< Isambulo 19 >
1 Emva kwalezizinto ngasengisizwa ilizwi elikhulu elexuku elikhulu ezulwini, lisithi: Haleluya! Usindiso lobukhosi lodumo lamandla kungokweNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu;
2 ngoba izigwebo zakhe ziqotho zilungile; ngoba usilahlile isifebe esikhulu, esonakalise umhlaba ngobufebe baso, usephindisele igazi lenceku zakhe esandleni saso.
3 Basebesithi ngokwesibili: Haleluya! Lentuthu yaso ithunqa kuze kube nini lanini. (aiōn )
4 Labadala abangamatshumi amabili lane lezidalwa ezine eziphilayo zawela phansi zakhonza uNkulunkulu ohlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi zisithi: Ameni! Haleluya!
5 Ilizwi laseliphuma livela esihlalweni sobukhosi, lisithi: Mdumiseni uNkulunkulu wethu, lina lonke zinceku zakhe, labamesabayo, labancinyane, labakhulu.
6 Ngasengisizwa kungathi yilizwi lexuku elikhulu, njalo kungathi ngumdumo wamanzi amanengi, njalo kungathi ngumsindo wemidumo elamandla, kusithi: Haleluya! Ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu uSomandla uyabusa.
7 Asithokoze sithabe kakhulu, besesisipha udumo kuye; ngoba umtshado weWundlu usufikile, lomkalo usezilungisele.
8 Kwasekuphiwa kuye ukuthi embathe ilembu elicolekileyo kakhulu elihlanzekileyo lelikhazimulayo; ngoba ilembu elicolekileyo kakhulu liyikulunga kwabangcwele.
9 Yasisithi kimi: Bhala uthi: Babusisiwe labo ababizelwe ekudleni kwantambama komtshado weWundlu. Yasisithi kimi: La ngamazwi aqotho kaNkulunkulu.
10 Ngasengiwela phansi enyaweni zayo ukuyikhonza; yasisithi kimi: Qaphela ungakwenzi; ngiyinceku kanye lawe labazalwane bakho abalobufakazi bukaJesu; khonza uNkulunkulu; ngoba ubufakazi bukaJesu bungumoya wesiprofetho.
11 Ngasengibona izulu livuliwe, khangela-ke ibhiza elimhlophe, loligadileyo ubizwa ngokuthi oThembekileyo loQotho, njalo ngokulunga uyahlulela alwe.
12 Lamehlo akhe afanana lelangabi lomlilo, lekhanda lakhe kulemiqhele eminengi; njalo ulebizo elilotshiweyo, okungelamuntu olaziyo ngaphandle kwakhe,
13 wasesembatha isembatho esicwiliswe egazini; lebizo lakhe libizwa ngokuthi, nguLizwi likaNkulunkulu.
14 Lamabutho ayesezulwini amlandela egade amabhiza amhlophe, embethe ilembu elicolekileyo kakhulu elimhlophe lelihlanzekileyo.
15 Emlonyeni wakhe kwasekuphuma inkemba ebukhali, ukuze atshaye izizwe ngayo; njalo yena uzazibusa ngentonga yensimbi; yena-ke uzanyathela isikhamelo sevini sewayini lentukuthelo lolaka lukaNkulunkulu uSomandla.
16 Njalo esembathweni lethangazini lakhe ulebizo elibhalwe ukuthi: INKOSI YAMAKHOSI LOMBUSI WABABUSI.
17 Ngasengibona ingilosi eyodwa imi elangeni; yasimemeza ngelizwi elikhulu, isithi enyonini zonke eziphaphayo phakathi laphakathi kwezulu: Wozani libuthaniswe ekudleni kwantambama kukaNkulunkulu omkhulu,
18 ukuze lidle inyama yamakhosi, lenyama yenduna ezinkulu, lenyama yabalamandla, lenyama yamabhiza leyabagadi bawo, lenyama yabo bonke, abakhululekileyo kanye labayizigqili, labancinyane labakhulu.
19 Ngasengibona isilo, lamakhosi omhlaba lamabutho awo ebuthanele ukulwa impi laye ogade ibhiza, kanye lebutho lakhe.
20 Isilo sasesibanjwa, njalo kanye laso umprofethi wamanga owenza izibonakaliso phambi kwaso, aduhisa ngazo labo ababelophawu lwesilo, lalabo abakhonza umfanekiso waso; labo bobabili baphoselwa bephila echibini lomlilo elivutha isibabule; (Limnē Pyr )
21 labaseleyo babulawa ngenkemba yogade ibhiza, ephuma emlonyeni wakhe; lenyoni zonke zasutha inyama yabo.
