Owesifazane Nodrago
1 Kwabonakala isibonakaliso esikhulu ezulwini: owesifazane embethe ilanga, nenyanga iphansi kwezinyawo zakhe, ekhanda lakhe ethwele umqhele wezinkanyezi ezili-12. 2 Wayekhulelwe, wakhala ngenxa yemihelo, esikwa, enobuhlungu bokubeletha. 3 Kwabonakala futhi esinye isibonakaliso ezulwini; nango udrago omkhulu, obomvu, onamakhanda ayisikhombisa nezimpondo ezilishumi. Emakhanda akhe wayenemiqhele eyisikhombisa. 4 Umsila wakhe wadonsa okwesithathu kwezinkanyezi zezulu, waziphonsa emhlabeni. Udrago wayemi ngaphambi kowesifazane owayezobeletha, ukuze kuthi uma esebelethile, amshwabadele umntwana wakhe. 5 Wabeletha umntwana wesilisa ozokwelusa izizwe zonke ngentonga yensimbi. Umntwana wahlwithwa kuye wayiswa kuNkulunkulu nasesihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi. 6 Owesifazane wabalekela ehlane, lapho enendawo ayeyilungiselelwe nguNkulunkulu, ukuba anakekelwe izinsuku eziyi-1 260.
UMikhayeli Ulwa Nodrago
7 Kwase kuba khona ukulwa ezulwini; uMikhayeli nezingelosi zakhe balwa nodrago. Udrago walwa ekanye nezingelosi zakhe, 8kodwa abazange babe namandla okunqoba, nendawo yabo yaphela ezulwini. 9 Udrago omkhulu, inyoka endala okuthiwa nguMhlebi noSathane, odukisa umhlaba wonke; waphonswa phansi emhlabeni nezingelosi zakhe ezazinaye.
10 Ngase ngizwa izwi elikhulu livela ezulwini lithi: “Manje isifikile insindiso, namandla, nobukhosi bukaNkulunkulu wethu, negunya likaKhristu wakhe, ngokuba usephonswe phansi ummangaleli wabazalwane bethu, obamangalela phambi kukaNkulunkulu imini nobusuku. 11 Bamnqobile ngegazi leWundlu nangezwi lobufakazi babo, ngokuba abathandanga ukuphila kwabo kwaze kwaba sekufeni. 12 Ngakho-ke jabulani nina mazulu nalabo abahlala kuwo. Maye, kuwe mhlaba, nakuwe lulwandle, ngokuba uSathane wehlele kini enolaka olukhulu, azi kahle ukuthi isikhathi sifushane!”
13Kuthe udrago esebona ukuthi uphonswe phansi emhlabeni, wazingela owesifazane owayezale umntwana wesilisa. 14 Owesifazane wayesenikwa amaphiko amabili okhozi olukhulu ukuba andizele ehlane endaweni yakhe, lapho enakekelwa khona isikhathi nezikhathi, nengxenye yesikhathi, engekho ebusweni benyoka. 15 Inyoka yamkhwifa imlandela owesifazane, kwaphuma emlonyeni wayo amanzi kungathi ngumfula ukuze immukise nalowo mfula. 16Umhlaba wamsiza owesifazane, wavula umlomo wawo, wawugwinya umfula owawukhwifwa wudrago ngomlomo wakhe. 17 Udrago wamthukuthelela owesifazane, wahamba wayokulwa nabaseleyo benzalo yakhe, labo abagcina imiyalo kaNkulunkulu nabanobufakazi bukaJesu. 18Wayesema esihlabathini solwandle.
