AMahubo 37:1-11

Ungakhathazeki ngababi, ungabi namona ngabenza okungalungile, ngokuba bazosishulwa masinyane njengotshani, babune njengemifino. Thembela kuSimakade, wenze okuhle, ukuze uhlale ezweni, uzondle ngokukholeka; zithokozise ngoSimakade, khona ezokunika okufiswa yinhliziyo yakho. Nikela indlela yakho kuSimakade; umethembe, Yena uzokwenzela okufisayo. Ukulunga kwakho kukhanye njengelanga; nobulungiswa njengemini. Thula phambi kukaSimakade, umlindele ngesineke; ungakhathazeki ngonempumelelo endleleni yakhe, ngomuntu oceba amacebo amabi. Deda entukuthelweni, uyeke ulaka, ungakhathazeki, lokho kuholela ebubini nje. Ngokuba ababi bayobhujiswa, kodwa labo abalindela uSimakade ngesineke, bayodla ifa lomhlaba. Kusazothatha isikhashana engabe esababikho omubi, uyothi lapho uhlola indawo abe kuyo, ungamfumani. Kepha abathobekileyo bazokudla ifa lezwe, bathokozele ukuthula okukhulu.
