U-Isaya 9:2-6

Abantu abahamba ebumnyameni babone ukukhanya okukhulu; abahlala ezweni lethunzi lokufa, ukukhanya kubakhanyisele. Wandisa isizwe, awukhulisanga intokozo; Ngokuba wephulile ijoka lomthwalo wabo nodondolo lwamahlombe abo, nozime lomcindezeli wabo, njengasosukwini lukaMidiyani. Ngokuba konke ukulwa kweqhawe kunomsindo ophithizelayo, nezingubo ezigingqelwe egazini; kodwa kuyakuba ngumlilo nezinkuni zomlilo. Ngokuba sizalelwe umntwana, siphiwe indodana, nombuso uyakuba sehlombe lakhe, negama lakhe liyakuthiwa oMangalisayo, uMluleki, uNkulunkulu onamandla, uYise ongunaphakade, iNkosi yokuthula.
