Isaiah 43:18-25

“Ningakhumbuli izinto zakuqala,
ningazindli ngezindaba zasendulo.
Bhekani, ngiyakwenza okusha;
kuyakuqhamuka manje,
angithi niyakwazi na?
Yebo, ngiyakwenza indlela ehlane
nemifula kwahlongasibi.
Izilwane zasendle ziyakungidumisa,
amakhanka nezintshe,
ngokuba ngiveza amanzi ehlane
nemifula kwahlongasibi
ukuphuzisa abantu bami abakhethiweyo,
laba bantu engizenzele bona
ukuba bashumayele udumo lwami.

“Kepha awungibizanga, Jakobe,
ngokuba wadinwa yimi, Israyeli.
Awulethanga kimi izimvu zakho zomnikelo wokushiswa,
awungidumisanga ngemihlatshelo yakho;
angikukhonzisanga ngeminikelo,
angikudinisanga ngenhlaka.
Awungithengelanga umhlanga othaphukayo ngemali,
awungisuthisanga ngamanoni emihlatshelo yakho,
kepha ungisebenzisile ngezono zakho,
ungidinisile ngobubi bakho.

“Mina, mina nginguye
owesula iziphambeko zakho ngenxa yami;
angiyikukhumbula izono zakho.
