Umyalelo wokwakhiwa kwendlu kaThixo
1Ngomhla wokuqala kwinyanga yesithandathu kunyaka wesibini wolawulo lukakumkani uDariyo, ilizwi *likaNdikhoyo lafika *kumshumayeli uHagayi. Lalibhekiswa kwirhuluneli yamaJuda uZerubhabheli unyana kaShelatiyeli, kunye nombingeleli omkhulu uYeshuwa unyana kaYozadaki, lisithi: 2“UNdikhoyo onamandla onke uthi: ‘Aba bantu bathi: “Eli alikabi loxesha lokuyakha indlu kaNdikhoyo.” ’ ”
3Ke ilizwi likaNdikhoyo lafika kumshumayeli uHagayi lisithi: 4“Ngani ukuba nina nihlale ezindlwini ezifanelekileyo, kodwa yona indlu yam ibe ilinxuwa? 5Ke ngoko utsho uNdikhoyo onamandla onke ukuthi: ‘Zigqaleni iindlela zenu. 6Nihlwayela kakhulu, kodwa nivune kancinane; ewe, niyadla, kodwa ningahluthi; niyasela, kodwa ninganeli; niyambatha, kodwa ningafudumali; niyaphangela, kodwa umvuzo wenu ube ngathi ufakwe engxoweni evuzayo.’
7“Utsho ke uNdikhoyo onamandla onke ukuthi: ‘Zigqaleni iindlela zenu. 8Khaninyuke ezintabeni, nize nemithi, niyakhe indlu yam. Ndokholiswa yiyo, ndize ndizimaseke,’ utsho uNdikhoyo. 9‘Benilindele lukhulu, kodwa suka nazuz' intwan' encinci! Nithe nakuza nayo ekhaya, ndayivuthela yee shwaka! Ngani ke?’ utsho uNdikhoyo onamandla onke. ‘Kungenxa yendlu yam, yona le ilinxuwa, nibe nina elowo exakeke yeyakhe indlu. 10Kungenxa yenu ke ngoko ukuba izulu liwubambe umbethe walo, nomhlaba utsho ungavelisi nto. 11Ke ndinizisele imbalela emasimini, emadlelweni, kwingqolowa, kwiwayini, namafutha omnquma, nayo nayiphi na into eveliswa ngumhlaba. Ikho ezinkomeni, nasebantwini, nakuwo wonke umsebenzi wezandla zenu.’ ”
Abantu bathobela umyalelo
12Ke kaloku uZerubhabheli unyana kaShelatiyeli, nombingeleli omkhulu uYeshuwa unyana kaYozadaki, nabo bonke abantu abangamasalela, bawuthobela bawenza umyalelo *kaNdikhoyo uThixo wabo, ngokwamazwi *omshumayeli uHagayi.
13Ke uHagayi, isigidimi sikaNdikhoyo, waluthetha udaba lukaNdikhoyo ebantwini, wathi: “Ndiya kuba nani.” 14Ke uNdikhoyo wawuvuselela umoya werhuluneli uZerubhabheli unyana kaShelatiyeli, nowombingeleli omkhulu uYeshuwa unyana kaYozadaki, nowabo bonke abantu abangamasalela, beza ke bawuqalisa umsebenzi wokwakhiwa kwendlu kaNdikhoyo onamandla onke uThixo wabo 15ngomhla wamashumi amabini anesine kwinyanga yesithandathu ngonyaka wesibini wolawulo lukakumkani uDariyo.
