Siya kukhalima kube sinye kuphela, ukuthethisa ngamandla achaseneyo. …Masinikezele ngobuncinane obahlukileyo ukuze sifumane imbuyekezo eyona nto ibalulekileyo, oko kukuthi, ngamxhelo mnye.

Wenjenjalo uThixo, noMoses, owathi kuThixo: “Baxolele isono sabo, ukuba akunjalo, uze undicime encwadini yakho” ( Eks. 32, 32 ). Waza wayalela amaSirayeli ukuba abulalane, angawacongi amawabo.

Indalo, incwadi. 17 Kyiv, 1903, iphe. 383.
Abadala abangcwele basixelela ngemeko enjalo. Enye imonki yavela eSkete ityelela ootata bayo, ababehlala kwindawo ebizwa ngokuba ziiSeli, apho iimonki ezininzi zazihlala kwizisele ezahlukeneyo. Ekubeni ngelo xesha kwakungekho sisele sasimahla awayenokuhlala kuso, omnye wabadala, owayenesinye isisele, esasingahlali mntu, wasinika olo ndwendwe. Abazalwana abaninzi baqala ukumtyelela lo mhambi, kuba wayebabalwe ngokomoya ukufundisa ilizwi likaThixo. Ixhego elalimnike isisele lakubona oku laza latyiwa ngumona. Wacaphuka waza wathi: “Kudala ndihlala kule ndawo, kodwa abazalwana abezi kum, ngaphandle nje kweqaqobana, nasemva koko ngeeholide, kodwa abazalwana abaninzi beza kule ndoda intle kangaka phantse yonke imihla.” Wandula ke wayalela umfundi wakhe esithi: “Hamba uye kumxelela ukuba aphume kwesi sisele, kuba ndiyayifuna.” Wafika umfundi lowo, wathi kuye, UBawo undithume endlwini yakho engcwele; uvile ukuba uyasifa.

Undihoye kakhulu! Ngemithandazo yenu, ndiziva ndibhetele.” Umfundi, ekubuyeni kwakhe, wathi kumdala wakhe: “Kwaye ngoku ucela indawo yakho engcwele ukuba ilinde kude kube yiCawe; aze amke kwaoko. Yafika iCawe wabe umzuli ezolile wahlala esiseleni sakhe. Umdala, evutha ngumona nomsindo, wabamba umsimelelo waza waya kubetha umzuli ngaphandle kwesisele. Akukubona oku, umfundi lowo waya kwindoda enkulu waza wathi kuyo: “Ukuba uyandithethela, ndohamba ndikhangele ukuba abazalwana bafikile na kuye, onokuthi akukubona akhubeke.” Akuba efumene imvume, lo mfundi wahamba phambili waza, engene kuloo mhambi, wathi kuye: “Yabona, ubawo uyeza kuwe; Khawulezani ukudibana naye nize nimbulele, kuba ukwenza oku ngenxa yokulunga okukhulu kwentliziyo nothando ngani.” Ngoko nangoko umtyibilizi waphakama waza, evuya, waya kumkhawulela.

Wanga uKrestu iNkosi anilungiselele kwiYerusalem yasezulwini, phakathi kwabangcwele bakhe, indawo yokuhlala enobungangamsha eqaqambileyo! Umdala, ekuva oku, wachukunyiswa yintliziyo yakhe waza, wayiphosa intonga, wakhawuleza waya kwiingalo zomhambi. Baphuzana eNkosini, kwaye umdala wamemela undwendwe kwisisele sakhe ukuba badle ukutya kunye nokubulela kuThixo. Bengasese, lo mdala wabuza umfundi oku: “Ndixelele, nyana wam, ngaba uye wawaxelela umzalwana wakho la mazwi ndiwawisele umthetho wokuba awadlulisele kuye?” Wandula ke lo mfundi wavuma wathi: “Ndiya kukuxelela, nkosi, inyaniso, ngenxa yokuzinikela kwam kuwe, bawo, nawe nkosi, andibanga nabuganga bakumxelela oko ubundiwisele umthetho ngako, andithethanga nokuba libe linye ilizwi lakho.

Emthanda umdala wakhe ngothando olugqibeleleyo ngoKristu, wayesoyika kakhulu ukuba uyise wokomoya, ekhukuliswe ngumona nomsindo, angawela esonweni esasiya kutshabalalisa yonke imigudu yakhe, eyayithatyathelwe kuye kwasebutsheni bakhe ebutsheni bakhe. inkonzo kaKristu ngenxa yoBomi obunguNaphakade.
