¹ Nganikwa umhlanga onjengodondolo, ingelosi yema, yathi: “Sukuma, ulinganise ithempeli likaNkulunkulu, ne-altare, nabakhuleka kulo.

² Kepha igceke elingaphandle kwethempeli ulishiye ngaphandle, ungalilinganisi; ngokuba linikiwe abezizwe, nomuzi ongcwele bayakuwunyathela phansi izinyanga ezingamashumi amane nambili.

³ Ngizanika ofakazi bami ababili amandla, njalo bazaphrofetha insuku eziyinkulungwane lamakhulu amabili lamatshumi ayisithupha bembethe isaka.

⁴ Laba bayiminqumo emibili nezinti zezibani ezimbili ezimi phambi kukaNkulunkulu womhlaba.

⁵ Uma kukhona ofuna ukuwonakalisa, kuphuma umlilo emlonyeni wawo, uqede izitha zawo;

⁶ Laba banamandla okuvala izulu ukuze lingani ngezinsuku zokuprofetha kwabo, futhi banamandla phezu kwamanzi okuwaphendula abe yigazi, futhi ashaye umhlaba ngazo zonke izinhlupho, noma nini ngokuthanda kwabo.

⁷ Kuyakuthi sebebuqedile ubufakazi babo, isilo esiphuma kwalasha siyakulwa nabo, sibanqobe, sibabulale.

⁸ Izidumbu zabo zizakuba semgwaqweni womuzi omkhulu othiwa ngokomoya iSodoma leGibhithe, lapho leNkosi yethu yabethelwa khona.

⁹ Abantu nemindeni nezilimi nezizwe bayakuzibona izidumbu zabo izinsuku ezintathu nenxenye, bangavumeli izidumbu zabo zibekwe emathuneni.

¹⁰ Nabakhileyo emhlabeni bayakujabula ngabo, bajabule, bathumele izipho omunye komunye; ngoba laba baprofethi ababili babahlupha abakhileyo emhlabeni.

¹¹ Emva kwezinsuku ezintathu nenxenye uMoya wokuphila ovela kuNkulunkulu wangena kubo, bema ngezinyawo zabo; ukwesaba okukhulu kwehlela labo abababonayo.

¹² Bezwa izwi elikhulu livela ezulwini, lithi kubo: “Yenyukelani lapha.” Benyukela ezulwini ngefu; nezitha zabo zababona.

¹³ Ngaleso sikhathi kwaba khona ukuzamazama komhlaba okukhulu, nengxenye yeshumi yomuzi yawa, kwabulawa ukuzamazama komhlaba abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa;

¹⁴ Umaye wesibili usedlulile; bheka, umaye wesithathu uyeza masinyane.

¹⁵ Ingelosi yesikhombisa yayisibetha; kwase kuba khona amazwi amakhulu ezulwini, athi: Imibuso yalelizwe isibe imibuso yeNkosi yethu, lekaKristu wayo; futhi iyakubusa kuze kube phakade naphakade.

¹⁶ Amalunga angamashumi amabili nane ahlezi phambi kukaNkulunkulu ezihlalweni zawo zobukhosi, awa ngobuso, akhuleka kuNkulunkulu;

¹⁷ besithi: Siyakubonga, Nkosi Nkulunkulu Somandla, okhona, owayekhona, lozayo; ngoba uzithathele amandla akho amakhulu, wabusa.

¹⁸ Izizwe zathukuthela, kwasekufika ulaka lwakho, lesikhathi sabafileyo esokwahlulelwa, lokuthi unike umvuzo inceku zakho abaprofethi, labangcwele, lalabo abesaba ibizo lakho, abancinyane. Futhi mkhulu; futhi kufanele abhubhise labo ababhubhisa umhlaba.

¹⁹ Kwavulwa ithempeli likaNkulunkulu ezulwini, kwabonakala umphongolo wesivumelwano sakhe ethempelini lakhe, kwaba khona imibani, namazwi, nokuduma, nokuzamazama komhlaba, nesichotho esikhulu.
