Taga 20:1-30
20 Liwayini lenta umuntfu abe sedzeleli,+ futsi tjwala benta umuntfu angalawuleki;+Umuntfu loduka endleleni lelungile ngenca yako ulibele.+
2 Kwesabeka kwenkhosi kufana nekubhodla kwelibhubesi;+Umuntfu loyitfukutselisako ubeka kuphila kwakhe engotini.+
3 Umuntfu lokubalekelako kucabana nalabanye utawudvunyiswa,+Kodvwa silima sivele singene shi kuko.+
4 Livila alilimi nakumakhata,Kodvwa kutawutsi nasekuvunwa lihambe licela ngobe litawube lingenalutfo.*+
5 Loko* lokusenhlitiyweni yemuntfu kufana nemanti lasendzaweni leshonako,Kodvwa umuntfu lonekucondza uyakhona kukukhiphela ebaleni.
6 Bantfu labanyenti batsi banelutsandvo lolucotfo,Kodvwa kumatima kutfola umuntfu lonalo mbamba.
7 Lolungile uphila imphilo lecotfo.+
Bayajabula bantfwana* labatalwa nguye.+
8 Inkhosi nayihlala esihlalweni sayo sebukhosi kuze yehlulele,+Ihlolisisa konkhe kuze isuse yonkhe intfo lembi.+
9 Ngubani nje longatsi: “Mine ngiyigezile inhlitiyo yami;+Nyalo sengite sono”?+
10 Tisindvo letingaketsembeki netikali letingemanga*Tiyenyanyeka kuJehova.+
11 Ngisho nemntfwana* watiwa ngetento takhe,Kutsi utiphatsa ngendlela lemsulwa nalelungile yini.+
12 Tindlebe letivako nemehlo labonakoKwadalwa nguJehova.+
13 Ungakutsandzi kulala ngobe utawuphuya.+
Vuka, khona utawuba nekudla lokunyenti.+
14 Umtsengi utsi: “Lentfo lembi kanje! Yimbi lentfo”;Bese sewuyahamba futsi atishaye sifuba ngekutsi uyitsenge ngemali lencane.+
15 Umuntfu angaba neligolide nematje lamanyenti laligugu aselwandle,Kodvwa uligugu kakhulu umlomo wemuntfu lonelwati.+
16 Ubositsatsa sembatfo semuntfu lowetsembise kubhadalela sihambi;+Utsatse sibambiso kuye nangabe etsembise kubhadalela umfati wakulelinye live.*+
17 Umuntfu ukuva kumnandzi kudla lokutfolakele ngebucili,Kodvwa ngemuva kwaloko umlomo wakhe utawugcwala umhlabatsi.+
18 Tinhloso titawuphumelela nangabe ubuta* kulabanye,+Futsi nawuya emphini, udzinga sicondziso lesihlakaniphile.+
19 Umnyundzeli uhambe akhuluma ngetimfihlo talabanye bantfu.+
Ungatihlanganisi nemuntfu lotsandza kuhleba.
20 Nobe ngubani localekisa babe wakhe namake wakhe,Sibane sakhe sitawucinywa nasekufike bumnyama.+
21 Ngisho nobe umuntfu loligovu anganjinga,Kodvwa ekugcineni ngeke abusiswe.+
22 Ungabokusho utsi: “Ngitatiphindziselela ngalokubi!”+
Yetsembela kuJehova+ futsi yena utakusita.+
23 Tisindvo letingaketsembeki* tiyenyanyeka kuJehova,Futsi tikali letikhohlisako atisikahle.
24 Tinyatselo temuntfu ticondziswa nguJehova;+Ngako umuntfu angayati njani nje indlela lokufanele ahambe ngayo?
25 Umuntfu utibekela lugibe nangabe enta setsembiso kuNkulunkulu angakacabangi,+Bese ngemuva kwesikhatsi kube ngukhani acabangisisa ngalesifungo lasentile.+
26 Inkhosi lehlakaniphile yehlukanisa lababi kulabalungile+Futsi ibasuse kube shengatsi ibasusa ngelithulusi lekwela.+
27 Tintfo letishiwo* ngumuntfu tifana nesibane saJehova,Sikubeka ebaleni loko lokusenhlitiyweni yemuntfu.
28 Lutsandvo lolucotfo kanye nekwetsembeka kuyayilondvolota inkhosi;+Sihlalo sayo sebukhosi sitawusima nangabe inelutsandvo lolucotfo.+
29 Bantfu labasha badvunyiswa ngenca yemandla abo,+Nebantfu labakhulile bahlonishwa ngenca yekutsi banetimvu enhloko.+
30 Imivimba nemanceba kwenta umuntfu ayekele kwenta* lokubi,+Futsi kushaywa kuyenta ihlobe inhlitiyo yemuntfu.
