Engakutshelwayo kulutshwana kakhulu, ukuhlakanipha kwakho lenotho yakho kwedlula khatshana lokho engakuzwayo. 8 Bayathokoza kakhulu abantu bakho futhi ziyathokoza lezinceku zakho ezima phambi kwakho zikhathi zonke zilalela inhlakanipho yakho.+ 9 Kadunyiswe uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho+ owakuthandayo wakubeka esihlalweni sobukhosi sako-Israyeli. Wakubeka waba yinkosi ukuze abako-Israyeli bahlulelwe kuhle langokulunga ngoba uJehova uyabathanda abako-Israyeli futhi uzahlala ebathanda.”
