1Emvakwaloko ngeva shangatsi livi lelikhulu lesicumbi lesikhulu sihlabela ezulwini sitsi:
“Haleluya! Insindziso, nenkhatimulo,
nemandla kwaNkulunkulu wetfu;
2ngobe tehlulelo takhe tiliciniso timsulwa.
Sewuyehlulele lengwadla lenkhulu
leyabhubhisa umhlaba wonkhe
ngebugwadla bayo;
wakhiphela kuyo
sibhongo sengati yetinceku takhe.”
3Saphindze sahlabela satsi:
“Haleluya!
Intfutfu yekusha kwayo iyawubhunya
yenyuke phakadze naphakadze.”
4Emalunga langema-24 netidalwa letine tawa phansi takhonta Nkulunkulu lohleti esihlalweni sebukhosi tatsi: “Amen! Haleluya!”
Lidzili lemshado weliWundlu
5Kwevakala livi liphuma esihlalweni sebukhosi litsi:
“Dvumisani Nkulunkulu wetfu,
nonkhe nine tinceku takhe,
nine labancane nani labakhulu lenimesabako.”
6Ngase ngiva lokwakungatsi livi lesicumbi lesikhulu sebantfu, linjengemsindvo wemanti lamanyenti nanjengekudvuma lokukhulu litsi:
“Haleluya! INkhosi yetfu,
Nkulunkulu Somandla, iyabusa.
7Asitfokote, siyiphakamise,
siyinike ludvumo,
ngobe umshado weliWundlu sewufikile,
namakoti sewutilungiselele.
8Uphiwe kutsi embatsiswe
ingubo yelineni lecolisakele,
nalekhanyako, nalemsulwa.”
Lelineni lecolisakele itento nemisebenti lelungile yalabangcwele.
9Lengilosi yatsi kimi: “Bhala utsi: Babusisiwe labo labamenyelwe edzilini lemshado weliWundlu.” Yachubeka yatsi kimi: “Lawa ngemavi aNkulunkulu laliciniso.”
10Ngase ngiwela ngasetinyaweni tayo ngayikhotsama, kodvwa yatsi kimi: “Ungakwenti loko! Nami ngisisebenti kanye nawe nebazalwane bakho labanebufakazi baJesu. Khotsama Nkulunkulu.”
Ngobe bufakazi baJesu bunguMoya wesiphrofetho.
Umgibeli welihhashi lelimhlophe
11Ngase ngibona lizulu livulekile, bekunelihhashi lelimhlophe. Lona bekaligibele abebitwa ngekutsi nguLotsembekile naLiciniso; umsulwa ekwehluleleni kwakhe nasekulweni kwakhe. 12Emehlo akhe abenjengemalangabi emlilo, enhloko yakhe bekunemichele leminyenti; abenelibito lebelibhaliwe lelingatiwa ngumuntfu ngaphandle kwakhe. 13Abembetse ingubo leyayenyiwe engatini. Libito lakhe nguLivi laNkulunkulu. 14Emabutfo asezulwini amlandzela agibele emahhashi lamhlophe, embetse tingubo letimhlophe letihlantekile telineni. 15Emlonyeni wakhe kuphuma inkemba lekhaliphako latawushaya tive ngayo, uyawutibusa ngesandla lesimatima. Uyawunyatsela litje lesikhamo seliwayini. Leliwayini liyintfukutselo yelulaka lwaNkulunkulu Somandla. 16Engutjeni yakhe nasetsangeni lakhe kubhalwe libito lelitsi: “INkhosi yemakhosi, uMbusi webabusi.”
17Ngase ngibona ingilosi ime elangeni, yamemeta ngelivi lelikhulu ibita tonkhe tinyoni letindiza emoyeni yatsi: “Butsanani nonkhe nite edzilini lelikhulu laNkulunkulu. 18Wotani nitewudla inyama letidvumbu temakhosi, netetindvuna, netemadvodza lanemandla, netemahhashi kanye netebagibeli bawo, netabo bonkhe bantfu, labakhululekile netigcili, labancane nalabakhulu.”
19Ngabona silo, nemakhosi emhlaba, nemabutfo awo ahlanganela kuyawulwa nalowo labegibele lihhashi lelimhlophe, kanye nelibutfo lakhe. 20Kodvwa lesilo satfunjwa, kanye nemphrofethi wemanga labenta tibonakaliso tekudukisa labo labaneluphawu lwesilo nalabasikhonta ngekukhotsamela lomfanekiso waso. Bobabili bajikijelwa baphila echibini lemlilo lelivutsa sibabule. 21Laba labanye babulawa ngenkemba lephuma emlonyeni walowo logibele lihhashi. Tonkhe tinyoni tesutsa inyama yetidvumbu tabo.
