7 Ukuba ninyamezela uqeqesho, uThixo woba uniphethe njengoonyana; kuba nguwuphi na unyana ongàqeqeshwayo nguyise?
8 Ukuba ke aniqeqeshwa, abathe baba ngamadlelane ngalo bonke, noba nina niyimigqakhwe ngoko, aningoonyana.
9 Kananjalo sibe sinabo oobawo benyama okunene besiqeqesha, sabahlonela; asiyi kuthi ngakumbi na sithobele uYise woomoya bonke, sidle ubomi?
10 Kuba bona okunene basiqeqesha imihla embalwa, ngokokuzithandela kwabo, kodwa yena usiqeqeshela okusilungeleyo, ukuze sahlulelane ngobungcwele bakhe.
11 Lonke ke uqeqesho okunene ngokwakalokunje alubonakali luluvuyo, lubonakala luyintlungu; kodwa kamva lubanika isiqhamo esiluxolo, oko kukuthi sobulungisa, abo baqhelisiweyo lulo.
12 Kungoko endithi, Zimiseni izandla eziwileyo, namadolo anedumbe;
13 iinyawo zenu nizenzele imizila ethe tye, ukuze into eqhwalelayo ingaphambuki endleleni, kanye ke iphiliswe.
