← Chapter 8 Jump to: Chapter 10 →

1Ngikhuluma iqiniso kuKristu,

2ukuthi ngilokudabuka okukhulu, lobuhlungu obungapheliyo enhliziyweni yami.

3Ngoba ngingafisa ukuthi;

4abangamaIsrayeli,

5abangababo obaba.

6Kodwa kakunjengokuthi ilizwi likaNkulunkulu lehlulekile;

7njalo kungesikuthi ngoba bayinzalo kaAbrahama, bonke bangabantwana.

8Lokhu kutsho ukuthi, kakusibo abantwana benyama, bona bangabantwana bakaNkulunkulu; kodwa abantwana besithembiso bathiwa yinzalo.

9Ngoba ilizwi lesithembiso yileli elokuthi: Ngalesisikhathi ngizafika, njalo uSara uzakuba lendodana.

10Kakusikho lokhu kuphela, kodwa loRebeka esekhulelwe ngomunye, ubaba wethu uIsaka;

11ngoba abantwanabengakazalwa, bengakenzi okuhle loba okubi,

12kwatshiwo kuye ukuthi: Omkhulu uzakhonza omncinyane,

13njengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: UJakobe ngamthanda.

14Pho-ke sizakuthini? Kukhona ukungalungi kuNkulunkulu yini!

15Ngoba uthi kuMozisi: Ngizakuba lomusa kwengilomusa kuye, njalo ngimhawukele engimhawukelayo.

16Ngakho ka ku sikho kothandayo, njalo ka ku sikho kogijimayo, kodwa ngo kukaNkulunkulu olesihawu.

17Ngoba umbhalo uthi kuFaro: Ngakuphakamisela khona lokho, ukuze ngibonakalise amandla ami ngawe, njalo ukuze ibizo lami litshunyayelwe emhlabeni wonke.

18Ngakho uhawukela lowo athanda ukumhawukela; njalo amenze abe lukhuni lowo athanda ukumenza lukhuni.

19Ngakho uzakuthi kimi: Usasolelani? Ngoba ngubani ongamelana lentando yakhe?

21Kumbe umbumbi?

22Njalo uba uNkulunkulu ethanda ukubonakalisa ulaka lwakhe, lokwazisa amandla akhe, wathwala ngokubekezela okukhulu;

23njalo ukuze azise inotho yenkazimulo,

24azibizileyo lazo, esiyizothina?

25Njengalokhu akutsho lakuHoseya: Abangeyisibo abantu bami ngizababiza ngokuthingabantu bami; lowayengathandwa ngokuthingothandekayo;

26njalo kuzakuthi, endaweni lapho okwathiwa khona kibo: Kalisibo abantu bami.

27LoIsaya umemeza ngoIsrayeli esithi: Lanxa inani labantwana bakoIsrayeli lingangetshebetshebe lolwandle;

28ngoba uzaqeda isenzo a si qume ngokulunga; ngoba iNkosi izakwenza isenzo siqunywe ngokuphangisa emhlabeni.

29Njalo njengoba uIsaya watsho ngaphambili ukuthi: Uba iNkosi yamabandla ibingasitshiyelanga inzalo.

30Pho sizakuthini? Ukuthi abezizwe;

31kodwa uIsrayeli, edingisisa umlayo wokulunga.

32Ngani? Ngoba kaba dingisis anga ngokholo, kodwa ngokungathi ngemisebenzi yomlayo; ngoba bakhubeka,

33njengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: Khangela ngibeka eSiyoni.
