UAmosi 3: 1-8, 4: 11-12

UAmosi 3

3:1	Listen to the word which the Lord has spoken about you, sons of Israel, concerning the whole family that I led out of the land of Egypt, esithi:
3:2	I have known only you in such a way, out of all the families of the earth. Ngesi sizathu, I will visit upon you all your iniquities.
3:3	Will two walk together, unless they have agreed to do so?
3:4	Will a lion roar in the forest, unless he has prey? Will the lion’s young cry out from his den, unless he has taken something?
3:5	Will a bird fall into a snare on the ground, if there is no bird-catcher? Will a snare be taken away from the ground, before it has caught something?
3:6	Will the trumpet sound in a city, and the people not become frightened? Will there be disaster in a city, which the Lord has not done?
3:7	For the Lord God does not fulfill his word, unless he has revealed his secret to his servants the prophets.
3:8	The lion will roar, who will not fear? The Lord God has spoken, who will not prophesy?

4:11 I overturned you, just as God overturned Sodom and Gomorrah, and you became like an ember seized from the fire. And you did not return to me, utsho uYehova.

4:12 Ngenxa yale nto, I will do these things to you, Sirayeli . But after I have done these things to you, Sirayeli , be prepared to meet your God.

IVangeli

UMateyu 8: 23-27

8:23 And climbing into a boat, his disciples followed him.

8:24 Kwaye khangela, a great tempest occurred in the sea, so much so that the boat was covered with waves; kodwa ngokwenene, he was sleeping.

8:25 And his disciples drew near to him, and they awakened him, esithi: “Nkosi, save us, we are perishing.”

8:26 Wathi ke uYesu kubo, “Why are you afraid, O little in faith?” Then rising up, he commanded the winds, kunye nolwandle. And a great tranquility occurred.

8:27 Ngaphezu koko, the men wondered, esithi: “What kind of man is this? For even the winds and the sea obey him.”
