7 Bazalwane, anginilobeli umyalo omusha, kodwa umyalo omdala enaninawo kwasekuqaleni. Umyalo omdala uyizwi enalizwa kwasekuqaleni.
8 Futhi nginilobela umyalo omusha, okuliqiniso kuye nakini, ngokuba ubumnyama buyadlula, nokukhanya kweqiniso sekuyakhanya.
9 Lowo othi usekukhanyeni, kodwa ezonda umzalwane wakhe, usebumnyameni kuze kube manje.
10 Lowo othanda umzalwane wakhe uhlala ekukhanyeni, njalo kakulasikhubekiso kuye.
11 Kepha ozonda umzalwane wakhe usebumnyameni, uhamba ebumnyameni, akazi lapho eya khona, ngokuba ubumnyama buwaphuphuthekisile amehlo akhe.
12 Ngiyalibhalela, bantwanyana, ngoba izono zenu zithethelelwe ngenxa yebizo lakhe.

15 Ningathandi izwe nezinto ezisezweni. Uma umuntu ethanda izwe, uthando lukaBaba alukho kuye.
16 Ngokuba konke okusezweni, inkanuko yenyama, nenkanuko yamehlo, nokuzigabisa ngalokhukuphila, akuveli kuYise, kodwa kuvela ezweni.
17 Izwe liyadlula kanye nenkanuko yalo, kepha owenza intando kaNkulunkulu uhlala kuze kube phakade.
18 Bantwanyana, sekuyisikhathi sokugcina, njengalokho nezwa ukuthi umphikukristu uyeza, nakalokhu sekukhona abaphikukristu abaningi; ngalokho siyazi ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokugcina.
19 Baphuma kithi, kodwa babengesibo abakithi; ngoba uba babengabakithi, ngabe bahlala lathi;
20 Kodwa nina ninokugcotshwa okuvela koNgcwele, futhi niyazi zonke izinto.
21 Kangilibhalelanga ngoba lingalazi iqiniso, kodwa ngoba lilazi, lokuthi kakulamanga avela eqinisweni.
22 Ngubani ongumqambimanga ngaphandle kwalowo ophika ukuthi uJesu unguKristu na? Ungumphikukristu, ophika uYise neNdodana.
23 Ophika iNdodana akanaye uYise, kepha ovuma iNdodana unaye noYise.
24 Ngakho-ke lokho enakuzwa kusukela ekuqaleni makuhlale kini. Uma lokho enakuzwa kwasekuqaleni kuhlala kini, nani niyohlala eNdodaneni nakuBaba.
25 Yilesi isithembiso asithembisa sona: ukuphila okuphakade.
26 Nginilobele lezi zinto ngabadukisayo.
27 Kepha ukugcotshwa enakwemukela kuye kuhlala kini, anidingi ukuba ubani anifundise, nihlale kuye.
28 Manje, bantwanyana, hlalani kuye; ukuze kuthi, nxa esebonakala, sibe lesibindi, singabi lenhloni phambi kwakhe ekufikeni kwakhe.
29 Uma nazi ukuthi ulungile, yazini ukuthi wonke owenza ukulunga uzelwe nguye.

