Bongani uSimakade, nibize igama lakhe,

Mhlabeleleleni, nimhubele,
nikhulume ngazo zonke izimangaliso zakhe.
Dumisani igama lakhe elingcwele,
mazithokoze izinhliziyo zabafuna uSimakade.
Mfuneni uSimakade namandla akhe,
nifunisise ubuso bakhe njalonjalo.
Khumbulani izimangaliso zakhe azenzileyo,
nezibonakaliso zakhe,
nezehlulelo zomlomo wakhe,
nina bozalo luka-Abhrahama, inceku yakhe,
nina bantwana bakaJakobe, abakhethiweyo bakhe.
Yena unguSimakade uNkulunkulu wethu,
izehlulelo zakhe zisemhlabeni wonke.
Kuyoze kube phakade
esikhumbula isivumelwano sakhe,
izwi ayala ngalo izizukulwane ngezizukulwane,
avumelana ngaso no-Abhrahama,
nesifungo asenza ku-Isaka,

Wathi:
“Ngizokunika iKhanani,
libe yisabelo sefa lakho.”
Ngaleso sikhathi babeyingcosana ngenani,
yebo, babeseyingcosana,
futhi babengabafokazi kulo.
Bazulazula ezizweni ngezizwe,
besuka kulo mbuso,
beya kwabanye abantu.
Akavumelanga muntu ukubahlupha,
wajezisa amakhosi ngenxa yabo,
ethi:
“Ningabathinti abagcotshiweyo bami,
ningabalimazi abaphrofethi bami.”
Lapho ethumela indlala ezweni,
kwavaleka umthombo wokudla.
Wathumela indoda, yabendulela,
uJosefa owathengiswa waba yisigqila,
balimaza izinyawo zakhe ngamaketanga,
waboshwa ngensimbi.
Kwaze kwaba yisikhathi
elagcwaliseka ngaso izwi lakhe,
izwi likaSimakade lamhola.
Inkosi yathumela, yamkhulula,
umbusi wabantu wamdedela.
