zakhe : Woza siwele , siye ekha ndeni lalabo abangasokile ; ingabe uJehova uyakusisebenzela , ngokuba akukh o okumthiyayo uJehova ukuba asindise ngabaningi noma ngabayingcosana.

Ophethe izikhali zakhe wathi kuye : Yenza konke okusenhliziyweni yakho : hamba, bheka, nginawe njengenhliziyo yakho.

USamuweli wathi kuSawule : UJehova wangithuma ukuba ngikugcobe ube yinkosi phezu kwabantu bakhe u-Israyeli; ngalokho lalela amazwi kaJehova.

USamuweli wafika kuSawule ; uSawule wathi kuye : Mawubusiswe nguJehova; sengifezile izwi likaJehova.

USawule wathi : Babuye nazo kuma -Amaleki, ngokuba abantu bayeka ezinhle zezimvu nezezinkabi ukuba bahlabele uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ; ezinye siziqedile nya.

USamuweli wayesethi kuSawule : Kahle, ngikutshele lokho uJehova akukhulumile kimi kulobu busuku. Wathi kuye: Khuluma.

Wathi uSamuweli : Nakuba wawumncane emehlweni akho , awenziwanga yini waba yinhloko yezizwe zakwa -Israyeli na ? UJehova wakugcoba, waba yinkosi phezu kuka-Israyeli.

UJehova wakuthuma indlela, wathi: Hamba uqede nya izoni, ama-Amaleki, ulwe nawo aze aphele.

USawule wathi kuSamuweli: Ngililalele izwi likaJehova, ngihambile indlela uJehova owangithuma yona , ngimlethile u -Agagi inkosi yama -Amaleki, ngachitha impela ama-Amaleki.

USamuweli wathi kuye : UJehova uklebhul ile umbuso ka -Israyeli kuwe namuhla, uwunikile umngane wakho omuhle kunawe.

USamuweli wayesethi: Lethani kimi u-Agagi inkosi yama-Amaleki. U-Agagi wafika kuye esasile. U-Agagi wathi: Impela umunyu wokufa udlulile.

USamuweli wathi : Njengalokho inkemba yakho ibaphucile abesifazane abantwana, kanjalo unyoko uyakwaphucwa abantwana kunabanye . USamuweli wayesehlahlela u-Agagi phambi kukaJehova eGiligali.

USawule wathi kuma Kheni: Hambani nimuke , nehle kuwo ama -Amaleki, funa nginichithe kanye nawo , ngokuba nabenzela umusa bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ekukhuphukeni kwabo eGibithe . Ayesesuka amaKheni phakathi kwama-Amaleki.

UJehova wathi kuSamuweli : Uyakumkhalela kuze kube nini na ? Ngokuba ngimlahlile ukuba angabe esaba yinkosi phezu kuka -Israyeli. Gcwalisa uphondo lwakho ngamafutha , uhambe; ngiyakukuthuma kuJese waseBetlehema, ngokuba ngizibonele inkosi phakathi kwamadodana akhe.

UJese w adlulisa ayisikhombisa kumadodana akhe phambi kukaSamuweli. USamuweli wathi kuJese: UJehova akawakhethanga nalawa.

USamuweli wathi kuJese : Sebephelile abafana na ? Wathi: Kusasele omncane; bheka, uyalusa izimvu . USamuweli wathi kuJese : Thumela umlande, ngokuba asiyikubuya, engakafiki lapha.

Wathumela, wamngenisa. Wayebomvana enamehlo amahle , emuhle ngokubukwa. UJehova wathi: Suka umgcobe, ngokuba lona nguye.

Ngalokho uSawule wathuma izithunywa kuJese , wathi: Thuma kimi uDavide indodana yakho osezimvini.

Wathi uSamuweli : Ngingahamba kanjani ? Uma uSawule ekuzwa , uyakungibulala. UJehova wathi: Hamba nesithokazi, uthi: Ngize ukuhlabela uJehova.

USawule wathumela kuJese , wathi: Akeme phambi kwami uDavide , ngokuba ufumene umusa emehlweni ami.

Wathi: Yebo, kunokuthula; ngize ukuhlabela uJehova ; zingcweliseni, nize nami ekuhlabeni. Wabangcwelisa uJese namad odana akhe, wababiza ukuba beze ekuhlabeni.

Kwathi sebefikile , wabheka u-Eliyabe, wathi: Impela ogcotshiweyo kaJehova uphambi kwakhe.

Kepha uJehova wathi kuSamuweli : Ungabheki isimo sakhe nobude bomzimba wakhe, ngokuba ngimalile, lokhu uJehova engabuki si okomuntu; umuntu ubheka okusemehlweni, kepha uJehova ubheka okusenhliziyweni.

UJese wayesebiza u -Abinadaba, wamdlulisa phambi kukaSamuweli . Wathi: Nalona uJehova akamkhethanga.

UJese wayesedlulisa uShama. Wathi: Nalona uJehova akamkhethanga.

UmFilisti wathi : Ngiyazeyisa namuhla izinhla zakwa -Israyeli; nginikeni umuntu, silwe naye.

UJese wathi kuDavide indodana yakhe : Ake uthathele abafowenu i -efa lalolu tshwele nalezi zinkwa eziyishumi, usheshe uye ekamu labafowenu,

UDavide wakhuluma kubantu ababemi naye , wathi: Kuyakwenziwa ntoni kumuntu obulala lowo mFilisti , asuse ihlazo kwa -Israyeli, na? Ngokuba ngubani lowo mFilisti ongasokile ukuba ayeyise impi kaNkulunkulu ophilayo na?

U-Eliyabe umfowabo omkhulu wezwa lapho ekhuluma kubantu ; intukuthelo ka -Eliyabe yamvuthela uDavide, wathi: Wehleleni na? Uzishiye kubani leziya zimvu ezingengakanani ehlane na ? Mina ngiyakwazi ukuziphakamisa kwakho nobubi benhliziyo yakho , ngokuba wehlile ukuba ubuke impi.

Kepha uDavide wathi: Ngenzeni na? Bekungumbuzo nje.

USawule wathi kuDavide: Awunamandla okuya kulowo mFilisti, ulwe naye, ngokuba ungumfana nje, yena eyindoda yempi kwasebusheni bakhe.

UDavide wathi kuSawule : Inceku yakho yayizalusa izimvu zikayise ; lapho kwafika ingonyama nebhere kwathatha imvu emhlambini,

UDavide wathi: UJehova owangophula ozisheni lwengonyama nasozisheni lwebhere uyakungophula nasesandleni salowo mFilisti . USawule wathi kuDavide: Hamba, uJehova uyakuba nawe.

UDavide wabhinca inkemba yakhe phezu kwezambatho zakhe , wazama ukuhamba, ngokuba wayengakazilingi . UDavide wathi k uSawule: Anginakuhamba nalezi, angikazilingi. UDavide wayesezikhumula.

UmFilisti wathi kuDavide : Ngiyinja yin i ukuba uze kimi unezinduku na ? UmFilisti wamthuka uDavide ngawonkulunkulu bakhe.

UmFilisti wathi kuDavide : Woza kimi , nginike izinyoni zezulu nezilwane zasendle inyama yakho.

Lapho uSawule embona uDavide ephuma ukuhlangab ezana nomFilisti , wathi ku-Abineri induna yempi : Abineri, yindodana kabani lo mfana na ? U- Abineri wathi: Kuphila kwakho, nkosi, angazi.

USawule wathi kuye : Uyindodana kabani wena mfana na ? UDavide waphendula wathi: Ngiyindodana yenceku yakho uJese waseBetlehema.

Wema, wamemeza ezinhleni zakwa -Israyeli, wathi kuzo : Niphumelani ukuhlela impi na ? Angisiye umFilisti , nina niyizinceku zikaSawule , na? Zikhetheleni umuntu, ehle eze kimi.

USawule wawuciba umkhonto , ngokuba wathi: Ngiyakumbhujela uDavide odongeni. Kepha uDavide washalaza phambi kwakhe kabili.

USawule wathi kuDavide : Bheka, indodakazi yami enkulu uMerabi ngiyakukunika yona ibe ngumkakho; yiba yiqhawe lami kuphela, ulwe izimpi zikaJehova. Ngokuba uSawule wathi: Isandla sami masingabi phezu kwakhe , kepha isandla samaFilisti masibe phezu kwakhe.

UDavide wathi kuSawule : Mina ngingubani , kuyini ukuphila kwami , nomndeni kababa uyini kwa-Israyeli ukuba ngibe ngumkhwenyana wenkosi?

