Bathi: Suka lapha! Bathi futhi: Lo muntu oyedwa wafika ukuba agogobale ; usefuna ukwahlulela ; manje siyakukuh lupha wena kunabo . Bamcindezela kakhulu lo muntu uLoti, basondela ukuba bafohloze umnyango.

Noma ubani obulala umuntu , umbulali uyakubulawa ngemilomo yawofakazi; kepha ufakazi oyedwa akayikufakazela muntu aze afe.

Ufakazi oyedwa nje akayikumvukela umuntu ngobubi , noma ngesono , noma kuyisiphi isono ona ngaso ; ngomlomo wawofakazi ababili noma ngomlomo wawofakazi abathathu indaba iyakuqiniswa.

Umuntu oyedwa uxoshile inkulungwane , ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu nguye onilwelayo, njengalokho ebekhuluma kini.

UJefta weza eMispa endlini yakhe ; bheka, indodakazi yakhe yaphuma ukumhlangabeza, iza nezigubhu nokusina ; yayingumntwana oyedwa ; ngaphandle kwakhe wayengenandodana nandodakazi.

Kwathi esaqala nje ukubusa, esehlezi esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi, wabulala yonke indlu kaBahasha , kamshiyelanga nomntwana oyedwa owesilisa kwabazalana naye nakubo abangane bakhe.

Kukhona oyedwa , kanaye owesibili , yebo, akanamntwana, kanamfowabo, nokho ukuphela komshikashika wakhe akukho, namehlo akhe awasuthi ngengcebo. Uthi: Ngishikashikela-bani, ngiswezisela umphefumulo wami ngokuhle, na? Nalokho kuyize nenhlupheko embi.

Ngokuba uma bewa , omunye uyavusa umngane wakhe ; kepha maye kuye oyedwa lapho ewa, engenawesibili wokumvusa!

Futhi uma ababili belele ndawonye , banokufudumala, kepha oyedwa angafudumala kanjani na?

Nakuba umuntu ahlula oyedwa , ababili bayakuma phambi kwakhe , nentambo emicu mithathu ayisheshi ukugqashuka.

UDavide inkosi wathi kulo lonke ibandla : USolomoni indodana yami , oyedwa uNkulunkulu amkhethileyo , usengumfana, usathambile, nomsebenzi mkhulu, ngokuba ithempeli alisilo elomuntu kepha ngelikaJehova uNkulunkulu.

Ukuhlakanipha kungcono kunezikhali zokulwa , ngokuba oyedwa owonayo angachitha okuhle okuningi.

Ayiyikunakekela onkulunkulu bawoyise nofiswa yisifazane , inganaki nonkulunkulu oyedwa, ngokuba iyakuzikhulisa phezu kwabo bonke.

aniqondi futhi ukuthi kunilungele ukuba umuntu oyedwa afele abantu , isizwe sonke singabhubhi.

ayakukubonakalisa ngezikhathi zakhe uSomandla obongekayo, oyedwa, iNkosi yamakhosi, uMbusi wababusi,

Ngokuba sebengenile ngokunyenya abantu abathile okwalotshwa ngabo phambili endulo ukuthi bayakwehlelwa y ilokhu kulahlwa , abangamesabi uNkulunkulu, bephendukezela umusa kaNkulunkulu wethu ube ngamanyala , bephika uMbusi oyedwa neNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu.

kuye uNkulunkulu oyedwa , uMsindisi wethu ngaye uJesu Kristu iNkosi yethu, makube ngukukhazimula, nobukhosi, namandla, negunya, kungakabikho izikhathi, namanje nakuze kube phakade. Amen.
