1 Kodwa khathesi, nanku akutshoyo uThixo uthi,
2 Lapho udabula phakathi kwamanzi
3 Ngoba mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wakho,
4 Njengoba wena uligugu njalo udumile ebusweni bami,
5 Ungesabi, ngoba ngilawe;
6 Ngizakutsho kuyo inyakatho ngithi, ‘Bakhulule!’
7 wonke umuntu obizwa ngebizo lami,
8 Phumani lalabo abayiziphofu amehlo belawo,
9 Izizwe zonke kaziqoqane ndawonye
10 UThixo uthi, “Lina lingofakazi bami,
11 Mina, mina uqobo, nginguThixo,
12 Ngivezile ngasindisa, ngamemezela, mina ngokwami,
13 “Ye, kusukela ensukwini zasendulo nginguye.
14 Lokhu yikho okutshiwo nguThixo,
15 Mina nginguThixo, oNgcwele wenu,
16 Nanku akutshoyo uThixo,
17 yena owakhupha izinqola zempi lamabhiza,
18 “Khohlwani izinto zamandulo,
19 Khangelani, ngenza okutsha!
20 Izinyamazana zeganga ziyangidumisa;
21 abantu engazenzela bona
22 Kodwa kawukhalazanga kimi wena Jakhobe,
23 Kawungilethelanga izimvu zomnikelo wokutshiswa,
24 Kawungithengelanga amakha ekhane anuka mnandi,
25 Mina, mina uqobo, nginguye owesula
26 Ngikhumbuza ngesikhathi esedlulayo,
27 Ukhokho wakho wokuqala wona;
28 Ngakho izikhulu zethempelini lakho ngizaziyangisa;
