Nkulunkulu watsi: “Akube khona tibane emkhatsini wesibhakabhaka tehlukanise imini nebusuku; atibe tibonakaliso tetikhatsi, netemalanga, neteminyaka.

Nkulunkulu watsi: “Umhlaba awuvete konkhe lokumilako: lokutsela tinhlavu, netihlahla tetitselo letitsela tinhlavu letiyinhlanyelo ngetinhlobo tato.” Kwase kuba njalo.
