UmShumayeli 5
Okufanele ukwenze nokungafanele ukwenze ekuphileni
1Qaphela unyawo lwakho lapho uya endlini kaNkulunkulu, futhi uthande ukuzwa kunokunikela ngomhlatshelo weziwula; ngoba kabacabangi ukuthi benza okubi.
2Ungasheshi ngomlomo wakho, futhi inhliziyo yakho mayingasheshi ukukhuluma phambi kukaNkulunkulu, ngokuba uNkulunkulu usezulwini, wena usemhlabeni; ngakho-ke amazwi akho kufanele abe mancane.
3Ngokuba iphupho liza ngobuningi bezindaba; izwi lesiwula laziwa ngamazwi amaningi.
4Nxa wenza isithembiso kuNkulunkulu, ungalibali ukusigcwalisa; ngoba akathokozi ngeziwula; khokha lokho okuthembisile.
5Kungcono ukuthi ungathembisi, kulokuthi uthembise kodwa ungakhokhi.
6Ungavumeli umlomo wakho ukuthi wonise inyama yakho; futhi ungasho phambi kwengelosi ukuthi bekuyiphutha. Kungani uNkulunkulu ethukuthelela izwi lakho futhi achithe umsebenzi wezandla zakho na?
7Ngokuba lapho kukhona amaphupho amaningi namazwi amaningi kukhona okuyize okuyizinhlobonhlobo; kodwa yesaba uNkulunkulu.
8Uma ubona ukucindezelwa kompofu nokuhlanekezelwa komthetho nokulunga ezweni, ungamangali ngaleyo ndaba, ngokuba ophakeme kunomkhulu kunaye, kukhona ophakeme kunabo.
9Inzuzo yomhlaba ngeyabo bonke; inkosi ikhonza emasimini.
10Othanda isiliva akayikusutha ngemali; nothanda inala akanenzuzo; nalokhu kuyize.
11Lapho kwanda okuhle, bayanda abakudlayo;
12Ubuthongo besisebenzi bumnandi, noma sidla okuncane noma okuningi; kodwa inala yesicebi ayisoze imenze alale.
13Kukhona ububi obukhulu engibubonile phansi kwelanga, ingcebo egcinelwe abaniniyo kube kubi kubo.
14Kodwa leyo ngcebo ibhubha ngomsebenzi omubi, futhi izala indodana, kungekho lutho esandleni sayo.
15Ekuphumeni kwakhe esizalweni sikanina uyakubuya ahambe ze njengokufika kwakhe, angathathi lutho emshikashikeni wakhe angayiphatha ngesandla sakhe.
16Futhi futhi kungububi obukhulu, ukuthi uzohamba ngazo zonke izindlela njengoba eze; unanzuzoni yena owashikashikela umoya na?
17Futhi zonke izinsuku zakhe udla ebumnyameni, futhi unosizi kanye nentukuthelo enkulu ngenxa yokugula kwakhe.
18Bheka, engakubonayo: kuhle, kumnandi kumuntu ukuba adle, aphuze, athokozele okuhle kuwo wonke umshikashika wakhe awenzayo phansi kwelanga zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakhe uNkulunkulu amnika zona; ngoba kuyisabelo sakhe.
19Futhi wonke umuntu uNkulunkulu amnike ingcebo futhi wamnika amandla okukudla futhi adle kuwo futhi ajabule emsebenzini wakhe; kuyisipho sikaNkulunkulu.
20Ngokuba akayikucabanga kakhulu ngezinsuku zokuphila kwakhe; ngoba uNkulunkulu uyamphendula ngentokozo yenhliziyo yakhe.
