₁Ngase ngibona ingelosi yehla ezulwini, esandleni sayo iphethe isihluthulelo sakwalasha neketango elikhulu esandleni sayo. ₂Yambamba udrago, inyoka endala, uMhlebi noSathane, yambopha iminyaka eyinkulungwane, ₃yamphonsa kwalasha, yamvalela phakathi, yavala ngci ngophawu ngaphezu kwakhe, ukuze angabe esazidukisa izizwe, ize iphele iminyaka eyinkulungwane. Emva kwalokho kumele ukuba akhululwe okwesikhashana.

₄Ngase ngibona izihlalo zobukhosi, bahlala kuzo, banikwa amandla okwahlulela. Ngabona imiphefumulo yalabo ababenqunywe amakhanda ngenxa yobufakazi ngoJesu, nangenxa yezwi likaNkulunkulu, nalabo abangakhulekanga kuso isilo nasemfanekisweni waso, nabangalwemukelanga uphawu lwaso emabunzini abo nasezandleni zabo.
