IZAFOBE 6:9-19

Kodwa kodwa, vilandini, koda kube nini uthe tywa kuloo mandlalo? Uya kuvuka nini kobo buthongo bakho? Ulibele kukuthi: “Hayi noko, makhe ndithi qwaka, ndithi ntlithi kancinane, khe ndisonge izandla, ndiphumle.” Kambe ke bona ubuhlwempu nâbo bukuchwechwela njengomkhuthuzi. Ewe, nantso ihambo-nzima isiza kukuhlasela oku kwendoda exhobileyo! Ke yena umntu ohamba ejikeleza ethetha ezolwimi ngungantweni wetshijolo. Ewe, onjalo ungafika emana encwina amehlo, egobhana nabanye, ekhomba ngaloo minwe yakhe. Ngalo lonke ke elo xesha uqulunqa amayelenqe entliziyweni yakhe; ewe, uyila ububi, aphembelele uqhushululu. Kuthi kunjalo ke afunyanwe yinkxwaleko ngebhaqo, atsho enzakale ngephanyazo, angabi nakunyangeka. Zintandathu izinto azithiyileyo *uNdikhoyo; gxebe, zisisixhenxe izinto ezilizothe kuye: amehlo endelelo, ulwimi oluxokayo, izandla eziphalaza igazi elimsulwa, intliziyo eceba amayelenqe, iinyawo ezikhawuleza ukuquqela ebubini, ingqina elixokayo liyigqwethe inyaniso, nomntu ophembelela ingxabano phakathi kwabazalanayo.
