Taga 6:1-35
6 Ndvodzana yami, nangabe uvumile kumakhelwane wakho kutsi utambhadalela sikweleti sakhe,+Nangabe wente sivumelwane nemuntfu longamati,+
2 Nangabe sewuboshwe setsembiso sakho,Futsi wabanjwa ngemavi emlomo wakho,+
3 Naku-ke lokufanele ukwente ndvodzana yami kuze utisindzise,Njengobe nje sewusesandleni samakhelwane wakho:
Hamba uye kuye, utitfobe futsi umncenge aze akuvele.+
4 Ungalali,Futsi ungawavali emehlo akho.
5 Tisindzise njengemphala nayibalekela umtingeli,Nanjengenyoni nayibalekela umcuphi wetinyoni.
6 Hamba ufundze entfutfwaneni vila ndzini;+Buka indlela leyenta ngayo tintfo kuze uhlakaniphe.
7 Nanobe ite sikhulu, nobe indvuna nobe umbusi,
8 Ilungisa kudla kwayo ehlobo,+Ibutse kudla kwayo ngesikhatsi sekuvuna.
9 Wena vila ndzini, utawulala lapho kuze kube ngunini?
Utawuvuka nini ebutfongweni?
10 Nawulala kancane futsi utsatsa sitfongwana,Nawugoca tandla takho sikhashana kuze uphumule,+
11 Buphuya butakufikela njengelisela,Nekweswela kukuhlasele njengendvodza lehlomile.+
12 Umuntfu longasilusito lwalutfo futsi lomubi uhambahamba akhuluma tintfo letikhohlakele;+
13 Ufica liso,+ adlaladlalise lunyawo lwakhe futsi akhombe ngemunwe wakhe.
14 Ngenca yekutsi unenhlitiyo lengakalungi,Uhlale akha emacebo lamabi+ futsi uyacabanisa.+
15 Kungako atawehlelwa yinhlekelele angakalindzeli;Ngesikhashana lesincane nje utawube aphahlatekile abe angeke aphindze asindze.+
16 Kunetintfo letisitfupha Jehova latitondzako;Ecinisweni tingu-7 tintfo letenyanyekako kuye:
17 Kutiphakamisa,+ kukhuluma emanga,+ kubulala bantfu labangenacala,+
18 Kwenta emacebo lamabi,+ kugijimela ekwenteni lokubi,
19 Kuhlale ufakaza emanga,*+Kanye nekucabanisa bazalwane.+
20 Ndvodzana yami, gcina umyalo wababe wakho,Futsi ungayishiyi imfundziso* yamake wakho.+
21 Kulondvolote njalo enhlitiyweni yakho;Ukubophe entsanyeni yakho.
22 Kutakuhola nawuhamba;Kukugadze nawulele;Futsi kukweluleke nasewuvukile.
23 Ngobe umyalo usibane,+Nemtsetfo ukukhanya,+Futsi kwekhutwa nekuyalwa kuyindlela yekuphila.+
24 Kutakuvikela kumfati lomubi,+Kukuvikele nasemavini lashelelako alomfati lotiphatsa kabi.*+
25 Inhlitiyo yakho ayingabuhawukeli buhle bakhe,+Futsi ungavumi kutsi akukhange ngemehlo akhe lamahle,
26 Ngobe ingwadla yenta umuntfu agcine sekasele nesinkhwa sinye nje kuphela,+Kantsi umfati losiphingi yena ukwenta ulahlekelwe kuphila kwakho.
27 Kungenteka yini umuntfu kutsi abutsisele emalahle lavutsako esifubeni sakhe, kepha timphahla takhe tingashi?+
28 Futsi kungenteka yini umuntfu ahambe emalahleni lavutsako, kodvwa tinyawo takhe tingashi?
29 Kuyafana-ke nangaloyo lolala nemfati walomunye umuntfu;Nobe ngubani lotiphatsa kabi nalomfati utawujeziswa.+
30 Bantfu abalibukeli phansi liselaLeleba ngobe lifuna kutfola kudla nalilambile.
31 Kodvwa nalibanjwa, kutawudzingeka likubuyisele sekuphindvwe kangu-7;Litawulahlekelwa ngito tonkhe tintfo letiligugu lebelinato endlini yalo.+
32 Nobe ngubani lophingako* akanangcondvo;Umuntfu lowenta loko utilimata yena.+
33 Utawuba nemanceba futsi ahlazeke,+Nelihlazo lakhe angeke lize liphele.+
34 Ngobe sikhwele senta indvodza itfukutsele kakhulu;Ayibi namusa naseyitiphindziselela.+
35 Ngeke iyitsatse ngisho nenhlawulo;Angeke ukhone nekuyibohlisa intfukutselo yayo, ngisho nobe ungayinika tipho letinyenti kangakanani.
