| 1. | Ngubani lo ovela eEdoma, evela eBozira egqoke izembatho ezibomvu, lo ocecileyo ngezigqoko zakhe, ehamba ngobukhulu bamandla akhe? Yimi engikhuluma ngokulunga, engilamandla okusiza. |
| 2. | Kungani izigqoko zakho zibomvu, lezembatho zakho zinjengezonyathela esikhamelweni sewayini? |
| 3. | Ngisinyathele ngedwa isikhamelo sewayini, kwakungekho loyedwa ebantwini kanye lami; ngibanyathele ekuthukutheleni kwami, ngabafihliza elakeni lwami; legazi labo lachaphakela ezembathweni zami, ngingcolisile izigqoko zami zonke. |
| 4. | Ngoba ngizimisele ukwenza usuku lwempindiselo, lomnyaka wokuhlenga abantu bami usufikile. |
| 5. | Ngakhangela, kodwa kwakungekho osizayo, ngamangala, kodwa kwakungekho osekelayo; ngakho nganqoba ngeyami ingalo, lolaka lwami lwangisekela. |
| 6. | Ngasenginyathela abantu ekuthukutheleni kwami, ngabadakisa ngolaka lwami, ngachithela igazi labo phansi. |
| 7. | Ngizalandisa ngothando lwe Nkosi, ngiyidumise, ngakho konke i Nkosi esenzele khona, lobuhle obukhulu ebenzele indlu kaIsrayeli, esenzele bona ngomusa wayo, langobukhulu bothando lwayo. |
| 8. | Yathi: Isibili bangabantu bami, bangamadodana angakhohlisiyo; yaba nguMsindisi wabo |
| 9. | ekuhluphekeni kwabo konke. Kabakhululwanga yingilosi, kodwa yabasindisa yona uqobo; ngothando lwayo langesihawu sayo yabahlenga, yabaphakamisa, yabathwala zonke izinsuku zakuqala. |
| 10. | Kodwa bayivukela, badabukisa umoya wayo ongcwele; yaphenduka yaba yisitha sabo, yalwa imelene labo. |
| 11. | Basebekhumbula insuku zakuqala zikaMozisi inceku yayo. Bathi: Ungaphi lowo owakhupha olwandle abelusi bomhlambi wakhe? Ungaphi lowo owathela uMoya wakhe oNgcwele kubo, |
| 12. | owasebenzisa amandla akhe, wenza izinto ezimangalisayo ngoMozisi, owehlukanisa amanzi phambi kwabo ukuze azenzele ibizo elingakhohlakaliyo, |
| 13. | owabadabulisa ekujuleni njengebhiza lidabula inkangala, ukuze bangakhubeki? |
| 14. | Njengezinkomo zisehlela esigodini, uMoya we Nkosi wamphumuza. Ngokunjalo wabakhokhela abantu bakho, ukuze uzenzele ibizo elilodumo. |
| 15. | Khangela phansi usemazulwini ubone, usendaweni yakho engcwele yobukhosi. Kungaphi ukutshiseka kwakho lamandla akho? Ukuvutha kwenhliziyo yakho lesihawu sakho kugodliwe. |
| 16. | Ngoba wena ungubaba, lanxa uAbrahama engasazi loIsrayeli engasivumi; wena Nkosi ungubaba, ibizo lakho lingumhlengi wethu kusukela endulo. |
| 17. | Kungani usenza siduhe ezindleleni zakho, Nkosi, wenze inhliziyo yethu ibe lukhuni ekukwesabeni? Phenduka ngenxa yenceku zakho, izizwe zelifa lakho. |
| 18. | Kungani abantu ababi besenza indlu yakho ibe yinhlekisa? Kungani izitha zethu zingcolisa indawo yakho engcwele? |
| 19. | Sinjengalabo ongazanga ubabuse, lanjengabangabizwanga ngebizo lakho. |
