ZAKARIYA 3
Xivono xa muprista lonkulu.
1Kutani a ndzi kombisa Yoxuwa, muprista lonkulu, a yimile emahlweni ka ntsumi ya Yehovha; yena Satana a yimile evokweni ra yena ra xinene ku n'wi alela. 2Yehovha a ku eka Satana: “Yehovha a a ku tshinye, Satana! E, Yehovha la nga tihlawulela Yerusalema, a a ku tshinye! Loyi xana a hi xisa lexi vutliweke endzilweni?” 3Yoxuwa a a ambele tinguvu ta thyaka, a yimile emahlweni ka ntsumi. 4Ntsumi yi ahlamisa nomu, yi byela lava yimeke ekusuhi na yona, yi ku: “N'wi hluvuriseni tinguvu ta thyaka.” Kutani yi ku eka yena: “Vona, ndzi cukumete ku biha ka wena kule na wena, ndzi ku ambexa tinguvu leto saseka.” 5Ndzi ku: “A va n'wi vehele xihuku lexinene enhlokweni!” Kunene va n'wi vehela xihuku lexinene enhlokweni va n'wi ambexa ni swiambalo; kambe ntsumi ya Yehovha a yi yimile kwalaho.
6Ntsumi ya Yehovha yi tiyisisa eka Yoxuwa, yi ku: 7“Yehovha wa tinyimpi u ri: Loko u famba etindleleni ta mina, u hlayisa leswi ndzi ku tshembiseke swona, na wena u ta va ni ku lawula endlwini ya mina, u langutela timbala ta mina, ndzi va ndzi ku nyika mfanelo yo famba exikarhi ka lava yimeke ekusuhi na mina. 8Twana-ke, Yoxuwa, muprista lonkulu, wena ni vamakwenu lava tshameke ka wena! Kunene mi vavanuna lava nga ta va swikombiso, hikuva ndzi ta tisa nandza wanga, Xihluke. 9Hikuva vona, loko ri ri ribye leri ndzi nga ri veka emahlweni ka Yoxuwa, ehenhla ka ribye leri ntsena, ku ni mahlo ya ntlhanu na mambirhi; ndza ri vatla, ku vula Yehovha wa tinyimpi, kutani ndzi ta hlangula ku homboloka ka misava leyi hi siku rin'we. 10Esikwini rero, ku vula Yehovha wa tinyimpi, mi ta vitanana, un'wana ni un'wana ehansi ka murhi wa vhinya ni wa nkuwa.”
