Inkulumo KaBhilidadi

1UBhilidadi umShuhi wasephendula wathi:

2“Koze kube nini ukhuluma izinto ezinjalo?

Amazwi akho angumoya ophenquzayo.

3Kambe uNkulunkulu uyakuhlanekela ukulunga na?

Kambe uSomandla uyakuhlanekela okuhle na?

4Lapho abantwabakho besona kuye,

wabapha isijeziso sokona kwabo.

5Kanti nxa wena uzakhangela kuNkulunkulu

uncenge kuSomandla,

6nxa umsulwa ulungile,

lamanje nje uzaphakama akusize

akubuyisele esimeni sakho.

7Lapho owaqalisa khona kuzakhanya sekukuncinyane,

ngoba ngezinsuku ezizayo uzabe usuphumelela kakhulu.

8Buza izizukulwane ezingaphambili

udinge ukuthi okhokho babo bafundani,

9ngoba thina sizelwe izolo nje, kasazi lutho,

lezinsuku zethu emhlabeni zilithunzi kuphela.

10Kambe kaziyikukulaya zikutshele na?

Kaziyikuletha amazwi okuzwisisa na?

11Konje imihlanga ingakhula ibe mide ingekho exhaphozini na?

Imizi ingaphila kungelamanzi na?

12Nxa leyonqodi isakhula ingakaqunywa

imane ibune masinyane kulotshani.

13Sinjalo isiphetho sabo bonke abakhohlwa uNkulunkulu;

litshabalala kanjalo ithemba lalowo ongakholwayo.

14Lokho akuthembayo kufohlozeka lula;

lokho eyeme kukho yibulembu besayobe.

15Uyeyama kulobubulembu bakhe, kodwa bubhidlike;

uyabambelela kubo, kodwa bukhithike.

16Unjengesihlahla esithelelwa kakhulu sikhula elangeni,

esisabalalisa ingatsha zaso esivandeni;

17sinxibanise impande zaso enqunjini yamatshe,

sizama ukuzuza ukugxila kuhle ematsheni.

18Kodwa singasitshulwa kuleyondawo,

leyondawo isisilandula ithi, ‘Angikaze ngikubone.’

19Ngeqiniso impilo yaso iyabuna,

ezinye izihlahla zibe zilokhu zikhula emhlabathini lowo.

20Ngeqiniso uNkulunkulu kamlahli umuntu ongelasici

futhi kaqinisi izandla zezigangi.

21Usazogcwalisa umlomo wakho ngohleko

lezindebe zakho ngokumemeza ngentokozo.

22Izitha zakho zizakwembathiswa ngehlazo,

lamathente ababi azatshabalala.”
