EkaJakobe 4:4-10

Ziphingi, anazi yini ukuthi ukuthanda izwe kungubutha kuNkulunkulu na? Ngakho lowo othanda ukuba ngumhlobo wezwe, umi eyisitha sikaNkulunkulu. Niyacabanga yini ukuthi umbhalo usho ngeze ukuthi: “Umoya awuhlalisa kithi unxanela ngokomhawu,” na? Kodwa unika umusa ngokwenezela; ngakho uthi: “UNkulunkulu umelana nabazidlayo, kepha abathobekileyo ubapha umusa.” Ngakho thobelani uNkulunkulu, kepha nimelane noSathane, khona uyakunibalekela; sondelani kuNkulunkulu, khona uyakusondela kinina. Hlanzani izandla nina zoni, nihlambulule izinhliziyo nina bonhliziyombili. Yibani lusizi, nidabuke, nikhale; ukuhleka kwenu makuphenduke ukudabuka, nokujabula kube ngukujabha. Zithobeni ebusweni beNkosi, khona iyakuniphakamisa.
