2 Wathi ke uYakobi kwindlu yakhe nakubo bonke ababenaye: “Balahleni oothixo basemzini abaphakathi kwenu,+ nize nizihlambulule, nitshintshe neengubo zenu zokwaleka,+

3 Uze ungabi nathixo bambi+ ngokuchasene nam.

15 kuba hleze wenze umnqophiso nabemi belo zwe, njengoko ngokuqinisekileyo beya kuba neentlobano zokuziphatha okubi kunye noothixo babo,+ babingelele kwabo thixo babo,+ aze othile kubo akumeme ngokuqinisekileyo, uze uwudle ngokuqinisekileyo omnye wombingelelo wakhe.+

30 “Ngoko ke yithi kwindlu kaSirayeli, ‘Itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova ukuthi: “Ngaba nizenza iinqambi na ngendlela yookhokho benu,+ nilandela izinto zabo ezilizothe ngeentlobano zokuziphatha okubi?+

8 Ke kaloku ngokuphathelele ukutya okunikelwe kwizithixo:+ siyazi ukuba sonke sinolwazi.+ Ulwazi luyakhukhumalisa, kodwa uthando luyakha.+

14 Ngoko ke, zintanda zam, sabani+ kulo unqulo-zithixo.+
