| 1. | Ngokusingisele koonyana baka-Amon, utsho uYehova ukuthi: USirayeli akananyana na, akanandlalifa na? Yini na ukuba ukumkani wabo amdle ilifa uGadi, abantu babo beme emizini yakhe? |
| 2. | Ngako oko, yabonani, kuza imihla, utsho uYehova, endiya kuhlaba umkhosi wemfazwe kwiRabha yoonyana baka-Amon, ibe ngumwewe wenxuwa, amagxamesi ayo atshiswe ngomlilo, uSirayeli abadle ilifa ababemdle ilifa; utsho uYehova. |
| 3. | Bhomboloza, Heshbhon, ngokuba ibhuqiwe iAyi; khalani, magxamesi aseRabha, bhinqani ezirhwexayo; mbambazelani niququzele kunye ezintangweni; ngokuba ukumkani wayo uya kuthinjwa, kunye nababingeleli bakhe nabathetheli bakhe. |
| 4. | Uqhayiselani na ngazo iintili? Intili yakho ichumile, ntombi iliphamba, yakholosayo ngobuncwane bayo, isithi, Ndiya kuzelwa ngubani na? |
| 5. | Yabona, ndiya kukuzisela unkwantyo, itsho iNkosi, uYehova wemikhosi, luphuma kwabangeenxa zonke kuwe; nigxothwe, elowo angabheki nokubheka, kungabikho ungababuthayo abaphalaphalayo. |
| 6. | Emveni koko ndiya kukubuyisa ukuthinjwa koonyana baka-Amon; utsho uYehova. |
| 7. | Ngokusingisele kuEdom, utsho uYehova wemikhosi ukuthi: Akusekho bulumko na kwaTeman? Liphelile na icebo kwiingqondi? Buphalele na ubulumko bazo? |
| 8. | Sabani, jikani, hlalani enkolontyweni, bemi bakwaDedan; ngokuba ukusindeka kwakhe uEsawu ndimzisele, ixesha lokumvelela kwam. |
| 9. | Ukuba abavuni beediliya bakufikele, abayi kushiya lubhikico; ukuba amasela eza ebusuku, aya konakalisa ade anele. |
| 10. | Ngokuba mna ndimhlubile uEsawu, ndizityhilile iindawo zakhe ezisitheleyo, angabi nako ukuzimela. Imbewu yakhe iya kubhuqwa, abazalwana bakhe nabamelwane bakhe abakho. |
| 11. | Shiya iinkedama zakho; ndiya kuziphilisa, bakholose ngam abahlolokazi bakho. |
| 12. | Ngokuba utsho uYehova ukuthi, Yabona, ababengenalungelo lakuyisela indebe, inene baya kuyisela; wena ke ungoya kuba msulwa, ube msulwa na? Akuyi kuba msulwa, ngokuba inene uya kusela. |
| 13. | Ngokuba ndizifungile mna, utsho uYehova, ndathi, IBhotsera iya kuba ngummangaliso, nesingcikivo, nenxuwa, nentshabhiso; nemizi yayo yonke ibe ngamanxuwa angunaphakade. |
| 14. | Ndive udaba luphuma kuYehova, kuthunywe isigidimi ezintlangeni sokuthi, Zihlanganiseni, nimfikele, nisuke nilwe. |
| 15. | Ngokuba, uyabona, ndikwenze wamncinane ezintlangeni, wadeleka phakathi kwezizwe. |
| 16. | Ukududuzelisa kwakho kukulukuhlile, ukukhukhumala kwentliziyo yakho, wena uhleli ezimfanteni zengxondorha, wena ubambe intlomo yenduli. Ngokuba uthe wayakhela phezulu njengexhalanga indlu yakho, ndokuthoba apho; utsho uYehova. |
| 17. | Uya kuba ngummangaliso uEdom; bonke abadlula kuye baya kumangaliswa, benze umsondlo, ngenxa yokubethwa kwakhe konke. |
| 18. | Njengoko kwabanjalo ekubhukuqekeni kweSodom neGomora nemimelwane yayo, utsho uYehova, akuyi kuhlala mntu khona, akuyi kuphambukela nyana womntu khona. |
| 19. | Yabona, utshaba luya kunyuka njengengonyama ephuma ekweneni kweYordan, luye ekhayani eliyingxondorha; ngokuba ndiya kumgxotha ngephanyazo kulo; osukuba enyuliwe, ndimenzele umveleli; ngokuba ngubani na onjengam? ngubani na oya kundimema? ngubani na loo malusi uya kuma phambi kwam? |
