1 KaPhethro 1:18-21

Nina niyazi ukuthi nahlengwa ezintweni ezingasho lutho zokhokho benu, hhayi ngezinto eziphelayo njengesiliva noma igolide, kodwa nahlengwa ngegazi likaKhristu elinqabileyo, kungathi elewundlu elingenacala nasici. Wakhethwa umhlaba ungakasekelwa, kodwa wabonakaliswa ngezikhathi zokugcina ngenxa yenu, okungaye nikholwa kuNkulunkulu, Yena owamvusa kwabafileyo, wamnika inkazimulo, ukuze ukukholwa kwenu nethemba lenu kube kuNkulunkulu.
