Iivesi zeBhayibhile malunga nobuhlwempu
- UYesu wathi kuye: “Ukuba ufuna ukufeza konke ngokupheleleyo, hamba uye kuzithengisa zonke izinto onazo, wabele amahlwempu imali leyo; woba nobutyebi ezulwini; uze kum ke, undilandele.”
- Ndiyazana nokuswela, kanti ke futhi ndikuqhelile ukuba nento yonke. Ndiwaqhelile amahlandinyuka obomi: intlutha nendlala, ubutyebi nokuswela.
- Bamele ubabonelele ngokwasemthethweni;
ncedisana nabo abahlelelekileyo nabasweleyo. - Ekubulalekeni kukusebenza kukho umvuzo;
ke yena olibala kukuncokola wambathwa bubuhlwempu kuphela. - Khanilungiselele abaxakekileyo neenkedama,
nibonelele iintsizana namahlwempu. - Nangona sineenzingo, sihlala sichwayitile. Ngathi singamahlwempu, ukanti abaninzi batyeba ngathi; ngathi singabasweleyo, kanti siphuphuma izinto zonke.
- Busesandleni sikaNdikhoyo ubutyebi nobuhlwempu,
ngokunjalo ukuphakanyiswa nokuthotywa. - Waphendula wathi kuzo: “Lowo uneengubo ezimbini makanike ongenáyo. Nalowo unokutya makenjenjalo.”
- Utsho uNdikhoyo onamandla onke ukuthi: ‘Wisani izigwebo ezinyanisekileyo, nenzelane ububele nenceba omnye nomnye. Musani ukubacinezela abahlolokazi neenkedama, ngokunjalo nabangeneleli kunye namahlwempu, ningayili ububi ezintliziyweni zenu omnye komnye.’
- Umntu osisityebi uyalilawula ihlwempu;
nalowo ubolekayo likhoboka lalowo ubolekisayo. - Lwazibika udwayi, waluva uNdikhoyo,
walukhupha kuzo zonke iinkxwaleko zalo. - Ngubani ke onokusahlukanisa nothando lukaKrestu? Yimbandezelo na? Yinkxwaleko na? Yintshushiso na? Yindlala na? Bubuzé na? Yingozi na? Likrele na?
- Ndikhwebule kubuqhetseba nokuxoka;
mandingade ndibe sisityebi okanye ndihlwempuzeke,
nto nje ndiqhekezele isonka sam semihla ngemihla. - Kusenokwenzeka ukuba ubutyebi bomntu bube yintlawulo yobomi bakhe;
kanti ke lona ihlwempu alazani nokugrogriswa. - Kaloku ndandisabela ndiwahlangule amahlwempu esakukhala;
ukanti ndazibonelela neenkedama ezazingenamncedi.
Ababesindakala ndaza ndabanceda babendincoma,
ukanti nabahlolokazi ndandibanceda batsho baba neengoma ezintliziyweni zabo. - Umntu uzilahlela kuloo nto ayinqwenelayo;
phofu akunani kwaukuba lihlwempu kunokuba lixoki. - Ewe, nokuba ndinganikisa ngempahla yam yonke, ndide nam ngokwam ndizinikele ukuba nditshiswe, kodwa ke ndingenalo uthando, akuncedi nto konke-konke.
- UMoya weNkosi undongamele,
ngoko ke indithambisile;
indalathele ukushumayela iindaba ezimnandi kwabasweleyo.
Yandithuma ukuvakalisa inkululeko kubathinjwa,
nokubuyisela ukubona kwabaziimfama,
ndibandululè bekhululekile abacinezelweyo. - Ke mna ndonganyelwe nguMoya woMhlekazi uNdikhoyo,
kuba kaloku uNdikhoyo undithambisile.
Undithume ukubhengeza iindaba ezimnandi kumahlwempu,
ndibophe abantliziyo zingamahlwili,
ndibhengeze ukukhululeka kwabathinjwa,
ndazise inkululeko kumabanjwa. - Lamla, Ndikhoyo; caca ukuba unguThixo!
Sukubalibal' abantw' abahlelelekileyo!

Umsindo kaNdikhoyo uza kade,kodwa ke yena ngumandla-makhulu.
Umntu owonileyo akaphuncuki kwisohlwayo sakhe.
Indlela yakhe sisivungu-vungu noqhwithela;
amafu luthuli lweenyawo zakhe.
