Umshumayeli

10 Njengobe nje imphungane lefile yenta emafutsa emuntfu lowenta emakha onakale futsi anuke kabi, kanjalo-ke nebulima lobuncane benta umuntfu alahlekelwe kuhlakanipha nekuhlonishwa.+

2 Inhlitiyo yemuntfu lohlakaniphile imholela endleleni lengiyo,* kodvwa inhlitiyo yesilima isiholela endleleni lengasiyo.*+ 3 Nobe ngukuphi lapho silima siya khona sihlale singenangcondvo,+ futsi sikhombisa wonkhe umuntfu kutsi sona sisilima.+

4 Nangabe umholi akutfukutselele kakhulu, ungasheshi uhambe,+ ngobe umoya lophansi uvimba tono letinyenti.+

5 Kunentfo lekhatsatanako lengiyibonile lamhlabeni, lokuliphutsa lelentiwa ngulabo labasemagunyeni:+ 6 Batsatsa tilima batibeke etikhundleni letisetulu, kodvwa labo labafanelwe nguletikhundla* bachubeka basetikhundleni letiphansi.

7 Ngibone tisebenti tigibele emahhashi kodvwa tindvuna tihamba ngetinyawo kuhle kwetisebenti.+

8 Loyo logubha umgodzi kungenteka agcumkele kuwo;+ naloyo lobhidlita lubondza lolwakhiwe ngematje kungenteka alunywe yinyoka.

9 Loyo logubha ematje kungenteka alinyatwe ngiwo, naloyo lokabha tingodvo kungenteka alinyatwe ngito.*

10 Nangabe lithulusi lensimbi lingakhaliphi, futsi umuntfu angaliloli, kutawudzingeka afake emandla nakalisebentisa. Kodvwa kuhlakanipha kwenta umuntfu aphumelele.

11 Nangabe inyoka iluma umuntfu asengakawenti umlingo wakhe, kuba nelikhono lekwenta imilingo* akumsiti ngalutfo.

12 Emavi emuntfu lohlakaniphile amnandzi,+ kodvwa umlomo wesilima usiletsela inhlekelele.+ 13 Silima sitsi nje nasivula umlomo sikhulume emavi labulima,+ nemavi lesiwasho ekugcineni angumsangano futsi aholela enhlekeleleni. 14 Nanobe kunjalo, silima asiyekeli kukhuluma.+

Umuntfu akati kutsi kutakwentekani, futsi ngubani longamtjela kutsi kutakwentekani nasekafile?+

15 Silima sidzinwa kakhulu ngenca yekutikhandla kwaso, ngobe asati nekutsi sitayibona njani indlela leya edolobheni.

16 Maye kubuhlungu nangabe live libuswa yinkhosi lesengumfana+ futsi netindvuna takhona tiba nemadzili lokwa ekuseni! 17 Liyajabula live lelibuswa yinkhosi letelwe emndenini lohloniphekile futsi lelinetindvuna letidla tiphindze tinatse ngesikhatsi lesikahle tentele kutfola emandla, hhayi kudzakwa.+

18 Nangabe umuntfu avilapha kakhulu luphahla lwakhe luyawa, futsi nangabe agoca tandla luphahla lwakhe luyavuta.+

19 Kudla kwenta umuntfu ahleke, neliwayini lenta kuphila kube mnandzi,+ kodvwa imali iyimphendvulo yato tonkhe tidzingo temuntfu.+

20 Ungayicalekisi* inkhosi+ ngisho nasengcondvweni yakho* futsi ungakhulumi kabi ngebantfu labanjingile ngisho nobe usekamelweni lakho, ngobe kungenteka inyoni ikutfutse loko lokushito nobe kungenteka inyoni lencane ihambe iyobika loko lokushito.
