IGenesis 16: 1- 12, 15- 16

16:1 Ngoku uSarayi, umka-Abram, akazange akhawule abantwana. Kodwa, waye enomkhonzazana ongumYiputa, ogama linguHagare,

16:2 watsho endodeni yakhe: “Khangela!, INkosi indivalile, hleze ndibeleke. Ngena kumkhonzazana wam, ukuze mhlawumbi ndamkele kuye oonyana bakhe. Kwaye xa wavumayo emthandazweni wakhe,

16:3 wamthabatha uHagare umYiputa, umkhonzazana wakhe, iminyaka elishumi emveni kokuhlala kwabo ezweni lakwaKanan, wamnika indoda yakhe ukuba ibe ngumfazi.

16:4 Wangena ke kuye. Uthe ke akubona ukuba umithi, Wayidela inkosikazi yakhe.

16:5 Wathi uSarayi kuAbram: Undenzé ngobugqwetha;. Ndimnike umkhonzazana wam esifubeni sakho, I-WHO, akubona ukuba umithi, wandijongela phantsi. Ngamana uYehova angagweba phakathi kwam nawe.

16:6 UAbram wamphendula wathi, “Khangela!, umkhonzazana wakho usesandleni sakho ukuba enze ngokokuthanda kwakho. Kwaye, xa uSarayi emcinezele, wabhabha.

16:7 Kwaye xa isithunywa seNkosi samfumana, kufuphi nomthombo wamanzi entlango, esendleleni eya eShure entlango,

16:8 Wathi kuye: “Hagare, umkhonzazana kaSarayi, uvela phi? Kwaye uza kuya phi?” Waphendula yena, “Ndiyasaba ebusweni bukaSarayi, unkosikazi wam.”

16:9 Sathi kuye isithunywa sikaYehova, Buyela kwinkosikazi yakho;, uzithobe phantsi kwesandla sakhe.

16:10 Waphinda wathi, Ndiya kuyandisa rhoqo imbewu yakho, kwaye abayi kubalwa ngenxa yobuninzi babo.

16:11 Kodwa emva koko wathi: “Khangela!, ukhawule, uya kuzala unyana. Uze umthiye igama elinguIshmayeli, ngokuba uYehova uzivile iintsizi zakho.

16:12 Uya kuba yindoda yasendle. Isandla sakhe siya kubachasa bonke, kwaye zonke izandla ziya kuba nxamnye naye. Yaye uya kuzigxumeka iintente zakhe kude nommandla wabazalwana bakhe bonke.

16:15 UHagare wamzalela uAbram unyana, owamthiya igama elinguIshmayeli.

16:16 UAbram ubeminyaka imashumi asibhozo anamithandathu ezelwe, oko uHagare wamzalela uIshmayeli.

The Holy Gospel According Matthew 7: 21-29

7:21	Not all who say to me, ‘Nkosi, Nkosi,’ will enter into the kingdom of heaven. But whoever does the will of my Father, who is in heaven, the same shall enter into the kingdom of heaven.
7:22	Many will say to me in that day, ‘Nkosi, Nkosi, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and perform many powerful deeds in your name?'
7:23	And then will I disclose to them: ‘I have never known you. mka kum, you workers of iniquity.’
7:24	Ngoko ke, everyone who hears these words of mine and does them shall be compared to a wise man, who built his house upon the rock.
7:25	And the rains descended, and the floods rose up, and the winds blew, and rushed upon that house, but it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
7:26	And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them shall be like a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand.
7:27	And the rains descended, and the floods rose up, and the winds blew, and rushed upon that house, and it did fall, and great was its ruin.”
7:28	Kwaye kwenzeka, akuba uYesu ebewagqibile la mazwi, that the crowds were astonished at his doctrine.
7:29	For he was teaching them as one who has authority, and not like their scribes and Pharisees.
