U-Isaya 43:1-5

Kepha manje usho kanje uJehova owakudalayo wena Jakobe, nowakubumba wena Israyeli, uthi: “Ungesabi ngokuba ngikuhlengile, ngikubizile ngegama lakho; ungowami. Lapho udabula emanzini, mina nginawe; nasemifuleni, ayiyikukukhukhula; lapho uhamba emlilweni, awuyikusha, nelangabi aliyikukushisa. Ngokuba nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wakho, oNgcwele ka-Israyeli, uMsindisi wakho; ngiyanika iGibithe libe yihlawulo lakho, iKushe neSheba esikhundleni sakho. Ngenxa yokuba ubuyigugu emehlweni ami, futhi ubudumile, uthandekile kimi, ngiyakunika abantu esikhundleni sakho, nezizwe esikhundleni sokuphila kwakho. Ungesabi, ngokuba nginawe; ngiyakuyiletha inzalo yakho iphume empumalanga, ngikubuthe nasentshonalanga.
