Zvakazarurwa 17
1 Zvino kwakauya umwe wevatumwa vanomwe vakange vane ndiro nomwe, ndokutaura neni, achiti kwandiri: Uya pano, ndicharatidza kwauri mutongo wemhombwe huru igere pamusoro pemvura zhinji;
Enye yezingilosi eziyisikhombisa ezazilemiganu eyisikhombisa yeza kimi yathi, “Woza ngikutshengise ukujeziswa kwesiphingi esikhulu esihlezi phezu kwamanzi amanengi.
2 madzimambo enyika aakaita upombwe nayo, nevagari vepanyika vakadhakiswa newaini yeupombwe hwayo.
Amakhosi omhlaba afeba laso njalo abahlezi emhlabeni badakwa yiwayini yobufebe baso.”
3 Zvino wakandisengera kurenje mumweya, uye ndakaona mukadzi akatasva chikara chitsvuku, chizere nemazita ekunyomba, chine misoro minomwe nenyanga gumi.
Ingilosi yasingithatha ngiseMoyeni yangisa enkangala. Khonapho ngabona owesifazane ehlezi phezu kwesilo esibomvu gebhu sigcwele amabizo ahlambazayo njalo yayilamakhanda ayisikhombisa lempondo ezilitshumi.
4 Zvino mukadzi wakange akamonera zvine ruvara rwehute nezvitsvuku, uye akashonga goridhe nemabwe anokosha nemaparera, ane mukombe wegoridhe muruoko rwake uzere nezvinosemesa netsvina yeupombwe hwake.
Owesifazane lowo wayegqoke okuyibubende lokubomvu gebhu njalo wayekhazimula ngegolide langamatshe aligugu kanye langobuhlalu. Esandleni sakhe wayephethe inkezo igcwele izinto ezenyanyekayo kanye lamanyala obufebe bakhe.
5 Nepahuma yake pakange pakanyorwa zita rekuti: CHAKAVANZIKA, BHABHIRONI GURU, MAI VEMHOMBWE NEZVINOSEMESA ZVENYIKA.
Umbhalo owawulotshwe ebunzini lakhe wawusesabeka: iBhabhiloni eliKhulu uNina weziPhingi kanye lamaNyala wonke oMhlaba.
6 Zvino ndakaona mukadzi akararadza neropa revatsvene, uye neropa rezvapupu zvaJesu. Zvino ndakati ndamuona ndikashamisika nekushamisika kukuru.
Ngabona ukuthi owesifazane lowo wayedakwe ligazi labangcwele, igazi lalabo abalobufakazi bukaJesu. Ekumboneni kwami ngamangala kakhulu.
7 Zvino mutumwa akati kwandiri: Washamisika nei? Ini ndichakuudza chakavanzika chemukadzi, nechechikara chinomutakura, chine misoro minomwe nenyanga gumi.
Ingilosi yasisithi kimi, “Kungani umangala? Ngizakuchazela imfihlakalo yowesifazane lesilo asigadileyo esilamakhanda ayisikhombisa lempondo ezilitshumi.
8 Chikara chawakaona, chaivapo, uye chisipo; uye choda kukwira chichibva mugomba risina chigadziko, chichienda mukuparadzwa; uye vanogara panyika vasina kunyorwa mazita avo mubhuku reupenyu kubva pakuvambwa kwenyika vachashamisika vachiona chikara chaivapo uye chisipo, kunyange chiripo. (Abyssos g12)
Isilo osibonileyo sake saba khona, kodwa khathesi kasisekho njalo sizaphuma eMgodini ongelamkhawulo siye ekubhujisweni kwaso. Abahlezi emhlabeni abalamabizo abo angalotshwanga encwadini yokuphila kusukela ekudalweni komhlaba bazamangala lapho besibona lesosilo ngoba sake saba khona, kodwa khathesi kasisekho, kodwa sizabuya sivele. (Abyssos g12)
9 Zvino heino fungwa ine njere. Misoro minomwe ndiwo makomo manomwe mukadzi paagere pamusoro pawo,
Lokhu kufuna ingqondo elokuhlakanipha. Amakhanda ayisikhombisa ngamaqaqa ayisikhombisa owesifazane ahlezi phezu kwawo.
10 uye ndiwo madzimambo manomwe; vashanu vawa, uye umwe aripo, umwe haasati asvika; uye kana achisvika, anofanira kugara chinguvana.
Njalo angamakhosi ayisikhombisa. Amahlanu kudala awa, eyodwa ikhona, enye kayikaveli, kodwa nxa isisiza kumele ihlale isikhatshana.
11 Uye chikara chaivapo, uye chisipo, ndiyewo werusere, uye anobva pavanomwe, uye anoenda mukuparadzwa.
Isilo esake saba khona njalo khathesi esingasekho yinkosi yesificaminwembili. Ngenye yalawo ayisikhombisa njalo isisiya ekubhujisweni kwayo.
12 Nenyanga gumi dzawaona, ndiwo madzimambo gumi, asati agamuchira ushe, asi achagamuchira simba semadzimambo pamwe nechikara awa rimwe.
Impondo ezilitshumi ozibonileyo ngamakhosi alitshumi angakatholi mbuso, kodwa azathola amandla obukhosi okwehola elilodwa kanye lesilo.
13 Ava vane fungwa imwe, uye vanopa simba neutongi hwavo kuchikara.
Alenjongo yinye njalo azakupha isilo amandla awo kanye lelungelo.
14 Ava vacharwa neGwayana, uye Gwayana richavakunda, nokuti ndiIshe wemadzishe naMambo wemadzimambo; nevanaro ndevakadanwa nevakasarudzwa nevakatendeka.
Azakulwa impi leWundlu, kodwa iWundlu lizawanqoba ngoba liyiNkosi yamakhosi loMbusi wababusi, njalo lizabe lilababiziweyo balo abangabalandeli abakhethiweyo labathembekileyo.”
15 Zvino akati kwandiri: Mvura yawaona, pagere mhombwe, ndivo vanhu nezvaunga nemarudzi nendimi.
Ingilosi yabuya yathi kimi, “Amanzi owabonileyo lapho isiphingi esihlezi khona ngabantu bemihlobo yonke, amaxuku lezizwe kanye lezindimi.
16 Uye nyanga gumi dzawaona pamusoro pechikara, avo vachavenga mhombwe, uye vachaiparadza nekuifukura, uye vachadya nyama yayo, nekuipisa nemoto.
Isilo lempondo ezilitshumi ozibonileyo kuzasizonda isiphingi. Zizasichitha zisitshiye size; zizakudla inyama yomzimba waso zisitshise ngomlilo.
17 Nokuti Mwari wakaisa mumoyo yavo kuti vaite fungwa yake, vaite fungwa imwe, nekupa chikara ushe hwavo, kusvikira mashoko aMwari apedzeredzwa.
Ngoba uNkulunkulu ubeke ezinhliziyweni zazo ukuba afeze injongo yakhe ngokuvuma ukunika isilo amandla azo okubusa amazwi kaNkulunkulu aze agcwaliseke.
18 Zvino mukadzi wawaona ndiro guta guru, rine umambo pamusoro pemadzimambo enyika.
Owesifazane ombonileyo lidolobho elikhulu elibusa amakhosi omhlaba.”
