Ukukhanya kwezibane ezisesiphathweni kwathi tyaba emaplangeni alekwe ngegolide, emacaleni omnquba, naphezu kwempahla engcwele naphezu kwamalenga-lenga angamabala-bala amahle aneekerubi ezizotywe ngemisonto yegolide nesilivere, inkangeleko ke leyo eyayi bukeka ngokungenakulinganiswa. Akukho ntetho ingachaza ubuhle nokubukeka nobuqaqauli obungcwele obabonakala kulamagumbhi.

Akukho liso lenyama ingelilo elo lombingeleli omkhulu lalinokukhangela kobubuhle bungcwele belogumbhi, kuba lali yindawo eyodwa yokuhlala kobuqaqauli obubonakalayo bukaThixo. Umbingeleli omkhulu wangena maxa onke egubha, logama abantu bakulindela ngokuzola okundilekileyo ukuphuma kwakhe. Ulangazelelo lweminqweno yabo lwalu kuThixo ukuba abanike intsikelelo yakhe. Phambhi kwesihlalo sokucamagusha uYehova wathetha nombingeleli omkhulu. Ukuba uhleli ixesha elingaqhelekanga kwingcwele kangcwele, babekholisa ngokoyika abantu, besoyikela ukuba ngenxa yezoono zabo okanye isoono esithile sombingeleli, ubuqaqauli bukaThixo bumbulele. Kodwa kwakuba kuvakala ukukhenkceza kweentsimbhi ezisezingubeni zakhe, zathi qabu izibilini. Waphuma ke wabasikelela abantu.IL 138.2
