Umshumayeli 12:1-5

Mhla abalindi bendlu bethuthumela, bakhothama abanamandla, nabasilayo beyeka, ngokuba bayingcosana, nababuka ngamafasitele babe mnyama; Iminyango iyakuvalwa emigwaqweni, lapho umsindo wokugedla uphansi, avuke ngezwi lenyoni, athotshiswe onke amadodakazi okuhlabelela; Futhi lapho besaba abaphezulu, futhi ukwesaba kuyoba endleleni, futhi um-alimondi uyoqhakaza, nesikhonyane siyakuba ngumthwalo, futhi ukufisa kuyaphela; ngokuba umuntu uya endlini yakhe ende, nabalilayo bahamba ezitaladini
