AmaHubo.

Ihubo lika-Asafi. USomandla, uNkulunkulu, uThixo, uyakhuluma, ubiza umhlaba kusukela okuphuma khona ilanga kuze kufike lapho elitshona khona. 
EseZiyoni, epheleleyo ngobuhle, uNkulunkulu uyakhazimula. 
UNkulunkulu wethu uyeza, kayikuthula; umlilo uyahangula phambi kwakhe, emaceleni akhe kukhukhula isiphepho. 
Ubiza amazulu ngaphezulu lomhlaba, ukuze ehlulele abantu bakhe: 
“Qoqani kimi abahlanjululiweyo bami, abenza isivumelwano lami ngemihlatshelo.” 
Lamazulu atshumayela ukulunga kwakhe; ngoba uNkulunkulu ngumahluleli ngokwakhe. 
“Zwanini, bantu bami, ngizakhuluma; yebo Israyeli, ngizafakaza ngimelane lawe; nginguNkulunkulu, Nkulunkulu wakho 
Kangikukhuzi ngemihlatshelo yakho kumbe iminikelo yakho yokutshiswa, ehlezi ikhona phambi kwami. 
Angisweli inkunzi ephuma esibayeni sakho kumbe imbuzi zesilugu sakho, 
ngoba yiphi layiphi inyamazana yeganga ngeyami, lenkomo ezisemaqaqeni azinkulungwane. 
Ngazi zonke izinyoni ezisezintabeni, lezidalwa zeganga ngezami. 
Aluba ngangingolambayo ngangingekulitshela, ngoba umhlaba ngowami, lakho konke okukuwo. 
Ngidla inyama yezinkunzi yini kumbe nginatha igazi lembuzi na? 
Yenzani imihlatshelo yokubonga kuNkulunkulu, gcwalisani izifungo zenu koPhezukonke, 
njalo lize kimi mhla lisekuhluphekeni; ngizalikhulula, lani lizangidumisa.” 
Kodwa kwababi, uNkulunkulu uthi: “Lilelungelo bani ukukhuluma imithetho yami kumbe liphathe isivumelwano sami ezindebeni zenu na? 
Liyazizonda iziqondiso zami, lilahlela amazwi ami emuva kwenu. 
Lithi lingabona isela lihle libambane lalo; lisuka lingenelane lezifebe. 
Lisebenzisa imilomo yenu ukukhuluma okubi lifundise ulimi lwenu inkohliso. 
Linyeya umfowenu njalonjalo, limgcone umntakanyoko uqobo. 
Lizenzile lezizinto ngazithulela; lalikhumbula ukuthi ngifana lani. Kodwa ngizalikhuza ngilibonisa icala lenu obala. 
Nanzelelani lokhu, lina elikhohlwa uNkulunkulu, funa ngilidabudabule, kungekho ongalilamulela: 
Lowo onikela iminikelo yokubonga uyangidumisa, njalo ulungisa indlela ukuze ngimtshengise insindiso yami.”
