10 NgoSuku lweNkosi ngangenwa nguMoya kwathi ngemva kwami ngezwa ilizwi elikhulu kungathi licilongo,
Ndakange ndiri muMweya nezuva raIshe, zvino ndakanzwa shure kwangu inzwi guru, serehwamanda,
11 elathi: “Loba emqulwini lokhu okubonayo uwuthumele emabandleni ayisikhombisa: kwelase-Efesu, lelaseSimina, lelasePhegamami, lelaseThiyathira, lelaseSadisi, lelaseFiladelifiya kanye lelaseLodikheya.”

12 Ngatshibilika ukuze ngimbone lowo owayekhuluma lami. Sengiphendukile ngabona izinti zezibane zegolide eziyisikhombisa,
Zvino ndikatendeuka kuona inzwi rakataura neni. Ndatendeukawo ndakaona zvigadziko zvemwenje zvegoridhe zvinomwe,
13 njalo phakathi kwezinti zezibane kwakulomuntu owayenjengendodana yomuntu, egqoke isembatho esasifika phansi ezinyaweni zakhe, ibhanti legolide libophe isifuba sakhe.
nepakati pezvigadziko zvemwenje zvinomwe, mumwe wakaita seMwanakomana wemunhu, akapfeka nguvo yakasvikira kutsoka, uye akazvisunga kupoteredza chifuva nebhanhire regoridhe.
14 Ikhanda lakhe lezinwele zakhe kwakumhlophe njengotshinda, kumhlophe nke njengongqwaqwane, lamehlo akhe ayenjengomlilo ovuthayo.
Nemusoro wake nemavhudzi zvakachena semakushe emakwai machena, semagada echando; uye meso ake semurazvo wemoto;
15 Inyawo zakhe zazinjengethusi elikhazimulayo emvuthweni, ilizwi lakhe linjengokuhuba kwamanzi agelezayo.
uye tsoka dzake dzakafanana nendarira yakakwenenzverwa, sedzinenge dzakapiswa muvira remoto; neinzwi rake seinzwi remvura zhinji.
16 Esandleni sakhe sokunene wayephethe izinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa, emlonyeni wakhe kwaphuma insingo. Ubuso bakhe babunjengelanga likhanyisa ngenkazimulo yalo yonke.
Uye wakange ane muruoko rwake rwerudyi nyeredzi nomwe; zvino mumuromo make makabuda munondo unopinza unocheka mativi maviri; uye chiso chake chaiva sezuva rinopenya musimba raro.
17 Kwathi ngimbona ngawela ezinyaweni zakhe njengofileyo. Wabeka isandla sakhe sokunene phezu kwami, wathi: “Ungesabi. Mina ngiyisiQalo lesiPhetho.
Zvino pandakamuona, ndakawira patsoka dzake sewakafa; ndokuisa ruoko rwake rwerudyi pamusoro pangu, achiti kwandiri: Usatya; ndini wekutanga newekupedzisira;
19 Ngakho-ke, loba lokhu okubonileyo, okukhona khathesi kanye lokuzakwenzakala muva.
Nyora zvawaona, nezvinhu zviripo, nezvinhu zvichazovapo shure kweizvi.
20 Imfihlakalo yezinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa ozibone esandleni sami sokunene kanye lezinti zezibane zegolide eziyisikhombisa yile: Izinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa yizingilosi zamabandla ayisikhombisa, izinti zezibane ngamabandla ayisikhombisa.”
Chakavanzika chenyeredzi nomwe dzawaona paruoko rwangu rwerudyi, nezvigadziko zvemwenje zvinomwe zvegoridhe. Nyeredzi nomwe ndivo vatumwa vekereke nomwe; nezvigadziko zvemwenje zvinomwe zvawaona ndidzo kereke nomwe.
