1 Masoyike ngoko, hleze kuthi ekubeni kusasele idinga lokungena ekuphumleni kwakhe, kubekho bani kuni ungathi asilele.2 Kuba sizishunyayeziwe iindaba ezilungileyo kwanjengabo; lathi kodwa ilizwi lodaba, lingadibananga nje nokholo kwabo balivayo, alabanceda nto.3 Kuba thina sakholwayo, siyangena ekuphumleni, ngokoko athe, Njengoko ndafungayo, ndinengqumbo, Ndathi, Unakanye ukuba bokha bangene ekuphumleni kwam! nakubeni imisebenzi yenziwayo kususela ekusekweni kwehlabathi.4 Kuba wakha wathetha ngawo umhla wesixhenxe, ukuthi, Waza waphumla uThixo ngawo umhla wesixhenxe kuyo yonke imisebenzi yakhe;5 athi kule kananjalo, Unakanye ukuba bokha bangene ekuphumleni kwam.6 Ekubeni ngoko kusalindele ke ukuthi kubekho bathile bangenayo kuko, baye abo, bashunyayezwayo iindaba ezilungileyo kuqala, bengangenanga ngenxa yokungeva:7 ubuya amise mini ithile, esithi ngoDavide, Namhlanje, emveni kwexesha elingakanana; njengokuba kuthiwe, Namhla, ukuba nithe naliva ilizwi lakhe, Musani ukuzenza lukhuni iintliziyo zenu.8 Kuba uYoshuwa, ukuba ubebaphumzile, ange engabuyanga athethe ngawo omnye umhla.9 Ngoko ke abantu bakaThixo balindwe luphumlo olunjengolwesabatha.10 Kuba lowo ungeneyo ekuphumleni kwakhe, naye ngokwakhe uphumle kuyo imisebenzi yakhe, njengoThixo kweyeyakhe.

11 Masikhuthalele ngoko ukungena koko kuphumla, ukuze kungabikho namnye ubuya eyele kwakuloo mzekelo wokungeva.12 Kuba ilizwi likaThixo liphilile, lisebenza, libukhali ngaphezu kwamakrele onke antlangothi mbini; lihlaba liphumele, lide lahlule umphefumlo kwanomoya, amalungu kwanomongo; linokugweba iingcingane nezicamango zentliziyo.13 Kanjalo akukho sidalwa singabonakaliyo emehlweni akhe; izinto zonke ke zize, zityhilekile, emehlweni alowo esinokuthana ni naye.14 Ngoko, sinombingeleli omkhulu nje ocande emazulwini, UYesu ke, uNyana kaThixo, masilubambe uvumo lwethu.15 Kuba asinambingeleli mkhulu ungenako ukuvelana nezilwelwe zethu; ke, sinowahendwayo ngeento zonke, ngokokufana nathi, engenasono.16 Masisondlele ke ngoko sinokungafihlisi kuyo itrone yobabalo, ukuze samkeliswe inceba, sifumane ubabalo lokusiza ngexesha elililo.
