ILizwi Lika Nkulunkulu Lokucina: INdodana Yakhe
Kudala uNkulunkulu wakhuluma kubokhokho kanenginengi ngabaphrofethi langezindlela ezehlukeneyo kodwa ngalezizinsuku zokucina ukhulume kithi ngeNdodana yakhe, ayibeka ukuba yindlalifa yezinto zonke, yona adala ngayo izulu lomhlaba. INdodana iyikubenyezela kwenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu kanye lomfanekiso wokuba nguye kwakhe uqobo, iqinisa izinto zonke ngelizwi layo elilamandla. Emva kokuba isikufezile ukuhlanjululwa kwezono, yahlala phansi esandleni sokunene sobukhosi ezulwini. Ngakho yaba ngaphezu kwezingilosi ngoba ibizo eyalithola njengelifa lilikhulu kulelazo.
INdodana Ingaphezulu Kwezingilosi
Ngoba kukuyiphi ingilosi uNkulunkulu ake wathi kuyo:
“Wena uyiNdodana yami;
lamhla sengibe nguYihlo”*?
Kumbe njalo wathi,
“Ngizakuba nguYise,
yona izakuba yiNdodana yami”?
Njalo, lapho uNkulunkulu eletha izibulo lakhe emhlabeni, uthi:
“Zonke izingilosi zikaNkulunkulu kazimkhonze.”
Lapho ekhuluma ngezingilosi uthi,
“Wenza izingilosi zakhe zibe yimimoya,
izinceku zakhe zibe ngamalangabi omlilo.Ӥ
Kodwa ngeNdodana uthi,
“Isihlalo sakho sobukhosi, Oh Nkulunkulu,
sizakuma nini lanini,
intonga yokwahlulela okulungileyo
izakuba yintonga yombuso wakho.
Ukuthandile ukulunga wazonda ububi;
ngakho uNkulunkulu,
uNkulunkulu wakho
usekubeke ngaphezu kwabakhula bakho
ngokukugcoba ngamafutha entokozo.”*
10 Njalo uthi,
“Ekuqaleni, Oh Nkosi, wabeka izisekelo zomhlaba,
lamazulu angumsebenzi wezandla zakho.
11 Kuzabhubha kodwa wena uzasala;
konke kuzaguga njengesigqoko.
12 Uzakugoqa njengesembatho;
kuzantshintshwa njengesigqoko.
Kodwa wena uhlala unjalo,
leminyaka yakho kayiyikuphela.”
13 Kukuyiphi ingilosi uNkulunkulu ake wathi kuyo:
“Hlala ngakwesokunene sami;
ngize ngenze izitha zakho
zibe yisinyathelo senyawo zakho”?
14 Izingilosi kazisimimoya esebenzayo yini, ethunywe ukukhonza labo abazakudla ilifa lokusindiswa na?
