IZENZO 3:17-26 IZIBHALO EZINGCWELE (XHO75)
Nangoku, bazalwana, ndiyazi ukuba nenzé ngokungazi, njengabo nabo abaphathi benu. Ke uThixo, izinto awazixela ngenxa engaphambili ngomlomo wabo bonke abaprofeti bakhe, zokuba uKristu eve ubunzima, uzizalisile wenjenje. Guqukani ke ngoko, nibuye, ukuze zicinywe izono zenu; ngokokuze afike amathuba okuphumza, evela ebusweni beNkosi; ithùme uYesu Kristu, owayevakalisiwe kuni ngenxa engaphambili; lowo kumele okunene ukuba amazulu amamkele, kude kufike amaxesha okubuyiswa kweento zonke, awawathethayo uThixo ngomlomo wabo bonke abaprofeti bakhe abangcwele, kususela kunaphakade. Kuba uMoses okunene wathi koobawo, INkosi uThixo wenu iya kunivelisela umprofeti kubazalwana benu, onjengam nje; ze nimve yena kuzo zonke izinto asukuba eya kuzithetha kuni. Yothi ke yonke imiphefumlo engathanga imve loo mprofeti, ibhujiswe kuphele phakathi kwabantu. Nabo ke bonke abaprofeti, bethabathela kuSamuweli nakwabalandelayo, bonke abathethileyo, bayixela loo mihla ngenxa engaphambili. Nina ningoonyana babo abaprofeti, nabomnqophiso awanqophisana ngawo noobawo bethu uThixo, esithi kuAbraham, Yaye ke iya kusikeleleka embewini yakho yonke imizalwane yehlabathi. Uthe uThixo, akuba emvusile umkhonzi wakhe uYesu, wamthuma kuni kuqala, ukuba anisikelele ngokuniguqula nonke ngabanye kwiinkohlakalo zenu.
IZENZO 3:17-26 IBHAYIBHILE (XHO96)
“Ndiyazi ke, mawethu, ukuba nina neenkokheli zenu le nto niyenze kuYesu ngokungazi. Loo nto ngoko uThixo wayazisayo ngabo bonke *abashumayeli, yokuba umelwe kukubandezeleka, uyizalisekisile. Guqukani ke ngoko, nibuyele kuThixo, ukuze zicinywe izono zenu; nize nifumane amathuba okuhlaziyeka komoya evela eNkosini, nokuze imthumele uYesu onguKrestu oselenikwe nina. Yena uya kuhlala ezulwini kude kufike ixesha lokuhlaziywa kwezinto zonke, njengoko uThixo wâzisáyo mandulo ngabashumayeli bakhe abanyuliweyo. Kaloku uMosis wathi: ‘INkosi uThixo wenu iya kunithumela umshumayeli ophuma kwalapha kumawenu njengam. Maze nimphulaphule kuyo yonke into anixelela yona. Nabani na ke ongamphulaphuliyo lo mshumayeli uya kusikwa ebantwini bakaThixo atshatyalaliswe.’ Abashumayeli bonke ukususela kuSamweli nabo bamlandeláyo, bayixela le mihla sikuyo. Nisisizukulwana sabashumayeli, ninenxaxheba kumnqophiso owenziwa nguThixo nooyihlo-mkhulu, xa wathi kuAbraham: ‘Ngesinqe sakho ndiya kubasikelela bonke abantu bomhlaba.’ UThixo ke esimisele isiCaka sakhe wasithumela kuni kuqala, ukuze anenzele inceba niguquke kwinkohlakalo yenu.”

Nangoku, bazalwana, ndiyazi ukuba nenze ngokungazi, njengabo nabo abaphathi benu. Ke zona izinto uThixo, awazixelayo ngenxa engaphambili ngomlomo wabo bonke abaprofeti bakhe, ukuba uKristu wayeza kuva ubunzima, wenjenjalo ukuzalisekisa oko. Guqukani ke ngoko, nijike, ukuze zicinywe izono zenu; ithume uYesu Kristu, owavakaliswayo kuni ngenxa engaphambili; elimelwe kukumamkela izulu, kude kufike amaxesha okubuyiswa kweento zonke, awawathethayo uThixo ngomlomo wabo bonke abaprofeti bakhe abangcwele, kususela kunaphakade. Kaloku uMosis wathi koobawo: “iNkosi uThixo wenu iya kunivelisela umprofeti kubazalwana benu onjengam nje; ize nimve yena kuzo zonke izinto asukuba eya kuzithetha kuni. Yothi ke yonke imiphefumlo engathanga imve loo mprofeti, itshatyalaliswe, ingabikho phakathi kwabantu. Nabo bonke abaprofeti, ukususela kuSamuweli nabalandelayo, bonke abo bathethayo, baprofeta ngokunjalo ngale mihla. Nina ningoonyana babo abaprofeti, nabomnqophiso awanqophisana ngawo noobawo bethu uThixo, esithi kuAbraham, Yaye ke iya kusikeleleka embewini yakho yonke imizalwane yehlabathi. uThixo ke, akuba emvusile uNyana wakhe uYesu, wamthuma kuni kuqala, ukuba anisikelele ngokuniguqula nonke ngabanye kwiinkohlakalo zenu.

Nakaloku, bazalwana! ndiyazi ukuba nanikwenza oku ngako ukungazi, njengokuba benje njalo nabapati benu. Kodwa ezonto UTIXO wazishumayelayo pambili ngomlomo wabo bonke abaprofite bake, zokuba u‐Kristu eve intlungu, uzizalisekisile ngokunjalo. Gqobokani ngoko, niguquke, ukuba zicinywe izono zenu; ukuze kube kufika amaxesha onwabiso evela ebusweni BENKOSI; ize itume u‐Yesu Kristu obeshunyayelwe pambili kuni; ekufanele ukuba izulu limamkele kude kube ngamaxesha okuhlaziywa kwezinto zonke, ate UTIXO wateta ngawo ngomlomo wabo bonke abaprofite bake abangcwele bakudala. Ngokuba u‐Mosesi watsho kubo obawo ukuti: UYEHOVA, UTIXO wenu, wonivusela umprofite, kubazalwana benu, njengam: yena niya kumva ngento zonke asukuba eziteta kuni. Kwakuya kuti, yonke imipefumlo esukuba ingamva umprofite lowo, iya kutshatyalaliswa ebantwini. Ewe nabaprofite bonke, kutabata ku‐Samyali nabalandelana kamva, kwa bonke abatetileyo, bashumayela pambili nabo ngalemihla. Nina nilusapo lwabaprofite, nolwocebano owalwenzayo UTIXO nobawo betu, esiti ku‐Abrahame: Kanjalo ngenzalo yako ziya kutanyusanqelwa zonke izizalwane zomhlaba. Kuni kuqala, UTIXO, esivusile isicaka sake u‐Yesu, wasituma sibe sinitamsanqela, ekunisongeni nonke ngabanye kwizikohlakalo zenu.