Wayesethi uSawule : Ngiyakumnika yena ukuba abe lugibe kuye , isandla samaFilisti sibe phezu kwakhe . Ngalokho uSawule wathi kuDavide: Uyakuba ngumkhwenyana wami ngokwesibili namuhla.

Izinceku zikaSawule zakhuluma lawo mazwi ezindle beni zikaDavide . UDavide wathi: Kuyinto elula emehlweni enu ukuba ngibe ngumkhwenyana wenkosi, lokhu ngingumuntu ompofu nodelelikileyo na?

USawule wathi : Niyakusho kanje kuDavide , nithi: Inkosi ayifuni ilobolo , kuphela amajwabu ayikhulu amaFilisti ukuba kuphindiswe ezitheni zenkosi . USawule wacabanga ukumwisa uDavide ngesandla samaFilisti.

USawule wathukuthela kakhulu , laba libi lelo zwi emehlweni akhe ; wathi: Bamnike uDavide izinkulungwane eziyishumi , kepha mina banginike izinkulungwane nje; sekumsalele umbuso kuphela.

USawule wathuma izithunywa endlini kaDavide ukuba zimlinde, zimbulale ekuseni; uMikhali umkaDavide wamtshela wathi : Uma ungasindisi ukuphila kwakho ngalobu busuku, uyakubulawa kusasa.

Lapho uSawule esethuma izithunywa ukumthatha uDavide, wathi: Uyagula.

USawule wathi kuMikhali : Ungikhohliseleni kanje , uvumele isitha sami ukuba sihambe, siphunyuke, na? UMikhali wamphendula uSawule ngokuthi: Wathi kimi: Ngivumele ukuba ngihambe; ngiyakukubulalelani na?

UJonathani wamtshela uDavide, wathi: USawule ubaba ufuna ukukubulala ; ngalokho ake uxwaye kusasa, uhlale esitha, ucashe;

UJonathani wakhuluma okuhle ngoDavide kuSawule uyise , wathi kuye : Inkosi mayingayoni inceku yayo uDavide, ngokuba akakonanga, nemisebenzi yakhe kuwe ilungile kakhulu;

USawule walilalela izwi likaJonathani ; uSawule wafunga wathi: Kuphila kukaJehova, akayikubulawa.

Wenza isithem biso, wathi: Jehova Sebawoti , ubheke nokubheka ukuhlupheka kwencekukazi yakho , ungikhumbule, ungakhohlwa incekukazi yakho, unike incekukazi yakho umntwana wesilisa , bese ngimnika uJehova zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakhe, kungathinti mpuco ekhanda lakhe.

U-Eli wathi kuye : Uyakudakwa kuze kube nini na ? Susa iwayini lakho kuwe.

UHana waphendula wathi: Hhayi, nkosi, ngingowesifazane ohluphekileyo; angiphuzanga iwayini naphuzo olunamandla , kepha bengithulula umphefumulo wami phambi kukaJehova.

Wathi: Incekukazi yakho mayifumane umusa emehlweni akho. Owesifazane wayesehamba, wadla, ubuso bakhe ababe busanyukumala.

Kepha uHana akenyukanga , ngokuba wathi kumyeni wakhe : Hhayi aze alunyulwe umntwana ; khona ngiyakumyisa ukuba abonakale phambi kukaJehova, ahlale khona njalo.

Wathi: E nkosi, kuphila komphefumulo wakho , nkosi yami , ngingowesifazane owayemi kuwe lapha, ekhuleka kuJehova.

UDavide wabaleka eNayoti eRama , weza, wathi phambi kukaJonathani : Ngenzeni na? Liyini icala lami na? Siyini isono sami phambi kukayihlo ukuba afune ukuphila kwami na?

UJonathani wathi kuDavide : Woza siye endle . Baphuma bobabili , baya endle.

UJonathani wathi kuDavide : Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, nxa ngimphenya ubaba ngalesi sikhathi kusasa noma ngomhlomunye, bheka, uma kukuhle kuDavide, ngiyakuthumela kuwe, ngikwambulele kuwe.

Wathi kuye : Makube kude lokho ; awuyikufa; bheka, ubaba akenzi lutho olukhulu noma oluncane engakwambuleli kimi; pho, ubaba ubeyakungifihlela le nto na? Akuyikuba njalo.

Kwathi ngangomuso emva kokwethwasa kwenyanga ngolwesibili indawo kaDavide yayiyize ; uSawule wathi kuJonathani indodana yakhe : Indodana kaJese ayifikanga ngani ekudleni nayizolo nanamuhla na?

UJonathani wamphendula uSawule, wathi: UDavide wangicela nokungicela ukuba aye eBetlehema,

wathi: Ake ungivumele ukuba ngihambe , ngokuba umndeni wakithi unomhlatshelo emzini ; umfowethu ungiyalile ; manje-ke, uma ngifumene umusa emehlweni akho , mangihambe ngibone abafowethu . Ngalokho akafikanga etafuleni lenkosi.

UDavide wabuye wafunga , wathi: Uyihlo uyazi kahle ukuthi ngifumene umusa emehlweni akho; uthi: Makangazi lokhu uJonathani, funa abe nosizi. Kepha, kuphila kukaJehova nokuphila kwakho, kukhona isinyathelo esisodwa nje phakathi kwami nokufa.

Intukuthelo kaSawule yayisimvuthela uJonathani , wathi kuye : Wena ndodana yowesifazane owonakeleyo nohlubukileyo , angazi yini ukuthi ukhethile indoda na kaJese kube yihlazo lakho nehlazo lobunqunu bukanyoko, na?

UJonathani wamphendula uSawule uyise , wathi kuye: Uyakubulalelwani? Wenzeni na?

Wathi kumfana wakhe : Gijima, ufune imicibisholo engiyicibishelayo . Esagijima umfana, wacibishela umcibisholo ngaphambi kwakhe.

Umfana esefikile endaweni yomcibisholo uJonathani ayicibisheleyo , uJonathani wamemeza emva komfana , wathi: Umcibisholo awungaphambi kwakho na?

UJonathani wamemeza emva komfana , wathi: Shesha, ukhawuleze, ungemi. Umfana kaJonathani waqoqa imicibisholo, wafika enkosini yakhe.

UJonathani wanika umfana wakhe izikhali zakhe , wathi kuye : Hamba, uziyise emzini.

UJonathani wathi kuDavide : Hamba kahle, lokhu sifungile sobabili igama likaJehova ngokuthi : U Jehova uyakuba phakathi kwami nawe naphakathi kwenzalo yami nenza lo yakho kuze kube phakade . Wavuka, wahamba; uJonathani wangena emzini.

UDavide wathi kuJonathani : Bheka, kusasa iyakwethwasa inyanga ; angifanele ukuphu tha ukuhlala nenkosi ekudleni , kepha ngivumele ukuba ngihambe, ngicashe endle kuze kube sosukwini lwesithathu ngakusihlwa.

UJonathani wathi : Makube kude nawe , ngokuba uma bengazi nakanci ukuthi kunqunywe okubi ngubaba ukuba wehlelwe yikho , bengingayikukutshela na?

UDavide wayeseya eNobi ku -Ahimeleki umpristi ; u-Ahimeleki waya ukumhlangabeza uDavide ethuthumela , wathi ku ye: Yini ukuba uwedwa , kungekho muntu nawe, na?

Wathi kuzo izinsizwa : Hambani phambi kwami ; bhekani, ngiyanilandela. Kepha akayitshelanga indoda yakhe uNabali.

Wawa ngasezinyaweni zakhe , wathi: Lobo bubi mabube phezu kwami , nkosi; incekukazi yakho mayikhulume ezindlebeni zakho , uzwe amazwi encekukazi yakho.

UDavide wayesamukela esandleni sakhe lokho amlethele khona ; wathi kuye: Khuphukela endlini yakho ngokuthula ; bheka, ngililalele izwi lakho , ngibuvumile ubuso bakho.

UDavide esezwile ukuthi uNabali ufile, wathi: Makabusiswe uJehova omele indaba yehlazo lami esandleni sikaNabali , ovimbele inceku ya khe ebubini , wabuyisela ububi bukaNabali ekhanda lakhe . UDavide wathumela wakhuluma ku-Abigayili ukuba amthathe abe ngumkakhe.

U-Abisalomu wathi futhi : Sengathi ngingenziwa umahluleli ezweni , kuze kimi wonke umuntu onecala nendaba, ngimenzele ukulunga.

