Impendulo KaBhilidadi
1 Kwathi lapho uBhilidadi umShuhi waphendula wathi:
2 “Koze kube nini ulokhu uphethe emlonyeni?
Nakana andubana sikhulume.
3 Kungani usithatha njengezinkomo
kube ingathi siyizithutha kuwe na?
4 Wena ozidabudabulayo ube yiziqa ngokuthukuthela kwakho,
uthi sesingawudela umhlaba ngenxa yakho?
Loba uthi amadwala agudlulwe ezindaweni zawo na?
5 Isibane somubi siyacima;
ilangabi lomlilo wakhe liyaphela ukubhebha.
6 Ukukhanya ethenteni lakhe kuyafiphala;
isibane esiseceleni kwakhe siyacima.
7 Izisinde zakhe zamandla ziyadeda;
lamacebo akhe yiwo amlahla phansi.
8 Inyawo zakhe zimbeka emambuleni
acine esemthandele.
9 Umjibila umhwiphula ngesithende;
isihitshela simuthi nki.
10 Isihitshela usifihlelwe phansi;
umjibila uthukuziwe endleleni yakhe.
11 Uyethuka ngokwesaba inxa zonke
kumlandelele langaphi aya khona.
12 Umonakalo umlambele;
incithakalo imlindele nxa esiwa.
13 Kudla ingxenye yesikhumba sakhe;
izibulo lokufa lidla izitho zakhe.
14 Uyasuswa ekuvikelekeni kwethente lakhe
aqhutshwe asiwe enkosini yokwesaba.
15 Umlilo uhlala ethenteni lakhe;
isolufa evuthayo ichithachithwe emzini wakhe.
16 Impande zakhe ziyabuna ngaphansi
lamagatsha akhe abune ngaphezulu.
17 Ukukhunjulwa kwakhe kuyaphela emhlabeni;
kalabizo elizweni.
18 Uyasuswa ekukhanyeni aye ebumnyameni
njalo axotshwe emhlabeni.
19 Kalabantwana loba isizukulwane ebantwini bakibo,
kakho loyedwa owakhe lapho ake ahlala khona.
20 Abantu bentshonalanga bayanengwa yisiphetho sakhe;
abantu bempumalanga bayatshaqeka.
21 Ngempela linjalo ikhaya lomuntu omubi;
yiyo indawo yalowo ongamaziyo uNkulunkulu.”