9 Inkosi yasithuma kuye umthetheli-mashumi-mahlanu, enamashumi omahlanu akhe. Wakhuphukela kuye, bheka, wayehlezi esiqongweni sentaba. Wathi kuye: “Wena muntu kaNkulunkulu, inkosi yathi: Yehla;
10 UEliya waphendula, wathi enduneni yamashumi ayisihlanu: “Uma ngingumuntu kaNkulunkulu, makwehle umlilo ezulwini, ukudle wena namashumi omahlanu akho. Kwehla umlilo ezulwini, wayiqeda yona namashumi ayisihlanu ayo.
11 Wathuma kuye enye induna yamashumi ayisihlanu inamashumi ayisihlanu ayo. Wasephendula wathi kuye: O muntu kaNkulunkulu, itsho njalo inkosi: Yehla masinyane;
12 U-Eliya waphendula wathi kubo: “Uma ngingumuntu kaNkulunkulu, makwehle umlilo ezulwini, ukudle wena namashumi omahlanu akho. Wehla umlilo kaNkulunkulu ezulwini, wayiqeda yena namashumi ayisihlanu akhe.
13 Waphinda wathuma induna yesithathu yabangamashumi amahlanu kanye nabangamashumi amahlanu bayo. Inkosi yesithathu yabangamashumi ayisihlanu yakhuphuka, yafika yaguqa ngamadolo phambi kuka-Eliya, yamncenga, yathi kuye: “O muntu kaNkulunkulu, gcina umphefumulo wami nomphefumulo walaba bakhonzi bakho abangamashumi ayisihlanu. Ube yigugu emehlweni akho.
14 Bheka, kwehla umlilo ezulwini, washisa izinduna ezimbili zamashumi ayisihlanu zokuqala kanye namashumi ayisihlanu azo; ngalokho ukuphila kwami kumelwe kube yigugu manje emehlweni akho.
15 Ingelosi kaJehova yathi ku-Eliya: “Yehla naye; ningamesabi. Wasukuma wehla naye waya enkosini.
16 Wathi kuye: “Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: ‘Ngenxa yokuthi uthume izithunywa ukuyabuza kuBali Zebhubi unkulunkulu wase-Ekroni, akungoba kungekho Nkulunkulu kwa-Israyeli ongabuza izwi lakhe na? ngalokho ungehli kulowo mbhede okhwele kuwo, kepha uyakufa nokufa.
17 Wafa njengezwi likaJehova alikhulumayo u-Eliya. UJoramu wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe ngomnyaka wesibili kaJoramu indodana kaJehoshafathi inkosi yakoJuda; ngoba wayengelandodana.

2 Ngokuba omunye ukholwa ukuthi angadla konke; omunye obuthakathaka udla imifino.
3 Odlayo makangadeleli ongadli; futhi ongadliyo makangahluleli odlayo, ngokuba uNkulunkulu umamukele.
4 Ungubani wena owahlulela inceku yomunye na? ukuma noma ukuwa enkosini yaso. Yebo, uyakuphakanyiswa, ngokuba uNkulunkulu unamandla okummisa.
5 Omunye wazisa olunye usuku kunolunye, omunye wazisa izinsuku zonke. Yilowo nalowo makaqiniseke kweyakhe ingqondo.
6 Ohlonipha usuku ulugcina eNkosini; futhi lowo ongalunanzi usuku, eNkosini. Odlayo udla eNkosini, ngokuba ubonga uNkulunkulu; nongadliyo akadli ngenxa yeNkosi, futhi ubonga uNkulunkulu.
7 Ngokuba akakho phakathi kwethu oziphilela yena, akakho ozifela yena.
8 Ngokuba noma siphila, siphilela iNkosi; noma sifa, sifela iNkosi; ngakho-ke noma siphila, noma sifa, singabeNkosi.
9 Ngoba ngenxa yalokhu uKristu wafa, wabuye wavuka, waphila, ukuze abe yiNkosi yabafileyo nabaphilayo.
10 Kepha umahlulelani umfowenu na? Udelelani umfowenu na? ngoba sonke siyakuma phambi kwesihlalo sokwahlulela sikaKristu.
11 Ngokuba kulotshiwe ukuthi: “Kuphila kwami,” isho iNkosi, “amadolo onke ayakuguqa phambi kwami, nezilimi zonke ziyakudumisa uNkulunkulu.
12 Ngakho-ke yilowo nalowo kithi uyakuziphendulela kuNkulunkulu.
13 Ngakho-ke masingabe sisahlulelana, kepha kunalokho yahlulelani lokhu, ukuba kungabikho obeka isikhubekiso noma isikhubekiso endleleni yomzalwane.

18 Ngokuba okhonza uKristu ngalezizinto uyemukeleka kuNkulunkulu, ukholekile ebantwini.
19 Ngakho-ke kasilandeleni izinto eziletha ukuthula lezinto esingakhana ngazo.
20 Ungawuchithi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngokudla. Zonke izinto zihlanzekile; kodwa kubi kulowomuntu odla ngokukhubeka.
21 Kuhle ukungadli inyama, nokungaliphuzi iwayini, nokunye umfowenu akhubeka ngakho, akhubeke, noma abe buthakathaka.
22 Ulokholo na? ube nakho phambi kukaNkulunkulu. Ubusisiwe ongazilahliyo kulokho akuvumelayo.
23 Ongabazayo, uma edla, ulahliwe, ngokuba engadli ngokukholwa; ngokuba konke okungaveli ekukholweni kuyisono.