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

Kwathi lapho uHushayi umArki umngane kaDavide esefikile ku -Abisalomu, uHushayi wathi ku-Abisalomu: Mana njalo, nkosi; mana njalo, nkosi.

Wathi-ke u -Ahithofeli ku -Abisalomu: Ngena kuzo izancinza z ikayihlo azishiyile ukuba zilinde indlu ; u-Israyeli wonke uyakuzwa ukuba unengwa nguyihlo, ziqine izandla zabo bonke abanawe.

Yayisithi inkosi : Iphi indodana yenkosi yakho na ? USiba wathi enkosini : Bheka, ihlezi eJerusalema , ngokuba yathi : Namuhla indlu ka -Israyeli iyakubuyisela kimi umbuso kababa.

UShimeyi washo kanje ekuthukeni kwakhe , wathi: Suka, suka wena muntu wegazi, muntu omubi!

U-Ahithofeli wathi futhi ku -Abisalomu: Mangikhethe manje abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyishumi nambili , ngisuke ngimxoshe uDavide ngalobu busuku,

Zase zifika izinceku zika -Abisalomu kowesifazane endlini , zathi: Baphi o - Ahimahasi noJonathani na ? Owesifazane wathi kuzo : Bawuwele umfudlana. Sezibafunile zingabatholanga, zabuyela eJerusalema.

UHushayi esefikile ku -Abisalomu, u-Abisalomu wakhuluma kuye , wathi: U- Ahithofeli ukhulume kanjalo ; siyakwenza njengokusho kwakhe na ? Uma kungenjalo, khuluma wena.

UHushayi wathi ku -Abisalomu: Isiluleko u-Ahithofeli eluleke ngaso manje asisihle.

Wathi futhi uHushayi : Uyamazi uyihlo nabant u bakhe ukuthi bangamaqhawe nokuthi bacasukile ezinhliziyweni zabo njengebhere elaphucwe amazinyane alo endle ; uyihlo uyindoda yempi , akayikuhlala nabantu.

Umuntu othile wakubona , wamtshela uJowabe, wathi: Bheka, ngibone u - Abisalomu ephanyekekile e-okini.

UJowabe wathi kumuntu omtshelileyo : Bheka, ukubonile, awumjuqanga ngani khona , awele phansi , na? Nga ngikunikile izinhlamvu eziyishumi zesiliva nebhande.

Wathi-ke umuntu kuJowabe : Noma bengiyakukhokhelwa izinhlamvu eziyinkulungwane zesiliva esandleni sami , nokho bengingayikuselulela isandla sami endodaneni yenkosi, ngokuba ezindlebeni zethu inkosi yakuyala wena no-Abishayi no-Ithayi ukuthi: Yilondeni insizwa u-Abisalomu.

U-Abisalomu esekhona wayethathe insika , wazimisela yona esiGod ini seNkosi, ngokuba wathi : Anginandodana yokukhumbuzela igama lami . Wayiqamba insika ngegama lakhe; ithiwa isikhumbuzo sika -Abisalomu kuze kube namuhla.

UJowabe wathi kuye : Awuyikuba ngumbiki wendaba namuhla , kepha uyakubika ngolunye usuku ; namuhla awuyikubika lutho , ngokuba indodana yenkosi ifile.

U-Ahimahasi indodana kaSadoki wabuye wathi kuJowabe : Noma kanjani, ake ngigijime nami , ngimlandele umKushe . Kepha uJowabe wathi : Uyakugijimelani wena mntanami , lokhu kungekho mvuzo wombiko kuwe , na?

Wathi: Noma kanjani, ake ngigijime. Wathi kuye: Gijima. Wayesegijima u- Ahimahasi ngendlela yasethafeni, wamdlula umKushe.

Umlindi wayesebona omunye umuntu egijima ; umlindi wabiza umlindisango, wathi: Bheka, omunye umuntu ugijima eyedwa . Inkosi yathi: Naye uletha umbiko.

Wayesememeza u-Ahimahasi, wathi enkosini: Bayede! Wakhothama phambi kwenkosi ebhekise phansi ubuso bakhe , wathi: Makabongwe uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho , onikele abantu abaphakamisela isandla sabo enkosini yami, inkosi.

Bheka, wayesefika umKushe; umKushe wathi: Ngumbiko, nkosi yami, nkosi, ngokuba uJehova ukuphindisele namuhla kubo bonke abakuvukelayo.

Inkosi yathi kumKushe : Isahlezi kahle insizwa u -Abisalomu na? UmKushe wathi: Izitha zenkosi yami , inkosi, nabo bonke abakuvukelayo ukukulimaza mababe njengaleyo nsizwa.

Wathi enkosini : Inkosi yami mayingangibaleli icala , futhi ungakhumbuli okubi okwenziwa yinceku yakho mhla inkosi yami , inkosi, iphuma eJerusalema, ukuba inkosi ikubeke enhliziyweni yayo.

Kepha u -Abishayi indodana kaSeruya waphendula wathi: UShimeyi akayikubulawa yini ngalokho , njengokuba wathuka ogcotshiweyo kaJehova , na?

UDavide wathi : Nginamsebenzi muni nani madodana kaSeruya ukuba nimelane nami namuhla na ? Kuzakubulawa umuntu namuhla kwa -Israyeli na? Angazi yini mina ukuthi namuhla ngiyinkosi phezu kuka-Israyeli na?

Wathi: Nkosi yami , nkosi, inceku yami yangikhohlisa , ngokuba inceku yakho yathi : Ngiyakuzibophelela imbongolo ukuba ngiyikhwele , ngihambe nenkosi, ngokuba inceku yakho ilunyonga.

UJowabe wangena endlini enkosini , wathi: Udumazile namuhla ubuso bazo zonke izinceku zakh o ezisindisile ukuphila kwakho namuhla , nokuphila kwamadodana akho namadodakazi akho , nokuphila kwabafazi bakho , nokuphila kwezancinza zakho

Wathi uDavide kuyo insizwa eyayimtshelile : Ungowaphi na ? Wathi: Ngiyindodana yomuntu ogogobele nje, umAmaleki.

UDavide wathi kuyo : Yini ukuba ungesabanga ukwelula isandla sakho , ubhubhise ogcotshiweyo kaJehova, na?

UDavide wayesebiza enye yezinsizwa, wathi: Sondela, umsukele. Yamshaya waze wafa.

UDavide wathi kuye: Igazi lakho malibe phezu kwekhanda lakho , ngokuba umlomo wakho ufakazile ngawe , lapho uthi : Ngibulele ogcotshiweyo kaJehova. Isililo sikaDavide ngoSawule noJonathani

wathi mabafundiswe abantwana bakwaJuda eyoMnsalo ; bheka, silotshiwe eNcwadini Yoqotho.

UDavide wathi kuye : Uvelaphi na? Wathi kuye: Ngibalekile ekamu lakwa - Israyeli.

UDavide wayesethi kuye : Bekunjani na ? Ake ungitshele . Wathi: Abantu babalekile empini , nabantu abani ngi bawile , bafa; oSawule noJonathani indodana yakhe bafile nabo.

UDavide wathi kuleyo nsizwa eyamtshelayo : Wazi kanjani ukuthi oSawule noJonathani indodana yakhe bafile na?

Wathi kimi: Wena ungubani na? Ngathi kuye: NgingumAmaleki.

Wathi kimi : Ake ume ngakimi , ungibulale, ngokuba ngishaywe yisiyezi, nokuphila kusekhona kimi.

Kwakukhona umuntu omubi ogama lakhe lalinguSheba indodana kaBikri umBenjamini; wabetha icilongo , wathi: Asinasabelo kuDavide , asinafa endodaneni kaJese; yiyani nonke ematendeni enu, Israyeli.

Kwase kumemeza owesifazane ohlakaniphileyo esemzini , wathi: Zwanini! Zwanini! Ake nithi kuJowabe: Sondela lapho ukuba ngikhulume nawe.

Wasondela kuye ; owesifazane wayesethi : Wena unguJowabe na ? Wathi: Nginguye. Wayesethi kuye : Yizwa amazwi encekukazi yakho . Wathi: Ngiyezwa.

Wathi-ke: Endulo babevama ukukhuluma ngokuthi : Kuyakubuzwa nokubuzwa e-Abela. Base beqeda.

UJowabe waphendula wathi : Makube kude , makube kude nami ukuba ngigwinye noma ngichithe.

Kwaba khon a indlala ezinsukwini zikaDavide iminyaka emithathu ngokulandelana; uDavide wafuna ubuso bukaJehova . UJehova wathi : Kungenxa kaSawule nangenxa yendlu yakhe yegazi , ngokuba wabulala abaseGibeyoni.

