KumaHeberu 1

¹ UNkulunkulu owakhuluma endulo kokhokho ngabaprofethi ngamathuba amaningi nangezindlela eziningi.

² Ekugcineni kwalezinsuku ukhulumile kithi ngeNdodana ayimise ibe yindlalifa yakho konke, futhi enza ngayo futhi izwe;

³ Owathi engukukhanya kwenkazimulo yakhe, lomfanekiso wobuntu bakhe, ephakamisa zonke izinto ngelizwi lamandla akhe, esehlambulule izono zethu, wahlala phansi ngakwesokunene soMkhulu kweliphezulu;

⁴ enziwe waba ngcono kakhulu kunezingelosi, njengalokho ezuze ngefa igama elihle kakhulu kunelazo.

⁵ Ngoba yiyiphi yezingilosi ake atsho kuyo ukuthi: Wena uyiNdodana yami, lamuhla mina ngikuzele? Futhi futhi: Mina ngiyoba uYise kuyo, futhi uyoba yiNdodana kimi?

⁶ Futhi lapho eseletha olizibulo emhlabeni, uthi: Nezingelosi zonke zikaNkulunkulu mazikhuleke kuye.

⁷ Nangezingelosi uthi: “Owenza izingelosi zakhe zibe yimimoya, nezikhonzi zakhe amalangabi omlilo.

⁸ Kodwa eNdodaneni uthi: Isihlalo sakho sobukhosi, Nkulunkulu, singesaphakade laphakade, intonga yokulunga intonga yombuso wakho.

⁹ Ukuthandile ukulunga, wazonda ububi; ngalokho uNkulunkulu, yebo, uNkulunkulu wakho, ukugcobile ngamafutha enjabulo ngaphezu kwabangane bakho.

¹⁰ Futhi: Wena, Nkosi, ekuqaleni wabeka isisekelo somhlaba; nezulu liyimisebenzi yezandla zakho;

¹¹ Ziyakubhubha; kodwa wena uhlala; futhi zonke ziyoguga njengengubo;

¹² Futhi njengesambatho uyakuzisonga, futhi ziyakuguqulwa; kepha wena unjalo, neminyaka yakho ayiyikuphela.

¹³ Kodwa yiyiphi yezingilosi ake atsho kuyo ukuthi: Hlala ngakwesokunene sami, ngize ngenze izitha zakho zibe yisenabelo senyawo zakho?

¹⁴ Azisibo yini zonke omoya abakhonzayo, abathunyelwe ukukhonza ngenxa yalabo abayakuba yizindlalifa zensindiso na?
