1Lengilosi yase ingikhombisa umfula wemanti ekuphila, wawukhanya njengengilazi lekhanya kubonakale ngale. Emanti awo abegeleta aphuma esihlalweni sebukhosi saNkulunkulu neseliWundlu. 2Ageleta ehla nemgwaco welikhaya. Ngale nangale kwalomfula bekunesihlahla sekuphila. Besitsela titselo emahlandla lali-12 ngemnyaka, lokusho kutsi kanye ngenyanga. Emacembe aso abephilisa tive. 3Konkhe lokucalekisiwe kuyawubate kulelo khaya.

Kubuya kwaJesu
6Ingilosi yatsi kimi: “Lamavi etsembekile, futsi acinisile. INkhosi Nkulunkulu legcwalisa baphrofethi ngaMoya wayo itfumele ingilosi yayo kutsi ikhombise tinceku tayo loko lokutakwenteka masinyane.”
7Jesu watsi: “Lalela la, ngiyeta masinyane! Babusisiwe labo labeva lamavi alesiphrofetho bawente.”
8Ngimi, Johane, loweva waphindze wakubona konkhe loku. Ngatsi kube ngikuve ngikubone konkhe loku, ngawa phansi ngasetinyaweni talengilosi lebeyingikhombisa letintfo, ngentela kuteyikhotsama. 9Yatsi kimi: “Ungakwenti loko. Nami ngisisebenti nje njengawe, nebazalwane bakho lababaphrofethi, kanye nabo bonkhe labawentako lamavi alencwadzi. Khotsama Nkulunkulu.” 10Yachubeka yatsi kimi: “Ungawafihli lamavi alesiphrofetho salencwadzi, ngobe sikhatsi sesisedvute. 11Lomubi akachubeke nebubi bakhe, lowonako achubeke one, lolungile achubeke nekulunga kwakhe, longcwele achubeke nebungcwele.”
12Jesu utsi: “Lalela la, ngiyeta masinyane! Ngita nemvuzo wami, ngitewunika ngulowo nalowo njengekwemisebenti yakhe. 13Ngingu-Alfa na-Omega, wekucala newekugcina, sicalo nesiphetfo.
14“Babusisiwe labo labatigezako tingubo tabo, kuze kutsi babe nelilungelo lekudla esihlahleni sekuphila, babe nelilungelo lekungena ngemasango ekhaya. 15Kepha ngephandle kunetinja, nebatsakatsi, netingwadla, netiphingi, nebabulali, nalabakhonta tithico, nabo bonkhe labatsandza kucala emanga ngekukhuluma nangetento.
16“Mine, Jesu, nginitfumele ingilosi yami kutsi itewuvakalisa letindzaba emabandleni. Ngisitukulwane nentalo yaDavide. Ngiyinkhanyeti yekusa lecwebetelako.”
17Moya namakoti batsi: “Kota!”
Wonkhe umuntfu lovako akatsi: “Kota!”
Lowo lowomile akete; nalowo lofuna emanti ekuphila, akawanatse mahhala.
Siphetfo
18Mine, Johane, ngecwayisa wonkhe umuntfu lowevako emavi alesiphrofetho lesikulencwadzi ngitsi: Nakukhona lowengeta lutfo kuwo, Nkulunkulu uyakwengeta nakuye letinhlupho letichazwe kulencwadzi. 19Nakukhona lowaphungulako lamavi alesiphrofetho lesikulencwadzi, naNkulunkulu uyawuphungula sabelo sakhe esihlahleni sekuphila nasekhaya lelingcwele, njengobe sekuchaziwe kulencwadzi.
20Lowo lowetfula lobufakazi utsi:
“Yebo, ngiyeta masinyane!”
“Amen! Kota, Nkhosi Jesu!”
21Umusa weNkhosi awube nabo bonkhe labangcwele.
