Isahluko 2
1
Kungani ukuba abezizwe baxokozele, nabantu bazindle ngokuyize na?
2
Amakhosi omhlaba ayazihlanganisa, nababusi baceba icebo ngoJehova nangogcotshiweyo wakhe ngokuthi:
3
“Masigqabule izibopho zabo, silahle izintambo zabo, zisuke kithina.”
4
Yena ohlezi ezulwini uyahleka, iNkosi iyabadelela.
5
Ibisikhuluma kubo ngentukuthelo yayo, ibethuse ngolaka lwayo, ithi:
6
“Nokho ngibekile iNkosi yami eSiyoni, intaba yami engcwele.”
7
Ngizakulanda ngesinqumo: uJehova wathi kimi: “Uyindodana yami wena; namuhla ngikuzele.
8
Cela kimi, ngikunike abezizwe babe yifa lakho, nemikhawulo yomhlaba ibe yimfuyo yakho.
9
Uzakubaphula ngentonga yensimbi, ubaphahlaze njengesitsha sombumbi.”
10
Ngakho hlakaniphani nina makhosi; yalekani nina bahluleli bomhlaba.
11
Mkhonzeni uJehova ngokwesaba, nethabe ngokuthuthumela.
12
Yangeni indodana, ingaze ithukuthele, nibhubhe endleleni, ngokuba ulaka lwayo luyakuvutha masinyane. Babusisiwe bonke abaphephela kuyo.
