1 Izwi likaJehova lafika kimi, lathi:
2 “Wena ndodana yomuntu uyakuwahlulela, uyakuwahlulela umuzi wegazi na? Uyakuwazisa-ke zonke izinengiso zawo,
3 uthi: ‘Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Wena muzi ochitha igazi phakathi kwakho, ukuze isikhathi sakho sifike, nowenza izithombe kuwe ukuzingcolisa,
4 ngegazi olichithileyo unecala, nangezithombe zakho ozenzileyo ungcolile; usondezile izinsuku zakho, ufikile eminyakeni yakho; ngalokho ngikwenzile ihlazo ezizweni nenhlekiso emazweni onke.
5 Abaseduze nabakude nawe bayakukuhleka wena onegama elingcolileyo, ogcwele isiphithiphithi.
