Abahluleli 2:11-19 CZB24

Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli benza okubi emehlweni kaJehova, bakhonza oBali. Bamshiya uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise owabakhipha ezweni laseGibithe, balandela abanye onkulunkulu bezizwe ezazibazungeza, bakhothamela, bamcunula uJehova intukuthelo. Bamshiya uJehova, bakhonza oBali no-Ashitaroti. Intukuthelo kaJehova yamvuthela u-Israyeli, wabanikela esandleni sabaphangi ababaphanga, wathengisa ngabo esandleni sezitha zabo nxazonke, ukuze bangabe besakwazi ukuma phambi kwezitha zabo. Nomaphi lapho bephumela khona, isandla sikaJehova sasimelene nabo ngokubi, njengokukhuluma kukaJehova nanjengoba uJehova wayebathembisile ngesifungo; bakhathazeka kakhulu. Kodwa uJehova wavusa abahluleli ababasindisa esandleni salabo ababebaphanga. Nokho kabalalelanga abahluleli bawo, kodwa baphinga ngokulandela abanye onkulunkulu, babakhothamela. Kodwa kabakwenzanga lokho. Kwathi lapho uJehova ebavusela abahluleli, uJehova wayenaye umahluleli, wabasindisa esandleni sezitha zabo zonke izinsuku zomahluleli; ngokuba uJehova wazisola kubo, wakhala ngenxa yalabo ababebacindezela. Futhi wabacasula. Kwathi lapho esefile umahluleli, babuya futhi bonakalisa bona ngaphezu kwawoyise ngokulandela abanye onkulunkulu ukuba babakhonze futhi babakhothamele; abazange bayeke izenzo zabo kanye nezindlela zabo ezilukhuni.
