IHubo 1:1-6
1 Uyajabula umuntu ongalandeli izeluleko zababi,Ongami endleleni yezoni,+Ongahlaliyo esihlalweni sabachothozayo.+
2 Kodwa yena uthokoziswa ngumthetho kaJehova,+Ubala umthetho kaNkulunkulu ngelizwi eliphansi* ubusuku lemini.+
3 Uzakuba njengesihlahla esihlanyelwe emifuleni yamanzi,Esithela izithelo ngesikhathi esifaneleyo,Esilamahlamvu angabuniyo.
Konke akwenzayo kuzaphumelela.+
4 Kodwa ababi bona kabanjalo,Banjengomule ophetshulwa ngumoya.
5 Ngakho bazatholakala belecala nxa besahlulelwa,+Izoni azisoze zitholakale embuthanweni wabalungileyo,+
6 Ngoba uJehova uyayazi indlela yabalungileyo,+Kodwa indlela yababi izatshabalala.+
