Umkhumbi wokuWela uLwandle
Ukulungiselela ukuya ezweni lesethembiso.
Inala kwakuwumhlaba owawugcwele izithelo noju. Kwakuyindawo enhle yokuphila. Umndeni kaLehi noSariya wawuhlala ngasolwandle futhi unayo yonke into owawuyidinga.
Emva kwezinsuku eziningi, iNkosi yatshela uNefi ukuba aye entabeni ayokhuleka. Lapho, yamtshela ukuba akhe umkhumbi ozothwala umndeni wakhe uwuwelise ulwandle.
INkosi yamubonisa ukuthi umkhumbi wakhiwa kanjani. Kepha uNefi wayengazi lapho angayithola khona insimbi yokwenza amathuluzi. INkosi yakhombisa uNephi lapho ayengabheka khona insimbi.
Sekudlule isikhathi, uNefi wakha umlilo wokwenza amathuluzi. ULamani noLamuweli bamubukela umfowabo uNefi. Babengafuni ukumsiza akhe umkhumbi. Babengacabangi ukuthi umqondo omuhle ukuzama ukunqamula uLwandle.
ULamani noLamuweli babengakholwa ukuthi iNkosi yatshela uNefi ukuba akakhe umkhumbi. UNefi wababuza ukuba kungani babengakakholelwa eNkosini. Wabakhumbuza ukuthi babona ingelosi futhi babewazi amandla eNkosi. ULamani noLamuweli bathukuthela ngalendlela yokuthi babefuna ukubulala uNefi.
Kepha uNefi wayegcwele amandla kaNkulunkulu. UNefi waxwayisa uLamani noLamuweli ukuba bangamuthinti. Babesaba futhi abazange balinge bamuthinte uNefi ezinsukwini eziningi. Bese-ke iNkosi yatshela uNefi ukuba alule isandla sakhe kubafowabo. Ngenkathi uNefi elula isandla sakhe kubona, bazamazamiswa amandla eNkosi.
ULamani noLamuweli bakhonza iNkosi futhi basiza ukwakha umkhumbi. UNefi wakhuleka izikhathi eziningi eNkosini efuna usizo. Umkhumbi owakhiwa ngumndeni kaNefi wawumuhle. Emva kwezinsuku eziningi, umkhumbi wawuphelile, futhi babona ukuthi muhle. Umndeni kaNefi wawazi ukuthi iNkosi yayibasizile.
