Taga 2:1-22
2 Ndvodzana yami, nangabe wemukela emavi ami,Nemitsetfo yami uyente ibe ligugu kuwe,+
2 Futsi wente indlebe yakho ilalelisise tintfo letihlakaniphile+Wente nenhlitiyo yakho ibe nekucondza;+
3 Ngetulu kwaloko, nangabe utawumemeta ucelelwati,+Umemete kuze utfole kucondza;+
4 Futsi nangabe uchubeka ukufuna kube shengatsi ufuna lisiliva,+Uchubeke ukumba kube shengatsi umba emagugu lafihliwe;+
5 Utawubese uyacondza kutsi kusho kutsini kwesaba Jehova,+Futsi utawuba nelwati ngaNkulunkulu.+
6 Ngobe nguJehova lophana kuhlakanipha;+Emlonyeni wakhe kuphuma emavi lenta bantfu kutsi babe nelwati nekucondza.
7 Bantfu labalungile ubabekela kuhlakanipha;Futsi usihlangu salabo labacotfo.+
8 Ugadza tindlela talabalungile,Futsi utawugadza indlela yebantfu bakhe labetsembekile.+
9 Ngako wena utawubese uyacondza kutsi yini lelungile, lekahle nalemsulwa,Utawati nekutsi nguyiphi indlela lekahle lokufanele uhambe ngayo.+
10 Kutawutsi lapho kuhlakanipha kungena enhlitiyweni yakho+Nelwati lujabulisa umphefumulo* wakho,+
11 Kusebentisa kahle ingcondvo kutakulondza,+Kucondza kutakugadza,
12 Kuze kukusite ungahambi endleleni lembi,Ungahambi nebantfu labakhuluma tintfo letingakalungi,+
13 Kukuvikele kulabo labashiya tindlela letilungileFutsi bahambe ngetindlela tebumnyama,+
14 Kukuvikele kulabo labajabulela kwenta lokubi,Labo labajatjuliswa kwenta tintfo letimbi naletingcolile,
15 Kukuvikele kulabo labahamba ngetindlela letingakacondziNakulabo labaphila imphilo yebucili.
16 Kutakuvikela kumfati lokhohlakele,*Kukuvikele emavini lashelelako emfati lotiphatsa kabi,*+
17 Lokungumfati loshiye indvodza* yakhe lashada nayo asemusha+Futsi wakhohlwa nesivumelwane lasenta naNkulunkulu wakhe;
18 Ngobe kuya endlini yakhe kufana nekutimikisa ekufeni,Nemgwaco loya endlini yakhe uholela ethuneni.+
19 Bonkhe labatiphatsa kabi naye bahamba bangabuyi,Futsi ngeke baphindze bayitfole indlela leya ekuphileni.+
20 Ngako-ke hamba ngendlela yalabalungileFutsi ungesuki etindleleni talabenta lokuhle,+
21 Ngobe ngulabacotfo bodvwa labatawuhlala emhlabeni,Futsi ngulabamsulwa labatawusala kuwo.+
22 Kodvwa lababi batawucedvwa emhlabeni,+Futsi labangaketsembeki batawubhujiswa.+
