Maliguquke, lize kuNdikhoyo;

Malize kuThixo wethu,
kuba yena uxolela kangangoko. - Ke kaloku ndifumanise ukuba eyona nto ilungileyo nefanelekileyo ukuba umntu ayenze kukutya asele, akuxhamle enelisekile ukubulaleka kwakhe ngezi ntsukwana zimbalwa aziphiwe nguThixo apha phantsi kwelanga. Kaloku eso sisabelo sakhe.
