NgokukaMathewu 6:7-15

Kodwa nxa nikhuleka, ningathemelezi njengabezizwe, ngokuba bathi bayakuzwiwa ngokukhuluma kwabo okuningi. Ngakho-ke maningafani nabo; ngokuba uYihlo uyakwazi enikuswelayo ningakaceli kuye. Ngakho-ke anokhuleka kanje, nithi:

“ ‘Baba wethu osezulwini,
malingcweliswe igama lakho;
mawufike umbuso wakho;
mayenziwe intando yakho emhlabeni njengasezulwini;
usiphe namuhla isinkwa sethu
semihla ngemihla;
usithethelele amacala ethu,
njengalokhu nathi sibathethelela
abanecala kithi;
ungasingenisi ekulingweni,
kodwa usikhulule kokubi;
ngokuba umbuso ungowakho,
namandla, nenkazimulo,
kuze kube phakade. Amen.’

“Ngokuba uma nithethelela abantu iziphambeko zabo, noYihlo wasezulwini uyakunithethelela nani. Kepha uma ningathetheleli abantu iziphambeko zabo, noYihlo akayikunithethelela iziphambeko zenu.
