Ubuqaqawuli buyafuduka endlwini kaThixo
1Ndajonga ndaza ndabona into engathi sisihlalo sekumkani esenziwe ngelitye lesafire, sithe zinzi esibhakabhakeni ngasentla kweentloko *zezithunywa ezimaphiko. 2Waza *uNdikhoyo wathi kwindoda enxibe izambatho zelinen: “Ngena phakathi kwamavili lawa aphantsi kwezithunywa ezimaphiko, uzalise izandla zakho ngamalahle avuthayo, uwasasaze phezu kwesi sixeko.” Wangena ndikhangele njalo.
3Izithunywa ezimaphiko zazimi kwicala lasezantsi endlwini kaThixo ngeli xesha indoda ingenayo. Inkundla ephakathi yayigqunywe lilifu. 4Baza ubuqaqawuli bukaNdikhoyo bafunquka phezu kwesithunywa esimaphiko, baya kuthi zinzi emnyangweni wendlu kaThixo. Yazala mome indlu kaThixo lilifu, yona inkundla yazala bubukhazikhazi bobuqaqawuli bukaNdikhoyo. 5Isandi samaphiko ezithunywa ezimaphiko savakala nakwinkundla engaphandle, ngathi lizwi likaThixo uSomandla xa ethetha.
6UNdikhoyo wayalela umfo onezambatho zelinen wathi: “Thatha umlilo apho phakathi kwamavili emi ngakwizithunywa ezimaphiko.” Waza umfo lowo ke wema ngasevilini. 7Esinye sezithunywa ezimaphiko sasolulela emlilweni isandla saso. Sakha umlilo lowo, sawugalela ezandleni zomfo onezinxibo zelinen, waza ke waphuma nawo. ( 8Kwakukho izinto ezingathi zizandla zomntu phantsi kwamaphiko ezithunywa ezo.)
9Ndajonga ndabona amavili amane, lilinye ngakwisithunywa esimaphiko ngasinye; amavili ayebengezela okwekrizolite. 10Ngembonakalo ayefana omane. Ivili ngalinye lalingathi linqumleze elinye ivili. 11Xa zihamba zisiya nakuliphi na icala kumacala omane ezijonge kuwo izithunywa ezimaphiko amavili ayengajikelezi, izithunywa ezimaphiko zisiya nakweliphi na icala ejonge kulo intloko zingajika-jiki. 12Wonke umzimba wazo, umhlana, izandla, namaphiko, wawungamehlo nje, ngokunjalo namavili lawo. 13Ndeva amavili la kusithiwa ngabajikelezi. 14Isithunywa ngasinye sasinobuso obune: obokuqala yayibobesithunywa esimaphiko, obesibini ibobomntu, obesithathu ibobengonyama, obesine ibobokhozi.
15Zenyuka ke izithunywa ezimaphiko. Yayizeziya zidalwa ziphilayo ndandizibone ngasemlanjeni iKebhare. 16Bezisithi zakusuka izithunywa, namavili ahambe; zithi zakuwatwabulula amaphiko azo izithunywa, zilungiselela ukuphakama emhlabeni, amavili ebengasuki ecaleni lazo. 17Bezithi zakuma izithunywa ezimaphiko, nawo amavili eme; zithi zakuphakama izithunywa ezimaphiko, nawo amavili aphakame, kuba uMoya olawula izidalwa eziphilayo wawuwalawula namavili.
18Ubuqaqawuli bukaNdikhoyo bashenxa emgubasini wendlu kaThixo, bathi gubungu phezu kwezithunywa ezimaphiko. 19Ndisakhangele njalo izithunywa ezo zawatwabulula amaphiko, zenyuka emhlabeni, kwaza ekusukeni kwazo namavili esuka. Zaza zema esangweni elisempuma yendlu kaNdikhoyo, ubuqaqawuli bukaThixo kaSirayeli buhleli phezu kwazo.
20Ezi zidalwa ziphilayo zezi ndazibona zixhase uThixo kaSirayeli ngasemlanjeni iKebhare. Ndaza ke ndaqonda ukuba zizithunywa ezimaphiko. 21Sisinye sasibuso bune, namaphiko emane, nezinto ezingathi zizandla zomntu apha phantsi kwamaphiko. 22Ubuso bazo babufana kanye nobuya ndandibubone ngasemlanjeni iKebhare. Ngasinye ngasinye sasisiya kwelo cala sikhangele ngakulo.