U-Ishibi Benobi wabantwana bamaRefa osisindo somkhonto wakhe sasingamashekeli angamakhulu amathathu ethusi , ebhince inkemba entsha , wathi uyakumbulala uDavide.

wathi-ke uDavide kwabaseGibeyoni : Nginenzele ntoni na ? Ngingenza ukubuyisana ngantoni ukuba nibusise ifa likaJehova na?

AbaseGibeyoni bathi kuye : Akundaba yesiliva negolide noSawule nendlu yakhe, futhi akundaba yokubulala umuntu kwa -Israyeli. Wathi: Enikushoyo ngiyakunenzela khona.

wathi: UJehova uyidwala lami, nenqaba yami, nomkhululi wami;

UDavide wanxanela , wathi: Hawu, sengathi ngingaphuziswa amanzi asemthonjeni waseBetlehema ongasesangweni.

Wathi: Makube kude nami , Jehova, ukuba ngenze lokhu ; kuyigazi lalabo bantu ababesuka besengozini. Akavumanga ukuwaphuza. Lezo zinto zenziwa yilawa maqhawe amathathu.

UNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli wathi, iDwala lika-Israyeli lakhuluma kimi ukuthi: Obusa abantu ngokulunga, abuse ngokumesaba uNkulunkulu,

UDavide wahlabeka enhliziyweni emva kokuba esebabalile abantu . UDavide wathi kuJehova : Ngonile kakhulu ngalokho engikwenzileyo ; kepha manje, Jehova, mawuthethelele ububi benceku yakho, ngokuba ngintumazele kakhulu.

Wathi ukuba uDavide avuke ekuseni, kwafika izwi likaJehova kumprofethi uGadi umboni kaDavide lokuthi:

UGadi wayesefika kuDavide , wamtshela, wathi kuye : Kufike kuwe yini iminyaka eyisikhombisa yendlala ezweni lakini, noma ubalekele izitha zakho izinyanga ezintathu zisakuxosha, noma kube khona izinsuku ezintathu zesifo ezweni lakini na ? Manje cabanga , ubone ukuthi yiliphi izwi engiyakulibuyisela kongithumileyo.

Lapho ingelosi yelula isandla sayo kulo iJerusalema ukulichitha , uJehova wazisola ngalobo bubi, wathi engelosini eyachitha abantu: Sekwanele; buyisa isandla sakho. Ingelosi kaJehova yayisesibuyeni sika-Arawuna umJebusi.

UDavide wathi kuJehova , lapho eyibona ingelosi eyayibabulala abantu : Bheka, mina ngonile, ngenzile okubi; kepha lezi zimvu zenzeni na ? Isandla sakho masibe phezu kwami naphezu kwendlu kababa. I-altare elisesibuyeni sika-Arawuna

UGadi wafika ngalolo suku kuDavide , wathi kuye : Yenyuka, ummisele uJehova i-altare esibuyeni sika-Arawuna umJebusi.

Wathi u -Arawuna: Kungani uku ba inkosi yami , inkosi, ifikile encekwini yayo na ? UDavide wathi : Ukuba ngithenge kuwe isibuya , ngimakhele uJehova i-altare, ukuze lesi sifo sinqamuke kubantu.

Kwathi emva kwalokho uDavide wabuza kuJehova, wathi: Ngenyukele yini komunye wemizi yakwaJuda na ? UJehova wathi kuye : Yenyuka. Wathi uDavide: Ngenyukelephi na? Wathi: EHebroni.

U-Abineri wathi kuJowabe : Ake zisuke izinsizwa , ziqakulizane phambi kwethu. UJowabe wathi: Mazisuke.

U-Abineri wabheka emuva, wathi: Ungu-Asaheli na? Wathi: Yimi.

U-Abineri wabuye wathi ku -Asaheli: Chezuka ekungilandeleni; yini ukuba ngikucekele phansi na ? Ngingaphakamisa kanjani ubuso bami ngakuJowabe umfowenu na?

U-Abineri wayesememeza kuJowabe , wathi: Inkemba iyakudla njalonjalo na? Awazi yini ukuthi kuyakuba khona umunyu ekugcineni na ? Koze kube nini ungabayali abantu ukuba babuye ekubalandeleni abafowabo na?

UJowabe wathi : Kuphila kukaNkulunkulu , uma ubungakhulumanga , ngempela abantu bonke bebeyakube sebenyukile kusasa ekuxosheni abafowabo.

UDavide wayesethuma izithunywa kubantu baseJabeshi Gileyadi , wathi kubo: Manibusiswe nguJehova , ngokuba nenzile lowo musa kuyo inkosi yenu, uSawule, nammbela.

Wathi: Kuhle; ngiyakwenza isivumelwano nawe , kepha yinto inye engiyifuna kuwe , ngeyokuthi awuyikubona ubuso bami , uma ungalethi kuqala phambi kwami uMikhali indodakazi kaSawule, lapho uzayo ukubona ubuso bami.

UJowabe wayeseya enkosini , wathi: Wenzeni na? Bheka, u-Abineri wafika kuwe; ummukiseleni wahamba nokuhamba na?

Esekuzwa lokho ngasemuva uDavide wathi: Mina nombuso wami asinacala phambi kukaJehova kuze kube phakade ngegazi lika -Abineri indodana kaNeri;

UDavide wathi kuJowabe nakubantu bonke ababe naye : Klebhulani izingubo zenu , nibhince indwangu yamasaka , nilile phambi kuka -Abineri. Inkosi uDavide yalandela uhlaka.

Bonke a bantu bafika ukuba bamdlise uDavide isinkwa kusesemini ; kepha uDavide wafunga wathi : Makenze njalo kimi uNkulunkulu , enezele futhi , uma ngidla isinkwa noma okunye lingakashoni ilanga.

U-Abineri wathukuthela kakhulu ngenxa yalawo mazwi ka -Ishi Bosheti , wathi: Ngiyikhanda lenja engeyakwaJuda na ? Namuhla ngiyayenzela indlu kaSawule uyihlo umusa , abafowabo nabangane bayo , angikunikelanga esandleni sikaDavide; nokho ungibeka icala namuhla ngalowo wesifazane.

UDavide waphendula oRekabi noBahana umfowabo amadodana kaRimoni waseBeyeroti, wathi kubo: Kuphila kukaJehova ohlengile umphefumulo wami osizini lonke,

UDavide wabuza kuJehova, wathi: Ngiyakwenyuka, ngihlasele amaFilisti na? Uyakuwanikela esandleni sami na ? UJehova wathi kuDavide : Yenyuka, ngokuba ngiyakuwanikela impela amaFilisti esandleni sakho.

Ngesikhathi esidlulileyo , uSawule eseyinkosi phezu kwethu , nguwe owakhipha nowangenisa u-Israyeli; uJehova wathi kuwe : Wena uyakwalusa abantu bami u-Israyeli, wena uyakuba ngumbusi wakwa-Israyeli.

UDavide wafika eBali Pherasimi , uDavide wawachitha khona ; wathi: UJehova ufohlile ezitheni zami phambi kwami njengokufohla kwamanzi . Ngalokho waqamba igama laleyo ndawo ngokuthi iBali Pherasimi.

Lapho uDavide ebuza kuJehova , wathi yena: Awuyikwenyuka; gwegwesa emva kwawo, uwafikele malungana namajikijolo.

UDavide wathi ngalolo suku: Yilowo nalowo ochitha amaJebusi makasukele emseleni wamanzi izinyonga nezimpumputhe lezo ezizondwa ngumphefumulo kaDavide ; ngalokho kuthiwa : Izimpumputhe nezinyonga azinakungena endlini.

UDavide wayesebuya ukubusisa indlu yakhe . UMikhali indodakazi kaSawule waphuma ukumhlangabeza uDavide, wathi: Yeka udumo lwenkosi ka-Israyeli namuhla, ezambulile namuhla emehlweni ezincekukazi zezinceku zakhe njengomunye wamayiyane, ezambula nokuzambula.

UDavide wamesaba uJehova ngalolo suku . Wathi: Umphongolo kaJehova uyakuza kanjani kimi na?

UDavide inkosi wayesengena , wahlala phambi kukaJehova , wathi: Ngingubani, Nkosi Jeh ova, nendlu yami iyini, ukuze ungilethe kuze kube lapha, na?

UNathani wathi enkosini : Hamba wenze konke okusenhliziyweni yakho , ngokuba uJehova unawe.