1 Isiprofetho ngeDamaseku. Bheka, iDamaseku liyasuswa lingabe lisaba umuzi, libe yinqwaba yezincithakalo.
2 Imizi yase-Aroweri iyihlane; ayoba ngeyezimvu ezibuthisayo, futhi akukho muntu oyoyethusa.
3 Inqaba iyakuma kwa-Efrayimi, nombuso waseDamaseku, nensali yase-Aramu; bayakuba njengenkazimulo yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli,” usho uJehova Sebawoti.
4 Kuyakuthi ngalolo suku inkazimulo kaJakobe ibe ncane, amanoni enyama yakhe abe ncane.
5 Kuyoba njengalapho umvuni ebutha ukolweni futhi enquma izikhwebu ngengalo yakhe; futhi kuyoba njengalowo obuza izikhwebu esigodini samaRefa.
6 Kepha kuyosala izithelo zomvini ezingavunwanga, njengokunyakaziswa komnqumo, izithelo ezimbili noma ezintathu esiqongweni segatsha eliphezulu, ezine noma eziyisihlanu emagatsheni awo athelayo ekugcineni, usho uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
7 Ngalolo suku umuntu uyobheka kuMenzi wakhe, futhi amehlo akhe ayobheka koNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
8 Akayikubheka ama-altare, umsebenzi wezandla zakhe, anganaki lokho okwenziwe yiminwe yakhe, iziqu zemithi nezithombe.
9 Ngalolo suku, imizi yakhe enamandla iyakuba njengegatsha elishiyiweyo nesiqongo abasishiyile ngenxa yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, libe yihlane.
10 Ngenxa yokuthi ukhohliwe uNkulunkulu wensindiso yakho, awuzange ucabange ngedwala lamandla akho, ngakho-ke kufanele utshale izitshalo ezinhle, uzibeke ezitshalweni ezingaziwayo.
11 Ngosuku oyohlumisa ngalo isitshalo sakho, futhi ekuseni uyokwenza imbewu yakho iqhakaze; kodwa ukuvuna kuyakuba yithemba ngosuku losizi nolokudabuka okukhulu.
12 Maye ngobuningi bezizwe ezibanga umsindo njengokuhlokoma kolwandle; nangomsindo wezizwe ezibanga umsindo njengomsindo wamanzi anamandla!
13 Izizwe ziyobhonga njengokuhlokoma kwamanzi amaningi, kodwa uNkulunkulu uyozisola, futhi ziyobalekela kude futhi zixoshwe njengamakhoba ezintabeni phambi komoya nanjengokuhenguza phambi kwesiphepho.
14 Bheka, kusihlwa igagasi liba nosizi; futhi ngaphambi kokusa akasekho. Lesi yisabelo sabasiphangayo, nesiphetho sabasiphangayo.

12 Kepha uma umuntu akha phezu kwalesi sisekelo ngegolide, nesiliva, namatshe anenani, nemithi, notshani, nezinhlanga;
13 Umsebenzi walowo nalowo uyakubonakaliswa, ngokuba usuku luyakuwudalula, ngokuba uyakwambulwa ngomlilo; nomsebenzi walowo nalowo umlilo uyakuvivinya ukuthi unjani.

