Ukuphumla kwabantu bakaThixo
7Kungoko ke noMoya oyiNgcwele atshoyo ukuthi:
“Nakuliva ilizwi lakhe namhlanje,
8sanukuba neenkani njengakwimihla yesidube-dube entlango apho namlingayo uThixo.
9‘Apho bandivavanyayo bandilinga ooyihlo,’ utsho uThixo,
‘nakuba yaba ngamashumi amane eminyaka beyibona imisebenzi yam.
10Nantso into eyandicaphukisayo kweso sizukulwana, ndaza ndathi:
Basoloko besona;
abaziqondi iindlela zam.
11Futhi ndada ndafunga ndinomsindo, ndathi:
Abasoze bangene ekuphumleni kwam.’ ”
12Niyabona ke, mawethu, lumkani kungabikho bani kuni ukhohlakeleyo, ungakholwayo, ongumkreqi kuThixo ophilayo. 13Kambe ke, ngoku kusathiwa “namhlanje,” khuthazanani yonke imihla, ukuze kungabikho mntu uqaqadekiswa ngumtsalane wesono. 14Kaloku nathi sinobudlelane noKrestu, xa sinamathele kwada kwasekupheleni kwisivumo sethu.
15*IziBhalo xa zisithi:
“Nakuliva ilizwi lakhe namhlanje,
sanukuba neenkani njengakwimihla yesidube-dube,”
16zibhekisa kubani? Ngoobani abo bevayo kodwa bagwilika? Kaloku ngabo babephuma eJiputa bekhokelwa nguMosis. 17Ingoobani abo bamcaphukisayo iminyaka engamashumi amane uThixo? Ngokuqinisekileyo ngabo bonayo, abazidumbu zathi waca entlango. 18Ngoobani abo wabafungelayo uThixo esithi abasoze bangene ekuphumleni kwakhe? Wayexela abo bamvukeláyo. 19Siyabona ke ukuba ababanga nako ukungena kuba bengakholwa.