UDavide wathi : Usekhona yini osele endlini kaSawule ukuba ngimenzele umusa ngenxa kaJonathani na?

USiba wathi enkosini : Njengakho konke inkosi yami , inkosi, eyale ngakho inceku yayo, iyakwenze njalo inceku yakho. UMefibosheti uyakudla etafuleni lenkosi njengenye yamadodana enkosi.

Kwakukhona endlini kaSawule inceku egama layo linguSiba ; bambizela kuDavide; inkosi yathi kuye: UnguSiba na? Wathi: Inceku yakho inguye.

Inkosi yayisithi : Akusekho endlini kaSawule noyedwa engingamenzela umusa kaNkulunkulu na ? USiba wathi enkosini : UJonathani usenendodana elunyonga ngezinyawo.

Yathi inkosi kuye: Iphi na? USiba wathi enkosini: Bheka, isendlini kaMakiri indodana ka-Amiyeli eLo Debari.

UMefibosheti indodana kaJonathani kaSawule wafika kuDavide , wawa ngobuso, wakhuleka. UDavide wathi : Mefibosheti. Wathi: Nansi i nceku yakho.

Wakhuleka wathi: Iyini inceku yakho ukuba ubheke inja efileyo njengami na?

UJehova wathi kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli: Anginisindisanga yini kubo abaseGibithe, nakuwo ama-Amori, nakubo abantwana bakwa-Amoni, nakuwo amaFilisti, na?

UJefta wathuma izithunywa enkosini yabantwana bakwa -Amoni, wathi: Unamsebenzi muni nami ukuba uze kimi ukulwa nezwe lakithi na?

wathi kuyo : Usho kanje uJefta , uthi: U-Israyeli akathathanga izwe lakwaMowabi nezwe labantwana bakwa-Amoni.

u-Israyeli wathuma izithunyw a enkosini yakwa -Edomi, wathi: Ake ngidabule izwe lakho ; kepha inkosi yakwa -Edomi ayilalelanga ; nasenkosini yakwaMowabi wathuma kanjalo ; kepha ayivumanga; u-Israyeli wayesehlala eKadeshi.

U-Israyeli wayesethuma izithunywa kuSihoni inkosi yama -Amori, inkosi yaseHeshiboni; u-Israyeli wathi kuye: Ake sidabule izwe lakho, siye endaweni yethu.

UJefta wenza isith embiso kuJehova , wathi: Uma uyakunikela impela abantwana bakwa-Amoni esandleni sami,

Kwathi lapho eyibona , waklebhula izingubo zakhe , wathi: Hawu, mntanami, ungithobisile kakhulu , ungomunye wabangihluphayo , ngokuba ngivulile umlomo kuJehova, angisenakubuya.

Wathi kuye : Baba, uvulile umlomo wakho kuJehova ; yenza kimi njengokuphumileyo emlonyeni wakho, lokhu uJehova ekuphindisele ezitheni zakho, abantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Wathi: Hamba. Wayimukisa izinyanga ezimbili ; yamuka yona nabangane bayo, yalilela ubuntombi bayo ezintabeni.

UJefta wathi kumalunga akwaGileyadi : Aningizondanga yini , nangixosha endlini kababa na? Nizelani kimi manje nisekuhluphekeni na?

UJefta wathi kubo: Mina nabantu bami sasilwa kakhulu nabantwana bakwa- Amoni; nganibiza, aningisindisanga esandleni sabo.

Owesifazane was hesha, wagijima, wayitshela indoda yakhe , wathi kuyo : Bheka, ubonakele kimi lowo muntu owafika kimi ngolunye usuku.

UManowa wasukuma wamlandela umkakhe , wafika kulowo muntu , wathi kuye: Wena ungumuntu lowo owakhuluma kowesifazane na ? Wathi: Nginguye.

UManowa wathi engelosini kaJehova : Ngubani igama lakho ukuba , lapho esenzekile amazwi akho, sikudumise?

UManowa wathi kumkakhe : Siyakufa nokufa, ngokuba simbonile uNkulunkulu.

Kepha umkakhe wathi kuye: Uma uNkulunkulu ebethanda ukusibulala, nga engamukelanga esandleni sethu umnikelo wokushiswa nomnikelo wempuphu, futhi nga engasibonisanga konke lokho , nga engasitshelanga izinto njengalezi.

Kepha wathi kimi : Bheka, uyakukhulelwa, uzale indodana ; ngakho ungaphuzi wayini naluphuzo olunamandla , ungadli lutho olungcolileyo , ngokuba umntwana uyakuba ngumNaziri kaNkulunkulu kwasesizalweni kuze kube sosukwini lokufa kwakhe.

UManowa wayesemncenga uJehova, wathi: O Nkosi, umuntu kaNkulunkulu owamthumayo ake abuyele kithi, asifundise ukuthi siyakwenzani kumntwana ozakuzalwa.

USamsoni wathi kubo: Ake ngininike imfumbe; uma ningitshela yona kahle ngezinsuku eziyisikhombisa zedili , niyiqandele, ngiyakuninika amayembe angamashumi amathathu nezingubo zokuphendulela ezingamashumi amathathu;

UmkaSamsoni wakhala phambi kwakhe , wathi: Uyangizonda kuphela , awungithandi; unikile abakithi imfumbe, awungitshelanga yona. Wathi kuye: Bheka, angibatshelanga ubaba nomame, ngiyakukutshela wena na?

Abantu bom uzi bathi kuye ngosuku lwesikhombisa , lingakashoni ilanga : Kuyini okumnandi kunezinyosi ? Kuyini okunamandla kunengonyama na ? Wathi kubo: Uma beningalimanga ngesithokazi sami , ngabe ningayiqandelanga imfumbe yami.

Wakhuphuka, wabatshela uyise nonina , wathi: Ngibonile owesifazane eThimna wamadodakazi amaFilisti ; ngalokho ngithatheleni yena abe ngumkami.

Uyise nonina base bethi kuye : Akakho yini owesifazane phakathi kwamadodakazi abafowenu noma phakathi kwabo bonke abantu bami, ukuze uye kuthatha umfazi kumaFilisti angasokile , na? USamsoni wathi kuyise : Ngithathele yena, ngokuba uyathandeka kimi.

Kodwa kwathi emva kwesikhathi, ngesikhathi sokuvuna ukolweni, uSamsoni wahambela umkakhe enezinyane lembuzi ; wathi: Ngiyakungena kumkami ekamelweni. Kepha uyise kavumanga ukuba angene.

Abantu abayizinkulungwane ezintathu bakwaJuda behlela ofantwini lwedwala lase -Etamu, bathi kuSamsoni : Awukwazi yini ukuthi amaFilisti abusa phezu kwethu na ? Kuyini, pho, lokho okwenzile kithina na ? Wathi kubo: Njengalokho benza kimi, ngenze njalo kubo.

Base bethi kuye : Sehlele ukuba sikubophe , ukuze sikunikele esandleni samaFilisti. USamsoni wathi kubo : Fungani kimi ukuthi nina aniyikungisukela.

Wathi uSamsoni : Ngomhlathi wembongolo ngibulele inqwaba , yebo, izinqwaba ezimbili, ngomhlathi wembongolo abantu abayinkulungwane.

Wayesomile kakhulu, wakhala kuJehova, wathi: Wenzile lokhu kukhululeka okukhulu ngesandla senceku yakho ; kepha manje sengiyakufa ukoma , ngiwele esandleni sabangasokile.

Uyise wathi : Bengithi impela umalile nokumala ; ngalokho ngamnika umngane wakho; udadewabo omelamayo kamuhle kunaye na? Ake umthathe esikhundleni sakhe.

USamsoni wathi kubo : Okwalesi sikhathi anginacala kumaFilisti , uma ngiwenzela okubi.

USamsoni wathi kubo : Uma nenze njalo , impela ngiyakuphindisela kini , andukuba ngiyeke.

Wathi kuye : Uma bengibopha ngamagoda amasha okungasetshenziwan ga ngawo, ngiyakuba buthakathaka, ngibe njengomunye umuntu.

UDelila wayesethatha amagoda amasha , wambopha ngawo , wathi kuye : AmaFilisti aphezu kwakho , Samsoni. Abaqamekeli babehlezi ekamelweni eliphakathi. Wawagqabula ezingalweni zakhe njengomucwana.

UDelila wayesethi kuSamsoni: Kuze kube manje udlale ngami , wangitshela amanga; ngitshele ukuthi ungaboshwa ngani . Wathi kuye: Uma weluka amagoda ayisikhombisa ekhanda lami nezintambo zakho zokwelukwa.

