Amazwi ka-Aguri indodana kaJakhe, amazwi ahlakaniphileyo: Umuntu lo wathi ku-Ithiyeli: “Ngikhathele, Oh Nkulunkulu, kodwa ngizophumelela. 
Angilalwazi okudlula bonke abantu; angilakho ukuzwisisa komuntu. 
Angikufundanga ukuhlakanipha njalo kangilalwazi ngaye oNgcwele. 
Ngubani oseke waya ezulwini waphinda wehla na? Ngubani oseke wafumbatha umoya ngesandla sakhe na? Ngubani oseke wagoqela amanzi ngesigqoko sakhe na? Ngubani omise yonke imikhawulo yomhlaba na? Lingubani ibizo lakhe, lebizo lendodana yakhe? Ngitshela nxa usazi! 
Wonke amazwi kaNkulunkulu akalamposiso; uyisihlangu kulabo abacatsha kuye. 
Ungengezeleli emazwini akhe, funa akukhuze akwenze umqambimanga. 
Zimbili izinto engizicela kuwe, Oh Thixo; ungangincitshi zona ngingakafi: 
Susa kimi inkohliso lamanga; ungangiphi ubuyanga loba inotho, kodwa ungiphe kuphela ukudla kwami kwansukuzonke. 
Phela ngingaba lokunengi kakhulu ngikuphike wena ngithi, ‘Ungubani uThixo?’ loba ngibengumyanga ngintshontshe; ngalokho ngiliyangise ibizo likaNkulunkulu wami. 
Ungahlebi inceku enkosini yayo, ngoba izakuqalekisa ungene enkathazweni. 
Bakhona abathuka oyise, abangababusisiyo onina; 
labo abazibona belungile ikanti kabahlambululwanga emanyaleni abo; 
labo abamehlo abo ahlezi egcwele ulaka, abakhangela ngokudelela; 
labo omazinyo abo zinkemba, omihlathi yabo inanyathiselwe izingqamu ukuze baginye abayanga baphele emhlabeni, labaswelayo abaphakathi kwabantu. 
Umkhaza ulamadodakazi amabili; ayamemeza athi, ‘Siphe! Siphe!’ Zintathu izinto ezingasuthiyo, zine ezingakaze zithi, ‘Sekwanele!’: 
lingcwaba yisisu senyumba, lomhlabathi ongasuthiyo amanzi, lomlilo ongezukufa wathi, ‘Sekwanele!’ 
Ilihlo elihleka uyise, elidelela ukulalela unina, lizakotsholwa ngamawabayi asesigodini, lizadliwa ngamanqe. 
Kukhona izinto ezintathu ezingimangalisayo kakhulu, ezine engingazizwisisiyo: 
indlela yengqungqulu emkhathini, umzila wenyoka edwaleni, indlela yomkhumbi olwandle, lendlela yejaha lentombi. 
Le yindlela yesiphingikazi: siyadla sesule umlomo waso besesisithi, ‘Angenzanga lutho olubi.’ 
Zintathu izinto ezizamazamisa umhlaba, zine ongeke uzithwale: 
yinceku ebayinkosi, yisiwula esisuthiyo, 
ngumfazi owendileyo ongathandwayo, lencekukazi ethathela inkosikazi indoda. 
Kukhona emhlabeni izinto ezine ezincinyane, ikanti-ke zihlakaniphile kakhulu: 
Ubunyonyo kabulamandla anganani, kodwa buyabuthelela ukudla kwabo ehlobo; 
lezimbila ziyizidalwa ezilamandla angatsho lutho, kodwa zenza izikhundla zazo ezingoxweni zamadwala; 
izintethe kazilankosi, kodwa zihamba ziludibi olwesabekayo; 
umbankwa ungabanjwa ngesandla, kodwa ungena lasezigodlweni zamakhosi. 
Kulezinto ezintathu ezihamba zinqekuza kamnandi, zine ezihamba zibeka kamnandi: 
yisilwane, esilamandla esabekayo phakathi kwezilo, esingabalekeli lutho; 
liqhude eliditshazelayo, yimpongo, njalo lenkosi nxa ihanqwe libutho layo. 
Nxa ube yisithutha waziphakamisa, kumbe nxa wakhe amacebo okwenza okubi, vala umlomo wakho ngesandla sakho. 
Ngoba njengokuphehla uchago kudala iphehla, lanjengoba ukugubha amakhala kubanga umungula, kunjalo ukuvusa ulaka kudala ingxabano.”
