5 Hhayi kutsi tsine kusifanela kahle kutsatsa nobe yini njengalevela kitsi, kepha kufaneleka kwetfu kuvela kuNkulunkulu, 6 losente sakufanela kahle kuba tikhonti tesivumelwane lesisha, hhayi sivumelwane semtsetfo lobhalwe phansi, kodvwa sivumelwane semoya; ngobe umtsetfo lobhalwe phansi uletsa kufa, kodvwa umoya wona uyaphilisa.
