Ngubani ongakufumana na?

25Godu ngabuya ngacabangisisa ekwazini

kobana ngihlolisise bengirhubhulule ubuhlakani

kanye nobudlhadlha bokutlhoga ingqondo.

26Ngafumana okumunyu khulu kunokufa:

ohliziywakhe isirhurhulanede

nezandla zakhe ziziinkhungo.

Umuntu okara uZimu uyaphunyurha kuye,

phakathi kwabo boke.

29Qala, ngafunyana lokhu kwaphela:

UZimu wenze abantu baba qotho,

kodwana bona bazifunela amaqhinga amanengi.
