< Zvakazarurwa 11 >
1 Zvino kwakapiwa kwandiri rutsanga rwakaita semudonzvo, mutumwa ndokumira achiti: Simuka, zvino yera tembere yaMwari, nearitari, nevanonamata mairi.
Ngaphiwa umhlanga njengomqwayi wokulinganisa, ngasengitshelwa ukuthi, “Hamba uyelinganisa ithempeli likaNkulunkulu le-alithari, ubale labakhonza khona.
2 Asi chivanze chiri kunze kwetembere urasire panze, uye usachiyera; nokuti chakapiwa kuvechirudzi; uye vachatsikira guta dzvene pasi mwedzi makumi mana nemiviri.
Kodwa utshiye iguma langaphandle ungalilinganisi ngoba liphiwe abeZizweni. Bazanyathela idolobho elingcwele izinyanga ezingamatshumi amane lambili.
3 Zvino ndichapa simba kuzvapupu zvangu zviviri, zvino zvichaporofita mazuva churu nemazana maviri nemakumi matanhatu, zvakapfeka masaga.
Ofakazi bami ababili ngizabanika amandla njalo bazaphrofitha insuku eziyinkulungwane lamakhulu amabili lamatshumi ayisithupha, begqoke izigqoko zamasaka.”
4 Ava miti miviri yemiorivhi, nezvigadziko zvemwenje zviviri zvimire pamberi paMwari wenyika.
Laba “bayizihlahla ezimbili zama-oliva” lezinti ezimbili zezibane “ezimi phambi kweNkosi yomhlaba.”
5 Zvino kana kune anoshuva kuvakuvadza, moto unobuda mumuromo wavo uchiparadza vavengi vavo; uye kana umwe achishuva kuvakuvadza, anofanira kuurawa saizvozvo.
Umuntu angazama ukuzilimaza, kuphuma umlilo emilonyeni yazo uqothule izitha zazo. Le yiyo indlela umuntu ofuna ukuzilimaza afa ngayo.
6 Ava vane simba rekupfiga denga, kuti kusanaya mvura pamazuva ekuporofita kwavo, uye vane simba pamusoro pemvura, kuti vaishandure ive ropa, nekurova nyika nematambudziko ese nguva dzese dzavanoda.
Abantu laba balamandla okuvala umkhathi ukuba izulu lingani lapho bephrofitha njalo balamandla okuphendula amanzi abe ligazi lawokutshaya umhlaba ngezinhlobo zonke zezifo kanengi njengokuthanda kwabo.
7 Uye kana vapedza uchapupu hwavo, chikara chinokwira kubva mugomba risina chigadziko chichaita hondo navo, ndokuvakunda nekuvauraya. (Abyssos )
Kuzakuthi lapho sebeqedile ukufakaza kwabo isilo esiphuma eMgodini ongelamkhawulo sizabahlasela sibehlule sibabulale. (Abyssos )
8 Uye zvitunha zvavo zvichava panzira dzemuguta guru, rinonzi pamweya Sodhoma neEgipita, pakarovererwawo Ishe wedu.
Izidumbu zabo zizalala emgwaqweni wedolobho elikhulu okuthi ngokufaniswa libizwe ngokuthi yiSodoma leGibhithe lapho leNkosi yabo eyabethelwa khona esiphambanweni.
9 Zvino vanobva kuvanhu nevemarudzi nevendimi nevendudzi vachaona zvitunha zvavo mazuva matatu nehafu, uye havangatenderi zvitunha zvavo kuti zviiswe mumakuva.
Okwensuku ezintathu lengxenye yosuku abantu abavela emihlotsheni yonke yabantu lasezizwaneni zonke lasezindimini zonke kanye lasezizweni zonke bazakhangela izidumbu zabo bale ukuba zingcwatshwe.
10 Neavo vanogara panyika vachafara pamusoro pavo nekupembera, uye vachatumirana zvipo, nokuti vaporofita ava vaviri vakatambudza vanogara panyika.
Abantu basemhlabeni bazazikhangela ngokuthokoza bazijabulise ngokuthumela izipho ngoba abaphrofethi ababili laba babebahluphile abahlala emhlabeni.
