Umbono weMvana nabasindisiweyo
1Ndabona, nantso iMvana imi phezu kwentaba yeZiyon, kumi nayo ikhulu elinamanci mané anesiné lamawaka, benalo igama loYise libhaliwe emabunzini abo. 2Ndeva izwi liphuma ezulwini, lingathi sisandi samanzi amaninzi, lingathi sisandi sendudumo enkulu. Ndeva nezwi lababethi beehadi, bebetha iihadi zabo; 3bevuma ingoma engathi intsha, phambi kwetrone, naphambi kwezinto eziphilileyo zoné, namadoda amakhulu; kwaye kungekho namnye unako ukuyifunda ingoma leyo, lingelilo ikhulu elinamanci mané anesiné lamawaka, ababethengiwe emhlabeni. 4Aba ngabo bangadyobhekanga ngabafazi, kuba benyulu. Aba ngabo bayilandelàyo iMvana apho isukuba isiya khona. Aba báthengwa bephuma ebantwini, baziintlahlela kuye uThixo nakuyo iMvana. 5Emlonyeni wabo akufunyanwanga nkohliso, kuba bengenakubekwa bala.
Umbono wezithunywa ezithathu
6Ndabona esinye isithunywa sezulu, siphaphazela esazulwini samazulu, sineendaba ezilungileyo ezingunaphakade, ukuba sizishumayele kwabo bemiyo phezu komhlaba, nakwiintlanga zonke, nezizwe, neelwimi, nabantu; 7sisithi ngezwi elikhulu, Moyikeni uThixo, nimzukise; ngokuba lifikile ixa lokugweba kwakhe; nimnqule lowo wenza izulu, nomhlaba, nolwandle, nemithombo yamanzi.
8Kwaza kwalandela esinye isithunywa sezulu, sisithi, Iwile, iwile iBhabheli, loo mzi mkhulu! ngokuba isezé zonke iintlanga ngewayini yomsindo wobuhenyu bayo.
9Saza esesithathu isithunywa sezulu sazilandela zona, sisithi ngezwi elikhulu, Ukuba umntu uyalinqula irhamncwa nomfanekiselo walo, amkele uphawu lwalo ebunzini lakhe, nokuba kusesandleni sakhe: 10yena wosela iwayini yomsindo kaThixo, egalelwe ingaphithikeziwe endebeni yengqumbo yakhe, athuthunjiswe ngomlilo nesulfure phambi kwezithunywa ezingcwele, naphambi kweMvana. 11Umsi wokuthuthunjelwa kwabo unyuka use emaphakadeni asemaphakadeni; àbanakuphumla imini nobusuku abo banqula irhamncwa nomfanekiselo walo, nomntu ukuba uthi alwamkele uphawu lwegama lalo.
12Nalu unyamezelo lwabangcwele; nabá abayigcinàyo imithetho kaThixo nokukholwa kuYesu.
13Ndeva izwi liphuma emazulwini, lisithi kum, Bhala, uthi, Banoyolo abafi, abo bafela eNkosini, kuthabathela apha; ewe, utsho uMoya, ukuba baphumle ekubulalekeni kwabo; imisebenzi yabo ke ilandelana nabo.
Ukuvunwa nokuxovulwa komdiliya womhlaba
14Ndabona, nalo ilifu elimhlophe; elifini apho kuhleli ofana noNyana woMntu, enesithsaba segolide entloko, esandleni sakhe enerhengqa elibukhali. 15Kwaphuma esinye isithunywa sezulu etempileni, sidanduluka ngezwi elikhulu kulo uhleli efini, sisithi, Lifake irhengqa lakho, uvune; ngokuba lifikile kuwe ilixa lokuvuna; ngokuba ukudla komhlaba kuvuthiwe. 16Lowo uhleli efini waliphosa irhengqa lakhe emhlabeni; wavunwa ke umhlaba.
17Kwaza kwaphuma esinye isithunywa sezulu etempileni esemazulwini, naso sikwanerhengqa elibukhali. 18Kwaphuma esinye isithunywa sezulu esibingelelweni, sinegunya kuwo umlilo; sabiza ngonkqangazo olukhulu kweso sinerhengqa elibukhali, sisithi, Lifake irhengqa lakho elibukhali, ubuthe izihloko zomdiliya womhlaba, ngokuba iidiliya zawo zigqibele ukuvuthwa. 19Isithunywa saliphosa irhengqa laso emhlabeni, sawubutha umdiliya womhlaba, sawuphosa esixovulelweni esikhulu somsindo kaThixo. 20Isixovulelo eso sanyathelwa ngaphandle komzi lowo; kwaphuma igazi esixovulelweni eso, lada lafika emikhaleni yamahashe, umgama wezitadiya• eziliwaka elinamakhulu amathandathu.
