8 ¹Abumemezi na ubulumko, ingqondo iliphakamise izwi layo? ²Encotsheni yenduli ngasendleleni, apho zidibana khona iindlela, bumi khona. ³Ngasesangweni, ekungeneni komzi, ezingcangweni buyadanduluka buthi: ⁴“Ndimemeza kuni, nonke bantu; izwi lam lifikelela kubo bonke abantu. ⁵Nina bazizidenge, funani ukuqonda; nina baziziyatha, zuzani intliziyo evayo. ⁶Phulaphulani, kuba ndithetha izinto ezinqabileyo, nako konke endikuthethayo kuthe tye. ⁷Umlomo wam uvakalisa inyaniso, kuba imilebe yomlomo wam inezothe kokungendawo. ⁸Onke amazwi omlomo wam angobulungisa; akukho nalinye kuwo ligwenxa nokuba lijibilizayo. ⁹Kulowo uqondayo acacile onke, athe tye kwabo bafumana ukwazi. ¹⁰Thabathani imfundiso yam endaweni yesilivere, nokwazi endaweni yegolide enyuliweyo, ¹¹kuba ubulumko bulungile kunekorale; akukho nto uyinqwenelayo enokulinganiswa nabo.

¹²Mna, ndibubulumko, ndihlala nokuqonda, ndaye ndifumane ukwazi nomnkqangiyelo. ^a a v12 Ubulumko obuthethayo apha buzaliseka ngoYesu, lowo uPawulos ambiza ngokuba bubulumko bukaThixo — 1 Korinte 1:24, 30. ¹³Ukoyika uBawo wethu kukuthiya ububi. Ndiyakuthiya ukukhukhumala nenkqayaba, nendlela engendawo, nentetho eligwenxa. ¹⁴Icebo lelam, nobulumko obuluqilima; ndiyingqondo mna; amandla ngawam. ¹⁵Ngam ookumkani bayalawula, nabalawuli bawisa okusesikweni; ¹⁶ngam izidwangube ziyalawula, nabanumzana—bonke abalawula ngobulungisa. ¹⁷Ndiyabathanda abandithandayo, nabo bandifunayo bayandifumana. ¹⁸Bubutyebi nozuko obunam, ubutyebi obunyamezelayo nobulungisa. ¹⁹Isiqhamo sam silungile ngaphezu kwegolide, nangaphezu kwegolide ecoliweyo, oko ndikuvelisayo kugqitha isilivere enyuliweyo. ²⁰Ndihamba ngendlela yobulungisa, emendweni wokusesikweni, ²¹ndinike ubutyebi babe lilifa kwabo bandithandayo, ndizizalise iindawo zabo zobuncwane.

²²UBawo wethu wandivelisa ekuqalekeni kwendlela yakhe, ngaphambi kwemisebenzi yakhe yamandulo. ^b b v22 Ubulumko — uNyana — buvelisiwe, abenziwanga; buphuma kuBawo wethu kususela kwanaphakade, buyabelana ngobomi bakhe ngaphambi kokuba kudalwe nantoni na. ²³Kususela kumaphakade adlulileyo ndasekwa, kwasekuqalekeni, ingekaqaliswa ihlabathi. ²⁴Ngexa kwakungekho manzi anzongonzongo, ndavelswa, ngexa kwakungekho mithombo iphuphume amanzi. ²⁵Zingekazinziswa iintaba, zingabikho iinduli, ndavelswa, ²⁶lisekwenziwe ihlabathi namasimi alo, nothuli lokuqala lwehlabathi. ²⁷Akuwamisa amazulu, ndandilapho; akuzoba isazinge phezu kobuso benzonzobila, ²⁸akumisa isibhakabhaka phezulu, akuzinzisa imithombo yenzonzobila, ²⁹akumisela ulwandle umda walo ukuze amanzi angagqithi emideni yawo, akuwubeka umgca weziseko zehlabathi, ³⁰ngelo xesha ke ndandisecaleni lakhe njengengcibi eyingcali, ndaye ndiluyolo lwakhe lwemihla ngemihla, ndivuya phambi kwakhe ngamaxesha onke, ^c c v30 Ezinye iinguqulelo zamandulo zithi ‘umntwana omncinane’ apha endaweni ‘yengcibi eyingcali,’ zifanisa ubulumko nomntwana ovuya ngasecaleni likaBawo. ³¹ndivuyela ihlabathi lakhe lonke, ndiyolela usapho loluntu.

³²Ngoku ke, bantwana bam, ndiphulaphuleni: banoyolo abo bagcine iindlela zam. ³³Phulaphulani umyalelo nibe nobulumko; ningawudeli. ³⁴Unoyolo lowo undiphulaphulayo, olinda imihla ngemihla emasangweni am, elinde ngasemnyango wam. ³⁵Kuba lowo undifumanayo ufumana ubomi, azuze nobabalo kuBawo wethu. ³⁶Kodwa lowo ungandifumaniyo wenzakalisa owakhe umphefumlo; bonke abandithiyileyo bathanda ukufa.”
