Incwadi Yengoma Yeengoma 7:1-13
7 “Qala bona zihle kangangani iinyawo zakho ngemapatlagwanenakho,Ndodakazi ehloniphekileko!
Iinyonga zakho zinjengezinto zokuzikghabisa,Ezenziwe zizandla zesisebenzi esinekghono.
2 Ikabakho injengekomitji.
Kwangathi ingahlala inewayini elivangiweko.
Amathumbakho aliqubi lekoroyi,Elibhodwe mathuthumbo wommango.
3 AmabelakhoAnjengamaphahla weqina.+
4 Intamakho+ injengombhotjhongo wezinyo lendlovu.+
Amehlwakho+ anjengeenziba eRhetjhibhoni,+Ngesangweni leBhathi-Rabhimu.
Ipumulwakho injengombhotjhongo weLibhanoni,Oqale ngeDamaseku.
5 Ihlokwakho injengeKarameli,+Begodu iinhluthu zakho+ zinjengewulu esipiridzana.+
Ikosi ikarwe ziinhluthu zakho ezihle ezide.
6 Qala bona umuhle begodu uthabisa kangangani,Sithandwa sami, ukudlula koke okhunye okuthabisako!
7 Umude njengomuthi wesundu,Begodu amabelakho anjengamahlukuzo wesithelo sesundu.+
8 Ngathi, ‘Ngizokukhwela emthini wesunduNgikhe isithelo sawo.’
Kwanga amabelakho angaba njengamahlukuzo wamadiribe,Nephunga lokuphefumula kwakho libe njengelama-abhula,
9 Begodu umlomakho ube njengewayini eliphuma phambili.”
“Kwangathi lingehla litjhelele emphinjeni wesithandwa sami,Ligeleze kamnandi emilonyeni yalabo abaleleko.
10 Ngingowesithandwa sami+Begodu sifuna mina kwaphela.
11 Yewize sithandwa sami,Asikhambe siye emasimini;Asihlale hlangana neentjalo ezinuka kamnandi.*+
12 Asivuke ekuseni siye emasimini wamadiribeSiyokubona ukuthi amadiribe sekatlhurhile na,Nokuthi amathuthumbo sekavulekile,+Nokuthi amarharinada sekanamathuthumbo.+Ngizokutjengisa lapho-ke indlela engikuthanda ngayo.+
13 Amakofe akhupha iphunga lawo elimnandi;Eminyangwenethu kunayo yoke imihlobo yeenthelo.
Ezitja nezidala,Ngikubekele zona sithandwa sami.
