Kulolu cwaningo siyathola ukuthi uZulu wayengazingeli noma ikanjani noma nini.<br />
Kwakunezikhathi onyakeni ezaziwayo, nenqina uqobo lwayo nosuku lwayo<br />
kwakwaziwa komkhulu. Ngisho nabafana uqobo ekwaluseni babengafundeli kuzo<br />
ukuciba nokugwaza kodwa babeciba insema. Lokhu kwakungumyalelo wabaholi.<br />
EBhayibhelini Elingcwele encwadini kaGenesise 1 ivesi 26 umyalelo kaNkulunkulu<br />
uthi:<br />
Masenze abantu ngomfanekiso wethu, basifuze, babuse<br />
phezu kwezilwane, kwezinhlazi zolwandle nezinyoni<br />

ngendlela emangalisayo. Kuliqiniso elingephikwe ukuthi izilwane zazivele zivikelekile<br />

small game, elephants and buffalo, hippos and rhinoes,<br />
lion an leopard, zebra and eland, bush-buck, kudu and<br />
heartbeest and other sorts and sizes of antelope, ranged<br />
freely over the land.<br />
Ngaphambi kokuba abelungu babeke imicondo yabo<br />
kwelakwaZulu lalingumpunzi idla emmI ISlqlWU<br />

nezincane, izindloyu nezinyathi, izimboma, imikhombe<br />
nobhejane, amabhubesi nezigwe, amadube nezimpofu,<br />
imiziki, imigankla nezindlulamithi kanye nenqwaba<br />
