| 50. | Babezidla, besenza amasikizi phambi kwam; ndabasusa, ndakukubona oko. |
| 51. | NoSamari akonanga ngokwesiqingatha sezono zakho; waye wena uwandisile amasikizi akho ngaphezu kwakhe, wabenza amalungisa odade benu, ngamasikizi akho owenzileyo. |
| 52. | Nawe, thwala ke ihlazo lakho, olibalele kodade benu. Ngezono zakho owazenza ngokumasikizi kunabo, ubenze baba ngamalungisa kunawe; dana ke nawe, ulithwale ihlazo lakho; ekubeni ubenze amalungisa oodade benu. |
| 53. | Ekukubuyiseni kwam ukuthinjwa kwabo, ukuthinjwa kweSodom namagxamesi ayo, nokuthinjwa koSamari namagxamesi akhe, ndokubuyisa ukuthinjwa okukuthinjwa kwakho phakathi kwabo; |
| 54. | ukuze ulithwale ihlazo lakho, uzidanele izinto zonke ozenzileyo, ubathuthuzele. |
| 55. | Baya kuthi abasakwenu, iSodom namagxamesi ayo, babuyele kwakwisimo sabo sangaphambili, noSamari namagxamesi akhe babuyele kwakwisimo sabo sangaphambili, nawe namagxamesi akho nibuyele kwakwisimo senu sangaphambili. |
| 56. | ISodom umsakwenu ayibanga sifundo emlonyeni wakho ngemini yamakratshi akho; |
| 57. | zingekatyhilwa izinto zakho ezimbi, njengasexesheni lesingcikivo samagxamesi akwa-Aram nesangeenxa zonke kuye, samagxamesi amaFilisti, awakucukulayo ngeenxa zonke. |
| 58. | Amanyala akho namasikizi akho uwathwele; utsho uYehova. |
| 59. | Ngokuba itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Ndenza ke kuwe njengoko wenze ngako wena, osidelileyo isifungo, ukuba uwaphule umnqophiso. |
| 60. | Ndiya kuwukhumbula mna umnqophiso wam nawe ngemihla yobuncinane bakho, ndikumisele umnqophiso ongunaphakade. |
| 61. | Wozikhumbula iindlela zakho, udane ekubamkeleni kwakho oodade benu, abakhulu kunawe kunye nabancinane kunawe; ndikunike babe ziintombi kuwe, noko bengengabomnqophiso wakho. |
| 62. | Ndowumisa mna umnqophiso wam nawe, wazi ukuba ndinguYehova; |
| 63. | ukuze ukhumbule, udane, ungabi saba nakuvula mlomo ngenxa yehlazo lakho, ekukuxoleleni kwam zonke izinto ozenzileyo; itsho iNkosi uYehova. |
