1Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi,

2Nyana womntu, uhlala endlwini ezele luvukelo enamehlo okubona kodwa angaboni; baneendlebe zokuva, abeva; ngokuba bayindlu eneenkani.

3Ukuba kunjalo, nyana womntu, zilungise izinto zakho, uzibeke, uzibeke phambi kwamehlo abo emini; uyishiye indawo yakho, uye ndaweni yimbi emehlweni abo;

4Likhupheni ngoko impahla yenu phambi kwamehlo abo emini, njengento enokuthatyathwa; yaye baphume ngokuhlwa phambi kwamehlo abo njengabaphuma ekuthinjweni.

5Uyatyhoboza eludongeni emehlweni abo;

6Yithwale emagxeni akho phambi kwamehlo akho, uyikhuphe ngokuhlwa; bugqume ubuso bakho, ukuze ungaliboni ihlabathi; ngokuba ndikwenze umqondiso kwindlu kaSirayeli.

7Ndenza njengoko ndiwiselwe umthetho ngako: Ndazikhupha izinto zam emini, njengempahla yokuthinjwa, ngokuhlwa ndalugqobhoza udonga ngesandla; Ndayikhupha ngorhatya, ndayithwala egxalabeni phambi kwamehlo abo.

8Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum kusasa, lisithi:

9Nyana womntu, indlu kaSirayeli, indlu eneenkani, ayitshongo na kuwe ukuthi, Wenza ntoni na?

10Wathi kubo, Itsho iNkosi uYehova; Eli lizwi lisingisele kwisikhulu saseYerusalem nakwindlu yonke kaSirayeli ephakathi kwayo.

11Yithi, Ndisisimanga sakho; njengoko ndenze ngako, baya kwenziwa ngokunjalo; baya kumka, bathinjwe.

12Isikhulu esiphakathi kwabo siya kuyithwala ngegxalaba, sihambe ngokuhlwa; baya kulugqobhoza udonga ukuyikhupha; uya kugqubuthela ubuso bakhe, ukuze angaliboni ihlabathi ngamehlo akhe.

13Ndiya kuyiwela, ibanjiswe ngumnatha wam; Ndiya kumsa eBhabheli, ezweni lamaKaledi; noko ke, akayi kuyibona, nokuba ithe yafela khona.

14Ndiya kuchithachitha imiphefumlo yonke ngeenxa zonke kuye, kunye namaqela akhe onke; ndirhole ikrele emva kwabo;

15bazi ukuba ndinguYehova, ekubaphangalaliseni kwam ezintlangeni, ndibaphangalalisele emazweni;

16Ndoshiya amadoda ambalwa, asinde ekreleni, nasendlaleni, nasendyikityeni yokufa; ukuze bawaxele onke amasikizi abo ezintlangeni abaya kufika kuzo; zazi ukuba ndinguYehova.

17Ngaphezu koko, kwabonakala ilizwi likaYehova kum lisithi:

18Nyana womntu, sidle isonka sakho ungcangcazela, uwasele amanzi akho ungcangcazela yaye unesithukuthezi;

19Wathetha kwizizwe zehlabathi, wathi, Itsho iNkosi uYehova ngokusingisele kubemi baseYerusalem, nomhlaba wakwaSirayeli; Isonka sabo bosidla bexhalabile, bawasele amanzi abo bemangalisiwe, nelizwe lakhe libe senkangala, kuko konke okukulo, ngenxa yogonyamelo lwabo bonke abemi balo.

20Izixeko ezinabemi ziya kuphanziswa, nelizwe libe yintlango; nazi ukuba ndinguYehova.

21Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi:

22Nyana womntu, uthini na wena emhlabeni wakwaSirayeli, ukuthi, Imihla iyoluka, ubuso bonke buphela?

23Wandula ke uthi kubo, ‘Itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova; Ndiya kuyiphelisa le mizekeliso, ingabi sathetha ngayo kwaSirayeli; wathi kubo, Isondele imihla, nesiphelo sombono wonke.

24Kuba akuyi kuba sabakho buso obulambathayo okanye ukuvumisa ngenkohliso phakathi kwendlu kaSirayeli.

25Ngokuba ndinguYehova; ndiya kuthetha, nelizwi endiya kulithetha libe yinyaniso; aliyi kuba sabakho, ngokuba ngemihla yenu, ndlundini ineenkani, ndithetha ilizwi, ndilenze; itsho iNkosi uYehova.

26Laphinda labonakala ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi:

27Nyana womntu, yabona, indlu kaSirayeli ithi, Umbono awubonayo yena lo, ngowemihla emininzi; uprofetele amaxesha akude.

28Ngako oko uthi kubo, Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, Akayi kulityaziswa nalinye ilizwi lam; ilizwi endilithethileyo liya kwenzeka; itsho iNkosi uYehova.
