Lokhu kuyindaba kaJakobe . UJosefa eseneminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa wawalusa umhlambi kayise enabafowabo; engumfana nje wayekuwo amadodana kaBiliha nakuwo amadodana kaZilipa omkayise; uJosefa waletha kuyise imibiko emibi ngabo.

Wathi kuwo : Nenzelani izinto ezinjalo na ? Ngokuba ngiyezwa imisebenzi yenu emibi kubo bonke laba bantu.

Abakukhonzanga embusweni wabo , nasebuhleni bakho obukhulu owabanika bona, nasezweni elibanzi nelivundileyo owabapha lona ebusweni babo, ababuyanga emisebenzini yabo emibi.

Ingani enhliziyweni niphehla imisebenzi emibi ; ezweni nilinganisa ngesilinganiso ukudluzula kwezandla zenu.

Akesabi imibiko emibi; inhliziyo yakhe iqinile, iyethemba uJehova.

nenhliziyo eceba imicabango emibi , nezinyawo ezishesha ukugijimela ebubini,

Jerusalema, hlanza inhliziyo yakho , kuphume ububi , ukuze usindiswe . Koze kube nini imicabango yakho emibi ihlala phakathi kwakho na?

NgeDamaseku. IHamati ne -Aripadi ku jabhile, ngokuba kuzwile imibiko emibi, kuphela amandla. Kuyahlupheka njengolwandle, akunakuthula.

Lapho ngithumela kini imicibisholo emibi yendlala eyakuba ngukuchitheka kwabo, engiyakuyithuma ukunichitha, ngiyakukhulisa indlala phe zu kwenu, ngaphule uzime lwenu lwesinkwa,

ngokuba ngaphakathi enhliziyweni yabantu kuphuma imicabango emibi , nobufebe, nokweba, nokubulala,

Nani ekade ningabafokazi nezitha engqondweni ngemisebenzi emibi,

INkosi iyakungikhulula kuyo yonke imisebenzi emibi , ingisindise, ngize ngifike embusweni wayo osezulwini ; makube kuyo inkazimulo kuze kube phakade naphakade. Amen. Isigcino
