iMizekeliso 8:22-36

uYehova wandenza ndaba yintlahlela yendlela yakhe, Ndaba ngowamandulo emisebenzini yakhe yakudala. Mna ndasekwa kususela kumaxesha amandulo, kwasephakadeni, Kwasemaphakadeni elimiweyo. Ndazalwa kungekabikho bunzulu; kungekho maqula azele ngamanzi. Iintaba azikasekwa, neenduli zingekaveli; Akenzanga hlabathi, namasimi, Nothuli lomhlaba. Ekulilungiseni kwakhe izulu, ndandikho apho; Ekuwatywineni kwakhe amafu phezulu, Ekutywineni kwakhe amaqula oonogumbe behlabathi. uEnere waluwisela umthetho ulwandle, ukuba amanzi angawexuki umthetho wakhe, Ekuzimiseni kwakhe iziseko zehlabathi. Ke kaloku ndandinaye, njengokungathi omnye esondlwe naye; Vuyani ngenxa yesahlulo sehlabathi; noyolo lwam lwalukoonyana babantu. Bantwana bam, ndiveni kaloku, ngokuba hayi, uyolo lwabazigcinayo iindlela zam! Yivani uqeqesho, nibe nobulumko, ningalushiyi. Hayi, uyolo lomntu ondivayo, Ozigcinayo iingcango zam imihla yonke, Elondoloza iingcango zeminyango yam; Ngokuba ondifumeneyo mna ufumene ubomi, nenceba evela kuYehova. Ke yena ondingcatshayo utshabalalisa umphefumlo wakhe; bonke abandithiyileyo bathanda ukufa.