15 Uma umsebenzi womuntu usha, uyakulahlekelwa nguye, kepha yena ngokwakhe uyakusindiswa; nokho kungathi ngomlilo.

Amahubo 10 : 1 – 18
1 Jehova, umeleni kude na? nicashelani ngezikhathi zokuhlupheka na?
2 Omubi ngokuzigqaja kwakhe uyazingela ompofu; mababanjwe ngamasu abawaqambile.
3 Ngokuba omubi uyazigabisa ngokufisa kwenhliziyo yakhe, abusise ohahayo, uJehova amzondayo.
4 Omubi akayikumfuna uNkulunkulu ngokuzikhukhumeza kobuso bakhe; uNkulunkulu akekho kuyo yonke imicabango yakhe.
5 Izindlela zakhe zinzima njalo; izahlulelo zakho zikude nobuso bakhe; zonke izitha zakhe, Uzivuthela phezu kwazo.
6 Wathi enhliziyweni yakhe: “Angiyikunyakaziswa, ngokuba angiyikuba sebubini kuze kube phakade.”
7 Umlomo wakhe ugcwele isiqalekiso nenkohliso nenkohliso; ngaphansi kolimi lwakhe kukhona okubi nokubi.
8 Uhlezi eziphepheni zemizi; ekucashile uyabulala ongenacala; amehlo akhe aphezu kwabampofu.
9 Uqamekela njengengonyama emphandwini wayo; uqamekela ukubamba abampofu; uyabamba ompofu lapho emdonsela enetheni lakhe.
10 Uyaguqa futhi uyazithoba, ukuze ompofu awe kanye namandla akhe.
11 Wathi enhliziyweni yakhe: “UNkulunkulu ukhohliwe; Uyafihla ubuso bakhe; akasoze ayibona.
12 Vuka, Jehova; O Nkulunkulu, phakamisa isandla sakho; ningabakhohlwa abathobekileyo.
13 Kungani ababi bedelela uNkulunkulu? wathi enhliziyweni yakhe: Kawuyikufuna.
14 Wena wakubona; ngokuba ubona ububi nobubi ukuba ukuphindise ngakho ngesandla sakho; abampofu bayazinikela kuwe; ungumsizi wentandane.
15 Uyaphula ingalo yomubi kanye nomubi; funani ububi bakhe, nize ningabufumani.
16 UJehova uyinkosi kuze kube phakade naphakade; izizwe zabhubha ezweni lakhe.
17 Nkosi, uzwile isifiso sabathobekileyo; Uyakulungisa inhliziyo yabo, wenze indlebe yakho izwe.
18 Ukwahlulela izintandane nabacindezelweyo, ukuze umuntu wasemhlabeni angabe esacindezela.

1 IMaskili lika-Asafa. Nkulunkulu, usilahleleni kuze kube phakade na? intukuthelo yakho ithunqeleni izimvu zedlelo lakho na?
2 Cabanga ngebandla lakho owalithenga endulo; intonga yefa lakho owayihlenga; intaba yaseSiyoni owawuhlala kuyo.
3 Phakamiselani izinyawo zenu ezincithakalweni zaphakade; nakho konke isitha esikwenzileyo okubi endlini engcwele.
4 Izitha zakho zibhongile phakathi kwemihlangano yakho; bamisa izibonakaliso zabo zaba yizibonakaliso.
5 Indoda ethile yayidume ngokuphakamisa izimbazo ezihlahleni eziminyene.
6 Kepha manje bahlephula umfanekiso wakhe obaziweyo masinyane ngezimbazo nezando.
7 Baphonsa umlilo endlini yakho engcwele, bayingcolisa ngokuwisa phansi indawo yokuhlala yegama lakho.
8 Bathi enhliziyweni yabo: “Masibachithe kanyekanye; bashisa onke amasinagoge kaNkulunkulu ezweni.”
9 Izibonakaliso zethu asiziboni; akusekho mprofethi, akakho phakathi kwethu owaziyo ukuthi koze kube nini.
10 O Nkulunkulu, koze kube nini isitha sihlambalaza? isitha sihlambalaza igama lakho kuze kube phakade na?
11 Usihoshelani isandla sakho, yebo, isandla sakho sokunene? yikhiphe esifubeni sakho.
12 Ngoba uNkulunkulu uyiNkosi yami kusukela endulo owenza insindiso phakathi komhlaba.
13 Nguwena owahlukanisa ulwandle ngamandla akho; amakhanda ezimpungushe wena uwaphule emanzini.
14 Wachoboza amakhanda kaLeviyathani, wamnika ukuba abe ngukudla kwabakhileyo ehlane.
15 Nguwena owahlukanisa umthombo nomfula, womisa imifula enamandla.
16 Usuku ngolwakho, nobusuku bungobakho: Nguwe owalungisa ukukhanya nelanga.
17 Nguwe owamisa yonke imikhawulo yomhlaba, owenza ihlobo nobusika.
18 Khumbula ukuthi isitha sithukile, Jehova, nokuthi abantu abayiziwula balihlambalazile igama lakho.
19 Unganikeli umphefumulo wejuba lakho esixukwini sababi; ungakhohlwa umhlangano wabampofu bakho kuze kube phakade.
20 Lalelani isivumelwano, ngokuba izindawo ezimnyama zomhlaba zigcwele izindawo zokuhlala ezinonya.
21 Ocindezelweyo makangabuyi enamahloni; ompofu nompofu mabadumise igama lakho.
22 Vuka, Nkulunkulu, uyithethelele indaba yakho; cabanga ukuthi isiwula sikuthuka kanjani nsuku zonke.
23 Ungakhohlwa izwi lezitha zakho: ukuxokozela kwabakuvukelayo kuyanda njalo.

