“Vuka, Jerusalema, ukhanye njengelilanga, ngobe kukhanya kwakho kufikile. Inkhatimulo yaSimakadze iphumela etikwakho.

Tive tiyawusondzela ekukhanyeni kwakho nemakhosi ete ebukhatikhatini bekusa kwakho.

Buka la, bumnyama buyawusibekela umhlaba, nebumnyama lobumatima busetikwetive, kodvwa Simakadze uyaphuma etikwakho, nenkhatimulo yakhe ibonakala etikwakho.

Lomncane wenu uyawuba yinkhulungwane, lophansi kakhulu abe sive lesinemandla. NginguSimakadze, ngesikhatsi sako ngiyawukwenta loko ngekushesha lokukhulu.”

Lilanga aliseyikuba kukhanya kwakho emini, ngisho nekukhanya kwenyeti kungeke kusakukhanyisela wena, ngobe Simakadze uyawuba kukhanya kwakho kwaphakadze, Nkulunkulu wakho abe ludvumo lwakho.

Lilanga lakho alisayiwuphindza lishone, nenyanga yakho ayisayiwuphindza ifiphale. Simakadze uyawuba kukhanya kwaphakadze kuwe, emalanga akho ekudzabuka ayawuphela.

Utawube sewuyabuka umoyitele, inhlitiyo yakho iyawugcumagcuma, inetsetele ngenca yekujabula. Imicebo leselwandle iyawuletfwa kuwe, bunjinga betive buyawuta kuwe.

“Phakamisa emehlo akho, ucalate ubone: Bahlangane bonkhe bete kuwe, emadvodzana akho aphuma khashane, emadvodzakati akho wona etfwelwe ngemkhono.

Lapho-ke bonkhe bantfu bakho bayawuba ngulabalungile, bayawuba banikati belive kokuphela. Bangimiliba lengiyihlanyele, umsebenti wetandla tami, wekubonakalisa inkhatimulo yami.

Akuseyiwuba nekulwa eveni lakho, kuyawubate incitsakalo nembhubhiso emikhawulweni yelive lakho. Kodvwa uyawubita tibondza takho ngekutsi yiNsindziso, nemasango akho ngekutsi Ludvumo.

Emasango akho ayawuhlala avulekile, ngeke aze avalwe, busuku nemini, kuze emadvodza aniletsele lemicebo yetive, emakhosi ato achutjwe atiboshwa.

Imihlambi yemakamela iyawugcwala eveni lakho, emakamela lamancane akaMidiyani newase-Efa. Bonkhe baseSheba bayawuta, betfwele igolide nemphepho, bamemetela ludvumo lwaSimakadze.

“Betive bayawutivusa tibondza takho, emakhosi abo ayawuhlehla kuwe. Noko ngakushaya ngenca yekutfukutsela, ngebubele bami ngiyawukuhawukela.

“Noko uke walahlwa, watondvwa, kungekho muntfu lowendlula kuwe, ngiyawukwenta ligcabho laphakadze, nenjabulo yato tonkhe titukulwane.

Uyawunatsa lubisi lwetive, umunyiswe emabeleni ebukhosi. Uyawube sewuyati-ke kutsi mine, Simakadze, nginguMsindzisi wakho, nekutsi Somandla wakaJakobe unguMhlengi wakho.
