Ngalolo suku kuyakuba yimizi eyisihlanu ezweni laseGibithe eyakukhuluma ulimi lwaseKhanani , ifunge uJehova Sebawoti ; omunye uyakuthiwa uMuzi Welanga.

INkosi uJehova inginikile ulimi l wabafundi ukuba ngazi ukuvuselela oyethileyo ngamazwi ahlumelelayo; ivusa njalo indlebe yami ekuseni imihla ngemihla ukuba ngizwe njengabafundi.
