7 Ngakho bekezelani, bazalwane, ize ifike iNkosi. Bhekani, umlimi uyalindela isithelo somhlaba esiyigugu, ebekezelela sona, size sithole imvula yokuqala neyamuva.
8 Bekezelani nani, niqinise izinhliziyo zenu, ngokuba ukufika kweNkosi kusondele.
9 Ningavungamelani, bazalwane, ukuba ningahlulelwa; bhekani, umahluleli umi ngaseminyango.
10 Bazalwane, misani abaprofethi ababekhuluma egameni leNkosi babe yisibonelo sokuhlupheka nokubekezela.
11 Bhekani, babusisiwe abakhuthazelayo; nizwile ngokukhuthazela kukaJobe, nibonile impetho yeNkosi ukuthi iNkosi inesihe esikhulu nesihawu.
12 Kepha phezu kwakho konke, bazalwane bami, ningafungi; ningafungi izulu noma umhlaba noma esinye isifungo; kodwa uyebo wenu makabe nguyebo, noqhabo uqhabo, ukuze ningaweli ekwahlulelweni.
13 Kukhona ohluphekayo phakathi kwenu na? Makakhuleke; kukhona owenamileyo na? Makahube.
