Ndichapamba ndigotora nechisimba, ndichasimudza ruoko rwangu kuti ndirwise matongo ogarwa navanhu uye vanhu vakaungana kubva kundudzi vakapfuma pazvipfuwo nenhumbi, vagere pakati penyika.”
13 IShebha, leDedani, labathengiselani beTarshishi, lazo zonke izilwane zayo ezintsha, kuzakuthi kuwe: Ufike yini ukuzaphanga impango? Ixuku lakho ulibuthanisele ukubamba okubanjiweyo yini, ukususa isiliva legolide, ukuthatha izifuyo lempahla, ukuphanga impango enkulu yini?

15 Khona uzakuza uvele endaweni yakho, ezinhlangothini zenyakatho, wena, labantu abanengi kanye lawe, bonke begade amabhiza, ixuku elikhulu, lebutho elilamandla.
Uchauya uchibva kunzvimbo yako iri kumusoro chaiko, iwe nendudzi zhinji dzinewe, vose vakatasva mabhiza, vanhu vazhinji, hondo ine simba.
16 Njalo uzakwenyuka umelane labantu bami uIsrayeli, njengeyezi elisibekela umhlaba. Kuzakwenzeka ekucineni kwezinsuku, ngikuse umelane lelizwe lami, ukuze izizwe zingazi, lapho ngizangcweliswa kuwe, wena Gogi, phambi kwamehlo azo.
Uchauya kuzorwa navanhu vangu vaIsraeri segore rinofukidza nyika. Mumazuva anouya, iwe Gogi, ndichakuuyisa kuzorwa nenyika yangu, kuitira kuti ndudzi dzigondiziva pandinoratidza utsvene hwangu kubudikidza newe pamberi pavo.

18 Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku mhla uGogi ezakuza ukumelana lelizwe lakoIsrayeli, itsho iNkosi uJehova, ulaka lwami luvuke ebusweni bami.
Izvi ndizvo zvichaitika pazuva iroro: Nyika yaIsraeri painorwiswa naGogi, hasha dzangu huru dzichamuka, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
19 Ngoba ebukhweleni bami lemlilweni wolaka lwami ngathi: Isibili ngalolosuku kuzakuba khona ukuzamazama okukhulu elizweni lakoIsrayeli.
Pakushingaira kwangu uye nomoto wehasha dzangu, ndinozivisa kuti panguva iyoyo pachava nokudengenyeka kukuru munyika yaIsraeri.
20 Ukuze kuthuthumele ebukhoneni bami izinhlanzi zolwandle, lenyoni zamazulu, lenyamazana zeganga, lazo zonke izinto ezihuquzelayo, ezihuquzela emhlabathini, labo bonke abantu abasebusweni bomhlaba, lezintaba zizawiselwa phansi, lamawa azawela phansi, lawo wonke umduli uwele emhlabathini.

21 Njalo ngizabiza inkemba imelane laye kuzo zonke izintaba zami, itsho iNkosi uJehova; inkemba yalowo lalowomuntu izamelana lomfowabo.
Ndichadana munondo kuzorwisa Gogi pamusoro pamakomo ose, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha. Munondo womunhu mumwe nomumwe uchabaya hama yake.
22 Futhi ngizamehlulela ngomatshayabhuqe wesifo langegazi; nginise phezu kwakhe, laphezu kwamaxuku akhe, laphezu kwezizwe ezinengi ezilaye, izulu elikhukhulayo, lamatshe esiqhotho, umlilo, lesolufa.
Ndicharanga nedenda nokudeuka kweropa; ndichanayisa mvura zhinji, nechimvuramabwe nesafuri inopfuta pamusoro pake napamusoro pamauto ake uye napamusoro pendudzi dzaanadzo.
23 Ngalokho ngizazikhulisa ngizingcwelise, ngaziwe phambi kwamehlo ezizwe ezinengi; khona bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
