| 1. | Khangela, i Nkosi yenza umhlaba ube yize, iwenze ube yincithakalo, yone ubuso bawo, ihlakaze abahlali bawo. |
| 2. | Kuzakuthi njengabantu kube njalo umpristi; njengesisebenzi kube njalo inkosi yaso; njengencekukazi kube njalo inkosikazi yayo; njengomthengi kube njalo umthengisi; njengombolekisi kube njalo obolekayo; njengomniki wesikwelede, kube njalo okweledayo. |
| 3. | Umhlaba uzachitheka lokuchitheka, uphangwe lokuphangwa; ngoba i Nkosi ilikhulumile lelilizwi. |
| 4. | Umhlaba uyalila, ubune, ilizwe liyadangala, libune; abantu bomhlaba abaphakemeyo bayadangala. |
| 5. | Umhlaba lawo ungcolisiwe ngaphansi kwabahlali bawo; ngoba beqile imilayo, baguqula isimiso, bephula isivumelwano esilaphakade. |
| 6. | Ngenxa yalokho isiqalekiso siwuqedile umhlaba, labahlala kuwo bayachitheka; ngakho-ke abahlali bomhlaba batshisiwe, njalo kusale abantu abalutshwana. |
| 7. | Iwayini elitsha liyalila, ivini lidangale, bonke abanhliziyo ethokozayo bayabubula. |
| 8. | Injabulo yezigubhu iphelile, umsindo wabajabulayo uphelile, intokozo yechacho iphelile. |
| 9. | Kabayikunatha iwayini ngengoma; okunathwayo okulamandla kuzababa kwabakunathayo. |
| 10. | Umuzi wencithakalo ubhidlikile, yonke indlu ivaliwe ukuze kungangenwa. |
| 11. | Kukhalelwa iwayini ezitaladeni; intokozo yonke ifiphele, injabulo yomhlaba inyamalele. |
| 12. | Emzini kusele incithakalo, lesango litshayiwe lachithwa. |
| 13. | Ngoba phakathi kwelizwe, phakathi kwabantu, kuzakuba njalo njengokunyikinywa kwesihlahla somhlwathi, njengokukhothoza sesiphelile isivuno sezithelo zevini. |
| 14. | Bona bazaphakamisa ilizwi labo, bazahlabelela ubukhosi beNkosi, bamemeze beselwandle. |
| 15. | Ngenxa yalokhu dumisani i Nkosi ekukhanyeni, ibizo leNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli ezihlengeni zolwandle. |
| 16. | Sizwile amahubo avela emkhawulweni womhlaba, udumo kolungileyo. Kodwa ngathi: Ukucaka kwami, ukucaka kwami! Maye kimi! Abenzi benkohliso benze ngokukhohlisa; yebo abenzi benkohliso benze ngokukhohlisa okukhulu. |
| 17. | Ukwesaba lomgodi lomjibila kuphezu kwakho, wena mhlali womhlaba. |
| 18. | Kuzakuthi-ke obalekela umsindo wokwesaba awele emgodini; lowenyuka phakathi komgodi abanjwe ngumjibila; ngoba amawindi aphezulu avulekile, lezisekelo zomhlaba ziyaqhaqhazela. |
| 19. | Umhlaba wephukile lokwephuka, umhlaba udatshudatshuliwe, umhlaba uyanyikinyeka kakhulu. |
| 20. | Umhlaba uzadiyazela lokudiyazela njengesidakwa, uzunguzeke njengedumba; lesiphambeko sawo sizakuba nzima phezu kwawo; uzakuwa, ungabe u sa vuka futhi. |
| 21. | Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku i Nkosi ijezise ibutho labaphakemeyo aba phezulu, lamakhosi omhlaba phezu komhlaba. |
| 22. | Bazabuthelwa ndawonye njenge zibotshwa zibuthelwa emgodini, bavalelwe entolongweni, langemva kwensuku ezinengi bethekelelwe. |
| 23. | Khona inyanga izayangeka, lelanga libe lenhloni, lapho i Nkosi yamabandla izabusa entabeni iZiyoni laseJerusalema, laphambi kwabadala bayo ngenkazimulo. |
