Umngane wakhe waphendula wathi : Lokhu akulutho ngaphandle kwenkemba kaGideyoni indodana kaJowashi , umuntu wakwa -Israyeli; uNkulunkulu unikele esandleni sakhe uMidiyani nempi yonke.

Akulutho kinina nonke enidlul a ngendlela na ? Bhekani, nibone ukuba kukhona yini ubuhlungu obunjengobuhlungu bami engehlelwe yibo, uJehova angihluphe ngabo ngosuku lokufutheka kwentukuthelo yakhe.

Maye kinina baholi abayizimpumputhe enithi : Ofunga ithempeli akulutho, kodwa ofunga igolide lethempeli uzibophile!

Futhi: Yilowo ofunga i -altare akulutho , kodwa ofunga umnikelo ophezu kwalo uzibophile.

Ukusoka akulutho , nokungasoki ak ulutho, kuphela ukugcina imiyalo kaNkulunkulu.

Kepha kwabadumile ngokuthi bayinto -- nokuba babe yini , akulutho kimi; uNkulunkulu akakhethi ubuso bamuntu -- ngokuba kimi abadumileyo abenezelanga lutho.

Ngokuba nakusoka nakungasoki akulutho, isidalwa esisha kuphela.
