1. Ndayibona iNkosi imi ngasesibingelelweni. Yathi, Zibethe iinqanam, inyikime imigubasi yomnyango, uziqobe ezo zinto, ziwe entlokweni yabo bonke bephela, ndibabulale abokugqibela babo ngekrele. Osabayo kubo akasayi kusinda, angasindi nokuzisindisa kubo.
2. Ukuba bathe bagqobhozela elabafileyo, sóbathabatha nakhona isandla sam; nokuba bathe benyuka baya ezulwini, ndobahlisa nakhona.
3. Nokuba bathe bazímela encotsheni yeKarmele, ndofuna, ndibathabathe nalapho; nokuba bathe bazisithelisa phambi kwamehlo am emazantsi olwandle, ndoyiwisela umthetho nalapho inyoka, ibalume.
4. Nokuba bathe bathinjwa phambi kweentshaba zabo, ndoliwisela umthetho nalapho ikrele, libabulale, ndiwamise kubo amehlo am, ukuba kube kubi, kungalungi.
