Isambulo 13
1 Ngasengisima etshebetshebeni lolwandle; ngasengibona isilo sikhuphuka olwandle, silamakhanda ayisikhombisa lempondo ezilitshumi, laphezu kwempondo zaso imiqhele elitshumi, laphezu kwamakhanda aso kulebizo lenhlamba.
Mpawo Simwaaba wakayimikila museele lyakumbali alwizi Lino ndakabona chinyama chifumpuka kuzwa mulwizi. Chakali ameja alikkumi amitwe ili musanu ayibili. Atala ameja kwakali misini ili kkumi, aatala amutwe uumwi kwakali izina lyalween.
2 Lesilo engasibonayo sasinjengengwe, lenyawo zaso zazinjengezebhere, lomlomo waso unjengomlomo wesilwane. Njalo umgobho wasinika amandla awo, lesihlalo sawo sobukhosi, legunya elikhulu.
Chinyama eechi nchindakabona chakali mbuuli nemba. Zituta zyacho zyakali mbuuli zituta zya nengo, amulomo wacho wakali mbuuli mulomo wamulavu. Simwaaba wakachipa nguzu zyakwe, achuuno abwami bupati bwakweendelezya.
3 Ngasengibona elinye lamakhanda aso kungathi lilimele okokufa; lenxeba laso lokufa selapholiswa; umhlaba wonke wasumangala ngemva kwesilo;
Umwi mutwe wachinyama wakali aachilonda chipati, pesi chilonda eecho chipati chakali chapona. Lino nyika yoonse yakali yagamba nibakali tobela chinyama. Bakamukomba umwi simwaaba nkaambo wakapa chinyama bwaami.
4 basebewukhonza umgobho owasinika isilo amandla, basebesikhonza isilo, besithi: Ngubani ofanana lesilo? Ngubani ongalwa laso?
Bakachikomba chinyama, achilacho, bakati,” ngwani uuli mbuuli chinyama?” nguni uunga ulachilwana.
5 Kwasekunikelwa kuso umlomo wokukhuluma izinto ezinkulu lezinhlamba, kwasekunikelwa kuso amandla okusebenza inyanga ezingamatshumi amane lambili.
Lino chinyama chakapegwa mulomo oyo wakali kwambuula majwi amasampu. Chakazumizigwa kweendelezya bwaami kwamyezi ilimakkumi aane amyezi iibili.
6 Sasesivula umlomo waso ukuhlambaza okumelane loNkulunkulu, lokuhlambaza ibizo lakhe, lethabhanekele lakhe, lalabo abahlezi ezulwini.
Mpawo chinyama chakajula mulomo wacho kuti chaambuule masampu kuli Leza, kusampawula zina lyakwe anganda yakwe abaabo bakkala kujulu.
7 Kwasekunikelwa kuso ukuthi silawule impi labangcwele, lokubanqoba; kwasekunikelwa kuso amandla phezu kwawo wonke umhlobo lolimi lesizwe.
Lino chinyama chakazumizigwa kutalika nkondo abantu ba Leza basalala akubazunda. Alimwi, chakapegwa bwaami bwakweendelezya misyobo yoonse, bantu milaka achisi.
8 Labo bonke abakhileyo emhlabeni bazasikhonza, labo amabizo abo angabhalwanga egwalweni lwempilo lweWundlu elahlatshwayo selokhu kwasekelwa umhlaba.
Boonse bakkala anyika bayoochikomba, woonse uulazina lyakatalembedwe mubbuku lyabuumi, lya Mwanaambelele wakajayigwa kuzwa kumatalikilo aanyika.
9 Uba umuntu elendlebe, kezwe.
Naa kuli uulakutwi aswiilile naa kuli uumwi utolwa mubuzike, mubuzike uyotolwa.
10 Uba umuntu ethumba, uya ekuthunjweni; uba umuntu ebulala ngenkemba, yena kumele abulawe ngenkemba. Lapha kulokubekezela lokholo lwabangcwele.
Naakuli uujayigwa aapanga, apanga uyojayigwa. Ndoolu lukakatilo lwakwiitwa alusyomo lwabantu ba Leza basalala.
11 Ngasengibona esinye isilo sisenyuka emhlabeni, sasilempondo ezimbili njengewundlu, sasesikhuluma njengomgobho.
Lino ndakbona chinyama chimbi chizwa munyika. Chakalaameja aabili mbuuli mwanaambelele, akwaamba mbuuli simwaaba.
12 Njalo sasebenzisa wonke amandla esilo sokuqala phambi kwaso, futhi senza ukuthi umhlaba labakhileyo kuwo bakhonze isilo sokuqala, esinxeba laso lokufa lapholiswa.
Mpawo ndakabona uumbi munyama kazwa munyika. Wakali aameja obile mbuli mbelele, alimwi chakalikwaambula mbuli simwaaba. Wakatondeezya woonse manguzu a munyama mutaanzi kunembo lyakwe, alimwi wakachita nyika alimwi abaabo bapona alinjiyo kuti bakombe munyama mutaanzi - ooyo wakali aachilonda chakaponisigwa.
13 Sasesisenza izibonakaliso ezinkulu, saze senza ukuthi lomlilo wehle uvela ezulwini uze emhlabeni, phambi kwabantu.
Chakachita maleele aagambya. Chakachita mulilo kuti useluke kuzwa kujulu kunembo lyabantu.
14 Sasesiduhisa abakhileyo emhlabeni ngalezozibonakaliso ezanikelwa kuso ukuzenza phambi kwesilo, sisithi kwabakhileyo emhlabeni, kabasenzele umfanekiso isilo ebesilenxeba lenkemba, sasesiphila.
Azizitondeezyo chakapegwa nguzu kachiimikilila chinyama, wakeena aabo bakkala munyika. wabaambila kuti babikkile chinyama chikozyanio - wakaliyasidwe apanga, pesi wakapona.
15 Sanikwa futhi ukupha umfanekiso wesilo umoya, ukuze umfanekiso wesilo lawo ukhulume, besesisenza ukuthi bonke abangakhonziyo umfanekiso wesilo babulawe.
Wakazumizigwa kupa muuya wakuyoya kuchikozyanisyo chachinyama kuti chikozyanisyo echo kuti chaambuule akuchita boonse aabo bakakakukomba chinyama kuti bajayigwe.
16 Sasesisenza bonke, abancinyane labakhulu, labanothileyo labayanga, labakhululekileyo lezigqili, ukuthi baphiwe uphawu esandleni sabo sokunene, loba emabunzini abo,
Alimwi wakaangila bantu boonse, batabalwi, abasinguzu, bavubi abachete, baangunwidwe abazike, kuti babikwe impa aakuboko naa ankumu.
17 ukuze kungabi khona olakho ukuthenga loba ukuthengisa, ngaphandle kwalowo olophawu, loba ibizo lesilo loba inombolo yebizo laso.
Chakaba chiyumu kuli boonse kuula naa kuuzya ado uula mpa yachinyama, ooyo ngumweelwe wimikilila zina lyacho.
18 Nansi inhlakanipho. Olokuqedisisa kabale inombolo yesilo; ngoba iyinombolo yomuntu, lenombolo yaso ingamakhulu ayisithupha lamatshumi ayisithupha lesithupha.
Oku mbombubo busongo. Naa kuli uujisi maan, abale mweelwe wachinyama, ooyu ngu, mweelwe wachinyama. Nkaambo ngumwelwe wamuntu. Mwelwe wakwe ngwa myaanda iili musanu awumwi iila makkumi musanu alimwi iila musanu awumwi.
