2 Kwathi, ekundulukeni kwabo besinga empumalanga, bafumana ithafa ezweni laseShinare; bahlala khona. Bathi abanye kwabanye, Yizani, senze izitena, sizitshise kunene.
3 Baba nezitena endaweni yamatye, nebhitumene* endaweni yodaka.
4 Bathi, Yizani, sizakhele umzi, nepoma lenqaba elincopho isemazulwini; sizenzele igama, hleze sichithakalele ehlabathini lonke.
5 UYehova wehla, eza kukhangela umzi lowo, nenqaba leyo inde, bayakhayo oonyana boluntu.
6 Wathi uYehova, Yabona, abantu banye, bantetho-nye bonke bephela; yingqalo ke le yokwenza kwabo; kaloku abayi kunqatyelwa nto bayinkqangiyeleyo ukuyenza.
7 Yizani, sihle, sidube khona apho intetho yabo, ngokokuze bangevani ngentetho.
8 UYehova wabachithachitha kwalapho ehlabathini lonke; bayeka ukuwakha loo mzi.
