“Wothi kubo, ‘UThixo uthi: Abantu bangawa, kabavuki na? Omunye angaphambuka, kaphenduki na?
5 Hianagi na'a hige'za Jerusalemi kumapi vahe'mo'za Nagrira natre'za vuvava nehu'za, krunagema nehaza avu'ava zana azerintrako nehaze? Ana nehu'za Nagritera ete rukrahe hu'za nomaze.
Pho kungani abantu laba bedukile? Kungani iJerusalema lihlala liseduka? Bayanamathela enkohlisweni, bayala ukuphenduka.
6 Zamagrama haza nanekerera Nagra nagesa ante'na antahi so'e nehuanagi, tamage nanekea nosaze. Hagi mago vahe'mo'e huno hazenkema huteno'a, hago haviza tro hu'noe huno keno antahino nehuno asunkura nosie.

Lingatsho kanjani ukuthi, “Sihlakaniphile, ngoba silomthetho kaThixo,” lona iqiniso kuyikuthi amanga alotshwe ngosiba lwababhali asenze umthetho wangabi liqiniso?
9 Knare antahi'zane vahera zamazeri zamagaze hanage'za zamahirahiku nehu'za antahintahi hakare nehanage'za, zamazeri'za zamavare'za vugahaze. Zamagra Ra Anumzamofo nanekea antahi'za amagera onte'nazanki, nankna knare antahi'za zamagra eri'naze?

Babopha inxeba labantu bami kungathi kalilibi kakhulu. Bathi, “Ukuthula, ukuthula,” khona ukuthula kungekho.
12 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama agoterfa avu'ava zama hu'naza zankura zamagazea nosifi? I'o zamagazegu'ma nehu'za kepri'ma hu avu'avara ontahi'naze.

Kambe bayayangeka na ngokuziphatha kwabo okunengisayo? Hatshi, bavele kabalazo inhloni, lokuyangeka kabakwazi. Ngakho bazawela phakathi kwabawileyo, bazakwehliselwa phansi lapho sebejeziswa, kutsho uThixo.
13 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagra atre'nugeno hoza zamifina ne'zana rentesige'za ne'zana ohamaregahaze. Grepi ragamo'a nofi'arera raga reontesigeno, fiki zafamo'a raga re'ontegahie. Ana nehanigeno ani'na ramimo'a harari hugahie. Nagrama zami'noa zantamimo'a zamagripintira fanane hugahaze.
Ngizabemuka isivuno sabo, kutsho uThixo. Akuyikuba lezithelo ezivinini zabo. Akuyikuba lezithelo zomkhiwa esihlahleni, lamahlamvu aso azabuna. Engibanike khona kuzathathwa kubo.’”
