11 ka­nti ingi­lo­siw, ezi­nku­lu nga­ma­ndla la­nge­nga­lo, ka­zi­le­thi isi­gwe­bo se­nhla­mba uku­me­la­na la­bo pha­mbi kwe­Nko­si.

12 Ko­dwa la­ba, nje­nge­zi­nya­ma­za­na nge­mve­lo ezi­nge­la­ngqo­ndox eza­za­le­lwa uku­ba­njwa lo­ku­bu­la­way, ba­hla­mba­za izi­nto aba­nga­za­zi­yoza, ba­za­bhu­ji­swab eku­bo­le­ni kwa­zoc,

13 ba­za­kwe­mu­ke­la umvu­zo wo­ku­nga­lu­ngid, aba­thi ku­yi­nto­ko­zo uku­mi­nza emi­nie; ba­yi­si­ci lo­ya­ngi­so, be­ja­bu­la enko­hli­swe­ni za­bof, be­si­dla idi­li la­nigh,

14 ba­la­me­hlo agcwe­le ubu­fe­be1, la­ba­nga­ye­ke­li iso­noi, ba­ye­ngaj imi­phe­fu­mu­lo ebu­tha­ka­tha­kak, be­le­nhli­zi­yo eze­jwa­ye­lel ubu­hwa­bam, aba­ntwa­na be­si­qa­le­ki­son;

15 ba­tshi­ye indle­la eqo­ndi­le­yo ba­du­hao, ba­la­nde­la indle­la ka­Ba­la­mi ka­Bo­so­rip, owa­tha­nda inzu­zo yo­ku­nga­lu­ngiq,

16 ko­dwa wa­ba lo­ku­so­lwa kwe­sa­khe isi­pha­mbe­ko; uba­bhe­mi oyi­si­mu­ngu­lu, ekhu­lu­ma nge­li­zwi lo­mu­ntu, wa­nqa­nda ubu­hla­nya bo­mpro­fe­thir.

17 La­ba ba­yi­mi­tho­mbo enge­la­ma­nzist, ama­ye­zi aqhu­tshwa yi­si­phe­phou, oku­gci­ne­lwe bo­na ubu­mnya­ma bo­mnya­ma ku­ze ku­be pha­ka­dev.

18 Ngo­ba ba­khu­lu­ma oko­ku­zi­qa­ki­sa okwe­zew, ba­ba­ye­nga nge­nka­nu­ko ze­nya­max la­ngo­bu­fe­bey la­boz aba­phu­nyu­ke si­bi­li ki­bo aba­ha­mba eku­du­he­nia,

19 be­ba­the­mbi­sa inku­lu­le­kob, bo­na uqo­bo be­yi­zi­gqi­lic zo­ku­bo­lad; ngo­ba lo­wo umu­ntu ehlu­lwe nga­ye, la­ku­ye we­nzi­wa isi­gqi­lie.

20 Ngo­ba uba se­be­phu­nyu­ki­lef eku­ngco­le­ni ko­mhla­bag ngo­lwa­zi lwe­Nko­si lo­Msi­ndi­si uJe­su Kri­stuh, be­se­be­bu­ya be­hi­le­lwa be­hlu­lwa yi­khoi, izi­nto zo­ku­ci­na se­zi­be zi­mbi ki­bo ku­le­zo­ku­qa­laj.

21 Ngo­ba nga­be kwa­ba ngco­no ki­bok uba ba­be­nga­ya­za­nga indle­la yo­ku­lu­ngal, ku­lo­ku­thi se­beya­zi­le ba­fu­la­the­lem umla­yo ongcwe­le oni­ke­lwe ki­bon.

22 Ko­dwa ku­be­hle­le lo­khu okwe­sa­ga esi­qi­ni­si­le­yoo esi­thi: Inja ibu­ye­la kwa­wa­yo ama­hla­nzop; le­ngu­lu­be ege­zi­le­yo eku­gi­qi­ke­ni eda­ke­ni.

Uku­fi­ka ko­su­ku lwe­Nko­si

3Incwa­di le eye­si­bi­li, ba­tha­nde­ka­yo, ngi­li­bha­le­la yo­na kha­the­si; oku­nga­zo zo­mbi­li ngi­vu­sea ingqo­ndo ye­nu eqo­tho ngo­kuli­khu­mbu­zab,

2 uku­ze li­khu­mbu­le ama­zwic akhu­lu­nywa nga­pha­mbi­li nga­ba­pro­fe­thi aba­ngcwe­led, lo­mla­yo we­thu esi­nga­ba­pho­sto­li be­Nko­si lo­Msi­ndi­sie;

3 ku­qa­la ya­zi­ni lo­khu, uku­thi eku­ci­ne­ni kwe­nsu­ku ku­za­fi­ka aba­hle­ka usu­luf, be­ha­mba ngo­kwe­za­bo inka­nu­kog,

4 nja­lo be­si­thi: Si­nga­phi isi­the­mbi­soh so­ku­za kwa­khe?i Ngo­ba se­lo­khu oba­ba ba­la­laj, ko­nke ku­mi ku­nja­lo ku­su­ke­la eku­qa­le­ni ko­ku­da­lwak.