| 20. | Ngako oko yivani icebo likaYehova, alicebileyo ngoEdom, neengcinga zakhe, azicingileyo ngabemi bakwaTeman; inene, baya kuzikrwiqiliza ezincinane zomhlambi; inene, liya kumangaliswa zizo ikriwa lazo. |
| 21. | Ihlabathi liyanyikima sisithonga sokuwa kwabo; isandi sokukhala kwabo sivakala eLwandle oluBomvu. |
| 22. | Yabona, utshaba luyanyuka njengexhalanga, lutshwebeleza, luwolule amaphiko alo phezu kweBhotsera; intliziyo yamagorha ekwaEdom ngaloo mini iya kuba njengentliziyo yomfazi onenimba. |
| 23. | Ngokusingisele kwiDamasko: Ihlazekile iHamati neArpadi; ngokuba kuviwe iindaba ezimbi; bancamile; njengaselwandle, banesithukuthezi, abanako ukuzola. |
| 24. | IDamasko ithe dakumba, ijikile yasaba; ifikelwe kukothuka, ibanjwe yimbandezelo nayinimba njengozalayo. |
| 25. | Hayi, ukushiywa komzi wendumiso, umzi wemihlali yam! |
| 26. | Ngako oko aya kuwa amadodana ayo ezitratweni zawo, amadoda onke okulwa athi shwaka ngaloo mini; utsho uYehova wemikhosi. |
| 27. | Ndiya kuphemba umlilo eludongeni lweDamasko, udle iingxande ezinde zikaBhen-hadade. |
| 28. | Ngokusingisele kumaKedare, nakwizikumkani zaseHatsore, awazibulalayo uNebhukadenetsare ukumkani waseBhabheli, utsho uYehova ukuthi: Sukani nime, nyukani niye kumaKedare, nibabhuqe abasempumalanga. |
| 29. | Iintente zabo nemihlambi yabo boyithabatha; namalengalenga abo, neempahla zabo zonke, neenkamela zabo, bozisusa zibe zezabo; bamemeze kubo, bathi, Kukunxunguphala ngeenxa zonke. |
| 30. | Sabani, balekani kakhulu, hlalani enkolontyweni, bemi baseHatsore, utsho uYehova; ngokuba uNebhukadenetsare ukumkani waseBhabheli ecebe icebo ngani, wacinga ingcinga ngani. |
| 31. | Sukani nime, nyukani niye kuhlanga oluchulumachileyo, oluhleli lukholosile, utsho uYehova; uhlanga olungenazingcango namivalo, oluhleli lodwa. |
| 32. | Iinkamela zabo maziphangwe, ingxokolo yemfuyo yabo ibe ngamaxhoba, ndibachithachithe kwimimoya yonke onquthula-iinwele, ndibazisele ukusindeka, kuphuma kumacala onke; utsho uYehova. |
| 33. | IHatsore iya kuba sisikhundla seempungutye, kube senkangala kude kuse ephakadeni. Akuyi kuhlala bani khona, kungaphambukeli nyana womntu khona. |
| 34. | Into eyafikayo kuYeremiya umprofeti, ililizwi likaYehova ngokusingisele kwelakwaElam ekuqaleni kobukumkani bukaZedekiya ukumkani wakwaYuda, yayisithi: |
| 35. | Utsho uYehova wemikhosi ukuthi, Yabonani, ndiyasaphula isaphetha sakwaElam, intlahlela yobugorha babo; |
| 36. | ndiya kulizisela elakwaElam imimoya emine ephuma eziphelweni ezine zezulu, ndibachithachithe kuloo mimoya yonke, kungabikho luhlanga bangayi kufika kulo abaziindlodlo zakwaElam. |
| 37. | Ndomqhiphukisa umbilini uElam phambi kweentshaba zakhe, naphambi kwabafuna imiphefumlo yabo; ndibazisele ububi, ukuvutha komsindo wam; utsho uYehova. Ndothuma emva kwabo ikrele, ndide ndibagqibe, |
| 38. | Ndiya kumisa itrone yam kwaElam, ndimtshabalalise khona ukumkani nabathetheli; utsho uYehova. |
| 39. | Kuya kuthi ke ekupheleni kwemihla, ndikubuyise ukuthinjwa kukaElam; utsho uYehova. |
