5 Therefore, you have no caster of a line by lot In the assembly of YHWH.
Nĩ ũndũ mũtigakorwo na mũndũ o na ũmwe kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa Jehova wa kũgaya ithaka na ũndũ wa gũcicuukĩra mĩtĩ.
6 You do not prophesy—they prophesy, They do not prophesy to these, It does not remove shame.

7 [Those] named the house of Jacob: Has the Spirit of YHWH been shortened? Are these His doings? Do My words not benefit the people that are walking uprightly?
Ningĩ nĩ kwagĩrĩire kũũranagio atĩrĩ, wee nyũmba ya Jakubu: “Kaĩ Roho wa Jehova arĩ mũrakaru? We no eke maũndũ ta macio?” “Githĩ ciugo ciakwa itigunaga mũndũ ũrĩa ũthiiaga na mĩthiĩre mĩrũngĩrĩru?
8 And recently My people raise up as an enemy, You strip off the honorable ornament from the outer garment, From the confident passers by, You who are turning back from war.
Ica‑ikuhĩ‑rĩ, andũ akwa maarahũkĩte magatuĩka ta thũ. Mũtunyaga andũ arĩa mahooreire nguo ciao cia goro, mũgatunya ehĩtũkĩri arĩa marahĩtũka matekũmaka, o acio matakoragwo na meciiria ma mbaara na inyuĩ.

10 Rise and go, for this [is] not the rest, Because of uncleanness it corrupts, And corruption is powerful.
