UBawo wethu uyasukuma ukuba agwebe
Umhobe ka-Asafu.
UBawo wethu uyema entlanganisweni yobuThixo aze abeke ityala kumagunya agweba ngeenkundla ezingenabulungisa. Umsebenzi wawo wawungenzima: khuselani ababuthathaka, neenkedama, nabasweleyo. Baya kufa njengabantu nje, aze umhlaba ubuyiselwe kuMgwebi wawo wokwenyaniso.
82 1UBawo wethu uyema entlanganisweni yobuThixo; phakathi koothixo uwisa umgwebo. a a v1 “Oothixo” bentlanganiso yobuThixo ngabalawuli namagunya uBawo wethu awawamise phezu kweentlanga — abaphendula kuye, abangengabo abakhuphisana naye. iZibhalo zazi uThixo omnye; aba bema phantsi komgwebo wakhe.
2“Koda kube nini na nigweba ngokungalunganga, nikhetha ubuso kwabangendawo?
3“Khuselani ababuthathaka neenkedama; nilwele amalungelo ababandezelekileyo namahlwempu. 4Hlangulani ababuthathaka nabasweleyo; nibakhulule esandleni sabakhohlakeleyo. 5Abazi, abaqondi; babhadula ebumnyameni; zonke iziseko zomhlaba ziyagungqiswa. 6Ndathi: ‘Ningoothixo; nonke ningoonyana boPhezukonke.’ 7Kodwa niya kufa njengabantu nje; niya kuwa njengabo bonke abanye abalawuli.”
8Vuka, Bawo wethu, uwugwebe umhlaba, kuba zonke iintlanga zililifa lakho.