Wawabethela-ke ngesikhonkwane, wathi kuye: AmaFilisti aphezu kwakho, Samsoni. Wavuka ebuthongweni , wasincothula isikhonkwane sokweluka nezintambo zokwelukwa.

Wamtshela inhliziyo yakhe yonke , wathi kuye : Akuthintanga mpuco ekhanda lami , ngokuba bengingumNaziri kaNkulunkulu kwasesizalweni sikamame; uma ngiphuculwa , amandla ami ayakumuka kimi , ngiyakuba buthakathaka, ngibe njengomunye umuntu.

UDelila wabona ukuthi wayemtshelile yonke inhliziyo yakhe ; wathuma wawabiza amakhosi amaFilisti , wathi: Yenyukani kalokhu , ngokuba ungitshelile yonke inhliziyo yakhe . Ayesenyukela kuye amakhosi amaFilisti , aletha imali esandleni sawo.

Wathi: AmaFilisti aphezu kwakho, Samsoni. Wavuka ebuthongweni, wathi: Ngiyakuphuma njengangezinye izikhathi , ngizithintithe. Kepha wayengazi ukuthi uJehova wayemukile kuye.

USamsoni wathi kumfana owayembambe ngesandla : Ngivumele ukuphatha izinsika indlu emi ngazo ukuba ngencike kuzo.

USamsoni wakhala kuJehova , wathi: Nkosi Nkulunkulu , ake ungikhumbule, ungiqinise kube kanye kuphela , Nkulunkulu, ukuba ngiphindise kumaFilisti ngempindiselo ibenye ngenxa yamehlo ami omabili.

USamsoni wathi: Mangife namaFilisti. Wakhothama ngamandla akhe onke, indlu yawela phezu kwamakhosi naphezu kwabo bonke abantu ababe kuyo . Abafileyo ababulalayo ekufeni kwakhe babebaningi kunabo ababulalayo ekuhambeni kwakhe.

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

USamsoni wathi kuye : Uma bengibopha ngezinsinga eziyisikhombisa ezimanzi ezingakomi, ngiyakuba buthakathaka, ngibe njengomunye umuntu.

Yena wathi kunina : Lezo zinhlamvu eziyinkulungwane nekhulu zesiliva ezathathwa kuwe, owaziqalekisa, wakhuluma ngazo ezindlebeni zami, bheka, leyo mali ikimi; ngayithatha. Unina wathi: Mayibusiswe nguJehova indodana yami.

Wabuyisela kunina lezo zinhlamvu eziyinkulungwane nekhulu zesiliva ; unina wathi: Ngiyangcwelisa impela leli siliva kuJehova esandleni sami , libe ngelendodana yami ukuba kwenziwe isithombe esibaziweyo nesibunjiweyo ; manje ngiyakulibuyisela kuwe.

UMika wathi kuye : Uvelaphi na? Wathi kuye: NgingumLevi waseBetlehema Juda; ngiyahamba ukubona lapho ngingathola khona indawo.

Labo sebengenile endlini kaMika basithatha isithombe esiba ziweyo, nengubo yamahlombe, namatherafi, nesithombe esibunjiweyo; umpristi wathi kubo: Nenzani na?

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

Wathi kubo: UMika ungenzele ukuthi nokuthi; ungiqashile ngaba ngumpristi wakhe.

Umpristi wathi kubo : Hambani nokuthula ; indlela eniyihambayo iphambi kukaJehova. Ukunqotshwa kweLayishi

Wathi kulo : Siyadlula sivela eBetlehema Juda , siya ohlangothini olungasemuva kwezintaba zakwa-Efrayimi; ngivela khona; ngaya eBetlehema Juda; sengiya endlini kaJehova , kepha akukho muntu ongamukela en dlini yakhe.

Bahlala phansi, badla, baphuza bobabili kanyekanye; uyise wentombi wathi kuyo indoda: Ake udele, ulale ubusuku, ithokoze inhliziyo yakho.

Wavuka ekuseni kakhulu ngosuku lwesihlanu ukuba ahambe ; uyise wentombi wathi : Ake uhlumelele inhliziyo yakho , nihlale lize lithambame ilanga. Badla-ke bobabili.

Lapho umuntu esesukuma ukuba ahambe , yena nesancinza sakhe nenceku yakhe, umukhwe wakhe , uyise wentombi, wathi kuye : Bheka, ilanga seliyathambama, sekuzakuhlwa; ake uhlale ubusuku bonke ; yebo, ilanga seliyakuphela; hlala lapha ukuba inhliziyo yakho ithokoze , nivuke kusasa ekuseni kakhulu, nihambe indlela yenu ukuba ufike etendeni lakho.

UKalebi wathi : Onqoba iKiriyati Seferi , alithathe, yena ngiyakumnika u - Akisa indodakazi yami abe ngumkakhe.

Kwathi ekufikeni kwakhe wamnxusa ukuba acele insimu kuyise ; wehla embongolweni yakhe; uKalebi wathi kuye: Ukhala ngani?

Wathi kuye : Ngiphe isipho ; lokhu unginike izwe laseningizimu ngiphe nemithombo yamanzi. UKalebi wamupha imithombo yasenhla nemithombo yasenzansi.

UJehova wathi: Kuyakukhuphuka uJuda; bheka, ngilinikele izwe esandleni sakhe.

Abantwana bakwa -Israyeli bavuka , bakhuphukela eBethele , babuza kuNkulunkulu, bathi: Ngubani oyakusik huphukelela kuqala ukulwa nabantwana bakwaBenjamini na? UJehova wathi: NguJuda kuqala.

Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bakhuphuka, bakhala phambi kukaNkulunkulu kwaze kwahlwa ; babuza kuJehova , bathi: Siyakuphinda sisondele ukulwa nabantwana bakwaBenjamini umfowethu na ? UJehova wathi : Yenyukelani kuye.

uFinehasi indodana ka -Eleyazare ka -Aroni wema phambi kwawo ngalezo zinsuku bathi: Siyakuphinda siphume ukuba silwe nabantwana bakwaBenjamini umfowethu, nokuba siyeke na? UJehova wathi: Khuphukani, ngokuba kusasa ngiyakubanikela esandleni sakho.

UmLevi, umyeni wowesifazane ow ayebulewe, waphendula wathi : Ngafika eGibeya lakwaBenjamini, mina nesancinza sami, ukulala khona.

Intukuthelo kaJehova yavuthela u-Israyeli, wathi: Ngokuba lesi sizwe seqile isivumelwano sami engabayala ngaso oyise, singalalelanga izwi lami,

Kepha yena wabuya endaweni yezithombe ezibaziweyo engaseGiligali , wathi: Nginendaba eyisifuba kuwe nkosi. Wathi: Thulani. Base bephuma bonke ababemi ngakuye.

Wathi kubo : Ngilandeleni, ngokuba uJehova u nikele izitha zenu abakwaMowabi esandleni senu ! Behla emva kwakhe , bavimba amazibuko aseJordani ababewela ngawo abakwaMowabi , abavumanga ukuba kuwele muntu.

UJayeli waphuma ukumhlan gabeza uSisera, wathi kuye: Phambuka, nkosi yami; phambukela kimi , ungesabi. Waphambukela kuye etendeni , wamembesa ingubo.

Wathi kuye: Yima emnyango wetende; kuyakuthi nxa kufika umuntu abuze kuwe athi: Kukhona muntu lapha na? uthi: Qha.

UBaraki wathi kuye : Uma uhamba nami , ngiyakuhamba; kepha uma ungahambi nami, angiyikuhamba.

Wathi kuye: Impela ngiyakuhamba nawe, kodwa indlela oyakuhamba ngayo ayiyikuba ngeyodumo lwakho , ngokuba uJehova uyakumthengisa uSisera esandleni sowesifazane . Wayesesuka uDebora , wahamba noBaraki , baya eKedeshi.

UJehova wambheka , wathi: Hamba ngalawa mandla akho , umsindise u - Israyeli esandleni sakwaMidiyani; angikuthumanga na?

Wathi kuye : O Nkosi, ngiyakumsindisa u -Israyeli ngantoni na ? Bheka, umndeni wami umpofu kwaManase, mina ngingomncinyane endlini kababa.

UJehova wathi kuye : Impela ngiyakuba nawe ; uyakubabulala abakwaMidiyani kungathi bangumuntu munye.

Bakubona abantwana bakwa -Israyeli, bathi omunye komunye : Yini le ? ngokuba babengazi ukuthi kuyini . UMose wathi kubo : Kuyisinkwa uJehova aninike sona ukuba nisidle.

