Umbono Wesihlanu: Uthi Lwezibani Nezihlahla Ezimbili Zomnqumo
1Ingelosi eyayikhuluma nami yabuya, yangivusa njengomuntu evuswa ebuthongweni. 2Yathi kimi: “Ubonani na?”
Ngathi: “Ngibona, uthi lwezibani lonke luyigolide, kunesitsha phezu kwalo, nezibani eziyisikhombisa ezikulo; kukhona imibhobho eyisikhombisa kuleso naleso sibani esiphezu kwalo, 3neminqumo emibili eseceleni kothi, omunye ungakwesokunene sesitsha, nomunye ngakwesokhohlo saso.”
4Ngayibuza ingelosi eyayikhuluma nami, ngathi: “Mnuzane, kuyini lokhu na?”
5Ingelosi eyayikhuluma nami yangiphendula, yathi: “Awazi yini ukuthi kuyini lokhu na?”
Ngathi: “Qha, mnumzane.”
6Yayisithi kimi: “Lokhu yizwi likaSimakade eliqondiswe kuZerubhabhele elithi: ‘Kungabi ngempi, kungabi ngamandla, kodwa kube ngoMoya wami kuphela,’ kusho uSimakade Wamabandla.
7“Ungubani-ke wena ntaba enkulu na? Phambi kukaZerubhabhele uyakuba yithafa. Uyakukhipha itshe eliyinhloko ngokumemeza athi: ‘Umusa, umusa, mawube kulo!’ ”
8Izwi likaSimakade lafika kimi, lathi: 9“Izandla zikaZerubhabhele zibeke isisekelo sale ndlu, futhi yizona eziyakuqeda ukuyakha, uyakukwazi ukuthi nguSimakade Wamabandla ongithume kini. 10Ngokuba ngubani oyakudelela usuku lwezinto ezincane na? Bayakuthokoza, babone itshe lomthofu esandleni sikaZerubhabhele. Amehlo ayikhombisa kaSimakade abheke umhlaba wonke.”
11Ngase ngiyibuza, ngithi: “Zichazani lezi zihlahla ezimbili zomnqumo ezingakwesokunene sothi lwezibani nangakwesokhohlo salo na?”
12Ngabuza futhi okwesibili ngathi kuyo: “Achazani lawa magatsha amabili eminqumo aseceleni kwemibhobho emibili yegolide, okuthululwa ngayo amafutha egolide na?”
13Yangiphendula yathi: “Awazi ukuthi ayini?”
Ngaphendula ngathi: “Qha, mnumzane.”
14Yayisithi: “Lawa ngamadodana agcotshiweyo, ame ngakuMnuzane womhlaba wonke.”
