James 5:7-12

Ngakho bekezelani, bazalwane, ize ifike iNkosi. Bhekani, umlimi uyalindela isithelo somhlaba esiyigugu, ebekezelela sona, size sithole imvula yokuqala neyamuva. Bekezelani nani, niqinise izinhliziyo zenu, ngokuba ukufika kweNkosi kusondele. Ningavungamelani, bazalwane, ukuba ningahlulelwa; bhekani, umahluleli umi ngaseminyango.
Bazalwane, misani abaprofethi ababekhuluma egameni leNkosi babe yisibonelo sokuhlupheka nokubekezela. Bhekani, babusisiwe abakhuthazelayo; nizwile ngokukhuthazela kukaJobe, nibonile impetho yeNkosi ukuthi iNkosi inesihe esikhulu nesihawu.

Kepha phezu kwakho konke, bazalwane bami, ningafungi; ningafungi izulu noma umhlaba noma esinye isifungo; kodwa uyebo wenu makabe nguyebo, noqhabo uqhabo, ukuze ningaweli ekwahlulelweni.