Wathi kuzo : Lokhu kuyikho uJehova akukhulumileyo : kusasa kulusuku lokuphumula, isabatha elingcwele likaJehova ; yosani lokho eniyakukosa , nipheke lokho eniyakukupheka , nizibekele konke okuseleyo , kulondolozwe kuze kuse.

UJehova wathi kuMose : Kulobe lokhu kube yisikhumbuzo encwadini , ukubeke ezindlebeni zikaJoshuwa ukuthi ngizakuqothula ukukhunjulwa kuka-Amaleki phansi kwezulu.

Wathi: Isandla singasesihlalweni sobukhosi sikaJehova sokuthi uJehova uyakulwa no-Amaleki izizukulwane ngezizukulwane.

Ngalokho abantu baphikisana noMose, bathi: Siphe amanzi, siphuze. UMose wathi kubo: Yini ukuba niphikisane nami na? Nimlingelani uJehova na?

UJehova wathi kuMose: Dlulela phambi kwabantu, uthathe amalunga akwa- Israyeli; nenduku yakho owashaya ngayo umfula , yiphathe ngesandla sakho, uhambe.

UMose wathi kuJoshuwa : Sikhethele amadoda , uphume ulwe no -Amaleki; kusasa ngizakuma esiqongweni sentaba , induku kaNkulunkulu isesandleni sami.

Wathi uJetiro : Makabongwe uJehova onophulile esandleni sabaseGibithe nasesandleni sikaFaro, ebophulile abantu phansi kwesandla sabaseGibithe.

Umukhwe kaMose esebona konke abenzela khona abantu , wathi: Kuyini lokhu obenzela khona bantu na ? Uhlalelani wedwa , abantu bonke bemi ngakuwe kusukela ekuseni kuze kuhlwe na?

UJehova wathi kuMose : Bheka, ngiza kuwe ngefu elinzima ukuba abantu bezwe, nxa ngikhuluma nawe , bakholwe nguwe kuze kube phakade . UMose walandisa uJehova amazwi abantu.

UNkulunkulu wakhuluma onke lawa mazwi, wathi:

Wathi kuMose: Khuphukela kuJehova, wena no-Aroni, noNadabi, no-Abihu, namalunga angamashumi ayisikhombisa akwa-Israyeli, nikhuleke nikude.

Wathi kumalunga: Manisihlalele lapha, size sibuyele kini; bhekani, o-Aroni noHure bakini; yilowo nalowo onendaba makaye kubo.

Waphuma nangosuku olulandelayo ; bheka, nanko amadoda amabili amaHeberu exabene; wathi kowonileyo: Umshayelani owakini na?

Wathi yena: Ngubani okumise induna nomahluleli phezu kwethu na? Ufuna ukungibulala mina , njengalokho ubulele owas eGibithe, na? UMose wayesesaba, ethi: Impela le ndaba iyazeka.

Lapho esefika kuRehuweli uyise , wathi yena: Yini ukuba nisheshe nibuye namuhla na?

Wathi kuwo amadodakazi akhe: Uphi yena? Nimshiyeleni na? Mbizeni, eze ukuzokudla.

Wazala indodana, wayiqamba igama lokuthi uGereshomu , ngokuba wathi: Ngangingumfokazi ezweni elingesilo elami.

Khumbula o-Abrahama, no-Isaka, no-Israyeli, izinceku zakho, owazifungela kubo, wathi kubo: Ngiyakwandisa inzalo yenu ibe ngangezinkanyezi zezulu, nginike inzalo yenu lonke leli zwe engikhulumile ngalo , idle ifa lalo kuze kube phakade.

UJoshuwa wezwa umsindo wabantu bekhamuluka, wathi kuMose: Kukhona umsindo wempi ekamu.

Wathi: Akusilo izwi labahalalisa ngokunqoba , akusilo izwi lokukhala ngokunqotshwa, kepha ngizwa umsindo wabahlabelelayo.

UMose wathi ku -Aroni: Benzeni kuwe laba bantu ukuba ubehlisele isono esingaka na?

Wathi u-Aroni: Ulaka lwenkosi yami malungavuthi ; uyabazi abantu ukuthi bathanda ububi.

uMose wayesema esangweni lekamu , wathi: AbakaJehova mabeze kimi . Onke amadodana kaLevi ayesebuthana kuye.

Kwathi ngangomuso uMose wathi kubantu : Nenzile isono esikhulu ; sengiyakukhuphukela kuJehova , uma mhlawumbe ngingenza ukubuyisana ngesono senu.

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

U-Aroni wakubona , wakha i -altare phambi kwalo ; u-Aroni wamemezela wathi: Kusasa kuzakuba khona umkhosi kaJehova.

UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi: Hamba wehle, ngokuba abantu bakho owabakhuphula ezweni laseGibithe benzile isono;

UJehova wathi kuMose : Ngibabonile laba bantu ; bheka, bangabantu abantamo ilukhuni.

UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi: Hamba wenyuke lapha, wena nabantu obakhuphulile ezweni laseGibithe , uye ezweni engalifungela ku -Abrahama, naku-Isaka, nakuJakobe, ngathi: Ngiyakulinika inzalo yakho.

UMose wathi kuJehova : Bheka, uthi kimi : Khuphula laba bantu , kepha awungazisanga yena oyakumthuma nami . Nokho ushilo ukuthi : Ngiyakwazi ngegama, ufumene umusa emehlweni ami.

Wathi kuye: Uma ungahambi wena uqobo, ungasikhuphuli lapha.

UJehova wathi kuMose : Ngiyakwenza nalokho okushiloyo , ngokuba ufumene umusa emehlweni ami; ngiyakwazi ngegama.

UMose wabutha yo nke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, wathi kuyo: Yilawa mazwi awayalile uJehova ukuba niwenze.

UMose wathi kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli: Bhekani, uJehova ubize ngegama uBesaleli indodana ka-Uri kaHure, owesizwe sakwaJuda;

UMose wakhuluma kuyo yonke inhlangano yabantwana bakwa -Israyeli, wathi: Yile nto ayale ngayo uJehova, ethi:

Wathi: Ngizakuba nawe ngempela ; lokhu kuyakuba luphawu kuwe ukuthi ngikuthumile; nxa ukhiphile isizwe eGibithe , niyakumkhonza uNkulunkulu kule ntaba.

UNkulunkulu wathi kuMose : Nginguye enginguye. Wathi: Uzakusho njalo kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi: UNgikhona ungithumile.

UNkulunkulu wathi futhi kuMose: Uzakusho njalo kubo abantwana bakwa - Israyeli, uthi: UJehova, uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo, uNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama, noNkulunkulu ka -Isaka, noNkulunkulu kaJakobe , ungithumile kini . Yileli eliyigama lami kuze kube phakade , lesi siyisikhumbuzo sami ezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwane.

Hamba ubuthe amalunga akwa-Israyeli, uthi kuwo: UJehova, uNkulunkulu wawoyihlo, uNkulunkulu ka -Abrahama noka -Isaka nokaJakobe , ubonakele kimi, wathi: Nginihambele nokuniha mbela, ngibonile okwenziwa kini eGibithe.

UNkulunkulu esebona ukuthi uyaphambuka ukuyobuka , uNkulunkulu wambiza ephakathi kwesihlahla, wathi: Mose, Mose!

Wathi: Ngilapha. Wayesethi: Ungasondeli lapha; khumula izicathulo zakho ezinyaweni zakho, ngokuba indawo omi kuyo ingumhlabathi ongcwele.

Wathi: NginguNkulunkulu kayihlo , uNkulunkulu ka -Abrahama, noNkulunkulu ka -Isaka, noNkulunkulu kaJakobe ; uMose wasitha ubuso bakhe, ngokuba wesaba ukumbheka uNkulunkulu.

UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:

UMose waphendula wathi : Kepha bheka , abayikukholwa yimi , bangalaleli izwi lami, ngokuba bayakusho ukuthi: UJehova akabonakalanga kuwe.

Kepha wathi: O Nkosi, ake uthume ngesandla salowo ozakumthuma.

Intukuthelo kaJehova yamvuthela uMose ; wathi: Akakho umfowenu u- Aroni, umLevi, na? Ngiyazi ukuthi ukhuluma kahle yena . Futhi bheka , uyaphuma ukukuhlangabeza; nalapho ekubona , uyakuthokoza enhliziyweni yakhe.

