Ukuphalazwa Kwezitya Ezisixhenxe
Izitya ziza zingenasithuba: izilonda, ulwandle olunjengegazi lesidumbu, imilambo, ilanga elitshisayo, ubumnyama, iYufrati eyomisiweyo ukuvulela ookumkani abahlaselayo. Betshiswa benentlungu, abantu banyelisa uBawo wethu baze bale ukuguquka. Isitya sesixhenxe siyakuphelisa—Kugqityiwe—size iBhabhilon ikhunjulwe.
16 1Ndeva izwi elikhulu livela etempileni lixelela izithunywa ezisixhenxe, lisithi: “Hambani, niphalaze izitya ezisixhenxe zengqumbo kaThixo emhlabeni.”
2Isithunywa sokuqala saphalaza isitya saso emhlabeni; kwaza kwaqhambuka izilonda ezibi, ezinobuhlungu, kwabo bebenophawu lwerhamncwa, bequbuda kumfanekiso walo.
3Esesibini saphalaza isitya saso elwandle; laba ligazi elinjengelesidumbu, kwafa yonke into ephilileyo elwandle.
4Isithunywa sesithathu saphalaza isitya saso emilanjeni nasemithonjeni yamanzi; aba ligazi. 5Ndeva isithunywa samanzi sisithi: “Ulilungisa, wena Bawo, okhoyo nowayekho, wena oyiNgcwele, ngokuba uzigwebile ezi zinto. 6Kuba baliphalaza igazi labangcwele bakho nabaprofeti, waza wena wabanika igazi ukuba basele. Kungako abakufaneleyo.”
7Ndeva isibingelelo siphendula sisithi: “Ewe, Nkosi Bawo Somandla, iyinyaniso ilungisile imigwebo yakho.”
8Isithunywa sesine saphalaza isitya saso elangeni; lanikwa ukuba litshise abantu ngomlilo. 9Betshiswa bubushushu obukhulu, abantu balinyelisa igama likaBawo wethu, yena olawula ezi zibetho, baza abavuma ukuguquka nokumnika uzuko.
10Isithunywa sesihlanu saphalaza isitya saso etroneni yerhamncwa; kwaba mnyama ubukumkani balo; abantu bawaluma ulwimi lwabo ngenxa yeentlungu, 11balinyelisa uBawo wethu wasezulwini ngenxa yeentlungu zabo nezilonda zabo, bengavumi ukuguquka kwimisebenzi yabo.
12Isithunywa sesithandathu saphalaza isitya saso emlanjeni omkhulu owumEfrati; atsha amanzi awo, ukuze kulungiselelwe indlela yookumkani abavela empumalanga. 13Ndabona oomoya abangcolileyo abathathu abanjengamasele bephuma emilonyeni yenamba, nowerhamncwa, nowomprofeti wobuxoki. 14Bangoomoya beedemon abenza imiqondiso, baphuma baya kookumkani belizwe lonke ukuba babahlanganisele imfazwe ngemini enkulu kaBawo wethu, uSomandla.
15“Yabona, ndiza njengesela! Unentsikelelo lowo ulindayo, alondoloze iingubo zakhe, ukuze angahambi ze, babubone ubuze bakhe.” a a v15 Lo nguYesu othethayo — isithembiso sakhe sesiqu esithetha yena ngequbuliso esifakwe kwibali lezitya, siphindaphinda amazwi akhe angaphambili kwiSityhilelo 3:3.
16Baza babahlanganisela ookumkani ndawonye kwindawo ngesiHebhere ekuthiwa yiArmagedon. b b v16 IArmagedon ithetha ‘intaba yaseMegido’ — intili esentla kwaSirayeli, indawo yeemfazwe ezibalulekileyo zamandulo, esetyenziswe apha ukubonisa ukuhlanganiswa kokugqibela kookumkani ngokuchasene noBawo wethu.
17Isithunywa sesixhenxe saphalaza isitya saso esibhakabhakeni; kwaza kwavela izwi elikhulu livela etroneni yasetempileni lisithi: “Kwenzekile!” 18Kwaphuma imibane, kwavakala izandi, kwaduduma iindudumo, kwabakho unyikimo olukhulu—olungazanga lubekho selokhu kwabakho abantu emhlabeni—lwaluluhle kangaka olo nyikimo. 19Umzi omkhulu wahlukana ngezahlulo ezithathu; yawa imizi yeentlanga. IBhabhilon enkulu yakhunjulwa phambi koBawo wethu, ukuze ayisele indebe yewayini yengqumbo yakhe evutha. 20Zonke iziqithi zasaba, neentaba azafunyanwa. 21Amatye esichotho amakhulu, elowo ulingana nekhulu leeponti, awa evela ezulwini ehla phezu kwabantu; abantu bamnyelisa uBawo wethu ngenxa yesibetho sesichotho, ngokuba sasiselikhulu kunene eso sibetho.
