1 Yizwani leli zwi, nina zinkomo zaseBashani enisentabeni yaseSamariya, enicindezela abaphansi, enichoboza abampofu, enithi emakhosini enu: “Lethani, siphuze.”
2 INkosi uJehova ifungile ubungcwele bayo ukuthi: “Bhekani, izinsuku ziyakunehlela lapho niyakususwa ngezingwegwe, nabaseleyo kini ngezindobo.
3 Niyakuphuma emifantwini, kube yilowo nalowo ngoqondene naye, nilahlwe eHermoni,” usho uJehova.
4 “Wozani eBethele, niphambeke, naseGiligali, nandise iziphambeko, nilethe imihlatshelo yenu ekuseni njalo, nokweshumi kwenu kanye ngezinsuku ezintathu,
5 nishise umnikelo wokubonga ngokuvutshelweyo, nimemezele iminikelo yesihle, niyizwakalise, ngokuba nithanda kanjalo, bantwana bakwa-Israyeli,” isho iNkosi uJehova.
6 “Mina nganinika ukuhlanzeka kwamazinyo emizini yenu yonke nokuswela isinkwa kuzo zonke izindawo zenu, kepha anibuyelanga kimi,” usho uJehova.
7 “Futhi ngagodla kini imvula, kusasele izinyanga ezintathu ukuba kuvunwe, ngalinisa phezu komunye umuzi, komunye umuzi angilinisanga; esinye isiqephu saniselwa, nesiqephu esinganiselwanga sasha.
8 Kwase kuhamba imizi emibili noma emithathu, yaya komunye umuzi ukuyophuza amanzi, kodwa ayaneliswanga; kepha nokho anibuyelanga kimi,” usho uJehova.
9 “Nganishaya ngokuhamuka nesikhutha; izivande zenu, nezivini zenu, nemikhiwane yenu, neminqumo yenu eminingi kwadliwa yisibotho, kepha nokho anibuyelanga kimi,” usho uJehova.
10 “Nganithumela isifo ngendlela yaseGibithe, ngazibulala izinsizwa zenu ngenkemba, ngathumba amahhashi enu, ngenza ukuba ukunuka kwekamu lenu kukhuphukele nasemakhaleni enu, kepha nokho anibuyelanga kimi,” usho uJehova.
11 “Nganichitha njengalokho uNkulunkulu achitha iSodoma neGomora; naninjengesikhuni esophulwe emlilweni, kepha nokho anibuyelanga kimi,” usho uJehova.
12 “Ngalokho ngiyakwenze njalo kuwe Israyeli; njengokuba ngiyakwenza lokhu kuwe, zilungiselele ukuhlangana noNkulunkulu wakho, Israyeli.”
13 Ngokuba bheka, owabumba izintaba, nowawudala umoya, otshela umuntu umqondo wakhe, owenza ukusa kube ngubumnyama, onyathela ezindaweni eziphakemeyo zomhlaba, igama lakhe linguJehova, uNkulunkulu Sebawoti.
