IZenzo 3:17-26

“Manje, bazalwane, ngiyazi ukuthi nakwenza lokho ngokungazi njengababusi benu. Kepha lokho uNkulunkulu akubikezele ngaphambilini ngomlomo wabo bonke abaphrofethi, ukuthi uKhristu wakhe uyakuhlupheka, ukugcwalise kanje. Ngakho-ke phendukani, niguquke ukuba zithethelelwe izono zenu, khona kuzakufika izikhathi zokuhlunyelelwa ezivela ebusweni beNkosi nokuba ithume uKhristu uJesu enimmiselweyo, okufanele ukuba izulu limamukele, kuze kube yizikhathi zokubuyiselwa kwakho konke uNkulunkulu akhuluma ngakho ngomlomo wabaphrofethi bakhe abangcwele, kusukela emaphakadeni. UMose impela wathi: ‘INkosi uNkulunkulu uyakunivusela umphrofethi onjengami kubazalwane benu, niyakukulalela konke akukhuluma kini.’ “Kuyakuthi wonke umuntu ongayukumlalela lowo mphrofethi, abhujiswe kubantu. “Yebo, nabaphrofethi bonke, kusukela kuSamuweli nabamlandelayo, bonke ababekhulume, bamemezela ngalezo zinsuku. Nina ningamadodana abaphrofethi nawesivumelwano uNkulunkulu asenza kokhokho benu, ethi ku-Abhrahama: ‘Ngolibo lwakho, iyakubusiswa imindeni yonke yomhlaba.’ “UNkulunkulu eseyivusile iNceku yakhe wayithumela kini kuqala ukuba anibusise ngokuniphendula, kube yilowo nalowo aphenduke ebubini bakhe.”
