futhi engaliyekanga izwe elidala, kodwa wamsindisa uNowa umshumayeli wokulunga, eletha uzamcolo ezweni labangamesabi uNkulunkulu;
Wayilahla imizi yaseSodoma neyaseGomora, wayichitha, wayichitha, ephendula imizi yaseSodoma neyaseGomora ibe yisibonelo kwabangayikumesaba uNkulunkulu;
Wakhulula uLothi olungileyo, owayecunulwe yihambo engcolileyo yababi.
(Ngokuba lowo olungileyo ehlezi phakathi kwabo, ngokubona nangokuzwa, imihla ngemihla wawuhlupha umphefumulo wakhe olungileyo ngemisebenzi yabo engafanele;)
INkosi iyakwazi ukukhulula ezilingweni abamesabayo, nokugcinela abangalungile usuku lokwahlulelwa, bajeziswe;
Kodwa ikakhulu labo abahamba ngokwenyama enkanukweni yokungcola, bedelela ukubusa. Bayagabadela, bazicabangela bona, abesabi nokukhuluma kabi ngezithunzi;
Kodwa izingilosi, lezizinkulu ngamandla langokuqina, kazilethi icala lokuthuka phambi kweNkosi.
Kepha laba, njengezilwane ezingenangqondo, ezizalelwe ukubanjwa zibhujiswe, bahlambalaza abangaziqondiyo; futhi bayobhubha nokubhubha ekonakaleni kwabo;
njalo bayakwamukeliswa umvuzo wokungalungi, njengabathi kuyintokozo ukwenza impinda emini. Bangamabala nezisihla, bedlala ngenkohliso yabo, besidla nani;
Banamehlo agcwele ukuphinga, abangayeki esonweni; bekhohlisa imiphefumulo engazinzile: nenhliziyo efundiswe ukuhaha; izingane eziqalekisiwe:
abayishiyile indlela eqondileyo baduka belandela indlela kaBalami indodana kaBosori owathanda inkokhelo yokungalungi;
Kodwa wasolwa ngobubi bakhe: ubabhemi oyisimungulu wakhuluma ngelizwi lomuntu wenqabela ukuhlanya komprofethi.
Laba bayimithombo engenamanzi, amafu aqhutshwa yisiphepho; abagcinelwe inkungu yobumnyama kuze kube phakade.
Ngokuba bekhuluma amazwi okuyize okuyize, babayenga ngezinkanuko zenyama, ngamanyala, labo ababesesindile kulabo abahamba ngokuduka.
Bebathembisa inkululeko, bona ngokwabo bayizigqila zokubhubha;
Ngokuba uma sebebalekele ukungcola kwezwe ngokuyazi iNkosi noMsindisi uJesu Kristu, babuye bahilelwe yikho, bahlulwe, isiphetho sabo sibi kunokuqala.
Ngokuba ngabe kwaba ngcono kubo ukuba bebengayazanga indlela yokulunga kunokuba sebeyazi bafulathele umyalo ongcwele abawunikwayo.
Kodwa kubehlele kubo njengokwesaga esiqinisileyo esithi: Inja ibuyela emahlanzweni ayo; nengulube egeziweyo ekubhidlizeni odakeni.