1 Bantwana bami, nginilobela lokhu ukuba ningoni. Uma umuntu ona, sinoMmeli kuYise, uJesu Kristu olungileyo;
2 yena uyinhlawulo yezono zethu, kungengezethu zodwa, kodwa nezono zezwe lonke.
3 Ngalokho siyazi ukuthi siyamazi yena, uma sigcina imiyalo yakhe.
4 Lowo othi: “Ngiyamazi,” engagcini imiyalo yakhe, ungumqambimanga, neqiniso alikho kuye.
5 Kepha ogcina izwi lakhe, uthando lukaNkulunkulu luphelelisiwe kuye impela; ngalokho siyazi ukuthi sikuye.
6 Lowo othi uhlala kuye, yena umelwe ukuhamba njengalokho ahamba yena.
7 Bazalwane, anginilobeli umyalo omusha, kodwa umyalo omdala enaninawo kwasekuqaleni. Umyalo omdala uyizwi enalizwa kwasekuqaleni.
8 Futhi nginilobela umyalo omusha, okuliqiniso kuye nakini, ngokuba ubumnyama buyadlula, nokukhanya kweqiniso sekuyakhanya.
9 Lowo othi usekukhanyeni, kodwa ezonda umzalwane wakhe, usebumnyameni kuze kube manje.
10 Lowo othanda umzalwane wakhe uhlala ekukhanyeni, njalo kakulasikhubekiso kuye.
11 Kepha ozonda umzalwane wakhe usebumnyameni, uhamba ebumnyameni, akazi lapho eya khona, ngokuba ubumnyama buwaphuphuthekisile amehlo akhe.
12 Ngiyalibhalela, bantwanyana, ngoba izono zenu zithethelelwe ngenxa yebizo lakhe.
13 Ngiyanilobela bobaba, ngokuba nimazile okhona kwasekuqaleni. Ngiyanilobela, zinsizwa, ngokuba nimnqobile omubi. Ngiyanilobela, bantwanyana, ngokuba nimazile uBaba.
14 Ngililobele, bobaba, ngoba limazile yena okhona kusukela ekuqaleni. Nginilobele, zinsizwa, ngokuba ninamandla, nezwi likaNkulunkulu lihlezi kini, nimnqobile omubi.
15 Ningathandi izwe nezinto ezisezweni. Uma umuntu ethanda izwe, uthando lukaBaba alukho kuye.
16 Ngokuba konke okusezweni, inkanuko yenyama, nenkanuko yamehlo, nokuzigabisa ngalokhukuphila, akuveli kuYise, kodwa kuvela ezweni.
17 Izwe liyadlula kanye nenkanuko yalo, kepha owenza intando kaNkulunkulu uhlala kuze kube phakade.
18 Bantwanyana, sekuyisikhathi sokugcina, njengalokho nezwa ukuthi umphikukristu uyeza, nakalokhu sekukhona abaphikukristu abaningi; ngalokho siyazi ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokugcina.
19 Baphuma kithi, kodwa babengesibo abakithi; ngoba uba babengabakithi, ngabe bahlala lathi;
20 Kodwa nina ninokugcotshwa okuvela koNgcwele, futhi niyazi zonke izinto.

24 Ngakho-ke lokho enakuzwa kusukela ekuqaleni makuhlale kini. Uma lokho enakuzwa kwasekuqaleni kuhlala kini, nani niyohlala eNdodaneni nakuBaba.

27 Kepha ukugcotshwa enakwemukela kuye kuhlala kini, anidingi ukuba ubani anifundise, nihlale kuye.
28 Manje, bantwanyana, hlalani kuye; ukuze kuthi, nxa esebonakala, sibe lesibindi, singabi lenhloni phambi kwakhe ekufikeni kwakhe.
29 Uma nazi ukuthi ulungile, yazini ukuthi wonke owenza ukulunga uzelwe nguye.
