Wayesethi kuye : Nami ngingumprofethi njengawe ; kwakhuluma kimi ingelosi ngezwi likaJehova ngokuthi: Mbuyise, uye naye endlini yakho ukuba athole ukudla, aphuze amanzi. Kodwa waqamba amanga kuye.

Wayesekhuphuka u -Ahabi ukuba adle , aphuze. U-Eliya wakhuph ukela esiqongweni saseKarmeli , wakhothamela phansi , wabeka ubuso bakhe phakathi kwamadolo akhe.

Ngakho-ke lowo odla lesi sinkwa , aphuze lesi sitsha seNkosi ngokungafanele, unecala lomzimba negazi leNkosi.

Kodwa umuntu akazihlolisise , khona-ke akadle lesi sinkwa , aphuze lesi sitsha.

Ngokuba odlayo aphuze uzidlela aziphuzele icala, uma engawahlukanisi umzimba weNkosi.

Niyakwazi lokho, bazalwane bami abathandekayo . Yilowo nalowo muntu makasheshe ukuzwa, aphuze ukukhuluma, aphuze ukuthukuthela;

Uma okuzondayo elambile, mnike ukudla, adle; uma omile, muphe amanzi, aphuze.

Odla inyama yami , aphuze igazi lami , unokuphila okuphakade ; mina ngiyakumvusa ngomuhla wokuphela.

Odla inyama yami, aphuze igazi lami, uhlala kimi, nami kuye.

Kepha ngosuku lokugcina olukhulu lomkhosi uJesu wema wamemeza wathi: Uma ekhona owomileyo, akeze kimi, aphuze.

Kwathi isiqedile ukuyiphuzisa , yathi: Ngiyakukhelela namakamela akho , aze aphuze onke.

Akukho okuhle kumuntu kunalokhu kokuba adle , aphuze, abonise umphefumulo wakhe okuhle emshikashikeni wakhe , kepha nalokho ngakubona ukuthi kuvela esandleni sikaNkulunkulu.