5 Ngo­ba lo­khu ka­ba­kwa­zi nga­bo­mo, uku­thi ama­zu­lu aye­kho­na ku­su­ke­la endu­lo, lo­mhla­ba, ukho­na uve­la ema­nzi­ni nja­lo ukho­na nga­ma­nzi, nge­li­zwi li­ka­Nku­lu­nku­lulmno,

6 oku­nga­lo ili­zwe ela­li­kho­na la­bhu­ji­swa ngo­ku­gcwa­li­swa nga­ma­nzip;

7 ko­dwa ama­zu­lu lo­mhla­ba oku­kho­na kha­the­si ku­be­ki­we nga­lo­na le­lo­li­zwiq, ku­gci­ne­lwe umli­lor osu­kwi­ni lo­kwa­hlu­le­lwas lo­ku­bhu­ji­swa kwa­ba­ntu abe­yi­sa uNku­lu­nku­lut.

8 Ko­dwa li­nto­nye ka­ku­me­la­nga inga­zi­wa ki­ni, ba­tha­nde­ka­yo, uku­thi usu­ku olu­lo­dwa eNko­si­ni lu­nje­nge­mi­nya­ka eyi­nku­lu­ngwa­ne, le­mi­nya­ka eyi­nku­lu­ngwa­ne nje­ngo­su­ku olu­lo­dwau.

9 INko­si ye­si­the­mbi­so ka­yi­do­ndiv, nje­nga­lo­khu aba­nye be­si­thi yi­ku­do­nda; ko­dwa iya­si­be­ke­ze­le­law, inga­tha­ndi uku­thi la­mu­nye abhu­bhex ko­dwa uku­thi bo­nke ba­fi­nye­le­le eku­phe­ndu­ke­niy.

10 Ko­dwa usu­ku lwe­Nko­siz lu­za­fi­ka nje­nge­se­la ebu­su­kua, oku­za­ku­thi nga­lo ama­zu­lu adlu­le ngo­ku­hlo­ko­mab, lo­ko­ku­qa­la ku­za­di­li­zwa ngo­ku­tshi­sa oku­khu­luc, lo­mhla­ba le­mi­se­be­nzi eku­wo ku­za­tshi­swad.

11 Nje­ngo­ba zo­nke le­zi­zi­nto zi­di­li­zwa, ku­me­le li­be nga­ba­nja­nie eku­ha­mbe­ni oku­ngcwe­lef le­ku­kho­nze­ni uNku­lu­nku­lug,

12 li­li­nde­leh li­la­nga­ze­le­la1 uku­fi­kai ko­su­ku lu­ka­Nku­lu­nku­luj, oku­nga­lo ama­zu­lu aza­ku­tsha adi­li­zwek, lo­ko­ku­qa­lal ku­nci­bi­li­ke ngo­ku­tshi­sa oku­khu­lum.

13 Ko­dwa ngo­kwe­si­the­mbi­so sa­khe si­li­nde­len ama­zu­lu ama­tsha lo­mhla­ba omu­tshao, oku­hla­la ku­kho uku­lu­ngap.

14 Nga­kho, ba­tha­nde­ka­yoq, li­li­nde­le le­zi­zi­ntor, tshi­se­ke­la­ni uku­thi li­fi­cwe ngu­ye eku­thu­le­nis li­nge­la­cwa­tsha­nat nja­lo li­nga­so­le­kiu.

15 Be­se­li­si­thi uku­be­ke­ze­la kwe­Nko­si ye­thu ku­lu­si­ndi­sov, nje­nga­lo­khu lo­mza­lwa­ne we­thu otha­nde­ka­yo uPa­wu­li wa­li­bha­le­la, ngo­kwe­nhla­ka­ni­pho eya­phi­wa ye­na;

16 nje­ngo­ba ku­nja­lo le­ncwa­di­ni za­khe zo­nke, ekhu­lu­ma ku­zo nga­le­zi­zi­ntow, oku­ku­zo ku­kho­na izi­nto ezi­thi­le ezi­lu­khu­ni uku­zwi­si­se­kax, oku­thi aba­nga­zi­yo la­ba­nga­qi­na­nga ba­zi­hla­ne­ke­ley, la­nje­nga­kwe­mi­nye imi­bha­lo, ku­be ko­kwa­bo uku­bhu­ji­swa.

17 Nga­kho li­na, ba­tha­nde­ka­yo, li­sa­zi ma­ndu­loz, na­nze­le­la­nia, uku­ze li­nga­du­hi­swa yi­nko­hli­so ya­ba­nge­la­mla­yob, li­we ko­kwe­nu uku­qi­nac.

18 Ko­dwa khu­la­ni emu­se­nid le­lwa­zi­ni lwe­Nko­si ye­thu lo­Msi­ndi­si uJe­su Kri­stue. Ubu­kho­si ka­bu­be ku­ye la­kha­the­si nja­lo ku­ze ku­be lu­su­ku lwa­pha­ka­de. Ame­nif.
