Umbono werhamncwa lolwandle nelomhlaba
1Ndaza ndema phezu kwentlabathi yolwandle.
Ndabona kunyuka, kuphuma elwandle, irhamncwa, lineentloko ezisixhenxe neempondo ezilishumi, ezimpondweni zalo izizithsaba ezilishumi, kwiintloko zalo iligama lonyeliso. 2Laye irhamncwa elo ndalibonayo lifana nengwe, iinyawo zalo zinjengezebhere,• umlomo walo unjengomlomo wengonyama. Inamba yalinika amandla ayo, netrone yayo, negunya elikhulu.
3Ndabona enye yazo iintloko zalo, ingathi ixatyelwe yafa; inxeba lalo elibanga ukufa laphiliswa. Wamangaliswa umhlaba uphela, walilandela irhamncwa elo. 4Bayinqula inamba eyalinika igunya irhamncwa, balinqula irhamncwa, besithi, Ngubani na ofana nerhamncwa elo? ngubani na onako ukulwa nalo?
5Lanikwa umlomo othetha izinto ezinkulu, nezinyeliso; kanjalo lanikwa igunya lokulwa iinyanga ezimashumi mané anesibini. 6Lawuvulela umlomo walo ekumnyeliseni uThixo, ukuba lilinyelise igama lakhe, nomnquba wakhe, nabo bahleli emazulwini. 7Lanikwa igunya lokulwa nabangcwele, libeyise; lanikwa igunya kuzo zonke izizwe, neelwimi, neentlanga. 8Baya kulinqula bonke abo bemiyo phezu komhlaba, abamagama angabhalwanga encwadini yobomi yayo iMvana, exheliweyo kususela ekusekweni kwehlabathi. 9Ukuba ubani unendlebe, makeve.
10Ukuba ubani uhlanganisela abanye ekuthinjweni, naye uya kusiwa ekuthinjweni; ukuba ubani ubulala ngekrele, umelwe kukubulawa naye ngekrele. Nalu unyamezelo nokholo lwabangcwele.
11Ndabona elinye irhamncwa linyuka liphuma emhlabeni; laye lineempondo ezimbini zifana nezemvana, laye lithetha njengenamba. 12Lenza lonke igunya lelokuqala irhamncwa, elalingaphambi kwalo; lenza umhlaba, nabo bawumiyo, ukuba balinqule irhamncwa lokuqala, elaphiliswayo inxeba lalo elibanga ukufa. 13Lenza imiqondiso emikhulu, ukuze lihlise nomlilo ezulwini, uze emhlabeni phambi kwabantu, 14libalahlekise abo bemiyo phezu komhlaba, ngemiqondiso elayinikwayo ukuba liyenze emehlweni erhamncwa elo; lisithi kwabo bemiyo phezu komhlaba, mabalenzele umfanekiselo irhamncwa, elibe linenxeba lalo ikrele, laphila.
15Lanikwa igunya lokuwunika umfanekiselo werhamncwa umoya, ukuze umfanekiselo werhamncwa elo uthethe nokuthetha, wenze ukuba babulawe abasukuba bengaqubudi kuwo umfanekiselo werhamncwa. 16Lenza bonke, abancinane nabakhulu, abazizityebi nabangamahlwempu, abakhululekileyo nabangamakhoboka, ukuba baphawulwe lilo esandleni sabo sokunene, nokuba kusemabunzini abo; 17nokuze kungabikho mntu unako ukuthenga nokuthengisa, ingenguye lowo unophawu, nokuba ligama lerhamncwa, nokuba linani legama lalo.
18Nabu ubulumko. Lowo unengqiqo makalibale inani lerhamncwa; kuba linani lomntu; inani lalo ke lingamakhulu omathandathu anamanci mathandathu anesithandathu.
