Taga 8:1-36
8 Kuhlakanipha kuyamemeta,Nekucondza kuphakamisa livi lako.+
2 Kume etindzaweni letiphakeme+ letiseceleni kwemgwaco,Kume nalapho kuhlangana khona imigwaco.
3 Eceleni kwemagede elidolobha,Nasemasangweni elidolobha,Kuhlakanipha kuchubeka kumemeta kakhulu kutsi:+
4 “Nginibita nonkhe nine bantfu;Ngimemeta bonkhe bantfu.
5 Fundzani kuhlakanipha nine lenite lwati;+Tfolani kucondza* nine tilima.
6 Lalelani ngobe loko lengikushoko kubalulekile,Umlomo wami ukhuluma lokulungile;
7 Ngobe ngikhuluma liciniso,Futsi ngiyakwenyanya kukhuluma emanga.
8 Konkhe lengikukhuluma ngemlomo wami kulungile.
Kute lokugwegwile nalokungemanga.
9 Umuntfu lonekucondza usheshe ative tonkhe tintfo lengitikhulumako,Futsi tiliciniso kubantfu labanelwati.
10 Khetsa siyalo sami kunelisiliva,Futsi ukhetse lwati kuneligolide lelicwengisisiwe,+
11 Ngobe kuhlakanipha kuncono kunematje laligugu aselwandle;*Ngeke kucatsaniswe nanome yini umuntfu langayifisa.
12 Mine, kuhlakanipha, ngihlala nekucondza;Ngilutfolile lwati kanye nelikhono lekucabanga.+
13 Kwesaba Jehova kusho kwenyanya lokubi.+
Ngiyakwenyanya kutidvumisa, kutigcabha,+ kwenta lokubi kanye nenkhulumo lembi.+
14 Teluleko tami tinhle futsi ngihlakaniphile;+Nginekucondza+ kanye nemandla.+
15 Emakhosi achubeka abusa ngenca yekusitwa ngimi,Ngisita netikhulu kuze tibeke imitsetfo lelungile.+
16 Tindvuna tichubeka tibusa ngenca yekusitwa ngimi,Ngisita nebaholi kuze behlulele ngekulunga.
17 Ngiyabatsandza labo labangitsandzako,Futsi bantfu labangifunako batangitfola.+
18 Nginjingile futsi ngineludvumo,Nginemcebo longapheli kanye nekulunga.
19 Loko lengiphana kona kuncono kuneligolide, kuncono ngisho kuneligolide lelicwengisisiwe,Loko bantfu labakutfola kimi kuncono kunelisiliva lelicwengisisiwe.+
20 Ngihamba ngetindlela tekulunga,Ngihamba ekhatsi etindleleni tekwehlulela ngekulunga;
21 Labo labangitsandzako ngibapha umcebo longapheli,Futsi ngigcwalisa netincolobane tabo.
22 Jehova wangidala ngaba wekucala emisebentini yakhe,+Ngaba wekucala ngca etintfweni latidala endvulo.+
23 Kusukela kadzeni besengivele ngidaliwe,+Kusukela ekucaleni, nemhlaba usengakadalwa.+
24 Ngadalwa kusete ngisho nekujula kwetilwandle,+Kusete netiyalu letigeleta emanti.
25 Ngaphambi kwekutsi tintsaba tibe khona,Nangaphambi kwekutsi kube nemagcuma, mine bese ngidaliwe,
26 Asengakadali ngisho nemhlaba kanye netiganga tawo,Futsi kusengakabi khona ngisho nemagadze.
27 Besengikhona ngesikhatsi enta emazulu+Ngesikhatsi abeka umncele* etikwemanti,+
28 Ngesikhatsi adala emafu etulu,Nangesikhatsi enta kutsi tindzawo letinemanti lamanyenti tigcwale,
29 Ngesikhatsi abekela lwandle iminceleKuze emanti angeceli ngale kwelivi lakhe,+Nangesikhatsi amisa tisekelo temhlaba,
30 Mine bengisebenta eceleni kwakhe, ngiyingcweti yekwakha.+
Bekajabula kakhulu ngami+ malanga onkhe;Futsi ngaso sonkhe sikhatsi bengijabula embikwakhe;+
31 Ngajabula ngemhlaba wakhe lebewutawuhlala bantfu,Futsi bengibatsandza kakhulu bantfu.
32 Ngako-ke ngilaleleni madvodzana ami;Ngobe bayajabula labo labahamba ngetindlela tami.
33 Nibolalela naniyalwa+ kuze nihlakaniphe,Futsi ningacali nisikhohlwe siyalo.
34 Uyajabula umuntfu longilalelako.
Malanga onkhe ufika lokwa ekuseni eminyango yami,Afike eme eceleni kwetinsika teminyango yami.
35 Umuntfu longitfolako utawutfola kuphila,+Futsi utawemukelwa nguJehova.
36 Kodvwa umuntfu longanginaki utilimata yena,Futsi labo labangenyanyako batsandza kufa.”+
