29 ¹Waphinda uYobhi wathetha wathi: ²“Akwaba bendinjengasezinyangeni ezidluleyo, njengakwimihla uThixo awayendigcina ngayo, ³xa isibane sakhe sasikhanyisa phezu kwentloko yam, ndihamba ebumnyameni ngokukhanya kwakhe; ⁴njengoko bendinjalo kwemihla yobudlakela bam, xa ubuhlobo obusondeleyo bukaThixo babuphezu kwentente yam, ^a a v4 UYobhi uyabulangazelela ubusondelelane awakha wabazi — ubuhlobo obusondeleyo bukaThixo phezu kwekhaya lakhe. Akakazi ukuba uThixo amkhumbulayo nguBawo ontliziyo yakhe ingazange imshiye; nokuba uya kuzibonela ngokwakhe le ncwadi ingekapheli. ⁵xa uSomandla wayesenam, xa abantwana bam babendijikelezile; ⁶xa iinyawo zam zazihlanjwa ngamasi, neliwa landithululela imijelo yeoli. ⁷Xa ndandiphuma ndisiya esangweni lomzi, ndihlala kwindawo yesidlangalala, ⁸amadodana andibona asuka ashenxa, amadoda amakhulu esuka ema; ⁹abathetheli bawanqanda amazwi abo, babeka isandla emlonyeni wabo; ¹⁰lathi cwaka izwi labanumzana, zanamathela ulwimi lwabo kweqabaka lomlomo wabo. ¹¹Yakundiva indlebe, yathi ndinoyolo, lakundibona iliso, langqina ngam, ¹²ngenxa yokuba ndandihlangula ihlwempu elalikhala, nenkedama engenamntu wokuyinceda. ¹³Intsikelelo yalowo wayeza kutshabalala yafika phezu kwam, ndayenza intliziyo yomhlolokazi yavuma ngemihlali. ¹⁴Ndazambathisa ubulungisa, baza bandambathisa; isigwebo sam sasinjengengubo nonkontsho. ¹⁵Ndandingamehlo kwimfama, neenyawo kwisiqhwala. ¹⁶Ndandinguyise weziswele, isimangalo salowo ndandingamazi ndisiphanda. ¹⁷Ndazaphula iimpondo zabangendawo, ndaxhwila okuqwengiweyo emazinyweni akhe. ¹⁸Ndaza ndathi, ‘Ndiya kufela endlwini yam, ndiyandise imihla yam njengentlabathi.’ ¹⁹Iingcambu zam zazisolulela emanzini, umbethe ulala ubusuku bonke phezu kwamasebe am. ²⁰Uzuko lwam lwaluhlala lusentsha ngaphakathi kum, nesaphetha sam sasisoloko sisitsha esandleni sam. ²¹Amadoda andiphulaphula alinda; athi cwaka elindele icebo lam. ²²Emva kokuba ndithethile, ayengaphinde athethe; amazwi am ehla ngokuthambileyo phezu kwawo. ²³Andilindela njengoko kulindelwa imvula, avula imilomo yawo njengoko kulindelwa imvula yentwasahlobo. ²⁴Xa ndandiwancumela, ayephantse angakukholelwa oko, abambelela kukukhanya kobuso bam. ²⁵Ndandiyikhetha indlela yawo, ndihlale njengentloko yawo; ndandihlala njengokumkani phakathi komkhosi wakhe, njengalowo uthuthuzela abazilayo.”
