36.

Lenhlangano yonke yamkhuphela ngaphandle kwenkamba, yamkhanda ngamatshe waze wafa, njengokulaya kwe Nkosi kuMozisi.

37.

Njalo kuzakuba kini yintshaka ukuze likukhangele, likhumbule yonke imilayo ye Nkosi, liyenze, lingadingi lilandele inhliziyo yenu lilandele amehlo enu, eliphinga ngokukulandela.

40.

Ukuze likhumbule lenze yonke imilayo yami, libe ngcwele kuNkulunkulu wenu.

41.

Ngiyi Nkosi uNkulunkulu wenu eyalikhupha elizweni leGibhithe ukuba nguNkulunkulu wenu; ngiyi Nkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
