UIsaya 66 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

66 ¹Utsho uBawo wethu ukuthi: “Izulu lisisihlalo sam sobukhosi, nehlabathi sisihlalo seenyawo zam. Iphi na ke indlu eniya kundakhela yona? Iphi na indawo yokuphumla kwam? ²Isandla sam senzile zonke ezi zinto, zaza zonke zadalwa, utsho uBawo wethu. Kodwa nguye lo endiya kumkhangela: lowo uthobekileyo notyumkileyo emoyeni, nongcangcazela elizwini lam. ³Kodwa osukuba exhela inkomo unjengobulala umntu; osukuba ebingelela imvana, unjengoqhawula intamo yenja; osukuba esondeza umnikelo wokudla, unjengozisa igazi lehagu; osukuba eqhumisela intlaka emhlophe, unjengosikelela isithixo. Bazinyulele iindlela zabo, nomphefumlo wabo uyolisekile ngamasikizi abo. ⁴Nam ke ndiya kubanyulela impatho elukhuni, ndibawisele ukunkwantya kwabo, ngokuba ndathi ndakubiza, akwabakho uphendulayo; ndathi ndakuthetha, abaphulaphulanga. Benza okubi emehlweni am, banyula oko kungandikholisiyo.” ⁵Liveni ilizwi likaBawo wethu, nina bangcangcazela elizwini lakhe: “Abazalwana benu abanithiyayo, benigxotha ngenxa yegama lam, bathe: ‘Makazukiswe uBawo wethu, ukuze sibone ubuvuyo benu’—kodwa ngabo abaya kudaniswa.”

⁶Isandi sentlokoma siphuma emzini! Izwi liphuma etempileni! Lilizwi likaBawo wethu, ebuyekeza iintshaba zakhe ngoko bakwenzileyo!

⁷Ngaphambi kokuba abenenimba, wazala; ngaphambi kokuba imbulaleko imfikele, wazala unyana. ⁸Ngubani na owakha weva into enjengale? Ngubani na owakha wazibona izinto ezinjalo? Linokuzalwa na ilizwe ngemini enye? Isizwe singavezwa na ngephanyazo? Kanti ithe iZiyon ingekabi nenimba, yazala abantwana bayo.

⁹“Ndingathi ndinise kanye kumzuzu wokuzalwa, ndingaveleli na?” utsho uBawo wethu. “Ndingathi mna ovelisayo, ndivale na isizalo?” utsho uBawo wakho.

¹⁰Vuyani neYerusalem, nchwayite ngenxa yayo, nina nonke niyithandayo; vuyani nayo ngovuyo, nina nonke nikhedamileyo ngenxa yayo, ¹¹ukuze nanyiswe nihluthe emabeleni ayo athuthuzelayo, ukuze nisele ngokutsho ninchwayite ngobuqaqawuli bayo obuphuphumayo.

¹²Kuba utsho uBawo wethu ukuthi: “Ndiya kuyolula uxolo kuye njengomlambo, nobuqaqawuli beentlanga njengomfula ophuphumayo; noanyiswa, nithwalwe ngasecaleni, nixhaxhwe emadolweni ayo. ¹³Njengonina ethuthuzela umntwana wakhe, ndiya kunithuthuzela ngokunjalo; niya kuthuthuzeleka ke ngenxa yeYerusalem.” ^a a v13 UBawo wethu uzifanisa intuthuzelo yakhe nobunene bomama othuthuzela umntwana wakhe—intliziyo yakhe ngabantu bakhe inobubele obungaphezu kobunokuthwalwa nguwuphi na umfanekiso omnye womntu.

¹⁴Xa nikubonayo oku, intliziyo yenu iya kuvuya, namathambo enu aya kuhluma njengotyani olutsha; isandla sikaBawo wethu siya kwaziwa kubakhonzi bakhe, ke bona ubushushu bakhe kwiintshaba zakhe.

¹⁵Kuba khangela—uBawo wethu uya kuza nomlilo, neenqwelo zakhe zokulwa zinjengomoya ovuthuzayo, ukuze akhuphe umsindo wakhe ngokushushu, nokukhalima kwakhe ngelangatye lomlilo. ¹⁶Kuba ngomlilo nangekrele lakhe uBawo wethu uya kugweba yonke inyama, baze babe baninzi ababuleweyo nguBawo wethu.

¹⁷Abazingcwalisayo nabazihlambululayo ukuze bangene emiyezweni, belandela omnye ophakathi, besidla inyama yeehagu, nezinto ezilisikizi, neempuku, baya kuphela kunye, utsho uBawo wethu. ^b b v17 ‘Belandela omnye ophakathi’: ngumfanekiso osembindini wesithethe okanye isithixo esisentliziyweni yomsitho wabo wobuhedeni.

¹⁸Kuba ndiyazazi izenzo zabo nezicamango zabo. Lifikile ixesha lokuhlanganisa zonke iintlanga neelwimi; baya kuza babone uzuko lwam.

¹⁹Ndiya kumisa umqondiso phakathi kwabo, ndithumele abasindileyo ezintlangeni—eTarshishe, nasePuli, naseLudi (abatsala isaphetha), naseTubhali, naseYavan, nakwiziqithi ezikude ezingazange zive ngam, zingazange zilubone uzuko lwam. Baya kuxela uzuko lwam phakathi kweentlanga. ²⁰Baya kubazisa bonke abazalwana benu bevela kuzo zonke iintlanga, njengomnikelo kuBawo wethu—ngamahashe, ngeenqwelo zokulwa nangeenqwelo, ngoondlebende nangeenkamela—beze entabeni yam engcwele, iYerusalem, utsho yena, njengokuba amaSirayeli ezisa umnikelo wokudla ngesitya esihlambulukileyo endlwini kaBawo wethu. ²¹Kananjalo kubo ndiya kuthabatha abathile ukuba babe ngababingeleli nabaLevi, utsho uBawo wethu.

²²Kuba njengokuba amazulu amatsha nomhlaba omtsha endiyenzayo eya kuma phambi kwam, utsho uBawo wethu, ngokunjalo imbewu yenu negama lenu liya kuma. ²³Kususela kwinyanga entsha kuse kwinyanga entsha, nakwisabatha kuse kwisabatha, yonke inyama iya kuza kunqula phambi kwam, utsho uBawo wethu.

²⁴Baya kuphuma bakhangele izidumbu zabo babevukela mna; kuba umbungu wabo awuyi kufa, nomlilo wabo awuyi kucinywa, baya kuba yinto yokunyanyeka kuyo yonke inyama.