11 Zvino shure kwemazuva matatu nehafu, mweya weupenyu kubva kuna Mwari wakapinda mavari, vakamira netsoka dzavo, uye kutya kukuru kukawira vakavaona.
Kodwa emva kwalezonsuku ezintathu lengxenye yosuku umoya wokuphila owavela kuNkulunkulu wabangena, basebesima ngezinyawo zabo, kwathi labo abababonayo besaba kakhulu.
12 Zvino vakanzwa inzwi guru richibva kudenga, richiti kwavari: Kwirai pano. Zvino vakakwira kudenga vari mugore, vavengi vavo ndokuvaona.
Bezwa ilizwi elikhulu livela ezulwini lisithi kubo, “Wozani phezulu lapha.” Baya phezulu ezulwini bephakathi kweyezi izitha zabo zilokhu zikhangele.
13 Zvino nenguva iyoyo kwakava nekudengenyeka kwenyika kukuru, chegumi cheguta ndokuwa, nemazita evanhu zvuru zvinomwe vakaurawa mukudengenyeka kwenyika; vakasara ndokuvhunduswa, vakapa rumbidzo kuna Mwari wekudenga.
Ngalesosikhathi kwaba lokuzamazama okukhulu komhlaba kwathi ingxenye yetshumi yedolobho yabhidlika. Abantu abazinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa bafa ekuzamazameni komhlaba, abaphephayo, besaba kakhulu bamdumisa uNkulunkulu wasezulwini.
14 Nhamo yechipiri yapfuura; zvino tarira, nhamo yechitatu inokurumidza kuuya.
Uhlupho lwesibili selwedlule; uhlupho lwesithathu luyeza masinyane.
15 Zvino mutumwa wechinomwe wakaridza; manzwi makuru ndokuva kudenga, achiti: Ushe hwenyika hwava hwaIshe wedu, nehwaKristu wake; uye achatonga kusvika rinhi narinhi. (aiōn )
Ingilosi yesikhombisa yakhalisa icilongo layo kwasekusiba lamazwi amakhulu ezulwini, ayesithi: “Umbuso wasemhlabeni usube ngumbuso weNkosi yethu loKhristu wayo, njalo izabusa kuze kube nininini.” (aiōn )
16 Uye vakuru makumi maviri nevana vagere pamberi paMwari pazvigaro zvavo zveushe vakawa nezviso zvavo vakanamata Mwari,
Abadala abangamatshumi amabili lane ababehlezi ezihlalweni zobukhosi phambi kukaNkulunkulu bathi mbo phansi ngobuso babo bakhonza uNkulunkulu,
17 vachiti: Tinokuvongai, Ishe Mwari Wemasimbaose, aripo, wakange aripo, neachauya, nokuti makatora simba renyu guru, uye makatonga.
besithi: “Siyakubonga Nkosi Nkulunkulu Somandla, onguye okhona lowayekhona, ngoba usuwathethe amandla akho amakhulu njalo usuqalisile ukubusa.
18 Zvino marudzi akatsamwa, uye kutsamwa kwenyu kwasvika, nenguva yevakafa kuti vatongwe, uye kuti mupe mubairo kuvaranda venyu vaporofita, nekuvatsvene, nevanotya zita renyu, vadiki nevakuru, uye yekuparadza vanoparadza nyika.
Izizwe zazithukuthele; lolaka lwakho selufikile. Isikhathi sokwahlulela abafileyo sesifikile kanye lesokuvuza izinceku zakho abaphrofethi labangcwele bakho kanye lalabo abalihloniphayo ibizo lakho, abancinyane labakhulu kanye lesokuchitha labo abachitha umhlaba.”
19 Zvino kwakazarurwa tembere yaMwari kudenga; kukaonekwa areka yesungano yake mutembere yake; ndokuvapo mheni nemanzwi nekutinhira nekudengenyeka kwenyika nechimvuramabwe chikuru.
Emva kwalokho ithempeli likaNkulunkulu lavulwa ezulwini phakathi kwethempeli lakhe kwabonakala umtshokotsho wesivumelwano sakhe. Kwasekusiba lokuphazima kwemibane lokundindizela lokukhwaza kwezulu lokuzamazama komhlaba kanye lesiqhotho esikhulu.
