2. “Mna *ndinguNdikhoyo uThixo wakho owakukhulula eJiputa apho wawulikhoboka khona.
3. “Ungaze unqule *thixo wumbi ngaphandle kwam.
4. “Ungaze uziqingqele umfanekiso wothixo, nditsho nokuba ngowantoni na esesibhakabhakeni phezulu, okanye esemhlabeni phantsi, okanye nokuba yeyasemanzini aphantsi komhlaba.
