1 Waphendula uBhiledadi wakwaShuwa, wathi,
2 Kunini na nikuzingela ukuthetha?Qondani, sothetha emveni koku.
3 Yini na ukuba kuthiwe sinjengeenkomo,Sibe ziinqambi emehlweni akho?
4 Wena uziqwengayo ngomsindo wakho,Liya kushiywa ihlabathi ngenxa yakho, lingamiwa na?Likhwelèle iliwa endaweni yalo?
5 Noko nokukhanya oku kongendawo kuya kucinywa,Lingabi mhlophe ilangatye lomlilo wakhe.
6 Ukukhanya kuya kwenziwa mnyama ententeni yakhe,Nesibane sakhe sicinywe phezu kwakhe.
7 Ukunyantsula kwakhe kuya kuxinwa,Limphose phantsi kwaelakhe iqhinga.
