ISAMBULO 15
Izingelosi eziyisikhombisa nezinhlupho eziyisikhombisa zokugcina
1Ngase ngibona esinye isibonakaliso ezulwini esikhulu nesimangalisayo: izingelosi eziyisikhombisa zinezinhlupho eziyisikhombisa zokugcina, ngokuba kwapheleliswa ngazo ulaka lukaNkulunkulu.
2Ngabona kungathi ulwandle lwengilazi luxubene nomlilo, nabavela ekunqobeni isilo nomfanekiso waso nesibalo segama laso bemi ngaselwandle lwengilazi, benamahabhu* kaNkulunkulu.
3Bahlabelela igama likaMose inceku kaNkulunkulu negama leWundlu, bathi:
Mikhulu, iyamangalisa imisebenzi yakho,
Nkosi Nkulunkulu, Mninimandla onke;
zilungile, ziqinisile izindlela zakho
wena-Nkosi yezizwe;
4ngubani ongayikwesaba, Nkosi,
adumise igama lakho, na?
Ngokuba wena wedwa ungcwele,
nezizwe zonke ziyakuza
zikhuleke phambi kwakho,
ngokuba izenzo zakho zokulunga zibonakalisiwe.
5Emva kwalokho ngabona, kwase kuvulwa ithempeli letabernakele* lobufakazi ezulwini,
6kwaphuma ethempelini izingelosi eziyisikhombisa ezinezinhlupho eziyisikhombisa, zembethe ingubo yelineni ehlanzekileyo nekhazimulayo, zizibophé ezifubeni ngamabhande* egolide.
7Esinye sezidalwa ezine sanika izingelosi eziyisikhombisa izitsha zegolide, zigcwele ulaka lukaNkulunkulu ophilayo kuze kube-phakade naphakade.
8Ithempeli lagcwala umusi ovela ekukhazimuleni kukaNkulunkulu nasemandleni akhe; akakho owayengangena ethempelini, zingakapheleli izinhlupho eziyisikhombisa zezingelosi eziyisikhombisa.