Wayesehamba uMose , wabuyela kuJetiro umukhwe wakhe , wathi kuye : Ake ngihambe , ngibuyele kubafowethu abaseGibithe , ngize ngibone ukuthi basekhona yini. UJetiro wathi kuMose: Hamba nokuthula.

UJehova wathi kuMose kwaMidiyani : Hamba ubuyele eGibithe , ngokuba sebafa abantu bonke abafuna ukukubulala.

Wayesethi kuye uJehova : Kuyini lokhu okusesandle ni sakho na ? Wathi: Yinduku.

UJehova wathi kuMose: Ekuhambeni kwakho usubuyela eGibithe bhekisisa ukuba wenze ebusweni bukaFaro zonke izimangaliso engizibeke esandleni sakho; kepha mina ngiyakuyenza lukhuni inhliziyo yakhe ; akayikubayeka abantu ukuba bahambe.

USipora wayesethatha insengetsha, wanquma ijwabu lendodana yakhe , waliphonsa ngasezinyaweni zakhe, wathi: Impela ungumyeni wegazi kimi.

Wamdedela-ke. Khona wathi: Ngumyeni wegazi ngenxa yokusoka.

Khona wathi: Yiphonse phansi. Wayeseyiphonsa phansi. Yaphenduka inyoka; uMose wayibalekela.

UJehova wathi futhi kuye : Faka isandla sakho esifubeni sakho . Wayesefaka isandla sakhe esifubeni sakhe ; lapho esesikhipha , bheka, isandla sakhe sasinochoko, sinjengeqhwa.

Kepha wathi : Yinina enenqena , yebo, niyenqena; ngalokho nithi : Ake sihambe sihlabele uJehova.

Wathi uFaro : Ngubani uJehova ukuba ngilalele izwi lakhe , ngimyeke u- Israyeli ukub a ahambe na ? Angimazi uJehova , futhi angiyikumvumela u - Israyeli ukuba ahambe.

UMose wayesebuyela kuJehova, wathi: Nkosi, wenzeleni okubi kulaba bantu na? Ungithumeleni mina na?

UFaro wathi : Bheka, abantu sebebaningi ezweni , nokho niyabaphumuza emithwalweni yabo.

Ngalona lolo suku uFaro wayala abaphathi babantu nezinduna zabo, wathi:

UJehova wathi kuMose: Manje usuzakubona lokho engiyakukwenza kuFaro, ngokuba ngenxa yesandla esiqinileyo uyakubayeka ukuba bahambe , nangenxa yesandla esinamandla uyakubaxosha ezweni lakhe.

UJehova wakhuluma kuMose, wathi:

UMose wakhuluma ebusweni bukaJehova , wathi: Bheka, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli abangilalelanga ; uFaro angangilalela kanjani , nginezindebe zomlomo ezingasokwanga, na?

UNkulunkulu wakhuluma kuMose, wathi kuye: NginguJehova;

uJehova washo kuMo se, wathi: NginguJehova; khuluma kuFaro inkosi yaseGibithe konke engikukhuluma kuwe.

UJehova wathi kuMose: Bheka, ngikwenze ube njengonkulunkulu kuFaro ; u-Aroni umfowenu uyakuba ngumprofethi wakho.

UJehova wathi kuMose: Yisho ku-Aroni, uthi: Thatha induku yakho, welule isandla sakho phezu kwamanzi aseGibithe , naphezu kwemifula , naphezu kweminonjana yabo , naphezu kweziziba , naphezu kwamachibi amanzi abo onke ukuba aphenduke igazi , kube khona igazi ezweni lonke l aseGibithe ezitsheni zemithi nasezitsheni zamatshe.

UJehova wakhuluma koMose no-Aroni, wathi:

Wayesethi: Ngomuso. Wathi: Makube njengezwi lakho ukuba wazi ukuthi akakho onjengaye uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu.

Khona uFaro wababiz a oMose no -Aroni, wathi: Hambani nihlabele uNkulunkulu wenu kuleli zwe.

Wathi uMose : Bheka, ngiyaphuma kuwe ; ngiyakuncenga uJehova ukuba izibawu zimuke , zisuke kuFaro , nakuzo izinceku zakhe , nakubantu bakhe ngomuso; kodwa uFaro angabuyi akhohlise ngokungavumeli abantu ukuba bahambe bahlabele uJehova.

UJehova wathi kuMose: Yisho ku-Aroni, uthi: Yelula isandla sakho nenduku yakho phezu kwemifula , naphezu kweminonjana , naphezu kweziziba , wenyusele ezweni laseGibithe.

Khona uFaro wababiza oMose no -Aroni, wathi: Ncengani uJehova ukuba asuse amasele kimi nakubantu bami; ngizakuvumela abantu ukuba bahambe, bahlabele uJehova.

UMose wathi kuFaro : Ziphakamise phezu kwami , usho ukuthi ngizakukuncengela ngasiphi isikhathi wena nezinceku zakho , nabantu bakho ukuba achithwe amasele kuwe nasezindlini zakho, asale emfuleni kuphela.

UFaro wath uma wababiza oMose no -Aroni, wathi kubo : Ngonile lesi sikhathi; uJehova ulungile, kepha mina nabantu bami sibabi.

UJehova wanquma isikhathi, wathi: Kusasa uJehova uzakwenza lokhu ezweni.

UMemukhani wathi phambi kwenkosi nezikhulu : UVashiti, inkosikazi, akonanga enkosini kuphela , kepha nakuzo zonke izikhulu nakubantu bonke abasezifundeni zenkosi u-Ahashiveroshi.

UHamani wathi enkosini u -Ahashiveroshi: Kukhona isizwe esithile esihlakazekile, sisakazekile phakathi kwabantu bezifunda zonke zombuso wakho; nemithetho yaso yahlukene neyezizwe zonke; futhi asigcini imithetho yenkosi; ngalokho akufanele ukuba inkosi isiyeke.

UHamani wathi futhi : U-Esteri, inkosikazi, akangenisanga muntu kanye nenkosi edilini alilungisileyo ngaphandle kwami; nakusasa mina ngimenyiwe nguye kanye nenkosi.

Wathi u-Esteri: Uma kukuhle enkosini , inkosi noHamani mabeze namuhla edilini engiyilungisele lona.

Yayisithi inkosi kuye: Umuntu inkosi ethanda ukumdumisa wenzelwani na ? UHamani wathi enhliziyweni yakhe : Ngubani inkosi ebiyakuthanda ukumenzela udumo ngaphandle kwami na?

U-Esteri wathi : Ngumuntu omelene nathi , oyisitha, uHamani lo omubi . UHamani wayeseshaywa luvalo phambi kwenkosi nenkosikazi.

Wathi: Uma kukuhle enkosini , noma ngifumene umusa phambi kwayo , noma le nto ilungile phambi kwenkosi , uma ngithandeka emehlweni ayo , makulotshwe ukuba zibuyiswe izincwadi zamacebo kaHamani indodana kaHamedatha umAgagi azilobayo ukuba bachithwe abaJuda abasezifundeni zenkosi;

U-Esteri wathi : Uma kukuhle enkosini , abaJuda abaseShushani mabavunyelwe nakusasa ukwenza njengomthetho wanamuhla , aphanyekwe amadodana ayishumi kaHamani emthini.

U-Ezra, umpristi, wasukuma, wathi kubo : Niphambukile nithathe abesifazane babezizwe ukwandisa icala lakwa-Israyeli.

UShekaniya, indodana ka Jehiyeli, enye yamadodana ka -Elamu, wathatha wathi ku -Ezra: Siphambukile kuNkulunkulu wethu , sithathe abesifazane babezizwe kubantu bezwe. Nokho lisekhona ithemba ku-Israyeli ngale nto.

wathi kuye : Thatha lezi zitsha , uye uzibeke ethempelini eliseJerusalema , indlu kaNkulunkulu yakhiwe endaweni yayo.

Wena wathi enhliziyweni yakho : Ngiyakukhuphukela ezulwini , ngiphakamise isihlalo sami sobukhos i phezu kwezinkanyezi zikaNkulunkulu, ngihlale entabeni yomhlangano ngasekugcineni kwasenyakatho.

UJehova Sebawoti ufungile , wathi: Impela njengokulinganisa kwami kuyakuba njalo, nanjengokunquma kwami kuyakuma kanjalo

Ngokuba uJehova ushilo kimi kanje , wathi: Ngiyakubheka ngithule , ngisendaweni yami , njengokubalela okukhazimula ekukh anyeni kwelanga , njengefu lamazolo ekufudumaleni ngesikhathi sokuvuna.
