Ngalesosikhathi umbuso wamazulu uzafananiswa lentombi ezilitshumi ezathatha izibane zazo zaphuma ukuhlangabeza umyeni.
Njalo ezinhlanu zazo zazihlakaniphile, lezinhlanu zaziyizithutha.
Eziyizithutha zathatha izibane zazo, kazithathanga amafutha kanye lazo;
kodwa ezihlakaniphileyo zathatha amafutha ezitsheni kanye lezibane zazo.
Kwathi umyeni esephuzile, zawozela zonke zalala ubuthongo.
Kodwa phakathi kobusuku kwamenyezwa: Khangelani, umyeni uyeza, phumani liyemhlangabeza!
Zasezivuka lezontombi zonke, zalungisa izibane zazo.
Eziyizithutha zasezisithi kwezihlakaniphileyo: Sipheni okwamafutha enu, ngoba izibane zethu ziyacitsha.

Kodwa ezihlakaniphileyo zaphendula, zathi: Hlezi angaseneli thina lani; kodwa kungcono ukuthi lihambe liye kwabathengisayo lizithengele.
Kwathi zisiyathenga, weza umyeni. Ezasezilungile zasezingena laye emtshadweni, kwasekuvalwa umnyango.
Kwathi emva kwalokho zafika lalezontombi ezinye, zathi: Nkosi, Nkosi, sivulele!
Kodwa yena waphendula wathi: Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Angilazi lina.
Ngakho lindani, ngoba kalilwazi usuku lehola iNdodana yomuntu efika ngalo.
Ngoba kunjengomuntu owaya kwelinye ilizwe wabiza inceku zakhe, wazinika impahla zakhe;
