6 Kwathi ngamhla uthile, oonyana bakaThixo beza kuzimisa phambi koYehova, weza noSathana* phakathi kwabo.
7 Wathi uYehova kuSathana, Uvela phi na? USathana wamphendula uYehova, wathi, Ekutyhutyha-tyhutyheni ehlabathini, nasekuhamba-hambeni kulo.
8 Wathi uYehova kuSathana, Ùmgqalile na kodwa umkhonzi wam uYobhi: ukuba akukho unjengaye ehlabathini, indoda egqibeleleyo, ethe tye, emoyikayo uThixo, etyekayo ebubini?
9 USathana wamphendula uYehova, wathi, UYobhi lo úfumana emoyikela ilizé na uThixo?
10 Akuthanga na wena wambiyela wamjikeleza, wayijikeleza indlu yakhe; wayijikeleza into yonke anayo ngeenxa zonke; wawusikelela umsebenzi wezandla zakhe, imfuyo yakhe yaligqiba ilizwe?
11 Kodwa ke khawuse isandla sakho ngoku, uchukumise into yonke anayo, ukuba akayi kukulahla na nawe lo, akwenze oko ebusweni bakho.
12 Wathi uYehova kuSathana, Yabona, konke anako kusesandleni sakho; ke kuye ngokwakhe musa ukusa sandla sakho. Waphuma ke uSathana, wemka ebusweni bukaYehova.
