1Livi laSimakadze lefika kimi, latsi: 2“Ndvodzana yemuntfu, lukhuni lwemvini luncono ngani kunelweligala lalesinye nje sihlahla lesisehlatsini? 3Lukhuni luke lutsatfwe yini kuwo kutsi kutekwentiwa ngalo intfo lenelusito? Bayawenta yini emahhuka ngawo ekulengisa timphahla? 4Lutsi lungafakwa emlilweni njengelukhuni, nemlilo ulushise ngala nangale, luvutse ekhatsi nendzawo, luphindze lube nawo yini lomunye umsebenti? 5Nangabe belungenamsebenti walutfo lusaphelele, belutawuba lusito kancane kangakanani-ke, nase lulunyekwe ngemlilo lwasha lwaphela?
6“Ngako-ke naku lokushiwo yiNkhosi Simakadze, itsi: Njengobe nginike lukhuni lwemvini emkhatsini wetihlahla telihlatsi kutsi lubaswe emlilweni, ngiyawubaphatsa kanjalo-ke bantfu labahlala eJerusalema. 7Ngiyawubhekisa buso bami ngakubo ngimelane nabo. Nome baphumile emlilweni, noko lomlilo usetawubacedza. Ngesikhatsi ngibhekisa buso bami ngakubo ngimelana nabo, niyawukwati-ke kutsi mine nginguSimakadze. 8Ngiyawukwenta live libe lihlane, ngobe bebangaketsembeki, kusho iNkhosi Simakadze.”
