Luka 17: 26-37

17:26 Futhi njengoba nje kwenzeka ezinsukwini zikaNowa, kuyakuba njalo nasemihleni yeNdodana yomuntu.

17:27 Babedla bephuza; babethatha abafazi futhi bendiswa, kwaze kwafika usuku uNowa angena ngalo emkhunjini. Kwafika uzamcolo, wababhubhisa bonke.

17:28 Kuyoba njengalokho okwenzeka ezinsukwini zikaLoti. Babedla bephuza; babethenga bethengisa; babetshala futhi bakha.

17:29 Khona-ke, ngosuku uLoti aphuma ngalo eSodoma, lana umlilo nesibabule kuvela ezulwini, yababhubhisa bonke.

17:30 Ngokwalezi zinto, kuyakuba njalo ngosuku eyakwambulwa ngalo iNdodana yomuntu.

17:31 Ngalelo hora, noma ngubani ozoba phezu kophahla, nezimpahla zakhe endlini, kangehli ukuzithatha. Futhi noma ngubani ozoba sensimini, ngokufanayo, makangabuyeli emuva.

17:32 Khumbula umkaLoti.

17:33 Noma ubani obefuna ukusindisa ukuphila kwakhe, izolahlekelwa yiyo; futhi noma ubani olahlekelwe yikho, uzoyibuyisela ekuphileni.

17:34 ngithi kini, ngalobo busuku, bazakuba ababili embhedeni munye. Omunye uzothathwa, kanti omunye uzosala.

17:35 Ababili bayoba etsheni lokugaya ndawonye. Omunye uzothathwa, kanti omunye uzosala. Ababili bazobe besensimini. Omunye uzothathwa, omunye asale.

17:36 Ephendula, bathi kuye, “Kuphi, Nkosi?”

17:37 Wathi kubo, “Lapho umzimba uzoba khona, nakuleyo ndawo, amanqe ayakubuthelwa ndawonye.”
