1 ¹Imizekeliso kaSolomon, unyana kaDavide, ukumkani wakwaSirayeli:

²Ukwazi ubulumko nomyalelo, ukuqonda amazwi engqiqo, ³ukwamkela umyalelo wokuziphatha ngobulumko, ngobulungisa, ngokusesikweni, nangentonelelwano, ⁴ukunika ingqondo kwabazizidenge, ukwazi nomnkqangiyelo kubafana, ⁵nesilumko masive, sandise ukufunda kwaso, lowo uqondayo azuze isikhokelo, ⁶ukuqonda umzekeliso nentsonkotho, amazwi ezilumko namaqhina azo.

⁷Ukumoyika uBawo wethu kukuqaleka kokwazi; izinyabi zidela ubulumko nomyalelo.

Ilizwi loYise kuNyana wakhe

⁸Phulaphula, nyana wam, umyalelo kayihlo, ungasijiki isifundiso sikanyoko, ⁹kuba ziyisithsaba esihle entlokweni yakho, namacici emqaleni wakho.

¹⁰Nyana wam, ukuba aboni bakulukuhla, musa ukuvuma. ¹¹Ukuba bathe: “Yiza nathi, masilalele igazi, masimlalele omsulwa ngelize; ¹²njengelabafileyo masibaginye behleli, bepheleleyo, njengabehlela emhadini; ¹³sofumana impahla yonke enqabileyo, sozizalisa ngamaxhoba izindlu zethu; ¹⁴phosa iqashiso lakho phakathi kwethu; sophatha bonke ingxowa inye,” ¹⁵nyana wam, musa ukuhamba ngendlela nabo; lunqande unyawo lwakho emendweni wabo, ¹⁶kuba iinyawo zabo zigidimela ebubini, bakhawuleza ukuphalaza igazi. ¹⁷Kuba umnatha owendlaliweyo phambi kwamehlo entaka awubambi nto; ¹⁸ke bona balalela igazi labo; balalela umphefumlo wabo. ¹⁹Zinjalo iindlela zabo bonke ababawela inzuzo embi; iwuthabatha umphefumlo wabaninimnini bayo.

Ubulumko ezitratweni

²⁰Ubulumko buyamemeza esitratweni; ezinkundleni ezivulekileyo buyaliphakamisa izwi babo. ²¹Entlokweni yezitrato ezihlokomayo buyankqangaza; ekungeneni kwamasango omzi buthetha, buthi:

²²“Koda kube nini na, nina zidenge, nithanda ukuba zizidenge? Koda kube nini na abagxeki beyoliswa kukugxeka, nezinyabi zikuthiya ukwazi? ²³Ukuba nithe naphendula esohlwayweni sam, mna, uBulumko, ndowuthulula phezu kwenu umoya wam; ndonazisa amazwi am. ^a a v23 UBulumko obuthetha apha buchazwa nguPawulos njengoKrestu — ubulumko bukaBawo wethu (1 Korinte 1:24, 1:30; Kolose 1:15-17). UNyana owayenoYise phambi kokudalwa kwendalo ubizela bonke abaya kuguquka baphulaphule. ²⁴Ngenxa yokuba ndibize naza nala, ndasolula isandla sam akwabakho obekayo indlebe, ²⁵nasuka naliphulukisa lonke icebo lam, nala sonke isohlwayo sam, ²⁶nam ndohleka ekusindekeni kwenu; ndogxeka xa kunifikela unkwantyiso, ²⁷xa unkwantyiso lunifikela njengesaqhwithi, nokusindeka kwenu kufika njengomoya ovuthuzayo, xa imbandezelo nengcutheko inifikela.

²⁸Baya kwandula bakhale kum, kodwa andiyi kuphendula; baya kundifuna kakhulu, kodwa abayi kundifumana, ²⁹ngenxa yokuba bekuthiyile ukwazi, abakunyula ukumoyika uBawo wethu, ³⁰balishiya icebo lam, basidela sonke isohlwayo sam. ³¹Ngoko ke baya kudla iziqhamo zendlela yabo, bahluthe ngamacebo abo. ³²Kuba ukuphambuka kwezidenge kuya kuzibulala, nokungakhathali kweziyatha kuya kuzitshabalalisa; ³³kodwa lowo ondiphulaphulayo uya kuhlala ekholosile, onwabe, engenaloyiko lwentlekele.”
