Ngemivimbo Yakhe siphilisiwe

Kepha yazithwala izifo zethu, yabetshatha ubuhlungu bethu, kodwa thina sathi ijezisiwe, ishaywe nguNkulunkulu, ihlushiwe. Yebo, yalinyazwa ngenxa yeziphambeko zethu, yachotshozwa ngobubi bethu; isijeziso sasiphezu kwayo ukuba sibe nokuthula, nangemivimbo yayo siphilisiwe thina. Thina sonke sidukile njengezimvu; yilowo nalowo uphendukele endleleni yakhe; uJehova wehlisela phezu kwayo ububi bethu sonke. 

U-Isaya 53:4-6

U-Isaya ukhuluma ngoNkulunkulu ebeka zonke izono zethu phezu kweNdodana yakhe, iNkosi uJesu Kristu. Wathwala usizi ngezono zethu, wathwala usizi lokungabi namthetho kwethu, walinyazwa ngenxa yeziphambeko zethu futhi walinyazwa ngobubi bethu. Kodwa ngubani, futhi ngani? Washaywa, washaywa, futhi wahlushwa nguNkulunkulu, ngoba uNkulunkulu unguMahluleli. 

UNkulunkulu kuphela onganquma isijeziso esifanele sesono; futhi uNkulunkulu wanikeza leso sijeziso eNdodaneni yaKhe. Wakwenza lokho ngoba wayengekho omunye owayengathatha indawo yethu, alikho elinye iWundlu elingenabala, awukho omunye umhlatshelo ophelele. Ngakho ukuze sibe nokuthula noNkulunkulu, uJesu wakhokha inani lezono zethu. 

Ngemivimbo yakhe siphilisiwe ngokomoya. Yilowo nalowo kithi ulandele eyakhe indlela yesono, futhi iNkosi yabutha zonke izono zethu futhi yazibeka phezu kwayo. Leli iqiniso elimangalisayo likaJesu Kristu. Wazinikela Yena, Lowo ongenasono, ngenxa yezoni. Wonke umuntu wonile, futhi wonke umuntu obeka ithemba lakhe kuJesu Kristu leso sono siyakhokhelwa.
