| 1. | Umthwalo weBhabhiloni awubonayo uIsaya indodana kaAmozi. |
| 2. | Phakamisani uphawu entabeni eligceke, libaphakamisele ilizwi, liqhwebe ngesandla, ukuze bangene eminyango yeziphathamandla. |
| 3. | Mina ngibalayile abangcwelisiweyo bami, ngibizile lamaqhawe ami kuntukuthelo yami, abathokozayo ngobukhosi bami. |
| 4. | Ukuxokozela kwexuku ezintabeni, kungathi ngokwabantu abanengi, umsindo wokuxokozela kwemibuso, kwezizwe ezibutheneyo; i Nkosi yamabandla ibutha ibutho lempi. |
| 5. | Bavela elizweni elikhatshana, emkhawulweni wamazulu, i Nkosi kanye lezikhali zentukuthelo yayo, ukuchitha ilizwe lonke. |
| 6. | Qhinqani isililo, ngoba usuku lwe Nkosi lusondele; njengokuchitheka okuvela kuSomandla luzafika. |
| 7. | Ngenxa yalokhu izandla zonke zizaxega, lenhliziyo yonke yomuntu incibilike; |
| 8. | babesebetshaywa luvalo; imihelo lobuhlungu kubabambe; bafuthelwe njengowesifazana obelethayo; bamangale ngulowo ngomakhelwane wakhe; ubuso babo buyibuso bamalangabi. |
| 9. | Khangelani, usuku lwe Nkosi luyeza, lulesihluku lokufutheka lolaka oluvuthayo, ukubeka umhlaba ube yincithakalo; ibhubhise izoni zawo zisuke kuwo. |
| 10. | Ngoba inkanyezi zamazulu lemithala yazo kaziyikukhanyisa ukukhanya kwazo; ilanga lizakuba mnyama ekuphumeni kwalo, lenyanga kayiyikukhanyisa ukukhanya kwayo. |
| 11. | Ngoba ngizaphindisela ububi phezu komhlaba, laphezu kwabakhohlakeleyo izono zabo; ngiqede ukuzigqaja kwabazikhukhumezayo; ngithobise ukuzikhukhumeza kwabalesihluku. |
| 12. | Ngizakwenza ukuthi indoda ibe ligugu elikhulu kulegolide elicwengekileyo, lomuntu kulegolide leOfiri. |
| 13. | Ngenxa yalokhu ngizazamazamisa amazulu, lomhlaba uzanyikinyeka usuke endaweni yawo, entukuthelweni lwe Nkosi yamabandla, esukwini lokuvutha kolaka lwayo. |
| 14. | Kuzakuba njengomziki oxotshwayo, lanjengezimvu okungelamuntu oziqoqayo; bazaphenduka ngulowo lalowo ebantwini bakibo, babalekele ngulowo lalowo elizweni lakhe. |
| 15. | Wonke ozatholakala uzagwazwa, lawo wonke ozabanjwa uzakuwa ngenkemba. |
| 16. | Labantwana babo bazachotshozwa phambi kwamehlo abo, izindlu zabo ziphangwe, labomkabo badlwengulwe. |
| 17. | Khangela, ngizabavusela amaMede, angakhathaleli isiliva; legolide, angathokozi ngalo. |
| 18. | Lamadandili awo azachoboza amajaha; njalo kawayikuba lesihawu ngesithelo sesizalo; ilihlo lawo kaliyikuhawukela abantwana. |
| 19. | LeBhabhiloni, udumo lwemibuso, ubuhle bokuziqhenya kwamaKhaladiya, izakuba njengokugenqulwa nguNkulunkulu kweSodoma leGomora. |
| 20. | Kakuyikuba lendawo yokuhlala kuze kube nininini, njalo kayiyikuhlalwa kusizukulwana lesizukulwana; lomArabhiya kayikumisa ithente khona, labelusi kabayikulalisa umhlambi khona. |
| 21. | Kodwa izilo zeganga zizalala khona, lezindlu zayo zizagcwala izilo ezikhonyayo; labantwana bezintshe bazahlala khona, lamagogo aqolotshe khona. |
| 22. | Lezimpisi zizaphendulana emanxiweni ayo, lamakhanka ezigodlweni. Lesikhathi sayo siseduze ukufika, lezinsuku zayo kaziyikuphuziswa. |
