64 1Sengathi ungadabula amazulu wehle, zize izintaba zithuthumele phambi kwakho, 2njengomlilo oshisa izinkuni zivuthe, ubilise namanzi—ukwenza igama lakho laziwe yizitha zakho, ukuze izizwe zithuthumele phambi kwakho! 3Lapho wenza izinto ezesabekayo esasingazilindele, wehla, zathuthumela izintaba phambi kwakho. 4Kusukela endulo, akekho owake wezwa noma waqonda ngendlebe, alikho iso elibone omunye ngaphandle kwakho, owenzela lowo omlindele. 5Wamukela labo abenza okulungileyo ngenjabulo, abakukhumbulayo besahamba ezindleleni zakho. Kodwa wena wathukuthela, thina sona; sesikade sisezonweni zethu—singasindiswa na? 6Sonke sesifana nongcolileyo, nazo zonke izenzo zethu zokulunga zifana nengubo engcolileyo. Sonke sibuna njengeqabi, nezono zethu, njengomoya, ziyasisusa. 7Akekho obiza igama lakho, ozivusayo ukuba akubambe; ngokuba usifihlele ubuso bakho, wasinikela ezonweni zethu.
8Kodwa manje, wena unguBaba wethu; thina siwubumba, wena ungumbumbi wethu; sonke singumsebenzi wesandla sakho. 9Ungathukutheli kangaka, Baba wethu, ungasikhumbuli isono sethu kuze kube phakade. Bheka, siyakucela—sonke singabantu bakho. 10Imizi yakho engcwele isiphenduke ihlane; iZiyoni isiphenduke ihlane, iJerusalema incithakalo. 11Indlu yethu engcwele enhle, lapho obaba bethu babekudumisa khona, isishiswe ngomlilo, nakho konke esasikuthanda sekuyincithakalo. 12Emva kwakho konke lokhu, uzozibamba yini, Baba wethu? Uzothula uphinde usihluphe kangaka na?
