16 Kwathi ekupheleni kweentsuku ezisixhenxe, kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi,
17 Nyana womntu, ndikwenzé umboniseli kwindlu kaSirayeli; live ke ilizwi emlonyeni wam, ubavuselele ngokuvela kum.
18 Xa ndithi kongendawo, Inene, ùya kufa; usuke wena ungamvuseleli, ungathethi ukuze umvuselele ongendawo, ukuze aphume endleleni yakhe engendawo, aphile; wófa ongendawo lowo ngobugwenxa bakhe, kodwa lona igazi lakhe ndolibiza esandleni sakho.
19 Wena ke, xa uthe wamvuselela ongendawo, akabuya endleleni yakhe, endleleni yakhe engendawo: wófa ngobugwenxa bakhe, kodwa wena uwuhlangule umphefumlo wakho.
20 Ke, lakubuya ebulungiseni balo ilungisa, lenze ngobugqwetha, ndibeke isikhubekiso phambi kwalo; lofa lona; xa uthe akwalivuselela, lofa ngenxa yesono salo, bungàkhunjulwa ubulungisa balo elabenzayo; kodwa lona igazi lalo ndolibiza esandleni sakho.
21 Wena ke, xa uthe walivuselela ilungisa, ukuba lingoni ilungisa, àlona ke: lophila ngokuba livuselelwe, ke wena uwuhlangule umphefumlo wakho.
22 Sabakho apho isandla sikaYehova phezu kwam, wathi kum, Suk' ume, phuma uye entilini, ndithethe nawe khona.
